A capy of the resolution adopted by the Conven- tion is onclosed." Speaker Blaino has roplied s follows, under dato of Saturday : “ QexrLeseN : I avail mysolf of tho earliest moment of Jeisure afier my roturn from Waeh~ ington ta roply to your favorof tho20thof June, communicating to mo tho tlattering intelligence of my unanimons nomination as tho candidate of the Republican party forRopresentative in tho Forty-fourth Congress from tho Third District of Malne, ‘The resolutions to which you invite my attontfon aro so generally accoptablo to tho pooplo of tho distriot that no issue will bo made on the matters embracod in thom, THOE CURRENOY QUESTION, atone time threatening to divide varties, and, what would bo far moro sorious, to divide sce- tions, 18 in proooss of s happy adjustmont, pact- 1y by wise and temperate _onactment, pussed by # large majority in both branches of Congrees and approved by the President, but morolargely by the operation of causes more power= ful than any _ logislation ean be. In thesa remarks I am indeed but repent- iug in substauco tho resolutions of your Couvention, and I gladly adopt as_my own' the loading declaration of tho series, that ‘it is the imperntive duty of tho National Government to rofurn to specio paymonts nu soon n8 Wiso states- ,monehip oan eafely resch that result’ ; but winle our pohtical opponents In Maine will not weri- ously coutest auy pasition taken by us, thoy have themuolves chosen to IIAISE ANOTTER IBSUE on which we will not be slow to differ from thom. “IPho Democratio State Convention,in ronomi- nating their respectable candidate for Govornor, adopued, with suggestivo unanimity, tho follow- ing rerolutton, tho loading articlo in their ro- visod political oraad : Revolved, That a protootive tarift 1 n most unjust, unequal, oppressive, and wasteful mods of ralmug tho publiec roveuucs, It is ono of the most pofgnant and fruatful sourco of the corruptions iu administration, We, thorefore, the Demoeracy of Maino, i couvention asvambled, deolaro for free trade, and in favor of an unfettored oud unrestrictod comuierce, Plg advanced position, now formally and boldly taken by the Maing Democracy in thoir Btate Convention, roceives additional point and menning by the lotter of tho Gubernatorial can- didate, Mr. Titcomb, who, in accoptiug the nom- ination, upecially anmves the foregoing resolu- tion, and intimates bis enduranco of the lowest form of rovenus tar{ff only * until wo shall Lo clucated up o the idea of oqual, dwcet, andg, therofors, modersts, taxe ation for tho mlflmrl of the Giovernment, and until this ideashall bo brought into practical operation. If thore wers the slightest dauger of the Domocratic party, with this ayowod policy, coming into power, the dan- gers abead would bs traly appalling ; but, as no such calamity impends, wo may bo nllowed to oxumino with more cooluess the wild absurdity of tho proposition. You will observa that tho iseno proposed is not the old and familiar one betweon thoso who advocsto n tarilf for pro- teotlon and thoss who wish dutics imposed ONLY FOIl REVENUE. That 18 an jssuo as old a8 tho \ovt'm[,' of lem’tB, and with occasional exceptions has boen doter- mined largoly by latitudo and_longitudo, or by tho difforing futoreats which change of eoction aud varying forms of interost bave developed, but the Maino Domoeracy assume that nll tarilfs are moro or less protective, and heuce thay sre hoatilo to thom and pronounco for FREE-TUADE PURE AND HIMPLE, absolute and without qualification, or, to_quote their own words, for ‘‘Au_ unfottered " aud unrestricted commerce.” Tor somo yesrs post, {0 deal in round numbers, - tho Fedoral Qovernment hns boen colleoting a rovenug of £800,000,000, one-third from intornal taxes, and two-thirds from tariff dutios, 1t is now rropuued by the Maino Domocracy 0 abolish all these dutics, havo absolute froo trade, with an unfettored and unvestrioted commorce. Tu othier words, tho Muino Domoctacy propose to raiue the 200,000,000 in gold coiv, now ob- tainod from taritf duties, by dircot taxntion, or by n system of excises, which might prove even moro u‘pprnuu\vu thun direct taxation, itself thore 8 mo othor moda opou undor the congtitution by which tho monoy can bo raised thau the two named, it the taiiff bo abandonod and Mr, Titcomb, declares for direct taxation.

Our lumber interests,ombarrassad and opprosuod, would havo to compate with tho untaxed produots of tho Cenadlsn forests ; our manutaoturors would pay tnxus for tho houofit of Luropean fabries ; our Bhlp—hlllldlnF would bo dostroyed by tho taxation, which would render it incapablo of competing with provincial bottoma, and, under THE MAGSO SVELL OF DEMOGRBATIC FIER TBADE, our pooplo, for thio flvat time sinco the foundn- tion of tho Governmeont, would ba thrown opon o0 the whata warld, “'nxntion in all forms is one of the brrdens of civilization, but instoad of ameliorating its novarlty, and, If_pounible, gottlng from it such componsating advantagon ay wiso logislation can rovide, our Maino Dewoorats proposo to make it Yu tho Inst dogroe appressive to our own poople, and beuoticial only to the aliou aud the atranger. To tho peoplo of WMaine, at thin moment, these oxtravagant deolarations of the Democrntio me bave a painful significance, for v is woll inown that tho nutloritics of Canada aro trying to nogotisto with our Governmont fora reciprocity troaty, which, like its illustrious pro- decossor and namesake, maintains tho reciprool- ty nll on one sido. Tho troaty of that nnmo, which waa torminated in 1860, was. * CRUELLY OPPRESBIVE TO TIIE PEOPLE of Malue, and inflicted upon our State dure in 5 the olovon yeara of its existonco & loss of $060,000,000. It prosented the vory singular snomaly of pgiving to the Canedinns tho control, in onr own markots, of cortain leading nsticles, on terma far moro fav- orablo thuo oiir own. pooblo Iid ovor onjoyed. Tho utmost strotch of the Divine' command is to love our nolghoor a8 oursolves, and I c¢an seo nothing in porsonal duty or puhilu ‘policy which should lond us to profer Canadian neighbors to our own poople. The renty of Reciprocity now proposed is undoratood to ombrace the ndmission of Canadian vogsels to froe Amorienn reistry, and ‘tho full enjoymont of our coasting and lako trado. Thus tho shipbuilding and commercial interosts of the United States, roviving 80 prosporousiy of late, aod Just regovering from tho torriblo blowa doat by British-built crulsors during tho war, oro sgaly to bo struck down, by giving advantages Iuthorto undreawod of to the ships of the yory powor that inflicted tho provions injury, snd the Domooratio party of Maine hinve pledged thomsolves, in tholr Stato Convention, to tho policy that includes this dis- astrous attack npon the jutoroats of our Btate, and thoir eandidato for Governor has fully com- mitted himsolt to the extromo doctrine announc- ed by tho Convontion. 'THE ¥ORM OF NEGIPROOITY PBOPOSED by $he Government of the Dominion of Canada lacks every ecloment of the weductive title by which it {5 sought to com- mend it to -our poople, What is {t? Why, simply thia: ‘That if tho United:8tates will agroo to admit cortain Canagian products froo of dinty, Canada will agroe 40 admit cortain Ameri- can fabrica freo of duty. But the class of men to bo bonefited aud that clnss to bo ivjured in the United Statoa are oxpressly diatinot and sep~ nrnto, having nothing in common eithor in Jocai- ity, fndnatry, ot {uvestmont.
