COMMUNICATIONS. (For the Port It ml Daily Press.) A Sandwich Island Holiday. BY HARRY MINCER. The valley of Waipio, liears the reputation of being tiie loveliest spot of the whole group of the Hawaiian Islands. Situated as it is up on tlie Island of Hawaii, the largest and most picturesque of the group, far removed from the business haunts of the Anglo Saxon, it pos sesses ill itself an attraction in the way of si lent grandeur and sublimity, as is rarely to lie met with in that far-famed “Garden of the Pa cific.” The approach to it is by a narrow and preci[> itous patliway, which traces itselfin a winding course down a precipice some thousands of feet in height, requiring of tlie traveller the greatest caution in his descent, lest by one false step he may lie in atoms at it* base. When viewed from the sea, its Southern Itoun dary, it prevent* au appearance of a most ma jestic nature. Land-locked a* it is by three beetiling and lofty walls of a volcanic origin, whose summit* tower amid the clouds, adoru ed a* it is by vegetation ot the richest nature, ^^'arpeted as it is by the most refreshing greeu —watered as it is by dancing rivulets from tlie crags o’erhead,—we certainly can feel no as tonishment, that the ancient Hawaiian* should liave given it the name of the “Valley of Uef uge.” It was here, that during the despotic and cruel reign of the ancient chiefs, when the is land wns divided into factions, that men flee ing lor their lives, would seek an nssylum from tlie oppressor. When once within the sacred wails of this valley,—the pursued was safe— could even turn and hurl back defiance upon his enemy,—confident, in his superstitious faith of the power of the sacred taboo. The Hawaiian of former days was filled with the most blind superstition, and although near ly half a century has elapsed since the light of civilization was thrown upon them, yet to this day, do many retain with a fond tenacity the superstitious customs of their departed fath ers.” It was to this same beautiful valley that a party of travellers were wending their way from the village of liawaihae, where still stands the heathen temple of the great Kame hameha._Mounted upon mules, the party rode leisurely along, now*Stoppiug to admire the beautiful forest, through which the path lay, and now to take a quiet loll of five minutes under the beautiful hala tree. An easy ride of four hours brings the traveller to the ex tremity of a road which terminates abruptly at the edge of a precipice, over-looking the far-famed valley ol Waipio. This our travel lers reached, after a while, and little dreaming of the magnificent view to burst so suddenly »l>on them, until a shout from the foremost of the party awoke them from the trance into which they hnd fallen. It was curious to ols serve the different effects which the magnifi cent panorama spread out before them, had upon the minds of some. While many were mute—speechless with wonder—others were noisy and dancing with joy. The impressions first produced upon me by this scene were of a nature, not soon to be forgotten. At an elevation of two thousand feet, the spectator gazes down into the valley beneath him. u|>on a fertile tract of land, marked out tnto chequers by the farms and kalo patches of the residents, while here and there the light silvery thread, flashing out into the sunlight, betokened the crystal streams as they rushed on- I ward to empty themselves into the w aters of the Pacific. The hamlets, the churches, the bridges, the herds and flocks, the vast num bers of sea-birds, an- all taken in at glance, j while, here and there may be marked a clump of tress of a little darker verdure than that of the surrounding foliage, pointing out the spot where the golden orange may be found, in all of its tropical freshness. Preparations were now made for the descent: and accordingly, dismounting, our animals were given into the hands of the native guides, who taking the lead, started off at a brisk pace, i entirely incompatible with our own notions of safety. Here and there as we proceeded along and down the fearful route, would we pause and but hardly daring to lilt our eyes from off the ground through fear of giddiness, at last arrived safely at the bottom of the steep, where, seated upon our mules, we halted— every one in the party being filled with high conceptions of the sublime, as new beauties would unfold themselves to our wondering gaze. I he thirty-first day of July is the indepen dence day of the Hawaiian nation. Upon this day was restored to them by Lord George Paulet of the British navy the flag which had been taken from them, and with which they also received the right to govern themselves. The day is much revered by the people, and ever upon its recurrence is hailed with the wildest demonstrations of loyalty and patriot ism. It was upon this day that, we found oursel ves in the valley of Waipio, the invited guests of a prominent chief, and of whose hospitali ties w'e were about to partake. Shortly after arriving at the base of the precipice, we were greeted by the chief and his followers, in the genuine style of Hawaiian hospitality, and, accompanying them as our guides, we were soon at the residence of our generous host. Here were assembled a large number of