Correspondence of the journal

BUCKSPORT, Dec. II.
Should stranger visit this place at this time
he would take 1t for granted that he had arrived
at the head of navigable waters. The fact is
that Bangor Is now largely represented here
both by her men and business. Our harbor is
an actual necessity for closing up for the season
the numbering business carried on by the up
river towns. Sixty -four vessels and the tug
boats are at our wharves or moored in the
stream, dozens of which are loading with the
products of the mills of the Penobscot that have
been fioated In RATS for safety to this place. The
amount of lumber brought down Is not so
large as usual owing to the cold snap which not
only closed the river at Bangor but at the same
time stopped millions of lumber in the ice,
where it must lie until spring. In this has not
Old Probability put in substantial argument in
favor of our railroad to connect with the roads
above!
The directors of the European and North
American Railroad have been here recently
with their engineer, examin ing our survey in
regard to accommodating the wbaryes and the
probable business to be done on the road They
have also chosen special committee to confsr
with our directors in relation to the building Of
the bridge across the river above Bangor, to
connect with their road. The town OF Brewer
has voted to take twenty thousand dollars stock
in the road, and Orrington will do AZ much
more, her leading men being much interested
IN the project. l am told that private subscrip-
ton will much exceed the above amount.
The smet fishing on the bridge leading to
Verona opens very successfully, nets are
stretched the whole length of it, amt the fisher
men are busy. Our shoe factory Is in full blast.
This business has Il sure footing now, and will
be increased the coming season.
We have only three vessels on the stocks al
this time, which is quite contrast with other
years. Desolaton appears to reign at our ship
yards.
A very s.agular well rs serious accident
happened to one of our enterprising mechanics
De Forrest Snowman, last Friday. He was

r. NJ, II NJ Blatchtord, an old and

ont of the vaults of the Safe Deposit Com

with package at bonds inclosed in nu
ordinary envelope, and proceeded down
Liberty street on his way to his office,
stopping near Nassau street to purchase
some fruit nj one of the street stands
lncautiously laying the package of bonds
on the stand, he took out his pocket-bOok
to pay for the fruit, and, while in the act
was addressed with an inquiry by =
stranger, Turning courteouslv to answer
him Mr., Blatchtord's attention was with
drawn from the bonds when n man behind
him rapidly seized the bonds, and, plac
ing them beneath his coat, disappeared
The inquirer thanked Mr.. BIatchtord, and
hurried away. the whole transaction oc-
cupying but few seconds. When the
latter turned he discovered that his bonds
had disappeared from the stand, and that
there was no trace of those whom he now
suspected OF having stolen them. After
thinking of the circumstances, he felt
convinced that he hal been followed by
three men, one of whom spoke to him at
the fruit stand while another stole the
bonds, and the third must have acted as a
lookout The package contained $50 500

The New Hampshire Democracy.

The dispatches stating that the Demo-
cratic State Convention had adopted the
new departure notion, were erroneous.
The democracy Of the old Granite State
declined to harness themselves to that
folly. They renominated the present OK
cellent Governor, James A. Weston, and
put forth the following platform, every
sentence of which has the ring of the true
metal
Resolved, That the Democracy of New
Hampshire firmly adhere to the principles
hereby enumerated
LIST. The perpetuity of the Union--a strict
obedience to the Constitution, and an honest
enforcement Of the laws.
end. The protection of the rights of every
citizen in accordance with the fundamental law.
Sd. Opposition to ever species of corruption
in all the departments of municipal, state and
national governments.
4th. No privileged classes and no privileged
capital.
9TH tariff that raises money for the neces-
sary expenses of the Federal Government, and
not for the benefit of monopolists.
Resolved, That the recent declaration of mar
tial law over portion of the Republic, is an
atrocous use of an unconstitutional enactment
and we hereby denounce that enactment as
subversive of every principle of civil liberty
false in its preteXts, and in its enforcement an
outrage demanding earnest remonstrance and
rebuke; and we invite all patriotic citizens OF
New Hampshire who are opposed to the pres
ent National Administration to join with us in
our efforts to stay the tide of corruption and
Capitalization which threaten to destroy the
civil liberties of the people.
Resolved, That we pledge ourselves to re-
form of the Civil Service of the general govern
ment, to the vigorous prosecution Of reforms
in our own State; the. reduction Of its expendi-
lures to the lowest practical limit; the elevation
of the courts of justice above the influence of
any personal or partisan consideration, and the
enactment of all necessary laws which public
sentiment will sustain and public officers be re-
quired to enforce.

Novel Way of Extending the Circulation
of a NEWSPAPER.

Ten thousand copies OF the New \ urk
Times of Saturday containing an editorial
article assailing independent Republican
Senators for their course in supporting
the Trumbull resolution, have been re
ceived at the folding-rOom of the Senate,
where they have been put into wrappers
at the public expense They are to be
apportioned among the Administration"
Senators, for distribution over the country
under their franks The article in Ques-
ton is believed to be about the only one
that has appeared in any paper of re-
spectacle standing. in which open con
demnation and ridicule is expressed of
Senator Trumbull's proposition for 4
thorough and honest investigation Of the
operations of the various departments OF
the Government. Its preparation was
thought to be a matter OF SO much inn
portance that the managing editor, as well
as the proprietor Of the Times, in com
pany with Tom Murphy, came on from
New York, and We're at the white House
on Friday, besides being in consultation
with their friends in the Senate. The
article is supposed to have been prepared
by the Joint efforts of all these gentlemen.
Arrangements were made to have the
extra edition printed and forwarded to the
Senators for distribution and to save eN-
penses, they will not only secure the free
transportion of the papers in the mails, but
have managed to get them wrapped IN
Government wrapping paper by Govern
ment employees. N. Y. Tribune.

agree to print it entire in his columns.

permit his readers to see
