BIDDEFORD AND SACO.


WE introduce this morning a new feature in
the local news department of the PRESS We
have placed an editor at Biddeford and Saco,
whose dutyit is to make as full and accurate
report of their local affairs as we make of Port
lands. These items are brought in by late
train each night, so that we can bring the intel
ligence down to as late an hour as if the paper
were printed in one of those cities. Our papers
go out by early train in the morning, arriving
before o'clock, and are promptly delivered by
carriers at the dwelling houses or business places
of subscribers at about the same time that they
are delivered in Portland. Thus we shall practi-
eally make morning paper for Saco and
Biddeford and we believe we shall sup
ply an actual want which has long existed
These two cities have population of nearly
twenty thousand people, and have no daily pa
per. They are busy, active, intelligent and
prosperous communities, and it is our intention
to faithfully and promptly chronicle all their
affairs of interest and to call attention to the
numerous industries which there abound, and
in all respects to represent the interests of these
cities in the space devoted to them
Orders for the PRESS may be left at the book
stores of Lewis Hodsdon in Saco, and E. f,
Pillsbury in Biddeford

The annual town meeting of Yarmouth was
held Monday. Capt. p N. Blanchard was
chosen Moderator and Elbridge Thoits, Clerk.
Capt. p. N. Blanchard, E. G. Wagg and T. M.
Buchanan were unanimously elected Selectmen,
Assessors and Overseers of the Poor; Charles
Humphrey, Treasurer; Rev. Leavtt Bartlett
and j. Y. Abbott S. S. Committee; D. L.
MITCHELL Collector, who has A mills on dol
lar for collecting. All of the above with the
exception of Collector, were nominated at
citizens caucus and no other candidates were
voted for. Several years experience has salts
fled the people of Yarmouth, that politics, in
the party sense of the term, should have no
control in the management of its municipal af
fairs.
Financially the town stands well. The in
debtedness of the town is about $4,000. The
following sums were voted: For schools, 81 500;
for roads and bridges, $1,000; support of the
the payment of the debt, $4,000, and for other
small matters sufficient to make the sum total
to be assessed the present year for town expen-
SEES, 81, T. This small amount indicates
which were 1872 on 800, the amount raised
being 81, 900 more than this year.
Notwithstanding the dizziness of the times
which seems to rest upon this town in common
with most others, there appears an encouraging
look ahead. With the building of two or more YES
sells, completion of the new paper mill, which is
expected to commence running in a few weeks,
the -four, corn and meal business of A. L. Lor-
ing, and the cotton factory under the manage
ment of B. Freeman s. Co., together with a
determination on the part of many of the in
habtants to start up shoe mandatory, the
prospect is sufficient to encourage the hope
that the worst is passed With all the privi-
leges in the town and facilities of communica-
ton by water or rail, with all the marts of trade
in New England, Yarmouth ought to be one of
the most prosperous business towns in the State.

The HISTORY OF A NATIONAL REMEDY
Here is a history of the most celebrated tonic
OF the age i'll a nutshell. In 1860 it was an
nounced that certain combination of vegeta-
BILE ingredients, with pure diffusve stimulant,
was working wonders in the cure of chronic
dyspepsia, nervous debility, liver complaint,
periodical fevers, rheumatism and constitutions
al weakness. The unpretending name given to
the specific was PLANTATION BITTERs. The
statement attracted the attention of invalids
everywhere. The new remedy received fair
trial, and the results more than confirmed all
that has been said in its praise. Thenceforth
it was a grand success The business columns
of the press spread the glorious news far and
wide, and the martyrs to indigestion, bilious
ness, physical prostration and mature decay, as
if by common consent, sought relief from the
new vegetable restorative. They found ,ohat
they sought. From that time to the present the
increase in the demand for Plantation Bitters
has been one of the most striking events in
this age. mar25-eod1w&w1t

FREEpoRT, DIGBY COUNTY, N. S., February TO-
1S69.-JANIEs I. FELLOWS, ESQ. Dear Sir:
Gratitude to you, and sympathy for the afflict-
ed, induces me to send you written statement
of my case and cure effected by using your Com
pound Syrup of Hypophosphites.
In April, 1868, was attacked with palpitation
of the heart. I sent for the Doctor, and he said
that nothing could be done for me and that
was liable to die very suddenly; being very weak
and unable to leave my bed, became discoura-
ged.
After my Physician gave me up, was in
duced to use your Compound Syrup of Hypo-
phosphites, and the effect was wonderful. In
two days felt the benefit of it, and after TAX
ing half a bottle was entirely free from the
complaint, and to this day have not been troub
led with return of the Heart Disease
Yours, very truly, SARAH LENT.

Rev. c. d. Barrows of Lowell, Mass, was
greeted by full and appreciative house. AL
though this lecture was written in behalf the
Y. M. Christian Association of Lowell, and
has somewhat religious cast, yet the manner
in which the moral and intellectual develope-
ment of the young was treated-the stirring
earnestness of the speaker, combined with his
large and catholic spirit, rendered it highly
pleasing and popular entertainment.
Our citizens are enjoying greatly the intel
lectural and musical treat afforded by our

DELICATE CREATUREs-Ths is the phrase
applied by His Blacl1ness, the Moor of Venice,
to the fair ladies of Italy. 1t was the lovely
complexion of Desdemona, such radiant con-
trast to his own, that won his heart and sooth
to say, every man of discernment considers q
fair skin, like sweet voice, excellent thing
in woman" But this is charm which can
be acquired There is a healthful and odorifer-
GUS toilet article, known everywhere as HAGANs
MAGNOLIA BALM, which literally transfgures
a cloudy or sallow skin, suffusing the discolored
face, neck, arms and bosom with soft pearly
tinge, and imparting to the surface a smooth
ness and gloss like that of polished marble.
Instead of clogging the pores, like the sticky
enamels, or contracting them and thus OBJ
structing perspiration, like the astringent cos
metics, it ceanses the skin from all impurities
and wonderfully improves its texture. This
popularity is particularly appreciated by our
rural bellies, who find that the coaTseness and
roughness, which country air is apt to engen-
der, are speedily removed from their faces,
hands and arms, by this delightful preparation.
