PORTLAND, Me-, Dec. 3.
The distress in cotton districts in Eng
land has claimed great attention. Con-
tributlons are unprecedently large.
Accounts from Galibaldi are cheering.
The following is CLEANED from news
sent per steamer City Of Manchester:
The journals genera y reproach Eng
land for holding back from offered me-
diatior. 1t is reported much disappoint-
mcnt existed as TO the course of France
and Russia, as the proposition was sent
to ST. Petersburg before it was sent to
London. The assent Of Russia was re.
he'd on, and it was expected to influence
England.
The London Times and Ne-s thinks
the recent events. including the Demo
cratic success, confirm the wisdom OF
England's course.
The Ueruia asserts that the relations
Of England and France have assumed al
unsatisfactory character; consequently
their refusal to interfere.
The Globe ridicuIes this idea, and the
prevailing impression is that the Demo
cratic successes are a step towards peace,
and tend to keep the government within
constitutional limits.

o. ALMOST every square in the city there
are broken pIanks and places where planks
have been: evesores in the day time and man
traps at night The marshal only allows this
week for the work to be done by owners OF
lots thereafter the city will take 1t in hand,
and the costs will accumulate. We notice
some persons are attending to their premises,
and have done the required work already
Ddr. ca, 3OH.
Of all the miserable contrivances for side.
walks, this city can beat any other in the
west We should think the dry goods deal,
ers and the shoemakers had bribed the SUI
peryi:ors to leave spikes sticking up and
broken boards and stick. to tear dresses and
ruin shoes. Many of the walks were origin
ally bull, Of thin boards, and space left un.
derneath, so that if COW or horse should
step on the walk board would be broken, at
once. In many places, too, the teams are al
lowed TO drive over the walks, unmo!e-ted
Other walks were built Of soft brick, which
have worn away and become softencd by
the rains until they are nuisance.
Supervisors have plenty of law on theil
side, and they could remedy matters If they
pleased to do so. But they are either too lazy
or don't know how, or afraid Of offending
somebody and thus losing their election mex
year, and so they do nothing. If they are NJ
better than wooden men, let the council re
move them and appoint men who will d
their duty. 1t is a shame, a disgrace 10 tn
city to allow such old rattle-trap sidewalks t
| exist another week.

lot with $500 in gold, besides 500 to her
daughter: an act Of libcrality which finds
too few parallels. - Dwe"poH Gazcttc
The Ga.etc is mistaken in regard TO the
foreclosure" part. Mr.. Andrews never mort.
gagged HI, home place to ANY one, and there
never wa, any kind Of incumbrauce upon the
pla,e. In his will Mr.. Andrews authorized
his executors Mrs Andrews and Judge
Gould, to sell the property, if in their juds.
mcnt they deemed it best Il was an out
right sale to Mr.. Gable, without any under
standing or expectation that the estate was
to receive anything more than the purchase
money 1t is true that it was "A great bar
gain-tD Il man who could afford to own the
place. There is acres Of beautiful land and
the house probably cost $4,000 to build.
But where could the executors find a purcha.
ser a man who had the ready cash? Mr..
Cable can afford to own such place. and lie
will make it the most elegant residence in
this region of country. But there are few
people who could afford to buy it at any price,
and kept in order, and pay the taxes, in,
surancc, etc.
The Gazette says none too much in regard
to the act Of IIberality, on the part Of Mr..
Gable With all his reputation for SHARP
trades, and money-making, no one can accuse
him of dishonorabc act. We have few
! kinder hearted men in this city than ,. L.
! Gable, and few who know better how to do i
substantial act Of generosity.
