David Garland, Esq, of Winslow, suggests
to the Waterville Mail the propriety of Cen
.enial celebration for Kennebec. He says that
one hundred years ago this Spring, Che men
toned the month and day, three towns, Hal
lowell, Winslow and Vassalboro', in Kenne-
bee county, received their charter at the same
time. The day on which this took place Mr..
Garland thinks may very properly be marked
as the centennial birthday of the county. We
agree with the Mail that it would be eminent
ly proper to celebrate the time which seems
to mark the one-hundredth year of the birth
of the county OF Kennebec, the garden OF
Maine. Let the celebration take place in this
city, and the sons and daughters of old Ken
nebec, ''from far and from near" many who
have carved out for themselves glorious names,
come together in grand reunion. Mr.. Gar
land is just the man to move in this matter.

Mt. Pleasant Cemetery.


Our correspondent, ''E. S. in a previous
communication, set forth the improvements
needed in Forest Grove Cemetery in this city.
In the following letter, reference is had es
pecially to Mt. Pleasant Cemetery:
wish to mention few things through your
paper to show the advantage of little outlay
by the city how it will bring the money into
the treasury, although in this case it is but
little. The city advanced no money but by its
action has put some money into the treasury
already, and there is a fair prospect for more.
The case have referred to is this The Su
perntendent ofburying grounds recommended
to the city council last summer to have two
widths of lots laid out where it had been re-
served for tombs on Mt. Pleasant, the high land
west of and near the steps leading from Mt
Vernon, or old grounds, near Rev. VIM. A.
Drew's lot The city ordered and these lots
were laid out and driveway made to drive
round on the east side of these lots in order to
get to and turn round to the east of and out to
the west driveway, at the expense of forty five
dollars and land left sufficient for tombs.
There has been one lot sold for twenty five
dollars, besides paying for. what the road
cost, and forty dollars besides. And there
has been other improvements made without
expense to the city A number of lots have
been sold this year to persons that only wished
to secure them and have them made and in
readiness, as all others should do. BY these
little improvements, think more than twice
the amount has been paid into the city treas
ury this year than during any other previous
year. And by little more of the spirit OF inn
provement in this way and many others, the
