THE DAILY PRESS. P)RTI.ASD, MAiaa, g V Friday Morning, Feb. 10,1865.

E«a«i{Hg M®**®*1 »H F««r Pat®®* The Campaign from a Bebel Standpoint. The Richmond editors indulge in many spec ulations in relation to the plan of the cam paign which Grant has in view. They are exceedingly troubled and anxious to kcow what is to be their late. There is a deep-seat ed fear in their hearts that something is going "to happen to Richmond. Evidently they feel unsale. Grant, they say, continues to keep up tho pressure on their capital, andjconhnes the army of Northern Virginia to its breast works. In their opinion, Grant will seize the first favorable moment to sally out on the Danville road and cut off an important source of supplies. No doubt he will embrace the first opportunity to effect so important a pur pose. We don’t blame them for feeling uneasy, being thus hedged in, and their best army rendered useless for any purpose except to guard their capital. Grant’s aggressive de signs, they fear, are chiefly directed against two important .uniats-in South Carolina— against Osjtrleston—so long besieged so ,^uiment In the previous history of the war— so conspicuous in Southern politics, and so cherished in the affections of the Confenerate people, and against Branchvlile, a mere geo graphical point, and yet important as being the key to Charleston, and the gateway for supplies which come from the Gulf States. Such, they fear, are the objects of Sherman’s present operations, and hence they conclude, with some approximate certainty, the destina tion of Thomas's army, a large portion of which they believe has gone down the Missis sippi, by the Gulf, to reinforce Sherman. Another crochet has got Into their heads. It is reported that quite a large force has pass ed Harper’s Ferry, in the direction of the Cuesapsake, to reinforce Grant. The object of this additiou to Grant’s forces is to enable Jdm to make a demonstration from his left wing upon Lee’s line of supplies simultaneously With Sherman’s movements in South Carolina. These additional forces may put it into the power of Grant and Sherman to make formid able aggressive movements. Until recently, they feared that Thomas, at the head of a large army, was to cross from Chattanooga to Knoxville, through East Ten nessee aud South Western Virginia, and to bear down on Lynchburg, taking Richmond In the rear. Believiug this General has de scended the Father of Waters, they feel some what relieved and hope to be Bpared awhile longer. Bat after all they are fearful that somehow the forces of Grant and Shermau, will at last be united, and that Richmond will be the prize they will seek and obtain. Such fears may be well founded; for Sherman has a formidable army which may not find work enough ia South Carolina to detain them any length of time. This General has a good deal of the dath in him, and is cot prone to si t down before cities, towns, or tonifications and waste time in fruitless calculations. He “marches on,” and, If necessary, makes a flank movement, deceives hi3 enemy and “turns up” somewhere else. We are not surprised, after the experience they have had, that they should Indulge some fearful apprehensions in relation to Slierm&n’s movements. His march through their “shell” thus far has given them a very bitter taste of his quality. And Grant may not wait for Sherman to Join him before he makes some demonstrations about Richmond. It would be a remarkable coincident if Richmond and Charleston should fall about the same time. But we will not indulge too much In specula tions. Events are hurrying along quite as fast as can reasonably be expected. In suih times as these men learn faster than in more quiet periods, aud these Bieluuood editors would act more wisely if they would publish less braggardism aud occasionally stop to “take an observation.” Since the above was written we learn that Grant is on the move and the quiet about Richmond has been broken. And the. signs are that severe fighting is about to take the place of the long rest both armies have en loyed. Lee’s forces must be occasionally stirred Up to ensure the success of Sherman. Grant don’t Intend to permit Lee to send any of his forces into the Palmetto State, or else where, unless he evacuates Richmond, and in that case Grant would be very likely to follow him. _ Rumors have reached Washington, that the rebels seriously intend to leave to their fate Richmond, Charleston, Wilmington, and the whole coast line. It h said that Lee favors such a policy, as the defense of Richmond on ly Injures and demoralizes his 'army and pre vents him from checking the progress of Sher man. It is said the recent movements of Grant