Arrival Home Of the 10th Maine.

The 10th Maine regiment, numbering % Of
ficers and $50 enlisted men, arrived here in q
special train from Boston at 745 Saturday
evening. At the depot large concourse Of
men and women was gathered, who gave the
veterans an enthusiastic reception-the men
cheering and the women waving their hand
kerchiefs. They we're received at the Port
land and Kennebec depot by Mayor Mcclellan,
who welcomed the soldiers home. A bouuti-
full repass. prepared by Mr.. Higgins, and fur.
nished by the city, was spread In the depot
building, of which the soldiers partook with
keen Eest.
These veterans of many well fought bat
tie presented fine appearance. Their bronzed
countenances betokened the services which
they had endured, and their tattered and torn
nags showed that they had been engaged In
fierce conflicts. But they were rejoiced to
once more reach their native State and be
among their own kindred and friends.
Col Starbird OF the 10th, was wounded on
the 9TH of April at High Bridge, during the
pursuit Of Lee, and remains at Seminary Hos
pital, Georgetown, still suffering from the eff
feet of his wound.
The following are the officers who returned
with the regiment:
Lieut. Col. J. w. Spaulding, commanding:

Talbot, and Charles 81. Foye were admitted

Other names were proposed for member
ship, which stand over to the next meeting.
The subject of the manufacture Of boots ana
shoes were taken up, and the resolutions
passed at the meeting of the boot ana snoe
dealers Of this city were read.
Mr.. d. Robinson, Jr., expressed MS views
IN favor of corporations for the manufacture.
So far as his observations extended all we'll
conducted establishments Tor the manufac-
ture of boots and shoes had proved profitable.
He had made many enquiries Of persons
thoroughly coaversant in the business; and
thew thought that a business of 100000 annu-
ally could be done on capital Of $4,000.
There would also be an accession to the popu-
lation and wealth Of the place, where such
manufactures were established.
Mr.. Jersey stated what he had witnessed
In one Of the best manufactures in the city Of
Lynn. ss
Mr.. NJ. G. Palmer cited the establishment Of
Messrs. Breed g Turkey, in this city, as one
where work was quickly performed by ma
chinery. 6g qAiaeiaa
After some remarks by Mr.. shurtleif, who
said that although he was not present at the
meeting of the shoe dealers, yet he cordially
eoncurred in the resolutions passed by them
Mr.. G. II. Haskell and others, the subject was
laid upon the table, on motion Of Mr.. Rich,
until the committee appointed to nominate a
committee on manufactures shonld report.
Hon. J. B. Brown, from the above men
toned committee, reported that the commit
tee had had several meetings; but as the
Mechanic Association had expressed wish to
join the Board Of Trade in this matter, the
committee had waited to hear from that As
sociation. BE, however, would report the
names OF JONAS Il. Perley, Esq, and g. P.
Kimball, Esq, as the members of the commit
tee on manufactures on the part Of the Board
of Trade. Said committee to unite with the
committee from the Mechanic Association.
Mr.. Brown spoke of the great Importance
of the measure now before the Board. and
urged the members to come up maufully to
what he conceived TO be their duty. He
hoped the subject would be thoroughly dis
cussed and investigated.

Surrender of Kirby Snsifh- Troops for Texas.
vea oH aaars NEW YoRK, June 8.
e The New Orleans papers contain details OF
the surrender of Kirby Smiths forces. The
capitulation was completed on the 18th of
May. Gen. Buckner, it appears. conducted
this the last capitulation as he did the first at
Fort Donelson. He showed Gen. CANDY. in
disputabIe authority to act for Smith. The
rebel navy was represented by Capt. Carter.
Gen. Dick Taylor was present.
1t is probable, therefore, that competent
Federal force will move forward at once to
occupy the principal cities of Texas.
Ia the meaa.inas rebel Representatives will
remain within our line to give counsel and
advise as to social order; while Gen. Smith
proceeds through his department, to prepare
