DAILY PRESS., rOUTLAA^ MONDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1871. ~~f5VEitr Repub1 ‘c-‘n r iu Maiue favors tlic renomiuation of Gen. Grant. The latest claim set up by the friends of the Ku-Ivlux is that it is simply a social or" ganization. The idea is doubtless a little novel to us; but riding about the country at midnight dressed in a long gown, aimed wilh a revolver, or running the risk oi being tried and shot lor disclosing the secrets of a meet ing held in the heart of a dense forest or hunt ing miserable radicals at night, shooting some and thrashing ethers may exactly fill their idea of the highest social enjoyment; yet there are those that don’t agree with these hearty and cheerful midnight marauders to such au extent that they become ecstatic un der a hundred lashes on the bare back oi ex pect every night to enjoy the exhilaration of a bullet through the head. Timid people would much prefer the sociability of ike Arkansas traveller, who demonstiated it by wiping his fefet on his host’s best coat and spilling to bacco juice over the dinner table. Wenpell Phillips is generally held to be an amateur rather than a professional labor ing man. But he claims that he bemngs cl right lo the laborers’ guild. It is a good sign of ptogress when men came to boast of such connections instead of flaunting their geneal ogies in peoples’ faces. Mr. Phillips, in reply ing to an attack by Mr. Hazewell, the histori cal, statistical, eiieylopedie man of the Bos ton Traveller,whom he lacetiously calls Dry asdust-’as Carlyle might, says: 1 think Dryasdust, when he wrote that par enlhe'ical sneer quoted above, lelt painfully the ignorance which he confesses ol clam dig girg and such like. Now it was always lavorite of mine—that clam digging. 1 bavi in my day dug more clams than Dryasdus ever made mistakes in criticism, vast as tka claim seems,—and with all soitsof hoes toi —palent ones ami those improvised lor lilt occasion; even a big clam-shell. Indeed there is hardly any ordinary trade or kind of manual labor, used in New Eng laud, at wliicu l have not done mauy a day’: wolk. Probably 1 have done more inunua labor in any one month ol either of my lo-ty five vears Ilian Dryasdust basin any twelve months of even his ear'y and comparatively liaimless years, before he :niotheied hicsseli ill iuiuatiiv.i ■“‘.yv,. u ebi:dien was, "Ask no mau to do for you anything you ate uot able and willing to do yourself.” Political Notes. The Rockland Gazette is of the opinion that the "Labor Reform movement,” started in this city, is futile. It thinks that “intelli gence will give the greatest value to labor ant secure the surest protection to the working man’s interest.” Tue Belfast Age, commenting on the Ne? York election, finds great comloft in the re suit. It says that the "time lias not yet ctm v,'ben the people can be corrupted; and n parly chains can be forged strong enough t prevent their aeiiug in unity when the we fare ol the nation is imperilled.” isn’t the Maine Standard rather wastin its space by indulging in such wholesale di nuneiatioa of Geu. Grant? The people fourteen of the largest States in Union hay recently declared by means of the ballot, tin they utterly discredit the ioohsh report thi he is a venal, imbecile thief. The Standari with such resources as it has, will have hai work to reverse that decision. Howthe President Feels.—TlieSprinj fieri Republican, almost the only Republica paper in New England that opposes Grant renomination, allows ils Washington eorref pondent to discourse as follows: It is natural enough that the Presiden should Lei jus*, a little elated with the receu successes of liis party; not that tlieie is any thiug peisonal in thein, yet alter all he is ti profit by them immensely. If there wer formidable rivals for the nomination, b might tear the incieased strength of his par ty; hut when only such men as Mr. Greeley Senator Lcgan, Senator Trumbull or Senate Sumner are mentioned as possible ccinpeti tors, he is not afiaid ttiat the party will fee strong enough to fling him over. But Gen Graut is not iu a deliaut mood. Hi- ro-og-h mmes° 'afviser!’ an will make- upon that class of Repub cans WOO. last writer, declined to support hi Domingo scheme. His policy no to win the support of all bonorabf _Republicans. Such at least is the assertio of some of his intimate friends hen They say be will recommend dec.ded'relorm in the civil service, and that he will let Sai Domingo drift for the present. There ar rumois, too, ol conciliation in New York Murphy may voluntarily give up his place,or h mav fifin-HlU f.O SlllotV liW.tnn onH nriml.. name some ot the prominent officers in tit custom house so that there shall be amp! security for an efficient man gement. X short, the president is iu good humor, and h is not inclined to interpret the elections in ■way to render him odious tolhose republicau who are opposed to him. If I am rightly in formed in this regard, his policy is to be etn ineptly a a sagacious one—that