1t is reported, on what appears to be good
authority, that the leading wire-pullers
amongst Ultramontane Roman Catholics have
determined on putting forward Archbishop
Manning to advocate the new dogma of the
Pope's personal infallibilty at an early session
of the forthcoming Latin Council. This prop
osition will be as stoutly resisted by the
French prelates, headed by the Archbishop Of
Paris and Monseigneur Dupanloup, as by sew
eral of tht English Roman Catholic bishops
The distinguished Benedictine who has edited
the "Bollandist Lives of the Saints" and who
will be present at the Council as one of the
selected theologians, is reported to believe
that this proposed action on the part of Arch
bisop Manning is also strongly discounte-
nanced by very large majority of the bishops
who have been summoned.

NAPLES, July 8, 1869.
The steamer that has been building for Long
Pond and Sebqgo Lake was launched last Sat-
urday, and is a perfect boat in every respect.
She came here yesterday, and through the po-
likeness of Capt. Simons (who, by the way, is
a perfect gentleman), the ladies and gentlemen
of the place were invited to make an excur-
sion to Sebago Pond, which was readily ac-
cepted. We had over one hundred passen-
gers, including a delegation from Bridgton,
and ample accommodations for as many more
The greatest objection which has been raised
against the boat has been the supposed impos-
sibility of getting over the sand bars in the
rivers and ponds This proved to be a mistake.
She passed one of the worst bars as easily as
row-boat, and steamed out to Brandy Pond,
and into Songo river, and thence to Seba,o
Lake. Coming home, one of our respected
citizens, s. III. Cole, proposed making up a
purse for Captain Simons, which was immedi-
ately carried into effect, and the sum of $26. 40
was forthwith raised and presented. Every
one was pleased with the trip.
The bridge here will be put in readiness in
about fortnight, when the boat will begin to
make her regular trips to Brdgton. b.

MANY years ago Hon. Thomas B. Laigbten
was an active and influential politician in New
Hampshire, and more fortunate than many of
his fellow laborers in the political vineyard,
bore off some of the prizes of official life. But
finding that the penalty of political prefer
mont was envy and detraction, and that an
ofdce-holder's life was full of trouble, he re-
tired from the main land in disgust, and estab-
hshed home at the Isle of Shoals, where he
built the Appledore House, famous summer
resort. He lived some thirty years after aban-
doning his old home, in the enjoyment of health
and prosperity, but could never be induced to
leave the islands for the main land He died
few years since in green old age.
1t is great wonder that others similarly sit
uatrd have uop fotfvwcu ms example anu gone
into voluntary exile. Surely many Senators
and Representatives and heads of departments
must have realized since the 4th of March that
"Jordan is hard road to travel" and if some
of them have not contemplated suicide, it
proves that life is unspeakably precious ev,.n
