ANDRoscoaGIN COUNTY

A girl about Z years of age, daughter of John
Daley Of Lewiston, being asked by her grand
mother to get up Saturday night about eight
o'clock and bring her match, proceeded to
obey her, but in striking the match, her night
dress caught fro and before assistance could
be rendered she was so shockingly burned that
she died at two o'clock Sunday morning, as
we learn from the journal.
Lewiston seems to have its "roughs," as we'll
the larger cities. The Journal states that as
John Burroughs an employee at the Gas
Works, was returning home from his work on
Friday night last, he was set upon near the
Ledge" on lower Lincoln street by eight or
nine roughs, who wantonly threw him down
upon the icy ground, breaking both bones of
his forearm.
KEsNEBEc COUNTY.
The Augusta Journal states that Mr.. James
Thompson of Augusta, recently received the
sad news of the death of his son George, an
engineer on the Central Ohio railroad, who
was killed in the following manner: The for
ward truck of the locomotive broke, and the
engine pitched from the track. the express and
baggage cars following. Mr.. Thompson was
found in his seat dead, and as the steam ap-
paratus was disarrenged, it was at first sup
heated steam, but on removing the body it was
found that he " as otherwise injured.
The Augusta Journal says the first locomo-
tive used in New England is now in the shop
of the P. & x. r. R., in that city, being re-
paired for the dummy train to Gardiner. The
machine was buill in Liverpool for the Boston
& Worcester railroad, and was the first one
used on this road, Its former name was the
"Lion," now called the "Brookline."
SOMERSET COUNTY.
Last Saturday while three men were engag-
ed in preparing blast in a ledge Just above
Norridgewock Village, the blast exploded and
one of the men named Bessie, was so severely
injured that no hope of his recovery is enter
tanned. Another of the men bad both eyes
blown out. The third man was not SO serious
ly injured. The men were charging seam
IN flinty rock, and in tamping it the powder
exploded.

Secretary Of stats On Tuesday A treaty
has been negotiated whereby this Gov.
eminent takes possession of the bay and
peninsula Of SANTANA for Q term Of fifty
years, 1t rental Of $4,000 in coin per
annum, with the privilege Of purchasing
at any time at the price Of 100000.
These are the terms which Mr.. Seward
offered for the same property, but which
were declined by President Baez This
price having thus been offered once by
our Government, the Dominicans declined
to accept less, and the rental was fixed at
the rate of about n per cent. of the con-
tingent purchase money. After the pa
pers had been signed the representatives
of the United States took formal posses
sion, and nothing is now wanting but the
consent of the Senate to the ratification of
the treaty.
