FIRE ORGANIZATION.-Dover has a fire
marshal and assistants, who can authorize the
citizens to work at such duties as they may as
sign them during fire, we believe. We need
some such organization in this town. The citi-
zens on Sunday were two long getting to work.
We have two good engines, that squirt water
faster than it is generally supplied to them,
with hooks, ladders, hose, &C., and if we had
some authorized organizers and some better
means for obtaining water we would be pretty
well off. No town on the Peninsula has better
appliances than we have. True, they might
be better, but they are far more serviceable
than the en- who stand off during fire and
swear about them. Let's try the Dover plan.

Cows LosT.-Four of the fine Alderny COWS,
belonging to Gen Van Worst, who has mod :,
sl farm near Milford, died very suddenly last
week The cause Of their death is not known,
but is thought by some to have originated in
change of pasture, from a field where close
cropping and the drought had almost destroyed
the grass. to one where the clover was quite
green and thick. The General has some GO or
70 head of these cattle. Several of them were
imported at a heavy expense, and one of the
cows that died, is said to have cost over $500

ELEcTIoNs.-Maine held its annual election
on Monday, and the Republicans were success
full, as usual. Returns from lis towns show
a Republican majority of 5000 for Perham,
the Republican candidate for Governor, against
4,942, last year. All the Republican Congress
men are elected, including Lynch, Of the lst
district, which the Democrats claimed. His
majority is 1900 Numbers Of Republicans
interested in the election of Chamberlain to
the U. S. Senate, voted for Democratic State
Senators and Representatives. There may
consequently be decrease in the Republican
majority in the Legislature, but still the ma
jority will be large.

The WAR.-The war in Europe has been
superseded by the revolution in France. But
little fighting has been going on since the
capture of the French army and Emperor at
Sedan. The advance of the Prussians upon
Paris continues without interruption from the
French forces. On Thursday last they reach
ella Ferte, village on the Marine, distant only
40 miles from Paris. The columns of the
right wing were at Scissors on the day before,
and were expected Thursday at Compiegne on
the Oise River, not more than 40 miles from
the capital. Special dispatches from the
French Capital to the New York Tribune rep
resen: in strong language the piteOuS condition
of the army within its walls The 10000 Re-
serves, who are all that remain of the once
proud army Of France, are utterly demoralized.
There are besides 80 900 National Guards 90,
900 Gardes Mobiles, 5000 armed Volunteers

to defend Paris against 300, 900 trained soldier!
of the best organized army in Europe. The
French fortresses however, hold out bravely

Italy, Austria, and Prussia are agreed in priu
ciple, and have authorized Russia to ask Prus

has been sent by telegraph to Berlin.
In the mean time the French Republic

ANSWER 10 A CURIOUS QUESTION:
"A young student In geography +"
asks us this question: "What Is the
distance between the deepest part Of
the sea and the top Of the highest
mountain?" 10 this we must answer
that there Is some dispute among to-
pographers as to which is the highest
mountain on our globe, and no one
can say what Is the deepest part Of the
sea, In view of the fact that but a small
portion Of It has been sounded. But IL
may answer this young students pur-
pose, and perhaps contribute an inter-
esting point to popular Information, if
We state that the deepest sounding" "
Of the sea, Of which we have any rec
ord at hand. was made by the British
ship Herald, In latitude 36, 40 south.
longitude 36, 6 west, on the S0th Of
October, 1852, at the vast depth Of a.
336 feet, or about eight and three quar-
tor miles and that the highest peak
Of the Himalayas, in Asia, Is reported
to. be 2S.l7S feet, or about five and one
third miles above the level Of the sea.
We may, therefore, set down the diff
ference between the highest mountain
on our globe and the greatest ascer-
tained depth Of the sea, as fourteen
miles and about one tenth Of mile.
