A BEAUTIFUL TuoUGHr.-It may be truth
1ully said that the greatest OF all blessings is
health, for without it tho joys vouchsafed are
for lifc's enjoyment and pursuits, to the
young and old, to tho rich and poor. Are you
in search OF wealth? Health is necessary
or what avail would these be without health?
The beauties of spring, the song Of birds, the
deep. blue Sky, the rolling ocean, all have Il
poetic fascination which charms only the
healthy in mind and body; but to the sick
what are these but mockcrios. The body dis

ATTORNEY GENERAL REED.

If the Bangor Wing were to give its at
tention to criticising the arguments of
lawyers before juries, made in the heat OF
sharp rivalry and competition, it would
have task as endless as that of Sisyphus.
When Judge Walton instructed the jury
in the late murder trial, that they must
give no attention to the pleas of the law
yers, that the latter acted us advocates OF
their respective causes, and would not if
placed upon the Bench utter the same
opinions as those they offered at the Bar,
he spoke with knowledge and yeracity.
Now we do not know whether Attorney
General Reed approves in his cooler mo-
ments all the sentiments which he spoke
in his argument for the conviction Of Hos
well, but we see no reason why he should
be made an exception to the rule which
allows an advocate the widest latitude.
What he might have said about an mag
mary or other case not in accordance with
law or fact or sound Judgment, was as
subject to the keen scrutiny and correc-
tion of the Judge and the sober sense of
the jury as any extravaganza his oppo-
nents might utter. lie was simply an adj
yocate, not the Judge nor the least part
of the jury. That he upheld the law OF
the State strenuously is witnessed by the
fact that he contended forcibly for the
conviction of the prisoner Of the highest
degree OF murder and the intiiction of the
heaviest penalty known to our statutes
While he was prosecuting suit with all
his ability for IA verdict of murder in the
first degree, against a defence based sole
" upon the idea of mitigation orremission
of punishment to the prisoner because
adultery maddened him to do the deed,
it is rather curious that under such cir
eumstances, "a few sentences in his plea
should be the basis upon which he is
charged with looking lenienfly upon the
crime OF murder for seduction or adultery.

NEU PUBLICATIONS..


One of the richest books of the season, rich
in exquisite humor, is a book just published
by Fields, Osgood & Co. with the title MY
Summer in Garden of which Charles
Dudley Warner is the author While the
volume opens with the idea that much is to be
told of gardening, of the ways and means of
managing to best advantage the crops to be
raised, whether of flowers or onions, grapes
or cabbages, there is the smallest possible
amount of matter of that sort in it, but in
stead the largest stock of pleasant reading,
wise things said in the strangest way, queer
groupings of ideas, and knowledge of human
nature displayed beautifully. We would not
advise a gardener to buy this book as an aid
to horticulture. but we hardly know who
could read without enjoying or being the bet
ter for it. Pierce has it.
The most elegant gift book of the season
upon which we have cast our eye is one pub
lished by ID. Appleton & Co. 1t is Bryant's
''Song of the Sower," illustrated with forty
two engravings, printed on heavy tinted pa
per, gilt edged, and bound in most attractive
form. The illustrations are beautiful speci-
mems of art, representing in the happiest man.
ner the images of the poetic mind to which
they are adapted. For Christmas present
it is nice article.
The Atlantic Almanac for 1871 is luxury
in the almanac line, of which its calenders and
records and all the old features that were the
country's delight, are hidden by the illustra-
tons and other excellencies of art displayed
in the work. There are fine cuts of Tenny-
son, Longfellow, Dickens, Carlyle, Nilsson
and Patti, to please the literary and musical,
and life pictures to please everybody. Here
knowledge and beauty, the culture of head
and heart, go hand in hand, and cast into the
background the grim reaper that used to sig
Nifty the passing of time.
Pierce has it for sale.
Another volume of poems by John G..
Whittier is published by Fields, Osgood &
Co., entitled miriam and Other Poems. p"
The principal poem is ''Miriam," the pith of
which is the incubation of charity or to for
give as we hope to be forgiven. The poet and
his friend wandered one Sabbath, after meet
ing, to a hilltop, and sitting there began to
discuss the duties of man in this life and his
hopes of the future one. The poet took the
most charitable view of mankind and the
broadcast view of the hereafter, and told an
eastern tale to enforce his idea of charity, in
which Miriam, Jewess, teaches Shah Akbar,
her royal master, practical lesson in the
way of forgiving an offending fellow mortal.
This poem is clothed in all the graces and
gentleness of Whittier, and its true christian
spirit is as prominent as the poetic beauties
which mark the verse. This with the mis-
cellaneous poems makes handsome volume,
beautifully printed, and attractive outwardly
as well as inwardy.

