In the Giles Memorial we find an ac-

In the Giles Memorial we find an ac-
count of the attack made on jamestown
in 1889 In this account the author states
that ''the Indians sent scouts to James
town from New IIarbor to observe the
habits of the people, that the scouts re-
ported that the men We're generally alb
sent during the day leaving at their homes
only women and chi}drcn."
The same author states that "eiqtty-tour
families, embracinga population of about
five hundred souls, are said to have oc-
cupied Pemaquid in 1881" lie adds 1T
soon after became a place of much note,
outstrippng in Importance every local
ity between the Piscataqua and Fort Roy
al in Acadia, becoming in fact the capital
of the Eastern coast"
In commenting on the paved streets at
jamestown. Robin Hood says: .'It these
ever were streets we are inclined to think
they belonged to a lost civilization that
once inhabited this continent" and adds
in support Of his theory that "a person can
dig almost anywhere in the fields of Penn
aquid and find layers of cobble stones
a foot or two under the surface" In reply
to this it is safe to say that no person liv-
ing at Pemaquid or in its vicinity ever
saw before or heard OF these layers of
cobble stones.
This theory of "a lost civilization" in
connection with jamestown is interesting.
1t is to be hoped that Robin Hood will push
his investigation still further in the direc-
ton of Pemaquid lie might, through the
aid of those citizens of Bristol, from whom
he obtained the information about numer-
Gus cellars in distant forests, unearth that
supposititious city that existed "before
Jamestown and was larger than Thcbes.
If on investigation those layers of cobble
stone should be found underlying the fields
of Pemaquid it would not be ut all surpris
inc if careful research should bring to light

ally SphynX. By all means let the in

expectation that the result will enrich
history, crush out IA presumptuous ''little
sect and confound disbelieyers in the d.

Should the result of such an investiga-
ton prove the correctness of this theory OF
lost civilization, that the paved streets
at Pemaqud were made by people who
were 50 unfortunate As to have lived be-
fore the landing OF the Pilgrims at Plym-
outh, there will be some satisfaction, at
least to Robin Hood, in having reason to
believe that .divine Providence visited
that premature people with his most signal
displeasure" and swept them from the
face of the earth because they were not

OUR SHIPPING INTERESTS.
Committee,

On Wednesday last, Mr.. Lynch of Maine,
delivered a speech in the House of Repre-
sentatives, repeating the many augments so
often and clearly urged in favor of measures
to promote the shipping and commercial in
terests of the country. The select commit
tee of which he is chairman, collected mass
of facts and Statistics which were presented
in their report, and upon this Mr.. Lynch
makes a strong speech in favor of aid. The
measures proposed by the bill reported, and
for which Mr.. Lynch spoke, are: A draw
back equivalent to the duties on all imported
materials used in the construction of vessels
built in the United States; and when Ameri-
can material is used in the construction of
iron vessels, the payment of an amount
equivalent to the duties; the withdrawal in
bond of stores for consumption on voyages
to foreign ports, and the payment of small
annual subsidy to vessels engaged in the for
eign trade.
Mr.. Lynch thinks the drawback of the duty
on the material will be sufficient to put wooden
shipbuilding on its feet again, but to es-
tablish the building of iron vessels in this
country, which he deems desirable, he
insists that payment shall be made to the
builder, of an amount equal to the duty on
imported material when American material is
used. This will encourage and protect the
business and ultimately establish it firmly
upon our sofia result which is much to be
hoped for, although it would appear accord
ing to Mr.. Lynch's data and reasoning that
the West would then bear away the supre
macy in shipbuilding. Nevertheless it will
be difficult to wrest the sceptre from the peo
pie that live by the sea. They are the ones
that plough the ocean in all ages and coun-
tries, and in their hands the commerce of the
country will always be. The coal and iron
that are used in the construction and running
of vessels will be furnished by the West, but
the shipyards we believe will not be removed
into the country very far from the element
upon which their fabrics are to float. Mr..
Lynch contends ably for subsidies to build
up foreign lines of steamers, and closes with
a review of general trade and commerce. from
which he draws conclusions favorable to
American interests if we only arouse our
selves, but disaster if we do not act with ener-
gy and wisdom.

HON. JOHN L. STEVENS.

On Monday next, Hon. John L. Stevens
upon the mission to which he has been APP
pointed by the United States government,
as Minister to Uruguay and Paraguay.
The duties appertaining to the Ministerial
function in both these countries has been
united in one since Mr.. Stevens was APP
pointed Minister to Uruguay, giving him
double task to perform, and consequent
ly increasing the responsibility and i'm
portance of the duty assigned him. With
the death Df Lopez we trust the difficulties
that have beset our diplomacy with Para
quay have vanished, and that henceiorth
our relations with that government as well
as Uruguay may run smoothly under the
management Of Minister Stevens. In any
event, we feel assured that the govern
ment will have no occasion to regret the
selection which it has made in this case of
a representative abroad.
Mr.. Stevens is n native of Kennebec
County, in which he has spent the most of
his days. Receiving good academic
education, since increased by constant
exercise in active mental pursuits, he ear
ly engaged in the labors of christian
minister of the Universalist denomination.

sugar daily, and having realized for its owners
splendid fortunes.
