The PORTLAND LINE OF STEAhIERs.-This
long established and well-managed daily line
of steamers begins the new season under ia
vorable auspices, and with a determination to
furnish the public with satisfactory accommo-
dations in all respects. The favorite steamer
John Brooks, Captain Liscomb, which has
been retitted in substantial and even elegant
style, has just taken her place upon the line
with enlarged facilities for carrying passen-
gers, for which she has now excellent accom-
modations for five or six hundred, including
sixty roomy and well-ventilated staterooms.
The berths are supplied with the best fittings,
and are kept scruPulously clean, while every
thing about the boat is well arranged and kept
in the best order. This line has ALWAYS been
managed with great care and skill, and the
company has tine satisfaction of reporting
that during its long experience not boat has
been lost nor passenger injured. The Mon
treal, which is now being reft.ed, will soon
take her place on the line. With the adven. of
hot weather we have no doubt that travellers
and tourists will avail. themselves largely Of
the facilities which this line affords for making
a comfortable start upon their journey.-Bos-

A WELL arranged picture Of aa English
May Day, with Its rustic games, adds sest to
the observance Of festival which will always
be remembered in this country, although in
our climate its out-of-door sports are seriously
interferred with by unpropitious weather. But
we can enjoy the scenes within-doors, and the
young people at City Hall on Monday night,
who have been carefully trained in their parts
by lady whose childhood was passed in
"merrie England" and who possesses fine dra-
matte taste, will make the evening pass very
pleasantly for those who will give them their
patronage. They are Jealous workers in a
good cause. and love the labor; and ask that
their efforts may be successful. They promise
their friends full return for their money.

WE learn from j. A. Davis & Co., Com mis-
sion Merchants, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. that
since the opening of navigation there has been
more activity in the -four market and an adj
vance over lowest prices Of fully 25 cents per
Dbl. Also that the winter shipments of -four
to the larger Eastern markets have been most
ly made of No. 3 and ref wheats, which to
say the least, are hardly safe to keep through
warm weather. Flours, however, that are
made after this time from Nos. and 2 wheats
will keep sound and give satisfaction to con-
sumers.

SERIOUS Enthusiastically morning
Mr.. j. G. Pettengill, of the firm of Pettengill
& Fullam, was driving his Tiger, drawn by d
large powerful black horse, along Commercial
street, when the animal-who was a recent
purchase, and with whom Mr.. Pettengill had
not got fully acquainted-took fright at the
cars and started up the street full speed. In
attempting to pull the horse in the bit broke
in his mouth, and at the same moment, close
by the foot of High street, another jigger came
along from the opposite direction. Mr.. Petten-
gill tried to pull his horse out of the way to
the right and at the same time to avoid a little
child close. by. The consequence was the
wheel of the jigger jammed the child's foot up
against the curbstone and the next moment
the jigger of Mr.. Pettengill struck the other
iigger, throwing out Mr. P and separating the
horse and fore wheels belonging to the other
jigger from the body of the vehicle. Mr.. Pet.
tengilPs horse was Immediately caught, while
the other horse was caught on the other side
of Cape Elizabeth bridge. Mr. Pettengill re.
ceived a severe cash on the head and the team
ran over his arm and back. Mr.. Rufus Deer
ing got carriage and conveyed Mr.. p to his
residence and DR.. Weeks was summoned,
The doctor found no bones broken but the
sufferer complained of his back. The child
that was hurt was about three years old, a son
of Patrick Conlan, living at the corner of
High and Commercial streets. Mr.. Pettengill
was very anxious about the child and sent
down in the afternoon to hear how it was get
ting along. The child's foot was very much
swollen, but we understand no bones were
broken.

Yesterday morning The Division reas
sembled at 8 o'clock. S1OO were appropriated
to pay the expenses Of the delegates to the
National Division which meets at Newark, N.
j. in June. Delegates were appointed to the
various religious bodies in the State. The
next session is to be held in Bangor on the 9th
OF July. The following resolutions were
adopted:
Resolved That we commend the calling of a
state Temperance Convention to nominate a
Governor and to organize for a thorough and
efficient campaign.
heSolred That temperance men to be consist
ent must vote for such men and such only as
are In favor of the entire suppression of the
traffic.
Reso!Ged, That the representatives to the Ma
tlohai DIVISION be instructed to use their infu-
ence In favor OF such an administration of the
order as shall not in way discriminate against
color.
AS originally introduced the first of the above
resolutions favored the calling of a convention
to meet before the Republican convention at
Augusta. After debate tho resolution was
modified so as to read as above, it being under
stood as the feeling of the Grand Division that
the third party convention should not be call
ed till after the 18th of June This resolution as
passed was not satisfactory to all the members
and dissent was expressed by Messrs. Greeley
of Augusta, lately chairman of the third par
ty State Committee, Boothby of Waterville
and Morrell of the Gardiner Home Journal 1t
was supported by G. W. P. Tallman, John s.
Kimball of Bangor, and Rev. r. W. jackson.
In private conversation members expressed
the Oninion that if Mr. Perham was nominal
ed by the Republicans, the Temperance con-
vention would be held merely for the purpose
of ratifying his nomination. Mr.. Nys of Wa.

THE SUBJECT OF INSURANCE has become of
great Importance to nearly every person, and
still the ordinary stipulations and condition s
which are contained in a common policy, are
rarely known even to those who hold them,
till the burning of the insured property calls
the attention of the party interested to the
question of indemnity for his loss. The chap
ter on Insurance, is therefore, specially full
and complete, containing by way of illustra-
ton, numerous references to decided cases.
