DAILY PRESS. PORTLAND Wednesday Morning, July C, 1870. The Oulcry ngninet llir I biseae. The cloud of Chinese immigration “no big ger than a man's hand” is producing a com motion which is a foreshadowing of what may be expected when this cloud rises higher and tills a larger portion of our national lioii 2on. The little colony of Chinese at North Adams have hardly commenced work when we read of a meeting held at Troy to de nounce the movement as apian to “cheapen and degrade-American labor by the intro duction of a servile class of laborers from China,” at the same time professing to “wel come all voluntary emigrants from every clime.” in spite of this last proviso this is a stab at Chinese emigration and the attempt to gloss it over ouly changes it to a stab in the dark. It is next to impossible for a Chi naman to accumulate from the low wages paid, in bis own country enough to pay his passage. If lie cannot procure a passage to be paid for out of his future earnings, he must mortgage his family to raise the money. On his failure to pay ..v. fre quently happens, the unhappy wretenes are sold into slavery, to pay the extortionate de mands of the broker who sold him the ticket for his passage. Will any one say that it is more humane fo put the immigrant to the necessity of mortgaging his family than to al low him to mortgage his future earnings? Is there anything wicked In extending credit to a Chinaman and taking security upon his future labor? This system may be liable to abuse. But it is (he safest way he can take to raise himself in the scale of manhood, and to deny him the right to avail himself of this, is to prevent him in nine cases out of ten from immigrating at all. It may be an epen question with many, whether Chinese immi gration should be allowed under any circum stances. But let those who believe this, avow it openly, and they will deserve more respect. It Is unquestionably true that the introduc tion of cheaper labor will cause more or less Lcuipuiaiy unuugemeni. me prouucts oi this labor will undersell those of more costly labor in the same occupations. Ileuce the former will continually tend to supplant the latter and to gain exclusive command of cer tain branches of Industry. The industry of the Chinese in nearly all mechanical processes requiring no great amount of originality, will probably secure them a national monopoly of such work should they come over in sufficient numbers. During the transition some incon venience and perhaps distress will ensue to the laborers who are thus displaced and com pelled to adapt themselves to some other kind of business. But when the industrial equilibrium is restored, the result will be either that the Chinese will become Ameii canized and learn to charge as high a price for their labor as native Americans, or else society will secure at less cost that portion of work which they do. If some avenues to em ployment arc thus closed to our native popu lation, others will probably be opened. There will be work enough for those who are willing to work and who have the sagacity to dis cern the public wants. Native American la borers are not worse off than before the im migration of the Irish laborers. The latter by occupying the lower stratum of individual effort have pressed up Into a more desirable position the intelligent native laborers, to the mutual benefit of both. That we are soon to witness the contact of the Anglo Saxon with the venerable Oriental civilization can scarcely be doubted. Will one annihilate the other? or will they merge,giv ing tho latter more progressivencss, the for mer more stability? Let us hope that so many varying elements, when once assimilat ed under the inspiring influence of the antag onisms produced by the contact of vast moral forces, will give us a higher type of national character. At all events, let us never fear to show humanity and national hospitality. An intense faltF in the reality ot tne Universal Brotherhood will give us the statesmanship for the occasion. Not above the level of the humblest citizen, it may regulate individual conduct as well as national policy. Bill fob tub Revival of Foreign Trade,—The joint Committee of Commerce of the two Houses of Congress have agreed linnn n hill fnr flip numncn wrliiol) fa bo presented as an attempt to get action upon the subject at this session. It allows a draw back on all imported materials used in the construction of Americau ships built for the purpose of being solely used in foreign trade and commerce; and on all materials of do mestic growth, manufacture or production so used, a bounty shall he allowed equal to what the duties on the same would have been, had such materials been imported; such vessels being allowed to engage in coastwise trade up on the repayment of the monies paid by the United States on the construction and equip ment of such vessels only. Ship stores and coal used by foreign trading vessels shall be drawn from bond duty free. American indi viduals or companies establishing and main taining for fifteen years not more than four lines of first-class steamships of not less than than 2,300 tons burden each, for foreign trade solely, shall be entitled to a subsidy of $3 per mile for carrying mails to foreign ports, not exceeding semi-monthly trip3. The Secreta ry of the Treasury is empowered to issue American registry to so many foreign-built steam-ships, not exceeding one-half of the number forming such line, and as are actually employed in the said sendee, and are owned by such person or company. If said foreign built