erpool lat Eaturday, took out as part
Of her eark0 ) curious shipment Of
live stock, which, after nearly circum-
navigating the globe, is to 60 to the
Government Of France. The lot con-
sisted Of some thousands of silk
worms and some tons of silk-worins'
eggs, gathered in the neighborhood
Of Yokohama, Japan, and shipped
from that port, via America. for Par
is. The French Government has re-
Gently made great efforts to encour-
age the raising silk in France, and
has frequently imported experiment.
tai lots Of worms and eggs from ia
pan via the Suez Canal. Finding
these experiments successful, they
lately sent agents to japan to pur-
chase very large lot, and directed
them TO be shipped across the cont.

route would be both shorter and
cheaper than that by way Of the Suez
Csnal. Accordingly lot, of worms

Some weeks since there appeared in
the Bangor Wig and Courier, over the
signature OF "Vox Populi." an article
purporling TO be written from LEWISTON,
representing that the Fad Congressional
District. aud especially Oxford County,
were for Mr.. Hamlin for u. S. Senator,
by very large majority. The same
writer has an article in recent number
OF the same paper. dated NORWAY, in
which. among other declarations, equally
false and silly. he gravely informs tho
public hat "the editor of the Democrat is
the only Republican in Paris who iayors
lhe election OF Mr.. Perham!' What
ridiculous nonsense, aud how very reli-
able correspondent is the honorable
gentleman. How it shows the aHimitS o;
the man, and his reliability. The truth
is, there is but one man in Paris actively
opposing Mr.. Perham. and we venture to
affirm that out OF the four TO five hundred
Republicans in the town, not = dozen can
be found who oppose him. The gentle.
man in neighboring town, whose per
sOnal hostility" TO Mr.. Porham is 50 great

mouts so far from the truth Us the above,
is overriding the matter. Would he not
be kind enough TO grant Mr.. Perham just
one more friend in his own lown-it would
be so considelate Ii the readers OF the
u big ant Courier are deceived by any
such CHAT as this, they are greeHer Than
we take them 10 be. Tho many friends
of Mr.. Pelham in his own town and

writer, and viii marx him Is 4 Nii!iior Of

OF misrepresentation to be pursued by the
