Observation-Disclosures of men in this State
will be glad to learn that Gen. Charles III.

the late war is so intimately associated with
the splendid record of the First Maine Cavalry,
is now in Maine where he is spending leave
of absence. Gen. Smith is now Colonel of the
10Th Infantry U. S. A, stationed at New Or
leans. He is in excellent health. He was in
the city Monday and left for Eastport at night.
There are scores of men who belonged to the
gallant First Cavalry who would go miles to
see their old and esteemed commonder. Gen.
Smith not only rendered solid service during

with the difficult duty of carrying into effect
the reconstruction law in Arkansas, he won
golden opinions from all classes in that State.

The SWEDISH CoLoNY.-The recent remark
able letter in the Boston Journal, predicting
that the Swedish colony will be a miserable
failure, has called fortd reply from Arostook
which appears IN that paper of Monday even.
ing. The following is what the writer calls a
historical account of the colony:
In 1870 New Sweden was settled by little
company of fifty Swedes, who cut their way into
an unbrOken forest to make themselves homes.
Their numbers have steadily increased. New
Sweden now, but three years from its founding,
numbers six hundred and fifty souls, with every
prospect of a steady increase in the town.
And what have these people accomplished
Why in the short space of three years they
have created an organized community out of a
wilderness. They have built thirty miles OF
road, felled twenty-five hundred acres of trees,
cleared in superior manner fifteen hundred
acres of land, erected over one hundred sub
stantial houses and as many barns, have raised
bounteoHs crops, and own goody number OF
horses, cattle. sheep and swine Can such re-
suits be called "a failure"
Furthermore our new colonists are content
ed people, and will stick on the soil OF Maine.
They have formed colonial government, they
have schools and a christian church, and have
| great love for their Lutheran pastor, Rev. An
| drew Wiren, who in turn has the. greatest zeal
| in his good work on our frontier; his sup
port coming in part from the coionlsts, ana IN
1
| this week. when the Clerk of Courts visited
| New Sweden, one hundred and thirty-three
| Swedes came forward aud took the first step
| towards naturalization by registering with the
| Clerk their intentions of becoming American
| citizens. A few weeks ago, hfty-six Swedes
| sent orders to Caldwell Brothers for Woodstock
| apple trees, with which to commence making
orchards for their new homes. Does this look
like home-sickness, and desire to return to
old Sweden?
An enterprising firm in this village has es-
tabliShed branch store in New Sweden This
store has been doing business there more than
six months. / understand it has sold on an av-
erage to the Swedes, $500 worth of goods per
week. They have received in payment for
goods, not cash, but the products OF Swedish
land Would moi one suppose from this that
| our Swedes are getting living.
Another fact All State aid to the colony
has now ceased. and it is the opinion
nists and of the citizens of this vicinity, that
the colony viii advance and increase without
the assistance of another dollar from the State
Treasury.
Besides the $50 Swedes in New Sweden. there
are $50 Swedes i'll other portions of Maine. And
this addition of 1900 working inhabitants to the
population of our State, who have brought with
them over $60, 900 in cash. is the result of the
Swedish immigration enterprise.
Tho immigration kas not ceased Access
ions are continually arriving. 1t is the opinion
of thinking men who have given attention to
this matter, that at the next census, in 1880,
Maine will number 5000 Swedish inhabitants,
and that tide of immigration has been open
ed into Maine, the value of Thch can be scarce
ly estimated.

qnet IN financial circles and steady feeling prevail
ca I'LL near the close, when the values declined The
apssnce OF London quotations in the morning had
tendency to check business, and VIII N telegrams
were received reporting some of our bonds higher
the same were affected by the reported failure OF
nrni on the London Stock Exchange. lt appears
that hlmber, Vivian IL Co., of London, have been
senng Erie short for firms here, and considera-
PIE pront was made on these short sales but the firm