steam-ships shall be used in the coasting trade or otherwise than in such line, such registry shall be canceled. It is also provided that no postal subsidy to any foreign-built steam-ship of such line shall in any case ex cede the actual amount of postage received by such foreign-built steamship on each of its trips. But to the American-built steamships only of the line shall the $3 per mile provided for in this seclihn be given, and the l’ostmas ter-General may terminate any such contract whenever such person or company shall fail to perform its agreements. Representation Reform—Some inter est has been felt by the friends of representa tion reform about the result of trying Sir Hare’s plan of minority representation In the nomination of overseers of Harvard College. According to this plan as applied in this case, five namc3 were to be placed on each ballot in the order of their elector’s preference, and if tlie ballot is not available for one it counts for the next, though each vote can be used for one only, and no person was to be nom inated who did not get one tenth of the whole number of votes. It was feared that this sys tern would be too complicated for practice. It has however worked much better than was expected. The work of counting was much less difficult than had been supposed and in deed acipiired less time than under the old system. Only a comparatively small number of votes bad been eijected on account ot irreg ularities. The results have been considered so satisfactory that the same method is to be adopted next year. In larger constituencies however, it would piobably be found imprac ticable. The Biddeford Union and Journal says it is the politicians, not the people of Cumber land County, who are for Mr. Lynch, which shows that the. editor of that paper hasn’t “travelled” much iu Cumberland county. It is the people of this county wbo are for Mr. Lynch, wliilo his opponents are fonnd mainly among the soreheaded politicians not only here, but to a great extent in York County. We suggest that the editor of the Journal, instead of trying to instruct the public in re gard to Cumberland County, confine his at tention to tire politics of York, a subject not so far beyond his capacity. The Argus thinks the election of a “high toned Democrat” the one thing needful in this District. A Congress composed of “high toned” Democrats would probably be very much like the late Democratic Convention In this city,where all hands were so “high-toned” that nobody could hear anything. r trout Woihiujilti, Washington, D.

On the tax and customs bill, as amende Senate, certain qualifications which can be arranged by a conference committee. But the Senato is a long way behind. A large proportion of the appropriation hills have not passed; the tax hill is yet unfinished; the nat uralizalion discussion now going on, involves the troublesome Chinese question; while the funding bill will lie snre to create prolonged debate. Senators have got to work hard if they expect to quit their “cav« of the as the 1 ,u( T ’v lam strongly ureoi.kjooh to bclirtvc .hut the 1 -sident will be glad to see them go. There are others, thoughtful men, anxious for safety or the Republican party, who see with pain the fearful chasms which threaten to open in its ranks. There is an intense dissatisfaction and restlessness prevalent, which can ouly be removed by compelling each man to go out usd &ce the common foe. There is a probability that the Indian appropriation bill will fail. The House has Just appoiuled the third conference com mittee, aud the question at issue is a very im portant one,'and touches not only a right so lution of the Indian question, but another of greater significance. I refer to the treaty making power of the Senate and its right to bind the House to make appropriations there under. THE HOUSE AND SENATE ON INDIAN TREATIES. As your able Senator, Mr. Morrill, repre sents one side of this question, it may not be unimportant to your readers. The point of disagreement relates to the treaties made with the Sioux (Red Cloud’s, Spotted Tail’s and other bands) and other Indian tribes by the Peace Commissioner in 1^67. The House has steadily refused to make direct appropriations to carry out these treaties. Last year they appropriated in bulk two million dollars and left the President to disburse it. This year they propose the same thing, agreeing to take the Senate’s figures which are larger. The House has reached this point, by first determining to resist the continuation of the Indian treaty system, on the ground that the tribes are not nations, independent or semi sovereigu, such as it is proper and justifiable to perform an act of sovereignty with. The policy of the House is to regard the Indians as “wards,” with whom agreements may be made but not treaties. This is undoubtedly the attitude ot the administration also. As Senator Morrill stated, this is a direct reversal of our policy—it is a new departure, and abrogates the constant practice of not only the Union, but the proceeding Confeder ation and Colonial governments. Tour cor respondent agrees with the House in believ ing such a departure advisable. But the nouse conferees claim that the Indians are not in the treaty-making condition and it is therefore an assumption of power on the Senate's part to ratify any of them. The House further advances the claim one .which has been discussed ever since the government was formed—that tho Senate has no right to make treaties involving expendi tures, without obtaining assent of the Housei which originates