gB-The Press has just entered upon its
second quarter. 1t has not yet come up to
our ideas of what paper should be in Port
land-to the point aimed at in the start-to
the point to which we hope to bring it before
another three months passes. We now work
over 2000 copies daily and the increase is still
onward. We will do the best we can to add
the new features which are needed to make it
still more worthy of the generous patronage
already extended to it.

AUGUSTA, otpt. z5 Iobz.
Editors Press: Col Nickerson, of the 14th
regiment, passed through this city yesterday
on his way from New Orleans TO his home at
Searsport.
He will return in about ten days. The 14th
and 18th regiments are at Pensacola. Col
Nickerson is still of the same opinion with ref
der to crush the Rebellion. Gen. Phelps re-
turned with the Colonel.

.B- The New York World, in an article
highly eulogstic of Gen. Mcclellan, says:

The season of the year is propitious for mill
tary activity; the same consummate generalshp
which has beaten the rebel army, at its maxi
mum strength and in the flush of victory, NAV
be confidently trusted to cope with it strip
ped of the prestige of success, repulsed, dsap-
pointed, and growing every day relatively
weaker. Gen. Mcclellan has made a glorious
beginning in Maryland; there is no reason to
doubt that, under his direction, the final issue
will be equally glorious and satisfactory in
Virginia.

blow should become necessar to save they
country, Thank God that so many are al
ready committed to this idea In the last
legislature no men spent more time or used
more words to prove the right of the Presi-
dent to do this, than Messrs. Gould and Brad
bury,-the former the recent democratic can
didate for Congress in his District; the latter
the late democratic candidate for Governor of
the State
Now we call upon those gentlemen, and
those who have voted for them, and the papers
that have supported them, to stand up nobly
and sustain the President in his action, under
the war power, as Commander-in-C Chief. Will
the Argus be as ready to do it as it has been
to contend for his right to take the step he
has taken? viii our neighbors of the Adver-,
tiser stand by the President in his new move
We trust so. We expect to see no flinching
now. The President has been willing to save
the country and Constitution ,cith slavery; he
has tried to do so; he now virtually tells us
that he finds it impracticable to try much
longer in that direction, and he is about to
take the other alternative, and if possible save
the country and the Constitution icithom
slavery-allowing that to go by the board
We have stood by him heretofore; we shall
stand by him hereafter. We were willing to
welcome saved Union, restored country
and an unsubverted Constitution, even with
"our greatest national curse" hanging about
us; but we will welcome with a peculiar
zest the salvation of all these blessings, though
providentially, that curse should be removed
thereby.

EVENING NEws.-The only items of inter-

were the following, dated New York, Septem-
Der 23d:
A special dispatch to the Philadelphia In
quirer, dated Jeilersonyille, Ind 22d, says the
rebel Generals, Bragg and Smith, have divided
their forces. Smith is to hold Gen. Buel in
check, while Bragg advances on Louisville.
Bragg summoned Gen. Nelson to surrender
the city. He refused, and is prepared to meet
him.
Bragg is some distance from Louisville but
is advancing rapidly.
Gen, Nelson is confident of his ability to
whip the enemy.

FIRE.--A little past o'clock yesterday
morning, a fire was discovered in the L part of
the Cumberland House, on Green street. The
flames spread with great rapidity, and in
short time the large stable attached to the
hotel was in flames. There was large num-
Der of horses, cows and carriages and a guam
tity of hay and grain in the stable. The hay
and grain were destroyed with the stable, the
horses, carriages and cows were saved. The
tannery of Mr.. J. S. Kicker was injured to the
extent of some 800 or 400 dollars A dwell
ing-house adjoining, belonging to the estate of
the late Albert Forbes, Esq, was also injured
to the amount of $500 or $500. The main
building of the hotel was damaged by fire and
water TO the extent of probably 5000. The
hotel was owned by Lewis Pierce, ESQ.,, and
occupied by Mr.. Littlefied. The furniture
was mostly saved.
There was insurance upon the hotel for
$1,000, and on the stable for $500 at the Al gency
of W. ID. Little, Esq, which will cover the
loss. Mr. Kicker was fully insured at the
Conway Office, at the Agency of John f. Dow,
Esq. Mr.. Lttlefield had no insurance
AT one time it looked as if il would be a
very destructive fire. surrounded as the hotel
was with wooden buildings. But the indomi-
table energy of the firemen kept the flames
from spr' aiding. Ocean Company No. 4 got
the first stream of water on the fire; ,hen
the steam engines began to play they showed
at once their great utility.
We regret to state that six of the firemen-
Samuel Thurston, Leonard Ross, J. l. Barbour,
Frank Merrill, James Bickncll and w. C.
Clark were injured by the falling of CHM
ney in the l. part Of the house. The three
first are the most severely injured. Mr..
Thurston more SO than any-but it is not sup
posed that their injuries are dangerous.
The fire was discovered by person who
lodged in room over the place where it
caught, and who was awakened by the smoke.
Its origin cannot be accounted for. In the
opinion of Mr.. Littlefield it was the work of
an incendiary.

INTERVENTION RUMoRs.-The New York
Evening Post gives currancy to the report
which is said to be derived from "a person who
has access to trustworthy sources of informa-
tion both in England and France" that France
intends to interfere in our blockade of the
Southern Ports and to recognize the South
ern ConIederacy. Its informant says:
"Now, it is asserted that Mr.. Slidell has
made an agreement with the Emperor to de-
liver to him, at a stated price, low in compari-
son with the present prices, five hundred
thousand bales of cotton. In return for this,
the Emperor, it is said, promises to recognize
the rebels as AN independent government; and
promises further to force open some one South
ern port-Mobile, Savannah or Charleston
and hold it, in behalf and in trust for the reb-
els, against the government of the United
States. The cotton to be delivered to him is
to be lodged at this port, and taken thence to
French ships Finally, it is asserted that the
attempt to thus open Southern port will be
made within sixty days of the present time"
