AROOSTOOK.
To the Editor Of the Keane6ec Journal:

4
AUGUSTA, March 30, 1870.
The report of the Commissioners on the
Settlement of the Public Lands, together with
the discussions in the Senate and House of
Representatives on the Aroostook railroad
charter, have elected many inquiries in re-
gard to the climate, soil and local advantages
of that county. Being myself practical
farmer, and taking lively interest in agri-
culture as well as in our public domain,
propose to give few statistical facts and
figures as gathered from the records of the
State departments and from personal observa-
tor, being well acquainted in the county and
having twice traversed the entire region from
the Pcnobscot to the French settlements on
the ST. John Aroostook county comprises
POP towns and townships, each miles square,
besides a number of Cores on the Upper ST.
John containing about GS00 square miles, OK
tending l2S miles from north to south, and
100 from east to west, being almost as large
as the State of Massachusetts. Her latitude
will average about 46 degrees, and consider
ing her altitude her climate will compare IA
vorably with that of Vermont. Her summers
are warm; her winters clear, cold and bracing;
acknowledged by all to be the most healthy
-country in New England. The surface of the
country is undulating, the swells covered
with a hard wood growth; the sugar maple
and yellow birch predominating, while in the
intervening runs are to be found the most
beautiful cedars. The soil is of slate and
lime stone formation, rich in vegetable mold
peculiarly adapted to the growth of wheat and

The FtTtnE FoREsHADowED. The
New York Herald has an article giving
an analysis Of the vote ut the recent
elecslonal and showing how the electoral
college will stand in 1872, provided the
States named vote then as they have
voted already. According to this table
in thirty five States, the Democrats have
l64 electoral votes, and the Republicans
148. or six majority for the Democrats,
with two States, mississippi and Texas,
which will probably be equally balanced,
not included. Thus it will be seen that
the Democrats at this moment have nc.

Presidential election-a triumph that
cannot possibly be eaverted except by the
restoration of calmness and moderation
and wisdom to the connsels of tho Re-
publican party, if even then.

A New PARTY MOVEMENT The Chi
csgo Tribune (Republican) is out in q
long editorial in favor of the formation
OF q new party on the "Civil Service"
and Revenue Reform" platform. It is
said that this movement is inspired by
Senator Trumbuli, Republican, who is
part owner of the Tribune, and who re-
Gently made strong speech in favor of
''clvil service" reform. It is rumored
that Trumbull's friends propose to put
him forward as the presidential candi-
get the Northwest committed to the
scheme before the time for the presiden-
tial nomination in 1872. Senator Trum-
bull and the Tribune are said to be of
opinion that the Republican party is
about to disinte CRATE, and that it cannot
elect its candidate for the Presidency on
it's present platform.

The New York Journal Of Commerce,
commenting upon the victory achieved
in Missouri by the Reformers, says that
the objects they have in view are con-
fined to no State, and that great numbers
OF the rising young Republicans of the
West are with them heart and soul. OF
the Democrats it says: cat the very ont
set the immeuse Democratic minority of
the Northern and Western Southern
States stand ready to transfer, upon sat
1sfactory terms, nearly their whole
strength to the movement. All that is
necessary, therefore, to organize a new
party capable, soy of electing President
in 1872. is for a comparatively small
force OF the Republican army to step out
manfully from the ranks and meet and
join the Democratic masses coming to-
wards them half way"

pondent of the New York World relates
the following as one of the curiosities of
the war:
Last night. I received from one of
your correspondents in Paris, the most
extraordinary thing in the way of O
newspaper that have ever seen. Your
correspondent had cut all the news CO.
lumns of the Paris journals of Novem-
Der, had pasted them together, and then
photographed them, reducing what filed
scarcely more than an inch and half
square. This he then forwarded by bal
loon mail, and although, to the unas-
sisted eye, it's contents were undecipher-
able. by the aid of very powerful mag
!nifying glass and strong light. it could
be read.