appropriations. It claims the right to refuse or revise the expenditures thus proposed by the Senate. In brief these are the points of difference, bat the question is one fraught with disaster, “•i*” Roniofi i>v some separate appropriation. It includes all the means needed lor Red Cloud's people, and may bring on a savage and disastrous war. Continued interference with the great Pacific Railroad, as well as the terrible ravages sure to fall on the frontier pi oneers, will probably follow a failure to sup ply the Indian Bureau with needed funds. It i* I (i VlP lutlkPll tint if ttinvn ennnni ka on agreement on these treaties, and neither par ty can or will recede, it will be possible to pul the amount really needed for the Northwest Indians into a separate section or bill and let the President disburse. There is no proba bility that the House will recede, and the Sen ate must, for it cannnot afford to take the re sponsibility of precipitating a war with the Ogallalas and other tribes. THE NEW YORK APPOINTMENTS have created a good deal cf excitement, and among lookers-on a good deal of amusement. It is funny to hear gentlemen like Representa tives Laflin and Ketckum denouncing State Senator Murphy as too conservative, or Mr. Greeley complaining that the Republicans are not fully regarded. But the President’s slate has broken more than one which had been fixed up by members of Congress and State politicians. Murphy, the nominee for Collec tor, is the President’s own citoice. He de termined to appoint him some three months since, and then took Conkling and Butler into his confidence. The House New York ring wanted Judge Robertson, chiefly because it helped them, and would euable its chief operators to farm on the Custom House their own friends. The rebuff to Sen ator I'cuton is rather severe, as Murphy is not only anti’’ to him, but his special friend, Gen. Merritt, is removed to make way for Mr. Grinneli. It is believed that the slate will go through. San Domingo is credited with having had something to do with these appointments, andi tis certain that John Russell Young of the Standard was consulted. The New York politicians are growing afraid of this young man, not only because he is au able writer, but also because he possesses considerable in fluence with the President and knows Gotham and its politicians. There is a strong hope that with the protection to be afforded by the new naturalization bill, we may carry the Empire State this next fall. Spectator. European dales of tlie 21st ult., give ftill I details of the recent fearful riots at Botns chany, in Houmauia,which have aroused sucli intense feeling among the Jewish commu nities in Europe and America. The first out break of any magnitude occurred on the 2Sth of May, when a party of “gentlemen stu dents,” assembled in a tumultuous throng, and with the aid of the rabble, began their “Jew hunt,” as they termed it, rushing like a pack of mad dogs let loose into the streets mostly inhabited by Jens, commiting wild excesses, entering houses shouting “Come out here, Jew, and we’ll drag you through the streets by the beard,” in several instances car rying their threats into execution; men and women, and even little children, were pitiful ly cuffed and maltreated, and many stoned. The students strolled through the public gar dens by hundreds, armed with clubs, aud when a Jewish family sat down at any of the tables to take refreshment a shower of stones would be raiued upon Item.— On the 22d, at the coronation fete of the Prince, while the Jews were looking at the grand illumination, the Police Prefect and his agents appeared on the scene and spurred their horses against them, while the students were permitted to continue their i>ersecu tions. On the 28th, some thirty or forty houses were entered by the rabble, and every living creature found inside beaten most cru elly. Neither the entreaties of lathers nor the weeping of the mothers, nor the heart rending cries of the children, sutliced to restrain them. There was not a house that they succeeded in entering where blood was not shed; the wounded could be counted by hundreds. The greatest exciteim nt prevails among the Jewish population—not so much on account of what lias alreany happened as through apprehension of what may be com ing. Such, iu brief, is the substance of the outrages recorded by the Vienna press, which have caused so much excitement throughout both Christendom and the Israelitish broth erhood. _ The long-existing feud between the rival es tablishments at Niagara Fails has ended In a murder, and possibly two. On Friday, 24th ult, the sons of Mr. Saul Davis had descend ed an embankment for tire purpose of obtain

While thus engaged, some of the colored employees be longing to the establishment of Mr. Barnett, who keeps tho museum, a little eastward of Davis’s, com.nenced throwing stones at them, whereupon Edward Davis drew a revolver and fired, the ball entering the left breast of ono of the negroes, named W. Price. He tottered to the house and died in a few min utes. He leaves a widow and four children. A party of tho dead man’s friends or relatives then assembled, and a sort of iree fight took place with tire opposite faction. The result was that another colored man named Burke, attached to the Davis paity, was so badly stabbed that he is not expected to recover, and several of the combatants received flesh wounds. The Coroner’s inquest rendered a verdict that Price came to liis death by a pis tol shot discharged by Edward Davis, and he was accordingly taken