For the Press.

Having for mauy years been in the habit of
visiting Peaks Island I have of course made
myself familiar with the geography and top
ography of this beautiful and thickly settled
Island; and am well aware of the movement
which has been made by the residents there to
obtain street and school house. The facts
are these: Peaks, Cushings, Hog and Dia-
mond Islands constitute one school district
with Peaks as the central one where they all
send their children to receive all the educa-
ton (academically speaking) that they ever
have. The present accommodations arc en-
tirely inadequate for the size of the school. es.
peciaily in winter.
As to the street, all who visit the Island are
aware of the fact that visitors make everything
common and some perhaps unclean, that ey-
erybodys lands, fields of grain or grass, Or
chards, and house yards are invaded, and the
crops trampled down, and the fruit at least en-
dangered. Now is it anything unreasonable
to ask that street even of narrow width 1.-TWO
rods wide is enough) should be laid out for the
protection of the inhabitants and the conven-
fence of the public. The residents pay some
$4,000 of taxes, and should not that fact be suf-
ficent to induce the city authorities to accede
to the wishes OF the inhabitants, isolated as
they are from SO many privileges which we
eujoy on the main land? This will soon be-
come the Staten Island of Portland harbor'
and the land will be divided up in house lots
for large number of summer or permanent
residents. Will not our City Council move in
this matter the present season? have no
personal interest in these matters, and only
wish that proper regard should be had for the
comfort of our Island citizens who pay equal
taxes and ought to receive equal treatment
with those who live ON the MAIN LAND.

Sunday Services.
REV. DIR. BURGESS.

The Rev. DIR. Alexander Burgess, of Christ
Church, Brooklyn, N. T., delivered yerv
fine sermon to his old parish of st. Luke's
yesterday morning from Matthew Xxth 6. 9Th
verse, "Give them their hire, beginning from
the last unto the first" The text was talen
from the parable of the householder, who went
out early in the morning to hire laborers into
his vineyard. He engaged some for a penny a
day and set them at work; then at later hour
he engaged others at the same price, and at
the eleventh hour others, and still for the
same price; and those who were first engaged
murmured that the last should receive eoual
wages with themselves. But the employer re-
buked them, saying he had right to do with
his own as he pleased, and that they had re-
ceived the wages they had engaged for, and
had do right to murmur. He then went on to
explain that the mere question of time was of
no account with the Lord in whose sight "a
thousand years are but as one day. That the
principle that aetuated men was the main
point, and that if they worked with all their
will and strength for the glory of their Lord,
no matter whether they began at the
eleventh hour or from the very beginning of
their lives, their deeds were equally accepta-
bic in his sight, and that they should be equal
ly rewarded. After the services there was o

A ROLAND FOR HIS OLIvER.-Several days
days ago some suspicious characters offered to
sell Wall street operator $4,000 of the bonds
stolen SOME time ago from Mr.. Bennehoff, of
Pithole, Pa, for $1O6,O00 in greenbacks. The
police were informed of the fact and Friday
detectives were sent to Hudson City, New
parties met at Rush's Hosel and John Laid

contain the stolen bonds, receiving in return a
package containing 100000 in counterfeit

rested on the charge of robbing Mr.. Bennehoff
bnt upon examination the package was found
to contain one genuine $1,000 bond and about
three pounds Of old paper.

BRowNLow's APosTAcY.-H the history OF
this country during the last five years did not
show very conclusively that the prosperity of
the liberal and progressive party is in no man
ner dependent upon the adherence of promi-
nent public men, and that the detection of
leading politicians does not for moment in
terfupt or impede'the steady advance of the
masses in the direction of an enlightened and
Christian public policy, the sudden apostacy
of "Parson" Brownlow would be an i'll omen.
His ardent support of Senter during the recent
campaign in Tennessee, and his instrumental
ity in throwing the State into the hands of bis
foes and the foes Of the Republic have occa-
stoned considerable surprise. Several explana-
tions of his conduct are given, either of which
is to the last degree discreditabie to the Sem
ator. The first is that he took milf at Gen.
Grant during the last session of Congress on
account of his advice being ignored in the
matter of the appointment of Longstreet. An
other is that his wishes were not observed in
regard to the distribution OF Federal patronage
in Tennessee. A third, given by the Boston
Commonwealth, is that johnson and Brownlow
are equally interested in certain railroad
schemes in the State, and that this communi-
ty of interest has brought about an alliance be-
tween them irrespective Of political considera-