were made for the purpose of ascer taining whether Lee had sent a portion of his forces to South Carolina and Georgia. One thing is quite certain: the remaining strength of the rebellion lies in Lee’s army, and the rebels repose more confidence in Lee than in any other man. He lias recently ris en a head and shoulders above Jeff. Davis, aud towers abovo any bile in rebeldom. No doubt he Is their best man, and Grant’s pro grarnne is to keep Lee aud his forces in and about Richmond untit the proper time comes to strike the fatal blow. Lee and his army are now the supporting pillars of the Confed eracy, and when these are knocked away, the whole edifice will tumble into rains, and the union sentiment of the Soiifh will breathe in a freer atmosphere. May God hasten that hap py time, for the sake of the people both North and South. Personal.—We shall take no notice of the constant flings of a malignant character, made at us personally, so long as they involve no one but ourselt; but when other citizens are involved the matter assumes importance. In the Courier last evening is an attempt to con vict us of inconsistency on the bounty ques tion, and we are charged with having, in 1862 looked upon the Boldiers simply as machines In the hands of officers to qxecute orders,” be cause in the legislature we opposed a £22 boun ty to 10,000 men who had been enlisted, and wen already m the service; and the Courier says there were men mean enough at that time to oppose” such a bounty, -thus depriv ing the soldiers of this small pittance,”—a bounty amounting in the aggregate to £200 000. The “mean men” from this city, who op posed that bounty, were John Lynch, Jacob McLsllan, Benj. Kingsbury, jr.,aud Joseph W. Dyer. A large majority of the House roved to b3 of the same “mean” character, including the Representatives from Saco, Biddeford, Lewiston, Bath, Brunswick, Auguste, Bangor, Bockland, Belfast, &c., Ac. We are perfectly satisfied to be classed in such company. iy “Dixon" telegraphs to the Boston Jldver titer, that notwithstanding all the precautions taken to prevent it, the question was raised in the Couventiun 0f the two houses about the vote of Louisian* and Tennessee. Senator Cowan thought they ought to be laid before the Joint oouveution of the two houses for consider ation, but Senator Farwell and Representatives Cox and Stevens raised the point, which th. Vice President decided was well taken, that the rules under which the convention was acting, jWjcluded such a course. Sensation Hovel* Of *U th* Instrumentalities which Satan brings to hear upon human society, perhaps there is jiot one so potent for evil a* bad books. It Is not at all a matter of wonder that those stern, uncompromising bishops and cardinals of the olden time, used to make bon fires in the public squares, of the hated vol umes whose teachings they believed so dan gerous to their flocks. Grant that they were mistaken some'imes as to the tendency of the doctrines, and always as to the best manner of contending against them, yet they certainly were not mistaken as to the Immense power of the engines they sought to destroy. And perhaps no thoughtful person can stand at the counter ol one of our cheap book and period ical depots, and look over the wares there ex posed for sale, which constitute almost the entire reading of a large class in the commu nity, without wishing that he had the power for once to imitate the conduct of these fathers of the church. We have an abiding faith in the advantages of a Free Press, and in its ability to correct Us own abuses, and to fur nish sufficient checks and balances for any mischiefs to which it may give rise; but we confess that we have olten wished we might deliver up the whole mass of yellow-covered trash into the hands of the Licentiate Pero Perez, and Master Nicholas, the barber, who made such pitiless havoc with the library of Don Quixote. It will, of course, be perceived that In speaking of “bad books,” we do not refer chiefly to those which are openly irreligious 'or immoral. Such are, comparatively speak ing, harmless, for their unmistakable charac ter excludes them from all respectable circles, and the dullest can estimate them as they de serve. But what we more especially allude to Is the species ot fiction known as the “sensa tion school.” The variety of publications embraced in this class is very wide, and the degree of talent employed ranges from the lowest to the highest, but all are eagerly de voured. “Stella Stokes,” and the author of “Aurora Floyd,” “Middleton Mudfog, Esq.,” and the author of “The Woman in White,” and the “Strange Story,” have each their cir cle of admiring readers. Then there