CORRESPONDENCE.
ELLSWORTH, Dec. 20th, 81.

Ma. EpTroe-Dear SIR Deeply cha
grined by pc oples' excessive fondness for
unwarranted gossip and petty scandal, |
am induced to pen few lines, hoping
that through the medium Of your paper,
they may be the means Of suggesting
amendment to these who are peculiarly
addicted to the delinquenees l denounce.
In the smaller towns OF Maine, where
Juvenile villages just begin to break
/ through the shell OF Comparative eoscu-
rity, there begins to exist a race who
take it upon themselves to expatia,e upon
the shortcomings OF A, B and c; and
TOO often constitute themselves their ludg-
es. They neglect their own business, to
NEEDLE and interfere with that OF their
ne,shbors. The, eyiGce much more in.
teres; IN the affairs OF others, than in
their own aud they are Sd ready to rai'e
hue and cry about ANY paFror,ed sinfs-
deed, that often the guiiIless suffer, and
those who really have been SO unfortunate
as to have done amiss, find heaped upon
them, DC; only he contumely ;lra, has
resulted from their vernabic deeds, but
feel the cruel lash OF unmerited abuse.
lnAumerabte Instances, TO coEFroboraie
these remarks might be quoted ba; do
net choose to be personal IN my obseFya-
;ions-l only hope that some one will be
benefited and reformed BY airding thar

We are now favored with the Daily
State Of Maine, published in the city OF
Portland, by c, D. Bearce g. Co, by
which We receive news six hours in ad-
vance Of the Boston papers. The State
of Maine always contains the latest tele-
graphic news, and its editorials are fresh,
pointed. and. though sometimes little
e1traragaHf, on the whole reliable. The
commercial and monied interests of the
State are dolly discussed, and railroad
enterprises are especially encouraged.
More information respecting the leading
topics Of tie day may be derived from
this than perhaps any other daily ir the
