In the construction of theatre in this city
care should be taken that it should be of such
a size as IS particularly adapted for the present
wants of Portland, neither too large or too
small. We do not require an immense build
ing capable of seating twenty-five hundred or
three thousand persons, and of SO large an area
that an individual sitting on one side of the
parquet can with difficulty recognize friend
on the other side with the aid of an opera
glass. Such theatre will come all in good
time, when the Ogdensburg and Rutland rail-
roads are finished, and when Portland has be-
come one of the most important watering
places on this continent. What we do need is
a small, cosy, well-ventilated, well furnished
opera-house in which particular attention has
been paid to its acoustic qualities, and which
is capable of seating from twelve hundred to
fifteen hundred people. a.-- . ...
The proper site for the ediice should be as
near the centre of the city as possible, be-
tween Temple and Oak STREETS Our own ia
vorite location is where Clay and Raymond's
stable now stands. By choosing that lot a
very plain structure could be erected to which
there would be three separate entrances. One
on Market Square, one on Centre street, and
very quiet box entrance on Free street. An
oener' almost equally as good would be the
lou on which Libby and BOWS stable stands,
WHICH mas also the advantage eff entrances
from congress. Brown, and Casco streets. In
any case care should be taken to select spot
where the theatre can stand back from the
street, and consequently be constructed in the
plainest manner, so that the most of the mon
ey can be spent on the interior. The arcbi-
tect employed should be one who has already
constructed theatre, otherwise the stock
holders will have to pay for his experiments, no
matter how well ntentioned they may have
been. The entrances should be direct from the
street into the house, (no mounting OF steps to
get INTO the parquet) so that in case of fire or
acoiaent the building could be emptied of spec
ta'ors In less than five minutes. There should
be SIMPLY orchestra stalls, parquet, dress

We learn from the "Oracle," published by
the students of Colby University, that Gen.
B. F. Butler has given $50 to the library fund
of the literary societies of that institution.
1t is said that estimates based upon the re-
turns of names of State Representatives and
Senators elect made by the state Alliance of
Massachusetts, show that there are thirty pro-
hibition Senators, and that it is quite sure that
two-thirds of the members of the House are
on the same side.

The various estimates for such an opera
house range from twenty-eight to eighty.six
thousand dollars-without the land. We are
acquainted with an architect (who drew the
plans for the Olympic Theatre and Hippothe-
atron in New York; who will agree to con-
tract for twenty-eighr thousand dollars, and
build pretty, comfortable theatre, and fur
nish neat set of scenery. Another asks for
ty thousand dollars, another sixty, another
seventy-fve and still another eighty six
These are few principal matters TO be
looked at closely i'll the construction of an op-
era house, and which we respectfully submit
to all interested. But in the mean time what
shall we do for theatre? Will Mr.. Booth or
other parties who may be willing to give us
S0od dramatlc performances, succeed In rent
ing Deering Hall, or shall we be compelled to
forego any such delightful representations of
the legitimate drama as was afforded us last
week by Mrs Lander, because the rent of the
hall is too high to attempt to bring good
company here without losing money, Let us
hope that some arrangement may be made
that shall prove satisfactory, and then with
Deering Hall well-warmed, well-carpeted and
some new scenery to replace the old Gob(e )lin
tapestry that has been shaking over the stage

instance. Every drop of this valuable compound is
mixed by DR. Tobias himself, therefore can always be
relied upon. 1t is warranted superior to any other

Headache, Sore Throat, Vomiting, Frosted Feet,
Mumps, Crodp, Burns, Cuts, Sea Sickness. Insect

in the 'World'' that stands its own merits
than the "Venetian Liniment." Thousands of GER
tcates can be at the Doctors office, attesting
to its rare virtues. The great sale for Dr. Tobias

pied persons to counterfeit this Valuable Remedy;
purchasers cannot be too careful to see that "Ijr