is an In termediate class, otter the productions of well known writers, who, sheltered under some safe nom de plume, make more money on these unowned progeny of their brains than on the nobler efforts which are the foundation of their fame. They all abound in startling inci dents aud complicated situations In rags and misery, jewels and upholstery, in fascinating pirates and beautiful fiends, In murder, rob bery and unlawful love. They deal with char acters intense and exceptional, with perverted motives and morbid emotions, with a moral atmosphere as feverish and malarious as a Bo man marsh or a Mississipi river-bottom. Their Influence upon youthful aud uninstruct ed minds is incalculable. By familiarizing the imagination with horrors they blunt the ten sibilitd.es; by investing the guilty with a ro mantic charm, they soften the natural detesta tion of guilt; by depicting the worst criminal as the creature of circumstance, and the child of “evil destiny,” they unsettle the sense of right and wrong, and prodace the vaguest no tions of moral accountability. If any Ofie doubts this let him study the manifestations ol maudlin sympathy which often follows some brutal murderer in real life, and the ef forts made to screen him from the just penal ty of the law. He will And that such philan thropists constantly adopt the spirit and the reasoning of the sensation novels. A recent English paper says: “The great error of the sensational litera ture of the present day is this: Some most extraordinary character, some inconceivable act, some unparalleled crime, Is held up before the world, and made as it were an example for imitation. An isolated real case, or one originating solely from a morbid imagination, is represented to be in character with the times, and to be in no way strange to the morality of the hour. A tissue of romance is pronounced to be the law of life,—the life of men and women as they are. And the im pression left on pernslug such works is this, that ths story is by no means an unusual one, and that many commit the most atrocious crimes and enjoy the fruit of them for years.” To be burdened with a guilty secret seems a rather interesting thing, on the whole; and to devote one’s whole mind and means and life, to the wreaking of a long cherished and elaborately planned veDgence, Is not repre sented as an ignoble cr extraordinary employ ment of superior powers. In what we have said we would not be un derstood as preaching a crusade against all novels Indiscriminately. There are works of fiction which embody tho purest morality, the profoundest philosophy, the tenderest humani ty of the age in which we live. Such can never be injurious in their effects; on the contrary, their elevating aud refining Influence is of great and lasting value. But the most careful and constant discrimination should be exorcised in selecting, and everything which approaches the b!ood-and-thunder school canuot be too sedulously avoided. And, after all, the only efficient safeguard against danger is to culti vate a taste for more solid and substantial food. A fair proportion of good works of Ac tion may be harmless, but the exclusive read ing of them will not “cultivate the mind” any more than a diet of sugar candy will feed and strengthen the body. If we would be ed ucated in any wortby sense of the word, we must read books whieh task and stimulate, as well as amuse the mind. The taste for such reading, once acquired, will grow with what it (beds ou, and afford an unfailing source of pleasure and of profit. Incidents about Home. TOO POOB TO BE ECONOMICAL. A contented mind is a source of perpetual joy. Discontent is unhappiness itself. With a competent support for Mb family, other things being equal, a man can enjoy as much as can be enjoyed in this world. If uneasi ness with his present income leads him to change his calling with the hope of bettering his condition, ten chances to one if he does not fall. A man whose family is now in this city was in a busisesa twenty years ago which gave them a comfortable support. His income from this source and from some real estate which he owned, though not promising a rap id accumulation of wealth, rendered his cir cumstances quite easy. Thus things contin ued for about six years. After this the idea of goiug to Australia and making a fortune in a very short time, took full possession of his mind. Concluding to go, ho made a disposition of all his available property, and providing for Ms family, after proper arrangements he sailed, and in due time reached his place of destination and commenced business. For two years letters and occasional drafts for money *vere received by his wife. One