A writer in the Press, “C.t" calls atten tion to a fact, not hitherto generally known, that Nathaniel Hawthorne spent a portion of his boy life in Maine; and he gives a very interesting account of the present ruinous condition ot the old house in Raymond where these youthful years were passed. He alludes to the fact that Hawthorne’s mother, grieving for the loss of her husband, here sought and found complete seclusion. It will lx; interesting to give more in detail the history of this house, and the circumstances which have led to its becoming a ruin. Hawthorne’s father was a ship master and died of yellow fever at Havana in 1*10, when Nathaniel was six years of age. His mother was one of the Salem Mann ings, a sister of Richard and Robert Manning, who were anibng the original proprietors of the town of Raymond in this State, which then included a territory more than seven miles square, and which has since been divided to form the town of Casco. Richard had taken tqi his resi dence in the wilderness and built a house, still standing near what is known as Ra doux’s Mills, on a little stream which is the dividingline between Casco and Raymond, not far from where it empties into Lake Selmgo. This house (now occupied by Mr. Andrew Libby) has been kept painted and in good repair. For four years after the death of her husband Mrs. Hawthorne remained at her home in Salem, when her brother Ilk-hard built for her a large, and for those times genteel, house on the opposite side of the creek from his own residence, but only a few rods distant. This was in 1814, dur ing our war with Great Britain. Haw thorne was then a lad of ten years. Here they resided about six years in great se clusion, time having little effect in assuag ing the grief of the widowed mother. At length the necessity of providing better facilities for the education of her son, who, with the help of his uncle Richard, was fitting for college, forced her to return with him to Salem, where he finished his preparatory studies, and in 1821 he enter ed Bowdoin College. It was a remarkable class—that class of 1820, of which he was a member. It in cluded such names as Henry VV. Longfel low, and Stephen Longfellow, his celebra ted brother, George If. Cheever, J. S. C. Abbott, J. W. Bradbury and Jonathan Cilley. Besides these, who have a national reputation, were three well-known gentle men of this city, all now deceased, viz.: J. I). Kinsman, J. S. Little and Ilezekiah Packard. Blit we do not propose now to sketch further the foutunes of this child of genius, for his life from this date is already sufficiently well known to the public. Our business is with the house still stand ing, which has been consecrated by his residence within its walls for those years of his life when all the springs of his character were being formed. It is re markable that there is no local tradition of this residence of the Hawthornes in Ray mond. Very few of the present inhabi tants of that region had been aware of the treasure that hail once been In their midst, till last winter the worthy librarian of our public library, in a lecture delivered in that vicinity, called their attention to the fact. It is singular that no one remains in that region who remembers the boy Hawthorne, who resided there only fifty years ago. It shows the seclusion in which he was kept, and that he had few or no playfellows. Richard Manning died hefor his illustri ous nephew had shown to the world the stull' of which lie was made, or at least before the world waked up to the recogni tion of his genius. Tnis was about the year ls.'lu. In lS.'lg his widow married Francis Radonx, a native of France, now residing in this city, which has long been bis home. He will he remembered as a teacher of the polite accomplishment of (lancing by all the Portland dancers of the last generation. At the age of eighty he is still erect in form as in his vigorous youth, and retains all the grace ot man lier for which he was known in his palmy days. When we called to consult him about the materials for this sketch, we found him reading fine print without glasses. By the will of Mr. Manning provision was made for a church to he built in the vicinity of his late residence. Mr. lladoux suggested that the Hawthorne house be remodelled into a church, as it was too large a house for any family then likely to want it. This was done at acost however, exceeding that which a new and more suitable church would have involved. As there was no society to take charge of the church, it was opened as a free meeting house, and Rev. Mr. Richardson of Otisni hl 'preached the dedicatory ser mon. Its doors were open to clergymen of all denominations, and as “what is every body’s business is nobody’s'’ there was lu one to take care of the edifice now doubly sacred. I hen the road which usetl to pass it has been diverted in a direction more convenient tor the neighborhood, so that it is now off the highway. Thus it happens that the early home ol one of the greatest, if not the greatest, of American authors is going rapidly to decay. We do hope something will be done to preserve tliis relic, for in coming years pilgrims from all parts of the world will search for it as an object of constantly increasing in terest.

