The Brunswick Telegraph says that the
Androscoggin Pulp Co.'s mill at Topsham is
so well advanced; that running may be ex-
pected to recommence within a short time
Quite an addition was made to the mill on the
north side, and the frame work and bearings
for machinery are as strong as timber and iron
can make them. A boiler is set for beating
and drying and works splendidly.
The cheese factory enterprise in North Jay,
is progressing finely. The location is estab-
lished, and the committee, Messrs. N. L.
Phinney, VIM. Ii. Purington and o. G. Kyes,
are receiving proposals for erecting the build
ing in early spring.
The new spool factory, to be erected in
Dover, is to be 1875 feet long, by IS feet wide
and three stories high. A fifty horsepower
engine will be used. 1t is expected that two
hundred operatives will be employed a. thi.
mandatory.
The Montville and Searsmont cheese manu-
featuring enterprise is now fully started and
will commence operations In the spring. At
a meeting of the stockholders Saturday, last
week, it was voted to locate it at Cooper's
Corner, and the job of erecting the building
was let out to be completed in season for the
company to commence operations.
Messrs. C. M. & A. Baker of Bingham are
doing large business this winter in the man
ufacture of driving corks. The patent cork,
1.-THE Burr Flange' is an invention of theirs,
of which they hold the exclusive right in
company with S. A. & A. Dinsmore, their
business agents. This cork has given uni
versal satisfaction and they will find a ready
sale for all they can manufacture, which will
be at least one hundred and fifty thousand
this season.

There is scarcity of available house lots
in this city at the present time without going
further from the business centres than here
tofore. If owners of land in localities near at
hand were disposed to sell at reasonable fig
ure there would undoubtedly be considerably
done in the way of building the coming sea-
son. The fact is apparent that if the vacant
lots above referred to cannot BIZ purchased,
builders must seek out places elsewhere, in
order to supply the demand already pressing.
Houses we must have five would multiply
our business enterprises to desirable extent /;
and our people must turn their attention in
this direction.
Our citizens are now engaged in filling their
ice houses in anticipation of mild er weather

AFTERNOON TELEGRAMs..

London, Jan. 81. There is no doubt but
that it was the Spanish steamship Murrillo
which sunk the emigrant ship Northfeet, in
the English Channel. The Murrillo has ar
rived at Cadiz and made report of the dis.
aster. A telegraph dispatch to the Lloyds
from their agent at Cadiz, confirms the re-
port, that it was the Spanish steamer Muir
rillo, which ran into and sunk the emigrant
ship Northfleet, off Dugenness light house,
on the 22d inst. The steamship, however,
was not sunk, as one time believed, but has
arrived at Cadjz in safety. Her destination
was Lisbon, for which port she had a cargo,
but upon entering the harbor, she was signal
ed not to land as there is an extradition trea-
ty between Portugal and GrsatBritian, under
which the officers would have been surren-
dered to the British authorities to answer
charges brought against them. She conse.
quently put to sea again, and proceeded to
Cadiz, as there is no extradition treaty be-
tween Great Britain and Spain. The MUIR
rillo sustained no damage by the collision
Her officers and crew will soon be examined
at Cadiz in relation to the disaster.

ing that it was to be taken by ballot, and the
check list used, was entirely ignored. The
vote was taken with "indecent haste" very
few tbeing present except residents of the
East village, who had been instructed to be
present at certain hour, and about one hun
dred and fifty voters from the West village,
who arrived by train after the meeting had
been organized, not all Of them being in the
hall at the time.
The farmers who have q deep interest
in this question, (and nearly all opposed to
division) were breaking roads and s'doing up
chores" preparatory to visiting the town hall
and dropping their silent "no" in the ballot
box. When this "two to one vote" was taken,
there was total of but 357 votes given, out
of voting population of over one thousand,
and not one fourth of the whole vote of the
town being in favor of division.

acquittal, and for conviction, said to be Mr..
Hazelton, and who remained firm to the close
Notwithstanding efforts of his associates to in
duce him to change.
Mr.. Fullerton, of the counsel for Tweed,
thinks that the defence have gained an unex-
pected victory, and says he was somewhat
surprised that any of the jurymen should ia
vor acquittal after listening to the charge of
Judge Davis. He adds that Tweed is in ex-
ceedingly gaod spirits and proposes to con-
tinue the fight with all the stubbornness OF
his nature.
Wheeler and Wheeler, of the counsel for
the prosecution were exceedingly mortified
with the result of the trial and strongly hint
that the disagreement of the jury was secured
in an illegal manner and the jury must have
been influenced by mercenary motives.
The case will be Immediately brought up
for retrial, and the prosecution confidently
looked forward to a successful issue.