year passed, and neither letters nor money came. Not wishing to be dependent, she went to Boston and for one year supported herself and family by work as a millinef. In a village about fifty miles from Boston, there being an opening, she went into business for herself and for a time did very well. While there, her husband, who had been gone about seven yean*, returned with his brother. He had been to California and Oregon, and while re turning unexpectedly met his brother on board the steamer a.t San Francisco, who was also returning home. He remained with his iamily three months, aBd wished them to go with him to California’, but not haviog meaus sufficient to take them all, he returned alone. Less than a year after he sent the money, but his wife was not in a situation to leave then. The money which he sent was required to pay the expenses of her illness, and shortly after he was taken sick with erysipelas himself which prevented send ing more. A year ago last spring he came back again and staid awhile, but had not suc ceeded well enough to taka a}l of his family with him. While she was in business one thing occur red which has proved the cause of her pres ent poverty. Going to Boston with money to buy her goods for cash, the firm with which she traded persuaded her, against her own judgment, to get in debt for a much larger stock of goods than she intended to buy, tell ing her to fake her own time to make pay ment in. When the goods were sent an agent went with them, who sucreeded in getting a mortgage oi her goods, adroitly including her furniture. The firm failed, and the mortgage was foreclosed. Being close-minded, and thinking all was lost, she took her family and returned east to her father’s house. A little better acquaintance with things, or had she asked advice and assistance of friends, her goods might have been saved. But all was sold, and nothing remained for her. Not wishing to be dependent, she renewed her ef forts to support her family, and last spring came to this city for that object. Ou account of sickness of herself and child she has been able to do but little herself. Her chief de pendence has been on her eldest daughter, who works steadily by the week. But the high price of provisions has not kept them from being destitute of many of the necessa ries oflife. This woman of whom I am writing, is a la dy in the true sense of the word. She has never asked lor help, though nobody Beems better to appreciate it. A kind-hearted wo man made her situation known to me. No complaint of poverty escapes her Ups, but if you inquire into her circumstances she will freely tell yon. Her life for the past fourteen yeaip has been full of trials. Her love for her family and her faith in God have kept her from sinking beneath them. A full statement of all the incidents of her life would fill a not very small volume. In her case we are strikingly reminded of the saying—“too poor to be economical.” The best shoes must be worn in wet weather, for there is no money to buy rubbers; the best dress must be put on, for it is the only dress owned; the best bonnet, too, for there is no other, and no umbrella to shield it{ the stove door is broken, and fuel consumes faster than it otherwise would, and it cannot be mended; fifteen hundred pounds of coal is equal to a cord of bast bard wood, but a stove for burn ing coal cannot ba procured; flour by the barrel is cheaper than by the dollar’s worth, but money enough cannot be saved to buy a barrel. The eldest daughter, of whom I have spo ken, U a modest, beautiful, educated young lady, inheriting the energy of her mother, tak ing hold of work for their support, for which she is uot properly fitted, with a commendable spirit. Yoa would not thiuk, if you were .to pass her in the street, that she dwelt in a home of straitened circumstances, and that some of these cold winter nights there was not bedding enough to keep them warm. Nearly a year has passed since anything was heard from the husband. Whether dead or alive is not known. Discontent with a competence has ended in disappointment and poverty. It is hoped that the prospects of the family will ere long brighten, and that they will be able to obtain for themselves an ample support. O. P. T. Letter from the Empire State. Albany, N. Y. Feb. 7,1866. To the Editor of the Prtet: BREACH OF PROMISE. An instance of unexplained nonfeasance is now affording the gossips generally, and an cient maidens particularly, a rare opportuni ty of indulging in their favorite amusement. A young man of hitherto good standing, has, during the last three years, been paying his addresses to a young lady, accomplished and beamiful, daughter