Portland ms a summer Resort.

While Newport, Saratoga, Niagara rahS'
Cape May, Nantasket, and we know not now
many other places of greater or less conse-
uuence, offer their several attractions to the
summer tourist, we think that none of them
can present greater or more varied charms TO
the invalid and pleasure seeker than the town
that has been already immortalized by the
laureate of America as the "city by the sea-"
And now that winter has burst the lev bonds
that held spring captive, and our dry and even
dusty highways displays the green grass sprout-
ing through the stubble, with snow-drops, GRO
cusses and hyacinths lifting their heads to be
bathed in the bright sunshine, we feel that
summer is fast approaching, and that already
in the cities and towns to the South of us the
question has already been mooted, where
shall we pass the summer
This year our facilities for the entertainment
of visitors are much more extensive than ever
before, and such as a few years ago we never
dreamed of. True, our beautiful harbor was
always with us, studied with its emerald isles;
the water was as blue then as now; the skies
on the warm June days as clear, the SUMS rays
as bright and cheerful, striking through the
branches of the great trees and checking the
greensward with light and shade; but our
methods of communication with the outside
world were much more limited and our own
resources as a wateri ng- place were hardly de-
veloped. From the great confagration of 1866
a new Portland has arisen, and the Cinderella
of decade ago has been transformed by the
wand of fairy-whose name is Progress
into the belle of thousand charms, who brings
multitudes to her feet. She does not obtrude
herself upon public notice. During the long
cold winter months she rests and gathers
strength and health for the summer campaign,
and when June clothes her superb old elms
with their exquisite robes of green, and carpets
her fields with tender grass worked into the
rarest patterns, with the wealth of primroses,
dandelons and buttercups; when the waters
of CascO Bay lean and dance in the snplipht

FIRE AT EAST SUMMER.-About 6 o'clock on
Thursday evening fire was discovered in the
drying room of Mr.. Charles Forster's tooth
pick factory at East Sumner, which spread
with such rapidity that all efforts to save tho
building or contents were unavailng. The
building, with all its contents, were entirely
destroyed, together with grist and single
machine. The mills were owned by Mr.. A. S.
Head and the factory leased to Mr.. Charles
Forster, of Buckfeld, who had been running
it less than year. Mr. f. had large guam
tity OF tooth picks and cigar lighters ready for
the market, on which there was no insurance.
The entire loss was from $4,000 to $12 900, on
which there was $4,000 insurance. The loss of
this factory will be seriously felt by the citi-
zens of East Sumner, as some twenty persons
are thereby thrown out of employment