is, conciliator} and generous, at least till alter the election Senator Coukling lias a hand, I suspect, ir shaping the course of the president this win ter, and with ail his faults, Mr. Oonktiug is a mau of great abilities. He is infinitely supe rior te Mr. Feutou, not only iu ability hut in moral character. Among republicans here Ihere is hardly a peep of dissent to the re-nomination ot Gen. Grant; hut iu Washington we leei the powei ol ail administration keenly, and we caunol judge of the feeling of the people on such a subject. But unless there is a remarkable change in opinion Gen. Giant will be renom inated by the national convention. The democrats saj so, and in such matters they can sometimes judge better of the lorce ol public opinion than we can ourselves. An ’Unable follower. Your correspondent, “Q,” has thrown liltn selt into the defence of the Maine Central Kailtoad, not in behalt of that corporation, but for himself alone, that it might he defend ed from unreasonable attacks made iu the supposed (but not real) interest of Portland. in these selfish and degenerate days, such an exhibition of the love of justice purely lor its own sake, in Ihe cause of an oppressed railroad against an oppressive people, is as re ft eshing as it is rare. Philanthropists and reformers, gushing wiLh affection for distressed oiders, or elasses or organizations ol men, have not unfrequently been harsh and severe towards individuals. And so it should be no cause of surprise if in this case l fiud myself accused, not only of “mis statements,” hut of having made them “recKlessly.” In his former article this writer complained that I had made certain allega tions or charges without book, suggesting that it I ha i read the Idlest advertisement of the Maine Central Railroad Co. I should not have made them. Now, it is simply because I had read that advertisement and took it for granted that I could rely upon it. that I lUe statements referred to. I went to first for mj information, and if I have stated any thing “recklessly” it is only thatthiug which I gave upon the exclusive authority of the ‘nook” which the corporation had put into my hands for my information. I gave the facts as they gave them to us with positive aud exact accuracy. It should be no cause ol centure in tbelr behalf that I went to their published notice and accepted it as (rue.

On the other band I maintain that the Legislature has no iigbt to charter a road with this view, or to 1 ns end’mpivly. it is only because railroads are supposed to te of public utility as well as of private emo'ument, that the Legislature is authorized to create them. Private propeity can never be take,,, it for raj| P cept lor the public good. lf a raiiroad ron mg two trains a day earns less money than one which runs but a single train, yet if bv running two it, upon the whole, yields a rea sonable profit, and makes fair dividend it ought to run two, if thereby the public con venience is promoted, 0 I> c Compulsory Kiduration. THE RIGHT OF THE STATE TO ENFORCE IT. There is no better omen for Maine than the interest evinced in the discussion of this subject. Other reforms arc important, hut this takes precedence of all. No effort should be spared to make our people temperate, hon est, piospcrous and happy, but they must be intelligent before they can be secure in either of these blessings. Our common schools are not in so good a condition as they ought to be, and only halt of the pupils attend such schools as we have! Compulsory education seems to be the only practical mea..s ot res toring our boasted school system to its former efficiency. An able writer in the Maiue Far mer discusses the question of the right of the State to enforce attendance on the schools in a forcible manner. We quote: Iu the first place we would remark that this mlit rests on the same grounds as the right, to lay taxes for the purpose ot providing the means of education. If the State may uke the money of Brown to maintain schools lor the instruction ot Jones’s children, it may also insist that Jones’s children shall come to receive the instruction thus provided. To suppose the former right to exist wi'hout th& latter, would be contrary to commoa sense. Tnere' are not wanting, to he sute, phiioso pliers who deny the existence of either, but as we have practically recognized It as the duty of the State to maintain free schools for pub lic instruction we shall be quite inconsistent it we deny the supplementary right of com pelling the attendance ot those for whom the instruction is designed, whenever the necessi ty of compulsion ex sts. Again, me Slate nas always exercised the right ol protecting the child from abuse by the parent. The parent may not starve or maim or otherwise maltreat his offspring It is reasonable to grant him the right to deprive them ot the means ot culture, such as will fit them tor the duties of life? Is the intellect jt so little importance in comparison with the boby of the child that the strong arm ot the law may iuterlere to prevent the parent from injuring the latter, while it must leave him freetostaive and stint the former at his will? Shall we not rather say that it is the most imperative duty of the State toward the child to see that it is not defrauded by Us sel fish or ignorant parents ol its (air share of in tellectual culture. The parent is the natural guardian of ilie child, and will, it is presumed, prove a faithful guardian; hut in how many instances, Known u> each one of our readers, does the presumption fail? How often does he saetifice all the interests intrusted to his charge to his own selfish purposes? I.mlcwl In .lw>... ,1... 