resolved to have that city selected as the
place of holding the National Democratic
Convention, if it is possible to do So Mis-

4. THE anti-admintration organs are trying
to comfort themselves with rumors that Gen.

BANGOR, April 10Th, 1872 -
Business has once more assumed its wonted
aspect on the Penobscot river. The most of
the mills commenced saving this morning.
The ice is out of the streams and fast wearing
away on the lakes, and the song of the river
driver is heard in the land. The prospect for
our lumbermen is better than for many years.
Our citizens are tugging away at theoretical
manufacturing, and there is good ground for
expecting something to come of it. One speak
er at a late meeting said that ''the people of
Bangor always get up an excitement on reli-
gion, temperance or something else just before
the ice went out. This year it was manufac-
turing and he hoped that unlike all these ex-
elements heretofore, this would not go out with
the ice.'
The political situation is drowsy, one ripple
aloue-the reported attendance of the Hon.
Augustus d. Manson upon the Cincinnati Con-
vention. Territorially Mr. Manson will represent
large bailiwick, as I hear of no other delegate
to that Convention east of the Kennebec river.
Mr.. Manson has not voted at recent elections,
and is in chrysalis state, politically
Much merriment has been caused by the
large number of gentlemen in the First Dis
trict, who are willing to serve it in Congress.
If there is any lack, we can furnish you an
abundant supply from the Fourth District. We
are now in an anxious state waiting for the de-
| cision of Hon. John A. Peters, as to whether
he desires or consents to reelection. If he
decides not to be a candidate then such a rush
Penobscot only can furnish. Among the names
of gentlemen DESTROYS of stepping in, or
whom the people may step in to the
shoes of Mr.. Peters, are Gen. s.. f. Hersey,
Hon. Lewis Barker, Hon. Josiah Crosby and
several others, quietly waiting for something
to turn up. Aroostook County-long suffer-
ing and full of good men, will claim it, as that
county has had no Representative within its Dor
ders FOR nearly thirty years, when it was repre-
sented fl one term by the late Hon. Shepard
Cary. 1t it goes to Aroostook, ( judge the
contest will be between Hon. Eben Woodbury.
and Llewellyn Powers, Esq. ! am of the
opinion, however, that Gen. Hersey will be the
successful man. - PENoBscoT.

Mr.. Greeey's popularity among those
who know him personally and where he re-
sides, is well-knoWn. In 1866, in a popu-
lOus district usually giving 1000 against
the Republican candidate, whilst Mr.. Fen
ton was running for Governor, Greeley's
vote stood 3,743 to Fenton's ,433. In 1861
Mr.. Greeley, in the same district, was
elected 10 the c n ltiosal ctn7'n ion 8 ID
with nine popular caniiia.es on the ticket,
/ h, outstripped them all, except Genera
Sicel. Ia 1859 he was candidate for comp
troller of the State. sra ia New
York City he received 1850 votes,
while Gen Sigel who was, at the ssme cleo
lion, the Republican candidate forSecretsry
OF State, received in New York City, &c.
S97 showing that Mr. Greeley. at home, ran
nearly . 600 ahead of Sigel. Ia l87O,as csndi.
date for Congress, his vote stood s ,2O3 against
1908 for Woodford as candidate for governor.
This does not show Mr.. Greeley to have
been so very unpopular when up for Office.
In every instance his has run ahead Of his
ticket. 1t has always been impossible &c

ing for him whenever he has been candi

Betheis method Of preserving ilk
and cream is AS follows: First the milk
is scalded; then it is surcharged with
carbolic acid by means Of IL force-pnmp
and afterwards drawn off into strong
metal barrels. By the aid Of y valve
cock attached to pipe leading TO the
bottom, the exit OF the liquid, can be
managed as may be wanted. The milk
may be placed in the barrels first, the
most convenient plan to be adopted when
milk is to be preserved under this
method Another method recommend
ed is to sweeten the milk by adding
clarified sugar at the rate four ounces to
the gallon Of milk. Then to curdle the
mass by means OF rennet and separate
the solid from the liquid portion with
sieve. Tne whey is evaporated by dry.
ness and the residue mixed by the aid
of heat and little bicarhonate OF soda
one part to twenty parts residue), with
the curd previously y washed and pressei.
When the amalgamation is perfect, SUI
ticient tragacanth is added to promote
the qualification Of the mass. These
methods are inferior to Borden's, where

How the Sun Caught a Thief.

Five or six days ago, says a Paris pa
per, M. x, photographer, allured
by the brightness of the sun and the
softness OF the air. provided himself
with necessary baggage, and hasteued
to Fontainebleau to take views of the
forest. He installed himself in very
picturesque quarter, erected his appa-
ratus, prepared his plates, opened his
object glass. and enveloping at once his
case and his head in large, dark, and
tluctuant veil, set himself to the task of
seizing the objects in view. He bad
just taken out his proof from the dark
chamber, and was subjecting it to
chemical reaction, when a strong hand
was laid upon his shoulder. He turned
round hastily, and found himself in the
presence of species of giant, meanly
attired, who, by gesture and voice, de
manded his purse. NJ. x is not
Hercules, and, from the first glance to-
ward his adversary, he concluded that
all resistance was useless. He there
fore politely offered his purse, which
was accepted with thankfulness. The
robber bowed, and, leaving him to re
signation, went into the depth of the
forest. Poor x, meditating upon his
loss, remained for some time motion
less; he looks were mechanically set on
his Photographic proof; he mused upe
it with a diverted and unconcerned
eye. Suddenly, What is this ?" ex-
claimed he; "what is the human form
IN this coppice under the shade Of this
oak? Heaven! Should | believe my
eyes? 1t is he, it is my robber, per-
fectly delineated, and very easy to be
recognized. o divine sun, my cola.
borer, how we'll you do things p On
his return he repaired to the police
commissioners at Fontainebleau, re.
lated his adventure, exhibited his
proof.plate and the malefactor's like

singular description, the robber was ar

Lying and Swearing. (.

Old Parson s., of Connecticut, was
particular kind of a person. One day
he had man plowing in his field, and
he went out to see how the work was
going on. The ground was very stony,
and every time the plow struck Il stone
the man would swear little.
Look here" cried Parson S., "you
mustn't swear that way in my field"
well, | reckon you'd swear too,"
said the man, "if you had to plow in
such stony field as this"
Not bit of it," said the parson !;
" let me show YOU"
So the parson took hold OF the plow,
but he very soon had great trouble
with the stones. AS stone after stone
caught the plowshare, the parson ejacu-
lated:
"Well, never saw the like"
And this he repeated every time a
stone stopped his onward way. When
he had plowed around once he stopped
and said to the man:
"There now! You see | can plow
without swearing"
"But guess it's pretty near as bad
to lie," said the man, "and you told a
dozen o. lies. Every time the plow
struck stone, you said, Il never saw
the like when the same thing had
happened the very minute beiore.'
