Ellsworth and the Railroad.

Mr.. EDITOR: | notice that the city OF ELS
| worth will next week vote on the question
whether she will aid the construction of a rail
road to the East to the extent of ten per cent
of her valuation. | have no doubt OF IN at
tirmative vote. This will make Ellsworth tie
western terminus of the shore line, until such
time as Bangor or Bucksport shall build to
Ellsworth. In my judgment that time is some
distance ahead, for two rcasons-yiz: Bangor
will not build, aud Buckspori cannot, because
she has 50 largely invested in her river rail
road. Now, To my mind, Castine, Peuobscot,
BrooksNille, Brooklnc, Sedgwick, Bluehill and
Surry can, bV voting ten per cent. of their val
uation be in better condition to build to ELS
worth than Ellsworth and the eastern towns
can be to put the road through from Ellsworth
to Eastport-or at least in as good condition.
This, you see, will give Us Il through line from
Ellsworth to Castine. Thence we can connect
by ferry to Belfast. No doubt Belfast will aid
in Il line of ferry boats from her wharvcs to
Castine. When this shall be accomplished. all
that Bucksport need do will be to tap the road
at the nearest point between Ellsworth and Cas-
tine, which will be some eight or nine miles.
Bucksport will do this in order to divert the
winter travel and make a feeder for her road TO
Bangor This, YOU see, will give Us our winter
road up river, without expense 10 the shore

CARvER'S HARHOR. Our correspondent at
Carver's Iiarbor writes that the army worm
made its appearance there last Thursday, and
though not so formidable as the western grass
hopper, nevertheless the citizens were obliged
to close their doors and windows to keep them
from their dwellings. They attack the trees
mostly......On Saturday the firm of f. L. Rob
erts Il Bro. was closed by Boston parties. 1t
Is hoped they may soon resume......The foggy
weather of last week was very detrimental to
the fishing interests, and our harbor has been
full of fishing vessels. Porgies continue plenty
and one boat, the Joseph Church, captured $500
barrels last week......The granite company are
extending their buildings to make room for
another of Castles granite polshers. The
company have adopted new and very stringent
rules with the workmen, and whoever spols Il
stone in dressing is discharged. Several go
every day......Rev. Mr.. Nash, of Rockland,
preached in the Universaist church last Sab
bath......T The Advents are still holding forth.
