Bucksport, June 16.—This town has put on her holiday attire and everybody is aglow with the spirit of commencement. Faces of the ‘‘auld lang syne” are seen in our streets and the halls of the old seminary resound with the Yoices of by gone days. The commencement exercises began last evening with the bacca laureate address by Bey. C. F. Allen, D. D. of Brunswick. The text was from Zechariah, 1; 4—“Run, speak to this young man.” The sermon was a fine exposition of the principles on which true success in life depends, and an eloquent tribute to the influence of higher education in moulding character and develop ing and strengthening the mind. Under the magic of the speaker’s words the large au dience was brought to feel with him “How charming is divine philosophy, Nor harsh, and crabbed as dull fools suppose, But musical as is Apollo’s lute, And a perpetual feast of neetared sweets, Where no crude surfeit reigns.” This evening prize declarations and readings will be held in Emery Hall; Tuesday evening the annual oration before the alumni will be delivered by Rev. J. W. Hamilton, D. D., of Boston; Wednesday evening a grant concert will be given by Andrews’ Band of Bangor, assisted by the Apollo Quartette and a soloist from Boston; Thursday forenoon the gradua ting exercises will be held at 10 a. m. Trustee meeting at 2 p. m. on the same day and in the evening the alumni reunion. There is no better place than Bncksportin this State for an institution of this kind and we believe nnder the management of its effi cient principal, Prof. Chase, our seminary will soon be second to none in this State.

The Dignity of the Chamber Dis turbed. SENATOR INGALLS CHARGES SEN ATOR BROWN WITH CHANGING THE RECORD. Washington, Jane 16.—In the Senate today Mr. Plumb reported from the committee on appropriations the army appropriation bill. The same Senator reported from the public lauds committee, favorably, with an amend ment. the bill forfeiting the unearned lands granted to the Atlantic Pacific railroad. Mr. Ingalls, rising to a question of privilege, said, tba senior Senator trom Georgia (Mr. Brown) had referred to his making a charac teristic speech on the bill to refund certain moneys to the State of Georgia. That language escaped bis attention at the time, bat the em ployment ot the terms were offensive. He asked if the Senator intended his remarks as a personal and offensive criticism. "Most certainly not,” said Mr. Brown. “The relations between the Senator and my self have always been pleasant." "That is sufficient," replied Mr. Ingalls, with icy distinctness, “on that point.’ The Senator then objected to another statement in Mr. Brown’s speech, in which he said Mr. Ingalls had not come to the point, but went all around in regard to this money question. “Are yon satisfied,” asked Mr. Ingalls, “that you used that language?” “That is my distinct recollection,” answered Mr. Brown, calmly. Mr. Ingalls, continuing, said that after the report was sent to the public printer words were deliberately interpolated Into the report of the Senator’s speech which falsified the record and committed a forgery upon the records of the Senate. This assertion created quite a sensation in the chamber. Vioe President Edmunds thought the Sen ator out of order, and remarked that if he had any accusations to make he must make them in a different way. "That language,”, continued Mr. Ingalls, “was not uttered in debate, and is susceptible of offensive interpretation.” Senators on the Democratic side cried: "This is shameful—don t reply, Brown.” Mr. Brown, whose face was flushed with excitement, said; “I decline to make any reply.’ Mr. Ingalls, who remained on his feet look in g fiercely at the Senator from Georgia, began: "I suppose the Senator would—” “The Senator is ont of order,” again said the chair. Mr. Ingalls went on to charge that the changes in the report were in the handwriting of Mr. Brown. He said he was willing to sub mit to the fortunes of debate, whether of vic tory or of defeat, but he was not secure against the Parthian arrows that the flying foe might see fit to discharge from the safe ambush of the printing office. “While this mode of war fare,” be exclaimed, “is conveniently safe to the one who wages it, it is not satisfactory to the victim. It requires about the same amount of courage that is exhibited by the Thug, who waits until his enemies are asleep and then stabs them. I move that the language to whioh I have referred be expunged from the record.” The excitement on the Democratic side con tinued. Several Senators clustered around Mr. Brown and told him to keep cool. Mr. Gorman objected to the present con sideration of the resolution, which accordingly went over. Some other business intervened. When it was disposed of Mr. Brown said: “The motion being objected to, I will not reply now. I do not intend that this shall go un challenged, and I will reply to the accusations to-morrow.” The excitement, which was growing intense, subsided, and the Senate proceeded to other business. MASSACHUSETTS. Prize Stock for Minnesota. Boton, June 15.—Steamship Austrian whioh arrived today from Glasgow, brought 23 bul locks, 3 horses, 10 pigs and 2 dogs, prize stock, to be forwarded to Minnesota.

Another Handsome Demonstration in Augusta. the candidates serenaded. Streets Thronged with People—Stirring Speeches from Gen. Eogan and tf thrrs. Augusta, June 16. -Hon. John A. Logan and Senator Eugene Hale arrived in this city at 3.15 o’clock this afternoon. They were cheered at stations along the line. They will remain with Mr. Blaine to*night and to morrow depart for Ellsworth, returning to Washington Wednesday. Mr. Blaine will be invited to accompany the party to Ellsworth. At the station in Augusta on alighting the gentlemen were reoeived with round after round of applause. They were met by Mr. Walker Blaine and driven to Mr. Blaine’s residence. This evening there was a handsome demon stration in this city in honor of Hon. John A Logan who arrived in the afternoon. He was tendered a serenade at Mr. Blaine’s residence by ex-soldiers and citizens of Augusta and sur rounding towns. At 8 o’clock a procession headed by a band formed on Water Btreet. Some 100 ex-soldiers followed, citizens on foot and carriages coming in the rear. The sidewalks were a perfect jam of people Moving on the crowd reached State street and formed in front of Mr. Blaine’s residenoe. Here was one of the largest crowds seen here yet. Mr. Blaine’s grounds and the neighboring grounds of Mr. Homan were completely thronged with people. After the band had played several selections Gen. Connor Btepped forward and in eloquent remarks introduced Gen. Logan to the large assemblage. The latter gentleman then spoke as follows: Gen. Logan's Speech. Ladies, Gentlemen and Comrades:—! most fully appreciate this kind compliment to-night and I am truly glad to meet so many citizens of Augusta. I left the city of Washington yes terday with our friend Senator Hale of this State to make a little visit to his home and tarry over night with our great citizen of the United States. I must confess I feel embar rassed in attempting to say anything after listening to what has been said by Gov. Con nor. It is true that the soldiers of Maine in the same great contest stood side by side with those from all other parts of the country and did their duty for the preservation of this great nation, and it was preserved by their energy and pa triotism. Behind them stood the loyal citi zens of this great republic giving them sup port and prayers with hearts full of hope for success, and as liberty first found birth on the Atlantic slope well may it there have found true hearts for the preservation uot only of this country but of that liberty which God in tended for all men. Let that which followed as the result of its preservation not now be lost. This can only be done by keeping the control of the institutions of this country in the hands of tboBe who fought to maintain them. This people believe in the fundament al principles of a republican government, which is that the will of the people shall con trol. The same rule also applies in the selec tion of agents for the administration of the government. The voice of a great majority of the Repub licans of this mighty nation has chosen as the standard bearer of that great party in the coming oontest for the Presidency of the United States yonr fellow-citizen, James G. Blaine, (applause) and you need to have no fear as to the result. This contest will be a glorious victory, full and complete. Illinois, in| 1860, gave to this country the first Repub lican President. Maine was then associated with Illinois. In 1884 Maine will give as gal lant a President to this republic as has bsen elected by this people. Citizens of Maine, I feel honored and com plimented by being associated on the ticket with a man worthy of the confidence of the people and in every way oapabie of filling the high office of President with honor to himself and to the country. I thank you and bid you good night. (Tremendous applause and three cheers for General Logan.) Senator Hale was loudly called for and re sponded briefly. At the close of his remarks loud calls were made for Mr. Blaine, who appeared at the door and gave a cordial invita tion to all present or as many as could do so to enter the bouse and take General Logan by the hand. After the reception and some stirring airs by the band, the crowd at a late hour dispersed. To-morrow being Memorial Day at the Soldier’s Home in Togus Gen. Stephenson will extend an invitation to Gen. Logan to be present, and he will deliver a short address to the soldiers there. Gen. Logan will remain here several days. Opening ilie Campaign in Bangor. Bangor, Jane 16.—The Republicans opened the campaign tonight by the raising of a Blaine and Logan flag in West Market Square, with cheers and music by the band.

