The ideas of the Argus on the Cuban insur-
rection are copper-colored. 1t has the most
dolefui forrboaiu;;s in respect the cnianvipa-
tion of slaves in case the revolution is success
full. 1t says that there is general belief in
the island that it would be impossible ito
make Drops without holding negroes in slav-
cry" and it confesses that the lessons before
the Cubans, "such as Hayti and our own
Southern States, have not been calculated to
encourage the cause of universal freedom" 1t
adds that emancipation there must be gradu-
al and in proportion to the increase of new
system Of labor, or the scenes of idleness and
disorder that have prevailed for three years
among the blacks suddenly set free by war in
our own country will be re-enacted with ten
fold intensity, and the rich island will be
speedily impoverished, which would be a Sc
we're blow to the business interests of Portland
and would be very perceptibly felt by the peo-
pie of Maine generally"
We cannot without transcending the limits
imposed by propriety well express the indig-
nation that is excited by reading such fustian
IS that. The Argus is a thousand years be-
hind the times. What! will you still whine
over the uplifting of four millions of American
oitizens?-over their emancipation, their edu.
eation and their civilization? Will you still
attribute the woes of the last four years to the
misconduct of the negroes, who have been on
the whole peaceful and industrious, instead
oil to the idle, Rebel vagabonds who have IN ur-
dered and plundered them as opportunity of
fered? Does the commercial prosperity OF
Portland rest on the unrequited toll of SOOO OC
h,ndmen? ESQ, we say, feeling sure that all

AT meeting of the employees of the Press
Office last evening the following resolutions on
the death of N. A. Foster, ESQ.,, were adopted
Whereas, By the death OF Newell A. Foster
we have lost one who united in himself the
character of employer aud friend, whose gen.
erous heart and fine sense of justice made
his intercourse with us uniformly pleasant and
cordial; r
Resolued, That we will ever hold his many
acts of kindness and forbearance, and his gen.
erous interest in our welfare in grateful re-
membrance.
ResolUed, That we commend to all men en-
ploying the services of others, the adoption Of
the idea that governed Mr.. Foster in conduct
ing his business that the interests of employ
ers and employees are Identical
ResolUed, That we tender to the family of the
deceased our heartfelt sym 0athy, mourning
as we do, a common loss with them.
RESOLVED, That we recognize in the son, who
succeeds to the control of the affairs of this of
fee, man to whom we can cheertully give the
same support and cooperation that we gave

PEOPLE who are not wide awake are afraid
of being ION the unpopular side" if they Join
the woman suffrage movement. If they had
read the comments of the papers ON the Bos-
ton Convention, their minds would be COM
pletely disabused of this erroneous impression
We have yet TO see line that SO much as
makes merry over it. Its size, the eminence of
the persons who attended it and the enthusi-
asm that marked its sessions preclude the pos
sibllity of trying to laugh it down. The ''un-
popular side" is decidedly that of the old fogies
who oppose the inevitable. Look out for a
woman suffrage campaign in Maine. We are
informed that parties who are prominent in
the movement are taking steps to hold conven-
tions in different parts of the State, and to
bring the matter before the Legislature this
winter with view to constitutional amend
ment, making suffrage universal. Let Maine
for once lead Massachusetts,.

NEW ENGLAND EXPRESS Cove UNDER
stand that Mr. E. NJ. Sargent, of the Boston
and Lowell Express, has purchased the whole
properly of the England Express and will set
tie the claims upon the equipments, and proba-
bly, run the Express in some shape or other.
The first trouble the New England Co. ex-
perienced was on last Thursday, when all their
property in this city was attached to pay de-
mands due the railroads. 1t was then sup
posed that these demands might be settled by
calling upon the stockholders for further
assessment of five per cent, only fifteen per
cent on the stock having been paid by the
stockholders in this city, and but very little by
those out of the city. But other troubles fol-
lowed in rapid succession until Saturday eve
ming, when the employees of the company
who had not been paid their monthly dues,
struck and demanded their pay.
We do not believe there has been any swind-
ling transaction in this matter. The President
of the Company, Ezra Carter, Esq, is one who
would never countenance any thing of that
kind. That it has been unfortunate is very
evident, and we are not surprised when we
consider that the facilities and reduced rates
allowed other Express Companies by tn rail-
road corporations were denied to this on the
ground that special contract had been made
with the others.

GRANTS "HosTLER" An ex-Rsbel who
happened to pass Grants stables in Washing
ton thought he would drop in. The denoue-
ment is thus described:
A plain looking little man, in his shirt
sleeves, was sitting on an inverted water-buck-
ct, quietly smoking cigar To this plain Lit
tie man went the inquisitive gentleman, and
requested permission to look at "Hiram Ulys-
ses's horse-hesh." This granted, he was en-
boldened to proceed further and attacked the
supposed hostlef with a battery of questions
regarding Gen. Grants family, his private hab-
its, political opinions, ETC. etc., till the plain
little man was utterly exhausted. "Did you
ever see Grants likeness?" gasped the sufferer.
"Oh, yes; of course. They say he's ugier than
the prints make him. 1 suppose you know
him well now. He talks to you, of course,
great deal about his horses, and wouldn'twon-
der if he told you a good deal more than most
people knowabout him." The little man re-
sponded that he did know Gen. Grant, in fact,
he was lite well acquainted with him. You
have seen Grants likeness" said he, NOW
what do you think? Do l look anything like
him?" A food of light overwhelmed the Gu
rious gentleman in an instant The little man
in shirt-sleeves and smoking was Grant him.

gies escaped from the gentleman. He was
sorry to have made such mistake-very sorry

rhe Land Slide a, CumherIana Nl

NJ ->s~AAss SAAeAC as SuhnUcFlau0 N1ulSs
Yesterday the scene of the great land slide
at Cumberland Mills was visited by hundreds
OF people, who were we'll repaid for their Jog
ging over bad roads and through the mud
1t occurred about one-third of a mile below
the mills, where, as we stated Monday, sharp
bend in the river occurs. The slide was on the
North bank of the Presumpscot river, directly
across the river to a point on the opposite side
nearly half mile distant. The top of the
land was light sandy loan and below it was
blue clay. 1t resulted in dammingup the river
and to spread the waters far and wide over the
adjacent intervals until it could seek new
outlet 1t is estimated that about one hun-
bred acres of land have thus been submerged
but large portion will be reclaimed as soon
as new channel is made.
The water, being thus suddenly damned
backed up and flooded the basement of tho
Cumberland Mills, but did not do so mucb
damage as was feared on Sunday. The fire
boxes of the boilers were nearly reached nv
the water and a considerable portion of the
works of the finishing room in the new brick
mill is covered by water; but the machinery
of the establishment is untouched as a general
thing, and the damage to it will not be very
heavy. All of the manufactured stock of ma
per and large portion of the unmanufactured
stock and the pulp was saved.
The damage to the mills and loss of stock is
estimated at $4,000, but this includes the delav
in manufacturing, as the mills were turning
out eight tons of paper per day. Mr.. Raw
mond estimates the damage to his property bv
the overflow of his intervale, &C., at $4,000.
Mr.. Hammond, Superintendent of the mills
was at work yesterday with gang of men
digging new channel across the submeroad
point. He is in hopes to have it completed
and every thing in shape so that the mills
can be running again in few weeks.
