a. l.. Brown,

We spent a pleasant evening few days Since,
in the room Of the Warren band. Mr. A. ID. Ba-
ker, leader Of Marlboro band is giving lessons to
the band here. lie possesses all the elements Of
a teacher, be it in music or elsewhere. A thor
ough knowledge of all parts enables him to de-
tetect the leas: error. His style is good but the
power of leading and making things snap marks
his work as superior. The band here is composed
of fine class of men, musicians in TASTE and un-
der their presen tuition added to their former
quirements, must place them upon grand footing
Tor this Centennial year.
We of Warren have reason to rejoice, for this is
our own town Centennial. We notice some
though concerning double celebration for the
4th We hope that there is patriotism and pride
enough to do something. 1t won't hurt US. The
hard times will not be mentioned hundred years
to come, but the celebration will be praise-wor-
thy act and be so commemorated IN history, years
to come. We cant all be at Philadelphia, nor
will it be convenient to visit our neighboring
towns. Better use our money and energies here.
VIII not our town authorities take the hint and do
the liberal !?
A correspondent in the Camden Herald suggests
Mount Pleasant fine and commanding elevation
in the northeast part of town, as the place to
meet. Perhaps so. We shall be nearer to the
place of good, to say the least, our view will be
grand, as not only. will good portion Of
Knox county be in sight with its varied
scenery OF village and farm, forest and TIL
lage, but Penobscot Bay and old ocean is
plainly seen. Besides entelpri>ing citizen,
Minot Tolman with his sons, has graded, or near
ly so, good road to the very summit. Let us do
something on the mountain or in the valley, we
care little which, only something aid that some
thing when all will be most pleased
Mr.. J. W. Kellogg has just finished his canvass
of the county IN the interest OF the American BIZ
Die Society and directly employed by the Aux-
liary society Of Warren. He reports visiting
every house, selling ninety two books of various
description, giving away about twenty five; finding
twenty-five tamlies without complete copies of
the bible and collecting upwards of $50 Tor the
cause. We found him pleasant man and he
found a cordial welcome to every house.
We glad to see that our postmaster is get
ting good long list of subscribers for the Cam
paign Journal. Blaine is our man, and the kenne-
bee Journal is our paper. Nor is it fact that
only list Of the Campaign journal is being taken,
but the regular weekly is increasing its list almost

Forty.Fourth Congress First Session.

Washington, May %.
Sherman submitted following Resolved, that
the Secretary of the Treasury be directed to fur
nish to the Senate detailed estimate of the
amount that would be required to execute the
House bill amendatory of laws granting pensions
to the soldiers and sailors of the Of 1872, and
widows. Agreed to.
Before reaching any decision the doors were re-
opened at 5.45, and the Senate adjourned
HOUSE.
Piper offered an amendment retaining the navy
yaids at Brooklyn, Mare Island, Kittery, Charles
town. Pensacola, Norfolk and League Island for
general purposes, and the yard at Washington for
manufacturing purposes only, and retaining New
London as naval station
Watt of Connecticut, opposed the discontinue
ance OF New London navy yard.
Lewis spoke in support Of his amendment and
characterized the navy yard at New London as
situated on a narrow river, wherc q first class
steamer could not turn around wtnout the most
careful management. Watt defended New Lon
don from structures of Lewis, and said the propo-
sition to recede the navy yard at New London
was not economy, the government had already
expended over $4,000 in improving that yard.
Randall offered the following amendment as a
substitute for Lewis amendment for the civil es-
tablishment Of the several navy yards. The Sec
rotary OF the Navy IS hereby directed to organize
naval board of five commissioned officers IN the
navy as practicable, whose duty it shall be
to examine fully, and determine whether in their
opinion any of the navy yards be dispensed
with and abandoned, and if so to report the best
way of making disposition of the same, and fur
Their to enquire to the propriety of establishing
a naval rendezvous at Tybee Island, or at Cock
spur Island, in the State of Georgia, and whether
any government property at said ISLANDS can be
made available and are suitable for such purpose,
and said board shall through the secretary OF the
navy, report to Congress at commencement Of
next session, the result of their inquiry. $50 900
isherewth appropriated to meet expenses incurred
by said board.
He said he would be sorry to abolish any navy
yard on the recommendation of any gentlemen
who had never seen it. He thought the House
should call to its aid scientific men who under.
stood their business.
Committee rose and reported bill which was
thereupon passed. House then went into conven-
ton on Indian appropriation bill. Without max
ing any progress III the bill, Blackburn offered
resolution authorizing the Louisiana investigating
committee to act by subcommittee. Adopted.

Application was made by his wife to town author
tiles, to take him to the insane hospital. Papers
were made out to that effect. but his relatives
watch over him, which was done. Lately he has
appeared BETTER and seemed more rational. To
day his youngest child, Maud Finn, four years
old, did not attend school owing to the weather
Just after dinner the little child ran out in the
wood house, leaving her mother in the dining
room. A few minutes afterwards, Mrs Finn
heard scream, and ran into the woodshed, where
she found the girl on the floor dead. Her throat
was cut from car to ear, and her head split wide
open with an axe. Mr.. Finn was not to be found.
Search was Immediately made for him, and at six
o'clock he had not been found.
The last seen of him was by Mr.. Burgess

just killed his little girl with axe and now they
would string him up. A coroners inquest will be
held in the morning.
