Business Notes.

A shoe factory to be run by steam is being
constructed at Springvale.
A Lewiston Journal correspondent writes he
counted fifty fish houses on the bay at Damar-
iscotta Mills, Friday. Catching smelts is quite
business during the winter months. The
houses are fitted up with stoves and are moved
from place to place on the ice. The fish (most-
ly smelts) are shipped to Boston and New York
markets, and bring from 20 to % cents per

GRAND FRATERNITY ENTERTAINMENT.-The
grand entertainment in aid of this noble insti-
tuition will take place next Monday evening at
the City Hall. By look at the advertisement
it will be seen the whole affair is in the right
hands, and cannot fail of success. One com.
mendable feature, and we might say, novelty,
will be introduced into this levee, and that is,
the fact that nothing will be offered for sale or
to be disposed of in any manner except
boquet at nominal price, and refreshments.
The committee who have this affair in charge
trust that this particular announcement will be
received with commentator on every hand.

The New Railroad.

A short time since the PRESS published a
short account of the Cumberland County Cen
trail Railroad. 1t is proposed to have this road
form a connecting link between the Portland 81
Rochester and Grand Trunk and Maine Cen
trail roads. Hon. Frederick Robbie and twenty
eight others are named as the corporators in
the act of that date. The road is to be con-
structed from Danville Junction through the
towns Of New Gloucester, Gray, Windham and
Gorham to some point at or near Gorham viii
lage, where it will connect with the Rochester.
The act Of incorporation specifies that the cor
poration thereby created shall locate an actual
survey of the route proposed, and file the same
with the County Commissioners on or before
the 3lst day of December, inst, and the road
is to be completed by 1876, or the charter re-
voked As the Rochester connection with
Worcester was expected to have been made at
an earlier date, the present charter will have to
be renewed in order to secure the completion of
the work. The route as decided upon follows
the course of stream from Danville to point
in Gray, along dead level county, thence
along the valley of Pleasant river to its juno
ton with the P-esumpscot, which latter stream
it crosses at that point by bridge, the only one
necessary to be constructed on the entire route,
distance Of twenty-three miles. Thus the ex
pense of construction will probably be less than
for any equal distance in the state.
The incorporators held meeting in this city
yesterday and organized by the choice of John
d. Anderson of Gray, as chairman, and Steph-
en- Hinckley of Gorham, clerk. The charter
granted by the Legislature of 1872 was accept
ed, and the following Board of Directors chos-
en-: Daniel Holland, Lewiston; A. G. Chand-
Ter, New Gloucester; John d. Anderson, Gray;
w. ii. vinten, Gray; J. A. Parsons, Wind
ham; Frederick ROBBIE, Gorham; Stephen
Hinckley, Gorham; William Small, Raymond;
William Goold, Windham.
The following officers were elected: Presi-
dent-Frederick ROBBIE, Gorham; Treasurer
j. A. Parsons, Windham; Secretary-Stephen
Hinckley, Gorham.
Mr.. w. H. Vinton was authorized as Gem
nittee to request an extension of the charter
by the next Legislature.
The meeting adjourned subject to the call of
the President.

HIsToRICAL.-A painting of the gunboat Al
batross, by j. b. Hudson, is in Hale's window.
The Albatross was the only gunboat that fol-
lowed the flagship Hartford in her attack on
Port Hudson. The remaining boats were dis
abled After passing the forts the Albatross
lay forty days above Vicksburg, until the sur
render of Port Hudson. One of the crew made
a sketch of the boat, and from this sketch
Hudson painted. A photograph of the paint
ing is to be sent to each of the crew.

Last night the fullest meeting Of the Maine
Ce ntral directors that has occurred for years
was held at the Falmouth, and did not adjourn
until nearly midnight. The following directors
were present: President Morrill,, Messrs. Co :
burn of Skowhegan, Brown and Pierce of Port
land. Alden of Augusta, Strickland and Woods
of Bangor. Patten of Bath, Woodbridge and
Ward of Boston, Jones of Portsmouth, and
Cook of Salem. The only member of the board
absent was Mr.. Lothrop of Boston, now in
Europe. Besides the Maine Central directors,
the following railroad men were at the Fall
mouth: Manager Hatch of the Eastern, Supt.
Lincoln of the Maine Central, President White
and Supt Furber of the Boston and Maine, and
Messrs. Drummond, clerk of the Maine Central
and Edwin Noyes of Wateryille.
The subject under consideration was the
proposition of the Boston and Maine to the
Maine Central for business over these roads.
We understand that the proposition was con-
sdered all the evening, slightly amended and
finally signed by the respective contracting
parties at half-past eleven.
The following are the essential features OF
the contract: The Maine Central and the Bos.
ton and Maine are to be connected and the cars
of both are to run on either road, those of the
Maine Central and Eastern now do. The Bos-
ton and Maine is to have $1.5O for passengers
ticketed through to Boston from any point on
the Maine Central, and So ton for freight.
Charlestown, Maiden and Chelsea are to be
considered as through to Boston. To points
this side of the places above named the Maine
Central is to fix the tariff, which is to be di-
vided between the roads pro rata, according to
the number of miles each road carries the pas.
senger or freight.
The contract goes into effect at once and the
''frog" will be put in to-day, and by the first
day of January the new arrangement will be in
full operation The Maine Central also pro.
posed to enter into similar contract with the
Eastern, and there is every reason to believe
that it will be accepted, thus ending the rail-
road strifes that have so long been waged to
their own and the public injury. iH
A half million people in Maine have especial
reason to rejoice at the happy termination of
the blockade which has continued for two years
at this point, and which was creating SO bitter
feeling against the railway which runs through
the heart of the state. 1t is said that Hon. j.
B. Brown of this city, more than any one other
man, has contributed to bring about this happy
result
