D AILY PRESS. I PORTLAND. I MONDAY, OCTOBER lfi, 1871. Me Presidential Neminnlieu by Bono crate. S macioU9 Democrats, pereeivinc that in Josi ug the October elections they have lost e\" erytliing, abandon the idea oi nominating a can ddate lor the Presidency. Their policy is to induce the Conservative wing of the Re pUi.l'caD party to make an indepencent uom toi' ion in opposition to Grant, they hope to ihis way to obtain all that would come to Shan from a triumph ot their own party, n’ly sacrificing their pride by an abandon kr nt of the party name. The plan is not a to I one. Theoretically, indeed, it is perfect. But tfipre is likely to be some little friction Be si-loped in carrying it out. For instance, the movement depends for its success or willi fii awing from the support of the regular Re publican party enough conservative members U constitute a majority when united with the D.'uroeiats. Can they he withdrawn? Is ti de anything in the past history of the American people that authorizes us to sup pose that they are so unintelligent as not to p Tcoive Instantly that this would be a Demo Ciatic movement, in everything but name, Bi d that its tiinmph would be a Democratic ti iiiniph Some man, like Gov. Brown of hi issouri, supported by Carl Schurz, and pos- I •ibly by Senator Trumbull and other conser vative Republicans, would be nominal leaders In (he enterprise. But it would be initiated by Democrats, supported by Democrats, and. 11 at all, made a triumph by Democrats. In •f'ii ed aud carried through by the opponents •t the Republican party the scheme, if suc •essiul, would place the government in the hands of those whose genius hit upon the lucky plan and whose adroitness and courage w ide triumph possible. The Democracy would he restored to power with Brown or Trumbull or Adams admitted to a partner in me iui luuaio apccuiauuu. The utter aud irremediable failure of tbe •“new departure” scheme ought to have taught the Democracy the futility of a change of uatne or a nomiua! change of prncipics that is not accompanied by the corresponding thing. Of what avail was the ostentatious acceptance ol the Constitutional amendments, vvheu the Notheru Bouibons were repudiat ing in private conversation and even ia local caucuses what they had solemnly affirmed in Conventions, and while the more practical houtberu Bourbons were rapidly reducing the Republican vote in their viciuity by systemat ic assassinations? Of what avail will it be lor these aitful persons to call themselves Re publicans, aud induce B. Gratz Brown or Sen utor Trumbuil or Charles Francis Adams to accept their votes lor President, so long as they cherish their old heresies more or less openly and continue their old bad practices 'We predict with great confidence that the failure of Vallandigbaiu’s ingenious patent this year will seem comparatively a success after tue abject and pitiful breakdown oi this “newest departure” next year. A volume is now iu course of preparation containing what each American poet consid ers his best verses. The idea is a happy one. Ills well-known that Milton always contend ed that "Paradise Regained” is superio” to “PaiaUise Dost” and that Goethe preferred the second poet of ‘Taust” which nobody leads. If ail poets are as erratic in judging the relative merit of their own works the book w ill be a curious one. ft-wli local Notes Iovra gave more than loity thousand Ke publican majority last Tuesday. Tbe Maine btanuai d attributes tjiis success to the use of ‘corruption money.” The iuud must indeed .be large. The Bangor Democrat exults with intense enthusiasm over the tact that the late New York Democratic convention ignored the new depat tare. The Democrat attributes al i the late reverses ot the party to that attempted departure, and quotes Snakspeare’s allusion to the “glorious sun of York.” It is rumored that Thomas Murphy is about to leavq voluntarily the positiou ot collector of customs iu New York. For the credit of the Republican party we hope the rumor is true. Letter from Chicago. GRAPHIC DESCRIPTION OF THE DESOLATION. Lake Fobkst, Oct. 9,1871. To the Editor qf the Press: You have learned ere Ibis that Chicago is iu ruins. Tbe proud city that closed ber temples of worship last evening and bad gone to rest, boasting cf tbe morrow’s scheme? of business and pleasure, is silting to-nigbt iu sackcloth and ashes, with tbe lurid glow of tbe still un exiinguisbed fires flaming high aud far, upon tbe evening sky, distinctly seen at tbe distance ol my writing, nearly thirty miles aw_y. I have just returned from the sesue of tbe I fiery carnival. No pen—no canvas—can give you an adiquate idea of tbe vast desolation. Tbe scenes of tbe Portland fire, six years ago, Were a min'atnre ot this. Multiply that twen ty told, and you may torru some idea of its ieariulnees; the majesty of its sweep, the com pleteness of its destruction, its resulting deso lations, its distresses experienced, its crushing oi business enierprise, and tbe reign of terror, murder and robbery inaugurated iu a day. Tbe telegraph will have filied jour columns wiib its terrible details, before this can reach you. Your readers will have learned that tbe elegaut Court Bouse, county aud city build ings, the Postcfflce and United States Court rooms, all the hotels, all tbe printing bouses, all tLe banks, most of the churches, all ot tbe leading warehouses, elevators, theatres ana museums, besides hundreds ot magnificent private