AN INTERESTING SUIT AT LAw.-The County
Commissioners of Androscoggin county laid
out road across Little River about mile be-
low Lisbon Falls. The town of Lisbon proceed.
ed to bridge the river throwing span across
from the western bank to an island and build
ing solid causeway from the other side of the
island to the eastern shore, thus diverting the
entire current of the river into the western
channel. In October of 1871 large freshet &C.
Cured and considerable damage was done
along the river, including the undermining Of.
about three fourths of az acre of land on which
stood house and its out buildings, all of which
excepting barn, were swept away and des.
troyed. The owner, Mr.. William Dunnine of
this city, brought his action against the inhab-
itants of the town of Lisbon for the amount of
his loss on the ground that it resulted from the
improper diversion of the river from its natural
channel. The case develops many interesting
legal points for settlement 1t is now on trial
at Bath, Judge Virgin presiding. w. Put
nam and M. NJ. Loud of this city appear for the
plaintiff and Joseph Baker and Frye & Cotton

THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART.

meeting OF the subscribers to this institution
and OF persons Interested In art was held at the
Museum last night with the object of taking
to for this city the possession OF the
Di Cesnola collection. The attendance was large,
and considerable interest was manifested in the
proceedings b. those present. Mr.. Taylor John
ston, the President, explained the object OF the
meeting and the necessity that existed
for immediate action, paying, in the
course oil his remarks, handsome
tribute to the generous patriotism OF General
Cesnola. Mr.. Prime and Professor Anderson OF
Rochester University, spoke eloquently and learn
edy as to the value OF the collection in Illustrating
the history and growth OF art, and how Grecian
art was Influenced in its infancy by Ph1nicians
and Egyptians In this Cyprate collection the
missing link Is found which connects the perfect
sculptures OF the Parthenon with the ruder efforts
OF more primitive races, and we can trace the rise
and growth OF plastic art from the first dawn OF
art thought In the Ph9nican mind thousands
OF years ago to its perfect development
under the chlse OF Phydias. In no
other collection are the progressive stages
OF tue plastic art so clearly marked, and IN none
other are the influences Of different races IN
building up the perfect works OF the Greeks so
clearly recorded. General regret was lelt IN
Europe at the loss OF this unique collection, and It
would certainly be dlsgraccul II the citizens OF
New YORK allowed 1t to be dispersed. Had General
ID Cesnoa simply sought pecunary return for
his abors he could have disposed OF his collection
piecemeal IN Europe TO advantage. But in order
TO to his adopted country the benefit Of his
researches General Cesnoa refused every offer, and
1t remains for the American people to show little
OF the patriotic feeling displayed 10y an adopted
citizen. some gentlemen well known in the art
world have contributed generously, and there can
be no doubt that the general public Will do the
little that remains to be DONE sum OF $50, 000 in
addition to what mas already been subscribed Is all
that is required to secure the permanence OF the
collection in America. The sum Is only tritle and
II people interested In art would only take mod
crate interest IN the matter the difficulty
would soon be solved. The following gentle.
men have contributed the sans placed
after their names:-John Taylor Johnston, $4,000;