of a well known and highly respected merchant of this city. His suit appears to have been accompanied with success, and the day was fixed in which he was to be made happy. The clergyman had been secured, the bride’s-maids elected, the guests iuvited, the presents of silver and gold had been deposited for inspection of all inter ested, the brides apparel and all the wedding paraphernalia arranged at great expense for the marriage which was appointed to take place on Sunday week. At the hour fixed upon, the clergyman, guests, wedding paraphernalia all were there, all awaiting the commencement of the ceremony. But there was one thing lacking—one thing very essential to the solem nization of the marriage compact—a bride groom. When last seen by the young lady, there was nothing unusual noticed in the ap pearance of the yonng man. He seemed not to be lacking in eagerness for the comiDg event. So of course the assembled gnests were lively with conjectures, and many were the maledictions poured forth for the benefit of the absent young man. The bride-elect, as might be expected, was highly excited. Her reason was nearly dethroned. The people de parted without the wedding. «On Monday morning the enraged father called upon the young man for an explaoar tion. None satisfactory was given. High words ensued and they were on the point of attempting to inflict some mortal injury upon each other, when friend* interfered and pre vented the commission of a crime. On Tues day morning the aggrieved party commenced an Mtion for breach_of promise—damages $10,000. Of course the sympathies of people are with the young lady, and It is confidently hoped that the jury will give her the verdict in loud damages. Your correspondent was familiar with a similar transaction on the part of a young Oapt. A., of Yarmouth, some few years since. But I am not aware that he was ever made to suffer, except in the opinion of all good and true people; though his life would have been hardly safe in the vicinity of the young lady’s residence, had he ever been seen there after ward, so great was the indignation of the young men of the village of the young lady’s residence. A NEW CAPITOL. In a former letter to the Press, allusion was made to the fact that the Capitol of the great Empire State was hardly adequate to the wants of the great amouut of business neces sarily transacted within its walls. The Capi tol of Maine is a greater ornament to the State, and by far more convenient. I am hap py to say, however, that a movement is on foot, to erect a structure which will be an hon or to the great State oi New York and a credit to the nation. A model and diagrams of the proposed Capitol are now on exhibition in the State Law Library. The model alone is said to have cost the architect, Rembrandt Lock wood, Esq., of New York city, $1,600, and to have afforded employmtnt to four men four, months; yet it is a small affair, being not much higher than an ordinary table. It is to be constructed of white marble qu&ried at East Chester, near New York city. Some idea may be obtained of its dimensions and character from the following: Front 312 feet. Height of the dome 319 Base of the dome j40 Height or the dome inside, from the third story 160 The general form is nearly square. The style is pure Homan Corinthian. The dome, like that of the Capitol at Washington, is to be built of Iron, aud the height, it will be no ticed, is 23 feet greater than the U. S. Capitol and 100 leet more than that of Bunker Hill monument. On either side of the steps lead ing to the main entrance, are to be two gigan tic equestrian statues representing peace and war. in front on either side of the walk, will he statues, in marble, of Fulton, the projector of Steam navigation, and De Witt Clinton, the father of the Hew York Canal system. The building, without any furniture, will cost $3,006,000. The Capitol extention at Washington, it will be remembered cost about $15,OCO,O0O. The site Is not excelled by any in the country, which Is nearly where the old Stata house now stands. Hanes. Glimpses of the Oapitol. Augusta, Feb. 8,1866. The reception of the Intelligence that Mis souri had, on the 7th, followed close in the wake of other States in adopting the consti tutional amendment, was yesterday received in our Legislature with great joy. That the States of Maine and Missouri should, on the same day, sanction this grand advance in the national seale of being, was a most striking coincidence. In 1820 these two States came into the Union together. One was a necessi ty to the other in the facile Northern policy of that day. So strong was the gripe that the Slave power had upon the throat of