wisconsin Branch .. s. Christian Commission.

The q. S. Christian Commission was or
ganized in November, 1861, and consisted Of
twelve members. In order, however, to bring
actively into the work a large number of
well known Christian gentlemen, to preserve
its nationality by the election of at least one
member from each loyal state and territory,
and to secure Catholicity, by having repre-
sented in it all the various evangelical de-
nominations, it has recently been enlarged to
fifty members. The official list is not yet
published, but we understand that the mem
Der appointed from this State is Walter S.
Carter, of Milwaukee. The State of Wiseon-
sin has also been constituted a branch Of the
commission, and officers and members ehO-
sen as follows:

the State, heretofore sending money and
stores elsewhere, should now send to the

THEATRE.-Mr. Mexican BuchdRan.-The
celebrated tragedian and comedian made his
debut last evening, and was warmly welcomed
by a fashionable audience. His daughter,
Miss Virginia Buchanan, evidently made
sensation in the character OF Lady Gay Span
ker. This evening both of these artists APP

OF Mr.. Mexican Buchansns Richard the Liv-
erpool Herald says:
Theatre Roydi.-Mr. Mexican Buchanan
made his last appearance in the character OF
Richard Ill. The opening scenes were well
conceived and executed. The scene with
Lady Anne was iudieiously played; not over
acted, yet sufficiently "wheedling" to over
come the scruples of woman whose father
and husband he had murdered The more
stirring portions of the character were full of
fire and earnestness, without degenerating
into rant, and Mr.. Buchanan's fine voice and
noble figure told well amidst the hustle when
Richard is fighting for the crown. No actor
of the present day can approach him in This
part. 1t is magnificent rendering of Shake
speare's conception, and second only to that
of Edmund Keen. At the fall of the curtain
he was called for, and received the enthusiast
tic plaudts Of a full house-LiUerpool Herald,

Temperance Meeting in Scarborough.

To the Editor Of the Press
The friends of Temperance in Cumberland
County, propose to meet at Dunslan's Cor
ner tomorrow "Wednesday afternoon, at
O'Clock, to see what can be done for the pro-
motion of the cause.
There is no excuse for selling rum, and
none for drinking. The traffic is outlawed,
and the use is promiscuous. One violates
civil law, the other moral. No rumseller.
whose heart is not adamantine, is at ease In
the business, and every rum drinker admits
that the use is injurious. What sense then is
there in selling or drinking it2 Why be a
slave to mammon or appetite?
The evils which flow from Intoxicating
drinks are enormous. They are the direct,
palpable cause of many, and the indirect
source Of most of the troubles which afilict
society. This is either true or untrue. II true
how important, and how loudly it calls upon
all who would benefit the community TO en-
gage in the glorious work, or renew their ef-
forts. II untrue, it is not less important, and
challenges those who sell or drink to come
forward and Justify the traffic or use. Indeed
they are hereby invited TO meet their oppo-
nents under the pledge that they shall be
treated courteously, and have an equal share
of the time.
But will they come, or failing, do they thus
confess that the friends OF Temperance are in
the right, and themselves in the wrongp The
just inference, submit, leaves them in dis
putabe position. TEMPERANCE.

The Congressional Ercursion.

BANGOR, ME-, Aug. 10.
The citizens Of Bangor received the Con-
gressional Committee at the City Hall at 10 80
this morning, Mayor S. Ii. Dale presiding
5. c. Hatch, Esq, Of Bangor, presented the
party to the Mayor, who received them most
cordially. Members from each State repre-
sented, responded happily, and the party then
proceeded to the house OF Mayor Dale, where
they partook of an elegant collation..
At three o'clock in the afternoon the party
proceeded, by invitation of John w. Veazie,
Esq, agent OF the Oldtown Railroad, to In
dian Oldtown, where the Indians greeted their
arrival by a salute of artillery. The Indians
had prepared big gondola, with a flying
American flag, TO take the party to the island.
They we're formerly received by Governor
Joseph Aitteon and LieutGoy John Neptune,
the latter being one hundred and six years
old.
Gov. Atteon, with dignity, received the
party who were tremendously presented, and
through his counsellor, Joseph Nicola. adj
dressed ihem referring to his people meeting
a commission fifty-six years ago, TO sell their
lands; thanking God that remnant of his
people were left to meet this commission from
the Great Father. His tribe had been reduc-
ed through internal dissensions. He trusted
our. great nation would never be reduced
through such cause, to such a miserable
remnant.
He wished the Committee to remember the
Penobscot's, in friendship, to the President
He said we are reduced by war, this little
tribe of six hundred souls, having sent twenty
warriors into the National armies. But your
cause is just, being to free those n bondage.
The prayers of our tribe will 90 with you for
your safe return.
Appropriate responses were made by Hon.
John III. Rice and others.
Returning to Oldtown the party visited the
immense saw mills and partook OF a collation.
prepared by the citizens. At six o'clock the
party returned to Bangor, the Indians firing
parting salute from the island.
This evening brilliant leyee is being given
at Norembega Hall, in honor OF the party.
We leave at eight O'Clock tomorrow morn

