Member.' from Connecticut have gone j home to take part in the election. Franklin Chase, United States Consul General at Tampico, is to be removed from that position. General Ames will be admitted to the Senate whenever a vote on his credentials can be reached, and the opponents of the Bingham amendment to the Georgiif bill claim that they are sufficiently strong to defeat it in the Senate. The chances for the annexation of San Domingo are said to be small. It is claimed j that two thirds of the Senate will vote against j it. There is talk in Washington of trying to annex San Domingo by a joint resolution of the two Houses, in ease the Senate rejects the treaty before it. The former method would require only a majority of each House. The Secretary of the Navy has been compel led to cut down expenses in every direction in order to keep within the appropriation. In the Navy Yard at Washington, the number of workmen and mechanics lias been reduced in all branches, and quite a number of men have thus been thrown out of employment. The reduction will shortly follow in all the yards. Orders have heed issued by the Chief of the Bureaus of Yards and Docks to reduce all expenses to the lowest possible figure. A Washington correspondent says that Sir. Sumner, in his speech on the San Domingo treaty, advocated a federation of the West India Islands under the protection of the United States when the people of those Is lands shall signify a desire for such protec tion. George Alfred Townsend in one of Ins re cent letters to the Chicago Tribune has the following Garfield said to me, some weeks ago: “Blaine's administration of the House has been admirable, and he lias more friends to day than probably any man in the government. They are all real admirers, not time-servers.” An attempt at murder was made at Lynn on Friday by David J. Farnham upon Charles Vaughn. Vaughn was boarding at Farnham’s, and the latter suspected criminal intimacy be tween Vaughn and his wife. This led to the attempt at murder by shooting, which failed. Farnham was arrested but Vaughn failed to appear against him. and slunk away from his old quarters. Farnham is said to belong in Maine.
A sail accident happened in the woods at Wentworth Location on Saturday, March 5th, Mr. Nelson Fiekett fell under a load of logs and was run over, the whole load passing over him bruising him on the head and internally, and he died Thursday the 10th. He was a very industrious and worthy man, and was formerly a resident of Cape Elizabeth, where he has relatives living who will learn with sor row his sad fate. Mr. J. II. Orne, who is at the head of the order of Good Templars in the l'nited States, will spend a week in Maine in lecturing upon the subject of Temperance, immediately fol lowing the session of the Grand Lodge. He will probably speak at Portland, Bangor, Bath. Lewiston, Augusta, and at one or two other points. Messrs. J. M. Wiswell Co., nt Kast Machias, have their schooner nearly com pleted, it having been built hv Master J. Wil liams Foster. She is said to be n well built vessel. The Pension office in Portland lias paid within the last three weeks 2000 pensioners* the aggregate amount approximating *100,000. Domrstir Nrtus.

We learn from the Reporter that at a mel t ing of the Gardiner Gas Company held on 'Thursday afternoon, a dividend of six per ci nt. was declared. It was also voted that the price of gas be reduced from $4.50 to $4.00 per thousand feet, and that new coal 1 shells be built and other improvements made about their manufactory. This reduction in price makes gas as cheap, if not cheaper than in any other city In the State, with the exception ot Portland, where it is $3.00. The town of Carmel lias purchased the Alonzo Tilton farm for a home for their pau per.'. 'Tin' price; paid was $4,000. All the furniture, produce, farming implements, and stock except one carriage horse, were in eluded in the sale. The farm embraces one hundred and fifty acres, about one half well j wooded.

We see it stated that Sir. W. W. Thomas, Jr. of Portland, has been appointed Commis sioners of Emigration. He expects to leave fur Europe very shortly, and to have a num ber of Scandinavian families settled in Aroos took before the end of the summer. The following appointments have been made at the Navy Yard Daniel C. Norton, oflvittery. to be Foreman Hole Borer; A. L. Stevens of Kittery, Sailmaker, vice Wm. W. Noyes, of Portsmouth and E. P. Parchcr, of Biddeford, Gatekeeper and Detective. We learn that on Saturday morning la.-t, Mr. John Vickery, a highly respected citizen of Unity, threw himself from the bridge into Sandy Stream, a few rods from his dwelling, and was drowned. No cause is assigned for the sad act. The Oxford Democrat says a Mormon preacher, David Sessions Iirown, is laboring in Mexico. There have gone from that town within one year, seven families, consisting of thirty-six persons, and one lady, the widow of David 1*. Brown. Rev. B. A. Chase of Foxcroft. of the Fast Maine Conference, is to in- transferred to the Providence Conference and stationed at the Thames St. Church. Newport.
