Mr.. EDITOR; Having pc used your valuable
daily, and not noticeing the important trial in
the municipal court, which occurred on
Wednesday, viz Brick VS. Low, and think
ing perhaps you had no reporter present, l
propose to = We you few details of the affair.
Mr. Brick is an old and time honored citizen
as every one knonS. Mr.. Low is the proprie-
tor of a boot and shoe store. Low would not
trust Brick. Hence the quarrel. Brick used
insulting language, Low was not SO Low that
he could stand it, still he did until Brick fell
from Lows door to the opposite side Of the
sidewalk, said walk belonging to Low, being
in front Of his store. Able counsel was pro-
vided for both, but Mr.. Brick being an up
right moral citizen, it was perfectly natural
that the whole community would be on his
side. Hence Mr.. Low was defeated. Now
what we want is fair play, and Mr.. Low is
bound 10 have it as he has appealed to high
er court. where he thinks he can have justice
done him. FAIR PLAY.

luded to the force of education, and illustrated
his point by stating the manner in which it
had affected Prussia. The conflict that was
now going on in Europe, he was confident
would show the superiority of mind over
matter.
Hon. J. w. Bradbury, who taught the first
normal school in this country, responded most
heartily to the sentiments that had been ut
tered. Education is the grandest legacy that
can be left to posterity. 1t is the foundation
of science and good morals; and as matter
of economy, it is cheaper to educate scholar
than to support criminal. He made some
valuable practical suggestions to teachers,
parents and scholars, that should be needed
! HIS Excellency, Governor Chamberlain
who had accepted an urgent invitation to be
present, had arrived in the afternoon train,
and made his appearance in the school room
On being introduced, he said that it was not his
purpose to make "A formal speech but as he
had received many courtesies from The citi-
zens of Augusta, and had been treated al
most as a resident ior the past three years,
he felt a warmand lively interest in its advance
mcnt. He was glad to notice a growing in
terest all over the State in educational mat
ters, feeling favorable to a more real and
thorough education. Although we have in
times past been afflicted with poor school
houses, Maine has been abreast of all the
States in popular education. Somehow the
boys and girls, and men and women have
learned how to do things, and the records that
have been made in these poor, tunlbledown
school houses have gone out to the glory of
God and the good of man. While he would
not dttract from the past, he would rejoice
in the present, and look for grander results
in the future What 4 wonderful thing the
school house is Think of the kindlug of
great, noble and high purposes which start up
in the mind; how many earnest thoughts Of
parents linger round the precious ones gath
cred there; how diligently labors the careful
teacher. How much interest must gather
and grow within the walls of a school house.
Think of the little tcndrils that stretch tror,
youthful hearts out into the world of knowl
engc. to take in truths that are to be interwo-
ven into fair and beautiful lives. This thought
was expanded and illustrated. The Governor
closed by saying that this house is not a cold
and chetrlcss monument, but a living and
beautiful temple. 1t is like the favored statue
of old. of which it is said that when the rays
of the rising sun rested upon it, there came
forth sounds of harmony. SO shall this cdi-
fee thrill with music that shall live to tell in
the coming time.
! The intere. sting dcdicatory exercises closed
with prayer and bencdic,ion by Rev. c. F.
Penney.

of Generals and authorities here. All letters

in the lying Prussian organs in London, or
Journals courting Prussian patronage in New

Special to Herald.
London, Aug. 26. Onr special correspon-
dent at Bar la Due, writes that Bazaine is
surrounded by Prussian troops. and is ex
pecled to be compelled to capitulatc, his
troops being short OF provisions.
Special to Tribune.
The best information about Bazaine's army
which q German official telt gram now proves
that he is shut up in Metz, and makes his
strength about 10000. McMahon's army
cannot exceed 100000 really troops, the re-
mainder being raw levies.
A number of soldiers under arr st in
different parts Of France for light offences,
have been pardoned and will immediately join
their regiments.
Sixty thousand dollars have been received
from French residents in the United States
for the wounded, and a large sum from Con-
stantinople.
Accounts from the places now occupied by
the Prussians, show that the hostility of the
inhabitants is increasing, and is encouraged
bv the Mobile guards and sharpshooters who
attack small bands of Prussians, killing and
wounding many.
The Provincial Journals say that the Prus-
slams increase the anger and hatred of the
peasants by disecratiug the Catholic churches.
Several rich prizes have been taken by the
fleets in the channel of the Baltic.
The latest news from Strasbourg, is that
SIX persons were killed, and sixteen houses
burned, and the Cathedral slightly damaged.
The people take refuge in their cellars. The
fire from the town is killing large number
of the 6eseigers. As many spies still lurk in
the city. the commandant has ordered the
soldiers to shoot any persons seen on the
roofs.
Letters from Rheims, and one received via.
Belgium, from the French camp report that
Bazaine gained great advantage in the bat
ties on the 23d by. capturing many guns and
prisoners.
