Gymnastic Exercises.

practical printer of long standing in that
city, delivered an address before the New

My hearts desire and prayer to God
for our boys, is that they may be saved,
not only from dissipation, vice and crime,

to lure ana tempt them from the straight

WAYS of ruin and dcath--but also. as far
as may be, from the physical lassitude,

so rressingly invited"
After speaking Of the homemade Gar
den of Eden, the Central Park, and adj
hitting that is saving the girls of that
city. he comes to the main point in his
subject, how to save the boys. To do
this something useful, instructive, health
full and pleasing must be provided. Boys
are very much like men, and the most
pious and devout christian man knows the
difference between dry, doctriaal dog

with eloquent power and the most soul
stirring pathos; and though he may tolcr-
ate the former, yet he always prefers the
latter, So do both the witty and the dull
the boisterous and the quiet, among al
their interesting juveniles. Boys being
like men are attracted by that which is
instructive and agreeable, aud like men
are repealed by the reverse. Young men
of spirit and life will learn fun of some sor
and will find and minglc their souls Will
souls which can mngle. Black coats, rig

and friendly but they will never attrac

young people
Such is the tenor of this address through
out. To provide some amusement for til,
boys, he appeals to those interested an,
proposes a gymnasium. In this he hopei
to find a remedy to great extent, for pres
ent defective education, and the disposition
to go into dissipation. The Gymnasium
says the lecturer, is an ancient and vener
able institution. but has recently been in

T emont, June sth, 1865.

~ The notorious John Mitchell, editor
of the leading rebel paper in Richmond
during the war, has taken charge of the
New York -Ne'cs, the leading eoppcrhead
paper in New York city. This only re-
qured transfer of himself from one city
TO the other. But it is now said that
Mitchell has been notified by the President
that If he would save his head, he will
have to show clean pair Of heels. 1t is
difficult to understand the necessity of Civ
ing such base fellow such notice.
The Montreal Herald announces the ac-
oession of the new editor of the New York
Daily Ne,es, and compliments him as fol-
lows: -
"Mr. Mtchell's recommendations to the
intending insurgents of 1913, show him TO
be admirably adapted to advise and con-
sole the party in whose midst have been
cOntrived the various novel methods of
making war, by raids, assassination arson,
yellow fever, and poison. of which We have
lately heard so much and there can be no
doubt that his friendship for Great Britain
makes him the natural ally Of the Canadi-
an editors, with whom desire for the sue
cess of the slaveholding rebellion has for
some years been held to be an equivalent
expression for loyalty to the British throne
Mr. Mitchell is the right man in the right
place. and proves that Philosopher Square
was not wholly wrong when he held to the
ultimate demonstration of the eternal fit
ness of things"

Notes Of Third Series of 7-3Os
now ready.

The demand for the Second Series of the
$50 Notes was so great that the Treasury
Department was unable to print them
with sufficient rapidity to fill the orders
It will be remembered that hundred
millions were subscribed and paid for in
single week. The printing presses have
finally surmounted the difficulty, and on
Wednesday, June 9TH, the deliveries Of
the Third Series commenced, and will be
continued with the same promptness that
marked the supply of the notes of the first
and second series. 1t has been this inter
ruptien of delivery at the time of sub
scription which has given an appearance
of falling off in the popular taking of the
loan.-the great body of small takers be-
ing unwilling to pay their money unless
they receive their notes right in hand, to
carry them home. 1t is expected that
after this week the daily subscriptions to
the Seven Thirties will run up into
millions. as they will undoubtedly be
stimulated by the opening of the farmers
wool markets East and West. 1t is not
at all likely that the Government will ever
again, offer SO, desirable a security as these
notes, and about two hundred millions re-
main to be taken.
With tho close of the war the national
expenses will be vastly reduced, and in
vestors must look for sharp reduction in
the rate Of interest as soon Us the present
loans become due, and con be paid Off
There is no reason why the United States
credit for money should ever again fall be-
low its credit for courage. The same spirit
that preserved tho geographical integrity
Is the country will place its pecunary in
tegrity on par with that of the most
favored natlons--and that will represent
rate Of interest under rather than over
four per cent.

