Mr.. EDIToR,-This town can beyoLd
doubt boast as many frst-rate water powers
as any other of its size in the State A re-
port was made to the "Water-Power Cf
Maine" last year, but as we had no idea OF the
importance of the forthcoming book, and that
it was to be, as it will be, a standard 1ork on
the topics it treats, for many years to come,
we tailed to have a thorough survey made
Accordingly, this year, being fully determm-
ell to embrace the opportunity for cheap Gd-
rerttSing, afforded by the liberality OF the
State, we have had thorough exploration OF
our power, and have made a return to the
Superintendent of the Hydrographic Survey,
OF thirty water-powers!
Perhaps half of these privileges are now, or
have been in time past, in occupation, but
only an Insignificant fraction of the whole
power is used At the "Great Falls" the
whole volume is precipitated down descent
Oh seventy-three ieet in fifty-fve rods. The
situation is most favorable for the location OF
any number of manufacturing establishments
OF the largest class. The river, above, for if
teen miles can be converted into a great res
eryoir fed by Numerous lakes and ponds,
which also can be used for storage.
On Hancock Stream" there are at least,
eighteen points where power can be used ad-
vantageously. This stream has total fall of
275 feet, and is fed by nearly five square
miles OF lakes and ponds. Immense quanti-
ties OF timber stu remain in the vicinity of
these ponds.
This town is a great storehouse of shocks,
hoop-poles and slaves. Masts and ship tim
Der are also supplied in abundance. If we
can only have railroad here we are sdnguine
that at no distant day Lewiston or Lowell
will be built in our midst.

To the Editor of the Press:
With the right to vote and to follow the ac-
tive trades and professions, goes the "right" to
rob me thy fathers exchequer;' at least SO
thinks Mrs Brown-Mrs. G. j. Brown, alias
but she has legion of aliases, limited only by
the number of jobs she has been engaged in
Accordingly she left her rural home in Michi-
gan, where she is reputed to be an authoress,and
commenced tour eastward for the purpose of
selling copyrights. She finally reached Roch-
ester, N. H., where she obtained from bank
a check for 81 1S-1OO, and then continued her
journey to our city. Dextrously inserting q
"0'' between the and the fraction, and "ty"
between the word Seven and the fraction,
she took her $40 1S-100 from our Granite Bank
and with other small checks of 81, So and S9
obtained from various banks in Connecticut
and New Hampshire, played similar tricks on
the banks in Halloweli, Gardiner and North
Berwick. Detective Sargent, of Boston, hap
pened to be here at the time working up the
incendiary cases at the United States Arsenal
and being put in possession of the facts in re-
lation to Mrs. Brown, incidentally gave her
case some attention on his return He soon
got trace of woman who had been swindling
the banks for the last five years, and who had
served an apprenticeship in the prisons at
Barre and Springfield, Mass, and became sat
isied that she was the one he wanted. He
found her boarding at hotel in Hartford,
Conn.,, and sat opposite her at the table for
day or two, but unhappily before he could get
proof of her identity and a requistion from
Gov. Chamberlain, she was arraigned by off,
Ger Wilcox, OF Middletown, Conn, ON the
charge of swindling bank in that place, and
ordered to recognize in the sum of S1000.-
Meanwhile Mr.. Sargent had obtained an affi-
davit of identity and a warrant from Gov.
English, and stood ready to greet Mrs. b. the
moment she was released on bail But Mrs
b. was a shrewd woman, and having received
hint of Mr.. Sargents business, allowed her
self to be committed. But Mr.. Sargent was a
shIewd man, and deposited his papers with the
jailor; hence Mrs. B. is really in "duranoe vile"
for her depredations in Kennebec, whittier she
will come the moment she is released in Hart
ford. Mr.. Sargent says her real name is Sarah
j. Van Vleet; that she is about 40 years of
age, with plain and rather repulsive features,
but that for adroitness she will beat the world.