foreigners and natives from differ ent parts of the island, and who, as we left our saddles, welcomed us witli three deafening cheers. Taking a quiet seat on the verandah, I pro ceeded to enjoy the beautiful and romantic scene spread out before me. Dressed witli evergreen, mailt, and orange boughs, stood the banqueting tent, where, disltes having been laid for a hundred persons, we could dis cern tables groaning with game, poultry, meats and fish, while upon all sides were baskets of fruit, such as pine-apples, guavas, oranges, ohiat, (a native apple,) grapes, figs, melons, bannanas and green cocoa-nuts. The next feature of interest to be noticed were the dancing girls. Directly to the rear of the tent, upon the slope of a grassy mound, were seated some fifty Hawaiian damsels, ar rayed in white dresses, each being girdled by a neat crimson belt. Over their shoulders.and worn diagonally across the body, was thrown a light-blue silk scarf, while upon every brow there reposed a wreath of roses, intertwined with the geranium leaf. The dresses worn by them on this occasion were necessarily short, reaching midway between tile knee and ancle. Upon each ancle was wont a band of braided corn husk, while the feet remained unfettered •v It "O." id lit ,11 tlieir gleeful, silvery laugh, to see the animation with which they surveyed things around them. Not a thing appeared to escape their notice, and as some striking peculiarity in any one of tiie surrounding multitude would present it self, some one was sure to make a witty excla mation at his or her expense, anti taking it up in turn, there would ring out a chorus of laugh ter, not dissimilar to the sound of “merry sleigh-hells.” No holiday festivities are complete to the minds of the Hawaiian, unless graced by the presence of mi wahine hula—the dancing girls. To view one of these dances, the Haw aiian will trudge over many a weary mile of ground. He will even deny himself of the ne cessaries of life that lie may obtain a dollar to bestow upon the dancers. Beneath a noble hau tree, hut a few paces distant from tlds group, saf the native musi cians. witli their rude instruments, rehearsing to each other in the aneient manner of chant ing, the various legends, which were to be sung in accompaniment with the dancing-music of the occasion. As group after group approached, the whole scene wore an a«i>eot of gaiety and sprightli ness, such as but few of our home “pic-uic»” ever present. The gay colored robes of the natives, the hands of Hawaiian horsemen, the school-children of the district, arrayed in white, gave a charm to the lieautiful valley, and one could hardly believe that lie was else where than in a fairy land. Dinner now being announced, we were conducted by the old chief to the pavillion, where, after having seated his guests, he proceeded to invoke the Divine blessing upon the bounties spread out before us. Never, perhaps, was a dinner devoured under happier associations. The venerable man, our host, presiding at the head of the band, knew every want at a glance, and in short, quick commands, gave directions to the native waiters, who in their eagerness to do justice to the guests, frequently measured their lengths over the baskets of fruit in their rear. Native and foreign compliments were now exchanged, and after a short speech from “mine host,” the company adjourned to the green, to witness the dance of ancient Ha waii. The dancers were now arranged in a semi circle. the musicians seated within it. when at a turn-turn from the leader, out hounded five maidens, with the grace and elasticity of an an telope. Waving their hands with an easy ges ture to the spectators, a low and somewhat mournful chant was struck up by one of them, which was followed by n simultaneous chorus by all of the females present; and, with a graceful tossing of the arms, the dance com menced. At first the I todies of the dancers were bent to the rear, and clasping their hands over their heads, they commenced a series of attitudes, which would have done honor to the “graces.” Each and every movement was accompanied by a peculiar intonation of the voice, and as they fell to the rear, or advanced to the front, l>ort raying at one time the dangers of their former battles, and at another time the roman tic adventures of their chiefs, so would the multitude, in the enthusiasm of the moment, shower down at their feet tokens of their ap preciation, in the shai>e of silver coin. These were allowed to remain, until the dance being finished the party would retire, gathering up tlm coin, which was immediately given into the hands of their luinker. the oldest musician. Thus party after party of dancers succeeded each other, until the declining still gave token of closing day. The general horse-race must now lie run, or the festivities of an Haw aiian's holiday would not lie thoroughly complete. At the .Sandwich Islands the women are fearless riders. Their style of riding dress is somewhat unique, being composed of bright scarlet or orange calico, and is worn in a very graceful manner. Seated astride upon the saddle, after the fashion of the male, these women will course over the most dangerous inline mm me >pee, Z. K. HAH MON. Portland, June 20th. d&wtf. BOOKS STATIONERY.