1. o-- --o eminent to require military service ou juries and in aiding tlie officers ot the law. Can it h“ a less essential power of government to in sist on such a training ol youth as to fit them lor an intelligent performance of ad their du ties toward the State? It is generally conceeded by intelligent per sons that popular ignorance, if not the source trorn whence spring the gravest dangers that thieaten the salety and well being of society* is at least the congenial soil in which they take ready root, and make tank growth. Sure ly. as a means of precaution! against these dangers the State way insist on the disper sion of ignorance. Yankee Note Shavers.—The Portland Press is disgusted to find that in one of the most flourishing vil'agei of Maine, containing hut 2000 iuhabiia ,ts, there are twenty five men among whom are some ot the wealthiest in the town, the greater part having considerable sums of money, yet but few of whom have no visible meins ol support, and are practically loafers. They have deserted the class of pro ducers and live by shaving notes and by other little speculations more profitable probably y than respectabio. The indignation of the Press is not without reason. Twenty-five note shav h ers ia a population of 2006. is a pretty large if percemage; and this, the same authority says, e is not a single instance, every village in the State of the same sire as the one referred ta f presenting a somewhat similar example. This it is Dot a good show for total abstinence Maine and is probably considered by the vanquished S rum-sellers as the natural effect of the law o d compensation-that human nature is hound tc have a certain amount of sin, and if it be re pressed in oue way it will develop iu another and may furnish the conundrum lor the politi cal economists—whether twemy-five run n shops would be more detrimental to a com s m unity of 2000 than the same number of note shavers. The fate of any one wbo has unfor (unately become entangled in the net of eitbei is do* te be envied—his destruction is simply a question ol time in the majority of cases.— 1 Commercial Advertiser. It may be doubted if the Commercial in New i York, where they have such magnificent spec i imens not only ol note shavers, bat thieves at Jim Fiske, Daniel Drew and Boss Tweed and numberless gin mills of high and low degree, it best qualified to solve the conundrum that il has proposed. There ia no question about il 1 here; we accept the note-Bhavers, or as we pal iti the men who have a little money whicl WLI- --—i— j aie ignoiaut of the processes that the introduc tion ot manufacturing enterprises have render g ed necessary to success. v Maine is in a transition state incident to i new policy and the general introduction o l new enterprises a tip the abandonment of ole industries; consequently hundreds ol men o moderate means are waiting for" the want o j that knowledge and skill that it is expectet the younger m“n will have. A HiilDiian’i View of lbs Mailer. “w. a.” TO THE RESCUE. i To the Editor of the Press i My sympathizers ate alwiTS with the under dog in a tight, and why should they not he wiih a friend whea set upon by newspaper corres pondents,when the head and front of his offend ing is simply saying that Mr. Morgan troze to death in an old shanty. Perhaps “froze” was not the best word to u«e, but if he did not freeze it was because there was not moisture enough in hie shrunken frame to chrystalize. That he perished by cold, very few doubt. My impression is that if he had had afire to warm him, when be last went to his lonely room, he would base been alive now. The chi.I in his extremities gradually extended to hisvUals and tbe frello circulation stopped en tirely. ’Til said he had fuel, hut is it strauge that he should be saving of it when he lacked tbe means t» purchase more? As to the definition of the term “shanty,” individuals may differ. Judge Goddard seems to think that his room was very comfortable, but my recollection of it is that it was rather open for cold weather, and this is confirmed by the coroner who, allhough doubling your assertion, said to me without asking,'hat when he was called to take charge of the body and room the pails of water within had a thin coating ol ice ou i hem. But tbe room is still to be seen by those who choose to investigate. That tbe old man sojnetimes went hungry is proved by a lady