We have of late lost one of our best and most
influential CITIZENSHIP William H. Small-who
has moved to Wiscasset where we have no doubt
he will be received with most hearty welcome.
Our high school commenced on the 18th inst,
with quite large number Of scholars; some OF our
neighboring towns are availing themselves of the
opportunity Of sending their children to this
school. Mr.. Boynton, the teacher, taught our
town school this winter, and we had one ofthe best
schools we ever had. He is an able and expert
enced teacher, and there is no doubt ofhs success
in the present undertaking.
Quite a number of our young men have found
employment in the Sturgis Mill at Wiscasset,
where both men and boys are employed.
Mr.. J. E. Plummer is going to build house the
coming season, and is already getting the stone
for the foundai ion, and getting out the frame.
Hay buyers have been through this section,
gobbling up what few lots they could, paying
therefor from $40 to Sl2 per ton. large num-
Der of our farmers predict there will be small
crop of hay this year, and they are consequently
holding what they have for q rise.

The Sale of Post Traderships.
The Chronicle to-day publishes an interview
with Rev. j. S. kalloch, formerly of Leaven-
worth, Kansas, in which kalloch stated that he
knew of money being paid by Durfee & Peck to
c. w. Babcock but declined to relate the circum-
stances, saying that he expected to be called be-
fore the Congressional committee, when he would
relate all the facts in his possession.
He also admitted the existence in Kansas of
certain papers that would be damaging if made
public. He intimated that one OF them contained
instructions to Durfee to send certain sums OF
money to c. w. Babcock, executive mansion
Those papers were in the hands of q we'll known
politician in Kansas. He said there was no doubt
among those familiar with affairs in Kansas thai
Durfee & Peck were thoroughly bled, and init
mated that they were set aside because they re
fused to submit to further ex.ortion. kalloch ad
nitted that he knew a great deal in connection
with the affairs of Durfee & Peck, having beef
on intimate terms with the late Commodore Dur
fee.

THE SUCCESSFUL PHYSICIAN,

There is probably no man to whom the commu-
nifty owe SO much as to the honest fair-spoken
physician, who does his actual duty both to him
self and to his patients. Really skillful physicians
are not so numerous that their virtues need no
mention, and hence the advertisement Of DR.. r..
V. Pierce Of Buffalo, may well claim the readers
attention. DR.. Pierce is type of a class OF men
who obtain success by careful and well.directed
effort not attempting too much, or creating false
ideas as to ability. The only reliable physician in
in these days Of complicated disorders and high
pressure living is the J" Specialist, the man who
understands his one branch of business. Such in
his line is DR.. Pierce. For the benefit OF his
readers he has written Common Sense Medi-
cal Adviser, which is well worth the reading
by those who need such work. With
strict business honor. high professional skill, rea-
sonable fees, and large corps of competent as
sstants, DR.. Pierce will doubtless make his name
familiar as " household words.