The Government paid, at the close of the previous Fenian raid, $80,(KM in re-: turning the invaders of Canada to their homes. At the end of the late raid the Government gave peremptory instructions to its military and civil representatives on the frontier to pay nothing whatever, taking the ground that it was under no obligation, first, to incur the embarrass ment caused by these expeditions fitted out to make war upon a friendly power and the second, to relieve the people who undertook them from any embarrassment which they might suffer and return them m safety and without expense to the homes they had left. The long-pending troubles ijetween the Sultan and his Viceroy in Egypt are to! end, it seems in war. Russia has inter-' lered, fait not as a peace-maker, and as sured ol the Czar's powerful aid, the Khe dwat prepares tor war. it is well-known that he has drawn much of his armament from this country, has shipped sixty thous and Remington rifles, arid has more under ooiUaat, and ha* enlisted numbers of American soldiers as officers of his battal ions. ,{1 The story of the massacre of Jews in Koumania, which ha.- created so much sympathy in this country turns out to have been a sheer fabrication put forth by sen sational news mongers to excite and de lude the public. OHIO DEMOCRACY. The (>hio democracy have taken the field and put forth their declaration of princi ples, from which we can judge the position w hich the democratic party in other States will occupy. They denounce the tariff bill lately before Congress, also the exist ing tariIf, and favor a close approximation to free trade; declare against the internal revenue system as oppressive and annoy ing; denounce the profligacy and corrup- j tion of the national administration, its appointments to office and disregard of the rights of citizens abroad; proclaim opposition to land monopolies; declare the act for the enforcement of the Fifteenth Amendment unconstitutional, unjust, op pressive, an invasion of the rights of the States, and subversive of the rights of the people; assert the power and dut\’ of the federal government to tax national bonds, and demand that Congress assess and col- I i leet a tax upon them oppose the system 1 of national banks; and denounce tire ad ministration for its policy in relation to Great Britain and Spain. There is nothing said here about the large reduction of the national debt effect- eil the last year by the administration this was probably beneath the notice of the convention. But there are two points made, one against the enforcement of the Fifteenth Amendment, the other in favor of taxation of bonds, which are subjects of national concern and serve to show that the fell spirit of copperheadisrn is not yet extinct. The convention was not very enthusiastic over its doings and prospects, but having set an example for the democ racy of Vermont and Maine ipiietly ad journed after a short session. WESTON'S LAST TRIAL. Weston the pedestrian has been more successful in his late attempts at walking than in liis former ones. Ilis last feat was walking fifty miles inside of ten hours. From (lie New York Tribune we copy the following: Just as the chimes of old Trinity struck 12, the word “Go” w as given, and tile pedestrian commenced his journey. At first lie walked at an easy pace, but on accomplishing the first mile, lie strode away at the rate of five miles I an hour. He appeared to bo in fine condition, and all his friends were confident that he i would win. The band played lively airs, and as the day advanced, the crowd of visitors in creased. A colored gentleman attended to Mr. Weston’s w ants from time to time, and took I every precaution that no accident should oc cur. At the end of every mile the time was put upon the Imlletin, and the hand played the ryust appropriate selections. Qn at drops of sweat began to fall from the pedestrian’s face, alter he had accomplished a few miles, and at almost every round he j called for lemonade. He gained time slowly, and when he had walked 20 miles he had several minutes to spare. About five o’clock j preparations were made for the pedestrian to stop and rest. Blanket* were spread, and a chair was placed beside the track for him to -it in, but lit1 paid but little attention to his friends and kept on his course. Finally he halted, dropped into a chair, and w as iin- mediately covered with a blanket. He ate j rapidly from a bowl of crackers and coffee, j and in an incredibly short space he was on his journey again. A child with golden curls threw him kisses, and ns he moved away her silver voice bade him good bye. By dusk the while ruffled shirt had changed to a dingy J brown, and the ‘‘patent leathers” were covered with dust. The crowd continued to increase with the speed of the pedestrian. There were ladies and gentlemen from the avenues, and with few exceptions, the audi ence was composed of sucii people as one would expect to see at a lecture or concert. I Perhaps it is for this reason that the members of the sporting fraternity are so loud in their denunciations of the great walker. By 9 o'clock all the scats were occupied anil every ear brought more people to the spot. The excitement increased every moment and the band played with renewed vigor. Weston continued to increase his speed as the hour of 10 approached. The police were active but tiiey found it no easy task to keep back the excited multitude. Twelve minutes ahead was announced, and the vast building rang with dicers. “One mile more