CAUTION.—It has been estimated that over two hundred thousand dollars are paid to swindling quarks annually, in New Englanel alone, without any benefit to those who pay it. Most of this snni conies out of a class of persons who are the least able to lose it. but once paid then can never get it kick, and they are compelled to suffer the wrong in silence, not dar ing to expose the cheat for fear of erposinq them selves. All this comes from trusting, without inquiry, to men who are alike destitute or honor, character, and skill, and whoso only recommendation is their own false and extrnvagaut assertions, in praise of themselres. If, therefore, you wonld avoid being humbugged, take no man's word, no matter what his professions are, but MAKE INQUIRY:—it will cost you nothing, and may save you many regrets; for as advertising physicians, in nine cases on( of ten are bogus, there is no safety in trusting any qfthem, uu less vou know who and what they are.

The Press—What hits been snid of It. It is now a day or two more than a month since the first number of the Portland Daily Press was given to the public. Every day we are asked what success it has met with, and what are its prospects. We arc gratified to be able to say to those who take any interest in its prosperity, as well as to those who would probably shed no tears over its early death, that the success of the enterprise thus far ex ceeds our most sanguine expectations, and that its prospects are decidedly flattering.— Without boasting, we express it as our unqual ified and deliberate opinion, based on very sat isfactory data, that already the readers of the Press are as numerous as those of any moru in daily in the city or State. We do not claim that, in the limited period of one month, we have secured as large a list of actual subscri bers as some other papers may hare, but in this regard we do not believe the Press is far behind, while in transieut sales it is far ahead of any other morning paper, and on its ratio of weekly increase, we will bet a large figure, provided such a game shall become legalized by the moral and civil law givers. The first day of January next, we have stented ourselves to have a list far outnumbering that of any other daily in the State, and with the assist ance of kind friends tee trill perform the stent. To show the generous spirit in which our new enterprise has been greeted by the press, we copy below a few notices selected at ran dom. On another occasion we will give another instalment. It presents a very neat typographical appear ance—its introductory, especially, and other editorials, are carefully written, and its gener al reading well selected and agreeable. The Press, we learn, is to l»e made one of the insti tutions of the city, and we suppose the es|M* cial Institution of the Republican party.— [Portland Courier. The well known ability of its editorial corps is a guaranty for the high character of the pa per, which is well sustained by the initial num ber. It compares favorably with any daily in New England, and we have no doubt wifi be well sustained, although the enterprise is nec essarily an expensive one. It has our best wishes.—[Bangor Whig. In the whole arrangement of the paper there are marked signs of talent and industry, and the enterprise exhibited in the number before is enough to insure its success. In politics it will be squarely Republican, and w ill give a warm support to the present National Administra tion.—[Somerset Farmer. The paper is of large size, and is made up with good ta«te and printed on new' type. That the Press is ably conducted needs no other guaranty than the names of the editors. A glance over its well filled columns will give the Assurance that the Press is to be a “live” pa per.—[ Boulton Times. The Daily Press,’' is the name of a very handsome :uid very excellent journal just start ed at Portland, Maine. John T. Gilman and Joseph B. Hall are the editors. It has those peculiarities that promise long life and pros perity, and we sincerely hope the promise will be realized,—[Worcester Spy. It is a large sheet, presents a fine appear ance, and is tilled with able and spicy matter. Messrs. Gilman and Ilall have had much expe rience as Editors and are distinguished as able and brilliant writers. They cannot fail to make their paper one of the best.—[Gospel Banner. The first issue gives marked proof of the ability of the editorial corps. The salutatory is conceived in Gilman's best vein, and his en ergy and versatility are stamped in unmistak able language on the well tilled sheet. The printer has done his part in excellent taste and manner, and throughout the Portland Press exhibits enterprise and determination. In politics it will be Republican, and give a cor dial support to the National Administration. I It has our best w ishes for success.—[Kennebec Journal. The Portland Daily Press.—The first number of this new journal was issued Mon- day morning last, and it. presents a very neat typographical appearance. It is designed to hi- an advocate of Republican principles, and the editorial talent engaged in the work prom- i ises to make it an able and influential paper. Zion's Advocate. It is a sizeable sheet, and like all things new has a high shine on it. Its typography, under the care of Mr. Foster is excellent. It is pleas- ant that the growth of our city warrants in j the judgment of the publishers, the undertak- I ing of such An enterprise. However the new paper is Airly launched, and “The Pres?" will speak for itself from day to day.—[Portland Argus. The Portland Press made Its appearance yesterday. Its mechanical execution is very fair. The political principles prorlalmed in ils well written salutatory are correct. They are such as we have kept before our readers from tile beginning. The outside contained a namhy pamby love sick story, tit only for yellow covers, and seve ral others of the same sort.