LETTER FROM CAMDEN.

Notes at the Seas,de-Ileasure Pa,1ies-A
Norel Marriage, a girl of l3 to man of
26-Hopement.
CAMDEN, Aug. &c.
The season has been one of gayety and
pleasure. AT this time the number of pleas
ure seekers have been so many that all the
places for boarders has been filed In look
ing at the Bay View Register this morning,
tor the month of August up to date there have
been over eight hundred arrivals, The greater
part of whom were pleasure seekers. We
aoticed the names of Wm. I. Adams ("Oliver
Optic, y and "Sophie May" who were there
three weeks, and 'Josh Billings" who
stopped over one boat, as literary represen-
atives. and the Hoffmans of Boston, mus-
aians, and many others of public reputation.
From Augusta we noticed the names of
Thomas Lambard and family, Col. Dewitt
and family, Mr.. Moore and wife, From Ban
gor conductor Gray, who was hurt at the re-
cent railroad accident at Bangor, and wife.
A L. S. Coast Survey steamer makes Cam
den her headquarters till October The ma
rines go in the first society. The Bay View
| is thrown open for receptions, and almost ev-
cry night some one gives shop" for the
benefit of the Coast Survey; last night par
| ty went from here to Rockland, and joined
party there at the Thorndike House, and all
joined in social hop given by the Coast Sur
yey. Whether these Coast Surveys are a
| benefit or not, one thing is quite evident that
Camden and Rockland will lose some of their
handsome daughters by their remaining on
our coast so long during the summer season.
A ludicrous affair took place here about
two months ago. A forward Miss, resident
here, aged l3, gave her hand in marriage to
man Of 26, belonging in Vinal Haven-she
told him that she was only Is, and that her
folks were not willing that she should be mar
ried so young. A wedding dress was made
in haste, and secretly the happy pair were
united in the bonds of matrimony. Too late
the father found that his child had left him,
and was the lawful property of another. With
reluctance he submitted, but had not ceased
to mourn the loss of his daughter till few
days ago, when she returned home to her
fathers house, having been sent by her hus-
band, who by some means had found out
about her age, and requested her to go home
and attend school for the purpose Of finishing
her education. She will attend one of the
lower schools which begins next Monday, and
in few years will try the married state again.
The weather here at Camden has been de-
lghtful this summer. Fishing parties, picnics
and excursions have been the order Of exer-
cises during the week, and Sundays the
churches have been well filed; the pulpits
being occupied mostly by ministers from
abroad who are here resting from their iaoors.

This is an age of inquiry and people are
beginning to realize the magnitude Of the
evil caused by the use Of injurious compounds
FOR the hair, which are prepared and forced
into market, by men who are not practical
physicians, and who may not be aware of the
injury they are producing. These prepara-
lions have been analysed by competent chem
lists, and shown to contain poisonous sub
stances, causing Nervousness, Headache, Par
alysis, and often fatal results.
In contrast with such injurious articles, we
call attention to the Hair Restorer prepared
by DR.. R. Greene, Superintendent of the Bos-
ton Medical Institute, who has been q sue
cessful physician in Boston for more than q
quarter of century. DR.. Greene uses Veg
etable Remedies only, and can assure the pub
lie that this Hair Restorer will do all that is
claimed for it, without a possibility of injury.
Ihaue tested sample Of DR.. Greene's Hair
Restorer, and find that no poisonous metals or
injurious matters erist in it.
c. r. JACKSON, State Assayer."
The use of this Hair Restorer for twenty
five years has tested its superiority as dress
ing, and its power to preserve the hair and
scalp in a healthy condition. 1t removes
| dandruf, prevents the hair from falling off,
preserves its natural color, restores it when
| prematurely gray, renders it soft and glossy,
promotes its healthy growth, and is the best
| dressing ever discovered. While other prep
| arations are sold at almost any price, DR..
| Greene's Hair Restorer has sustained its good
| qualities, its price, and its reputation. 1t is
| prepared by DR.. r. Greene at the Medical In
| stitute, "a Temple Place, Boston, and sold at
| ST per bottle, or six for $5, or sent by ex-
press to any part Of the country. Pamphlet

LETTER FROM NORTHPORT CAMP
MEETING.

