for Governor of Connecticut, is said to have
had satisfactory interview with the President
last Wednesday. The President, of course, de-
sired to see his policy sustained wherever the
issue was distinctly and fairly made; bnt said
he had not interfered, and did not propose to
interfere, with the politics of the States. His
friends there knew better than he what course
it was proper for them to take to promote the
great objects which all earnest Union men de-

ASSISTANT QUARTERMAsTER's OFFICE,

To the Editor Of the Press:
It's the wish of the Government that the
graves of all Union soldiers and OF all prison.
ers of war shall be properly cared for.
The Quartermaster General justly remarks,
MIt is known that the Burial Grounds of I'm
ion soldiers in many places will suffer by de-
lay. The least that their country can do for
these brave men is to provide decent resting
place for their remains, and every day is wear
ing away the means of their Identification
and lessening the chances of doing all that is
desirable to do"
10 enable me to promptly comply with my
instructions in relation to this matter, am
DESTROYS of learning the localities of the
graves of Union soldiers in every part OF the
State, and respectfully solicit communities
| tons from superintendents OF burials in every
town where soldiers graves having no marks
to identify them as such, are located. desire
] to learn from them the locality and condition
of such graves, and the name, rank and regi-
ment of all soldiers buried in the districts I'M

1t is my intention to remove bodies to en-
closed cemeteries and provide suitable head

CoMprRonIER CLARKE AGAIN.

COMPTROLLER CLARKE AGAIN. Mr..
Clarke is irrepressible. The real ground of
difference between the Comptroller and the
Secretary of the Treasury is that stated in a
private letter from an officer in the Treasury
Department to a gentleman in this city:-
Clarke counts certificates twice; McCulloch
once. Clarke calls deposits belonging to dis
bursting officers, Government Funds : McCul-
loch knows better. You may rely upon Nc
Culloch. AS to sillegalsale he has saved the
United States 100000 on every million thus
bought and sold-though perhaps not COM
handed by law to do SO. Clarke is in beyond
his depth" f5 1914 ..lfl 10 saa9
A letter from Mr.. Spinner, addressed to the
editor Of the Washington Chronicle, presents
substantially the same view of the case, put
ting Mr.. Clarke entirely in the wrong. Mr..
Clarke has since addressed q note to Treasur-
er Spinner, requesting detailed statement of
the deposits in designated repositories Of pub
lie funds on June Both last. As the report
called for would demand the labor of half a
dozen clerks for several days, Gen. Spinner
has not yet determined to comply with the
Comptroller's request. 1t is to be hoped, that
the information will not be withheld. The
error under which Mr.. Clarke is apparently
laboring, ought to be SO fully exposed as to
leave no occasion for whisper of contradic-
ton. ti3 % 5all1 To li l-St l -e aG u

INVOLVEMENT. - Readers remember Mr..
Lynch's resolution, providing that all vessels
once American, which have been placed under
foreign flag, shall never again be allowed an
American register. 1t is rumored, that an
American citizen residing not a hundred miles
from Portland, finds himself disagreeably
affected by the decision Of Congress. He owns
a fine ship, which during the rebellion sailed
under the British flag, and is now prevented
from returning to her allegiance. the British
agents who hold the property for the owner,
file little bill for taxes payable to the crown.
The American authorities, who know where
the property really belongs, do not forget to
call tor their little taxes. So it happens that
our tax-ridden fellow citizen sees only one path
open to him, and actually purposes to leave his
comfortable house, emigrate to Canada, and
stay there long enough to become British
subject and claim his own property. The next
census will show a falling off of one in the
number of American citizens. 7ai ~ 10

SOAP Manufactorv

the Portland & Kennebec depot. The building
is Of brick and ample for all the purposes re-

In the basement are the Office and salesroom
the latter stocked with boxes of soap, of all
kinds. In the second story is the kettle and
stocking up room, and adjoining that is the boil
er room, in which are three large pans, each of
which will contain 100 gallons of SOAP with
capacity for turning out eight tons of soap
a1 one boiling There are also other pans in
ILLS room by which five or six tons of fancy
soap IN addition, can be manufactured each
week.
Ahe furnace room is in the basement, in the
rear oil the salesroom, and contains a tank ca
pabie of holding 1900 gallons of soap. From
this tank the soap is syphoned off into anoth-
er tank of the capacity of $50 gallons, and
from that it is distributed by pipes into all the
soap pans in the second story. There is a
steam pump for doing all the pumping, both Of
alkalies and water To get rid of the salt lies,
they are syphoned off into the city drain.-
These lies would be valuable to farmers and
asriculturalsts. and it Is singular that they are
not sought after So E29CIfeFS

About dozen different kinds of soaps are

Bradley having been quashed. The Judge
holds the motion for decision.
Z John Harrington and George johnson, the
two lads who were indicted for breaking and
entering the shop of Warren F. Hill, on Ex-
change Street, pleaded guilty. Messrs. How
ard d Cleaves appeared for them. and the for
mer addressed some remarks to the Judge in
favor of merciful consideration of them on
account of their youth, and the manner in
which they had been brought up. Mr.. Webb,
the County Attorney had no objection to their
being leniently dealt with, and said he would
allow them to be discharged upon their own
recognizance until next term. But if they
did not properly behave themselves and dill
gently attend school, he would have them
brought up at the next term for sentence. SO
Judge Tapley addressed the lads and gave
them some excellent advice, which they will
do well to heed. He also addressed their moth
ers and gave them solemn admonition as to
the future manner in which their children
should be brought up. The lads were then
discharged. 4 =. g Do .iessta
