The Sabbath Schools connected with the
Universalist Societies of Hallowell, Winthrop
and North Monmouth, met in beautiful
grove in Manchester last Thursday. (Fear of
the Railroad slaughter however compelled
them to seek the shady grove where they could
be exempt from the criminal carelessness of
salaried officials The party consisted ofabout
five hundred, and was very pleasantly enter
tanned by Rev's. Messrs. Bosserman of Win
throp and Paine of Hallewell, in well chosen
remarks, vocal music by the several choirs
and by short and facetious speeches by Capt.
+. Perley and May of Winthrop, Knights of
Hallowell and the Sub-Editor of the Lewis
ton Journal the latter informing the assem-
blage very solemnly that he had eaten more
that day for lunch than for many days previ-
Gus, and really hoped this annual picnic would
come twice year. After the emptying of the
the baskets and the deyouering of the goodies
the children were informed by the President
of the day, DIR. j. B. Fillerbrown, that they
had the freedom of the grove for their pas
time, which was improved by the indulgence
in the games of ring quoits, crsquet, copen-
hagen, &C., to their hearts content. All re-
turned home with joyful hearts giving thanks
for the beautiful day, and that the occasion
had been one not only to improve the parents
but to make the little ones supremacy happy.

Election Troubles in Santa Fee.

Santa Fee, N. NJ, 8. The Post yesterday
had the following correspondence from Le-
mezilla, in the southern part of this terri
tory: "The election excitement in this val
ley eliminated to-day in one of the most fear
full atfrays ever witnessed here. 1t is no ex-
aggeration to say that the plaza has been
literally drenched in human blood. At the
present writing, Aug. 81, it is known that 81
persons have been killed, while it is estimat-
ed the wounded will reach as high as 80 or
40. From o'clock this afternoon until six
the plaza resounded with pistol shots and
groans. For Is minutes the fire was inces-
SAINT, and continued during the rest of the
hour. The republican and democratic par
ties had each selected to-day as the most
suitable time for grand demonstration of the
campaign, and at an early hour this morning
both parties commenced preparing. The
leaders were evidently DESTROYS of avoiding
disturbances and respective parties formed
in profession and passed each others place
of meeting without an outbreak, and nothing
happened until after the meetings adjourned,
and the procession reformed, and at p. NJ.
both parties met in the plaza, exchanging
vivas. A pistol shot was fred, when a gen.
eral fight ensued. Men, women and children
hurried to their houses but the fight was kept
up from windows and housetops, the dead
and wounded falling on all sides.
Hon. Marsh Gliding, new governor of
this territory, arrived Thursday and was in
augurated yesterday. He was serenaded last
evening by one of the largest assemblages
ever known in this city.

The Roger. Defalca.Ion.

Further developments have established the
fact that Mr.. Rogers has defaulted the Pejep-
scot Bank out Of larger sum than at first
supposed. A statement of account received
from the Bank of Redemption, Boston on
last Tuesday, by the Pejepscot Bank, shows
that Mr.. Rogers had overdrawn to the amount
of 50, 1861. Some checks sold by him have
been returned, which the hank will redeem
so that the total of deficit, as ascertained BIZ
the officers af the Bank up to Tuesday, is
S42,3l9.9l. The capital of the Bank is S5o,-
600. Individuals will lose, how much cannot
now be determined, through checks given by
Col. Rogers, he having no funds on deposit;
in fact he drew out on Thursday of last week
the sum of $500 standing to his credits
MIR. Francis Adams of Bath, formerly re-.
siding in Brunswick, was joint Trustee and
Executor of the Gardiner Green estate, of
Topsham, and funds to the amount of several
thousand dollars were deposited in a private
package in the safe of the Bank. From that
package are missing two government bonds,
amounting to nearly or quite 81 500. One
other marketable bond is untouched, and of
course unsaleable property is all safe. If
these two bonds do not turn up the loss will
doubtless fall upon Mr.. Adams Mr.. Rogers
made over his property to the Bank, estimated
at from $4,000 to $4,000. Mr. Rogers re.
ceived salary of $1,000 from the Bank and
$500 from the College. He gives no infor-
nation to the Bank officers; he will not dis
close where the money has gone nor when it
went To Mr.. Adams he gave no satisfactory
information, when he visited him in Jail to
ascertain what disposition he had made of the
two Green bonds.

