MAINE as. NEW BRUNSWICK.

On our first page we give a brief account OF a hre
which lately destroyed a large portion Of St. Johns,
New Brunswick. The town of Eastport, Maine.
met with a similar calamity some time ago; and
the citizens Of ST. Johns huinanely forwarded to the
sufferers $1,000. The N. York Star asks if Eastport
will not use exertions to return this generous sym
patby, now so much needed That she has done
40. will be perceived by the following letter, which
we look upon as an evidence Of good feeling, espe-
cially to be applauded, considering the hostile at
titude that these two " sovereignties" have assumed
towards each other for tile last year.
EAsTPoRT, August 10, 1889.
GentIemeR-We have this moment heard of the
fire that has desolated a large part Of your CITY,
From recent suf4rings, in the same way, we are
taught how 10 commiserate you.
Your prompt and generous aid, at the moment Of
our misfortunes, ia gratefully remembered - Under
our present circumstances, TO give would be rather
ostentation than true charity; yet We will do what
we can.
The amount you sent us has been but in a small
mar. expended, and some ofour citizens have con
tributed 10 replace il. We beg you respectfully to
allow us 10 return il 10 you our sutetlng7 are so
much less than yours, that to do Otherwise would
be alike unjust to ourselves and TO you.
IL is our sincere wish that good deeds and KIND
feeling, may be reciprocated between us.
Truly and respectfully your friends,
