idea that Maine is decaying. Her prosperity

under the special difficulties growing out of

reason for congratulation. The Areostook

frugal population; our vast power is being

The Waterville Mail discourses as follows:
"On the whole, we see no reason for the alb
solute panic that has shaken the ballast from
the brains of some farmers. If we owned one
of the half starved hundred-acre farms that
have given but half crop of hay,-and if we
had got to spend our day on it,-tmoney and
means also considered I'VE would winter such
barnsful of stock as would make something
to top-dress our mowings with next year.
Good store sheep, heifers and steers should
not be sold for song to 60 to Brighton, so
long as our money lasted. A ton of hay, in
the shape of corn and shorts, can be bought
for ten dollars! Who would sell his cows for
ten dollars when this can be done? What will
he do next year, when his pastures may be good
and his hayfelds IN need of top-dressing !?
Maine is day better provided with hay than
with sheep and young cattle. Only part of
the State is short, while all New England is
well enough. The great west is glutted with
corn, and the railroads are already rush
ing it forward. If hay is higher in Kennebec
in March than it was in the same month last
year, it will be for reasons that we cannot see

REVISION OF THE d. s. STATUTES.

| A law authorizing the revision of the United
| States Statutes was passed in 1866. In Con
gress this measure of reform has been under
| the general charge of Senator Conkling OF
New York. and Representative Poland of
Vermont, chairmen of the committees of the
two houses on the Revision of the Laws.
About year ago Board of Commissioners
was appointed by President Grant, consisting
Of Judge Charles p. James of Ohio, Benjamin
Vaughan of New York, and Victor c. Bar
ringer of North Carolina, by whom the statutes
are now in course of being drafted.
They have already examined the Statutes
at Large throughout. and selected every pro-
vision deemed general and permanent in
character and still in force. These they have
classified under appropriate titles, in the order
in which they propose to arrange the work,
and each commissioner has taken some OF
these titles in charge and is circulating a
draft of the revision in the different States
and in various quarters for suggestions and
corrections.
The Board have some hope of completing
the draft of the entire revision in season to
submit it to the present Congress, at its clos
ing session, which will commence December
1872. 1t will present the entire general leg
islation Of Congress down to the time of max
ing the report, condensing the present official
edition of sixteen volumes into two or three
volumes. A copy of one of the parts before
US shows that the work is to be done in a very
thorough manner. When completed it will
be a great improvement over the present edi-
ton.

The International Association of Workmen,
which is making a noise about this time, ac
cording to the best authorities, has existed
for more than six years. 1t was founded on
the 2Sth of September, 1864, in London. A
provisional committee was appointed at the
meeting held on that day to frame statutes for
the society. 1t was subsequently agreed that
a congress should be held in 1866. The pro-
visional committee in the meantime undertook
to place itself in communication with the diff
ferent trades and workmen's societies through
out the world. AT the present time sections
of the society exist in France, England, Bel
GUM, Spain, Italy, Austria, Germany, IIol.
land ard the United States. In Paris alone
there are sixty-five societies directly under its
control, in Lyons thirty, in Marseilles twenty
seven and all the other prominent cities OF
France have more or less organizations con-
trolled by the Internationals. In Belgium the
Internationals may be counted by hundreds of
hundred sections. Switzerland has between
fifty and sixty sections, not counting that of
Zurich and two branches of Bale-Ville and
Bale Champagne, which last numbers three
thousand members. Austria, Italy, Holland
and the United States are all strongly repre-
sented in the Association.