A PRETTY QUARREL.

Some English officers in Quebec recently
went to "a ball and insulted certain ladies
there present. A civilian, Mr.. Lemesurier,
punished one of them, Captain Elmhirst, with
a cane, and the next day the Captain chal-
lenged him to fight duel. But Mr.. Leme-
surfer declined to allow the aristocratic
blackguard who had insulted his lady friend
the satisfaction of shooting him, and refused
the challenge, whereupon the Captain writes
to the newspapers that Mr.. L., is coward.

RAILWAY TROUBLES.

1t now seems probable that the attempt to
oust Mr.. G. j. Brydges from his post as man
ager of the Grand trunk Railway will fail.
His administration of the affairs of the road
has been very unpopular in Canada, and his
appointment on the Commission OF the Inter
colonial does not meet with favor; but he has
the warm side of the English directors. The
Toronto Globe pettishly remarks:
The management OF great railway like
the Grand Trunk, was too much for Mr..
Bridges when he had nothing else to do.
What will be the result when he has the
building of the Intercolonial Railway to man
age? 1t is a bad thing for the Dominion to
have the Grand Trunk Manager on the In
tercalonial Railway Commission, but it is
equally bad for the Grand Trunk sharehold-

NOVA SCOTIA.

NOVA SCOTIA.
The recent letter of Mr.. Joseph Howe, TO
which we referred briefly on Monday, is al
most complete abandonment OF his fcrmer
position with reg.rd TO Nova Scotian affairs
lie refers to his former services i'm behalf of
the Province; says that he has. at great per-
sonal sacrifice given two years to the battle
for repeal; that the combination .arrayed
a anst him comprised 1.-The Queens name.
the Houses Of Lords and Commons, the Gov
ernor General, three Lieutenant Governors.
thirty-five delegates, including many of the
ablest men in British America, the Canadian
press, and until recently nearly the entire
press of England" In this cause, he says
The battle was to the strong; and when
| returned from England twice defeated, ]
would have been justified as Lee was in lay
| ing down my arms; and had l done so and
accepted the situation frankly, my honor
would have been as untarnished as that OF
| the unsuccessful soldier"
But he declares that he has not laid down
his arms, only he intends TO confine himself
to very peaceful ones.
| He thinks there are three peaceful courses
open to the people of Nova Scotia. First an
appeal to the new Government and Paria
ment of England; second, an attempt to re-
vive an old scheme of union Of the Mari
time Provinces; and third, negotiation with
the Canadians for re-adjustment OF the
terms upon which Nova Scotia was forced in
to Confederation. How either OF these is to
be brought about he does not take the troub-
lie to explain. But he is very scornful OF the
idea of forcible resistance to the will OF Eng
land. He thinks the United States would
give no aid TO rebellious Nova Scotia, and il
She were disposed so TO do she would be no
match for the power Of England. On the
whole, he seems to think there is but little
for Nova Scotia to do but to make the best OF
bad bargain. Whether his countrymen
will agree with him remains to be seen. OF
course there are not wanting plenty of per-
sons who explain Mr.. Howe's course by the
supposition that he is tired OF remaining out
in the cold, and wouli be quite willing 10
himself at the government fire.

4 CONFERENCE,

The representatives from the various prov
inces of the Dominion are just now holding a
conference at Ottawa, the object of which is
to devise an immigration policy that shall in
some measure atone for the neglect this sub
ject has hitherto met with. Not one quarter
of the thousands of emigrants who arrive at
Quebec remain in the country; and many of
those who have settled generally in year or
two move to the United States, mostly on ac-
count of iliberal regulations, which give to
the settler no i4ducement and afford him no
protection. The Canadians have at last
thought it worth tfeir while to give the ques-
ton some attention, and the Dominion will
no doubt appear in the European market
making bids for emigrants, while the existing
laws will be so modified as to make it more
desirable tor foreigners to settle in the coun-
