Employment for Women.
To the Editor Of the Press:

Your correspondent, "Traxi,. often
writes commencing, in very proper way,
the different industrial and manufacturing in
terests of our State, more especially those es
tablished and fostered by individual enterprize
and effort. He also manilests an intelligent
interest in the domestic labors and productions
of all our communities and is doing good ser
vicen prompting families to furnish them
selves with facilities for manufacturing cloth
and other articles in their own houses, thereby
securing profitable employment for their
daughters at home. But, as many must and
others will leave the paternal home for other
places of labor and abode, ''Traxi" will add
70 MS usefulness by informing us of good, safe
piaces Where the services of the better class of
yoo"s iauies are wanted and well paid without
so"s 'n'o inge crowded factories, or wander
in5 ovei 'ne iand to find opportunities "to
teach 10 labor is as honorable 40 $50
teach" The propretors of GOOD safa ,,,oooa
Of employment do not advertise for helm
will assist "TraxP by informing of one place
where any young woman who is so fortunate
as to secure situation will find home. If
is at the establishment of Mr.. Chas. F. HATH
away, Waterville, Me-, for the manufacture of
mems under fclothing-shirts, bcsoms and col
lars. Waterille is highly favored place,
having all the privileges of the best New Eng
land society, meetings, schools, lectures, and
more amusements and shows than are profit
able. Mr.. Hathaway's establishment consists
of very large brick building with outbuid-
ings and well ornamented grounds, combin-
ing the appearance of an industrial establish
ment and neat private residence, as it really
is, for the proprietors family resides in rooms
fitted up for that purpose in part of the
building, making it easy for all the employees
to enjoy maternal care and watchfulnAss with
out apparent effort. The rooms are con-
structed to secure utility and comfort, and al
ways have the appearance Of perfect neatness
not emitting a small vestry or Sabbath
school room, well furnished Every attach
ment and fixture is arranged with such taste
and neatness as to interest and excite an am
biti0n to excel in the business in which The
occupants are employed; all rejecting the
character of the man at the head, and indi-
eating the quality and beauty Of the goods
that 60 out to all parts of our land. All deal
ers in first class ready made clothing know of
"Hathaway's Shirts" and his establishment
is an institution" of which his neighbors
may well be proud. TRAxI's FRIEND.

1t seems as though portion of the newspa-
per press thinks it no wrong to utter the most
malignant and false accusations against Gen.
Butler, because he happens at the present
time to be making some unpleasant dis
closures Even deeds for which he has previ-
ously been praised, and which should commend
him to the American people, are now seized
upon as the occasion of dealing heavy blows
at his head Here is case in point, not from
an open Copperhead journal, but from paper
that pretends to fly the Republican flag:
Gen. Butler is a man who stabs in the dark.
In the war he hung one man. who was unarm-
ed, defenceless and wholly in his power, with
out trial OF semblance OF one. apt H
New Orleans had been wrested from rebel
rule by the fleet of Farragut, end Gen. Butler
had commenced the occupancy with land
forces. The rebel flags had been stricken and
the stars and stripes had been erected On the
U. S. Branch Mint building this victorious en-
blem of a nations power had been raised. 1t
was sacred emblem in the eyes of all loyal,
Union-loving men; it symbolized freedom, and
promised protection to all who would obey the
law. That flag had been replaced there at
great cost. Valuable lives had fallen that it
might wave in the breezes of that latitude
1t was such flag, erected under such circum-
stances, and symbolizing such glorious facts,
that rebels and traitors looked upon with evil
eyes, and one of them-Mumford-had the
hardihOod to tear it dozen. For this act he was
tried by drum head courtmartal, and the
verdict being approved by the Commanding
General he was promptly executed by hang
ing. By this act rebels learned a lesson; that
the flag was sacred; that its folds could not be
trailed in the dust with impunity, and that
henceforth the power it represented must be
respected ...- ts..
Gen. Dix long time before, while at the
head of the Treasury Department, had given
orders to shoot on the spot any one found tear
ing down the U. S. flag. General Butler act
ed in the spirit of this order, and his action
doubtless prevented many rebel insults and
| acts of violence, and did much to promote the
cause cf good order in a city but just wrested
from rebel control and even then filled with
rebels who were secretly gnashing their teeth
in rage at the authority to which they were
forced to submit .l ....... t.-....-.
We submit if it is not mean, dastardly and
fagitious to throw this act of prompt pun
ishment of treason and insult in the face of the
only man in the United States who has pun
ished the crime of treason with the penalty
which the law attaches to the offence? 1t
would be mean in copperhead paper to do this;
in Republican paper it is fiagitious.

The name on the title page of this book is
one dear and familiar to many, though she
who once bore it no longer responds to it on
earth. To those who once knew her ls VIII
come as a welcome message from the pure
heart and earnest mind of her who is no" at
rest from her labors. To many others, IT'S
faithful spirit, its simple and practical teach
ings, will make it a help and comfort, a source
OF strength and wisdom for the overcoming
conflicts, the ever-opposing foes of life.
great deal of patient labor has been expended
upon the book; it is rich with the experience
of an earnest, tender, spiritual life We learn
from the preface that it was written at inter-
walls during space OF four years and kept by
its author for revision and improvement from
time to time but her brief and beautiful life
closed before she was ready to give to the
world the work she had prepared with such a
fervent spirit. The affectionate remembrance
in which she is held, added to its own intrinsic
merits, will commend the book to a large cir
Gle of thoughtful and appreciativs readers.
