PoTAToEs.-Mr. Moses Ell. Hussey of North
Berwick known throughout New England as
"The Potato Man" is on hand at the York
County Fair with a great variety of his cele-
brated Murphies. Mr.. Hussey makes speci-
atty of raising potatoes and has introduced in
this State some of the moss celebrated varieties
now raised. In 1869 he paid $50 for one bush
ell ofBreesee's Prolific and raised 145 1-2 bush
els therelrom. The quality was excellent.
This variety received the first premium at the
New England Fair holden at Portland, and a
ailver medal from theMassachusetts Horticul-
tural Society s. Exhibition in 1869. Mr. Hus-
sey exhibits fine lot of what is called "King
OF the Earlies'' which ripen about week ear
lier than the Early Rose. He also raises the
Early Mohawk, Early Rose, EARLY Snowfall.
Peerless, Excelsior and Climax.

| TO the Citizens Of Portland and vicinity.
For the second time e beg to call the attention
of thd generous and patriotic, to the necessity OF
Propery aeysIng plans to care for the needy sol
immediate vicinity. Last year a public appeal for
aid was made by this Post, and The contributions
received in answer to it were SD lar beyond our ex-
pectatons, that we were enabled to render assist
ance in many cases. where the applicants them
| selves had not dared to expect cur aid. Our plan
is simply this: The city is divided into districts,
and to each district is assigned efficient commit
ZEE wnose guy IL ta Is u vs, n destitute
and orphans OF those who fell in the late war, and
to provide as far as possible, for the actual neces
| sites OF all deserving cases. Our Charity extends
to persons outside our Order as ace as 10 those aho
! are members of it.
| We propose, IN this way, to dispense with the
| system of street begging and paupersm, to which
| our late comrades in arms ght otherwise In MANY
cases be subjected. In fact we wholly discounte-
| nance and condemn the system of personal and
| professional charity seeking, which has become
prevalent among this class in some of our larger
| cities, where no other means have bee provided
for their aid. The Post has two distinct funds one
| being used exclusively for contingent expenses
I and the other, known as the Charity Fund.- being
used in purchasing supplies for needy soldiers and
| lieir families. In most cases provisions, clothing
and other neeessaries, are purchased and dstribu-
Ted with great care re-; and rigid economy We rarely
| provisent use of money, and are enabled to pur-
chase supplies at rates far below the retail price,
when CT thing or provisions intrusted to u.s.
see that they are properly distributed In order,
however, to do this and to relieve the large number
OF cases of actual suffering and distress which
come under our notice, we are obliged to have a
considerable amount OF money, as well as the
other articles mentioned.
There are In Portland, to-day, nearly 500 re-
turned soldiers, $50 soldiers orphans and 1870 SOL
diers' widows. The following briet exhibit will
give general idea of the work we have thus far

Where ear Grain will Go.

The st. Louis Republican says /:
"Rumors were current upon change
Saturday, that large orders had been
received from France for the purch.
ase of hay at this point, the figures
being variously given at 10000 to
So 900 tons. The report, however,
could not be verified, and doubtless
grew out of the reported failure of
the grain crop of France, and of the
possible requirements Of the war,
losing nothing by the dulness of
hay i'm the market and the difficulty
OF an immediate sale of stocks for
home consumption, 1t 10 not i'm
probable, however, that In case the
war I'm Prussia should continue for
any considerable length Of time,
France would send TO the MissIssip-
pi for forage, but we doubt if any
large orders could be executed at sat
isfactory prices. 1t is generally con-
ceded that, although the crop Of the
present season as n whole, and espec-
tally In Iowa, 10 below the general
requirement of home consumption,
the stock Of old hay held over at in
terror points is sufficient to make up
the deficiency. Should this home
demand be supplemented by large
foreign demand, the deficiency OF
the present crop would be used to
urge prices above an exporting point,
rendering 1t difficult, II not IMPOSE
BILE, to I'LL orders.