residences with their sumptuous fur nishings, have goue down, or are now falling before the vengeful flames. Tbe drought which bas prevailed so long in this region, had prepared tbe city lor this “short, sharp and decisive’’.work of tbe fire king, so that even the solid buiidings of this best part ot tbe city, many of .tbem regarded as flre-Droof. melted before the furnace heat, like boar-frost in the sun. The clouds gathered this afternoon with the promise of heavy raiu. Only a few drops fell,as if iu mockery of our prayers. The heated atmosphere penetrated and scattered the clouds and our hopes together. Should the wind chauge its direction, and "blow from the Lake, “West side” will be swept away with the ■ame destruction. Some of the outside aspects of this scene, as witnessed Irom the railway train, were sad enough, with small touches of the ludicrous to xelieve. On all the highways diverging from the city, country ward, were streams of the es caping populace, “some with rags and some with bags”—some ip rarraiges and some on foot. Every sort of vehicle was pressed into the service, and every sort of load piled upon the teams. In the haste of departure, most of the drivers had evidently not stopped to select their most valuable goods, and some wagoDs were sadly empiy,considering how much service they might have rendered. On the open Helds Out of the city, were piled immense masses ot furniture, bedding and whatnot, and with each ma-B the poor owners; who sat disconsolate be side these rescued remnants ol their,house keep ing treasures;aud iu tbeirweiriness and stupor are doubtless, many of them, sitting now, un der this night’s fearful canopy, no light of moon or stars looks down upon their cheerless bivouac in tQfe fields;—overhung with clouds i Sr smoke and flame. All the outward bonud trains were crowded with citizens flying to the country for a shel- ter, and the inward bound with people of every j description, auxious to get a glimpse of the 1 terrific conflagration. While I write the wind is again rising and no rain falls. God have mercy upon the sufferers. __E_ P. W. Death of an Ugly Elephant. The “Great Mogul” elephant died on Wednesday a little below Derby, Conn. He was 52 years old, aDd the poundings, burnings and shoot- 1 ings wnich be had been obliged to endure of 1 late bad convinced him that he was a conun dram, ao ha laid down and gave it up. j Commodore VANDERBtLT, who is worth teu or twenty million dollars, is censured with j great severity by some of the New York pa- 1 per* because he gives nothing for the relief of 0 the Chicago sufferers. He is as bad as Queen Victoria._ Brick and Iron alone are to be used in re- l building the hotels, store* and public buildiuas r In Chicago. The Sherman House i# to be rc- stored to more than its former splendor, it be ing proposed to make it second to no hotel in the country. All the cities and villages of California are ti JibcraUy raising funds for Chicago. t( The fkilualioti iu Chicngo. The World's despatch ol Saturday states tlia^ be scenes of sufferings and want uiet in a tour if the city beggars description. Burned bod es are seen, and at the Coroner’s offices are ■ousted bodies of meD, women and children, inrecognized atd uuknown, piled one upon .lie other and awaiting recognition. There is lot the faintest clue to auy one of the bodies ;liat will lead their frieuds to positively know yho they are and so they must be buried. The :ity papers that have been resuscitated Irani he ashes report as many as two hundred bod es recovered from the fire. Unless it is known Jositively who perished in the fire, it will be mpossihle to determine from recognition.— rhere are seventy bodies reported in the barn at the city undertaker on Hubbard street. The arrival of troops is hailed with general satisfaction and to-uight the burned districts are lull of them, some ou guard, squads march ing to aud iro and orderlies galloping from point to point. Mayor Masou turned over«he city to General Sheridan this moruiDg and we are to all intents and purposes under martial law. DuriDg the night shots were frequently beaid indicating the summary execution of thieves and incendiaries. Roughs wifi fiud it to their personal safety if they will give Chica go a very wide berth at present. The citizens are hitter against Ihese harpies and suspicion IS equal to a death wanaut. Incendiaries par ieuiarly meet with swift retribution. Th s al teruoon some women delected a youqg man about 23 years old iu the act ot firing a house ou the west side, and a party ol men took him ui the nearest teiegraph pole and hung him with a telegraph wire. On State street this evening, when au alarm ol fire was giv- u, two firemen rushed to the house, No. 4fi8, and emerged with a woman whom they caught set tiug fire to a strayy bed tick. It was iust as much as they could do to save her from the vengeance ot the infuriated crowd. The people who fled to Lincoln Park are But tering terribly. From 50.U00 the number has swelled to 75,000. Those who were in the va cant lots near Division street have gone up to il e Park and the scene now presented is be yond the power ot words to describe. Every one is demoralized. Hundreds are lying on pallets of straw, having beeu hastily aroused from sick beds to save their lives. How many perished iu the vain attempt to save them selves will probably never be known. There have beeu five deaths and eight births iu Lin coln Park in iwentv-four hours.

