THE ADVANCE STEP IN PROGRESS.

THE ADVANCE STEP IN PROGRESS,
There is new element in our canvass
now that causes those who opposed us
to make one more struggle for the as-
tendency, but it is only the logical and
legitimate conclusion of all you have
done before. The right Of the colored
man to suffrage is but the legitimate
and logical deduction from what you
had done before. Is there any man so
blind to what he was doing one year
ago by voting to sustain the Republican
candidates then, that he can be induced
to change his course at this time7

The Portland daily press., 1867-04-19

We have on hand several candid articles
communicated by esteemed friends, ON the
Railroad questions which have absorbed so
much interest of late, besides editorial articles
on the same general subject, but for reasons
which we will state we have thought best to
withhold them for the present.
The reasons are simply as follows: the Di-
rectors of the Portland & Rochester Road and
a number of citizens chosen at the meet
ing on Monday-the latter deeply interested in
the proposed Portland & Ogdensburg Road
are now in conference, and we are assured are
hkeiy to agree upon a proposition to be sub
united to the city which will harmonic both
interests and remove many objections now urg-
ed against the proposed loan. We are not at
liberty to state the general terms of the propo-
sitioD, but we will say this, that if the results
OF the conference do not miscarry. thu citv will
not be asked to make an absolute loan of any
more than enough to complete the ?. &, r.
road to Alfred, which will double the hus;n.so
of that road and bring the heart of York conn
ty near us, and for security the city will have a
bottom mortgage on the whole line. ANY fpr-
ther loan, as well as any loan to any other route
will be so fenced about by conditions that nor
dollar can be used until the city has the most
satisfactory assurance that, by its use, the con.
nections will be secured with the West which
the friends of the different routes propose.
We have thought it best, therefore, till the
proposition is distinctly made to the city, tt
withhold further remarks, that what shall bt
SAID may apply to the new and not to an obso
lete issue. When the new proposition is sub
mitteG, or fails of submission, our columns
shall be opsn to candid discussion of the
whole subject; IL the mean time communica.
tons on hand viii be carefully preserved
Should the new proposition to which we have
limited be made to the city, the pending propo-
sition will of course be withdrawn,

Result, Of the iRIail.ona Conference,


Since the article in another column, headed
Railroad Communications" was in type, the
Directors of the Portland g. Rochester Rail-
road and the committee appointed at the citi-
zens' meeting on Monday, have authorized us
to state that they have agreed to submit to the
voters of Portland the following proposition,
and they will at once petition the Mayor and
Aldermen to issue their warrant for meeting
on the Both inst. to take the vote, to witt g
q The city to grant aid to the Portland & Roch-
ester Railroad to the extent of 100000 upon a
first mortgage security, which will open the
road to Alfred, and $500, 900 more when it shall
be made to appear to the Mayor and Aldermen
that railroad connection has been secured to
the West To the Ogdensburg road the same
amount of aid shall be given, under similar
mortgage upon its road when an adequate
subscription to the capital stock, in the opinion
of the Mayor and Aldermen, shall have been
made, and satisfact DRY evidence shall have been
New Hampshire and Vermont have been COM
menced and will be completed, making a
through line to the great lakes; but in no case
shall any bonds be issued for the use of this
road within one year.
Thus only 100000 of aid is to be granted,
unless. ---t

burg road until it becomes certain that at the
western line of the State it will be met by a
road whose connections extend directly to Og-

N. Y, on the N. Y. Central Railroad. "
It's not believed that a plan so carefully
considered and well secured as this, and which
promises and assures such vast results to our
city, can encounter any considerable opposi-
ton. We hope to see the vote unanimous

CIRCULAR.
The New England Commissioners of River
Fisheries wish to bespeak the attention and
the assistance of all persons who are interest
ed in the restocking of our fresh waters with
valuable fish, such as the salmon, shad, her
ring, alewife, trout, black bass, and lamprey
eel. 81 vi hre t.fL.tH
These fish, half century ago, furnished
abundant and wholesome food to the people;
but, by the erection of impossible dams, the
needless pollution of ponds and rivers, and by
reckless fishing, in all ways and at all times,
our streams and lakes have been pretty much
depopulated. ai-I '-ratt -ta ..r.r.-
Luckily, the immense natural increase Of
fishes opens way to their restoration. We
have only to remove the causes OF their de-
struction and they will multiply enormously,
without any care at all
The causes of destruction are chiefly as fol-
lows: N Fl
l. Impossible dams. Over these, fish-wayS
may be built with little waste of water
2. Pollution of water by lime, dyes, soap,
sawdust, and other mill refuse. Much of all
these should not be thrown at all into the wa
ter. As to the dirty water from wool or cloth
washing, it may be confined to one side of the
river by plank screen placed opposite the
race-way. .l-h Ees agla
) 8. Destruction of young fish by mill wheels
which may be avoided by lattice placed
across the mouth of the mill canal.
4. Destructive modes of fishing, among
which we may include gill-nets, weirs, very
long seines, &c.
g. Fishing too much and at wrong seasons
For migratory fish, certain days in each week
should be ''closed, that is to say, no fishing
should then be allowed; and the taking OF
trout on their spawning beds should be rigor-
ously interdicted. 'tf
Massachusetts and New Hampshire have al
ready passed laws for the opening of the Mer-
rimack and the Connecticut to sea fish, and
for the encouragement of the breeding OF val
liable fish. Fishways have been erected upon
the Merrimack, and many thousand salmon
eggs have been planted in its upper waters. p
By the interest and the assistance of the
people at large, these cheap and important re-
forms may be carried through. Is

twelfth and closing lecture of this course will
be delivered in State street Church this eve

