Vegetables.

Vegetables are abundant, but our
people are 10th to use them now,
owing to the close proximity of
cholera. This need not be so, there
are certain vegetables that ought not
to be used under any circumstances
at this season of the year, and there
are others, when used fresh, will hurt
no one. Stale vegetable should be
avoided at all times neither should
they be thrown out about your
houses or yards to decay and breed
disease.
We see no cause for our people to
be alarmed in regard to the cholera;
yet it is well enough that they be
temperate in all things,

ain slopes, gave such rise to the Saco here to-
day as has not not been seen since 1926, the
year of the slides One of the stone abutments
of the covered bridge at this place was partial
ly undermined and settled two feet. The body,
however, is still in place.
Along the line of the P. & o. railroad above
considerable damage has been done. The cul.
vert at Mill Stream, Centre Conway, has
been carried away with several rods of embank.
ment, and in Bartlett several culverts have
been badly washed and continuity of track
destroyed.
The rise of the stream is very rapid at this
point and the current strong. Probably nc
trains can go above this place for few days.
The water is now falling and the worst is con-
sidered over. The overflow has taken off some
stock from the farmers.
later despatch says that the damage was
not nearly so extensive as at first reported, and
that trains will run to North Conway to-mor-
row.

lowed up this morning. She took the heavy
gale on the first, aud had to throw, over the

Grand Lodge of Good TempIers.
RoCKLAND, Oct. 21.-The Grand Lodge OF
Good Templars began its sixteenth semi annual
session in this city to day. Owing to the storm
of last night the attendance is not 50 large as
it would otherwise have been. About one
hundred delegates are present. and among the
prominent members of the Order in attendance
are Gov. Perham, Hon. Joshua Nye, f. Il.
Shaw, esq.,, G. w. c, T., and others. The re-
port of the Grand Worthy Secretary shows the
present numbar of lodges to be 1876, wit h
membership Of Il, 206, which exhibs slight
gain upon the last report. The number OF
lodges is somewhat less than at the date of the
last annual session. The spirit of the dele
gates indicates active work and the session will

COUNTERFEITERS.
Prominent Men i'm Tennessee and North
Carolina Implicated-Sevcnty Five Ar
rests to be Made.

New YORK, Oct. 20-Additional particulars
of the raid upon counterfciters in Tennessee
and North Carolina are received. The crusade
was the most extended, strategetic and well-di-
rected ever organized, and resulted in the ar
rest of about sixty outlaws, with quite num-
Der to be heard from. The desperadoes belong
ing in the main to a counterfeiting fraternity
who are banded together by fearful oaths and
deadly ties, known only to themselves and
they have spread broadcast their bogus issues
to such an extent as to vitiate the genuine cir
culatng medium nearly one-third, and in some
cases to we'll nigh bankrupt smaller merchants
and trades people.
After consultation 10y the authorities at
Washington it was determined to place the en-
tire matter in the hands of Col. WhjteIey, Chief
of the United States Secret Service Corps, by
whom, with the assistance of Attorney General
Williams, plans were matured to entrap and
capture the guilty parties.
Whitley selected fIom his corps number of
the most experienced officers of the Secret Ser
vice. The officers obtained the confidence of
the counterfeiters and communicated their do
ings to the District Attorney at Knoxville,
Tenn.
The officers became aware of the organization
of counterfeites in the district in separate
gangs, all of them cooperating and working
together, each gang numbering five to eight
members, reckless, determined aud thoroughly
armed Each gang was fully aware of the
movements of others, and communication is
such as to eneable them to summon aid at a
short notice.
Becoming communicative, the counterfeiters
told where the illicit money was made. 1t
came direct from Ohio, and was in denomina-
tons of 50 cents fractional currency, $40 Ma
tonal Bank notes, $50 United States legal ten
ders of the series of 1869. 1t was transported
into Tennessee and North Carolina, as any
other commodity, by wholesale jobbers and
dealers, with regularity and precision. and sup
piled to customers and friends in sums to suit
the demands of trade.
In addition to the currency trade there was
also extensive dealings in counterfeit Mexican
dollars, which were principally put off on trav-
oilers and emigrants going to Texas and the far
west This money was manufactured in Ken
lucky. The transactions in both kinds of
money were enormous.
The criminals include men in every station
IN Iife-iawyers, doctors. justices of the peace,
postmasters United States deputy mar
shals, clerks of courts, and numerous mer-
chants. Sufficient evidence as to the guilt of
the parties having been obtained to justify the
action on the part of the government, official
warrants of arrest for ninety persons were is
sued by the United States District Attorneys
in East Tennessee and west North Carolina.
Expeditions were organized mounted, armed
and equipped, and started The territory en-
braced an era of 125 miles long BY 81 broad.
The ground in North Carolina embraced an era
of 5000 square miles.
The programme was admirably carried out.
1t is said about IS arrests in all will be made.

The Portland Bridge.

Mr.. EDITOR: In the PRESS of this morning,
referring to the act of the Legislature authoriz-
ing the surrender of toll bridges to the County
Commissioners, Mr. Kingsbury i'll regard to the
Portland Bridge SAYS:
The language of this section is clear and ex-
plicit and admits of but one construction. Up
On such surrender and acceptance, the bridge
becomes the property" of the County, to be
thereafter 'main tanned at their expense" and
no power short of the legislature itself, could
disturb the ownership and control The facts
show that Portland Bridge was so surrendered
to, and accepted by the County of Cumberland
after the passage of the above act, and has for
more than twenty years been the property of
and maintained by said County. The mere in
cident of annexation, as above supposed, can
not change the rights Of ownership and control
over said property.
Now the citizens OF Cape Elizabeth pur-
chased this bridge paid for it, surrendered it
in due form of law to the County Commission
ers to be tereqter the property of the county
and to be maintained at its expense-Mr
Kingsbury in his opinion says, mo power
short of the Legislature itself could disturb the
ownership and CONTROL
Now, Mr.. Editor, wish to ask Mr. Kings
bury through you, how the Legislature without
the consent of Cape Elizabeth could disturb
the ownership or control of this bridge
In the case of the Portland Bridge the condi
lions of the act were accepted-all Its cond
tions in the most formal manner complied with
and was it not therefore a contract with the
State which the Legislature have no power t.
annul, amend or change without the consent Of
all the parties thereto? L.

CRUELTY TO AND1ALs.-Complaint having
been made to Constable Libby, agent of the So
| cety fer the Prevention of Cruelty 70 Animals,
by several citizens of Scarboro', that a man liv-
| ing in that town, had Cor years, and was now
cruelty treating old horses. Mr.. Libby went to
investigate the case ON Monday. Near the
| mans residence he saw an old horse dead by
the roadside, and on reaching the premises
found half-starved wreck of another tied in
field where there was nothing he could eat,
while he was shivering from the storm. Three
of the horses feet were so turned up that he
stood up IN his instep, and in this condition the
wretch hauled hay with him the past season.
The other old horse had been killed by son OF
the owner. In another pasture the old fellow
had mule tied, that had nothing to chew but
the cud of reflection, which did not give him
very sleek appearance. Mr.. Libby told the old
wretch to kill the old horse at once, and take
care of his mule and colts, else he would prose-
cute him.
The man is well known in this vicinity, IS
worth $1,000 in real estate and within few
years traded his wife off for $40, and then Sc
cured divorce. He offered Mr.. Libby $40 to
give the names of the compla;nants. The old
heather has son q years old, that cannot
read, not being allowed to go to school, We
commend this man to the consideration of some
resOlute missionary society,"
