NEWPORT, r. l., June II, 1870.
The imperial party left New York this morning by
the eight O'Clock train for New Haven, where His
Majesty hoped TO meet Professors Dana and LOOMS,

On the arrival Of the train at New Haven the

well pleased with the Faculty.

the professors the Empress drove about the town,
which she found pretty and interesting
Nothing OF interest occurred on the journey until
we arrived at New London, where His Majesty wit

glimpse Of the distinguished visitors.
Carriages were in waiting at the landing. and
their Maicstics were ut once driven TO the Aquid-
neck House.
Soon after their arrival, Captain Breese, OF the
Torpedo station, called 10 present lis compliments
and to offer the courtesics o! the sta ton TO the En-
peror. Captain Breesc stated that on account OF TO
morrow being Sunday the workmen would be mostly
away, but he would be glad 10 show His Majesty as
much OF the station rs possible. The Emperor
thanked Captain Drecse and appointed twelve
O'Clock tomorrow the hour for his visit.
Among those who came to the wharf to meet their
Maesties was the historian Bancroft The meeting

Temperance in Hiram.

To the Editor OF the Press:
A delegation from the Denmark Reform
Club came Down here Sunday, April 23d, and
held meeting. To the surprise and joy of
all, many of our young men of Incorporate
habits, unsolicited, came forward and signed
the iron clad pledge A Reform Club was Or
ganized the next Tuesday evening. More than
one hundred signed the pledge, and still they
come. We have very efficient club composed
mostly of men who have never identified them
selves with any temperance organization nor
have heen considered temperance men. The
whole town is alive upon the question. The
cider sellers are.trembling; in fact some have
closed up and like Davy Crockett's coon have
come right down. Last Sunday the club, ac-
companed by nearly hundred friends, went
to West Baldwin and held a meeting. The
Methodist church was filed, and it is safe to
say that there never was Temperance meeting
in that town so enthusiastic and so thoroughly
in earnest. The sad stories, the fearful tempta-
tions, the firm resolves, the imprisoned ap-
peas, the entire reliance upon God for help, i'm
pressed the vast audience with the genuineness
of the reform and the unmistakable since rity
Of the reformers. Tho interest was at fever
heat when it was announced that a drunken
man was at the door and wanted to sign the
pledge. "Let him come in" was passed, and
reeling haggard, intoxicated fellow being
was led up to the stand, aud amid cheers, tears
and rejoicings, he placed his signature to the
iron clad. 1t melted the whole assembly to
tears. 1t was an appeal too powerful to be re-
sisted, and men, women and children rushed to
the stand and sixty determined citizens of that
town wrote their names, a Ia John Hancock.
The club will meet there again Tuesday even
ing, May 3d. to organizs a reform club.

The School Committee of Rockland were in
town the other day looking for model school
house. They at last accepted the plan drawn
by Mr. Kimball for the Centennial.
Portland is not to be illustrated by the Graph
ic after all, owing to the lack of support from
our citizens.
The truckmen are to start an express be-
tween here and Biddeford to compete with Mil
.iken's express.
Special revival meetings will be held in the
vestry of Casco street church each evening dur
ing the present week. All are cordially invit-
ed.
Attention is called to the announcement of
Bosworth Post G. A. R, to the observation of
Memorial Day. In no city has the day been
more appropriately observed than in Portland.
AS usual, the Post is obliged to call for aid, and
there is no doubt but that the call will be as
cordially responded to as heretofore.
This afternoon the SOOth performance of
Davy Crockett, by Mr.. Mayo, will be given at

DAvY CRoCKETT.-Mr Mayo's admirable
study of the backwoodsman commends itself to
the delightful attention of all theatre-goers of
taste as one of the finest dramatic Performance
es of the day. and those who miss seeing it miss
excellent acting. 1t is seldom that Portland is
favored with anything better in the theatrical
line, and Music Hall should be packed at every
performance of "Davy Crockett"
This afternoon special matinee will be given
for the benefit of ladies and children. The
prospect of an afternoon passed in so delight
full company as that of ''Davy" as interpreted
by Mr. Mayo ought to fill the house, This
evening the play will be given for the last time,
and our advice is to those who have not been,
90 at once, and to those that have been, go
again.