the free North—more than forty years ago—that free Maine could not be constituted a State, unless she bore into the Union, upon her herculean shoulders, slave Missouri. This was the behest of the austere men of the South in Congress. They never agreed upon a step in advance, to insure the eternity ofhnman slavery, in which they did not succeed, until they fired upon Sumter! Of course they succeeded in adding a Slave State to counterbalance free Maine in the councils of the nation. Hence the “Mis souri Compromise,” which for more than thir ty years was a sort of barrier to the black and surging wave oi slavery roiling north and west. But, alas for the princes whose regality lay in the ownership of human flesh! One of the prime causes of all their woes arose, when in their arrogance they said, “we will submit to these restraints no longer. These barriers most be swept away! The lords of this fan land are not to be hedged in by trammels im posed by our fathers.” Never, in all history, was the text more completely Illustrated by public polity, Whom the Gods would destroy, they first make mad,”—than In the acts of this infatuated peo ple The year 1856 was the year, in God’s good time, when the surging waves of sin in this direction, were to be rolled in upon its perpetrators,—when the Bed Sea, into which they had dashed to seize and bind and enslave on territory before free,—should roll back up on them, as the ragiag of Niagara in Its an griest moods, and swallow them and their cherished sin in its terrible vortex! Is it any cause of wonder, then, when the news came that Missouri had come up to the work—with less opposition even than Maine —that shouts should go up from the Capit 1, which made the welkin ring? And on the same day, too 1 Think of that 1 Shackled to gether, as they were, lor the gcpursed pur poses of making slavery tolerable and sooth ing, more than forty years ago, in one day the chain was broken, and they both go whirling down the track of time, shouting pseans for freedom an4 their great deliverance I The absorbing bill, in a business line, has reached the Senate;—I mean the Bounty bill for volunteers. For, really, on the bill hang the facilities of obtaining oar quota. There were many minds in that body on the subject. In that respect they agree with the House.— Quite a debate ensued. The “paper credits,” as they are called, were received with more favor than in the House. Even the commuta tion system of former days found one to do it honor, and in a Republican Senate! The Bill was passed to be engrossed, with amendments—which, of course, carry it back to the House for concurrence, when it may expect to be farther changed from its original beauty. The House yesterday got up quite a debate on the question of how the school money due the plantations on the St. John should be paid; whether it should be retained for taxes, when these French settlers are negligent in this respect,—and there is no question but they are quite too much so,—or whether they should have the money for the schools, and the taxes be collected in the ordinary way. Mr. Weston led the school party in debate, and Mr. Williams those who went for the taxes being paid, and no favor to the Frenchman.— It was a smart skirmish, reaching almost to a pitched battle. Bat the School fund was at last preserved intact; Mr. Weston won the victory, holding the field with dying colors, while Mr. Williams submitted to the fortunes of war in his usual graceful manner. For a small- matter, it produced an able debate.— Common education and the welfare of the children prevailed, and carried extra privi leges to a class of disloyal people, who do not lift so much as their finger to help the country that protects them, in its need. I doubt very much the soundness of the ac.tion of the House. Gov. Williams had the right, but he lacked men, and sq^e was beaten—a common event in war; generally success is on the side of the heaviest battalion. Pelham. Leisglature of Maine. SENATE.

Grant’* few flank Movement—Retreat ofthe Enemy in front of live M Corpe—The fed eral Advance f irmly Held. New Yoke, Feb. 9. The Herald’s City Point dispatch of the 7th says the enemy abandoned his ground in front of the 2d corps, and left his dead for us to bury. We still hold, and intend to hold, all the ground in the direction of Hatcher’s run. Our losses yesterday and the day before in killed and wounded, were between 250 and 300 in the 2d corps, and about 500 In the 5th Corps. It is reported that the cavalry at Dinwiddle Court House captured twenty of the enemy’s wagons aDd-one hundred horses. It is gener ally observed that the rebels don’t light so well as formerly.

