pronounces it as a most disastrous one in
respect to the loss of life and property

l49 lives were lost, more than the pres
ent year. The total tonnage of the YES
sells lost this season is 1858 and their
value 1872, 900; insurance 1851. The
heaviest losses have been in the Georges

The Prog. Age says its prediction that
We would support Jameson was ironical !
This is falsified by the succeeding num-
Der, after we had declared for that candi-
date, in which no surprise is expressed,
nor one word said on the subject. The
irony idea reminds us of that writer of
plays who succeeded SO badly that tt
public laughed at his tragedies and cried
over his tarces. The Age further saws
The Jameson organ at Bangor charged the
journal, at the time, with hauing been hired
TO support jameson and the Journal did not
deny il,
This is absolutely and unqualiiedly
false The Jameson organ was the Daily
Times, published by our lifelong friend,
William Thompson, and nothing like it
ever appeared in its columns, nor any I'M

All! we heard it at last! The sound
we had imagined and dreamed of so

how my eyes and my heart have ached
for q sight of you :-and, as it had been
raining for three days, and was still
drizzling, it was now red mud through
to level ground. For once in my life,

found some tolerably Clean stones for
us to sit upon; and, duty calling him,
he touched his shabby gray cap with
grave respect, and went his way. Duty
called him a long distance that day.
Two hours after, 1 saw that poorly
clad, weather-beaten figure lying prone
upon the grass-very still. A red cash
was across the temples; and the hon

pallid-was turned t)ward- the sky,
whittier his soul had fled, pray God!
1t was heavy work, meantime, wait

allotment the future might have in
store. And though, as said, we were
very quiet and we'll behaved, all things
considered, was glad when the un-
mistakable signs of action begap to
appear about us.
We were seated Immediately II the

of us was deep rayine, spanned by 0