gentlemen” was the cry, and then the crowd swayed to and fro and the band played favorite selec tions from Offenbach. Weston seemed to gain strength us he walked, and the waiter lmd to run when he wished to communicate with him. Toward the close of the great feat a smile illumined the pedestrian’s face, and an arch of uplifted arms spanned the pathway nearly around the rink. “Thirteen minutes and 55 seconds ahead 1" cried one of the judges, as the hero stepped on the platform, and clasped his wife and child, He then walked four times around the rink backward, j making the following time. The distance is j half a mile 1st time, 2 minutes 47 seconds 2d time, 2 minutes 40 seconds; 3d time. 2 minutes 33 seconds; 4th time, 2 minutes 37 1 seconds. Total, 10 minutes 37 seconds. The time consumed by Mr. Weston in w alking the 50 miles was hours 58 minutes and 55 seconds, according to the City Sur veyor’s measurement. If Mr. Charles B. Knapp of North New Portland is a democrat, and has been appointed to office by surreptitious, or un tair means, as the Portland Advertiser al leges, there is just cause for complaint on the part of republicans. But the repre sentations of the “ins” and “outs,” are often so at variance with each other, that it is very unsafe to venture an opinion af ter hearing but one side of the ease, and after hearing both sides, it is generally j enough to puzzle a Philadelphia lawyer to decide which is right. We presume this airing of North New Portland affairs at this time is entirely with a view to reform the manner of appointments in the civil service, and was made with no reference whatever to the Congressional Convention which meets in thin city next week. Doubt less it will have a vast influence to aid the passage nf Mr. Jenckes' bill, and how it will affect Mr. Blaine’s nomination will he told next Tuesday afternoon. The Democratic General Committee of New York adopted resolutions calling upon the different hoards in the city to j.displace ail republicans in their employ ment and (ill their places with democrats, i he hoards have been visited in some eases, and although inconvenient and em i harrassing to thu public service, allrupuli lieatiR are obliged to leave and seek em ployment elsewhere. This Is democratic liberality Exemplified where that party holds the power. Andrew Johnson, «o his friends say, will run i for Congress any how. SPEECH OF RED CLOUD. At the council between the delegation of red men at Washington and Secretary fox and Commissioner Parker, on the 7th, Hod Cloud replied to the remarks of .Secretary Cox as follows: I came from where the sun sets. You were raised on chairs. I want to sit where the sun sets. Here he sat on the floor in Indian fash ion and proceeded: The Great Spirit has raised me this way. lie raised me naked. I run no opposition to the Great Father who sits in the White House. 1 don’t want to tight. 1 have ofl'ered my prayer to the Great Father so that I might come hi re safe and well. What I have to say to you and these men and to my Groat Father is this book at me. I w as raised where the sun rises and came from where he sets. Whose voice was first heard in this land? It was the red people's. Who used the bow? The Great Father may be good and kind, hut I ean't see it. I am good and kind to the white people and have given my lands, and have now come from where the sun sets to see you. The Great Father has sent his people out there and left me noth ing but an island. Our nation is melting away like snow on the side of the hills when the sun is warm, while your people are like heads of grass in spring when the summer is coming. I don't want to sec white people making roads in our country. Now that I have come to my Great Father's land, see if I have any blood when I return to my home. The white people have sprinkled blood on the blades of grass about the line of Fort Fetterman. Tell the Great Father to remove the fort, then we will be peaceful and there will be no more trouble. I have got two mountains in that country, Black Hill and Big Horn. I want no roads there. There have been stakes driven in that country ami I want them re moved. I have told these things three times and I come hero to tell them for tin? fourth time. 1 have made up my mind to talk that way. I don’t want any reservations on the Missouri. Some of these people here are from there and know what I say. What I hear is that my children and old men are dy ing ofl like sheep. The country don't suit them. 1 was born at the fork of the Natte. My father and mother told mo that the lan 1 there belonged to me. From the north and west this nation lias come into the Great Father’s house. We are the last of the Ogal- 1 lalas. We have come to know the facts from our Father; why the promises which have been made to us have not been kept. 1 want the two or three traders that we ask for at the mouth of Horse Creek. In 1S52 there was a treaty made and the man who made that treaty (alluding to Mitch ill) told me the truth. The goods whieli have been sent out to me have been stolen all along the road and only a handful would reach me to go among my nation, l.ook at me. I am |g)nr and naked. 