The SUFFERERs AT PoRTLAND.-A let
ter from leading citizen Of Portland,
one of the committee to distribute the
relief funds from other places, written to
New York friend, says:
do not think there is any danger of
Portland receiving too much aid. You
must not measure our disaster by what
you can see in our desolate streets, three
hundred and twenty acres of blasted
ruins forest of shade trees in ashes
thousands crowded into tents, attics,
cellars ragged and ClamorOus beggars.
besieging every door. These are what the
casual visitor observes, and from which
he estimates the extent of our calamity
The real evil is deeper still. It is the
impoverishment of respectable families,
until last week settled in their own
homes, possessing their own household
goods, each established in some little
trade or handicraft that kept them in
comfort if not in luxury. Now, house,
furniture, shops stores, tools are gone,
and it is most likely that if any insur-
ance nominally protected them against
loss, they hold policy in our own local
companies, whose payments will only
run from II to 40 per cent of their poll
cies. Some of your friends and mine are
under this distress. l see every day
delicately nurtured women and high
spirited men seek the comfort of some of
US in the committee room of our houses,
and with tears more of shame than sOr-
row, beg for few yards OF cloth or q
loaf OF bread, shelter in a tent or free
pass to some other town. | tell you it
is hard to face some of mans best
friends appealing thus, and yet we do il
every hour. An immense number of our
Oldest and NEST excellent families are
adrift. Everything save life, the asso-
Citations and accumulations of perhaps
half century, vanishing in single
hour of that appalling night.

banks have caved on both sides till the
waters nearly meet.
The Terrapin Neck cutoff, thirty-fve
miles above Vicksburg, was made this
season. 1t is eighteen miles round the
bend 1t is now still lake where the
channel of the river was last year. These
three cut.offs will shorten the river at
least seventy.tlve miles,
Week before last rapid rise Of the
Arkansas river threw out into the Mis-
sissippi river flood of water so red as
to create the utmost establishment in the
minds of all who saw it. 1t ran a few
days in this way, and then suddenly
changed its color. As it mingled with
the waters of the Mississippi 1T looked
like red paint. The superstitious say it
is sign of much sickness.

FIRE,-There was an alarm of fire in
Bellows Falls on Sunday morning at
half-past three O'Clock. The night ex-
press came in at that time and found the
Rutland bridge at the head OF the canal
on fire. 1t was soon extinguished, and
not much damage done. The fire proba-
bly, took from the engine of the ten
o'clock express train up the night be-
fore.

waters edge, within two hundred feet
of the foot of the falls, you are right In
the middle of the mist, and wet through
in an instant. 1t is here that, by look
ing up, the enormous attitude of the fall
can be realized, and the first feeling is
one of self preservation, an involuntary
drawing back, for the whole mass seems
ready TO drop and crush you where you
stand. Never can the weird beauty of
this scene be forgotten by beholders.-
Rainbows of thousand hues seem TO
surround you, andltheir irises to arch you
in the skies.
The white foaming waters form bril-
liant back ground to the magic prisms
pictured by the spray. The dark frown-

jumpers, make II titung frame for this

The Sprinfeld Republican says that
"Mrs. Orchard, a literary lady of YER
mont impelled to the task by circum-
stances which make it very honorable to
her, has undertaken to procure sub
scribers to a volume of poems, written
amid household cares and family sor-
rows, and informed with all those strug-
giles of heart and brain which will COM
mend them to the common heart of hui
manity. Simple, unambtious musical
in rythm and rhyme, the poems in this
volume recommend themselves to all,
while the enterprise of the woman gives
Il strong claim to the popular sympa-
thy" The Republican is glad to know
that she is finding much encouragement
in Springfield and vicinity.

IMPORTANT CHANGES IN THE MISSISSIPPI
RIvBR.-From Southern sources we
learn that the breach in Grand Levee on
the Mississippi river is so deep that the
chief engineer thinks the new levee will
have to be built some distance in the
rear Of the old one, and must be at least
thirty feet high. The breach is mile
wide.
The Mississippi is this year making
several cut offs above, which may next
year seriously affect the levees below.
Twenty-Five miles below Vieksburg,
at Davis Bend, there is cutoff. The
distance is twenty eight miles around
the bend and one mile across. The wa
ter has been running through the cutoff
for four weeks. Six steamers can run
down it abreast, and the current is so
rapid that no steamer can go up through
it. 1t is very deep.
At Palmyra Bend, short distance
from Natchez, there is another cutoff,

DEMOCRATIC ABUSE OF GEN. GRANT,
The La Crosse Democrat, one of the
leading democratic papers Of the North
West, says:
We shall expect to hear presently that
Grant has started negro harem, he ex-
hibits such partial fondness "for the
colored folks.' 1t has been said that
negroes cannot be raised to an equality
with the whites, but we do not think
they would have to be elevated much to
be the equal of Grant. He has taken
such pains to lower and disgrace him
self Of late, that the result would be
easily accomplished, If it is not already,
The same paper of course, eulogizes
Davis as pure statesman and suffer-
ing patriot, and goes in for the Philadel-
phia convention.

POSTMASTER DENNIsoN ON HIS REsIGNA-
TIoE.-A Washington dispatch says that
Postmaster Dennison is daily in receipt
Of large numbers of letters congratulate
ing him upon his withdrawal from the
cabinet. In answer to one, regretting
that he had not resigned earlier, Mr..
Dennisol says -
Possibly it would have been better FOR
me personally to have resigned some
months ago; but my sense Of duty to
our party and the country would not
permit me to do so. While almost GER
tain for several months past that |
could not long remain in the cabinet be-
cause of the differences of opinion or
public questions between the President
and myself | determined, in view Of all
the circumstances surrounding the po-
litical situation, not to withdraw as
long as there was a ray of hope for con-
Citation between the President and our
friends in Congress. Not until the Pres
ident's opposition to the constitutional
amendment and his approval of the Phil
adelphia convention were manifest that
did feel that all hope Of Cancellation
was gone. Then acted promptly, and
would have resigned, as l have, if l had
known that l was to leave alone.

right time and in the right spirit, what
ever may be the consequences to me per-
sonally. have done my whole duty to
our party and the country, and return

ment has been as successful as | could
reasonably expect, and am content.
