DEAR BENNETT .
Yourself, or your readers, will hardly deem it an
item of news to be informed that the HERALD Is
the most popular paper which comes to our city as
the latter have long been TO doubt the
fact Suffice il then, that when the Southern mail
arrives here, the "New York Herald" Is the first
paper which is read.
The new Secretary Of the Navy has common
ced operations, and among the orders recent
y Issued from that department touching this re-
gion, is the removal OF Captain Walden, OF the
us revenue cutter Morris, ION this station, forth
with to Key West F" This movement Justly meets
with most general dlsapprobatlon among our cit-
zens, and particularly amongst our merchants. Cap
tain Walden has been upon this station for fourteen
years, and his services have been incalcuable to
the shipping interests here. He has been untiring
and faithful in the performance OF his duties, and
during his command here has gained the esteem
and confidence of all The harbor of Portland, as
you are aware, is one OF the most intricate on our
coast-sludded as it is with over three hundred
islands The access to it Is difficult, and 1t requires
much time TO become acq lainted with its numerous
rocks and bearings. A memorial has been got up
amongst our most influential citizens OF all parties,
demonstrating against the measure, and requesting
that the order may be revoked. 1t will he convey
ed to Washington Immediately by one OF our pro-
minent merchants, and i is hoped that the order
sor arrived In town day or two since, and will
take command OF the cutter on Monday.
The fremont Company continue TO do well here.

neht wreath was thrown upon the stage-our
young men Gall in love with her pretty ances)
enthusiastic IN their plaudits-and the audience
were delight d with her beautiful "chasses" and
"plrouettes." Rosina Meadows is advertised for
week and will uudOuhtedIv have a good
run .
"Puseyism begins to be agtated in this city.
Your remarks upon this subject perceive are copi-
ed, and your opinions adopted. The "Church OF
England for years has enjoyed the quietness 1t can
know no longer. TIE Oxford high churchmen can
usurp their assumptive authority no more The peo-
zens are not Of that excltable temperament COM
mon in cities, but they are thnkers--and this odl-
GUS doctrine will receive its due modlcum OF con
demnaton from the vast multitude who despise die.

tween church and State.
One g. Ell Jarascid"-a prince of the black art
and honestly believed by many here to be none
other than his Satanic Majesty in disguise-has been
amongst us for a week past. His performances in
tngertrcity, place your Blitzes- your Adriens-and
your Hanningtons entirely in the shade His audi
ences have been composed OF the ette OF our city,
and the house has been crowded nightly To witness
his trickery. We lack not for amusement here this
season. The great menagerie OF Messrs. Welsh q
Raymond is route hither, and will stop with us
lew Gays In August.

game. In this city, the subject of temperance go
verns many voters, and the question is nearly or
quite reduced to rum or no rum"-the authorltles
on Friday last, at the annual meeting OF the LII
censng Board'-having adopted the following re-
solution: -
"Resoved That the public good does not require that
any person should licensed sell Intoxicating drinks
in the city of Portland during the ensuing years and that
this board does not deem to license any per-
son for that purpose "