1 was not raised with arms. 1 always want to be peaceable. The Great Spirit lias raised you to read and write ami lias put papers before you, but he has not raised me in that style. The men whom the President sends us are soldiers, I and all ot them have no sense and no heart. I know it to-day. 1 did not ask that the whites should go through my country killing game, and it is the Great Father's fault. You are the people who should keep peace. For the i railroads you are passing through my country 1 have not received so much as a brass ring for the land they occupy. I wish you to tell that to my Great Father. You whites make j all the ammunition. What is the reason you don’t give it to me? Are you afraid I am go ing to war? You are great and powerful, and 1 am only a handful. I do not want it for I that purpose, but to kill game with. I sup pose I must in time go to farming, but I can't, do it right away. Each sentence of this speech was received with loud grunts, denoting hearty applause from the Indians. After Red cloud had concluded Little Bear made a short speech, complaining ot bad treat ment by the soldiers and other whites engaged in farming operations. Several of his young men were shot while out linnting. and that ended his corn raising. He reiterated the main features and complaints of Red Cloud’s j speech. Secretary Cox promised to report all that had been said to the President and arrange a time for a meeting with him. J lie isoston Advertiser 8 ashington correspondence says “the struggle in the House over the tax and tariffquestion was easily concluded without any of the noise and excitement of last week. The point for which General Schenck contended all day Saturday was carried by yeas 11(1, nays 54, and then the first section of his tariff bill was added as an amendment to the tax bill by yeas 139 to nays 43. The second section embodying his free list was next added by yeas 102 to nays 40, and the third and fourth sections were then added without a division. On the passage ,if the whole bill thus amended, the vote stood yeas 105, nays 35, the only republicans in the negative being Hays and Heflin of Ala- i bama. The democrats and revenue re formers were anxious to have various changes made in both the first and second sections, looking to an increase ol the free list, and further reductions on iron, steel and certain other articles. The democrats fought Schenck to the last, but the revenue reformers concluded, under all circum stances, to take the bill and console them selves with the fact that it makes a reduc tion of at least 15,000,non ,VI>ToN.

I have lu-en for the last ten or twelve years the greatest sufferer man could he and live; but more sometimes than others. The complaint was the Kidneys" and Bladder.” I have been sometimes j from tw elve to fourteen hours, and wanted t make water every minute, but could not. Have consult ed doctors, both in Massachusetts and this Mate, ami taken pills, 1 may say. by the quart, ulsO liq uored medicines, but found uo relief from any, and got w orse the last six month*. 1 was so that 1 could scarcely get about. 1 could not rest night or day. It would sbon have been “all ill)” w ilh IU6 if i had not seen your advertisement in “The Berkshire Courier” headed Kidnevs.” 1 read it through and thought I would try it. 1 purchased a bottle, but, mind you, had not much faith in it. Why should I. when 1 had been trvmg so many things and cost me so much Well, I began taking it, and before 1 hail taken the flr-t bottle 1 felt bad but I illii’-htsil it and got another. By the time 1 took half of the second 1 still got worse (apparently). When I walked it seemed as it' my right kidney was falling from its place, and 1 felt really bad. I felt so, before I had ilnished the second, that 1 had made up my mind it was of no use trying any more—and all this time I the “Burhu” was doing its work, but I did not I know it; sol gave it up and went to Hartford on (Saturday to see one of the best «bn-tors in the eity.

You are aware, as well a- myself, that it has been extensively employed in the various diseases of the bladder and kidney8* and the reputation it. has ac quired, in my judgment. is warranted hy the fuels. I have seen and used, ns before stated, every form of liuchu—the powdered leaves, tincture, fluid ex tract:—aud 1 am not eongniaant of anv preparation of that plant at all equal to yours. Twelve years’ experience ought. 1 think, to give me the right to judge of its merits mid, without prejudice or par tiality, I give yours precedence over all others.

I despaired of ever getting well, and determined to use no remedies hereafter unless 1 knew of the ingredients. It was this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you advertised that it was composed of bmdju. cubebs and juniper berries, it occurred to me and my phys ician a*' an excellent combination and vv ;Jh 1»t- ad vice, alter an examination of the article and con sulting again with the druggist. I concluded to try if. I commenced to use it about eight months ago, at which time I vas confined to my room. From the first bottle I was astonished at the ben eficial effect, and alter Using it three weeks was able to walk out. 1 felt much like writing to you a full statement of my ease at the time, but thought my improvement might only be temporary, and therefore concluded to defer, and see it it would effect a perfect cure, knowing Hint it would be ot greater value to von and more satisfactory t-> me. I am now able‘to report that a cure is effected, after using the remedy for five months. 1 have not used any now for three mouths, and leel ns well in all respects as I ever did. Your Biiehn being devoid of any unpleasant taste ami odor, a nice tonic and invigorator of the sy stem. 1 4lo not mean to be Without it w henever occasion may require its use on siicfi affections. M.
