MAINE ELECTION. election which
took place in Maine, on Monday, to Sc.
cure the sentiment of the people on the
amendments to the liquor law passed
by the past Legislature, which makes
each offence punishable with imprison-
ment, excited very little interest, as it in
no way invalidated the action of the
Legislature. Only about %, 900 votes were
cast, and from the few returns received
Monday night it is probable that two
thirds of them were for the amendments.
At Augusta the yeas numbered 2l2 and
the nays G5, and at Portland 739 to 302.

NORTHERN New YoRK.-A serious af-
fair occurred in Port Henry, N. Y, last
Thursday, p. m, at about o'clock,
which may prove fatal to one Of the
parties concerned. 1t seems that a man
by the name of John Dwyer was eating
his dinner at the Central House (kept by
an Irishman named Doyle when two
brothers named Hennessy, and one or
two others came in. A quarrel ensued,
and the Hennessys pitched upon Dryer,
who drew his knife and stabbed one of
the brothers, letting out part of bis
bowels, Hennessy's recovery is very
doubtful. Dryer is now under arrest,
and claims thaChe acted in self defence.
Whiskey was at the bottom of this bust
ness.
Last Tuesday evening, as Charles
Weatherhead, of Chester Warren county,
was driving from Fort Edward, in a
buggy, to Sandy Hill, he was waylaid
on Ford Edward hill, by party Of five
or six rufians; who seized the horse by
the head and ordered him tn "stand and
deliver" He applied his whip freely,
whereupon the scoundrels were forced to
relinquish their hold upoa the animal
almost at the same moment the horse
stumbled and fell over some obstruc-
tions evidently placed in the road by the
highwaymen, but he managed to regain
his feet without much difficulty. Mr..
w. fortunately escaped, as his horse was
a good one and made good use Of his
legs on the occasion. On arriving at
Sandy Hill it was ascertained the animal
was somewhat cut about the fore legs,
occasioned by the distractions placed in
the road.
"A man by the name Of Thomas Den
ME attempted to commit suicide Friday
morning about six miles from Port
Henry, N. Y, at what is called Twenty
one Ore Bed, by cutting his throat with
case knife, severing the windpipe. a
physician was called Immediately, his
wound dressed and he will probably re-
cover. No cause is known for the act.

desires an able and faithful Waterman.

pastor May this their desire soon be
resllzed in faithful shepherd going in

A GENERAL HISTORY OF FREE MA

BRENNAN.-This is valuable work to
the masonic fraternity giving history
OF the order in Europe, based upon an
cient documents relating to- and the
monuments erected by the fraternity
from its foundation in the year rs B. c.
to the present time. 1t is work of
great research, and will become authori-
ty, as the historical facts embodied
therein are well calculated to fill
vacuum in Masonic history that is not to
be found in any other work coming
under our notice. Mr.. Charles II. Gran

land county, and will call upon the
fraternity in Rutland during the next
week. We commend the work to

abundance of thrifty elms and naples

our enterprising village In no cheap

Our village fathers have decided to
continue Messenger Street to its inter
section with the lane running west by
the residence Of Mr.. George II. Farrar.
The lane is to be made three rods wide
and called Farrar Street.
Our walks should not be overlooked
this season They are as necessary as
new Streets. Some of them are simp-
ly disgrace to the village, and should
not longer be allowed to remain in
their present ugly and unsafe condi-
ton. More particularly would we call
attention to the walks on North Main
Street. These walks are as much used
rs any in the village, and yet we be-
heve, they are i'll the worst shape.
New wide walks are absolutely necos-
sary, not only for the comfort but for
the safety Of the many pedestrians who
frequent that part of the village. VIII
they not be laid this season?
