Reliable information from the South
Is to the effect that the crops Tor this
year areunusally good. The grain crops
are already secured, and are very
large Last year the people OF most
OF the Gulf States imported grain from
the North at high prices,-corn selling
as high as 81 - bushcl Dealers are
now offering to contract for the delivery
of new corn at eighty-fve cents. Wheat
is selling at Atlanta at 81 %, and il is
thought that the State Of Georgia will
have a considerable surplus for export.
This condition OF things will be great
relief TO the South The cotton-crop,
moreover, promises 10 he larger than any
that has been raised in twenty wears

BRIDGToN, June 2, 1870.
To the Editor ofthe Press:
have heretofore given you in slices, some
idea of the business of this town. Eotwith-
standingt here are four large wooden mills, three
saw mills, furniture mandatory, a sash and
blind manuiactory, carriage mandatory and
several other establishments requiring power
on the stream, not more than one-half the
power is employed. 1t is in contemplation,
when business reviyes, to erect cotton factory
below the wOolen mill of Messrs. Perry and
Taylor. There are also two exec lent privi-
leges, unoccupied, just above their mill. The
mills are nearly all running full time, although
manufactures complain that the margin is
rather small, but some of them coined money
during the war and have sufficient surplus to
carry them over much tighter times than they
will see, without any emolument. Mr. Rufus
Gibbs, the pioneer in manufac turing in this
town, is now about 10 years of age, and yet
there are but few young men can shoe row.
with him. He is the first man stirring in the
morning and is actively engaged all day. He
has taken the contract to build the Congrega.
tional Church in this village for $4,000. He
personally superintends the saving of the lum-
Der, framing, laying the foundation, trenching,
&c. He will navigate as small LOG over as
rough place as almost any Of our lumbermen
Lie Hfln VI huluS GlDDS G Sons have put q
circular saw into their mill, which cuts out
1000 feet long lumber in an hour, taking the
logs as they come. This firm is getting out
$50 blankets day which will compare favor
ably with those made in any part of the coun-
try. They are sold by Parker & Wilder, Bos-
ton. Messrs. Perry d Taylor are getting out
fancy cassimeres, cloakings, reDeants and
such other goods of the kind as the market de-
mands. They have two mills one of which is
about $50 feet long. When in full operation
they get out about 4SO0 yards of goods per
week. Messrs. Fogg & Billings are putting in
about 4S0 sides of leather week, at their tan
| cries here and at Bolsters mills. They use
about 1900 cords of bark year.
| BUSINESS.
Messrs. Davis, Stearns & Burnham have
purchased the Dry Goods and Grocery store of
| Messrs. Gibbs & Sons and ore doing an exten-
| sive business. Mr. Henry o. Moses, Apothe-
cary and Bookseller, has been increasing his
stock to meet the constantly increasing de-
mand. Mr. Moses was formerly in the estab-
| lishment of II. III. Hay OF Portland He is
| evidently obtaining an extensive business and
| the confidence of the community. His store
| is well arranged and furnished with a large
| and well selected assortment of goods usually
| kept in such an establishment.
ACCIDENT.
Mrs. Simon Burnham of this town was
| thrown from wagon on Thursday last and
| quite seriously injured. although it was
thought by DIR. Webb, who was Immediately
| called, that no bones were broken. G..
