PORTLAND, August 6, 1912.
Portland-Hs pLedswes-Thc Collector Of the port
A party at has house-Ligh House Surrey
DEAR BENNETT
As your valuable paper contains the latest and
best information of every thing and every Place,
send you an account of the doings and sayings in
the delightful city of Portland And truly delight
full place it s-broad streets lined with trees splen
did mansions and women-oh, the most beautiful
women in creation. You cannot conceive the de-
light with which lounge along the shady streets on
sunshlny day ,eyelng askance the grou of beaut-
full girls that float along them But aside from con-
sructlon and the ladies, Portland has very extern
sve claims to our attention in the magnitude of its
commerce and in its beautiful bay Ii is the princ.
pal seaport of the United States, north Of Boston
Here vessels Of all sizes and descriptions are built
and sailed TO every port of earth
The society is wealthy and fashionable in the ex-
IRENE Last evening (Aug 50 splendid party was
given by the collector of the port (Mr Cummpgs,)
and assembled in his magnificent rooms were all
the beauty and the fashion of the city oh IL was
a perfect Jam no possibility of moving out OF the
general current that set from room to room in one
dense stream. The beautiful dresses-the beautiful
women-the inspiring music-the well dressed gen.

tlemen all combined to form a scene that dazzled
and delighted Upon entering the room recognized
the gentlemanly host, and shortly after, by dnt OF
great perseverance,, made my way up TO the lady OF
the mansion, and was received by Mrs G. with all
the maironly kindness and dignity OF manner, that
renders her the idol of her circle. On looking about
my eve at once discovered the belle OF The evening"
Miss Df**e, of Staten Island who splendidly alfred;
surrounded by group OF admirers, was dispensing
her smiles in manner that made many heart
ache. Seated near, was her friend, the charming
widow D**F**g all light, and life and loneliness
the worshlpped centre of another shere. These la
dies were decidedly the bellies, in vivacty in beau
ty, in the tase full elegance of their dresses they held
the undlsputed palm. At this moment the music
struck up, the parties moved off, the quadres FORM
ed, and all was floating IN light and grace. At
turn OF the dance, discovered the two Misses esp
sisters, and both magnificent beauties In the ford
style, large, languishing and superb; they moved
through the figures with the voupuous grace of orr
entail beauty. Among other distinguished beauties,
noticed Mrs. L*****, Miss DIV, Miss r., Miss w,
and host of bright and Joyous faces unknown to
me. Among the gentlemen were the officers of the
United States brig Consort, of the Revenue Cutter
Morris, and of the First Regiment Artillery, to-
gether with the gentlemen composing the commits
sion for the Light House Survey, IN whose honor
understand the fete was chiefly given.
Now that the subject is started, one word In reia
ton 10 the Light House survey; il is one OF those
quiet, unostentalous measures OF President Tyler,
that conceived In wisdom and executed with abr
lily, confers, without noise, great good upon tho
country, and strongly contrast with the paltry dis
play for political effect, that has so long disgraced
the opposing parties for power The fact is noto-
rious that our Light House system for some time
past has been mere farce in its management;
attention has been paid to the rapidly increasing
wants OF our fgreat marine, and the stations have
been chiefly selected where most convenient 10 fur
nish some political partizan with contract, and
some stnmp orator with desirable birth.
II is really astonishing that such wretched con-
structlons and execrable lighting apparatus should
disgrace the coast OF great commercial nation;
there Is some consolation, however, lnknowing that
the evil is in fair way TOR reform. Mr.. ]. w. p.
Lewis an engineer OF great experience and capa-
city, and who has long given the subject undivided
| attention, has been appointed TO survey and tho
roughly investigate the notorious Deficiencies 1t
is to be hoped that speedy action will be had on
subject Of such vital Importance 10 commercial
interest. The cutter Rush is appropriated for the
survey, which is finished from Eastport to this place,
and shows IN strong light the utter ineffcency of
the present system.
Inmy next, shall give you some descriptions of
our eastern coast. WANpERKR.