Mr.. Tyler is spoken very highly of by the press,
both in this country and England. We clip
the following from the New Bedford Mercury
of January 10TH
"The lecture of Moses Colt Tyler, Esq, be-
fore the Lyceum last evening, upon England,
her greatness and her littleness, was a very
happy effort Mr. Tyler, who spoke without
notes, and without, to some speakers, the in
dispensable accessory of desk, is an easy and
graceful speaker, rhetorical and yet entirely
natural. His style is simple and flowing, Ian
guage select and opposite, and his address, al
ways pleasing, was occasionally marked by
passages OF genuine eloquence and beauty
For the last three years resident in England,
with ample opportunities of observation and
study of her people and their institutions, he
gathered rich material for his lecture, espec-
tally for the illustration of the points he made,
by startling and amusing conversation and in

Vermont and Portland.


Our city merchants will not overlook the
fact that by the proposed road to Ogdensburg,
the northerly half of Vermont will be brought
nearer to Portland than it is to Boston, by an
average distance of Is miles. This must secure
a very large trade from that State to our city.
We have been permitted to read letter from
Montpelier, of a recent date, and from one of
the first citizens of Vermont, in which the
writer says: 81 have promised myself for some
time, and indeed others, also, to write to you in
regard to railway communication between Yer
mont and Portland, direct, as means of Civ
ing us competing market with Boston, and
Portland a chance for Vermont trade Port
land is nearer to Montpelier than is Boston,
and, therefore, nearer also to all the trade north
and west of Montpelier that comes to Mont
pelier by railroad or otherwise. By railroad
you may count all the immense business of the
Vermont Central from the north and west
Now, we of Central Vermont are interested in

weeks the matter has been actively ag1uaueu.

FIRE AT Observation-Disclosures after
noon the skate and chisel factory at Skovhegan
owned by Messrs. G. A Williams & Co, was de-
stroyed by fire. A portion of the stock and
tools was saved in damaged condition. The
loss is estimated at from 900 to $780, on
which there was insurance for $4,000
The fire was caused by a singular crenm-
stance One of the employees wishingto in
sert large faucet in the alcohol barrel-'he ar
ticle being used for polishing purposes nnder-
took to enlarge the hole by roaming it out with
a red hot iron! The barrel contained two or
three gallons of alcohol and an explosion i'm
mediately ensued, by which three of tlefemale
operatives were injured from their dresses TAX
ing fire, one of them very seriously, aad the
building was set on fire. By this disaster from
seventy-five to one hundred hands are thrown
out of employment. But, we understand, the
factory will be rebuilt Immediately, and the
recent contract made for the delivery d $4,000
pairs of skates next season will be fulfilled.
One of the employees left his coat hanging
up in the building. In the pocket was wal
let containing $50. After the fire the coat was
found among the rubbish burned to cinders,

Late English papers detail the proceedings
of the examination of the Ex-Governor of
Jamaica, before the Board of Mag
istrates at Market-Drayton, which was con-
cluded on the 10Th ult. Eyre's counsel spoke for
seven hours and concluded thus 81 ask you
to dismiss at once this most scandalous and
unfounded charge, for I should be sorry, in
deed, for his sake, that it could be supposed,
even for an hour, that his fellow countrymen
sitting judicially in any court could say that
there was prima facie case of murder, defin-
ed as it has been by nv learned friend, and ac-
guessed in by Mr.. Eyre. I ask You with your
authority to interpose and stopit. say it is a
most malignant and mean conspiracy to pros
titute the forms of law, and ask you to save
the administration of justice from the scandal
of so foul result" When the magistrate di-
rected the discharge of the prisoner the an
nouncement was received with vociferous
cheers yEGE 2 "a
The Times, as a matter of course, applauds
the decision of the magistrates. The Daily
Ne,os says:
"The prosecutors of Mr.. Eyre are no doubt
prepared for the issue to which matters have
come. No one can have watched the manlfes-
tations Of opinion among the class in whose
prejudices Mr.. Eyre has taken refuge from the
ordinary tribunals of the country without re-
cognizing the probability that at some period
trates or as grand jurors, to prevent the judi
cial inquiry from which their client shrink IS
The course to be adopted by the prosecution in
the contingency which has now become actual
has doubtless been considered. 1t would be in
convenient if it were possible, to adopt the cir
cuitous legal processes which would be neces-
sary to bring MI. Eyre to London-whither n. ne
will never voluntarily come-to answer the
charge against him. But he can be indicted
under the Colonial Governors act, not indeed
for murder, but for the misdemeanor OF insti,
eating to the commission of murder, and tried
in London on that charge. The Jamaica Com.
mittee have the best legal advice, and will
doubtless be guided by it. One thing is GER
tain, that while the course of Justice may be
delayed by the articles to which Mr.. Eyre and
his friends have had recourse, it will be impos-
sible for him to escape in one form or another
the investigation which he shuns, and which it
might have been more polite, and wonld GER
tainly have been manly, to have confronted on
the first indication of the challenge" s.