Blake, ex-Gov. Davis and President Clark Much enthusiasm was manifested. Enthusiastic meeting in Brunswick A Blaine and Logan Club Formed.

Mr. Ingalls rose to a question of personal privi lege. He read from the debate of last Friday on the bill relating to the claim of the State of Georgia for money expended for common defence in 1777. Certain words he said had been inserted in the handwriting of Mr. Brown in the official reporter’s manuscript of the debate, and which Mr. Ingalls claimed had not been spoken in the Senate. He was not secure against the Parthian arrows that a flying foe might see fit to discharge from the safe ambush of a printing house. Mr. Ingalls asked Mr. Brown of Georgia whether he did not after the debate was over and the report prepared for the |printer, deliberately, interopiate into the report of the proceedings thereby falsify ing the record and committing forgery upon the records of the Senate. (Sensation.) Mr. Brown—I decline to make any reply to that. Mr. Ingalls—I supposed he would decline. Mr. Ingalls then concluded by saying that the mode of attack referred to required about the same amount of courage as was exhibited by the Thug who waited till his enemy was asleep and then stabbed him. He moved that the language to which he had called at tention be expunged from the official record of the debates. Mr. Gorman objected to present consideration of the motion and it went over until tomorrow. Mr. Brown said he bad intended to say something in reply but as the matter was to go over he sup posed he would be heard tomorrow. He did not wish it to go unchallenged and would reply at the first opportunity. Mr. Butler called up the resolution offered some days since providing for the examination of New York banks by a committee of the Senate. Mr. Blair said if one-tenth of what we saw daily in the newspapers about the condition of the banks was true he did not see how any senator could withhold assent to the resolution. If the comptroller of cur rency was now doing his duty in the matter he had withheld activity too long. After further debate the hour of 2 o’clock ariiv ing the matter went over until tomorrow. Mr. Plumb called up the report of the conference committee upon the post office appropriation bill and upon motion the Senate concurred in the action of the House on the Senate amendment appropriat ing $180,000 “For necessary and special facilities on trunk lines. The House increased the amount to $250,000 in which the Senate non-concurred.) Mr. Plumb moved the Senate insist upon the re maining amendment. Unanimously agreed to. The Senate resumed consideration of the Utah bill, Mr. Brown having the floor replying to Mr. Hoar. Mr. Brown said that the Senator from Mass achusetts had charged him (Brown) with having for the greater part of his life sustained an institution which prohibited legal marriages among part of the people of Georgia. The system of slavery to which the Senator from Massachusetts had called atten tion originated in Massachusetts and the South de rived much of its slavery from that state. Mr. Brown read from Elliott’s History of New England to show that the people of Massachusetts bought and held as slaves Scotchmen, Irishmen, Indians, negroes and mulattoes; that they sent cargoes of rum to Africa exchanging the rum for slaves, some of whom they sold; that they kidnapped Indians and sold them into slavery; that some prohibited baptism to slaves; that the marriage relation was disregarded; that they sold negro women and chil dren in the market and advertised a woman with a child six months old to be sold, “together or sepa rate to suit purchasers;" that they raised slaves for market, and when they found it unprofitable to raise them iu the climate of Massachusetts, gave away negro children like puppies to any one who would take them. The charter of Georgia Mr. Brown continuek, originally forbade slavery, and while Massachusetts was importing slaves and sell ing them for profit, Georgia was refusing to hold them. Finally Georgia adopted slavery, purchasing part of her slaves from Massachusetts. The Sena tor from Massachusetts had said that there was a large number ofjmulattoes to bejaccounted for iu the South. He (Mr. Brown) did not claim that the South was guiltless in this particular. His effort had been to show that no section of the country was guiltless. He read from various historical works to show tliat|large numbers of mulattoes were always found in Massachusetts during the time that slavery prevailed in that state. When in 1778 Massachusetts passed an act expelling from the state all ,5negroes, the courts held that that act applied also to mulattoes It seemed a little unnatural to expel mulattoes, not that they were akin to the people of Massachusetts, but possibly because the climatic influence had changed their color, until they were more in the likeness of the good people of that State. The cold, bleaching winds of Massachusetts, or some other cause, had modified the ebony color of the Africans in that State, and had infused a com pound of yellow, so that they are no longer called negroes but called mulattoes. After these mulattoes! had been expelled from Massachusetts, they doubtless took refuge in the Southern States and their descendants there have multiplied, still transmitting the modified color in herited from climatic influences in Massachusetts. About 21 or 22 years ago an immense cold wave had swept down from Massachusetts and other Northern States.' over the South as frigid and in hospital as the dreary piercing winds of Massachu setts and it bleached a large number of very youDg children of the African race and made them mulat toes. Mr. Brown’s amendment, permitting divorce only for ono cause in places where the United States has exclusive jurisdiction was rejected. Yeas, 4 (Messrs. Brown, Butler, George and Van Wyck); nays, 42. Mr. Hoar submitted an order to have printed, an amendment providing that no building shall be forfeited that is held and occupied exclusively for purposes of religious worship. Mr. Vest offered an amendment providing that in no case shall a husband or wife be a competent wit ness in prosecutions for bigamy except as to the fact of lawful marriage having been contracted between witness and party defendant. Without further action the Senate’ went into executive ses sion and later adjourned. HOUSE. Under the call of States a number of bills were introduced and referred. The only measures of the slightest general interest were one by Mr. Follett ol Ohio, grantiug 160 acres of public domain to every honorably discharged Union soldier and sail or of the late war; one by Mr. Deuster of Wiscon sin to prevent and punish the prosecution of fraud ulent claims Against foreign governments; one by Mr. Wood of Indiana, calling for executive infor mation relative to the fencing in of public lauds; and one by Mr. Bel ford of Colorado, for the erec tion of a Union and Confederate soldiers’ home at Denver, Colorado. Mr. Lowry of Indiana, from the committee on elections, submitted a report on the contested elec tion esse of Campbell vs, Morey, declaring the con testant entitled to the seat. It was laid over for future action. Mr. Randall of Pennsylvania, moved that the House go into committee of the whole on the defi ciency appropriation bill. Mr. Aiken of South Carolina, hoped that the House would not agree to the motion, though he was as much in favor of an early adjournment as any one. He did not think that the appropriation committee should monopolize the day. Mr. Randall said that the House had fixed Juno 30th as the date for final adjournment, and he un derstood that the Senate was likely to fix July 3d. If either of those dates were determined upon the consideration of the appropriation bills must be pressed. Mr. Randall’s motion was agreed to, and the House went into committee as indicated. The paragraph relating to compensation of fourth class postmasters, confining it to box rents and commissions on the sale of waste papers, postage stamps, etc., not to exceed $1,100 a year, was stricken out, 84 to 68. The item of $38,000 was inserted as an allowance in contested election cases, the limitation being $2,000 to each. After an unsuccessful attempt by Mr. Keifer to have stricken out the seotion prohibiting the Treas ury Department from considering any claim against the United States unless filed within one year from the passage of the act, or within five years after it shall have accrued, the House took a recess until 8 p, m. Evening; Neneion. At the evening session the House further consid ered the generaldeticieucy bill. Mr. Long of Massachusetts offered an amend ment appropriating the following sums for the re funding of the State’s expenses incurred in raising volunteers: Ohio, $90,246; New York, $54,946; Michigan, $42,346; Massachusetts, $28,689. Adopted. The House having disposed of 50 yagos of the bill adjourned. .lames E. Kelley, the New York sporting man and I pool seller, who pleaded guilty lately to selling pools in races, was yesterday sentenced to pay a tine of |100. SPORTING. The College Races at New London, Conn. New London, Ct., June 1G.—The first of the college boat races will take'place Wednes day at 2 o’clock p. m., between Harvard and Columbia Universities. Both crews pulled ov er the course on time this evening and covered four miles in less than 25 minutes. The Har yards pulled a long powerful stroke, almost faultless and averaged 30 to the minute while Columbias showed a fine form, but pulling a shorter stroke than the Harvards and varying from 38 to 42 per minute. It is believed that the coming race will be close, with the Har vards as the favorites. The Columbia Univer slty and Freshmen crews raced from the two mile stake to the finish with the Freshmen leading by half a length. Betting is now 5 to 3 in favor of the Harvard crew* Base Ball.

