The logs of the Kennebec Land 6 Lumber
Company, cut the past winter, have been put
into the waters of Moose river and its tribu-
taries, RATED, and are to be driven down the
Kennebec to the mills in this and at Pittston,
to be supplied as they are wanted for the sum-
mer's work. An unusually good winters
work was done in the woods, but there was
considerable difficulty in getting the drives
out on account of the low state of the water.
At one time it was thought that that fifteen
hundred thousand feet of lumber would have
to be abandoned in Church's pond, but time
ly rain came, and the Land & Lumber Com
pany's crew sluiced out G,90O logs in four
days time, and the logs are now all cleaved.
Other parties have been less fortunate, and
have not been able to get at their drives. The
water has been veryl ow all the season. Ira
d. Sturgis, Esq, has a fine field of grass on
his farm in that vicinity; indeed the prospect
for an abundant grass crop in that region is
very iattering. Mr.. Sturgis has two large
barns on his farm, and is now erecting a
house, which will be finished during the sum
mer. The place is about four miles from the
Canada road. Mr.. Sylvester Boothby, who
is just from the woods, says that on Thurs
day last, Both, he saw a snow drift in an open
field, in the vicinity Of Parlin's Pond, thirty
rods long and from two TO six feet in depth.

There was fine audience at Granite Hall
asst evening on the occasion of the Cary Con-
cert, but not SO large as we hoped to sec, many
being kept away by the rain. The audience
was brilliant the programme was attractive
large delegations from Gardiner, Iiallowell.
Waterville and Winthrop, We need not
speak in detail of the performances of the
distinguished artistic, Miss Annie Louise Cary,
whose history, musical career and talents
are we'll known to the people of her ma
tive State. She was in fine voice and won
her way at once to the hearts of all-even
those whose expectation were raised to the
highest pitch. Her sister, Miss Ada, with
her sweet, rich contralto, was very warmly
received. The evidently highly cultivated
and powerful bass of Mr. bennett had many
admirers. The duett, "Beware," by the
Misses Cary, deserves special mention and was
rapturousiy applauded. Our home singers,
Mrs. F. A. Milhken. Mrs. Z. J. Myrick, and
Messrs. Atkins and Sewall, won fresh laurels
by their melody and artistic rendering of the
pieces sung. The concert will long be re
membered a, one of the most delightful ever
given in Augusta, and Melted a handsome
little sum for the public library.
