Aid to Southern Planters from baltimore
Meeting aa tho Corn Exchange. -.

Meeting aA tho Corn Exchange.
The Baltimore Gazette, Of Tuesday, has the fol-
lowing: ssNumerous letters from parties Of high
responsibility and standing in South Carolina have
recently been received in this city, making most
earnest appeals for aid to enable them to sustain
their labor during the ensuing year-the material
assistance thus furnished to be reimbursed out Of
the proceeds Of the next crop. In some sections
of that State their corn and cotton crops have
proved during the past season almost a total fail
ure, and the planters are entirely destitute Of the
means of working. They want facilities for procu-
ring from us corn and bacon. They offer the most
liberal inducements to capitalists furnishing them,
and are willing to secure the repayment Of such
advances by mortgaging their lands and giving
liens on their crops. MIR. GEORGE W. LEE, Of the
house of GRAEsEn, LEE, SMITH & Co., Charleston,
is now in our city, prepared to give any inforna-
ton in reference to this matter. We understand
that a meeting for the purpose of interesting our
merchants and capitalists, and with the view OF
procuring the aid sought for, will be convened at
the Corn and Flour Exchange to-day, at ten o'clock

A correspondent at Buckfield writes that in
that town and vicinity the snow in the woods
is now some three feet deep and solid at that
and vet the music of the robins and bluebirds
is heard! "The blue jays have been about all
winter, and what they have fed on Heaven. on
ly knows. But He who hears the ravens when
they cry, has provided for them, and their mu-
steal voices have cheered the dreariness OF the
past winter. f ocks of snowbrds, cheerful
and happy have often visited the front yards
of the jewellers and enlivened the cold winter
DAYS by their presence. They seem to be most
cheerful in snow storms, and like the petrels at
sea, they delight in the war of the elements.
Buckfield and vicinity are great on dried APP
pies. Last autumn thousands of hands must
have been very busy in "paring, coring and
stringing," for the merchants in this village
have taken in" two hundred tons during the
past winter and sent them to market! That
is quite a Pile, and must have cost much in
dustry to produce it. Hundreds upon hun
dreds of barrels of apples Of the best grated
fruit, have also been sent from this place.
The Buckfield railroad is very great con.
yenience to the farmers in this region. 1t is

PORTLAND THEATRE.-The management at
this establishment seem determined to win the
appreciation of all lovers of the drama, by the
magnificent manner in which pieces are placed
upon the stage, surprising by far all former
efforts of past caterers for public favor. Last
night the second performance of Still Waters
Run Deep was given to large and highly ap-
preciative audience. We cannot suggest an
improvements in the selection of parts, so SUI
perbly are all enacted. Where all do well it is
unnecessary to individualize, and yet we can
not torbear mention of the two leading char
acters, Mr.. John Mildmay and Capt Hawks

and Ogden. ..t.e,7, h s..,.sr...-..
q Mrs. Wildman made quite an impression by
her exquisite singing between the pieces The
prompter's place is most admirably filled by
Mr.. Frank Barry, and, although we mean it as
no detriment to his qualities, it is agreeable to
miss that smothered soto voce, which SO fire.

This of course is due to the perfect manner in
which all the members acquit themselves But
few are aware how much they owe to prompt
er the even and smooth progression of play;
out seldom seen, his presence is always felt,
and we congratulate the management on their
good taste in the selection they have made. 3c.
Tonight the performance will consist of
Married Life and Handy Andy, feast of en-
ioyment which should satisfy the most fastidi-
Gus critic Tomorrow the long promised Lone

To tie Editor Of the Press: - +"
regret exceedingly the communication in
your paper of Tuesday relating,to the Acade-
my at Yarmouth. Were the facts as stated, q
thoughtful man would have paused to ask,
what good is to be gained by the publication Of
statements so derogatory to the honor of his
town and what must be its influence on the
instructors and scholars of the Institution
there are near a hundred scholars, now in the
midst of the work of % term. Ita fsaa
know not and have no wish to know the
name of the writer. HIS intentions may have
been good-his information surely is imperfect
1t is presumed he cannot have long been in the
vicinity of the Academy, and SO is not familiar
with IFS history. Had he been at the pains,
any school-day of late, even to visit the school,
he would have found it, in the number and
character of its attendants, and in the fidelity
thoroughness and success of the instructions
impaired, comparing iavoring with what is
witnessed in other similar institutions.
The Yarmouth Academy urgently needs en-
dowment 1t never possessed funds in
amount much be ond the cost of necessary
buildings. The Trustees have not been prodi-
gal, but in a marked degree careful. The prin-'
cipal outlays We're made in the past good times
to which approving reference is made by the
writer. They were not rasbly nor unwisely
made. The buildings erected, comedy and
substantial but in no sense extravaganza, were
1rer tsary when built, and are equally necessa-
ry now.
mat chey might spare the public fund, and
yet secure fit accommodations, Trustees, with
9th + friends, gave largely from their own pri-
waite resources; and individuals of them have
in bright and in dark times cared and watched
and toled, to an extent which few know, or
would appreciate, if told i7l
I cannot think that our people are about to
withdraw their love from their Academy /
hope our strong ctezens will be liberal in
making it strong; and as the State has done
much more for nearly every other Academy
within its limits, of equal age standing and
usefulness, / trust, when in condition to do
such things, legislators will regard favorably
its claims to a share in their benefcence.g O.
Nothing should be suffered to withstand the
prosperity of common schools. The Academy
is not in the way of plans for the perfection OF
these 1t might greatly assist and become in
corporated with, measures for their elevation
That it may be useful in this direction, OF in
others, care should be had for its reputation.
