CHURCH SERVICE.

Religious services we're held in all our
churches; and one of the most significant
signs Of the deep, heartfelt sorrow that
pervaded the brea'ts is of the people was.
that they were all crowded to their utmost
capacity. The exercises in all were very
impressive. The discourse OF Rev. Mr..
Boyle, preached in the Presbyterian
church. will be found on the FIRST and
second pages Of this weeks issue.

which he reported the causes of the disease

He also made sundry recommendations to i'm

said it was truthful, and he would sign and

PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

Mr. EDIToR:-"Quod" in your paper of
OF yesterday says that Mr.. Higgins did not
resign on account of Inadequate compenss-
ton" but because he could get more pay else
where. Wise man that Quod--1easons we'll
says that Mr.. Higgins was satisfed-liked
Portland-bought house and all that-and
only resigned because some other place paid
him more money than we would.
"Quod" also says that we ought not to blame
the city authorities for the low salaries paid
our school teachers. agree with him in this,
Tor know that we never have had and new
er shall have City Council unwilling to pay
fair prices to those who are teaching our chill
dren. ~ 4it'4
No, Mr.. Editor, it is not our City Council
but the School Committee who are to blame;
and call on the City Council to see to it that
some of the lew-priced committee men are
left off next spring, for the salvation of our
schools depends upon it. Why sir, the salary
of female teachers win barely keep body and
soul together. Hence all of these designations.
Miss Merrill recently resigned, cause "inade-
quate compensation" Miss Dana resigns for
same cause, Miss Lord for same, Mr. Stevens
Tor same, Mr.. Higgins-not because he did not
like small salary, but because he liked
larger one better. wide Quod) At this rate
we shall soon lose ali ofour best teachers; and
it is time that parents as well as every one in
terestsd in our schools should wake up and
urge upon the committee the necessity of
changing a course which is sure to bring ruin
upon our schools. & M
l know that many members of the commit
tee feel alarmed at the condition of affairs,
but have not the power-that is the votes-to
change it. Every one knows that our High
School, since it has occupied the new school
house, has been a faiure-at times totally de-
moralized for want of competent teachers,
while the School Committee is cropping round
in the dark trying to get man for $1,000 that
is worth $4,000. In Mr.. Stone we have every
thing wanted, providing the committee sustain
him, but letting all of his, best assistants be
taken away is not the way to do it.
"Quod" thinks we should be careful how we
publish to the world that we pay small SAL
aries don't blame him for wanting to keep
dark, for he has the credit of being the leader
in the School Committee in voting down salar-
les. he says that we payas high as any other
place Of the same size. How is it it that Miss
Merrill gets 5000 in Salem when we only paid
her $500? The very fact of teachers leaving
their homes in Portland is evidence that other
places pay more than we do Come Mr.. aQuod
wake up and do the right thing--you have the
power-use it. PARENT.

EVENING PAPERS.

Reported Discovery of a Febasgous Quantity
TPrecsoass Stones-lMssrsIer and Arrest.
NEW York, Sept. %.
The World has sensation to-day in the
narrative of a Piedmontese named Taglare, of
the discovery by himself and others of large
diamonds and fabulous amounts of other preo-
ious stones, including topaz, emeralds, sap
phires, in the Mount Gents Tunnel. One of
their number claimed the whole and was MUIR
dered by some of the others; then all the ex-
cavating machinery was destroyed and the
work stopped. The others went away with
large amount of gold, and he hid the most val
uahle gems. Offering one for sale at Suez, he
was accused of the murder of an English trav-
eller named Stonewald, in consequence of the
resemblance between the diamond offered for
sale and the one the latter had. Escaping
from prison, he was again arrested at Mar
settles, but previously handing the narrative to
Mr.. Entwistle, an American citizen there.
The French and Italian papers announce the
stoppage Of the work on the tunnel and the
appointment of Mr.. Frouseuto, lawyer before
whom it is alleged Tagliare's narrative was
sworn, to the dictatorship of the tunnel.
The Italian and French governments are
said to be dividing the spoil

RAVAGES OF THE CHOLERA IN CON-
STANTINOPLE.

A correspondent of the New York Tribune,
writing from Constantinople under date Of
August 23rd says that in fifty days the deaths
by cholera amounted to not less than $4,000.
Some days the deaths averaged three thousand
day. The authorities did not publish tie
whole number on any occasion. More than
one hundred thousand people have fed the
city. The city instead of being mart of
trade, is vast hospital. At certain points
dead bodies, in some cases uncofined and
naked have been literally piled up by scores
waiting transportation to the burial places
One OF the cholera hospitals on the old city
wall next the sea had little slide arranged
down which the dead bodies were shot into
boats to be buried in the sea.
Only one death has occurred in the little
American colony here. The youngest son of
the Rev. Mr.. Washburne died two weeks ago,
after few hours illness.
The American missionaries have devoted
themselves to the care of the sick and diving
among the poorer classes, and under their
treatment hundreds of lives have been saved.
While the average mortality in the CITY has
been about sixty-fve per cent. of those attack
ed, under the treatment ofAmcrican missioan-
ries the mortality has not exceeded tfUe per
cent, or setting aside all those lighter cases
which might be cIassed as cholerine.
The cholera has not followed any known
laws in its progress here. 1t has been sup
posed that it avoided high and airy localities,
but here it has ragged with the greatest severi-
ty In some Of the highest, best ventilated, and
most Clearly quarters of the city, while in pre-
Vious epldenics not single case had occur
ed.
Another singular fact is, that the mortality
among the Europeans has been much greater
since the decline of the disease than it was
when at its height.
Another fact is, that those who have fed
from infected districts, in perfect health, have
generally been attacked with disease as soon
as they reached their new and before that
healthy place of refuge.

NEW YORK, Sept. q.
The Times special Washington dispatch
says that Col j. Cushing Edmonds, of the
SD Massachusetts Regiment was dishonorably
dismissed from the service by the War De-
partment, July 18th, 1865, for alleged neglect
Of duty and disobedience of orders. Before
the order of dismissal, he had been honorably
mustered out of the service, and, therefore,
could not be afterwards dishonorably dis
missed. He, however, sought no protection
against the order because of his having been
out of the service when it was issued, but
asked for trial by court martial, which was
granted.
The case has just been tried at Annapolis,
and the total want of evidence of crime or fault
by Col. Edmonds shows how injustice is often
done to meritorious officers by summary dis
missal, based on hasty or malicious accusa-
tons. @

respondent Of the Boston Traveller writes as
follows:
Considerable interest IS being manifested in
the proposed extension of the York & Cum
Derland Railroad, now running from Portland
to Saco River, to Great Falls, N. e., via Alfred,
NE. Other rumors exist that it will be ex-
tended to Rochester, N. H., on the Dover d
Winnipisseogee Railroad, bringing the latter
place nearer Portland than Boston.
The Great Falls G. Conway Railroad is also
moving, with the idea of ultimately connect
ing with the Grand Trunk near Gorham,
road. esi 59lst
The property owners, we understand, have
given the land bordering on the route, and
Several enterprising Boston capitalists, some Of
them largely interested in the Eastern road,
guarantee the requisite funds.
Under these circumstances the Boston &
Maine Railroad would do well to give especial
attention to the interests of Dover, Rochester
and Great Falls.