Gossip fixes this as about tbe time that “tbe popular and able Secretary of tbe Navy” will lead the beautiful and accamplisbed Miss Au lick to the matrimonial altar” for which Robe son is esteemed a lucky fellow. Damage to the Railroads.—The Lewis ton Journal saysoothe Lewiston division of the Maine Central there is a fearful “sink” of tbe track tor nearly 800 feet at tbe Meadow,this side of Greene depot—the point where so much d'ffieu.ty was experienced when tbe road was built. There is also a bad break just beyond Greene depot, said to be 300 feet loug and sev eral feet deep. Eighty feet of trestle work fif teen feet high have been ordered. There is a faint bo| e that tbe trains will be able to pass to Walerville Saturday afternoon by carrying around tbe long break. No train has passed over tbe road from this place to Waterville since Wednesday. Tbe Androscoggin seems also to have suffer ed severely. The protection wall by the An droscoggin Mill was uudermined so as to cave in, damaging tbe road considerably. At Crow ley’s two bridges were carried ofl, and tbe bridge across tbe Little River at Lisbon, was also carried off. At Sabattis a washout oc curred, and two bridges are said to have been carried ofl between there and Livermore Falls. No train has passed over this road since Tbureday morning, but it is expected the road will be repaired so as to have trains pass on Ssturday. Shocking Suicide of an Old Woman.—Od Wednesday, Mrs. Parish, residing in St. Louis, committed suicide by cutting out her bowels, and severing them after they were out. This was doue with an old dull butcher kuife. She was in her ninetieth year, and considering there can be no cause assigned for the dretdfui act but the oppression ot old age, it is certainly a very remarkable case. New Hampshire Items.—The Portsmouth, Great Falls and Conway Railroad is now com pleted to West Ossipee. The shoe factories of Farmington manufac tured and shipped during the month of Sep tember, 117,148 pairs of shoej; of which 49,000 were manufactured in the shops of A. Nute and E. F.

Our Skowliegau correspondent under date of Thursday, says: This moruing about half past six o’clock smoke was discovered coming irom the building formerly occupied by A. H. Fletcher as a potato depot, now occupied by H. O. Beal for the same purpose and as a store house, the lower story being packed with plas ter. The lower story became flooded bv the great raiu of the night. The result was a great deal of smoke and a very 1-ttle fire. The eu gines-were soon on the ground, and with the raiu succeeded in makiug a huge pen of mor ter. Loss to the budding very slight. The rain was pouring at the time, so that it was rather an unfavorable dav for a fire on a large scale. The Skowliegau Reporter says New Port land held an exc:ted town meeting at New Portland Falls last Saturday. The principal at tide iu the wirrant was to see if the towu would vote to pay back to soldiers their com mutation money aud money paid for substi tutes. The question called out between two and three hundred of the voters of the towu. The vote stood 34 lor paying, and 154 against it. WASHINGTON COUNTY. The Directors of the St. Croix and Penobscot and Railroad Company have ordered the com pletion, this fall, or a survey of the line from Princeton to Grand Lake Stream, at which lit ter point Messrs.