An interesting discussion has been carried
on for some time past in the Boston papers
and some of our local contemporaries on the
question of the present, condition of the At
lantic & st. Lawrence section of the Grand
this newspaper writing and agitation was an
accident which happened upon the road in Jul
ly last, near South Paris, from broken rail,
an accident which might have happened on
any railway in the eountry-and which in this
case was not attended with any loss of life, or
serious injury. gags i
1t is well known that the Atlantic company
did very large business during the whole of
the summer and autumn, and the opposition
and competing routes seized upon the accounts
given of this accident and of the state of the
track generally, by writer in a Boston paper,
to circulate the most damaging statements
they could with view to divert some portion
of this large traffic to themselves. But these
enemies OF the company, and of the city. and
we may say of the State, have not stopped
here, but actually desire to stop the working of
the railway-stop one of the main business
feeders of the city, a railway which everybody
knows, who has occasion to travel upon it, is
in its material aspects in better condition now
than it has been for eight or ten years past.
We do not criticise the conduct of the Railroad
Commissioners, but we ask our citizens for
one moment to consider the probable effect of
closing this railroad, if only for one week at
this season when arrangements are about to
be made for the winter traffic by the Atlantic
Steamers. 1t is only two winters ago that the
owners of these steamers threatened to with
draw from Portland and transfer their line to
New York. The mere cry which has been
raised by the enemies of the road as to its safe
ty, cannot but have its effect upon the passen-
ger traffic by these steamers, and will very
likely raise the question of their withdrawal
from Portland.
We have leaned since we wrote the above
that the proprietors of the Ocean Steamers
have, in consequence of this agitation, actually
had under consideration the subject of running
their vessels to Boston OF New York in future,
while at the same time they acknowledge that
the Grand Trunk company's arrangements are
satisfactory to them in every respect,

IT is possible that we have not yet heard the
last of the SIS Booth Alive" controversy. As
there are many good old Democrats who sup
pose jackson to be still alive in perennial
youth, as the Jacobites looked for the return
of Stuarts that were long since dead, as the
Romans watched for the coming of Romulus
in glorified form, so there is now and then a
stray Copperhead who looks to see Booth
come back from Orcus to repeat the Ford's
Theatre tragedy, with Grant for victim. Of
such person a correspondent writes.from
York county. He says:
Gan you inform me where L can obtain a
good card photograph of Booth? ! recently
nearu Vi man who is very DESTROYS of obtain
ing one. He considers Booth the greatest
hgiInng man OF the nineteenth century. T saw
considers, because he still insists that Booth Is
not dead, claiming that the wrong man was
killed, and has no doubt that if Grant is elect
ed, he will perform another great exploit by
assassinating him. A few DAYS ago he was
holding forth" to his boarders, for he is pro-
prietor of clearinghouse "who were of one
accord in one place" about the merits of Booth.
During the CONVEX sation, one of his boarders
said ne had photograph of Booth, and he
wouldnt take live hundred dollars for it. An
other boarder, bearing the same name as the
first speaker, said he did not have one, but had
no doubt if he was possessor of one. he should
prize it as highly as any one would The nro.
prietor then made the following remark :"Wel
haven't got one, but if l had 1 wouldn't sell
it for any price whatever, for he done all the
htin' there was done durin the war, that
amounted to any thin"

How WE WERE DEFEATED IN New YORK
1t is not surprising that the Republicans of
New York have concluded to contest the cleo
ton of Hoffman. All accounts agree that the
frauds perpetrated by the Democracy in New
York city and vicinity were of unparalleled
atrocity. The Commercial Advertiser says:
1t is not only worthless, we are sorry to say,
but rotten. Take for instance the Sixth Ward,
5,651 names were registered-the vote is 5,033
Tor Hoffman, and 1868 for Griswold-total, ., 401,
showing that they voted within $50 of the
number registered. No honest man will say
that there are in the Ward $500 legal voters.
Here is a clear fraud of 2, 800 votes for Seymour
and Hoffman The same frauds are seen in
the Seventh, Eleventh, Seventeenth, Nine
teenth and Twenty-first Wards. Never in the
history of elections was ever witnessed such
barefaced ballot box stuffing. The election in
the city is nothing more than a mockery and a
farce. 1t is no expression of the people. 1t is
the voice of wickedness inten stied.
A private circular of T. j. Tiden, cl airman
of the Democratic State Committee, has come
to light, requiring returns to be sent to him
from the country Immediately upon the closing
OF the polls without waiting for the official
count, in order that the Democratic wire-pull-
ers in the city might make some estimate of
the majority they would need to overcome the
country majority.
But, after all, this wholesale fraud has failed
to accomplish the great purpose its perpetra-
tors had in view. With Democratic legisla-
ture the registry and metropolitan police laws
could have been repealed. Had that been done
it would have been well nigh impossible to re-
deem the State in future years. But with
Republican majority in both branches of the
legislature this scheme is not practicable, and
in two years we shall have the State again,
even if it is found necessary to submit to Hoff-
mans rule for the present.
The Portland daily press., 1868-11-06

BY THE SKIN OF THEIR TEETH The Ar
gus by giving Seymour California, Oregon,
Florida and West Virginia, four States having
Is electoral votes which are given to Grant,
and by giving him also Virginia, Mississippi
and Texas, three States that did not choose
their % electors at all, makes it appear that he
lacked only % votes of election! Therefore,
says the Argus, the Radicals have won by the
skin OF their teeth and the change of Pennsyl-
Vania alone would have defeated them.
We make no comment.
