The attention Of thepublic is invited to Hasheesh
Candy, which is recommended to them as the best
medicine known for the cure OF all diseases of the
Throat, Lungs and Nervous System. The proprie-
tors, in thus offering it, feel confident that trial will
fully sustain the high reputation it has already ac-
quired in various parts ofthe United States To those
who always let their prejudices blind their Judgment
it is useless to present facts arguments but to 9TH
feel that it will be sufficient to say that we offer
no new discovery experiment; goods are stand
ard. In the East, Hasheesh is the beginning and
the end Of Medicine; it is used for numberless dis
eases, and that 1t is used with we need only
refer readers to the unlimited testimony of tray

HORRIBLE CASE OF INFANrIcDE.-Sun-
day morning three lads who were stroning
near the end of Portland bridge, on the Cape
Elizabeth side, discovered the body of male
infant which had been wrapped up in what
appeared to be portion Of a night dress, and
thrown into the water. The infant was, APP
parently, two or three weeks old, and had not
been in the water over twenty-four hours.
Coroner Gould was Immediately called
Upon examining the body closely, he found
the throat of the infant cut from ear to ear,
and that it had then been thrown overboard.-
The Coroner made all the enquiries possible,
but could gather no information upon the
matter and he did not deem it necessary to
hold an inquest. 1t is to be hoped that the
unnatural monster who committed the deed,
may yet be discovered.
The Coroner took charge of the body to
give it proper burial raI

New England Soldiers. Relief Associate

New England Soldiers Relief Association.
We have received from Colonel FRANK E.
HOWE, Superintendent of the Association, a
report submitted at the final meeting, on the
18th February. The Association was organiz-
ed the 9th April, 1852, by sons of New Eng
land, resident in New York, who felt that some
provision should be made for the relief of the
sick and wounded soldiers continually arriving
at the American Metropolis. The whole num-
Der of soldiers who have been lodged fed, cloth
ed, or otherwise aided during the four years
is S6,O73, belonging to almost every Northern
State, though naturally the greater part is
from New England. From Maine alone, H.
$50 names were registered. Not merely as
resting place for the soldier, but as a bureau
OF Information for the anxious people at home
Tue association has rendered invaluable ser
vice.
Inc last wounded soldier has now been dis
charged, and the hospital is closed. Tn the
resolution oil thanks to Col Howe, for his pat
riotic and humane devotion to the ;n,orosts Of
the soldiers, there are thousands of our far,o,,,
citizens who viii concur with the Association.
The closing words of his report are worthy of
the man. "The work of humanity.n he saw.
so well begun and carried on, is not fully com
pleted until every crippled and disabled SOL
dier shall have been adequately and tenderly
cared for, and until every helpless, widowed
heart that has laid its dearest offering upon
the altar of our country, shall have received
such consolation and such relief as it is in the
power OF grateful people to bestow."

NEW YORK, April T.
Port au Prince was visited by a destructive
fire on the 10th ult. The city was built prin-
cipally Of wooden buildings, one thousand OF

persons rendered houseless. The fire, from
meagre accounts, appears TO have been con-
fined TO the residences.
Among the merchants burned out are the
following: Delrosse, Dutton & Co, Horelle,
Goldenburg q Co., White, Hartman d CO..
and Noting, Purgold q Co. The brick halls
(safes, of Horelle. Goldenburg & Co, Defy q
Co, G.. Raester q Co, Delrosse, button 4 Co,
and p. Valley, were entirely destroyed, though
some others were saved Business has almost
entirely ceased. .l.. .-'-'

FRENCH LANGUAGE.-Prof. Henri Ducom
having observed that the pupils who commence
the study of French when sixteen or older,
very seldom acquire great fuency in speak
ing, has decided and commenced to make an
experiment which promises to be a success
He has for the first time undertaken a class of
little girls, eight in number, from to Is years
old. He will teach them orally, until they
have thoroughly acquired the French sounds.
Seeing that class doing so finely, and TO COM
ply with the many applications of parents in
past years, the Professor will form another
class of children, to be held on Wednesday
and Saturday afternoons.
The parents before sending their children
must bear in mind that three or four years at
least, will be necessary to have them to speak
like French children; if they expect an imme-
date result, they had better not send them
Some parents seem very anxious to improve
the opportunity, but they fear that the teacher
may leave the place before the complete course
has been carried out thoroughly. No danger
of his leaving. The Professor has been al
ready seven years in Portland. 1t has required
as much to prove himself an able and trust
worthy teacher, and now he has made up his
mind not to leave even ifhe had to wait seven
years longer, before he is acknowledged as a
man of sterling integrity, as the honest man
par excellence; and if a man could be found
in town or anywhere, who could say he has
been wronged by him to the value even of a
cent, the Professor would already have put
oceans between that man and himself Appli-
cations for the children's class may be made
every day this week from noon till two o'clock.

THE FISHING Bus1Srss-Tbe c,ouceste

The FISHING BUsINEss.-The Gloucester
Telegraph of Saturday says dozen sail of YES
sells arrived at that port Friday from Georges,
and the arrivals will be quite brisk for some
time to come. About two hundred and forty
trips of fish have been landed so far this sea-
son, which leaves quite a stock on hand, as the
demand has been light until quite recently.
Prices are looking up little, however, with
fair demand, and the stock will be disposed of
as fast as it is properly cured for market. Hal
ibut finds ready sale, but the quantity brought
is not large. The last sales. of Georges Cod
were at $3.50 per qtl., as reported in our Fish
Market of Wednesday, and the market is firm
at this quotation.

The Harm of Flowers.


A Harp composed of exquisite flowers was
laid upon the funeral casket of the late DIR.
Charles W. Thomas fitting emblem for one
whose soul was filled with harmony, but whose
earthly music is now forever hushed. ASH
looked on this beautiful symbol, THE HARP OF
FLOWERS, there came to my listening ear,
sweeter melody than was ever heard upon
earth, and the thought came to mind-he has
only exchanged his earthly music for the
Heavenly-laid down his violin, to strike the
Golden Harp in Heaven. He has died in the
spring time, our beautiful Easter season when
everything in nature is bursting forth into
new life and beauty, meet emblem of the res
direction of our blessed Lord and Saviour.
and we trust his spirit has flown to the land
Of fadeless flowers. and where everlasting
springs abides.
Thus win we think of him in the Heavenly bowers,
win the sweet wreath and harp OF fragrant
flowers
mat changed to gold within his angel hand.
NOW that he's reached the bright and better land
The white camelia fades not rom his breast.
Nor from his face the smile Of one that. blest.
The white rose wreath 10 him ON earth was eiyen.
He wearsit now around his brow in Heaven.
Thus will we think Of him In the land Of love;
Twas God who called him to His home above,
And with his sal nted mother TO rejoice.
A sweet seraphic chorus for bis voice;
His angel friends are all around him bending.
Up 10 the throne their Hslelujah's sending.
Then rest In pesoe-Saviour his soul receive
Long i'm our hearts shall his dear memory live,
Now he Is free from EARTHLY pain and sorrow
And Heaven receives him ON our Easter morrow.