NoRTHPoRT, Aug. %.
70 day the exercises of the week closed.
The meeting has been one Of unusual interest,
and as result of earnest labor there were a
large number Of hopeful conversions.
The same board of officers as last year was
elected. Rev. Geo. Pratt. Presiding Elder of
Bangor District, was chosen President, Rev.
David B. Doane Treasurer, and Rev. F.
Church of Winterport, Secretary. The first
sermon was preached Tuesday morning at 10
o'clock by Rev. James w. Day of Searsport
from the text SIT is good for us to be here"
and was listened to with deep interest. At
2 p. M. Rev. l.. l.. Hanscom of Camden
preached from Matthew 5:s. Tuesday the
speakers were Rev. Mr.. Morse at 10 A. NJ,
and at . p. M. the Presiding Elder of Rock
land District, Rev. Mr.. Helmershausen, from
Isaiah y. A very large audience, estimated
at ten thousand, listened to his earnest entrea-
ties. Thursday there was rush. The Ban
gor barge came down packed full, and steam
boats and yachts from other places at an early
hour were anchored off the Camp grounds.
One of the latter brought 60 gallons of whis-
key spirits to mix with the better spirit, but
they did not mix. County sheriff of Belfast,
Mr.. Calderwood, smelt the liquor from the
shore and seized it soon after its arrival Had
he not taken it there would probably have
been many long before night well filled with
the bad spirit as well as the good, and that
too on praying ground. There was no dis
turbance however, and the whole exercises
were marked by good order and quiet. The
crowd was larger Thursday than any day ,and
was estimated by the Bangor Whig at twelve
thousand. AT 10 A. NJ. Rev L. ID. Ward
well of Rockland preached from Luke ID :6
TO 9. This was very large audience and
time of considerable interest. At 2 P. M.
Rev. Chas. Allen of Bangor spoke from First
John 4 to the largest congregation that has
/ assembled on the grounds for some years.
Friday morning was the general Love Feast.
AT 10 A. NJ. preaching by Rev. Ami Prince
Of Hampden. Text, First Peter :8 to 10.
At p. NJ. Rev. w. w. Marsh End church of
| Bangor, from Second Kings 10. ALI the
| meetings were marked by feeling of deep
| interest. About one hundred and fifty tents
including the private tents were erected. A
few years ago no private tents were used, but
now their number exceeds the society tents.
Pleasure seekers as well as church goers
camp out and enjoy the sea breeze, clam dig
ging and fishing, during the week, to the best
Of their ability. Great improvements have
been made in the grounds. About one thou
sand dollars have been expended in building
fence making a steamboat landing and dig
ging wells. KAPPA.

Spread the Trutfs.

Some medical men insist that il lie undigni4
fed to advertise remedy, however valuable
it may be. Queer reasoning this. 1t Id like
saving that an article which the world
needs should be held in corner-that bene-
fits and blessings may be too widely diffused
that the means of protecting and restoring
health should be close monopoly, and not
accessible to all. The argument is bad. 1t is
worse than that it is INEUMAS. Suppose
Hosteter's StOmah Bitters-an absolute spe-
cifc for dyspepsia, billiOusness and nervous
debility-had never been known beyond the
RgPEKToIRE of the faculty, what would
have been the consequence Instead of cur
ing and invigorating millions, the good eff
fects of the preparation would have been
confined to comparative few. There is
the highest authority for saying that light
should not be hid under bushel; that
whatever is excellent should be placed as a
city on hill, where all men can take cOgni-
zanCe of it. Ii is upon this principle that
the Bitters have been advertised and con-
time to be advertised in every newspaper
of any prominence in the western henis-
phere and that the spontaneous testimonials
in its favor have been translated into all
written languages. Thousands enjoy per-
feet health to-day who would be languishing
on beds of sickness if the newspapers had
not spread the truth regard to this uneqalled
invigorant and corrective lar and wide
Suppose profit has been reaped from this
publicity. Is that any argument against
it! If the public health has been protec-
ted if lives have been saved; If the fee
bic have been strengthened and the sick re-
stored. great good has been accomplished :
and who so mean as to grulge to eYertions
thus directed the fair reward

any other farina, and hence better adapted
to weak stomachs, to dyspepsia, TO invalids

cases where tapioca. sage, barley, corn starch,
maizena, and similar articles are beneficial,
the Sea Moss Farine is not only a substitute
but has advantages which neither of them

Coon News FROM IRELAND During the
Irish famine We sent a million of dollars
worth Of food to Cork. Ireland is now repay
ing the debt with interest; not from harvest
fields, but from the sdamantine rocks on her
coast. An enterprising company in New
York is importing ship-loa S of the edible
moss that grows on her cliffs, and converting
it, under the name of SEA Moss FARISE, in
to an economic source Of nJurishment and
palatabe food. The new source of aliment
is prepared under a patent, and although
but a year in the market, has already taken
precedence of all the gelatinous agents here
tofore used in cookery. No epicure who has
tasted the puddings, custards and jellies
made from SEA Mess FARINE, will deny that
they are incompatible. The saving effected
by using this article instead of mazena, fari-
na or corn starch (all of which it exceeds in
palatabilityl, is about fifty per cent.

NdrrO1c Gudge r. R.-A few days
ago we met with Mr.. Mcbride, of the
Greene County Iron Works, who was
Just returning from New York, where
. he secured about $l2, 200 toward the
construction of the 80 inch wooden
Railroad from Greeneville to Hays
Vile, the location of the Greene COun-
ty Iron works. The distance is elev-
en- miles. and when visiting the works
last summer Mr.. Gleason, the Super
intendent, told us he would enter in
to contract TO build the road for
$40. 600. OF this $4,000 has been
secured in New York, several thou
sand in Greeneville and Greene COun-
ty and the Iron Company will proba-
hly take the remainder. 1t is inten-
ded to use the wooden rail for four or
five years and then strip with iron.
The value of the work is seen at once
when we know that this one company
is turning out ten tons of metal per
day and the New York half as much.
