Upon Dix Island, containing but from forty
to fifty acres, the most extensive operations
are now progressing. 1t is owned and worked
by the Dix Island Granite Company, of which
the late Horace Beals, Esq, was member,
and for many years its energetic Superinten-
dent. 1t was from this quarry that the gran
tic was furuishe1 for the new extension to
the L. S. Treasury Department, which is pro-
nounced by the best judges TO be the most
perfect and beautiful granite in America. a
force of two hundred and fifty men are now
employed upon the work of quarrying stone
for the New York City Post Office and Court
House. They have also recently commenced
Cspitol at Albany, \. Y, now in process Of
erection. which when completed will be the
mos, magnificent structure in the country.
The granite worked upon all Of the above
islands TO great extent is dressed there and
boxed and shipped to its destination. thus
giving coustan, employment and good wages
to firs,-ela>s stone cutters. All of the quar-
ries are caSv ef access for the largest vessels,
aaa the facilities for loading are such that the
transportation Of stone of any dimensions re-
Quiccd can be done easily. Perhaps bat few
visitors from Maine to the National Capital
have thought as they gazcd ppon and admired
that noble granite stTucturc--the Treasury
nepaytmcnt--that the massive columns, pill
asters. but;veSses, caps, etc, which support
and aioru ,he eaifice, we're transported from
the ate ot Maine. Bat when We are called
upon in this State TO transport granite from
the Penohscot to New Orleans ana thence up
the Mississippi river seventeen hundred miles
to St. Louis, we can but conclude that our
granite is in good demand and that the future
business prospects of our State in that respect
can but be bright and promising. +.

DIX ISLAND, Me, August 70, 1870.
To the Editor of the Journal
1t is doubtless the fact that but few people
revenue that our State derives from the work
ing of its granite quarries. In recent num-
Der Of your paper noticed description of
the amount of granite work being done by
Messrs. Bodwell & Wilson at Hallowell,
which has induced me to briefly describe that
class of work now being carried on exten-
sively upon the islands of Penobscot Bay.
Upon Fox Island $50 called, embracing the
incorporated town of Vinalhaven, are located
several extensive quarries, which have been
worked to some extent for the last twenty
years, but for few years past very exten-
sively indeed The granite is of a superior
quality and fine color, easily quarried and
cheaply dressed, thus finding a ready mar
ket, and will doubtless ntinuc to do so for
many years, as the supply seems to be almost
inexhaustible. Part of the granite required
for the New York Post Office, the Masonic
Temple at Philadelphia, and the massive
bridge across the Mississippi at ST. Louis, be-
sides stone fronts, monuments, etc, has Tor
the last fall and winter furnished and is at
present furnishing employment for upwards
of three hundred men.
There is also another quarry recently open
ed by Gen. Davis Tilson Co., on an island
adjacent to Fox Island, known as Hurricane
The stock is said to be of fine quality, and
through the energy displayed by the proprie-
tors in preparing for operations, it can safely
be predicted that very extensive work will
soon be carried on there.
About seven miles below the city of Rock
land are located the Spruce Head quarrles,
the proprietors of which are Messrs. Cobb,
Wight & Case. The granite there is also OF
good quality, and in great demand. force
of about one hundred men are there constant
ly employed upon works in various parts OF
the country.

that Mr II. having received call to become

thought he could be more useful to accept it,
The council advised the dissolution Of the

towed to Norfolk and moored off the Navy
