EY-The Times thinks we had better get a
new head for the editor, instead of one for the
paper. If we do get one, we hope whoever
furnishes it will not serve us as nature did the
editor of the Times, as most people suppose,
with nothing but a aoood-cut, and sap-rotten at
that. Our own opinion is, however, that his
head is sterreotyped, which will account for
his sterreotyped ideas the composition must
be compound of lead and brass, in equal pro-
portions.

RICHMOND, Nov. "a, lS47.
DEAR TRIBUNE Il have long while Won
dered that there has nothing appeared in your
goodly sheet relating to this enterprising,
fourishing village. can account for it in no
other way than because it is small, and un-
like some other places, its citizens stay at
home coming dimes instead of going abroad to
coin large stories of the place of their nativity.
1t is true that Richmond is small-both in
point of population and in the extent of its
village-but saying this much against it, and
you have said all that would be pardonable to
say, unless you except few limitations that
the mud is some,ohat deep, during the rainy
seasons. But the mud, although it hangs
heavily on the heels of the citizens, clogs not
their enterprise, but rather serves to spur them
to more active exertions.
But joking aside, know of no village Cf
its population that surpasses Richmond for
enterprise, or is its rival in point of wealth.
For proof of this, please read the accompany
ing list of vessels built at this place during the
past season. Ten vessels in ALL ships,
barques, brigs. Markings total of very near
ly three thousand tons.
To say their ships need no pu6fng is but ex-
pressing general opinion. They will not suf
Ter in comparison with any of their class built
on the Kennebec. 1 learn that preparations
are making to build quite extensively the next
season.
Over forty buildings have been erected here
the past year-the greater part of them are
large and commodious. A new Town House
has been built, which adds much to the
appearance of the village, and will be OF great
convenience to the citizens. Many buildings
are needed, and learn that large number
are to be put up next year. This call doing
we'll, for a village numbering considerable less
than one thousand inhabitants. and having
among their number so few men of wealth /;
and it has been done with but little noise
scarce heard out of the place-not unlike the
almost nOlSelcSS ihUOI VI ulFc Vi oSSS'
1t will not be long that the citizens of this
place, when away from home, will have to an
swer a second hail of "Where are you from"
and the listen to the humbling interrogation
of-"Bm ,chere is Richmondf" She never will
be New York or Boston, but will not be long,
at her present rapid growth. in attaining to a
respectable size.
Richmond lacks one thing, that would be of
great service to the ship-building community,
and in fact all kinds of business where lumber
is used. have reference to Steam Saw
Mill-the want of which is severely felt. A
Saw Mill at this place would dogood business,
and be profitable investment, if undertaken
by some enterprising man.
Operations have been commenced on the
Railroad, and the work is being pushed along
as fast as the season and circumstances will
allow. Tie track is located through the best
part of the village. and the depot will be the

EYThe examination of Gilman Creasey, the
boy who shot the two children, on Wednesday
of last week, took place yesterday before
Judge Clapp. B. F. Sawyer, Esq, appeared
for the State, and Hon. Benz. Randall for the
prisoner. After a full investigation of the
facts, it appeared evident that the whole was
an accident, as far as the shooting of the child
rem was concerned, and the court ordered the
boy to be discharged.
It was the girl that YVES killed, and not thu
boy, as we stated last week; the latter is still
living and is likely to recover.
The affair is warning to boys not to med
die with firearms.

Cherbourg on the 22d ult She was TO have