Ellsworth Cole ct orship.

We take the following from the Machias
Union:
A special by clothes line telegraph
aflirms that trouble exists at Ellsworth
over the rcntention of the present Cvilect-
or and appointment of successor. 1t
seems that Mr.. Pike, agreeabiy to plans
and promises arranged during the exciting
canvas last year for Congressional nomina,
ton, recently procured the nomination OF
Bro. Sawyer. of the american, for Col
lector at Ellsworth rice Thomas. The
change was well enough and in view of
the doctrine of rotation was honorable,
besides Mr.. Pike was cancelling an obliga,
ton to Bro. Sawyer for services in time OF
need.
The path to distinction and promotion
appeared unobstructed 20 our neishbor Of
the Amey icdn, when all at once, it is stated
Ex-Nice President Hamlin mterfcred and
declared that Thomas should not he re-
moved A thnndcrbolt darling from the
Penpbscot to Union river whose echoes
reached to the st. Croix, to arouse the as
tonishcd Pike, and learn him that the best
laid schemes of mice and men sometimes
come to naught
The disappointment to Bro. Sawyer
must lie considerable. We tender him
our sympathy. and trust that he may vet
overcome the watchfulness of the wiery
Ha nnibal and win the coveted place.
We thank the Uaian for its tender Of
sympathy but VIC do not stand In need OF
the article just now. But its notice sug-
gcsts that there may be something relating
to the recent appointment, and the parties
that have taken an interest in the matter,
either directly or remotely, which may in
terest the public, and that something VIC
purpose to vcntilatc at the proper time
In the meantime as to the caution to be on
the guard for the "wry Hannibal, we can
only say that the last official public act
which his friends boast of his doing in
Washington, was the putting the bottle to
his successors lips {: vide Mr.. Riccs state
mcnt, as 1t was related in New York.
1t may he proper to say, now. also, that
Mr.. Pike did not make us any promises
and that we did not ask him to do so, be-
fore his election. That we did him good
service, is true, and under like circum-
stances We should do so again.
Mr.. Hamlin's interest in the matter, lies
beyond our humble self. Somebody pre-
vented his going into the cabinet.

Lords Building.

Just opposite the Ellsworth House,
stands large wooden building, which has
been tcnantlcss half the time since erect
ed in 1850. In the third story Is Hall,
called Lords Hail." In this our people
have often had glorious times. The sec
ond story has been used for all manner OF
purposes, at times, school teaching, preach
ing, for tonsorial uses, &c., &c, &c. The
first story has been occupied as boot and
shoe shop, furniture shop, stove store &C.,
&c. The basement has been useless the
most of the time.
Another change has come over this build
ing Mr.. Jordan the owner, has fitted up
stalls in the basement for his livery horses
and moved them into the new quar-
tiers. and fitted up the second story for hi,
carriages. The outlook Of the establish.
ment NOW. is good, and it Will no doubt &c

1t may be remembered that { rmidable rebel

strikinga wreck while coming from the dry dock
in Charleston harbor. This vessel was raised on
the 25ta Of April, and in seven days after she was
towed down the harbor and prepared for sea. The
werk was finished on the 23d, and the iron. clad
Columbia, in tow Of the Vanderbilt, started for
the North. She reached Fortress Monroe on the
18th and is now lying of the dry dock there, in

struction. The last acquisition can be estimated
by her proportions length Of deck 2l5 feet,
beam 81 feet and inches, depth of hold, Is

We had a loyal population of whites to
rely upon. the policy of confering the right
might be questionable, but no such class
exists to great extent, or their loyalty
is of questionable character, and there
fore we may in self defence have to ask
that class of the South, that has always
been true and loyal. to assist in securing
to the country peace for the future by
giving us good republican state constitu-
tons. 1t need not be said that he will
not know how to vote He knew how to

always true, you can't cheat him.