—[Portland Adver tiser. As the lawyers say, “we stop here,'’ for the present. Our self-esteem wul bear no more at a single dose. The New Brunswick and Canada Railway. The opening of this road to a point on the road from Houlton to Woodstock, N. B., four miles from the former, marks a new era in the history of Northern Maine, and must produce an entire change in the business relations of that region. Hitherto a large portion of the trade of Aroost«*Qk has centered in Bangor, giving employment to a large number of teams for the transportation of merchandise. Now all this must necessarily be changed. The fa cilities offered by the St. Andrews road will as a matter of course, command the carrying trade, and the business of Aroostook will flow into oilier markets, until a Bailroad shall he built to turn it hark again. The N. B. C. Bailroad runs so as to form a connection with the International Steamship Company’s line, from Boston and Portland to St. John, N. II., and with a little effort on the part of business men here, large |iortion of that business might be brought to Portland. A stock of goods shipped from this city by the steamers of the International line Monday night, are delivered at Houlton Tuesday night, at rates of freight much less than eastern merchants have liecn accustomed to pay from Bangor. It is easy to see that this trade will go to Boston, unless Portland can secure it. Is it not worth an effort We mistake the enter prise of tile business men of our rity if they not iiiani. uiai liiuii. 11 it? a ini i mat uiu?i all goods necessary In a country trade can lie purchased here actually lower than in Boston, at the same time there is a saving in the cost of transjiortation, and all that is necessary is that the business men of Eastern Maine should become acquainted with the business men of Portland, and the thing is done. In our ad vertising columns will be found the business cards and advertisements of some of the most reliable business men of our city, and a glance at them will be of service to our eastern friends who will, we believe, find it for their interest to visit Portland and try the marUo. here, be fore going out of the State. Letter from Mrs. Goddard. General Hospital, Us G. R. Davis, Esq: Dear Sir—Doubtless the home friends, who so generously sympathized in the object of iny recent mission in and around Portland, w ill lie glad to know that our boxes came through safely, and will to-day be opened for hospital use. You will recollect I told you Govern ment purjiosed closing the Hospitals at Win chester soon. Last week the order was carried into effect, and eighty-five of the sick and wounded there were brought here for our care and protection. Among them were twenty four of the Maine lOtii; and as friends are al ways glad to know where their invalid sons j and brothers are, I will name them. Co. A, A. L. Nkillin, J. B. Hanson, David B. Towle; Co. B, Richard Sweetser,Geo.F. Buzwell; Co I), C.W. Harmon. Wallace Milllken, D. S. Ross; Co. E, B. F. Morse, C. E. Higgins, John Chap lin Co. F, Benj. Welch, C. B. Williams, Win. H. Pearson; Co. I, E. C. Chute, W. H. War ren, George A. Gordon; Co. K,J. G. Marstou, E. T. Getchell, A. N. Dunn, J. O. Osgood, W. II. King; Band, O. B. Webb and David Blan chard. Of the alsjve, Chute and Milllken are slowly recovering from typhoid fever. The rest are comfortable and beyond especial danger unless something new supervenes. It is useless to attempt to describe the feel ing experienced when one of our 10th Maine boys comes in for a share of home charity. 1 am glad I can say “yes comrade, your mother, your sister, your w ife helped supply these com forts; enjoy them and welcome!” To-day when our boxes were received and opened, you would have imagined yourself at a New England muster, had you been here to look on. Saco, Biddeford, Vassalboro, Portland and Oxford were well represented. Even poor Hannon of Aroostook, with his one armless sleeve swinging in the wind, stood by to see what the boxes contained for the Maine boys. Among tho rest I saw three of the 1st Maine cavalay. Sister Frost’s fans found a ready market> and one Elder, of Portland, was complimented on "the understanding.” Good Mrs. Jewett's piu cushions had a splendid run. and those checkerboards were hailed with delight. In deed, slipiiers. socks, fans, pin cushions, towels and pocket handkerchiefs, in their rapid evolu tions, quite excited my admiration. It may be "all quiet along the lines of the Grand Army,” but flies and hot weather keep our bovs busy. In Baltimore I procured a barrel of soda crackers, and a hundred loaves of soft bread, and to-night we shall have a jubilee. Hard bread and lajiled fresh beef will lie upon the shelf this time, while to-morrow we intend to rejoice over a brimful kettle of hasty pudding. Our surgeon expresses great pleasure at the generous supply of clothing, etc.,and wonders if Maine can stand such a draft frequently. 1 tell him that this is the only drafting Maine will allow, and that such draft.' will be con stantly honored. Among my supplies there is one thing we, miss, and that is delicacies for the very feeble. I ought to have asked some of our sea rajs tains u»r ajar ot tamarinds, as also bespoken a supply of currant jelly, from the notable house wives who will soon lie laying up a quantity. Some kind friends put up stewed currants in bottles, but either they were not well pack ed, or fermented, for they made “a bountiful spread” through our laixes of clothing. When sent again, will you please see that they are in a l»ox by themselves. I have notice of another box on the way.— It may la; it contains the very things we lack, at least I hope so. The Another* and sisters of many of our reg iment gave me bundles for the boys. I have been able to deliver but live or six as yet, as it is almost impossible lo get transportation. I will do my best how ever to speed them on their way. I have nothing new to add concerning poor ('ashman's fate, save that federal troops still occupy the ground, and his la-t resting place is held sacred. Should you so\eminent, ami that they will Ik* enforced, would secure to tin* I'nion cause thousands of laborer*, thousands of fighting men, and million* of co-operating well wisher*. That the welfare of our country, the lives of loyal soldiers, and the happiness of loyal families all over the free States, demand the proclamation. lit solr*‘d, That every day’* delay complicates our retaiion*. both foreign ami domestic, gives the rebels strength, and is wasting hundreds of good ami true men ami it is far latter that every rein*! should per ish, than that oue more loyal soldier should die. And therefore it is that we. with entire unanimity, most respectfully and most earnestly call upon the 1’resident to actio hi* capacity as Tommamlcr-in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United .States, and immediately issue theonfer which will take from the rebels their great source of strength, while it will diminish their army by calling to the defence of their hornet large numbers of rebel officers and men. And we assure the President that in this, as in even act of his Administration, the |>eoplc of the Free Mate* will sustain the policy, while tin* whole civil ized world will applaud the Proclamation of Kmaii clpatiou.

