THE WATER POWER OF THE PREsUMPscoT
RIVER seems to be destined to be largely EN-
ployed in the manufacture of paper and
paper material. In addition to the new
pulp and paper mills, previously noticed by us,
as projected and in course of construction at
different points upon the river, Messrs. Cloud
man and Plummer are erecting pulp mill at
Harden's Falls, so-called, about a mile below
Sebago Lake, in the town of Gorham, which
town very wisely had voted to exempt the
property from taxation. The mill is 72x35 feet,
two stories high, and will give employment
when in operation to ten or fifteen men, They
are putting in a Chase wheel of $50 horse pow
er, and propose to have a mill which will be
first-class in all its appointments. This is
fine locality for an enterprise of this kind, as
poplar wood is very abundant upon the shores
of the lake. The power here is not yet fully
occupied, enough remaining to operate paper
mill, which, it is hoped, some capitalist may
soon be induced to build here. The location of
the Ogdensburg Railroad in the valley of the
Presumpscot, has already had a stimulating eff
feet upon manufacturing industries in that
region, and will ultimately build up asuccession
of fourishing villages from Saccarappa to the

WASHINGTON.


.a.. NOthlnS from England yet
WASHINGTON, May 31-No official dispatches
had been received up to noon to-day from Lon
don as to the proposed new article to the Treaty
of Washington. Though changed in phraseol-
Ogy by the Senate, it preserves its original IN
tent. Gentlemen in high official positions be-
ing unable to otherwise account for England
reluctance to accept it, express the opinion that
her conduct is marked by insincerity, and that
she has reverted to the position she occupied on
the 18th of April, when Gen. Schenck inform
ed Secretary Fish that it was probable that the
government would like such course as would
put an end to the arbitration at Geneva and to
the Treaty. All hope of an arrangement is not,
however, abandoned Some of the earliest
friends of the Treaty now express indifference
with regard to its fate, concessions have been
made by the United States to the fullest extent.
Campaign against Indians.
Gen. Howard has withdrawn his request to
Gen. Crook for suspension of the campaign
against the Indians of Arizona, and advises
him to take vigorous measures at once to pun
ish hostile Apaches whom he designates as rob
bers and murderers who will not be conciliated.
Cabinet Meeting. aasoa
The Cabinet met to-day. All the members
were present except the Attorney General, who
was represented by Solicitor General Barstow.
The session continued over three hours most of
the time being devoted to conversation con-
corning our relations with England, those pres
ent expressing concurrence in the views of the
President and the Senate embodied in the
amended additional article to the Treaty of
Washington as to the ultmatum to the British
government No dispatches had been received
up to the time of adjournment showing any
change in the relations of the two governments.
Public Debt Statement.
The public debt statement to be issued to-
morrow will show a reduction during May of

DIR. MORSE on Catarrh and its sadly fatal

The air-passages are continuous from the nose
to the lungs-there being no break or Interrupt

becomes infiamed sufficiently to affect those
organs, causing cough, sore throat, hoarseness,
or difficult breathing, it becomes the forerun-

the delicate mucous membrane lining those

constitution, the disease often extends to the

finally through the throat to the lungs, causing

tomorrow evening. Mr.. Francis Murphy
will deliver a lecture on Prison

is scarcely necessary to speak of Mr.. Murphy IS
effectiveness as an orator. He is moved by the
inspiration of personal knowledge of the evils
of intemperance and sincere desire to warn

ready done great work in this and other New

THE ludicrous and somewhat dangerous re-
suits attending the operation of putting the
Spite" into the "larger" was fully illustrated
last week, in the case of gentleman up town
who loves the "nectar" but now hates to
draw it himself, would prefer the "old way"
of having 'little niger boy" to do it for him.
1t seems that he had half barrel of beer sent
to his house in the evening, (for obvious rea-
sons)undertook the, to him, plain and simple
act of introducing the ''faucet." So he
drove in the cork, and s'presto, change" what a
change both in locks and position took place;
for with the report of pistol, stream of the
creamy fluid struck him fair in the face, which
so astonished and delighted him that he
laid down on his back and "hollered." The
noise of the escaping fluid, together with his
double "bass' caused the neighbors to run and
see what the Jubilee was, and on looking ov
er the fence they discovered the General with
both thumbs on the hole while jets of cream
were playing all around him. In a few min
utes our friend was released from the position
of director of fountain playing, and treated
the company, who pronounced it splendid