of my acquaintance wbo lives near tbe city. He often called on her and spent the day. She tells me that on his last visit he asked for food immediately, which she novel know him to do before. That he was poor is manifest from the sale of all his effects, furniture, cooking utensils and wearing apparel, which produced less than 010. On my last call at his room I found him sit ting on the side of bis scanty bed mending his nether garments, in his shirt, wifh bare feet and legs, for tbe want of a change to put on. He spoke feelingly of his poverty, his losses by tire and the unproductiveness of his mven t'ons and literary labors, which had cost him a life time of toil aud study, saying aith a sigh, 1 am hut a beggar.” The room, bis figure aud words weuld open the heart a miser. 1 am sure my benevolent feelings were fully equal to my purse. I said:—“Your Masonic friends assist you, do they not?” His reply was:—“Yes, when no one else will.” Iam pleased to see by your paper of to-day that he afterwards in conversation with you bore emphatic testimony to their generosity. Hon. F. O. Smith, in yesterday’s Argus, expresses a doubt of tbe truth of your state wmjnaiucu ui iue an uoyance of bad boys, who threw snowballs, pebbles and the I ke at bis low windows, but be may dismiss bis doubts, as it was a matter of newspaper notoriety. Bespoke tc me of it, and also requested his neighbor Blake to ebase them away, they having broken his win dow. It is creditable to Mr. Smith that he gave Mr. Morgan a room, rent free, when non* other offered. Mr. Smith complains of his associates of the Bar for neglecting Mr. Morgan in his poverty, wheD alive, but sajs:-“They heard the trum pet of dutj sounded by the voice of death, and took his cold form into their kindly smbrace an lonored bis memory as one worthy of »ood aQd love‘” Mr- Smith is they neglec^Jdo^8^ M .aBd Wbat Bar Association. But on readinTTheTr J'Z respecting his place of burial and un a bouors, I was forcibly reminded of the remark of the sister of Robert Burn,. w,!„ poverty, on beiug told that his friends in Ed inburgb were about to erect an expensive mon ument to bis memory. She said:—“Yes he wanted bread, aud now they are going to give him a stone.” I am free to express that I did not do my whole duty to Mr. Morgan, with whom I have been acquainted forty years, and I am sorry that be died as he had lived, aloue and neg lected. It causes unpleasant reflections. Windham, Nov. 17. \y. 0 A correspondent of the Rockland Gazette, Who saw Gnn. Butler at Wiscasset, thinks he ‘‘certainly has not a large amount of‘personal i pulchritude.’ Eleiua. i The Illinois Legislature, now in session, has under consideration a resolution instructing the Representatives to Congress from that State to favor the passage of an act giviDg all honorably discharged soldiers and seamen, or their heirs, 160 acres of land, without subject ing them to the necessity of pre erupting and settling upon the same. The Zion’s Herald’d says that every minister should preach often ou Satan. “Perhaps so,” replies the Christian Register, “but editors of religious journals should beware how they allow him to become one of the leading con tributors to their colurns.” A letter passed through the Belgrade (Me.) Post Office the other day bearing tbe follow ing directions:—“To the Post Master to Bos ton, Mass. Misther, plase sind this letter to my frind Bridget Roberts who. duz Gineral House work at No. 11 Camden street, and don’t charge her nothing for I have paid three cints.” A pew in a fashionable church in most American cities costs as much as the rent of a Comfortable house for a year. Reports from several counties in Maryland are to the effect that the small pox is raging (o an alarming extent, ©specially among the ne groes. The southern claims commission has already received ten thousand claims for property dis troyed during the war and it is reasonable to expect that the number will be doubled and perhaps trebled. Only 16 or 20 per cent, have been favorably recommended. The Roman Catholic Clergy in Ireland have declared political war on tbe National schools, on tbe ground that “Because mixed education is intrinsically and grievously dangerous to faith and morals, and tends to perpetuate dissensions, insubor dinations, and disaflbctioD in this couulrj, those bolding different religious principles from theirs, seek to violate tbe civil rights of Catholic people by forcing upon them a system of education repugnant to their religious con victions, and destructive alike to their temporal and eternal wellare.” This is exploded by the Sunderland (Eng land Times, which points out that ro far from the system’s being “forced” on the Catholics, it was tbe result of ao agreement, forty years ago, between Archbishop Murray, of Dublin, and Lord Stanley, afterwards Earl Derby, and approved at the time by the Pope. The schools aim to be Christian, but not seclarian, and tbe (tUbUUIIg.ru UUU&S Ul ICB3UU9 lUitU Udll) IU lUCUi, contain copious oeleclions from