The WATER SUPPLY.-Last winter when
the Sebago water was low the water com pany
hired an engine from Capt. w. II. Hall to take
up to the lake, to use in pumping water into
the pipes. The agreement was to pay $50 for
it for three months. Mr.. Hall claims that it
was understood that it would not be used but
little, but on the contrary has been used every
day and night since. Owing to the constant
use to which the engine has been put Capt
Hall claims 5000 for the use of it. The com
pasy refuse to pay it, and as the lease was up
last night, Mr.. Hall went to Sebago to claim
the engine. 1t is rumored that the supply of
water will be shut off until another one can be
put in its place. The case will probably be
carried into court.
A STRANGE AFFA1R.-Last Monday after
noon Mr.. Horatio G. Quincy of this city star :
ed for Boston. He left his home and went to
the depot and did not remember another thing
until Tuesday morning when he found himself
in the police station in Lewiston. He was very
much confused and asked where he was. The
officers told him, and sent for gentleman in
the city whom knew Mr.. Quincy. The gentle
man sent for physician, who said that he
was suffering from rush of hood to the head.
After he had recovered sufficiently he was
sent to this city. Yesterday be was better, but
was quite feeble. He fell from building some
time since and his head has troubled him sew
eral times since. This is rather mysterious
case as the train for Lewiston does not leave
for several hours after the Boston train.

Correspondence 0fMe 1imes.)

Sir,-Recent denials neCessitate a clear eX-
PLANTATION. A few weeks ago, the German re-
representatives. at Paris, London, st. Petersburg,
Vienna, and Rome officially complained Of
France pushing her ornaments with a view to
an early resumption of war. OF the language
used on this occasion, it will suffice to quote
what General Won Schweinitz said at Vienna
-'That it was owing to Germany's long suf-
fering that war had not yet broken OUT So
deep was the impression produced by these
announcements at St. Petersburg, that the
Car telegraphed to the German Emperor en-
treating him to postpone operations until he
had had an opportunity of speaking to him at
Berlin, on his way to Ems. Before the Cars
arrival, Count Sch0uvalOff passed through Ber-
lin on his way back to London. lie dined
with the Emperor, and repeatedly conferred
with the Chancellor. What he then learnt did
not prevent his suggesting on his return to
London the expediency of Great Britain co.
operating with Russia in behalf of Peace. Soon
after this the Emperor of Russia arrived at
Berlin and was warmly received by his Impe.
rial relative. Before leaving the Prussian Ca
pital, the Emperor of Russia received the lead
ing members of the Diplomatic Body, and, de-
voting a few moments to each of them, told
the representatives of the Powers that Peace
was insured. Prince G0rtchakoff, initiating
his Sovereign's example, addressed a commu-
nieation to the same effect to the Russian
ENJOYS abroad, and before despatchiDg it read
the contents to the leading members of the Di.
plomatic Body at Berlin.
Great Britain's share in the affair consisted
in Lord Odo Russell's being instructed to ten
der the good Offices OF his Government, in case
there was any reason to apprehend a misunder-
standing between Germany and France. Prince
Bismarck, in reply, said there was no reason to
apprehend anything of the kind, and that he
feltsunder deep obligation to the British Gov
eminent forsthe friendly intimation he had re.
ceiysd from them.l
Iase aa ] am. Sir, yours very truly.
