Landslide I'm Maine = Sinking o
Forty Acres OF Land.
From the Portland Argus, November7s.

From the Portland Argus Novembcr7s.
The people in the village Of Cumberland
Mills and vicinity, which is about FIVE
miles from this city, were startled about s
O'Clock yesterday morning by rumblinr
noise and Earring OF the earth which thew
supposed to be an earthquake. Investiga-
cicn, however, disclosed an immense land
slide on the north bank Of the presumpscot
civer about one-third Of mile below Cum
oerland Mills. The land sunk extends
back from the river nearly half O. mile in
IN oblong shape, and is some forty rods in
width, embracing at least thirty acres. 1t
fell from thirty TO fifty feet, and the river
was damned up for more than an eighth of
mile. The land which sunk was for
ten feet from the service light, sandy
loam, and below that, blue clay. There was a
light growth of scattering wood on the
greater portion, and most Of the trees
are left standing erect, or very nearly 30,
notwithstanding their drop. The damming
up Of the river overfowed about forty-four
acres of MIR. Samuel Raymond's interval
land, on the opposite side, damaging his
property to from $4,000 to $4,000. The
water continued to back up and overflow
adjacent lands. The Cumberland Paper
Mills we're flooded to the first windows on
the lower floor, entirely submergipg all in
The lower part Of the mill, including, of
course, the valuable machinery in the base
ment. Operations at the mills will neces-
Sarily be suspended for q time, and three
hundred operatives will be thrown out of
employment. 1t was apparent that the
convulsion was not occasioncd by the I'M
termining Of the river. The sinking evil
IDENTIFY commenced some distance away from
that, and the bed of the river was pressed
upward to the level of the surrounding land.
The water in the section oyerhowed appa-
rently ceased to rise about o'clock yes
terday afternoon, and no damage was appre-
hended by the rise of water above the up
per dam at Cumberland Mills. 1t is diff
cult to approximate the amount of damage
inflicted, but it cannot, it was thought, fall
short Of 100000. The course Of the river
will be permanently changed, and it was
contemplated to put on large force to-day
and cut a channel for it across Mr.. Ray
mond's interval land. The phenomenon
occasioned a good deal of excitement, and
hundreds Of people visited the scene during
the day from this city and the surrounding
country. The affair is not entirely without
precedent in this vicinity. Some fifteen
years ago about twenty acres sank in a
similar way few miles from the scene of
the present disaster. In that case, how
ever, the damage was only to the land in
volved. The effect of the CONFUSION upon
the river may be imagined from the fact
that fish of various kinds, pickerel, trout,
sruelts, &C., were picked up in large quanti-
ties on the adjacent lands. The sudden re-
ceding of the water, after the overflow,
caused by the first crush, left the tnny
tribe high and dry on terra .tirnna.