L.OOSE SYSTEMS. Charges Made Against Public Officers in Providence, R. I. Protidence, R. I., June 16—In the Com mon Council this evening the method of busi ness in the Municipal Court investigation, which has been in progress some time, came up on presentation of the report of a joint special committee having the investigation in hand. The committee reported that it found a loose and inaccurate system of bookkeeping in use, and condemned strongly the action of the clerk of tho court in counting with legal fees charges for personal services. The report reflects upon the Probate J edge for receiving bondsmen without proper examination into their qualifications, for appointing the deputy clerk of the court (a son of the clerk) as execu tor or guardian in a number of cases, accept ing as bondsmen therefor persons without pecuniary respohsibility, for receiving personal fees for furnishing certified copies of docu ments, for drawing wills which would come before him for probate, aud for allowing fees of the clerk without investigation. The clerk is also censured for ignoring the fee table and statutory provisions. The report was recom mitted to tho committee with instructions to report at the next meeting what changes are necessary. Sued far Slander. Richford, Vt., June 16.—M. J. Maloney, editor of the Richford Gazette was arrested, and his office closed today by Sheriff Hamilton of Concord, Vermont, through instruction of Edwards and Dickerman of Newport for slan der against Judge Royce of St. Albans. Bail is placed at $10,000, and has not been furnished yet. More writs are to follow from other in jured parties. Maloney has been very abusive, attacking Gov. Smith, Judge Royce and many other prominent and influential men of St. Albans and other parts of the stats. The office is in charge of the sheriff. THE OLD WORLD.

Sir Stafford Northcote intimates that a vote will be taken in the House of Commons on the motion to censure the government for its Egyptian policy as soon as Gladstone states the terms of the conference. Debate on the motion is expected to open June 26. A num ber of Liberals threaten to secede from the ranks of their party. Crushed in ihe Ice. London, June 16.—Advices from Greenland state that the Danish brig has been crushed in the ice, and that ten of her crew were drowned. Attempt on the I.ife of a United States Consnl. Paris, June 16.—A balloon asoension drew together large throngs of people in Bordeaux yesterday. Among the numbers were George W. Roosevelt, United States consul, and his wife. Suddenly a French soldier aimed his pistol at the Americans and fired. The ballet passed through Roosevelt’s hat, grazed his head and knocked him over. The wounded man pointed out the soldier who fired the shot, but the latter with two companions escaped daring the excitement. It is supposed that the soldier mistook the consul for an offi cer in civilian’s dress, against whom he had a grudge. General Dumont, commander of Bordeaux, has otdered an inquiry to bn made. The Royal Marriage at St. Peterbnrg. St. Petersburg, Jane 16.—On the occasion of the entry of Princess Elizabeth, the bride of Grand Duke Sergius, into the city on Sat urday, householders along the route of the procession were forbidden to admit strangers into their houses under any Dretext, and were warned that disobedience of this order would be attended with very serious consequences. Another naval officer has been arrested at Cronstadt on the charge of Nihilism. A Significant Explosion. London, June 16.—A loud explosion oc curred this morning in a private house in South London, which the police have been watching for a long time. .The polioe entered after the explosion and found that the occu pant, who had been engaged In mixing chemi cal^ had had one of his hands blown off.

