INcIPIENr CONFEDERATION Monday
evening while the Lodge OF Sons and Daugh-
tiers of Temperance was in session, a small
hand lamp, in Bachelor & Frederieks Land
Office, exploded, scattering the oil over the Ia
BILE and burning up number OF papers, books,
etc, but was distinguished before the fire was
communicated to the building. The hall used
by the Temperance Society adjoins Bachelor &
Frederick's office, the same stairway leading to
both. The land Office is used ante room
by the Society, but at the time the lamp eX-
plodcd there was no one in the room. Master
James Evans, happening in the room, discOve r-
ed the fire and gave the alarm. w. Il. Denny,
outside sentinel Of the Lodge, closed the door
of the Lodge room, and with the assistance OF
Master Evans and Mr.. Wicks, put out the fire
before much damage was done. and without
alarming the large number of ladies and gem
tlcmen in the Lodge room. Among the papers
and books destroyed was the contract book OF
Bachelor 81 Frederick. Those who have made
contracts with them since the ist of Septcm-
Der, are requested to come forward and renew
them soon, 50 that they may again he placed on
record. IL is very fortunate that the entire
block was not burned.

Z ANNoUNcEsENT-The extraordinary inter-
est felt in the remarkable romance" The
Dead Letter, will be answered by its early re :
production in the columns of the Illuminated
Western World, the publishers of which have
obtained exclusive right to such republication.
1t will now be given as originally written, and
as it was before the parties supposed to be inn
plicated or concerned attempted its suppress
sion. The entire edition, some fifty thousand
which had been printed in book form, has been
entirely withdrawn from the trade, and the
story can only be obtained as above. The Dead
Letter is a tale of blood-of love SO strong, so
true-of devoted friendship SO disinterested,
and of human sagacty in following up the al
most invisible trail of wrong and crime, so en-
tieing that few minds can resist the fascina-
ton of the story. The edition commencing
the story of The Dead Letter will be accom-
panied with beautiful Cartoon printed in oil
colors, of "Opera Bouffe on the Rolling Deep"
1Oxl2 inches in size, in which the artist has in
troduced several well known characters.

THE HfGH STREET PAR1sH.-An important
meeting of this Parish was held last evening,
at which plan of the proposed remodeling of
the church building was adopted, or rather the
action OF the special committee in the matter
explained and approved. We have already
stated that a fine lot of land, in the rear of the
church, has been purchased of Dr. Wood and
Mrs. Clapp, for the vesty, which has long
been desired.
There were four plans submitted to the COM
mittee, and of these the one made by Mr.. Geo.
b. Pelham was chosen. 1t comprehends an
entire change of the front and ar extension
front elevation is very handsome and is of the
Gothic order of architecture. 1t has small
tower ON each corner and a large and imposing
one in the middle, one hundred and twenty
three feet high, surmounted by spire, the
whole to be covered with mastic. The side
walls are to be kept but strengthened and or
namented with pilasters. The roof is also to
remain, but will be strengthened. The floor
is to be lowered four feet or more, thus doing
away with the old high steps. The interior is
to be beautifully finished, the pews to be cir
eular, upon the sides, and to. be Of white ash
with walnut trimmings. With the galleries
there will be something over one hundred and
sixty pcws. The vestry is to be OF brick, two
stories high, and 64x31 feet.
"A large number of bids were handed in to
the committee, and the contract was awarded
to Mr.. T. E. Stuart to do the whole work, the
price being $2S,SOO, the vestry to be ready for
occupancy by the middle of August, and the
church by November 1st
Thus it will be seen that the "protracted
meetings of this Parish are to be discon-
tinued, for season at least, and the important
work of getting ready for new order of things
is to take the place of discussion. The con-
tract is to be signed to-day and the work be-
gnn at once

The ATTITUDE OF THE TEMPERANCE MEN.
"A correspondent of the Bangor Wing, writ
ing from this city in behalf Of the state Tenn
perance Committee that met in this city on
Wednesday and Thursday OF last week asserts
that the temper of the meeting was different
from what was indicated in the Press. OF
their real feeling the correspondent says:
1t is entirely apparent that the temperance
men cannot, in any event, be made to support
the renomin3 ton of Gen. Chamberlain. They
make no secret of this resolution, and further
say that unless a candidate is nominated by
the Republican Convention who is acceptable
and a practical temperance man, and unless a
sound prohibitory plank is put into the plat
form, they will make their own nominations
and build their own platform. 1t was for this
reason that the Convention was not called
until after that at Bangor. Upon the action
of the Bangor Convention evidently depend
the fate of the Republican party. If the nom :
ination there made is not satisfactory to tn e
temperance Republicans the election of Gov
ornor will be thrown into the Legislature
where, under existing political complications
it is exceedingly doubtful what the result will
be. The Temperance men heretofore have con-
tented themselves with resolving and with
promises, but they are now organized and
mean something besides words. Such is a
specimen ct the outside talk, and whether the
dominant party can afford to disregard it is a
question which the leaders can consider.