the Holy 8criptures, approved, when first compiled, by the hehds of the rival churches. The schools, as the Times remarks, hava not changed, but Catholicism has, being now expounded in Ire land by bigoted and stupid uTramontanes. The West Pensaukee Suflcre.'i, A LETTER OF TRANKS. Mrs. D. D. Barker, in n letter to Mr. W. M. Marks, thus expresses the thanks of the West Pensaukee sufferers for the articles sent Irom this city: Thero was a splendid lot of them, and I have doue tlij best I could with them. I sent word all over town ior all who were burnt out to come and receive ttteir portion, and I opened my house to the suffering people, and have had enough to do. Some days I did not have a chance to get any diuuer, ior before odo lot would go another would come. But 1 feel mors than compensated, knowing as I do, that through your kindness and that of those other dearltiends iu Portland I have been able to make many suffering ones comfortable, and if you could see tire tsars start, and^liear their heartfelt thanks you would feel as 1 do, that you bad your reward, if it could be possible for you to be rewarded. You have lightened many a burdened sne, and cheered and com forted many, and I know that God will reward ?oa and all those dear friends who have so iberally contributed. One man came Thursday with his little girl with hardly clothing enough far a summer’s day. The mother was hilled on the cars last summer, and now the poor m in is stripped of nearly every thing else. His housekeeper came also, and hsr case was really pitiful. She had a pair of twins a few mouths ell and a lit tle girl about three years old. They were aroused in the night by the dog to find the whole house in flames. She grasped her three little ones iu her arms,and had to pass down the stairway when it was alt in flames, with just their night clothes on. If it hadu’t heeo for that dog every one in that house must have burned to death. Through.the generosity of those dear friends I was enabled to furnish a complete and beautiful outfit for that suffering mother and those children; a more |grateful person I never saw. There are many cases which I would like to specify, but time will not allow me to do so. I will only say that I have tried to do the very best I could with them, and to give satisfaction to all. And now, in regard to clothings Wis consin is, 1 think, well supplied, and I have promised those vegetab’es when they arrive, but would not say that it is advisable to send any more, as they must freeze and become Jfgrthless. There has been a large lot sent are manyItrTicTclP flWdJilLHus State.

D. Barker. The Vice-Prisidenct. The Providence Journal varies the line of political discussion just uow by considering who shall be Vice President, rather than who shall be President. It says very truly that there would have been no question about the Republican nomination had not Mr. Colfax peremptorily declined to have his name used again. But this act, it de clares, was a breach ol party discipline, and it proposes to punish him tor meddling with matters belonging to the national convention, by reuomioating him and making him seive anyway. Thao is a kiad of punishmeut that a great maiority of the Republican party will be very glad to have a hand in. Elegant School Building.—An occasional correspondent at Farmington writes: “Among tbe many popular enterprises lor education there is uone more worthy of notice than the building recsntly etected at “The Willows,” in Farmington by Hannibal Belecher, Esq of that place, for a Family School lor Girls. This building is 90x40 ft. with a projection 84x10 ft. and is three stories high, with basemeut and a French roof. The reception room is 37 1 2 xlO ft. and tbe.generalschool room is 40x20 ft With these there are library, cabinet, masic, gymna sium,wash, bathing and dinning rooms, with splendid apartments lor seventy scholars,which are furnished with spacious cloths presses and are to be furnished with first class furniture and carpets. The building is to be heated by steam, applied by W. H. Pennell Co., of Portland, and issupplioi byja constant flow of never failing water from a spring located so high above the building that it is carried into every story. This elegant building will cost not far from $30,000 and was erected by Mr. Belcher for bis daughter, Miss L. G. Belcher, a highly accom plished and thoroughly educated lady, who is to be principal. Connected with the institu tion there are thirty acres of land that is to be laid out into a handsome garden and each pu pil is to have a plot alloted to her to culti vate. Chas. E. Jose Co., of Portland are to furnish crockery, and Walter Corey Co., the furniture for this establishment. Much credit s due Mr. Belcher for his earnest endeavors to accomplish this undertaking which will prove of great value to the flourishing town as well as to our State.” Gorham —The circle connected with the Methodist Eniseopal church held its meeting on Friday evening last, at the residence of Itoscoe G.
