At the annual meeting of the Maine Hstor-
ical Society, at Brunswick, during the current
week, a letter was presented by Hon. James
w. Bradbury, from Hon. Joseph II. Williams,
proposing to place forever in the custody of
the Society certain important documents, now
valuable for their historical associations and
uses, which for forty years have been in the
keeping of the late Hon. Reuel Williams The
letter, which has been entered upon the Socie-
tvs records, and which was appropriately no
ticed in the Society's action, sufficiently ex-
plains itself:
AUGUSTA, Aug. 4, 1862
Hon. james W. Bradbury,
DEAR SIR: 1t is now forty years since the
muniments of title of the Propretors of the
Kennebec Purchase from the Plymouth Colo
ny, with their books of records, grants, dc,
came into my fathers hands for saie-keeping,
under certain votes Of the said Proprietors,
passed April 25, 1916 tsee records, vol. 5, D.
1881, and April "a, 1922 ibid, p. 27o).
Having heard my father say, not many weeks
before his decease, that the value of these an
Gent books and papers had become chiefly
historical, and that they might now be proper
ly transferred to the Maine Historical Society
for safe-keeping, deem it my duty, through
you, to tender to that Society fulflment of
my fathers purpose thus expressed.
Among the books and documents are the
following, viz:
l. The Original (vellum) Deed of the Colo
ny of Plymouth TO Antipas Boyes and ais,
under date October 9th, 1861, in a metal
case.
2. The Proprietors' Records, vols. /, 3 3,
and 5.
8. The Original Plan of Survey of Is Eng
fish miles on each side of Kennebec River, by
John North, Esq, dated Dec 49, 1851.
T. A Day-Book and Ledger.
8. Two volumes of Letter Books
g. Titles traced and stated by Nathan Dane.
Z. Books of Grants, viz: vol. 3, III TO 1885,
vol. 4, 179S TO 1910; vol. 5, 1910 to 1916; vol.
9, 1916 to 1919.
will be most happy to deliver the Proprie-
tors chest, containing the above-named vol
umes, plan, and various documents in files. to
any person who may be authorized by the
Maine Historical Society to receivet. and to
engage in writing, in behalf of the said So
ciety that the records, plan and documents
shall henceforth be kept by them in some safe
and secure building, in the town where their
own archives are kept, and that they shall be
preserved In good order and unmutilated,
agreeabiy to the spirit of the trust which was
reposed by the Proprietors in my father, in
the several votes to which have before re-
ferred.
have the honor to be,
Very respectfully, your ob't serv't,
JOSEPH III. WILLIAMS.

He declares that Richmond has not been
evacuated nor are there any signs Of pesti-
lence. The rebel army lies east of the city
and he is confident that its effective numbers
have been greatly exaggerated.
Stonewall jackson. he says, is at Gordons-
vile with $1,000 or 10000 men.
The Times has a letter giving the details of
the Malvern Hill expedition. and the writer
says that Gen. Mcclellan intends to hold the
position.
The Tribune gives the following: Our loss
will reach 40 killed and wounded. No Maine
names. The casualties in the 18th Mass. were
all by single shell. Besides the above the
18th Mass. lost or and the 26th Pennsyl-
vania as many.
Special dispatches from Washington say that
Richard Busteed OF New York, has been APP
pointed Brig. General of Volunteers, to report
to Gov. Morgan.
10000 troops in the Western States are now
ready for the field.
Cassus NJ. Clay, it is said, is likely to assume
command at Cincinnati Of the new department

Prominent kentuckians in Washington have
been assured that troops shall be crowded into
Kentucky as fast as they are raised in Ohio

CAMP NEAR HARRISON LANDING,
AuUuet 1890

August i, 1862
Very early this morning, say not far from
midnight, our ears were startled by the noise
of cannonading from the other side of the
James River. The firing came from rebel
battery planted there the day before, the guns
so arranged as to bear upon our camp. The
firing lasted an hour or so without doing us
any damage. The gunboats replied occasion
ally. The crew of one of our gunboats land
ed this afternoon on the opposite shore, and
burnt large dwelling house, negro quarters
and all, belonging to some noted rebel. This
house was the one used by the rebels to mask
their guns. 1t afforded them an opportunity
to bring up their battery of field pieces with
out being discovered. 1t is high time that our
army occupied both sides of the James River.
So long as the enemy is allowed to hold one
bank, he can bring up his portable batteries
where he chooses, and when he pleases fire in
to our transports.
The health of the It'll Me. Regiment is slow
ly improving. Our commissary department is
better supplied with vegetables. Men occa-
sionally get potatoes, onions, cabbages, dried
apples and soft bread, though soft bread and
cabbages are not served out as rations. Most
of the regiment are still obliged to use hard
bread. Whoever invented this kind OF bread
should be obliged to live on it.
BY the way, cannot our State send out 500
recruits for our regiment? We need the men,
and it will be better for them to be in the Me.
18th, than in any new regiment; besides we
have prestige of which every recruit may
well be proud.
Weather continues very warm. Occasion
ally we get cool breeze from the river. ID.

bred thousand dolars-a part of the proceeds
of her cargo of ammunition and other valua-
bles she carried to Charleston-is now secreted
on board. She is splendid vessel. 1t is sta
ted that she cost 100000.

HEADQUARTERS 7TH Me. Vols.
Camp near Harrison's Landing,
Aug. 2, 1862.
Last night stiffness again prevailed. A large
house and tine surroundings were burned on
the other side of the river, about P. NJ. They
had served as shelter for the enemy while
getting their batteries into position. Our
troops now occupy both sides of the river at
Harrison's Landing. Contrabands are made
to dig the trenches where it is practicable,
which relieves our men of much burden. Cav
airy scouts are daily sent out to scour the
country and keep posted on the movements of
the enemy. Strict orders have been issued by
our generals TO have the men kept in camp,
ready for the move at any moment. Every
man is supplied with go rounds ball cartridges.
The designations Of Capt. Z. II. Cass, Co. II,
and Lieut.. John H. Fogg, Co. X, have been
accepted. ARoosTooK.