Af ter the comple ion of the survey, aud au esti mate of the cost of the construction of the road is made aud has been submitted to the stock holders and approved by them, an earnest effort will be made to build the road to tue Stream b.V next autumn. The distance from the Stream to Passamaquoddy is only 24 miles, and this gap will be then filled. WALDO COUNTY.

This derangement produces deficient nutiitiou and assimilation. By assimi'a tion I mean toat process by which the nutriment 01 the lood is converted into blood, and thence into the solids of the body. Persons with digestion thus im paired, having the slightest predisp sition to ;ul monary disease, or it they take ccld, will be very li able to have Consumption o: the Lungs iu seme ot its forms; and 1 hold that it wid be impossible to cure any as 30 consumption witi.oul first restoring a good digestion and beaLhy assimila ion. 'ihe very first thing to be done is to cleanse the stoma- li and bowe’s from all diseased mucus and slime which is logging lhese organs *o that ihiy cannot perform their lunc tions, and then rouse up anu restore Ihe liver to a healthy action For this purpose, tbe surest and best remedy is Schenck’s Mandrake Pilis These Pills cleanse the stomach and noweis 01 all the dead *,nd morbid slime lhax is causing disease aud ueray in ihe whole 838 em. They will clear out the liver ol all diseased bile that has accumulated tlure. and arouse it up to a new and boa ty action, by which natmal anu healthy bile is secreted. The 8tomacik,bowels and liver ate thus cleaused by the use ot Sell nek's Mandrake Pills; but there re mains in the stomach >in excess ot acid, the organ is torpid, and the appetite is poor. In tbe bowels,the lacicals are weak, and require strength and support. II is in a condition like this that lienck’s Seaweed i onic proves to t.e the most valuable remedy ever discovered, n is alkaline, and iis use wil. neutralize ail excess ol acid, making tbe s oniach sweet anu iresh; it will give peimanent loneto tnis impo tant organ, and create a good, hearty appetite, and pre paretbe system for tbe tiist process ot a good digest ion aud ultima ely make good, bealihy, living blood.— Aitcr ibis preparatory treatment, what remains io euro mo.-t cases ot Consumpiion is the tree and per severing use ot Scnenca’s Pu-monic Svtup. The Pulmonic Syrup douj is lies ihe system, punfies ttie blood, and is readily absorb d into the circulation, and them e distributed to ibe diseased .ungs there it ripens a'l morbid matters, whether in the tbrm#dl sbs» es.ses or libert ies, and then assists Nature to expel a1! Ihe dis- used matter iu the :orm of free m peetoiation, woen once it ripens. It is then, by the gr«ai healing and puihying properties or Schenck’s Pulmonic Syiup, iliat all ulcers and cavities are In al ed up sound and my patient is cured. J he essential thing to be none iu curing Consump tion is io get up a good apptcite aud a good digestion so that tbe body will grow in flesh and gee strong.— If a person has diseased lung*, a cavity or abscess there, the cavity cannot heal, tl e mailer cannot rip en, so long as uie system is bdow par. Wha1 is nec essaiy to cure is a new order oi things, a good appe tnc,. good nutrition, he body to grow in flesh and get fat; then Nu ure is h Iped, the cavities will heal, the ma ter wiil ripen and be thrown oti n Urge quail titles, aud the person regain health and .-trength. This is the tiue and only plan to cure Consumption, and if a person s very bad, it the lungs aie not en tirely destroyed, or eveu it one lung is entirely gone, it there is enough vitality leit in the other to heal up there is hope. 1 have seen many persons cured with only one sou d lung, live and enjav life to a good old age.— 1 his is what Sclienck’s medicines will do to cure Consumption. J hey will mean out the stomach, sweeteu and strengthen it, get up a go id d gestiar, and give Natuie ihe ast-i^auwe she needs to clear the sys em ot all the disease that is in the lungs, what ever Ihe form miy be. It is important mat,, while using Schenck’s medi cines, tare should be exercised not to take co'd; keep 111- joors in P.n/»1 !ind ihrnn nmntl.. .1 1.. ..5. and take out-door exercise only m a genial ana waim sunshine 1 Wish it distinctly understood oat when 1 recom mend a patient to be carelul in regard to taking cold wide using my medicine.