into custody to await an examination. We begbei' to see that the once prevalent criminal practice of racing on the Mississippi is being revived. We have already noted the con test for supremacy now going on between the steamers I!. E. Lee and Natchez—from New Orleans to St. Louis. This rare grew prima rily out of arivalythat has long existed be tween the steamboat builders of Cincinnati and Louisville. Until within a few days the time between New Orleans and St. Louis, made in IStt by the J. M. Wuite, has been the fastest. That time wa3 three days, 23 hours and nine minutes. But on the 22d of June the Natchez, a Cinoinnati-built boat, arrived at St. Louis, having made the trip from New Orleans in 3 days, 21 hours and 58 minutes, thus beating the time of the J. M. White by one hour and 11 minutes. The R.E. Lee was built at Louisville, and having long claimed to be tiie fastest boat on the river, it was at once determined the attempt should be made to beat tho time of the Natchez. So she stripped ber sslt fer a race, steamed down to New Orleans and waited quietly for the Natchez to make its appoarance. The Natchez, it is said, made no such unusual preparation as the Lee. The latter boat arranged to have its fuel supplied from barges stationed in the middle of the stream, while the former made its regular landings, and received its fuel in the ordinary manner. In other respects, also, the Lee is reported to be in better running trim than the Natchez. If she beats, therefore, it will not afford conclusive proof that she is tho fastest boat. That cannot be settled until the boats aro tried under sjpular conditions. It is also proper to state that the Natchez has a full complement of passengers, while the Lee lias none. The race has created great interest in the Western cities, and in Louisville alone $103, 000 are staked on the result. At last accounts the Lee had passed Memphis at 11.14 on Sat urday night, her time from New Orleans being 2 days, 0 hours, 8 minutes, and the Natches was hut an hour behind. We earnestly hope that this foolish race will not he attended with any disaster to life or limb; but what is most to he feared, is that a reckless spirit of compe tition will be engendered by regular passenger boats; for an epidemic appears to prevail after such an exhibition as this. Captains and crews aud passengers soon lose their discre tion, and the result of their zeal for the supe riority of their boat may be attended with a boiler explosion or a terrible conflagration. Wo outgrowj horrors early in this country, to our shame be it said; disasters which entail the loss of scores of lives faultless of participa tion in the strife are too soon forgotten. The civil law should be enforced to prevent a repe tition of this foolish contest that we are now witnessing; the result is so fraught with peril that nothing can excuse official indifference on the subject. Political Notes. The President has removed Collector Moses H. Grinnell of New York and appointed him Naval Officer. Thomas Murphy is appointed Collector, Thomas Hillhousc Assistant Treas urer and Noah Davis Dist. Attorney. These appointments are regarded as a victory for Senator Conklin over Senator Fenton. Tiieee is a good joke on Brooks. His paper the other day berated the present “liadical Congress” roundly for its tyranical” census law, while the fact is that the census is being taken under an old law passed by a Demo' cratic Congress! In a great many things, Brooks is still a Know Nothing. President Ghaut has expressed to a Sen ator liis belief that the interests of the country demanded the ratification of the San Domingo treaty. He did not comment on the votes of avowed opponents of the treaty, hut criticized parties who led him to believe that they would vote for the ratification of the treaty, but whose names are recorded against it.

Whet ,er it be true as stated, or not, that Mr, Lynch would not have been a candidate again but for the groundless and malignant personal attacks upon himself in that paper since Mr. Lynch failed to comply with the demands of its editor for office, it is true that lie could nave had no more powerful assistance in ob taining the nomination, and can have {none more powerful in the election than the oppo sition of that paper.

The four main points of the forthcoming reforma tion aro the introduction of the Bohemian language in divine service, the participation ol the laity in church government, the aboli tion ef the tonsure of the priests, and their dispensation from the vow of celibacy. It is said that a large proportion of the younger clergy has already been gained over to the eause, and the way is to be paved for coming events by demonstrations ot the masses. The great majority of the most liberal German churches are not supposed to ho ripe as yet lor secession, and it would almost appear as ii tne Bohemian churches were advancing in the direction oi heresy far more rapidly than the German. A fatal, but cool ond determined duel took place on tho 27th ult., seven miles below Mem pli.s, Tenu.,between James Brizzolara aid George It. Phelan, prominent members of tho Memphis bar. The quarrel grew out of a po litical newspaper controversy. The terms of the duel were of a deadly character; the weap ons selected were Colt’s navy repeaters; the distance fifteen paces. A steam tug conveyed Mr. Brizzolara to the sceno of tho due), a small sltifl' performing that service for his antagonist. The tug on noariog the slioro passed the skiffi Mr. Brizzolara coolly standing at the stern smoking a cigar.