Our Skowhegan cor respondent gave in one letter a description of that flourishing town, and a condensed ac count of its business. That letter has been copied by other papers, and gives Skowhegan a prominence it could not have obtained oth erwise. Let other towns do likewise.

Prisoners at Richmond.—A letter re ceived by his father from Mr. Edwin R. Ram- j sey of Co. A. 3d Me. regiment, states that lie is a prisoner in Richmond; that he was taken with another member of his regiment, and that they are confined in a tobacco warehouse, with, he should think, some twelve hundred other soldiers. He writes that there are in the same building Messrs. Colby and Cook of Co. A. 3d Me.; Low and Hathaway of Co. ft. 3d M.; Butler. Raymond, Burgess and Friend, of Co. K, 3d Me. There are also others from Maine companies, whose names he had not learned.—[Bath Times. The Best Recrcitino Officers.—The Hartford Post pertinently remarks that the very best recruiting officers in the country are the ladies. With their assistance, the new le vy of troops could be enlisted in two weeks.— They could exert an influence upon the young men which the young men would never dare resist. Ladies! this is the day for such unusual duty at your hands. We need not urge the arguments in the case, for they urge them selves. Limes.—One of the sweetest flowers in God’s flower garden is the white pond lily—a large hunch of which we found in our sanctum yesterday, with the compliments of our gener ous neighbors. Messrs. Crostnan A Poor. They look a little out of place amid the dusty streets of the city, but they bring with them memories of our boyhood, when we used to gather them by the armful in the little lakes nestling among the hills of old Oxford. Was'nt it sport, with trousers rolled up, to wade in the clear water and gather the freshly opened buds,—tit em blems of purity and heaven. :r* The series of great public meetings on j Boston Common last week, were completely successful in all desired respects. Immense crowds have gathered to listen to the speeches, j recruiting has been stimulated, and the public aroused to the necessity of greater exertion. It is rumored in certain quarters that I Hon. Ilcnry J. Raymond is about to retire from the editorial chnir of the New York Daily Times. Gen. McClellan has ordered that the names ol all non-commissioned officers who distinguished themselves during the battle week at Richmond, be immediately forwarded to headquarters for promotion.

That's the way to do it. jyWhen you pick berries, gentle reader, I do you eat all the nice, fat. plump, ripe ones, excepting always tile email dish you pick lor the invalids at home.

They do not hesitate to shoot down any man, even a secessionist, who accepts a pass from the authorities at New Orleans. The other day three merchants of secession procliv- j ities were taken prisoners by a guerrilla band, because they bought their goods in New Or leans. The goods were confiscated, and tile merchants were shot in cold blood. EJT-One of our correspondents, writing from New Orleans, speaks in the highest terms of Rev. J. I.

Correspondence of the Press. Camden.—A correspondent from Camden writes that tlie people of that town held an enthusiastic meeting on the 24th lust. Our correspondent says: Stirring speeches were made by Messrs. Smart. Adams, Talbot, Simonton and others, Col. John 1). Rust of the 8th Maine, now on furlough on account of Ill-health, was present and loudly called for. He said he was not a speaking man, but would give them a few words of plain talk. He urged those who could not go to the war to contribute liberally of their means to those who were willing to leave their business and go and fight the bat tles of their country, in this time of her need. His remarks were loudly applauded by the meeting and had a telling effect. Tlie meeting voted unanimously to give, as a bounty additional to those offered by the State and nation, the sum of $125. Some 15 men have already enlisted, and the full quota (50) w ill be made up in the course of a few days. Tlie work of enlisting goes bravely on. Norway. Our Norway correspondent writes as follows: On Saturday last Captains Jackson and Town called out the two Militia companies belonging to this town. After com ing together and listening to a patriotic and soul-stirring speech from Sylvanus Cobb, Jr., twenty-four men came forward and enrolled their names as recruits for the war. Tlie number required for this town is 21, therefore we have three to spare to some other town. This certainly speaks well for Norway. She has already about 80 men in the service, making now 100 who have volunteered from this town to serve their country in putting down rebellion. The 84 miserable cowards who ran away into Canada to avoid a draft, can now return, if they desire. Ilut if we could have our choice in the matter we had much rather that six or eight more of tlie same str'qie would go and join them. 1 refer to six or eight leaders who were the instigators in this move. These iw-ii .in: sun lieic, mu would run, am not age or infirmity clear them from military duty. Our town is cursed with more than an equal share of these twaddlers and rebel sympathis ers. Some of our leading men, as to property and influence, are engaged In this dirty work and have been from the beginning. This makes hard work for those who are endeavor ing to aid the government in breaking down this rebellion. But the loyal men of Norway have come to the determination that no more open treason shall he tolerated in our midst. These sympathisers with rebellion must dry up: they have said and done enough. They will be closely watched for the future. Popham Celebration.—Quite a delega tion from this city and Brunswick visited Bath yesterday, to make, in conjunction with the people of that city, the needful preparations for the approaching celebration at Fort Pop ham, at the mouth of the Kennebec. A meet ing was held at the City Hall in the evening, ol the result of which we have not heard. It was expected that an excursion would lie made to Fort Popham—12 miles Mow Bath— by the party, this forenoon, returning in sea son for the noon train. I.ATEST BY EVENING PAPERS.

The rebels in Washington sneak confidently of its capture by Jackson shortly. Herald’s Washington dispatch says the Dis trict of Columbia is infested with rebels, who are at Georgetown, where now there is no pro vost guard. They insult the flag and all Unionists. The correspondent of the Herald states from personal knowledge that constant intercourse between the rebels of Aceomac and North ampton counties, and those on the western shore of the Chesapeake Hay is kept up by canoes, carrying letters, papers and informa tion.

A company of rebel cavalry made an excur sion to Gloucester Point on Monday night.and carried off a lot of contrabands and all the male inhabitants capable of bearing arms.— They then burned a lot of ship titular, and de parted with their trophies. Similar depreda tions are being committed in the vicinity of Williamsburg by guerillas in the uniform of rebel cavalry. A man who obtained a pass in Norfolk to go to North Carolina, was watched by one of our officers, w ho arrested him as he was taking the road to Richmond.

It is reported that important papers were found on them implicating Yallandigham, who will be taken with them to Cincinnati.

