In speaking of Judge Peters, who presided at
the recent term OF court in Ellsworth, the Ameri-
can says
Judge Peters was at home both in and out of
the Court house; and gave universal satisfaction
TO counsel, juries and parties, by his promptness,
fairness and the singular cearness and simplicity,
of his rulings; while many Of his old friends en-
joyed his society the street and at the old home
stead and expressed the wish that he might often
preside at the sittings of our Court"
At the auction sale on Saturday afternoon, of
the goods and effects of John D'Arthenay, the
most valuable portion-"Young Fearnaught -
was not offered for sale. Certain parties present
wanted the animal very much. but wished to give
but very little money. The animal will be sold
on Thursday without reserve, when probably the
creditors will take measures to protect their rights
they being unwilling that this valuable animal
should be "sold for song" On Saturday the
sleighs, wagons, pungs, harness. blankets, robes,
&C., were all sold.

in his remarks last Saturday evening. he did not
fully endorse the basis Of this new association.
The matter looked to him very much like church
and society-the church composed Of protesting
christians, and the society of respectable, moral
men who help the church in its work. He hadn't
much faith in an organization of that kind. He
would have the church stand by Itself, pay its own
bills and do its own work. But this would not
deter him from taking hold Of this work. He
wished it distinctly understood that he stood on
the teetota pledge. 1t will be found that the most
Of those who sign the first pledge will do but little
they will leave the organization severely alone
the teetotal men will have to do the work and sus-
tain the club. A small number Of these men,
abiding by the principle of total abstinence, will
do the work, and the ornamental men will amount
to but little
Ira d. Sturgis and Joshua Nye was appointed
on the Employment Committee, but Mr.. Nye de-
clined, not because he was opposed to the organi-
cation, but because the duties of the position
would too much interfere with his business.
r. Mckinney was appointed on the Vigilance
Committee, but declined.
The meeting then adjourned to next Saturday
evening.