GENERAli news. William flonlk, a wealthy farmer in Newcomers town, O., was literally torn to pieoes Sunday by a valuable but vicious stallion. The unfortunate man had no means of defence and could not get as sistance in time to be saved from the enraged brute. The depression in the iron trade has caused a falling off of orders for ore from the mines in Wil liams township, Penn. A suit in admiralty involving the sum of 8450 000 was begun yesterday, before Judge Brown, in the United States District Court in New York. The owners of the British steamer Lepanto are sued for the above amount for damages done in collision over two years ago on the St. Georges BaukB. This is said to be the largest admiralty ease ever known in our courts and has taken the lawyers employed in the case two years in preparing it. Application has been made from Kentucky to the department of customs at Ottawa for permission to bring whiskey into Canada and thence to New York as ex-warehoused from that country. Tbo ostensible object is to enable the shippers to pay duties in New York instead of Kentucky. The ap plication was refused. Ernest Hutchinson’s lumber mill at Douglaston, N. B., was burned Sunday evening with 1,600,000 feet lumber owned by B. A. J. Stewart. A heavy frost iu Sussex and Warren counties, N. J., yesterday, damaged the crops very seriously. A movement for a general shutdown of knitting mills in the vicinity of Troy, N. Y., failed. Not more than 40 per cent, of the required 75 per cent, responded to the proposed agreement. The Cohoes mills are running as usual. Judgments to the amount of §125,000 were ren dered in New York yesterday by confession, against O. M. Bryant Co., bankers, who reoently tailed. Mr. Blaine and Civil Service Re form, (Extract from a speech delivered at WInterport Maine, in 1882.) There are man; reforms which I should be glad to see, and which I have for man; years believed in. I should be glad to see every fed eral officer, however honorable, appointed for a specific period during which he could not be removed sxcept for cause, which cause should be specified, proved and made matter of rec ord. I should be glad also to see the tenure of all subordinate officers made longer at least than a presidential term, so that the incoming of a new administration should not be harass ed, annoyed, crippled and injured by the dis tribution of offices. Seven years would be a good length of term, and would effect the de sired end. It would break joints with the presidential term, and would avoid the evil of which I have spoken. There are a great many honest advocates of reform in the civil service who believe in a life tenure for all subordi nate officials. I have never been able to per suade myself that this would be wise, even If practicable, and I am quite sure that it is not practicable. Life tenure means a pension in the end to the incumbent, and with a hundred thousand office-holders this would impose an intolerable burden on the taxpayer. It would create what might be termed a privileged class, which is always sure in the end to prove unpopular and odious in the eyes of the peo ple. Nor do I believe it was ever demonstrated that life tenure insures the best, most faithful and most hon orable service. It may often bo wise to retain a man in office for all the years of his active life, but I believe be will be a better officer if his commission Bhall expire at stated periods, and his efficiency shall be bis claim of reappointment and continuance in our ad ministration of State and county office. This is frequently illustrated. The gentleman who has practical charge of the Treasury of Maiue has been in his position forty-one years, his ap pointment being annually renewed in recogni tion of his ability and fidelity. Even with his strict integrity I do not doubt that he has been a more careful officer than if he had been originally appointed for life or a term of forty one years. In the county of my residence we elected the same man treasurer annually for thirty-three years. He was a better officer than though he had been originally chosen to serve for the full generation, during which he honorably discharged every duty. I believe, therefore, from such instances as these, and many others which I could name, that it will prove a far easier task to educate public opinion to a renewal of appointment to effi cient ana valuable officers, with sufficient salaries to enable them to lay by something for a rainy day, than it will be trf get popular oonsent to life tenures, with pensions to a large civil list, constantly growing in numbers and amount, and constantly provoking opposition in the popular mind. (Extract from Mr. Blaine’s eulogy on President Garfield.) In the beginning of his Presidential life Garfield’s experience did not yield him pleas ure or satisfaction. The duties that engross so large a portion of the President’s time were distateful to him, and were unfavorably con trasted with his legislative work. ‘‘I have been dealing all these years with ideas,” he impa tiently exclaimed one day, “and here I am dealing only with persons. I have been here tofore dealing with the fundamental principles of government, and here 1 am considering all day whether A. or B. shall be appointed to this or that office.” He was earnestly seeking Borne practical way of correcting the evils arising from the distribution of overgrown and un wieldly patronage—evils always appreciated and often discussed by him, but whose magni tude had been more deeply impressed upon his mind since his accession to the Presidency. Had he lived a comprehensive improvement in the mode of appointment and in the tenure of office would have been proposed by him, and, with the aid of Congress, no doubt per fected. Two Good Stories of Logan. H. V. Boynton in the Cincinnati Commercial Ga zette. A chapter about Kenesaw at onoe illustrates his care of bis men and his deep-seated aver sion to exposing them unnecessarily, and fur nishes some interesting history. With Gener al McPherson, he was at General Sherman’s headquarters when the assault at Kenesaw was decided upon. He at once protested, though at first scarcely believing that the in tention to make the assault was earnest. When he discovered that it was really con templated, be emphasized his protest, coup ling it with the opinion that to send the troops against that mountain wonld only result in useless slaughter. Finding his opinion likely to be disregarded, he went still further and de clared it to be a movement which, in his judg ment, would be nothing less than the murder of brave men. In all of this he was warmly seconded by General McPherson. They did not succeed in averting the slaughter. But af terward, when officers in the Army of the Cum berland heard that General Thomas’s protest in regard to tne same matter had been in Bimi lar terms to that of Logan, a stronger liking than ever for Logan prevailed among tho'e of ficers of the Cumberland Army who knew the facts. Thus he ever sought to protect his men whenever he saw that they were likely to be needlessly exposed. There was another and later event of great importance that raised him high in the estima tion of the friends of General Thomas. He had been cut off from joining his command for the march to the sea, and subsequently report ed to City Point for orders. He reached there just after the first order for General Thomas’s removal before Nashville had been telegraphed to Washington, and its promulgation delayed. For the second time General Grant had become exceedingly impatient, and decided to remove Thomas. Upon the appearance of Logan, Grant ordered him to proceed at once to Nash ville and await orders. His instructions con templated his relieving General Thomas, if on his arrival no attack had been made npon Hood. Here was a most brilliant position of fered—that of commander of the Army of the Cumberland, just as it had been reorganized and pat in order for battle, and stood in its trenches ready ft r the word to advance. Had ambition alone actuated him, here was the op portunity of a lifetime of active service. But instead of obeying the spirit of his instructions, he proceeded with snch deliberation as to prove beyond room for cavil that self-3oeking was not the motive which controlled Logan in the war. He moved to his new post without un due haste. He seemed to appreciate the situ ation far better than Grant Himself. His leis urely journey to Nashville gave time for the battle to open under Thomas. And when it opened Logan telegraphed announcing the be ginning of Thomas’s snocess, and asking to be ordered to his old command. Advice to Stage-Struck Girls. BT MADAM JANANSCHEK. "I think that not one-teGth, perhaps not one hundredth, of the great artistic talent born in t the world ever comes to the surface, and I think that all really great artists—painters, sculptors or actors—are born so. But our art is like every other. To attain eminence in it meaus hard work, long study, and much dis couragement. Look at Rachel, who began by playing and singing in the streets. At that time all her talent was pent no in her and had no chance to show itself. Siddons’s career was the same hard work first, and then suc cess. Of course it occasionally happens that an ac tress by her attractive appearance, and the whim of the public, rises into momentary prominence. Bat she soon sinks down again, like a bubble with nothing in it. When youth and beauty of feature has gone, then the true metal shines out, and art, if there be any, mast then assert itself. Bat opportunities for yonng people are be coming rarer every day, and the path which they have to tread, instead of being made smoother by the many who have gone over it, becomes rougher every day. Even if I knew a young girl to have talent, even great talent, I should advise her and entreat her to keep away from the stage, for her own happiness. Everything is shiftless and unmethodical. There are no more stock companies in which a yonng artist can play one thing until she has perfected herself, and gradually rise as vacan cies occur. Every company is traveling rush ing from town to town, two matinees a week, and sometimes, in the West on Sunday. A play only lasts for a season of a few weeks, and is dropped for something else, aud even during that time the poor beginner has no time to study, for as soon as she is off the stage she is on the cars, with hardly time to dress. What a life for a yonng girl, living in hotels and goiDg home late at night, exposed to all temptations, with no home influence to coun teract them. As I said, the best thing for a yonng girl to do, no matter how great she ex pects to become, is to keep away from the the atre, and do anything but go upon the stage. That is what I tell them all." Second Class mail matter. The following ara the rates of postage npon second class matter when mailed by other than publishers or news agents: Post Office Department, Office of First Asst. P. M.