It appears that a mushroom growth of so called “Bitters,” is springing up under different names in va-ious localities, particularly in the Southern and Western States, which the venders have the hardi hood to recommend to easy-going people upon whom they think they can impose, as a substitute for Hos tetter’s Stomach Bitters, long iecognized by every class as the purest and best medicated stimulant and Invigorant the world affords. The concoctions referred to being composed of worthless material, offer a larger margin for profit than that Celebrated Tonic, and hence the anxietv ot dollar worshipping dealers to loist them upon the public in Its place. But “forewarned is lore armed,” and all parties whom these distinguished beings are endeavoring to coax (and inveigle into substituting trash lora stamtnrn remedy, are hereby informed of the selfish and sordid motives which underlie th* represnta tioni in question. The great popularity and vast sales ol Hostetter’s Bitters cannot, of course, he soriously impaired bv thrae “tricks ot trade,” but as the debilitated and suffering liavo a direct Interest in the matter it is only an act of common humanity to pat them on their guard.

The Allen mail steamer Peruvian, from Liv erpool, with 35 cabin, and 352 steerage passen gers passed Farther Point on Sunday at 8.30 a m., and arrived at Quebec the same evening. Thoro were 31 certificates of marriage filed with the City Clerk during the month of June. Hon. John B. Brown and wife returned home from their trip to San Francisco on Saturday night The horse cars carried 5,034 passengers over their city routes and 1,781 on the Westbrook route on Monday. Some heathen invaded Mrs. Carroll’s garden on Park street, on Sunday night and tore up many plants and did other damage. They also overturned a fountain in the garden of L. D. Shepley, on the same street. By a typographical error in Monday’s paper we gave the birthday of Rev. Mr. Bailey as the 4th instead of the 5th of July. The Transcript is pleased to notice the same. There was qnite a serious row on the City of Richmond on her trip from Bangor Sunday night. A crowd of roughs went on board at Bangor and attempted to enter tho ladies’ cabin. During the fight which ensued the mato had his cheek badly bitten. The Jame son Guards were called upon but before they wero required to assist, Capt. Dennison went through the crowd of roughs in grand style and put them ashore at Rockland. The P. S. and P. R. R. brought and return ed about 2500 people over their road Monday, and the P. R. Railroad about 1200 either way. The Ocean Insurance Company have declar ed a semi-annual dividend of 5 per cent., pay able on and alter yesterday. There were 37 people in tho station Monday night for drunkenness. “A Cool Spot” in Hale’s wiudow is one of Brown’s latest and best. The barquo Josephine, Capl. Haven, lying at Deabe’s wharf, was cleirautlv decorated with flags ahd streamers on the Fourth. Tho smashing of glass Monday night drew the police to the corner of Brown and Congress streets, and while they were looking at a crack ed pane of glass and fancying they saw a bul let hole, one of the party climbed the lamp post and lighting the gas afforded an explana tion by showing the demolished lantern. Wo hear of acts of mischief and rowdyism on the Fourth by young men who mistake lib erty for lawlessness. A newly married couple iu this city were visited by a rude serenade and a gun was fired through the parlor window de molishing the glass. In Saccarappa a gang of rowdies attacked signs, fences, etc., and finding the village bell chained, pounded it with a stone much to the annoyance of the tick and others. A rcwaid has been offered for their attest. Tiie police, in their new and tasty caps end uniforms, and armed^grith the traditional “lo custs” of their profession, looked exceedingly neat on Monday at the head of the battalion, and their good appearance was creditable to the city. Our historical readers will notice the meet ing of the State Historical Society. Portland Army and Navv Union.—A reg ular meeting of the P. A. and N. U. was held in their new hall, situated in Brown’s block' corner Congress and Brown streets. It is in size 20x35 feet, having two convenient alcoves for their library. The Association lias newly painted, tinted and carpeted the room into freshness, and by pictures and varions designs have given it an inviting air. The meeting was called to order at 8 p. m.i when Dr. Gordon, the President, made some remarks: That to-night was a new era for the Army and Navy Union. That changes are dangerous. There are changes both of decay and of growth. Ho reviewed the history of the Association, dwelling on the love they bore their first hall, their homestead. He congratu lated the comrades on their new hall. That here they received the inspiration of nearness like as they were wont to in the war, when they touched the elbow. He dwelt on how they would, when years rolled by, venerate this As sociation, then, perhaps, a small baud only a remainder of former days. That all before him were tried friends; that many when tho fresh memories of the war just passed through had faded, had dropped by tho wayside. He ex horted them to perpetuate the Association, founded on such glorious principles. The Secretary read the minutes of previous regular and special meetings. Mr. Patterson reported several names for membership. lie port of Committee on Anniversary was accept ed. Mr. Somerby withdrew his resignation, but afterwards withdrew it for one year. Com munications from three members requesting honorable discharge were read by the Secreta ry. Mr. Lockhart moved a vote of thanks to the National Bank for kindness, &c., while oc cupying their rooms. Mr. Hodgdon moved that the officers compose a committee for revis ing the Constitution. Adjourned. Private Entertainment.