MATTERS ABOUT TOWN. Street Larceny.—A man named Henry Hand was arrested yesterday noon, l>y officer Wentworth, on complaint of a tin pedlar named Neal Divine. Our tin ware friend was engaged at the moment of the theft in expa tiating upon his goods to some ladies through an open window of a house on Sumner street, and upon being informed by some children playing near, that a man had toted off his trunk, he expanded his cheat in immediate pursuit. As Middle street opened to his view, lie saw a man in the dim distance bearing a box, and Gilpin like he sped, and upon coming up with the gentleman interrogated him as follows: “I say, Mister, where did you did you get that trunk “Hey?” “When* did you get that trunk?” “I dun-no.” Officer Wentworth happening to be near, immediately took charge of the “homhre,” who, feigning to be drunk, was conducted into the presence of the Chief of Police. Upon being searched, a port-monaie was found in his possession, containing the sum of five dol lars and one miniature mitten. Probably, through “blasted hopes,” he had been led to commit the offence for which he is now held amenable to the law. A Haii Boy.—A youth named Albert Grigger, of some ten or twelve summers, was arrested on Saturday last by officer Davis, on a charge of having entered the store of Mrs. Martin on Sumner street, and feloniously ah suntuug uiriuium a nuiii ui muucj aiuuuiu ing to between $3.50 ami $5,00. Mrs. Martin states that while she was sitting in an adjoining room to that of the store, the lad entered and rapping loudly, asked her if she had eggs for sale. Mrs. M. replied that she didn’t keep the article, upon which the boy went out. Shortly after, missing her wallet from the till, she gave information to the au thorities, resulting in the capture of the lad at his father’s residence at Gorham’s corner.— When questioned, the boy stoutly denied hav ing any knowledge of the matter, hut soon however, owned that he had taken the money and had secreted the wallet in the garden.— His case will come up before the court this morning. A bad race of boys infests our city, and their cases call for summary punishment. We are informed by the police that these juvenile ma rauders are constantly stealing from the pre mises of our residents, such things as sheet lead, old brass,and in fact anything upon which they can lay their sly hands. Boys of Portland, the way of the trans gressor is hard,” and how will you feel when summoned before the police magistrate, and y»ur wickedness made known to the world The police are near you, and if you will steal, just steal away from wicked companions.— Tremble, lads—tremble Saved His Mosey.—Officer Wentworth had the good fortune to rescue a well dressed and apparently respectable mariner from the hands of land sharks, into whose clutches he would inevitably have fallen, judging from his unsteady and somewhat uncertain pace as lie endeavored to navigate through Fore street, yesterday afternoon. When brought before the marshal, the poor fellow’s brain was so muddled, that he could answer no questions, but merely muttered, look out for my money —it belongs to my wife and family.” The loo ney, amounting to the sum of one-hundred and eignty dollars, was careiuny laid aside to no given him in the morning, upon his return to consciousness. Thus it Is that many an un fortunate is cared for, while yet the light of day is about them, and before the darkness of night can lend its aid to those fiends whose business it is to pilfer from such as they. The name of of this incautious person lias come to our knowledge, but through regard for the feelings of that wife and family we refrain from publishing it. Go and sin no more.” A Runaway Horse.— “The stones did rattle underneath as if Cheapside were mad.” So runs the ballad, and so ran the horse. An animal of the equine species, feeling himself unfettered and uncurbed, except by an empty baggage wagon at his heels, dashed along up through Congress street, yesterday afternoon, at a furious rate, charging here and there up on the crossing pedestrians, causing a “ske daddle quite as gallant as that of the traitor ous down-casters.” The horse was eventu ally secured, whithout having caused any dam age other than a big” fright.” Photographs.—We have, recently been much gratified by a visit to the establishment of Messrs. Trask Lewis, Market Square’ where the public can lie photographed or am brotyped, or represented in almost any way "“^•J*-the sun, with “ease to themselves uud their constituents,” as Jenkins would say. This is a new place; but the operators are gentlemen of much skill and experience, and we commend our friends to try them, as it is a settled fact that, in these days, everybody that is anybody must be photographed. Caught at last!—We would call atten tion to those of our patrons who would pre serve their nice things pure and spotless from the inroads of that troublesome nuisance, the house fly, to the advertisement in another column,of Dr. Thos. G. Loring, Druggist, cor ner of Exchange and Federal streets, wherein he recommends to the public a wiley snare to all depredators in the insect line. The prepar ation being spread upon nice white paper at tracts the fly to its sticky surface, holding him fast, thus making him his own executioner. v.omino home.—uen. onepiey telegraphed his friends in this city last night, that he should arrive at home in this morning's train from Boston. We presume suitable arrangements have been made for his reception. We think our own officers are as worthy of honor as those from other States. w An adjourned meeting of I he officers of the ununiformed militia, will be held at the old City Hall, Market Square, this (Tuesday) evening, July 20th, at 8 o’clock. We are requested to say that the an nual Picnic of the Photographists and Amliro typists of the city will occur to-morrow, and that the saloons* throughout the city will lie closed on that day. The committee will please accept our thanks for the polite invitation re ceived to accompany them. jy The U. S. barque “Gemsbok,” will sail for Provincetown upon til first fair wind. She lias been enabled to ship some sixteen men towards her compliment. Our neighbor, Win. A. Pearce, is one of the best workmen in the State. His patrons may be sure that any work he executes will be well done. See advertisement. Served Him Kiuht.—One day last week two men, residing not a hundred miles from the town of Perry—for convenience we will call them Mr. L. and Mr. F.—met, when I,, asked F. if he intended to enlist; F. replied that he should not, but if drafted he should go unhesitatingly. “So will I," responded L.. ‘‘but if 1 go my gun shall be pointed towards the North. t'.'s patriotism could not stand this, and he told L, that if he repeated the lan guage. or anything of similar import, in his hearing, he would give him such a sound thrashing as so miserable a traitor deserved.