An Italian physician in England has com piled statistics to show that since the adoption of the Education Act in that country, or be tween the years 1870 and 1876, the proportion of deaths among school children from brain trouble has increased considerably. T. Thomas Fortune, editor of the N. Y. Globe (known aa the “Negro organ”), has in press a smalt volume devoted to problems of lan(], labor and the social conditions of his own race in the United 8tates. He calls it “Black and White,” and takes the ground that the cause of the laboring classes—whatever their color—is one. Prof. J. Harris Patton, author of the “Con cise History of the Amerioan People” has in press a book entitled “The Democratic Party: Its Political History and Influence.” This contains the remarkable assertion, which the author claims to have proven, that in spite of the control of the Government from Jefferson’s time down to the Rebellion, almost without in terruption, the Democratic Party has institut ed but one measure er policy which by its suo cess has been accepted and hardened into per manency. Women and Her Work. Patents for a figure map and educational chart have been taken out by Mary E. Guirey of San Francisco. Rev. Clara M. Bisbee, who was a student in the Harvard divinity school for three years, is the only ordained woman minister in Boston. A reporter of the Kansas City Journal (Mrs. Rees) speaks four languages and is one of the best reporters in the West. The Children’s Aid Society in New York has been endowed by Mrs. R. L. Stuart of that city with 850,000 to build a lodging house for homeless boys The city of Boston will pay Mrs. Mary E.

A dispensary for women, where only female physicians will attend, is to be built in Bombay, India, by Cummoo Suleiman, a wealthy citi zen, who will also endow this institution. The blonde type of womanhood is said to be gradually fading away. A few years ago the blondes numbered 47 in every 106. Now they number but 23 in 100. This, it is believed, owing to the "influx of Jewish stock.” A very active part was taken by the women who visited the late National Greenback Con vention. Mrs. Mary E. Haggart addressed the convention, making an earnest and eloquent demand for equal rights for women. Among new occupations recently talked of as adapted to women are those of silk culture, keeping an apiary, raising poultry, floriculture, and instructing birds. The latter business is already carried on In France, and nets the bird trainers large profits. In France the manner in which women speak of their husbands denotes their breeding. “My husband” is tbe correct phrase until a certain age, when he must be spoken of by his surname with "Monsieur” affixed. A very af eotionate wife may a peak ef her husband by his Christian came. Dr. Atkinson, in the Washington Star, com ments on the increase of female medical prac titioners, who at the present time number about 400 in this country. He says: They do a general practice, but, of course, do not at tend men except iu cases of emergency. A wo man doctor who attends men is not considered in good standing. Many women are educated in this country and then go to foreign countries to practice. There is a specially good field for them in such countries as India and Japan, where male doctors are not allowed to attend women. Chilblains.

As the family were at tea, the barn front which Mr. Blanchard had come a few minutes be fore was discovered to be in flames. The Are soon extended to the stable and thence to the ell. By great exertion the main house was saved as word uearly all the household goods. Four valuable Jer sey animals were consumed in the barn, as well aa carts and farm implements. The loss is partly cov ered by J.SOO insurance in the Mutual Town Com pany of North Yarmouth. Cause of the Are un known. Gorham. The beautiful custom of observing Children’* Day was the occasion of very interesting services at the Methodist church last Sabbath. The church was elaborately decorated with flowers and ferns, among which were many cages of birds, whiolt filled the room with their songs. The sermon by T. F. Jones, who took for his subject ‘KJHing Giants,” was specially directed to tho little folks. It was full of kindly lustruotion and held the luterest of the youthful audience till it* close. In the evening there was an interesting Sabbatu school concert. Wednesday evening Mr. W. J. Muchemore of Portsmouth. N. H., will deliver a lecture entitled ‘‘From Ocean to Ocean,” for the benefit of the Sab bath school, in the vestry of the Methodist church Tho lecture is to be illustrated by stereopticon views, and ought to fill the room. v On Friday evening it is proposed to hold an lea cream and strawberry festival at the same place It is announced that the Rev. Mr. Ogden of St Luke’s Cathedral will hereafter hold Episcopal ser vices once a month in this place. A most remarkable revival is in progress at South. Gorham under the direction of the evangelists Allen and .Jones, who are in the employ of C. M, Bailey of Winthrop. Over fifty have been convert ed and entered upon the new life during the series of meetings, and the whole community give evi dence of renewed consecration. A notable feature of the work in the absence of any excitement. Bowery Bench. What appeared 11 be a very destructive fire rag ing at Biddeford Pool was plainly seen fromtha lanterns of the Cape Lights Sunday before sunrise The Methodists are holding a quarterly meeting at tho Bowery Beach church. Presiding Eldec Clark preached Saturday and Sunday afternoon, and conducted the ceremony of administering tha Sacrament. The audienee on Sunday was unusually large for this place, many of those in attendanea coming from other localities. Elder Clark Is a pleasant, eloquent and Impressive speaker, and hifl sormon of Sunday afternoon was, from a Metbodisi standpoint, an able presentation of certain Scrip ture texts. Saturday evening the Central Band gave another of its open-air concerts from the new stand in tha square near the post-oftlce. After a journey to tha city and back, we were too fatigued to attend, bus the mellifluous strains borne hitherward by a gentle West wind were distinctly audible. Mr. Otis Han naford of Town House Comer, a young man of tact, talents and genius, is loader of this band, and ita membership comprises some of the best young men iu town. We note witli pleasure the many evi dences of support amt encouragement given this organization by appreciative citizens.

