TRUE YANKEE GRIT.-A young lady from
one of the hill towns in Franklin county is
teaching in Virginia. After the John Brown
affair, notice was given that she should not
have any of her letters from the Post Office
until they had been opened and read in the
presence of witnesses to see if they contained
any 'incendiary matter" She Immediately
went to the Post Office and demanded that her
letters should be delived to her unopened.
The postmaster looked at her a moment, saw
that she meant what she said and delivered her
letters to her. She still remains there teach
ing, unmolested, but says that all that saves
h9r from a coat of tar and feathers is the fact
that she is a woman.-Greenfeid Gazette and

DEATH OF Two AGED FEMALEs-Two of
our worthy and most respectable females died
in this city on Thursday and Friday at advanc-
ed old age. They were Misses Penelope and
Catherine Martin, who came from England
in 1888, and settled in North Yarmouth, but
returned to Portland in 1904. These ladies
had an accomplished education, and Penelope
remained in England until 1890 to complete
her education. For many years they kept
high school for young ladies in North Var.
mouth and in this city, where a thorough edu-
cation was impaired. The school attracted
many scholars from abroad, and there are hun
dreds now living in our city who received
their finishing education at this school. These
two ladies are the last of the family. William
their last brother, died February IA, 1849, al
the age of 86. Peneloped died on Thursday
aged 81, and Catherine died on Friday, aged
SO. They have always had the high respect
of this community, in which they haYe SO long
lived. They were pheasant in their lives
and at death they were not divided. ."-Easterr

The ARMY.-The Secretary of War has
ordered one thousand of Joslyn's breech-load-
ing carbines for the use of the troops on the
frontier, as well as to meet the demands which
have recently been flowing in upon their de-
partment for the supply of this style of arm to
the individual States. The test to which this
arm was put by both the Navy and War De-
partments was of the most severe character,
and its patronage by the government is due
almost wholly to the complete success which
attended its trial. This makes, with the five
hundred rifles ordered by the Navy Depart
ment, fifteen hundred of this style of arms
shortly to be in use in the service. They cost
about $50 per gun.

SKATING AND AMPUTATIoN. Several of
our fair young friends are anxious for us to as
sure their anxious mothers that the sad story
which we lately published of young lady
losing her foot by freezing, occasioned by ex.
posure while skating, is entirely incorrect.
The report had only slight foundation offact.
The young ladies confess that they sometimes
lose their footing, but not their feet We did
not dare to ask whether they lost anything else.
We know OF several young men who met
with great losses upon Mashapaug. They
were consoling themselves, when we last saw
them, by cutting hearts and arrows upon the
ice. 1t shows that when the ice is ever so
hard one may fall into what is more agree
able than water.-ProDidence Journal.