Enlistment papers and de scriptive lists will be forwarded as directed in General Order Mo. 105 of 1801, from this of fice. Another army order is as follows: 1st—Descriptive lists and accounts of the pay, clothing, Ac., of soldiers will never,where it can Is1 avoided. Is; given into their own hands.

Steamer State of Maine arrived from City Point, with 350 released prisoners. Every courtesy was shown them by the rebels. (Jen. McClellan visited them at Harrison’s Landing and conversed freely w ith large numbers of them. One of the soldier- said to the General that he intended to get well and come hack and take Richmond. The General remarked, “then you w ill have to return very soon.” The rebel* apologize for bringing our pris oners in baggage and cuttle cars, saying their passenger cars were engaged in carrying troops to Gen. Jackson. Our prisoners saw five trains of rebel soldiers from Petersburg to Richmond. The rebel camps arc about three and a half miles back from James river, they not liking the proximity to our gunboats. The rebels w ho burned a schooner on Friday evening, also crossed the river above Harri son's Landing and carried off 500 head of cat tle belonging to the Army of the Potomac. There are considerable reliel forces along the river, between City Point and Richmond, also at or near Petersburg. They ap|>ear to la moving the Petersburg troops north, hut we can obtain no proof that they are beyond Rich mond. Richmond is said to be in good condition. Great care is taken of the cleanliness of the streets.

POETRY. Forty Years Ago. Well, sit down clow* by the window, Kate, And talk of the days gone by, £re toil our agile forms had bent, Or sorrow bad dimmed the eye. The sun is sinking behind the hill, With the same rich golden glow That it sank to rest on the mountain. Kate, Just forty years ago. Twas at eventide I sought thy hand, In the grotto by the mill; No sound save the cricket's chirp, was heard, And thy softly-breathed, “I will.” Then a gentle bride, thy fair brow crowned With flowers as pure as snow, Thou didst give thy heart at the altar, Kate, Just forty years ago. Ah! sorritilP has traced it* lines, dear wife, On our hearts through the lapse of years, But joys we’ve tasted so pure the while. As to make us forget our tears. And though life’s sand are well-nigh run, And my pulse beats faiut and slow, Hove thee as fondly now, dear Kate, Aai° rty years ago. MISCELLANY. David'. Perplexity* The fishermen of the north of the Frith of Forth have always been looked upon by those of the south shore as little more than savages, and very unpolished. At one time a heavy north-easterly storm drove a Buekhaven boat toward the Dunbar coast, and during the de tention of several days one of the north shore boys fell violently in love with a strapping damsel of Dunbar, whom he ultimately mar ried. The young bride did tier best to instruct her husband in the purer language, ami less jaw-breaking dialect of the aristocratic south shore; but he was a very slow pupil, as the se quel will serve to show. In process of time a son was born to the lov ing pair, and all in due order a second youth, the very image of his mother, made his ease known in the house of liiis fattier, shortly alter which the following colloquy was held: “Noo, Dauvid, ye’re gawn to the minister’s to see about the baptism, but mind, ye’re no to apeak about the bairn that’s a vulgar word— just like ye folk o' Fife. Eh, mou, gin 1 had ye ower at Dunbuar, 1 wad mak a man o' ye! bit Dauvid, my man, ye’re to say to the minis ter, ‘Gin ye plase. Maister I*-k, will ye come down this e’enin. and baptceze the in fant?' Mind, noo, Dauvid, no the bairn, bit MiT- iuinili. David looked with wonder on his young wife; at her learning and good breeding, and he loved her more than ever. But the word iufaut was new to him; it was too soft and sweet for his untutored lips to lisp; but true to his love, he tried it, and promised her faith fully to try it again, and muttering it over and over—infant, infant infant—look his way to wards the minister’s house. But, ere he readi ed it, David had lost the flow of the syllables, and before lie had recovered his preseuce of mind lie found himself in the minister's hall. The worthy minister, half suspecting what had brought the flshermau along so early, said— “Well David, how are all down the way “Brawly, sir, thank ye, we're as weel as can be expected.’’ “Ail!” said the minister, “has there been anything i’ the wind. David?” “Ou, ay, sir. the wife's been down.” “Ay, Davil! It'il be a lassie this time?" “No, sir,” replied David, “it’s not a lassie.” “Hoot, man,” said the minister, “another lad die Ye’ll be made up we’ laddies, if ye gang on at this rate.” “Weel-a-wat, no,” said David, “it’s not a laddie, aither.” “David, David!" asked the minister in sore astonishment, “what Is it man, if it’s neither a laddie nor a lassie “Weel. sir,” replied David, “as sure ns deatli I dinna mind, but 1 think the wife ca’ed it an elephant.” A Catch.—The following description of a catch, by Dr. Calcott. is given in the Musical World. The words run thus: "All! how, Sophia, can you leave Your lover, and of hnpe'bereave! Cio, fetch the Indian's bcrrowed plume, Yet, richer far than that, your bloom; I’m but a lodger iu your heart, And more than oue, 1 fear, have part.” Now, in reading the above, there is nothing particular to be seen; but when the words are sung as Dr. Calcott intended they should lie, there is much to hear; for one singer seems to render the Urst three words thus—“A house on lire;” repeating pliia, phia, with a little ad- mixture of cockneyism, lire! lire! Another wavv, taiw uuv mnuij, UU iriVU l lie eilJ’HU*.**, fetch the engines,” while a third coolly savs, “I’m but a lodger, I'm but a lodger,” by is a young lady with a neat head of hair likely to take an affectionate leave of you Because she knows how to make a nice part ing. A roaring tornado, unrooting houses anti up rooting forests, may Ite less calamitous than a low whisper from the Ups of a malicious wo man. We ascertain the qualities of a hell by ring ing it. A young man had hotter ascertain the qualities of a belle before ringing her. In a church in Scotland the singers execu ted a fugue, and the hearers were astonished at the following entomological lesson: ‘•Anti we'll catch the flee, And we'll catch the flee, And we’ll catch the flee-ting hour." 2ST*“A great lie,” says the poet Oabbe, “is like a great fish on dry land; it may fret and fling and make a frightful pother, but it can not hurt you. You have only to keep still and it will die of itself.” Note.—First class in sacred music stand up. “How many kinds of music are there?” “Three, sir—long metre, short metre, and metre (her) by moonlight alone.” THE MARKETS.