— Councilman John W. Swett of Ward 2 entertained at 91-2 A. M., Monday, and during the day, the City Government and other friends at his fine resi dence ou Congress street opposite India street. It was a most bountiful and delicious feast, and the worthy host was the recipient of hearty congratulations and expressions of good-will “from one and all.” The officers of the Portland Light Infantry and Portland Mechanic Blues entertained the officers of the visiting companies and also Gov. Chamberlain and staff at the office ef Capt. C. P. Mattocks of the Infantry, No. 88 Middle street, daring the day. A most excellent and plenteous repast served to refresh the inner man after the fatigues of the long marches. Arrbst for Larceny—Yesterday morning Osear Sylvester complained at the police sta tion that he had been robbed by one George W. Booker, a fellow from Hallewcll, who slept With him at the Portland House on Monday night. Booker got up in the middle of the night, stole $35 out ol Sylvester’s vest and then left for Washington street, where be passed the night. Deputy Sterling started as soon as he heard tho complaint and soon arrested the thief at a house on Washington street. A girl with whom Sylvester was on terms of intimacy, was also arrested aud a portion of the money recovered. Personae.—A short time ago ltcv. Hugh S. Carpenter, tho first pastor of the State Street Church in this city, severed his connection with the Westminster Presbyterian Church in Brooklyn, N. Y.,of which lie lias for several years been pastor, aod inaugurated a system of free services iu tho private chapel ol the Pres uyieriii imsuiuiu iu i»ruusiju, which nave prov ed a complete success, a large portion of liis old congregation flocking to hear him. An Accidental Omission—In our account of the High School exhibition, by an unac. countable oversight, there was no mention made of Miss Prince’s “Girl's Prophecies." It was entirely unintentional, for they were par ticularly bright and witty and we had especial ly mentioned them, hut the sheet of paper on which a report ol them was written, was stuck to another sheet and was thus overlooked. Good Time Coming—The Second Parish So ciety ami Sabbath School are making arrange ments for their annual excursion and pic-nic. They have engaged the steamer Chas. Hough ton, which will convey them, with their friends and the public, to South Freeport, on Fridayi 15th inst. All who remember the delightful trip last year, will want to join them ou this occasion._ Accident.—As Mr. Perry of Cape Elizabeth, was driving bis wagon along Commercial street yesterday afternoon, Dear Staples’ foundry, with a led liorse behind, the led horse took fright at the whistle of a locomotive and ran into the wagon breaking off one of the hind wheel and injuring himself very severely. On Saturday last a shoe store on Middh street sold two hundred and seventy-two pair; ol boots aud shoes at retail,amounting to sever hundred and seventy-seven dollars. We wil wager a big apple that the proprietor of tba store advertises in the daily papers. ■Owing to the pressure upon our column following the holiday, we have placed snmi editorial articles, news, &c., upon the firs page of this morning’s paper.

CHAMBERLAIN—INCI DENTALS. A day batter suited for the celebration of the glorious Fourth never dawuod upon tho City ot Portland than Monday. Although t early morn gray leaden clomls overspread the heavens and the air was raw and disagreeable, yet as the day advanced the sun deigned to give a feeble smile sufficient to take the edgo off tho atmosphere, to brighten up the sur roundings, and make every one feel comforta ble. The night preceding was very quiet, there being hut occasional ebullitions of patriotism in the shape of flre-crackers and cannons, nn till suuriso when every bell in the city pealed forth as if they wonld split their brazen throats. It has gone upon record that John Adams once delivered a speech in which he urged that at the rising of the sun the should be ushered in with the ringing of tho bells and firing of cannon. We don’t believe it. We don’t believe that a man like John Adames wanted to he waked up out of a sound sleep in the middle ot tbe night and further rest de nied him. In the future we think it would be a far more sensible plan to make the appropri ations to tho sextons on condition that they should not ring the early bells, or else postpone the ringing until seven o’clock. From an early hour the farmers with their wives, daughters and sons came pouring into the city by every avenue prepared, to partici pate in the pleasures of the day. The pro gramme proposed by the City Government was so much more elaborate than any we have had for several years that there was a corres ponding interest excited not only in tbe breasts of our country cousins but also in those of our citizens. By noon the streets were full, and in tho vicinity of the different .features of tho day there was a solid block of spectators reaching for squares. Notwithstanding tbe coolness of the sea-wind most of the fair sex were attired in white muslin or piqutf dresses witli bright sashes of pink, blue and scarlet lighting up the streets with a wealth of color. THE DECORATIONS. No elaborate attempt was made at decora tions on the part of the city but there was a very general display of the stars and stripes on the part of the citizens, almost every residence flinging out a national banner, either large or small. Tte Observatory was decorated with flags and streamers in the manner that has been customary for many years, while the res lucugro ui vv uuuui aucu, esq., uu J_»e«rllig street was very prettily draped with flags, while from lines running from his residence to the residences of J. S. Winslow, Esq. ard Russell Lewis, Esq., flags of all nations were suspended, making a very picturesque appear ance. All the city buildings, hotels, halls, newspaper offices, etc., tb'ew their bunting to the breeze. M.L1TABY RECEPTION. At 7 A. M. the Portland Light Infantry, Capt. C. P. Mattocks, accompanied by the Forest City Rand and Capt. Howard L, Prince, one of the Marshal’s aids, marched to Railroad wharf, the landing place of the Ban ;or steamer, City of R’chmond, wh:ch bad ar rived early in tho morning. They there re vived the Bangor fcompany, the Jameson Uuards, Capt. Daniel White, which were ac companied by the Bangor Cornet Band. The Glnards were escorted to Market Square, and if ter depositing their arms in tho old City Hall, repaired to tho United States Hotel, where they partook of breakfast, by invitation of the Blues and Infantry. At 8 A. hi. the Portland Mechanic Bines, 2d Lieut. E. W. Loveitt, Commanding, ac companied by the Portland Band and Major W. P. Jordan, one of the Marshal’s aids, inarched to the Grand Trunk depot and .re ceived tho Norway Light Infantry, Capt. G.L. Beal, and the Auburn L:glit Infantry, Capt. A. C. Pray. They escorted these companies to tho old City Hall, where they deposited their arms and then to the Adams Hon.-et where breakfast was partaken of, also by invi tation of the Blues and Infantry. BOWING BBCATTA. Portland harbor never looked prettier than it lid on the morning of the 4tb. There was a very light wind, and the tog oleared up so that the view was not interrupted. There was a long line of vessele of various dimensions, strung 'along on the outside of the proposed courre of the racing regatta which were dressed in gala-day style, from kelson to truck. Steam ers were plnngingtheir way up and down the harbor, and an innumerable number of yachts and sma'1 boats were darting hither and thither adding gaiety to the scene. The wharves Rom Union wharf to Victoria Wbaves, were crowd ed with spectators, us was, also, every available point on Commercial Street and on ;Munjoy. while the tops of buildings were occupied by as many as could bo accommodated. The course selected by the judges lay fiom Union wharf to the western side of the Great Eastern wharves, a distance of one mile naking the whole distance two miles. At ;he former extremity of the course was itationed the yacht Rav, with three of the judges, Capt. Chas. H. Merrill, Capt. Adie snd Ilenry P. Wood on board, and at the Dther extremity the yacht Nettle with Capt. B. J. Willard and William R. Wood. The 3rdera were for the boats to turn around the Nettle from starboard to port. First Race, Four and Six Oared Boats.—For ibis race there were eight entries, with allow ance of five seconds per mile, for the four oared boat. Only five boats appeared, which were placed in the following order, No. 1 being near sst the wharf: t—Emerald, by Emerald Boat Club; John O’Don nell, stroke; Wm. Logue, A. H. Larkin, E.Brady, bow; uniform, white sbirts and green handker chiefs. 2— Emerald No. 2, by same; T. F. Donahue, stroke. A, P. Jennings, Tbos. O’Conoell, Robert McCor; mick, James Jennings, A.

Williams, bow; uniform, white sl-’-ts, blue drawers and red socks. A few minutes past 9 o’clock the signal gun for starting was fired, and instantly the boats were off. The Ariels took the flead on the start and maintained it as far as Galt’s wharf when the Alcyons passed them and got a lead of half a length, and kept it to the stake boat, which they tamed in 7 minutes and 20 seconds, closely followed by the Unas in 7 minutes and 23 seconds. The Ariels had about half turned the stake boat when the four oared Emerald came up, and before they could check them selves, run into the Ariel, smashing in her whole side and swamping the shell. The crew were picked up by a boat from the Nettle, the stake boat. The Aclyons maintained their lead homo and the boats passed the line in the fol lowing order and time: Alcyon, 13m. 5s.; Una 13m. 30s.; Emerald, four oared, 14m. Is. The fi -st prize $75, was awarded to the Alcyons; the second prize of $50, to tlie Unas. The Em eralds lost the second prize by only 11 eecouds, an allowance of 20 seconds being made for four oared boats. The Emeralds preferred a charge of foul against the Ariels, but the judges would not entertain it, declaring that if there was a vsmi, mo oudigo oiiuuiit uu iiiiwic uj uio iviicia against the Emeralds. Second Race—Working Boats.—There were seven entres for this race, but five ouly start, ed, viz: Monarch, Wm. Shea, all white. Swordfish,Scott Oliver, white. Shark, II. J.