Governor Iloadly is still for Tilden. So is the Atlanta Constitution. What a pity they cannot also be submissive to the will of God and recognize that the public career of Mr. Tilden is closed. The Argus learns from “Washington that General Logan has come to Maine to con sult with Mr. Blaine concerning how he shall vote on certain questions ceming be fore the Senate. The Argus gets a great deal of valueless news nowadays. Congressman Finnerty, the Independent Irish-Americau member of the House from Chicago, has declared for Blaine and Logan. The woods are full of them. “Richelieu” Robinson’s conversion is not yet announced. Perhaps he thinks Mr. Blaine is not up to his standard. Tammany Hall has given the Democratic party warning that it will be a very unsafe business to nominate Governor Cleveland for President. Cleveland may be too good for Tammany, but he is not good enough for Republicans, that is, for Republicans who think their party is better than the Demo cratic party. The mistake of the gentlemen who. think the secession of a small fraction of the Re publican party will make Mr. Blaine’s elec tion impossible, is that they do not take ac count of the accession of the large number of Democrats who are disgusted with the in efficiency of their own party and ready to vote for a man who knows what he believes and can do things. The Worcester Spy, which did not receive the news of Mr. Blaine’s nomination with pleasure, sagely says: “The level-headed Republican will wait two months ere he be comes an independent to vote in the air, or an ally of tho Democratic party.” It is safe to say that after waiting two months no level-headed Republican will do any such thing. The dissatisfaction is as great now as it is likely to be. There were a few prominent Republicans at the station yesterday to greet General Logan and Senator Hale as they passed through on the way to Augusta. If it can be generally known when General Logan is coming to the city he will have a chance to learn what the Portland Republicans think of him. Our people wait only an opportu nity to testify their admiration and confi dence. The committee of the New York Indepen dents who constituted what was known as the New York Conference have issued their last circular, in which they say that they were appointed to prevent the nomination of Mr. Blaine, that they did all they could to that end and have failed. They aTe kind enough to add that they “leave the responsi bility for defeat where it belongs, on those who nominated the ticket at Chicago.” If they mean their own defeat this is intelligi ble. It they mean the defeat of the party are they not just a little previous? The Massachusetts college presidents and professors may think small beer of Mr. Blaine, but in Connecticut it is different. The venerable ex-President Woolsey of Yale College, who knows more about government and politics than a mass meeting of Harvard Professors, is one of the signers of a call for a meeting to organize a Blaine Club in New Haven. Several of the college professors ap pear in the list. The Rev. Dr. Harris of the Theological School, formally of Bangor, speaking from a personal accquaintance with Mr. Blaine fully endorses the approv ing estimate of his character published by Rev. Dr. Ecob. We regret to see that our Bangor and Au gusta contemporaries are not as familiar as they ought to be with the names and dis tinctions of the great men of Massachusetts. Capt. John Codman, the distinguished ad vocate of free ships, is not the gentleman who presided over the meeting of bolters in Bo3ton last Friday. We do not know wheth er he is a bolter or not. Col. Charles R. Codman is another [man. He is the one who presided at the Republican State con vention which nominated Governor Robin son. He is a good man, but rather particu lar in his politics. The Democrats of Maine have their State convention to-day :n Bangor. The delegates will meet under unpropitious conditions. Doubtless they will talk long and loud, but they are in great perplexity about what they ought to do, beingl well aware that nothing they can do will save them from ignomini ous defeat. There are a good many Demo crats who would like to go to the nationa1 convention, but they are not tumbling over one another in the race for the gubernatorial nomination. However, we presume some body will be nominated for Governor Robie to triumph over. Whoever takes the nomin ation ought to have a clear understanding that his acceptance must be looked upon as a service, not as a reward for service. Now Governor Cleveland has kicked his reform friends with a vigor that will make it difficult lor them to stand up for him any longer. On Saturday night he vetoed two of tha bills which Mr. Roosevelt and his al lies had succeed in carrying through the leg islature for reforming the administration of New York municipal affairs. One of them was known as the tenure of office act and the other was an act to promote the efficien cy of the Park Department. Both were re garded as extremely important and wise acts of legislation and the former was framed in accordance with suggestions made by the •overnor himself. The desire to conciliate hostile Democratic sentiment in New York is presumed to be the reason for this course which has surprised and shocked the whole body of earnest reformers in New York. The indignation of the New York municipal re formers is immense. They openly accuse the Governor of bad faith and declare that his action in respect of the tenure of office aet has rendered nugatory ail that has been accomplished !y other bills passed and signed before the Governor became so prom inent a candidate for President. What Democrats Think of It. It suits the purpose of the Democratic or gan in this city to represent that Mr. Blaine is a weak candidate, that he is likely to be beaten out of sight, and the Argus takes de light in parading the discouraged express ions of Republican papers and speakers tbat are disappointed by his nomination and de sire his defeat. But the sober minded Dem ocrats are not deceived by these appear ances. From one end of the land to the other they recognize that it is a strong and popular nomination and that their chance of defeating the Republican candidate is a very slim one. With one accord they declare that the Republican position with Mr. Blaine as a candidate is not one to be scorned; but one which will challenge all their skill and all their energy. They are too honest to at tempt to deceive their readers by cheap and empty boasting. They see that the Chicago Republican convention has made their hopes desperate and they say so in manly fashion. In proof of this the following extracts from Democratic journals, and the Philadelphia Times, an independent paper unfriendly to Mr. Blaine, are convincing. From the Philadelphia Tsmes (Ind.) Blaine will be the master spirit, the leader of j leaders in his own campaign. The party will follow I him with the devotion and enthusiasm of the army that bore the eagle of France when Napoleon marched for Moscow, and even in deleat he would he worshipped by the rank and tile as the man of destiny after Russia and Elba. He will start the contest of 1884 with spontaneous energy in every section of the country. Ho will carry Ohio in Oc tober, even with German prejudices against him. He will disturb Democratic confidence in West Virginia, the other impor tant October State, and lie will be likely to recall California and Nevada from their Democratic diversion of 1880, to join Oregon in a solid Republican electoral vote on the golden slope of the Pacific. From the Galveston News (Dem.) The nomination of James G. Blaine by the Repub lican party creates no surp rise. His canvass for the nomination was ably planned, ably executed and backed by the life and spirit of the Republican party. His nomination is in a sense an honest ex pression of the Repnblican wishes. It was de manded by the sentimental partisanship of the party eight years ago, hut defeated by questiona ble methods in the conventions of 1876 and 1880. Blaine is a representative Republican and will make a plucky campaign. He is full of ability, au dacity, dash and enterprise. He has been long in the public service, has a host of public friends, nu merous admirers and more devoted followers per haps tlian any prominent and aspiring politician in the United States. From the Houston, Texas, Post. (Dem.) The Democratic party must be aware that by nominating Mr. Blane the Republicans have exhib ited the finest trump card in their deck. It is of no use to disguise the fact; Blaine is a very strong man, difficult to beat. He has the magnetism of the few select, who stand head and shoulders above their fellowmen, his private record is a pure one— to the best of our knowledge and his ability has been tested a hnndred times and not been found wanting. The Democracy should not underate their enemy. No use to make fun of Blaine’s book. That book will turn out to be the most efficient document of the season. The Republican managers will send hundreds of thousands of copies of that book through the South and other Democratic strongholds and seek to convert Democrats by the charm and the eloquence of Blaine’s “Twenty Years in Con gress.” We have read that book. It is written in the style of an approved master and it will catch the unwary by its fine phrases and its show of im partiality. Blaine is the man of all men who will give the Democrats a hard battle for the presidency, The Post, in noting the nomination of the Maine statesman, considers it a duty to warn the Democ racy that the Republican nominee is a formidable enemy, who is not to be trifled with- It is for that reason that we present him as he is, and not from a partisan standpoint. While we lope to assist in de feating Blaine we must caution the Democracy that the time for vacillation is past. Eloquent Praise. Speech of Col. Ziuii o A. Smith at the Din net* Complimentary to Delegates Gore anil Onllagher, of IUaMHachusetts, at the Quincy House, Rostou, last Friday. I was for eight years secretary of the Repnb licau committee while Mr. Blaine was chair man, and daring that time I came to love him as perhaps I never loved any other man. There are some men who are great in the dis tance, but Mr. Blaine is the greater the nearer you get to him. I knew his political methods, and as a political leader aud organizer his methods were pure and upright, as pure as heaven as compared with those of some of the men who criticised him. The man does not exist on God’s footstool who will say that James G. Blaine in any business relation of a man, ever deprived him or cheated him out of a dollar or did not keep any promise he had made to him. For the love I bear Mr. Blaine I did not want him to go into this campaign and subject himself to the vileness and scur rility that is poured upon a presidential candi date. I have too much regard for the man, aud knew lie did not care for the nomination. Last fall I visited him at his home, and we walked out on a September afternoon together. He then said to me: “I do not care to be a Candidate. I would not go through with anoth er campaign such as I saw in 187G or 1880. To me the idea is repulsive.” Said he: “1 have got through with public life. When Garfield died my public career was closed. I am hap py in the past, I am happy in the present, I am happy in my friends, 1 am happy in my following. I waut to complete my book, and then to live for the respect of my fellow-men, and for the regard of those about me.” He spoke then the truth of his heart, and you can not find between the two oceans any letter he has written to any man asking him to go to Chicago or to assist him in any way. I know his persotiai friends have been to him, and have tried in some way to get him to say something or ask them to do something for him, but the man does not live who will say that Mr. Blaine asked him directly or indirect* ly to do anything to get this nomination for him. It came irom the people. [Applause.] If ever there was a nomination that came from the people, the great common people of this country, the great people that he believes in, it was the nomination of James G. Blaine. [Ap plause.] And why do the people love this man? It is because he is thoroughly and in tensely an American citizen. [Applause and cries of ’’Good!” “Good!”] It is because he believes every American citizen should be taken care of by the laws of his country and protected. I know his thoughts and ideaB on this subject, and one of his fears has been that something might happen which would reduce the labor of this country to the condition of the pauper labor of England, and for that reason he is to-day a protectionist. [Applause.] He believes that the prosperity of this country de pends upon the happiness, the good will and the prosperity of the common people, and that is why James G. Blaine is loved.

