WNoo>KL-A NEW REsERyoIR.-We are
glad to learn that the project for new
dam, above the present one, which will
turn the whole basin above into a spacious
reservoir, is taking practical shape. The
parties interested propose to organize a
stock company with a capital of SIOO, 900.
They have obtained the agreements of the
owners Of the present water power to sur
render their property to the new company
ana take IN pay therefor $50, 600 in the
stock Of the company 1t is proposed to
place the new dam 300 feet above the old
dam, where 4 ledge of rock affords firm
foundation. 1t will be ten feet higher than
the present dam, will be 600 feet long and
will Hood all the low lands above, amount
ing 10 100 acres. 1t is proposed to build
the new dam Of wood and stone, at cost,
according to estimates which have been
Submitted by Mr.. Linsley, of some S35 900
The Improvement will make one of the finest
water powers in New England, with a
practically incxhaustible supply Of water,
the year around. There can be no doubt
That the enterprise Is one Of the utmost
value to the manufacturing interests OF
Nmooski; that its immeiilte advantage,
to the present mills could be worth its cost
and that it would bring plenty of new mill,
and factories in years to come.
OF course the experience of Williamsburg
Mass, has taught all concerned, if any
needed the lesson, the importance of having
the work safe and substantial one. and
such We understand it Is the purpose t,

ESSEx.-The brick making business at
L-sex junction promises to be one of the
largest manufacturing interests in the
town. 1t has been increasing from year to
year, till now the managers and proprie-
tors, j. X. Drury a Son, are commencing
their labors this year with Il gang of over
one hundred hands, several new brick ma
chimes, an enlarged capacity for burning
and covering in their brick, and large
prospective demand for all the brick they
can manufacture. Their capacity for pro-
daetlon is about four million per annum,
and with the improvements they are max
ing and the facilities they are adding, it
may be much larger. During the present
season they propose to make an imitation
pressed brick, which they claim will an
SWer all the purposes of that article and
at much less cost. They have the special
rates Of freight Jn the railroads, SO that
they can give their customers the exact
cost OF brick laid down at their nearest
uepot. The clay of which these brick are
made is Of the very best quality. and seems
10 be almost exhaustlcss, affording to
TINS enterprising firm mine OF present and
prospective wealth. The story of the brick
making business in Essex. would form an
interesting chapter, connected as it is with
some Of the early settlers of the town.
ihe yard near the Centre was opened and
worked for many years by Ebenezer Thomp-
son, and his brick were always good. lie
never made a failure in bnrning them. The
brlek used in the first academy building
were the last work Of this kind of his life.
lew days since as the assessors of Essex
were viewing the landscape Ger. for APP
pfaisal, one Of them discovered nice large
Trout, that had been stranded by the reced-
Ing waters of the late flood. lie caught it
up from Its muddy bed and proceeded to
wash 1t in the clearer water near BY. when
slipped from his hands, dissipating at
uh0e the bright visions of bouptiful din

NoRrHrIELD.-J. Al. W. Gould. whose
woollen factory was burned in the winter OF
1873, are rebuilding. They are erecting a
most substantial structure. Its dimensions
are Main part, 10 by 50 feet, four stories
high; ell 90 by 81 feet, and two stories high.
The foundation is a ST ante wall twenty-o one
feet high, extending below the surface nine
feet, and largely resting on bed rock nine
feet thick at base and four feet at the top,
where the brick begin ;. The body of the
building is of brick and Partakes of the same
substantial qualities a. the foundation.
\ tower on the front midway from east
to west l2xl2 rises from the ground and
oyertops the building forty feet. The fac
tory Is on Dog River, at Gouldsyille. Both
in cement. In addition to the water power,
the Messrs. Gould have purchased an en-
CINE of fifty-horse power. Thirty hands
are now employed upon the building-;he
carpenters under the capable direction of
Amasa Alexander, of Berlin, and the ma
sons under L.R Robinson, Of Milton. When
completed the mill Will have capacity
for six full sets of machinery, employing
one hundred hands and turning off about
5000 yards of flannel each day The
"weave-room, so called. Will not have in
it a single post or rod, its floor being sup
ported by posts from beneath and the rooms
above by rods from the truss roof. This Is
a novelty, but one which factory men can
appreciate as good thing" The Messrs.
Gould hope to have their mill completed in
September The cost of the factory will
not be less than SIS, 900 and the cost Of ma
chinery not far from So, 200. Such an en-
terprise is valuable aid TO any town, and
we are glad these gentlemen have conclud
cd to continue their business in our town.

\ young daughter of Mr.. Adams, of
this village, died on Tuesday, and the symp-
toms attending her sickness were so marked
as to cause little doubt that her death was
from oleander poison, not from con-
tact with, or eating it, but from
living and sleeping in the same air with an
oleander tree of some size during the Win
ter and Spring. This young girl was pc
culiarly bright and intere sting, pet OF all
who knew her, and her loss is felt deeply
outside of the home circle. where she was
almost idolized.