There has been some considerable Boosting
in the newspapers about the enormous height
to which some varieties of corn have attained
the past season. Some have claimed the
ownership of corn eight feet high, and thought
that could not be beat. We have corn in our
garden in this city ten feet in height to the
top of the spindles, and still growing. If the
frost only holds off and good corn weather
continues, we don't know how we shall be
able to get at the ears when they ripen. We
procured the seed from travelling agent.
The variety is known as the Branching Pop
Corn. Ears of fair size have formed, and
should the season be long as that of some
years we shall have some ripened corn of this
variety; but from present appearance we
should say that the variety is not specially
adapted to this climate.

Letter From senator COnckling.

Troy, N. Y, 2. A letter from Senator
Conckling to Hon. j. II. Griswold, pub
lished this afternoon, urges unity and har.
mony in the republican party in the ensu ing
campaign. He alluded to the re- nomination
of Gen. Grant, and says that the path of the
republicans, now that the State is given over
to a rascal, prey to horde of thieves, who
infesting our chief city, disgrace humanity
and mildew the commonwealth by their pes
tilential profigacy. These plunderers have
seized upon the State government, legislature
and all the municipal agencies of the city of
New York, and hitherto they have tempered
with party organizations, also debauching and
controlling them. The question facing us is
whether this degrading flagititians sway shall
cease or be perpetuated and fortified anew.

Doubtless all who have taken seats on the
years, have had an opportunity to examine
an ingenious little continuance for keeping
conductors out of temptation, in the shape of
an excess ticket. If passenger fails to get
his ticket he must pay twenty five cents extra.
He demurs, but the conductor is inexsrable.
The money is paid, and the compressed lips
show his indignation at the harshness of treat
ment. The conductor slowly draws from his
pocket a long, narrow book, about three
inches by ten, tears out a marked section of
leaf, leaving a duplicate. He punches
several holes in it and hands it to the passen-
ger. At the top is the name of the road
4'The Maine Central Railroad" Just over
the heading is row of numbers, to II,
standing for the month Of the year, while at
the bottom of the ticket are the days of the
month marked in like manner. The ticket is
'sgood for this day and train only" which
simply means good for any length of time,
although it will positively not be received at
any other time" The stations on the read
are ranged in columns, opposite the name be-
ing placed the company's number of the town
or station, and the passengers "will please
see that the conductor punches out the sta
tons from and to which they ride" He also
punches out the month and the day of the
month. The only consolation the passenger
has for all this performance is contained in

Accident at Sea.

Savannah, 2. The bark Ada Caster from
Philadelphia, bound to Havana, with cargo
of 5l2 tons coal and assorted merchandise,
encountered a terrific gale on the 25th OF
August, which continued till the 2Sth. The
masts were cut away to ease the vessel, and
by constant work she was pumped out on
the afternoon of the latter day. The wind
blew from the east with thick heavy rain, and
heavy sea running, so that it was impossi-
BILE to manage the vessel and she drifted to
the westward. In this situation she was
fallen in with by the steamship liberty, 80
miles southeast of Tybee, which place she
reached Wednesday in tow of the steamer.
The bark is badly strained, and will have to
be repaired at Savannah. She is 435 tons, and
was built at Harpswell, Me-, in 1862, at a
cost of $22,0 900. She is owned by the captain
and others, and is partially insured. Her
cargo is not known to be insured; part Of the
freight is insured. The Liberty left Roads
on Wednesday night for her destination.

Richmond, Me-, Sept. 3. This, Sunday
morning, not far from midnight, large and
destructive fire broke out in this village.
1t was first discovered in a shoe stitching
building on White street, owned by Scion
White. 1t spread rapidly to Main street, on
the south side; it swept from Scion Whites
house to L. d. Lamson's.
Cinders were carried long distance, and
ignited many buildings in this way.
Three dwellings on Church street and two
building on White street, were fired and
totally destroyed. Over thirty different
buildings caught fire and when the men had
to leave the engines to protect their own
property, their places we're filled by ladies
who yielded their power to the brakes, and
for over an hour worked heroically.
Loss over twenty thousand dollars; in
sured for eleven thousand.
The origin of the fire is unknown. 1t was
not under subsection until after daybreak this
morning. The following are among the
principal leaders:
Scion White, shoe stitching factory.