It steps the falllng'of the hair; prevents its turning gray: cures baldness, and restores youthful color and freshness of appearance to heads already white with age. The following are a few illustrations of what is done by HALL’S Vegetable Sicilian HAIR RENEWER:, #3* Mrs. Httnsberrt, 344 Franklin Ave., Brooklyn, N. 1*., after a severe attack of Ery sipelas in the head, found her hair—already gray—falling off so rapidly that she soon became quito bald. One bottle of Hall’s Hair Re kewib brought it back ns soft, brown and thick as when she was a girl. *3" Mr. Kesling, an old farmer, near War saw, Ind., bad scarcely any hair left, and what little there waa of it had become nearly white. One bottle of Hall’s Hair Renewer stopped its falling out, and gave him a thick, luxuriant head of hair, as brown and fresh as he ever bad. a®* Mrs. A. T. Wall, Greenfield, Cheshire, Eng., writes: “I bave found the greatest ben efit from the use of Hall’s Hair Renewer, it having restored my bair, which was rapily fall ing off, and returned Its original color.” W Dr. Emil Seip, Detroit, Mich., certifies that “Hall’s Hair Renewer la excellent for hair growing, and gives back the natural color to faded and gray hair.” A3* Mrs. S. E. Elliott, GlemiUe, W. Va., says: “One bottle of Hall’s Hair Renewer restored my hair to its natural, youthful color." No injurious substances enter into the composition of Hall’s Hair Renewer, and it Is not a dye. Its vegetable ingre dients render it in the highest degree bene ficial to the scalp as a preventive of dis ease. Its effects are natural and lasting, and it does not make the hair dry and brashv, like the so-called restoratives com pounded with alcohol. Buckingham’s Dye FOR THE WHISKERS Is, in four respects, superior to all others. 1st—It will produce a rich, natural color, brown or black, as desired. 2d—The color so produced is permanent, cannot he washed off, and will not soil any thing with which it comes in contact. 8d—It is a single preparation, and more convenient of application than any other hair or whisker dye. 4th—It contains no deleterious ingre dients, as do many preparations offered for like use.

The captain he struck a fearful blow on the bead. The steward he struck across the face, making an opening that re quired the attention of a phyeiciaD, and which will disfigure him for life. He also wounded fonr others, two dangeronBly. Another man then closed in with him, but Drake resisted* and in the straggle the sailor had one finger almost cut off, and received injuries that will probably render his hand useless for life.

LOGAN Pnuea Through Portland on Hi* Way to Auguata. Gen. John A. Logan, the Repnblican candi date for the Vice Presidency, passed through this city yesterday noon, on his way to Au gusta to visit Mr. Blaine. Accompanied by Senator Hale he left Washington at 4 p. m. Sunday in accordance with a request of Mr. Blaine who desired to have a conference with his associate on the presidential tioket before the letter of acceptance was prepared. At Boston the elegant car No. 138—the directors’ car of the Maine Central—was courteously placed at the gentlemen’s disposal and was at tached to the regular morning train from Bos ton arriving in this city at 13.50 p. m. ery few people had any idea that General Logan was coming through yesterday. At the station were Collector Dow, Postmaster Barker, President Jackson of the Maine Cen tral, Judge Haskell of the Supreme Court, Hon. Frank Jones of Portsmouth, Col. H. S> Osgood of Augusta, Geo. S. Hunt, Esq., Mr. Clarence Hale and a fewothers. General Logan received his visitors very courteously. His pictures are for the most hair C1j'iea-ure8' -They look as if he bad his CU with a scythe, and carried a water* a t° t>iac*c kair on his upper lip. On the cun ’ary he is a very tine looking man, of large ar.d commanding presence, with a very pleasant smile. He told the reporter for the Prksb he should leave Augusta with Senator Hale to-morrow and return to Augusta Wednesday passing through that city and Portland, on his direct return to Washington. A reporter for the Boston Globe asked him what his opinions were in regard to the ap proaching compaign and the General replied “he had not any to express.’’ He was then asked who he thought the Democratic Con vention at Chicago would nominate for Presi dential candidates and the General remarked “he was not managing the Democratic party." The General was informed that if the pablio had known he was coming there would have been a decided demonstration. As it was quite a number of people who bad gathered in the station collected around the oar to see the Republican nominee for the Vice Presi dency. At precisely 1.15 p. m. the car, at tached to the Flying Yankee, left for Augusta, and as the train pulled out of the station, Mr. Winchester, the well known caterer, provided a sumptuous lunch to the distinguished party. Senator Hale is looking exceedingly well,and was warmly greeted by his friends. He stated to the Press reporter that President Sewall had kindly placed the directors’ car at the dis position of Genu Logan for the trip to Ellsworth and it is possible Mr. Blaine will accompany them. Gen. Logan has no intention of taking his family to Bar Harbor or to any other place in Maine for the summer, as has been stated in various quarters, but expects to remain in Washington until the close of the session,when he will go to his Illinois home. It is reported that Mr. Blaine’s letter of acceptance will doubtless be an elaborate one, while Gen. Logan’s will be short. It is expected that the general plan of the campaign will be one of the subjects of conference between Mr. Blaine and Gen. Logan. RASE BALL. Manager Burnham’s New Grounds— Work to Begin Upon Them ToDay. Since the unfortunate termination of the ball game Decoration day followed by the dis banding of the Dirigo team, Manager W. W. Burnham has been devoting his time aDd at tention to arrange and mature plans to once again place the national game before our peo ple in such a manner that It willl receive public support. He has worked hard and at times has cad up-hill work, but now he has the pleasure of announcing something tangi ble and of interest to all. He has secured a five year’s lease of the field owned by Henry Deering and J. S. Ricker, situated in the edge of Deering and a short dis tance from Deering bridge at the foot of Green street. This field is 350 by 500 feet (regulation Bize) and is a perfectly level ground. There are some thirty trees upon the lot that will be re moved, and still leave several which will bor der the ground just inside the fence, and un der which will be booths for the sale of re freshments, &c. The field will be laid out so that the home and second bases will be on a line parallel with the road, with the strikers facing toward Port land. Ninety feet behind the home plate, and under large and handsome oak trees, will be erected. A commodious grand stand,the front of which will form the catcher’s fence. Above this wire netting will be stretched, which will ensure perpect safety to spectators. This stand will be for gentlemen with ladies only, but on either side will be seats to accommodate the general public. A fence ten feet high on the front will be erected with two large gates for exit. Carpenters will commence on the work of fit ting up the grounds today, and the opening game will be played inside of two weeks. Mr. Burnham has some fifteen tnen from whom he will pick his team. The nine will be named “Portland” and. they will appear in a new and neat uniform. NOTES. At Kennebunk, June 14, Sacos of Saco 15, Kennebunks 12.