John B, Brown, “in memory of his deceased son James Olcott Brown, and of his deep interest In the cause of education and the general diffusion of its bless ings and benefit,” has given to Jacob McLel lan, Mayor; Henry P. Lord, Treasurer, and Joseph C, Noyes, Chairman of the School Committee, of this city, and to their several successors In said offices, the sum of $5000 in State of Maine bouds, payable in 25 years with six per cent, interest, for the purpose of es tablishing a fund the interest of which is to bo devoted as follows: 1st. To apply a portion of the annual income to the purchase of silver medals to be called the “Brown Memorial Medal]” to be resented to the scholars in the Portland High School, annually. The medals to be divided equally among the boys and girls, and to be awarded by the Trustees to the best scholars of not less than one years standing at the time of their graduation. 2d. To the establishment in Bowdoln Col lege, of four scholarships to be called the “Brown Memorial Scholarship,” the annual value ot each to be $50 to the year 1875; and from and after that year to bs $75 each until the principal of the fnnd shall amount to $7,500; then and forever after the whole an nual income of the fund, after deducting the cost of the medals, is to be divided among the scholarships—one fourth part to each. f rom rstto to ioio six meuais are to oe pur chased annually to be distributed among the graduates at the High School—three for the boys and three for the girls. From 1875 to 1885, eight medals are to be provided an nually—four for the boys and four for the girls. After 1885, and forever, ten medals are to be purchased annually for suoh die trlbution—five for the girls and five for the boys. j The first scholarship In Bowdoin College is j to be established in 1866, and at the olose of that collegiate year, and every succeeding year the annual value of said Scholarship is to be paid by the Trustees to the best scholar in the Freshman class who graduated at the Port land High School, after having been a member thereof one year, The second Scholarship is to be established in 1867, and is to be paid to the best scholar in the Sophomore class—a graduate of the Port land High School. The third Scholarship is to be established in 1868, and to be awarded to tho best scholar in the Junior class, who (ball have been a graduate of the Portland High School. The fourth Scholarship is to be established in 1869, and is to be awarded to the best scholar in the Senior class, who shall have been a graduate of tljp Portland High School. If there should be no such scholars at Bow doin College, the amount of the scholarship is to be added to the fund until the principal amounts to $7,500. After that, if there should not be in any class a person entitled to the scholarship, the amount thereof is to be applied by the Trustees to the founding, or to the increasing, of a Library for the Portland High School. This endowment is most gene rous, and speaks well for the motives that prompted it. The donor’s son was a graduate of Bowdoin College, and loved and respected his Alma Mater. We can hardly conceive how a father could better cherish and honor the me mory of a beloved son, and at the same time furnish incentives to American scholarship, than by making su'ch a donation. “How far that little oandle throws his beams: So eulnes a good deed in a naughty world.’’ The Public Schools of the City.

POETBY. X«r th* Prett: Thu Released. The prisoner pined in fevered dreams, r i Ouce more the light to hail; ▲ud now across his cell it streams, And e'er his forehe.id pale. The prisoner pined in silence long, Onee more the birds to. hear; And now their free and happy songs Are bursting on his ear. The prisoner, bound with cruel chain, Had ouged his home to see j And now his life hath come again— Once more le standeth free.

