DEAR l.DITOR :

IIhStdliI
DEAR Enron:
1ou ask me 10 remember the CdL}0-
ntm during my Heightened soiourr
abroad. 1t is impossible TO forget it,
for it brings 10 me, us it does probably
TO many another of Caledonia's wander
ing children, n weekly freight OF local i'll
telligence which stirs agrceabIy the mem
cries of auld lang sync.
To write of England, with a hope of
offering anything fresh to an American
newspaper, requires degree of hardi-
hood which would be rare even in a
professional Bohemian, and to which |
dare not aspire. But there is Il spot
here which is perhaps less known TO
Americans than almost any other in
England, and which possesses many
points OF interest and attraction. BY
your leave, therefore, | will attempt Il
brief description of this venerable water
InG-place, promising at the outset that
my duty, so tar as historical records are
concerned, is that of mere compiler,
and | shall not scruplc to quote bodily
from whatever author may fall in my
way.

IL By ITS ncarncs-, and the promi
hence OF many of the victims, the rail-
road disaster at Revere oycrshadows all
other similar disasters in New ENGLAND
since a train full of medical men were
plunged into an open draw at Norwalk.
The details are too hurrid TO read, and
yet they are something the public should
know. Up to Tuesday NIGHT thirty-tllree
had died, and in the eases of several
more in hospital, there was little hope OF
recovery bIrlusc of injuries from inhal-
mo steam The most searching invcsl
ration is goin. on to ascertain who was
10 blame for this awful crime; but we
have no Great faith that they will fix
very definitely upon any one man as gull
ty above all others. From the progress
of the investigation thus far, it would
seem that the superintendent was ncgIi-
cent in not giving more specific directions
10 the depotmastcr; that the latter was
blamcworlhy in not informing the engin-
Ger of the express train that the accommo
dalion went out half an hour late, and
had only fifteen minutes the start OF him;
that the engineer of the express was care
less in running i"to IA train which show
Cd the customary tail-lightS, which, rs
one witness said, could be seen half
mile and That the engineer and conduct
needless in dallying along Oh time that
they knew, or should have known, be-
longed TO the train which was following
them.
But the real cause of this accident, as
Of nine-tenths Of all railway casualties,
is in our system Of railroading. Wendell
Phillips said some very sensible things ut
the Indignation mectin" held at Swamp
scott Monday night. He said the acct
dent was no accident, it was murder.
But the fault lies in our railroad system
1t lies in the community. We yet al

ii prolific cause Of murder. All of us
are Imprcgnated through and through |
with carelesSness OF human life. All can
recollect the time when, with an utter
DISREGARD for human life, the railroads did |
all their business with Il single track. |
That time has passed, but even now our
railroads, compared with those of Eu-
rope, are not protected. As trains here
are run, every life lost is deliberate
murder. Our depots are another source
OF danger, the passengers crOwding and
rolling over each other in their haste to
get into the cars. A we'll conducted de
pot would secure perhaps fifty per cent
less exposure 10 danger, and so every
item of our railroad management might
be instanccd. The impres,ibIc haste of
the tr;,velin" public must he @ratifcd.
There must he no barriers the rates
must be open, the bars let down and the
American people permitted to rush

Several more hnrrid accidents upon
railroads, are added, this week, 10 the
long catalogue of similar events. Care
less conductors and engineers, rottun and
irail bridges, seem TO he the usual cause.
There must be something wrung, else il
would he hardly possible that 50 many
trightiul scenes should occur in such
quick succession, and at Il season of the
year when travelling by rail Is considered
the safest. 1t Is quite time that there
should be Il radical reform in the man
agemcnt of our railroads, or the people
will be driven to adopt some other mode
of travelling, or stay ut home. Such
needless disregard of, and destruction of
life, cannot be tolerated To a much Great
cr extent We have sometimes thought
juries had awarded cxtrava@ant dam
ages TO persons injured 10y careless man
agcmcnt Of railroads, but ii needs no
large share OF foresight TO predict that
unless such events become less frequent
than Of late, DAMAGES will be four fold
hi9hcr in the future. And that will be
right. Either that, or more, or hang
the guilty ones

Until very recently molasses has been
imported in very large quantities at
Portland. The course of trade has now
mainly changed, the principal West In
dia houses having established branches
at New York. Two steamers per week
from New York enable the Portland
dealer to place his stock in store for q
very small advance upon New York pri-
ceS. Sugar-boiIing has likewise been UNI
in Portland This Is now nearly all
done in Cuba, the products following the
route Of the molasses, rs above noticed.
Sugars are still refined in Portland, of
the best quality. All the products OF
the cane could be bought at us low rate
in Portland as Boston, even if no spec
ial circumstances were in favor of Port
land. SIch circumstances there are.
All expenses for storing, handling and
cooEcra"r are less in Portland than in
Boston. The carriage of IL ho"shrad Of

SALT AND FISH.

Maine has 4 LARGE shipping interest
Vessels are constantly coming home TO
repair and rciit, and So TO an important
extent at Portland, whose capacious dry
dock and ample stores of required ma
terials make it an unsurpassed point for
the purpose. a frequent cargo of these
return ships is salt, taken for a mere
triilc and instead Of ballast. Salt ac-
cordlngly can be bought as low ut Port
land as anywhere on the coast
The shore line of Maine including all
lis windings is between two and three
thousand miles in length. Naturally a
favorite occupation of the people is fish
ing. Portland is the grand depot of
these seafarcrs. 1t is accordingly as a
market for fish, not surpassed on the
Atlantic coast. Boston takes grcat
quantity Of fish from Portland every
year. For all the staple varieties of
dried and picked fish Portland is I'M
questionably better point for buyers
than Boston. The principal dealers cs-
innate their expenses from two to three
per cent, OF their gross annual sales less
than are incurred in Boston by concerns
of eqnal business

First ward, of New York, who crossed in
the same boat. Durham was turning around the
corner Of Newark and Garden streets when he was
felled to the ground with murderous blow from
Enright who carried heavy weapon. Durham
lay stretched ON the sidewalk in an unconscious
condition, and the rum an, sezing his pocketbooK,
took 10 his heels. But ne was not destined 10 es-