The Swordfish pat in at Atlantic wharf, leaving the contest to the Unknown, Monarch and Shark, which passed the stakebout as follows: Unknown, 9oi. 50s. Shark, 10m. 43s.; Monarch, 10m. 45s.

Poetry. [From the Episcopalian.] The Augrl Trio. BY MBS. C. O. COLE. ’Tis laid there is only one day in the year that our departed irlends are permitted to visit earth, and that day is Christmas. Just twelve o’clock—tho hour has come When 1 expect my loved ones home; 0 how I shall rejoice to see The lost of earth so dear to me. Yes, twelve o’clock—tho crescent moon Is sailing high in night's deep noon; It always looks so weird to inc, Liko a phantom bark on midnight seat And In tho starlight, soft and clear J soon shall see their forms appear, A nil hear tho rustling of then wings— flow sweot tiro these Imaginings! The star that shone on Bethlenem’s plain, Now beams this Christmas night again; For rich and poor, 'tis shining bright T# guide them on to plains ol light. Towards that far East, man’s cradled home, My soul doth oft in fancy roam 1 see the humble manger there And hear the chorus in tho air. Ilark! the sweet voices! I behold My loved ores with their harp-, ot gold! They come! they come! my angel baud, And soon will clasp my waiting hand. And as they come, the first I sec An artist, once so dear to me; And golden laurels, bright and fair, Are mingled with his raven hair. Palette and easel are of gold; Ills pictures cannot be unrolled! He canuot show to mortal eves The glorious scene of Paradise. ‘•Dear Mary—could I show to thee These scenes beyond the crystal sea, Thy world compared, would look no drear, That none would wish to linger here.” Now comes my darling first-born child, Ho pur* from sin and undefiled! She comes to me this Christmas even As lovely as a dream ot heaven. Another loving voice I hear— mother’s now do.h greet mine ear; bJnfght’s holy sacred time, os to me irorn Heaven's pure clime. aanged I that aged face; jy youth’s immortal grace! jb e'en as a heavenly bride, am, to linger near my side.

The reputation this ex cellent medicine enjoys, is derived from its cures, many of which are truly marvellous. Inveterate cases of Scrofulous dis ease, where the system seemed saturated with corruption, have been Sunified and cured by it. proftilous affections and disorders,which were ag gravated by tho scrofu Ions contamination until tliey wore pamfully afflicting, have been radically cured in such great numbers in almost every sec* I tion of the country, that the public scarcely need to be informed of its virtues or uses. Scrofulous poison is one of the most destructive enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and unfelt tenant of the organism undermines the constitution, and invites the attack of enfedilingor fatal diseases, without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again, it seems to breed infection throughout the body, and then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop into one or other of its hideous forms, either on tho surface or among the vitals. In the latter, tuber, vies may he suddenly deposited in the lungs or heart, or tumors formed in the liver, or it shows its presence by eruptions on the skin, or foul ulcer ations on some part of the body. Hence the occa sional use of a bottle of this Sarsaparilla is ad visable, even when no active symptoms of disease appear. Persons afflicted with the following com plaints generally find immediate relief, and, at length, euro, by the use of this SAllSAPAltlL St-A:\t,±°nv’s Eire, Italic or Erysipelas, Tetter, Salt Jihcunt, Scald ITcad, JRingieorm, Sore Eyes, Sore Ears, and other eruptions or V isible forms ot Scrofulous disease.

Females, owing to the peculiar .and Impoitant re lations which they sustabi, their peculiar organi zation, and the offices they perform, are subject to many sufferings. Freedom from these contribute in no small degreo to their happiness, and welfare, for none can be happy who ate ill. Not only so, but no one of these various female complaints can long be suffered to run on without Involving the general health of the individual, and ere long prcducing permanent sickness and premature decline. Nor is it pleasant to consdlt a physician for the relief ot these various delicate affections, and only upon the most urgent necessity will a true woman ro far sac rifice her greatest charm as to do this. The sex will then thank us for placing in Ibelr hands simple spe cifics which will be found efficacious in relieving and curing almost every one of those tronbloeome [com plaints peculiar to the sex.
