Is This TRUE.-We find the following in a
Boston paper OF yesterday. Is it true, and who
is Genevieve Brewer?
Five years ago Geneveve Brewer, beautiful
girl from Maine, was arrested in New York on
a charge of conspiring with Edward jenkins to
rob the Phoenix Bank, in that city. Jenkins
was paying teller of the bank and stole over
100000. He confessed that he had given a
large portion of the money to Genevieve, whom
he habitually visited in Madame Bells saloon
in Broad way, where she was employed as
waiter. He had furnished house for her II
Blocker street, and was about to elope with
her when the officers of the bank discovert
the defalcation and caused his arrest. Both
prisoners were subsequently released. Two
years after the occurrence jenkins died in St.
Luke's Hospital, and Miss Brewer returned to
the home of her mother in Portland, Maine
Her mother, however, was soon Frustrated by
sickness, and Genevieve was her only atton.

SPEECH OF THE PoPE.-A very import
ant speech was made by the Pope recently
in the Academy to deputation bearing
Peters pence. He said that the church in
vites her children to defend her against ignor-
ance and malice. Infallibility, if sufficiently
understood, does not confer power to depose
sovereigns. Popes in former times deposed
and dispossessed soyereigns, not because of the
lnfaillbility of the Popes, which only touches
matters OF doctrine, but because by the author
ity then repOsed in Popes, deposition or dis
possession was accepted as a public law
christian people also accepted the Pope in
those days as supreme Judge. Confounding
the present with the past in this regard is done
state against thu church. The Comments IN
the decision of the council he regarded as SUI
perftuous, the text of those decisions being
sufficiently clear.

RAILROAD CoNDUcToRs.-There are but few
positions that SO thoroughly test mans self
control as that of railroad conductor. While
the rights Of passengers and the duties of con-
ductors may be very generally understood,
there is constantly coming up some minor
question out of which grow ill-feeling and
sometimes hard woyds. "Children half-price''
opens wide field for controversy. Over
grown boys and diminutive men have COM
planned of being snubbed when they have at
tempted to take advantage of this rule. The
amount Of baggage lone female is entitled to
carry without extra charge has often been a
vexed question, and the conductor who does
only his duty is charged with extortion, and
with being mo gentleman" The rights Of
passengers co seats by depositing some article
ofclothing or baggage in them, while they may
occupy other seats or leave the car for mo-
ment, has never been definitely settled. 1t
has, however, been conceded by ladies and gen.
tlemen who Understand the rules of common
courtesy, that when a gentleman or lady has
taken seat and wishes to leave it temporarily
the deposit of satchel, shawl, overcoat OF
something of that kind will secure the seat

travel, but occasionally q person who rarely
enters q railroad ear drops into the seat re-
CARELESS of the rules that govern all well-in
formed and well-bred travellers, and sticks tt
1t like barnacles to ship. One of the mos
accommodating and gentlemanly conductors
who fills the place on any line, was called
upon few days since to settle a difficulty o
that kind, which he did very promptly in &C
cordance with the general rule, but not with
out considerable hard talk from a person in fe
male apparel, who had taken seat in which
was found the usual indications that it was al
ready taken. Conductors who understand
their business and are gentlemanly in theil
department, never have any trouble with pas
sengers who have any claim to the title of la
dies or gentlemen, but good nature is some
times taxed to its fullest capacity by those wit
through ignorance or obstinacy are disposed t,
disregard entirely the rights of others.

ATMOSPHERIC REMEDIAL INSTITUTE FOR THE
CURE OF CHRONIC DIsEAsEs-Locatedi in Ca
hoon Block, near City Hall, Portland. The
success of this system of treating diseases is
unparalleled. Everywhere it is introduced it
is regarded as the standard treatment in chronic
diseases The principles incorporated in this
method of practice render it applicable to the
successful treatment of very large class of
diseases; it is salutary in its effects and COM
paratively agreeable in its application; re-
quires little or no medicine to accomplish its
work, and consequently is harmless in every
case where applied. People who received the
rich benefits of this treatment three and five
years ago will most gladly testify to its perma-
nent results. sInvalids should avail themselves
of the first opportunity to investigate. Refer
ences of the most unquestionable character,
both lady and gentlemen residents of this city
may be had at the Institute. Consultation
free from Tuesday TO Friday inclusive each
week. ju29n

TO the Editor ofthe Press .


Returning this summer to Fyeburg we had
the pleasure of riding over the Portland & Og-
densburg railroad, and felt that too much can
not be said in favor of the management of the
road and the courtesy of the officers. In both
respects this road is unequaled, and this fact is
strong argument in inducing the travelling
public to patronize and sustain it. The route il
delightful and the advantages afforded those
who are seeking mountain air are unsurpassed
It is easy, quick and beautiful. The officers OF
the road deserve great credit for the zeal and
energy they have manifested in pushing the
road thus far, and when fully completed it can.
not fail to be great thoroughfare for business
and pleasure.
Fryeburg has been well represented in the
list of names of those who have aided this en-
terprise.
D. r. Hastings, Esq, has been untiring in
his exertions, and Major Harrington has
brought to the work an executive talent
coupled with clear judgment of which any
man might we'll be proud.
We say to all, recognize the efforts put forth
by the managers of this road, by patronizng
it, and experiencing the advantages and pleas
ure which 1t affords. KAPPA.

WASHINGTON, July 28-7.3O P. M.-No i'm
portant change has been reported from the
Rocky Mountain and Pacific stations. The
high pressure on Lake Superior has extended
southwark to KY, and eastward to Lake HUI
ron, Low pressure which was north of Lake
Ontario, has gradually disappeared. That
which existed on the western Gulf coast has
probably moved northward. That which was
west of Illinois still continues. NOrth-easterly
windsshave prevailed from Michigan to Lake
Superior, and to the Missouri river, but is now
changing to the southeast. The weather has
remained without material change in the
southern States. Rain has fallen on the i'm
mediate Gulf coast. Threatening and cloudy
weather has prevailed during the day from N.
