Gardiner and Monmouth Railroad.

The Portland Argus contains the following
facts in regard to the contemplated enterprise.
Ths terminus of the proposed road in the
banks of the Kennebec at Gardiner, at the head
of ship navigation. Connecting with the A.
& X. Railroad at Monmouth Centre" and
there forming ajunction, it would pass through
valley to gap in the Oak Hill range, known
as 'Jackman's Notch'-thence by lake or
pond to the Indian Rips on the Cobbossecon-
tee river, and thence down the valley of that
stream to the Kenncbec. The highest cleva-
ton on the whole route is at Monmouth Cen
tire. being 26s feet above high-water in Sagada-
hook bay. The elevation presents no serious
obstacle, as the general lay of land and face of
the country admit its being surmounted by
very easy gradients. The distance from the
terminus at Gardiner to the junction at Mon
mouth Centre, is about IA miles, and from
thence to the junction at Leeds, with Andres
coggin Railroad, is l-2 miles. By building
these IA miles of Railroad, therefore, Gardiner
opens to herself the whole interior trade of that
region, and becomes the Albany of the Kenne-
bee

Another Claim.

The Washington correspondent of the Penn
sylvanian thus alludes to a claim alleged to
have been recently allowed to Baylic Peyton, of
Louisiana.
Among other strange allowances made by the
present administration is one to Mr.. Baylie
Peyton. (Sl2. 0oo,) in the shape of extra law
yer's fees You will recollect that he was
Harriscn's District Attorney for louisiana
This claim is understood to have something to
do with his connection with the government in
that capacity. So they thus seem to be all
feathering their nests. The payment of this
demand is said to have been refused by the Ty-
Ter administration, as we'll as that of Polk
So it goes. "Vote yourself slaim," is the
watchwori with the present administration
Every day developes some new claim brought
up and allowed by the presen, administration
Will not the people believe it to be little re-
markablc, that these enormous claims should
have met with so much difficulty during pas,
administrations and should have been finally
allowed and paid so readily and promptly by
the present administration

Rev. S. R. Ward the colored lecturer who
visited this city few weeks since, in an edi-
torial letter to the Syracuse Citizen, thus
speaks Of Maine -
4 am very much pleased with Maine. ]
like it much better than Massachusetts. The
latter is too stiff, too rich too aristocratic too
State street.ish for my taste. Maine is more
democratic. Portland is more so than any
city of the size in Massachusetts or Rhode
Island. Were I ever to leave my beloved
adopted state, New York, think should
come eastward rather than 60 wes.ward.-
The choice Of my residence would lie betwix,
Maine and Vermont. In both of these States
there is less aristocracy than in almost any
part Of the Union, and in both Of these States,
whites and blacks vote on terms Of equality.

N. II. -Four individuals have been arrested
upon suspicion of being concerned in the muir
der of Mr.. Jonas L. Parker, of Manchester. N.

worth, arrested at Lowell, last evening. and a
man named - Clark, bookseller in Nash
VA, N. H., who was taken in custody in that
town, yesterday. The accused have been COM
mitted to prison, to await an examination
The real grounds for making these arrests have
not yet been made public, but it is stated that
information given by DIR. Smith, who is now
injail at Alfred, Me-, charged with the murder
of Miss Caswell, at Saco., Me-. led to the ar
rest of the accused parties. The three Went
worths are believed to be brothers. Two OF
them were arrested and examined in Saco
about year since, upon the same charge.
In addition to the above, it is stated that a
man named ReubensJ. Wiley, now confined in
the jail at Salem, Mass, on charge Of passing
counterfeit money, has confessed that he was
the man who called Mr.. Parker out of the
bowling saloon at Manchester on the evening
on which he was murdered; and that the
Wentworths and others wero the instigators.
He says also, that upwards of $1,000 were
taken from Mr.. Parker, Of which he had $500;
but denies that any arrangement involving
murder was made, in which he participated.