Toe instances are gives according to the beat information; but no increased pay will be allowed should tney be greater than advertised if the points tube supplied are correctly stated. Bidders must inform themselves on this point, and also io reference to the weight of the mail, tbe condition of roads, hills, streams, Ac., and all bill bridges ferries, or obstructions of any kind by which expense may be incurred' No claim fur additional pay, based on such ground, can be coo ride red ner for alleged mistakes or misapprehension as to the degree of serviev; nor for bridges destroyed, ferries discontinued, or other obstruction* in creasing distance, occurring during contract term. Offices e.tabiished after tins adveriiaement is haued, and also during the emit reel term, ere to be viaifed without extra pay, if the distance be not increased. 11 Bidders*are cautioned to mail their pro poealt la time to reach the depart meat by the day and hour named, (3 p.m., March 30.) far bids re cetved alter that time will not Is considered in competition with a bid of reasonable amount received in time. Neither can bid* be considered which are without the guarantee required by law and a certificate of the sufficiency of such guarantee. l‘i Bidders should first propose for service strictiy according to the ad vertuemeut, and then, if they denre, separately for different service and if tbe (regular bid be the lowest offered for the advertised service, tbe other proposition* may be considered. 13. There should befbul one route bid for in a proposal. Consolidated or combination bids, (“proposing on# sum far two ormore routes^) are forbidden by law, and cannot be considered. 1 14.

Altered bid* should not be submitted; nor should bite once submitted be withdrawn. No withdrawal of a bidder or guarantor will be allowed unless the withdrawal is dated and received before the last day for re ceiving proposal*. Each hid must be guaranteed by two responsible persons. The bid and guarantee should be signed plainly with tbe lull name of each per Thp department reeerves tho right to reject any bid which may be deem ed extravagant, and also to disregard tbe bids of failing contractor* and bidden. 16. The bid should be sealed, superscribed “Mail Proposals, State of Maine,” addressed “Second Assistant Postmaster General, Contract Of fice,” and sent by mail, not by or to an agent; and postmasters will uot eucloae proposals (pr letters of any kind) in their quarterly returns. 17: The contracts are to be executed and returned to the department by or before the 1st day qf July, 1865; but the service must be begun on that day, or on the next mail day after it, whether the contract* be exe cuted or sou Transfers of contract*, or of Interest in contracts, are foittdden by law, and consequently cannot be allowed. Bidders will therefore take notice that they will be expected in perform the service accepted to them through the whole term of tbe contract. 18. Postmasters at offices on or near railroads, but more than eighty rods from a station, will, inumdialely after tbe 30th er March next, re port their exact distance from the nearest station, aud how they are other wise supplied with the mail, to enable the Postmaster General to direct a m.iii-meraenger supply from tbe 1st of July next. It. Section eighteen of an act of Coogrem approved March 3,1845, provides that contract* for the Ira importation of the mail shall be let, “in every caw, to the lowest bidder tendering sufficient guarantees for failbiul performance, without other reference to the mode of such transportation than may be necewary to provide far tbe due celerity, certainty and se curity or such transportation." Under this law, bids that propose to transport the mail# with “celerity, certainty and security* basing been decided to be ths only legal bids, are construed as providing for lU en tire mail, however large, and whatever may be ths mods of conveyance neesssary to insure Us ^celerity, certainty and security," and wilt have ths preference over all others, and no others u>iU be considered. £0. A modification of a bid io any of its essential terms is tantamount to a new bid, and cannot be received, so aa in interfere with regular com petition, after the last hour set for receiving bide. Making a new hid, wUh guarantee aad certificate, is the only way to modifying a preview 21. Postmaster* are to be careful not to certify the eulfieiency ol guarantors or sureties without knowing that they are perron* of suffi cient responsibility; a disregard of this instruction by postmasters is a violation of their oath of offwe, subjecting diem to an immediate re moval. All bidders, guarantors and sureties are disiioctiy notified that on a failure to enter into or perform the contracts for the service proponed for in the accepted bids, tbeir legal liabilities wlil be enforced against them. 22, Present contractors, and persona known at tbe Department must equally with other*, procure guarantors and certificates of their sufficiroey substantially m the forma above prescribed. The certificate of sufficiency must be turned by a postmaster, or by a judge of a court of record; no other will be admitted. The certificate muN also have affixed to it a five-cent revenue stamp, cancelled, as required by law. W. DENNISON* Postmaster General. Sale ot Land* and Timber ter the Benefit of Normal Schools.
