FINE WoRK.-There is now to be seen at the
book store of Hall L. Davis huge ledger man
ufactured by him for the Casco National Bank
1t is double royal, fourteen pages to the week,
with six days to the leaf. A leaf shows the
exact state of each depositor's account on any
given day. and does away with the necessity
of blotters and journals. Ledgers of this kind
are in use in many large cities, but the one on
exhibition is the first one TO be used in any
bank in Portland. The workmanship is excel
lent, the rules are finely penciled, and the back
is SO we'll bound that it will 'lay OPEN at any
page desired. ar
Mr.. Davis has just finished fine ledger of
$50 pages for Twitchell, Champlin & Co., and
is finishing full sets of books for the new Man
ufacturers' National Bank Of Lewiston, and for
the New Savings Bank in the same city.

A HARD TRIP.-The revenue cutter Dallas
got in yesterday afternoon from her trip to the
eastward to supply the life-saving stations
with life-boats, rockets, &c. The trip was a
very severe one, both going and coming. On
the way down the cutter passed through great
fields of ice, frequently ten miles wide and
stretching out to sea far as the eye can reach.
The harbors were nearlysall obstructed. While
endeavoring to supply the life.station at
Brownie Island the vessel got caught at Moose
peck Reach, and was frozen in from the 14th
to the 21st. The ice was so thick that there
was no difficulty at all in travelling to the shore.
However the vessel got away at last, and sue
ceeded in supplying the life stations at Brownie
Island No. 3, Cross Island No. 2, West Quoddy
No. l, and Whitehead No. 4. The warm wealth
er of Tuesday broke up the ice to some extent
and partially opened all the harbors.
The cutter reports the schooner George Glen
den, Jewett, of Boston, from st. John, N. b.
bound to New York, loaded with laths, Finley
master, at Boothbay. She was frozen in the
ice at Seal Harbor for ten days. Will proceed
to New York as soon as the weather permits.

Gen. Bartlett's manly speech at Lexington
is still bringing forth good fruit. The latest
expression Of approval is in the form of long
letter from the ex. Confederate Gen. Fitzhugh
Lee. After declaring his hearty commenda-
ton of all that Gen. Bartlett said, Gen. Lee con-
tinues: "Just such soldierly sentiments, gen.
erously felt and expressed, will do more in a
brief space of time toward restoring good
feeling, fraternity and fellowship between
the two sections Of q common country than
all the reconstruction eloquence of political
partisans delivered during these past ten
years. Your words in reference to Federal
soldiers are equally applicable to the Confed-
crate soldiers, for they too 'have q prejudice in
favor of peace, and 1 fully agree with you
that between the soldiers of the two great
sections of our great country frater-
nal relations were established long ago,
and we feel that if such q felicitous
companionship of sentiment could have found
q resting place in the hearts of other classes
of people, the rehabilitation of the South
would long since have been assured. Its
speedy redemption from poverty and desola-
ton would have followed, and once more as
in years ago. the North would have had the
active cooperation OF the South in working
out glorious destiny for the Republic.
Therefore, when we hear such utterances fall
from the lips Of one who SO bravely bore him
self as Federal soldier, we begin to look for
ward with new hopes and confidence to the
day when the American flag, which now floats
over the blue and gray, shall in truth be en-
blazoned with the emblem, Peace on earth,
good will to men,"

An Exact Stat stefan.

The present plethora of statistics reminds
us of the story of commission appointed in
France to calculate the number of eggs laid in
the country in the year 1872. When the re.
ports had all arrived and the calculations ali
been made, it was found that the total was
forty-one thousand and fifty millions two hun
dred and twenty-five thousand one hundred
and three and half! Why this half? The
calculations were all gone over again, but this
half conld not be got rid of. There was great
sensation at the Ministry of Commerce; in all
the corridors nothing was to be seen but Sec
retaries, under secretaries, clerks and messen-
gers coming and going, and all busted about
this half egg.
At last one of the clerks found report
from Mayor in the Franche- Comte, stating
that in his district the number of eggs laid
had been seventy-two thousand and a half.
A special messenger was at once sent to the
Mayor to find out what he could possibly
mean by this half egg. "Sir, answered the
honest man, 81 took notice of the fact that
one of the hens in my district laid an egg on
the boundary of my department. As a law
abiding man. I could not make return of
not more than half of this egg. Had my col
league on the other side been as correct as I
was, the two halves would have been COM
pleted, and you would have had your number
of eggs entire" The worthy Mayor was
thoroughly in the right, but the story seems
to show that the story of accurate statistics
may be carried too far.-PtctoriaI World.