Cumberland County Temperance Conven-
ton,

The next meeting of the Cumberland Coun-
ty Temperance Convention will be held at
Dunstans Corner Scarboro', on Wednesday
18th inst, commencing at o'clock in the af-
ternoon and continuing. through the evening
The necessity for doing something to stay the
increasing tide Of intemperance is apparent in
every city and village in our State and much
more SO in other States. To say that well-di-
rected labor accomplishes nothing In saving
the drunkard from the drunkard's path,
would be to deny the clearest evidence of his
tory and our own observation. The suffer-
ing, immortality and crime caused directly by
intemperance fully justiGes the urgent call
for the friends of Temperance to meet and
take counsel together for the purpose of de-
vising some way TO more efIectually check its
progress. Gen. Neal Dow and other earnest
friends of Temperance are expected to be at
Scarboro' on Wednesday.

James 0lcott Brown,

The subject of this notice died on the night
OF the l4th inst, at his summer residence at
Glen Cove, after brief and painful illness.
Mr.. Brown was the second son of the Hon.
John b. Brown, of this city. he was born at
Portland on the 2Sth of October, 1885, and
was graduated, with the highest honors of his
class, at Bowdoin College in the year 1856
In the autumn of 1860 he was married to Miss
Emily Kemble Oliver, daughter of the Hon.
II. K. Oliver, Treasurer Of the State of Massa-
chusetts.
1t cannot be objected to the succeeding re-
marks concerning the life and character of
this young man, that they are merely the ut
terances OF friendship; because most who
have encountered and known him as a stu.
dent, a citizen and a man of business, have
not failed to cherish towards him sentiments
OF regard and respect. At College he pur-
sued such habits and developed such elements
OF character as won for him the warmest
friendship Of all his classmates, and the es-
TEEN and confidence Of his instructors. Later
years served only to fulfill the promise of his
college life, and exhibited him a man of pure
and spotless character, warm and generous
nature, a refined and cultivated taste, and a
judgment that was correct and mature. Be-
fore advancing to ftIrthur enumeration of
the incidents OF his life, so short, yet interest
ing and useful 10 so high degree, l cannot
refrain from the mention OF single character
istic that shone prominent in every occasion
when its manifestation became necessary or
appropriate. He was possessed of a patriot
ism that quailed before no opposition, and
could not be dampened or cooled by disaster.
Sometime after leaving college, in company
with his parents and sister, he passed the
larger portion of year in a tour of the Con-
tinent Of Europe, and after his return became
member of the house of John b. Brown a
Sons, with which he was associated at the
time Of his decease. During the comparative
ly brief period of his business life, Mr.. Brown
had associated himself with the religious, ed
vocational and mercantile interests of the COM
munity. In the present whirlpool and de-
rangement of our national affairs. men who
move and labor in the retired and peaceful
walks OF life may be passed without particular
remarks; but "a few years have proved Mr..
Browns to be one of those pure, quiet unob-
trusiye but beneficial characters, upon which
society can always with safety rely, with
whom IL can entrust its most essential inter
ests, and man whose loss ii cannot but feel
and deplore. To the reputation of correct,
reliable and highly informed merchant he add
ed the ornaments OF gentleman, a scholar
and man OF letters. Besides the poignant
grief of his immediate family and relatives,
there is a sorrow, consequent upon his de-
cease, common to wide circle of friends and
acquaintance, that for many day will recur,
simultaneously with the recollection of the
good the useful and the upright young man.

Joux B,,tIs CnoAKING-Tbe

JoHY BULLS CRoAKING.-The London
correspondent of the New York Tribune says
the English aristocracts' comments on the re-
cent rebal raid into Maryland, If well conden-
sed, wonld result in the essence of screeh-owl
or decoction of raven, like Ralph Niekleby's
voice in the ear Of Mr. Mantalini, its nothing
but "croak croak dem'd horrid croaking."
They fondy believed Washington, Phlladel-
phia and Boston would be taken, aud that the
North was as good as taken and the rebellion
triumphant These old aristocrats will have
to wait awhile longer ere such hopes can be
turned into fruition. By the indulgence of
such feelings towards our republic they are
only making work for repentance. There is
day coming when these accounts must be all
settled.

He says it is a question of subsistence, but
Richmond can never be starved out until the

James river canal and the railroad from the
