Portland Business
In continuation of our articles on the jobbing
dry goods interest of Portland, says one of our
Portland exchanges, we find the next upon our
list to be the firm of Locke, Twitchell & Co. This
house was started in August, 1867, and is there
fore an outgrowth of the new energies developed
with the rebuilding of the city. The firm name
was originally Locke, Meserve & Co., and so con-
tinued until July, 1870, when Mr. Meserve retired.
In January, 1873, Mr.. Locke also retired from the
firm, and new copartnershp was formed, con-
ssting of the present members, viz; Messrs. IL.
p. Storcr, T. L. Twitchell, J. M. Fifeld, NJ L.
Bolster, II. l.. Sturtevant and S. l.. Rolfe. The
firm of Locke, Twitchell Il Co. have made gain
of over thirty per cent. in amount of sales since
the first year of business, Notwithstanding de-
probation in the value of goods during the past
seven years of about sixty per cent. In other
words their sales have nearly doubled in that time
and their trade is considerably in excess of a mil
lion dollars per aunum.
The force employed consists, all together, of
twenty five men, nine Of whom are upon the road
taking orders for goods. The store is at Nos: "a
and Sc Middle street, and is hundred and fifty
feet in depth, with front of fifty feet; and three
floors are occupied for the storage and display Of
goods.

The Philadelphia Press, referring to
the recital by Mr.. NOrdhOff, ia a recent
Herald letter, of a case of barberous
treatment of a colOred woman in Missis-
sippi, says: Estates where the scene he
relates, is possible, can not be governed
on the same principles and in the same
way in which Pennsylvania is gov
erned." There is unquestiOnably a
great deal of deviltry practised in Mis-
sissippi which gees unpunlshed, but as
that State has been under Republican
rule, in every sense OF the word, for
eight or nine years, the party who pro-
fess to be the champions of law, order
and liberty, is entirely responsible tor
the infamous treatment of the colored
girl referred to, and for numerous other
acts of lawlessness. The Press evident
~ overlooked the fact that Radical Off
cials have allowed these disorders to go
on freehanded for so long. But it seems
to US that Mississippi Republicans COVE
ern that State just about the same way
in which their brethren govern the
great State of Pennsylvania, where a
horde of cut-thrOat miners hold large
portion of the territory in reign Of
terror; shoot men down with impunity,
set fire to and destroy valuable manu-
featuring establishments, murder poor
Italian miners in cold blood and set the
Governor al. defiance. 1t is rather bad
argument to bring Pennsylvania for
ward as a model for the country. There
is to-day more widespread lawlessness
there than in the State of Mississippi,
under unprincipled carpet-bag rule

Overdressed schoolgirls.

An American family in which were
several girls came to live in this city
some time last year. The parents had
moved in a good social circle, and had
been held in considerable esteem in the
town where they previously resided.
They were respectable but not rich.
When living comfortably, they refused
to spend more than they could afford
for dress. Ina short time the eldest girl,
who was about thirteen or fourteen
years of age, and very anxious to 90 on
with her education, became a pupil at
one of the public schools. She re-
manned there only few weeks, being
fairly driven away by taunts and sneers
which were leveled at her on account
of her homely apparel. After q short
interval she tried another school, but
with the same result. She was avoided
by the other girls, treated with neglect
and supercilieusness, and at last was
obliged to leave. The consequence
was that neither she nor her sisters at
tended any school, and thus for the
sake of an unseemly abuse, which it is
the interest OF everybody to put down,
the education of those children ceased.

Rev. James C. Elliott was born in 1899
and died June 5th, 1875. Fer fifty years
he was actively engaged in preaching
the Gospel as a minister of the Cumber-
land Presbyterian Church. Although
denied the privileges of obtaining an
education, he has accomplished great
good. Many are the stars in the crown
OF his rejoicing.
Throughout Middle Tennessee and
North Alabama he was well known and
in a thousand households will the mem
Ory of "Uncle Jimmie" be cherished,
and the story of his earnest but I'M
affected piety handed down from gene
ration to generation. He continued to
labor for the Church up to his death.
OF him it can be truly said: she fell at
the post Of honor"
Out of large family he leaves only
widowed daughter to mourn his death.
His wife and eight children had "gone
before"
Many more distinguished men are
less deserving a biography, and we have
no doubt that the Church will preserve
the record of Uncle Jimmie's labOrs in
some appropriate and durable form.

Observation-Disclosures Escape,

The escape of Breckenridge after the
surrender of Lee waR quite romantic.
Accompanied by Colonel Wilson of his
staff, he made his way to Florida,
where the two refugees were Joined by
Colonel Taylor Wood, the brother-in-
law of Jefferson Davis. Securing a
small skiff, they boldly embarked, near
Key West, for Cuba, and succeeded in
reaching the port of Cardenas, near
Havana, in safety. From thence Gen
eral Breckenridge proceeded to Europe,
and finally took up his residence in
Canada. The last years of his life were
spent quietly in Kentucky. General
Breckenridge leaves one son who bears
his name, and another, who curiously
enough, was christened "Owen
County," in honor of the county which
secured the election of his father to
Congress in 1853, In the contest with
Gov. fletcher.

great credit for the prompt manner in
which they have enforced it. We no
longer see the large crowds, both white

their old haunts and make, at least,
some effort TO gain an honest living.