STATE NEHS.

Some OF the Waldo county hay and potato
buyers have transferred themselves to the
stations on the railroad, where they are doing
a brisk business. Eight car loads of produce
came in to Belfast on Monday, one of which
contained 400 bushels ofpotatoes, which paid
freight from Thorndike.
1t is about time for boys to break through
the ice and get drowned. The wicked editor
of the Belfast journal contempates offering a
premium of new pair Of skates to the first
boy that will afford him a first class local item
of the kind.

Last Saturday afternoon the wife of AL

in flames. The child was SO burned that it
died the next morning.
The enterprising proprietors of the Kenne-

The secretary recommends improvements

The secretary recommends improvements
in the navy yards, which have been neglected
and again urges the removal of the large
working wards from the neighborhood of large
cities. He recommends experiments to per
feet the submarine torpedo which he regards
as a most important agent in naval defense,
and desires some improvements and additions
to increase the efficiency of the photographic
office. In ordnance he says, there is no rea-
son to believe we are yetbehind other nations,
but large sums are expended by them IN ex-
periments with cannon and guns OF all cali
bers, and as the inventive genius OF our coun-
try is much engaged in the Improvement OF
arms, and new suggestions, some of much APP
parent merit, are constantly offered, the sec
rotary hopes that suitable sum may be al
lowed for testing them.
The pension roll on the lst of November,
1870, was as follows =
1868 invalids, annually receiving Sl23,Ol4
1912 widows and children annually
receiving S266,o52
500 persons, receiving total of $3.50, 04C
The whole actual expenditure of the depart
ment and the service chargeable to the navy
appropriations, since the date of the last re-
port and up to the lst of December, is SIS,
o.
only apparently, increased by the payments
of adjudicated prize money and the bountes
given by Congress to the heirs lost in the
Oneida, which sums, though chargeable to
other funds, will appear in the general sum
of naval expenditure. The actual expendi-
ture of the year ending December l, 1869,
was $50, 0Sl,2o5. This shows decrease in
the expenditure of the last year from that Of
the previous year of 81 ,096, 10. The appro-
priations for the current fiscal year ending on
the 30th day of June next, amount in the ag-
gregate to Sl9,994 ,637 The expenditure,
since the beginning of the fiscal year is within
that proportion of the appropriations applica-
BILE to the five months which have passed,
and shows a decrease during that period of
50, ASS, 5S5 from the expenditure ofthe cores
ponding five months of the last year.
The estimate for the general expenses of
the service for the fiscal year ending June
80, 1872, amounts to 500 ,3l7, and to this
is added the sum Of $3.50, 100 as necessary for
permanent Improvements at the several navy
yards and stations.
During the last session of Congress the fol-
lowing resolution was submitted to the House
of Representatives by the committee on for
eign affairs -
Resolred, That it is clearly the duty Of our
naval officers on foreign stations to render all
reasonable assistance to the diplomatic officers
of the United States in the discharge of their
duties, and that a refusal or neglect to render
such assistance when required, or any dis
courtesy by such naval officers toward such
diplomatic officers should be the subject Of
inquiry and punishment by the Navy Depart
ment.
The secretary fully concurs in the views
here expressed, and has enforced them in his
regulations and orders to the commandants
of the national vessels and fleets.

COST or LIVING.

The Providence Journal has been ex-
aiming the subject of the present cost of
living, and has come TO the conclusion that
this country il not alone in the rise OF
prices or the increased expense of living
within the last twenty years. There has
BEEN" says the Journal. "a general rise OF
prices over the civilized world. though 1t IS
by no means the same in all countries.
This Is perhaps in part to be ascribed to
