Kennebec correspondent Of the Machias
Union, in speaking of the growth of the
towns and cities in the county, says;
"Clinton has within few years doubled in
population and many nice houses have been
erected, without any very perceptible increase
in the business operations. Pittstield, from
a hamlet of half dozen old houses, has
sprung into a thriving town, with more than
twenty stores, large and small, two large
manufacturing establishments of wooden
goods, large and elegant hotel, a flourish
ing Academy, and population more than
,quadrupled. Newport is still another in
stance of growth and increase surprising
even those mentioned above"

Franklin Division Sons of Temperance OF
this city, has passed the following resolutions
on the death of Mrs. M. NJ. Stone
Whereas it has pleased God our Heavenly Father
in the dispensatpn of his ever wise and benignant
providence to take from by death our late sister
and friend, Mrs NJ. NJ. Stone, thus depriviug Us of
the wise counselor the good sister, the companion
of her youth of tender and devoted wife, the
neighborhood of the good neighbor, the ever true
and devoted friend, and our cause OF an able, de-
voted and Consistent advocate, therefore
Resotred, That we will ever cherish and keep
fresh in our minds the memory and good name Of
our departed sister; never forgetting her many
deeds of charity and love, but embalmiDg all her
virtues on the tablet of enduring memory, we will
earnestly strive to initiate them in our lives and
conve sation.
Resolred That to our brother, in this his great
day OF aflliction and sorrow we tender our condo
lence and sympathy, commencing him to the sweet
memories of the past, the bright hopes of the fu-
ture. But remembering how feeble and impotent
are all human words and phrases to bind up the
wounds and bleeding heart when standing thus in
the shadow of great sorrow, we commend him to
that fountain of consolation and love, which is full
and complete sufficient for every sorrow and trial
of lie.
Resoired. That these resolutions be entered on
the records of the Division, and copy of them sent
to brother Stone. GEO. HOWARD X. s.

WASHINGTON, June 8, 1872.
The dispatches exchanged to-day between Minis
ter Schenck and Secretary Fish, and Earl Granville
and Sir Edward Thornton. indicate that the British
government has discovered new source OF excuses
for dilatory action and captious criticism and has
proposed an amendment to the supplemental
article to cover certain class OF claims which are
believed to be left unprovded for in the article as
1t stands. For the tenth time Mr.. Fish replied
that the Senate's article Is our utimatum, and
that 1t was useless to propose amendments Of any
kind. question Of veracity has arisen between
Minister Thornton and Secretary Fish, of similar
character to that between the British and Ameri-
can members Of the Joint High Commission,
on the subject Of indirect claims Granville
asserts the authority OF Thornton that Secretary
Fish told him in plain language that the article
adopted by the Senate was capable OF Improvement,
as 1t left large class OF very probable
provided for, and that Mr. Fish distinctly indicated
some Of those arising from the use of the
word "belligerent" in the language OF
the supplemental article as proposed by
the British government and accepted by
the Senate This statement alarmed Granville,
who, since the question regarding the disposition
of the three classes of indirect claims before the
Geneva Tribunal-viz.: :, the enhanced rates OF in
surance, transfer of our mercantile marine and the
prOlongation of the war-has, upon the authority OF
Mr.. Thornton, pressed Mr.. Schenck to propose to
our government such an amendment would pro-
vide against the claims referred to by Mr.. Fish.
Mr.. Fish positively denies that he ever
gave Mr.. Thornton any assurance that would justify
him in pressing further amendments. He says
quite as emphatically Mr.. Thornton asserts to
the contrary that he never told the British Minis
ter that he desired or that government desired
any amendments of the kind. Mr.. schenck has
been instructed to declare to Earl Granville in the
most emphatic manner that 1t is useless TO pro-
pose discuss amendments to the Senate article
The impression is fast gaining ground here that
Schenck has become the amanuensis OF Granville
