What shall be done for the protection
of cashiers and the banks to which they
hold the keys? This is becoming very
important position. One of these night
raids upon a sleeping cashier and his
family is no triflng matter, and the loss
of property large. One plan proposed by
very vigilant cashier, and one which he
has followed since the robbery of the
Bowdoinham bank, is to divide his key,
placing the parts at night in as many dli-
ferent and trusty hands in different places
as their are parts, thus putting it out of
himself or any individual to open the sale
of the bank to robbers or anybody else
This is hint for bank directors, which If
they act upon will save their treasure and
put an end to midnight raids on cashiers.

KENNEBEC HEAD WATERS.

To the Editor of the Journal
A glance at the map will show that posi-
tion gives the west branch of the Penobscot
river to the Kennebec. At the head of Moose
head Lake, which is now the head waters of
the Kennebec river, Seboomook sluice, the
west branch approaches within two miles of
the Lake. In times of freshet, the waters Of
connection with the position, shows that il
was the settled intention of nature that the
west branch should be in fact, as we'll as in
location, the head waters OF the Kennebec
rather than of the Penobscot. This intention
was temporarily defeated by some wayward
convulsion. We now propose to bring back
these wandering waters to their native ale
glance.
This 10 not a new move. About thirty five
years ago, survey was made at this point
and it was determined that the west branch
could be conducted into the Lake at the
trifiing expense of three thousand dollars. A
petition for that purpose was then presented
to the Legislature. 1t passed one branch of
shc eouic, uut was uelcdttu Ill the OtutT ny
the numbering interest of Bangor Similar
petitions, are now in circulation. The lumber
ing interest on the Penobscot, has so far de-
clined that there can now be no question in
regard TO the success of this measure.
Our object is to increase, one third At least,
the splendid water power Of the Kennebec,
and to make perfect that power for manatac-
turing purposes by securing its absolute uni
formity through all times of drought The
value of such water power in other States i.
from $50 to $500 per horse power, and the
same has twenty cents per day for horse
power, advantage over steam. Such power
beyond the limits of this State is now about
all taken up, and foreign as well as domestic
capital, for manufacturing purposes, is being
invested on the Kennebec. The success of
this project therefore, is matter of almost
incalculable importance to us, and the State
at large 10 almost equally interested.
Ous friends on the Penobscot cannot mag
Inc that they have the same reason now
which they had thirty five years ago, for de.
feating this measure. SOMERSET.

SENATOR EDMUNDS.

Hon. Geo. F. Edmunds of Burlington.
Vermont, who has recently been re-elect-
ed to the United States Senate, first APP
peared as member of that body in 1866
He was appointed to fill the vacancy causd
by the death of Senator Foot, and has
continued to hold the place ever since.
The time for which he was reelected the
other day will begin March 4, 1873. Mr..
Edmunds is an able and valuable member
of the Senate, whose services the State OF
Vermont has done well to secure. The
vote which he received in the Legislature
Is an evidence that the republicans stand
firm in their allegiance to party and prln-
ciple, Notwithstanding the efforts made to
split and destroy their strength. In the
Senate Mr.. Edmunds received every vote
but one, and in the House he had lo' 10

The official reports from Alabama con-
tinue to give evidence of the reign OF ter
ror in that State among the blacks. Bands
of armed men it is said are continually
traversing the country and visiting the me-
gro quarters, especially at night. They
seek the disguise of fictitious sheriil's
posse, and swear out false warrants. in
order to escape the operations of the en-
forcement law. Some of the members Of
this fictitious posse have informed the
Government officials that their real pur-
pose was the murder of negro leaders.
The government agents in concluding
their report say: 1.-The colored people
will suffer greatly during the coming win
ter. They have been driven from the

risen and made this country desolate.
