Pittsneld Items.

The "Pittsfield Advertiser" monthly pa
per published at Pittsfeld, has a circulation
of 2000 copies, and is fair transcript of the
progress and enterprise of the thrifty town.
From the August number we gather the fol-
lowing local items: Mr.. Benz amin Thomp-
sen, while walking along the east bank of the
Sebastcook, below the new stone dam, at
Pittsfeld, discovered small piece of shining
ore, which he picked up and carried to Mr..
Porter jeweler, who submitted it to the most
severe tests OF acid and fire, and found it to
be pure gold. The land is owned by Mr.. w.
X. Lancey. Mr.. Lancey proceeded to the
spot with man versed in the art of gold find
ing, and in panning out few pans full of dirt
found another small piece of the yellow metal.
There is no doubt but there is gold on this
stream, and the above locality resembles the
gold producing districts of California very
much. Mr.. Lancey proposes to prospect one
of the gulleys thoroughly and see what can be
found Mr.. G.. J. Pendexter is doing a
t1ourishing business in the way of manutactur-
ing pants. He has made and sent Off from
! lOOo to l,OO pairs per week, which scatters
lots of cash among the citizens and is good
antidote for hard times. The Free Baptist
society of Piusfeld Village, with the all Of
some of the citizens, are finishing the large
Chapel in the Maine Central Institute build

term of school opens, August 22.-Dobson,