PHOSPEO T u:s OF TIIE PORTLAND DAILY PRESS: EDITED BY JOHN T. GILMAN, recently of the Batti Times, and JOSEPH B. HALL, of the Aroostook Herald. The Portland Daily Press is intended to be an enterprising, vigorous and lire Daily Morning Paper, containing the latest and fullest news by mail and telegraph. THE MAINE STATE PRESS Is a large, well-filled, carefully edited, and neatly printed weekly paper, intended specially for general circulation throughout the State. Both of the above named papers will labor to inculcate, in no dictatorial spirit, sound political prin ciples and to promote the material interests of the State, and of the City of Portland as its interests twine with, and arc inseparable from, those of the State. Politically, the Preps will give an earnest, cordial, and generous support to the administration of Abra ham Lincoln, who in little more than one year, has indellibly impressed himself upon the nation's heart as an incorruptible patriot, an inflexible Chief Mag istrate, and an honest man; the ability of whose ad ministration is most signally exhibited, not 'only in the matchless operations of our army and navy, but iu the unparalleled fact that, in the midst of this gigantic rebellion, our Government securities are selling at a premium. It will zealously labor to ex hibit and defend sound Republican principles, and, inasmuch as political organizations have become a necessity in carrying into effect great principles of political economy, and inasmuch as ,the Republican party which, in the brief chapter of its history already written, has successfully refuted the allegation of its enemies that its designs and tendencies were sec tional. ami triumphantly vindicated its claim to a just and liberal Nationality, has remained steadfast iu its devotion to the Union while other organizations have so generally become infected with a disloyal spirit, and inasmuch as it is the only party which at present seems competent to conserve the great prin ciples underlying all free Governments, the Press will cordially sustain the organization of that party, not with a design to foster a mere partizan spirit, but in the full couiciousuess that it embodies the truo principles upon which our government rests, and af fords the only available means of accomplishing such results as a lofty patriotism imperatively demands. It will neither seek nor endorse any compromises with men iu rebellion against the laws of the land, hut will inculcate loyalty to the great ceittral idea of all true democracy—that the majority must govern. Upon the exciting question of Domestic Slavery, it may In* proper to say, that while the Press will sanc tion no interference with the constitutional or legal rights of loyal men, it will neither apologize for an evil which constitutes the foulest blot upon our national character, nor attempt to resist the tide of events that teems destined to sweep from existence an institution which is the greatest anomaly iu a free government. The emancipation of slavery in the federal Capital, the co-operation of the Federal with the lo\al State governments, to secure gradual eman cipation, as proposed by President Lincoln, and all other constitutional measures looking to a peaceful removal of our greatest “moral, political and social evil,” will flud iu the Press a generous and hearty support. While thus distinctly announcing the general course proposed for the Press, and intending that, alike in war and in peace—in our couutrv's peril and in its triumph, it shall speak with no uncertain voice, we do not lose sight of the fact that true men have hon estly differed, and that, coming by different routes they now find themselves travelling parallel roads; and, instead of seeking to widen the differences be tween those who are required by a common patriot ism to act in concert, the Press will labor hopefully to encourage uuity of purpose and harmony of act ion among all loyal men. Aside from its political department, the Press will I be earnestly devoted to the advancement of the best j interests of the city and State. Its Local Depart- j ment will in no case bo neglected. Particular atten- 1 tion will be given to the Commercial and Maritime interests. It will be the aim of its conductors to make it an indispensable institution of the State, and a ge nial and welcome visitor in every work-shop, count ing-house, and family circle. The Editors, not un known to the people of Maine, will give their undivi ded energies to the work before them, and labor to make such a paper as me city ot rortJaml, the State of Maine, am! the exigencies of the times demand— oue that shall be true to the popular instincts.