The Starry Flags of Richmond again tackeled the Bowdoinbam High School boys at a game of base ball Saturday,on the B. H. S. grounds. Three of their poorest players we-e turned off and three of the best players of the Richmond Blues were substituted in their place. Their men were much larger and heaver then the home nine but they couldn’t out play them all the same. The B. H. S. boys went to the bat first and took the lead and kept it nobly to the end. In five innings the Starry Flags never saw the third base. They couldn’t “catch on” the home nine’s pitcher, they hardly hit the ball, and when they did it was gobbled up by the B. H. S’s. The score stood 23 to 12 in favor of B. H. S. boys. The Grays of Richmond played a match game of base hall with the Stars of Bowdoin ham Saturday, resulting in favor of the Stars by a score of 20 to 18 in uneven innings. O. Faund. Yesterday morning Captain Willard’s new steamer, the Fannie G., and the divers (Captain Hamilton’s) sloop, proceeded to Little Diamond Island, and laid to near the No komis, the yacht belonging to the late Mr. DeGroot. The diver, looking over the Bide of the sloop, saw the body of Mr. DeGroot lying on the bottom of the harbor about fifteen feet from the yacht, and in a depth of about ten feet. He put on his armor, went down and recovered the remains. Mr. DeGroot had the iron mooring-weight fast to his neck. The re mains were brought to this city, to Morse Bunce, the undertakers. Coronor Gould con sidered an inquest unnecessary. Mr. DeGroot’s funeral will take place at the residence of President DeWitt this morning at 11 o’clock. His associates of the Union Mutnal will be in attendance. The friends of the de ceased are invited. Committee Appointed. The Republican City Committee have de cided to send a delegation of citizens to Bos ton to meet the committee of the National Re publican Convention appointed to notify Mr. Blaine of his nomination.

An adjourned meeting of the School Board was held yesterday afternooD, HU Honor, the Mayor, presiding. Present, Messrs. Baker, Holden, Bing, FuX, Bradley and Briggs. Mr. Bradley reports upon the matter of pro viding schooling for the children on Crotch Island; that he has visited the island; that there are twenty or more of school age on the island, nearly equally divided between Port land and Cumberland; that the people there are desirous of a school for their children, and think a suitable house should be provided for them; that there should be one term in the winter and one in the summer. Mr. Bradley states that he has consulted the authorities in Cumberland, and their proposition is for Port land to provide a school suitable for 20 children and take control of the school, and that they pay a fair sum annually for the use of the house, and their proportion according to the number of children in each town, for the ex penses of the school. This he makes as a par tial report, and the matter is still continned by the board in hU care. Pay-roll and hill amounting to $328.60 were presented and approved.

To the Editor of the Press: Will you please coirect your statement in to day’s issue; there must have been nearly one thousand persons at City Hall last evening. Yours truly, H. m. Hart. Portland, June IGtb, la It the Back Bay f 2b the Editor of the Press: Without any desire to contribute to any un necessary agitation of the Back bay question, I trust I may be allowed to make a suggestion. That at times our night atmosphere has been permeated with odors disgustingly offensive and certainly unhealthy, ought not to be de nied as it cannot be denied in good reason. These odors in their sickening vileness have reached Congress street—our city is not so wme that they may not be wafted across. Probably the higher elevations have not been affected. The condition of the atmosphere at night is favorable to the descent of these odors. These odors are not confined to the nature of those of “any salt marsh" by any means, though at certain points only the salt flats odor has been noticed. But on the line of Cumberland, Congress, Deering and State streets, and some times on Free and Spring streets, after sundown and before 10 o’clock at night, and after 2 and 3 o’clock a. m., the character of these odors when the most offen sive as they have filled our sleeping rooms has been identical with that emitted by the night-soil cart or the common privy vault. From this_Btat6mant_tbere is no discount to bg-KVa.de as I Lave been t3C much of aS ob server for five years to be willing to modify it in the least. As I have on other occasions said that the Back bay was not guilty of all that was charged to it, my suggestion would be that immediate steps be taken to ascertain the cause with a view to its speedy removal. The charge has been made by some one that it is not the Baok bay at all—the tannery was bad enough, but the tannery was not the whole of it—the peculiar odor, for there has been such, and now let us know if it is what it has been charged to—privy vaults on the northwest side of the city. It is the duty of the city government to pro tect the value of property from which /it de rives its share of municipal revenue. For residences the northwestern side of our city is certainly more desirable than the cen tral, and the view upon the waters of Back bay and the opposite shore is too fine that its reputation should be impaired by any unfair treatment to the residents of our northern ®loPe- Deering Street. The Back Bay. To the Editor of the Press: I am surprised that your correspondent "Pearl Street" should deem the Baok bay nuisance of so little importance from a sani tary point of view, for, in the opinion of a very large number of residents on the north ern and western side of the city it has been the cause of most serious injury to the public health. I hope, Mr. Editor, that you will not be impatient over the influx of communica tions to the Press complaining of this well nigh intolerable evil; for now, as the warm season opens, it seems to os, the sufferers, as though the accumulated odors of the cold months had begnn to discharge themselves upon this slope of the city, Cannot something be done to help us? While waiting for the completion of the intercepting sewer, could not the suggestion of "Pearl Street” bs acted upon, and at least a temporary dam and gate way be placed at Tukey’s bridge, so that the flats should remain covered most of the time? Let the gate regulating the inflow be self-act ing, but the outflow gate made so as to be fixed when necessary. But all those items may better be left to the engineer in charge, only let our worthy city “fathers” do something in the matter. It is^a serious injury to the rep utation of our city as a pleasant and healthful summer resort, and it seems almost incredible that successive city governments should have permitted so great an evil to continue so long to poison the public health. Let the dam be constructed, and Back bay be covered by a sheet of water changeable at will, and then will an intolerable nuisance be abated and that side of our city be once more pleasantly habit able.

What were the circumstances of its first observance.” Subscriber. The Union in reply says: “Decoration Day originated in the South in the fact that the ladies of the Sonth, during the civil war, strewed the graves of their dead with flowers. In 1868 General John A. Logan, then at the head of the Grand Army of the Republic, ap pointed May 80th as a day on which the graves of the dead comrades shonld be decorated. Since then the day has been oba erved through out the United States.” An Old Veteran. Portland, JnDe 15,1884. Real Estate Transfen.

It is insidious in character, and manifests itself in running sores, pustular eruptions, boils, swellings, enlarged joints, abscesses, sore eyes, etc. Hood’s Sarsaparilla expels all trace of scrofula from the blood, leaving it pure, enriched, and healthy. “I was severely afflicted with scrofula, and for over a year hud two running sores on my neck. Took live bottles of Hood’s Sarsaparilla, and consider myself cured.” C. E. Lovejoy, Lowell, Mass. C. A. Arnold, Arnold, Me., had scrofulous sores for seven years, spring and fall. Hood's Sarsaparilla cured him. Salt Rheum William Spies, Elyria, 0„ suffered greatly from erysipelas and salt rheum, caused by handling tobacco. At times his hands would crack open and bleed. He tried various prep arations without aid; finally took Hood’s Sar saparilla, and now says: “lam entirely well.” My son had salt rheum on his hands and on the calves of his legs.
