GIRLS HIGH SCHOOL LIBRARY.-While we
mourn the loss of the Athenaeum and Mercan-
tile Libraries, we are happy to learn that the
library of the "Girls Library Association of the
Portland High School" is rapidly rising to fill
the void. 1t already numbers 1900 volumes,
of the most readable character and selected
with great care and taste; no musty, respecta-
BILE old volumes which forever occupy their
shelves in dusty dignity, but fresh, live books,
histories, poems, biographies. travels, essays
and standard novels, just what everybody
wishes to read. Any girl in the school may
take books from it during her whole course for
81 80; and any one who has ever been mem
Der of the school since its organization in 1851,
can take books for 100 year.
This opens the library to hundred Of families
in the city, and if they would avail themselves
Of the privilege the number of books would
soon be greatly increased, and Portland might
boast fine large library gathered by woman's
efforts "'p .'5sis1ah ila.
A catalogue has recently been issued, and
now persons can select their books at home
and send for them or choose them from the
shelves on Saturday afternoon. anlns
The Library Association will hold their ad-
journed annual meeting at the Library on Sat
urday afternoon next, Oct. g. at4 o'clock, when
an opportunity will be offered for all former
members of the school to join, and they are
cordially invited to do SO. 5fI ai a7fs SIS

there is a certain warmth and glow about

GERMAN IGNoRANcE.-Mr. George Alfred
Townsend, the lively foreign correspondent Of
the New York World, writes from Berlin as
follows: .t....f
Yesterday returned from pleasant trip
through the beautiful Duchy of Nassau, and it
is amusing to observe how the new order Of
things is looked on by the inhabitants. The in
telligent and better class are now glad that they
are now allied to the Prussians, and hope the
rich resources and incomes of the people will
not be squandered as when under the Ducal
government, not wasted for the pleasure and
dissipation of his Highness the Duke. But
how different was the opinion of the common
people! walked into a bowling-alley, where
the people, instead of enjoying quiet Sunday,
bowled, smoked and were drinking their noble
Rhine wines. After being sure that was no
Prussian, they commenced to talk about pol-
tics, and, to their utter astonishment, could
not resist from laughing right in their faces.
They thought no Catholic religion would be al
lowed by the Prussians, no foreigners would be
permitted to come to the baths of Wiesbaden
or Homburg and all such nonsense at this. l

learning all these things-in the church and

Sentinel gives an account OF a perilous ad-
venture which occurred in Chesterfield, N.
H., on The 18th ult. A boy about five
years Old was missed by his mother and
aunt. After diligent search lie was found
in the well, which was some thirty feet
deep. As there were no neighbors with.
in half aPa,ile, and the men all gone to
town meeting, it devolved upon the two
ladies to rescue the child from its perious
situation. a rope was let down which he
seized, and they succeeded il drawing him
nearly out of the well but when almost
at the top, bis hold gave way and he again
fell to the bottom. He rose 10 the top Of
the water, when his mother, at the risk Of
her own life, descended to his assistance,
aud succeeded in getting him from the
well, not much the worse for the accident.
Courage and perseverance, under such cir
cumstances, are highly commendable.
