WEDNESDAY, Oct. 6th.-2. Z. NJ.
Messengers from Byron have just ar
rived; they bring the news that not mill
is now standing on Swift river, and that
not bridge spans the stream from its
source to the Androscoggin, and that
much other damage is done. We hear Of
one hundred sheep being carried from an
island; Of great damage being done at
West Peru. at Dixfield and elsewhere.
Water arose about twenty-six feet
above good driving PITCH AT Gammon's
Falls and at other places along the stream
rose TO nearly that extent being hemmed
into so narrow a passage as the great vol
ume of water was in many places by the
abrupt hills on either shore, accounts for
this great rise.
At this point, where there are such
broad low-lands 10 flow, it rose three feet
higher than it did in 1920, and four feet
and eight inches higher thanin 1868, these
being the years in which have occurred
the two greatest freshets ever known in
these waters.

ARLINGTON MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE
COMPANY OF VIRGINIA.-We are gratifed
to learn that this new life insurance com
pany of Virginia is fully meeting the
largest expectations Of its projectors and
policy-holders. At late meeting of the
directory, held at the office of the company
in this ci,y, the exhibit of the business of
the company is said to have been entirely
satisfactory to all concerned. Its net assets
are now about half million Of dollars.
This is great success for less than two
years of its operations. The actuary's
reports enable the directory to say that they
will be able TO declare dividend of at least
forty per cent. on the profits Of the busi-
ness at the annual meeting in April. The
company has paid its losses promptly, and
has now fully established it's claim to the
title Of a first-class life insurance company
and every way worthy of the fullest conf
dence and the most liberal patronage Of the
insuring public.

Public Meeting in Augusta Count.

Public Meeting in Augusta county.
On yesterday (Monday-court-day) there
were many more persons than usual on
court-days in town. The weather was
pleasant, and the people turned out in great
numbers to hear Colonel J. 3. Baldwin and
Hon. A. H. H. Stuart deliver addresses on
the subject Of the new movement. Each OF
these gentlemen delivered earnest speeches
an hour and a quarter in length giving an
account of what they did, and their reasons
for doing 30. They were listened to with
great attention by the vast numbers who
crowded the courthouse.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Stuart's speech
(who followed Colonel Baldwin,, Major Abb
salon Koiner offered resolution approving
the action of Messrs. Stuart and Baldwin.
Major J. Marshall Hanger expressed the
hope that the chair would not put the ques-
ton until the other side could be heard.
In response to calls, Colonel Bolivar Chris
tian expressed his views in opposition IN
speech of considerable length. As ne con-
cluded his speech, in response to loud calls
Colonel J. H. Skinner expressed his views
in opposition to the new movement. Whilst
Colonel Skinner occupied the floor, Major
Koiner withdrew his resolution. Colonel
Skinner was followed by General Echols in
speech in favor Of the new movement.
The meeting then adjourned.
We took notes expecting TO give the sub
stance of the speeches made, but the meet
ing was continued 30 long that the hour for
going to press had nearly arrived before the
meeting adjourned, so that we could not
give more than the above brief sketch OF
the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Spectator.

ington has done good by counteracting to
some extent the false impressions that have
been so carefully made by the Virginia Ra-
dicals, but they must recollect that they
cannot receive support at home nnless they
can offer something more acceptable than
would have been allotted to the people of
Virginia without their exertions. If they
cannot get valuable modification, let them
come home and help to unite oil parties
against it. Charlottesville Chronicle.

SCHILLER LoDGE.-This old German or
ganization, formed in 1855, has been con-
verted into German Odd-Fellow Lodge.
This is owing to the diminution of the Or

received its charter, but it is supposed it
soon will. At present its meetings are held
at Blenner's New Market Hall.
