Bleeding may give ease, because the blood left has

Brandreths Pills relieve the circulation and give
ease more surely and almost as quickly as bleeding
but Brandreth's Pills never hurt and the good they
do is permanent, because they take only what the

Auyum ASSOCIATION 18kauo kxcufBtoms
We have often said that singers and instru-
mentalists who can make music for others as
well as for themselves are twice blest, and that
is more than we can say of everybody. The
members OF this reorganized Association were
conveyed to Little Chebeague yesterday morn
ing in the steamboat ella the best pleasure
boat we have had on the waters of our harbor.
She is under the command of VIM. Mitchell,
and that is sufficient guaranty that she is ad-
mirably managed. Coming home she was
crowded with passengers. We think she will
do profitable business through the summer.
She is Just the craft to cruise among the is
lands of our harbor, where is found the finest
land and water prospects ON the Atlantic
coast.
After the singers had landed on the island
they were soon called to order, and performed
selections from st. Paul, the Creation, operate
choruses, glees and songs. with orchestral ac-
compartments Never was such music heard
on this island before, and we trust it will be
heard again there, or on some other Of our
many beautiful islands, before summer is
gone. q 3, az -. seei "a aaW
The Coliseum since these musical exhibi-
tons took place, vastly more spacious than
the Boston one, was not made with hands,
and, for aught we know, it may be eternal
These musical people were determined to have
good time, and they did have it We have
never seen them in better spirit OF in more
pleasant hnmor with themselves and with eve
rybody else. They sang all the way over, while
there, and coming back. All were lively, &C
tive and full Of fun, as well as of music.
Now Shakespeare himself never thought q
play complete in all its parts unless there wai
comical character introduced. And this
company had two, if not three, one to tell
comic stories, and the other to sing comic
songs, while the Band did little of both, SC
that this musical drama upon the island yes
terday was complete in all its parts. And
more than this. Mr.. w. D. Haskell intro.
duced his little son, only four years old, who
sang in perfect time and tune "Capt jerks,
and some other pieces, being accompanied BY
his father on the Melodeon. On the whole, w
think the members of this musical association
we're well satisfied with the days doing. There
was enough of every thing good for the stom
ach, and the day was passed in happy re-
union. May they have another next August,
and we think the people win follow them.

4 EXTRACT from private letter from Hawaii,
Sandwich Islands. y Although
the eruption is not SO violent now, the volcano
is fearful sight to behold. The rivers of lava
still flow, and the smoke from the crater as
cends in awful majesty. During this volcanic
upheaval it has been very sickly here. A Pc
culiar sort of low ma1arious fever, which has
grown out of the foul, condensed vapors of the
volcano, has prevailed to an alarming extent,
and at one time it was feared it would depopu-
late the island. But fortunately, sea captain
calling here for supplies) distributed Planta-
ton Bitters to the suffering, and quick and
thorough cures were the result. The news
spread like wild-fire. Messrs. Ching-T ahn &
Co. Commission Merchants, had these Bitters
for sale. In short time their office was be-
sieged and their supply exhausted. A Steam
er was dispatched to San Francisco by order
of the Hospital Department, and q new and
enormous supply obtained as soon as possible.
From that moment the scourge was stayed
Not another fatal case occurred, and the emf
demic has now entirely disappeared. Is
this wonderful remedy known in your city, 1
hope so for it is q sure cure for all fevers and
miasmatic sickness. You may tell your friends
so for me. III NC

PORTLAND IN HOLIDAY ATTIRE. THE ROWING
REGATTA FAILURE THE EoHe WHIP THE
ANpHoscoGGrNs. DESCRIPTION on THE LRAp-
ING EVENTS OF THE DAY. sUNDRY LITTLE
INCIDENTS NEVER BEFORE IN PRINT.
Probably never before in the history of
Portland, since the national holiday began to
be recognized by bonfres, cannon, bells and
general jolii6cation, have the citizens enjoy
ed such quiet night as the one preceding the,
Fifth of July 1869. The stringent order Of the
Mayor,-which was carried into effect by Mar
shall Swett-that no firearms or crackers would
be permitted to be used before 8 A. NJ, or after
Z A. NJ, resulted in a tranquility never before
experienced by the Oldest inhabitant, and the
first sound which awoke the majority from
their slumbers, was the ringing OF the bells
and the peal of the cannon at sunrise
At an early hour the long train of wagons
from the country districts began to pour into
the city, laden with old men and matrons
young men and blooming maidens, all on the
Qui uiUs to revel in the entertainments provid-
ed by the city fathers. Every style of team
was to be seen from the antedeluvian zone
horse shay" to the neat carryall drawn by its
span OF well-groomed, spirited roadsters. The
trains on the different lines of railway also
brought in goodly number, while shanks-
mare was probably the most popular vehicle
for the accommodation of many who were also
provided with lunch bags, determined that
their hard earnings should not 60 to swell the
pockets Of the storekeepers.
The weather was delightful. A cool bracing
air from the North tended to keep everybody
comfortable and good natured, and prevented
the spectacle of struggling masses of human
ity in chronic white heat, but the gale, in
the first part of the morning, completely ruin
ed the rowing regatta which was one of the
principal features Of the day.
THE FANTAsTICs.
About clock Company @ took up its line
of march and paraded through many of the
streets creating good deal of merriment and
making several very good hits at leading top
les of the day, while others were old as the
hills. The fantasies proper were preceded by
the Forest City Band and cavalcade of horse
men, and the whole procession may have
numbered some fifty or sixty. But to get up
a really brilliant fantastical display requires
both time and money, as is the case with most
every thing else, and rags, broken-down car
riages, etc., hardly pay the gentlemen who la
Dor SO hard to get up the procession for the
amusement of their fellow citizens.
