AUTHORIZATIONS.

Scarcely an appropriation has been made for
special purposes. A few settlers have got lots
OF land, but the mass of the resolves appropri-
ating from two hundred to two thousand dol
lors for this apd that purpose, go very slow. II
is a hard season for them. Hard times are
felt very keenly throughout the state, and
never were the servants of the people more in
accord with them. II various parties with
fancy schemes get what they think they ought
to have and say they expect, are not reminded
during the next three weeks that doubtful
things are mighty uncertain, then 1 can't tell
the direction of the wind by the straws.
PERSONAL.
One OF the brightest and briskest of the
members of the House is the eldest or nearly
its Oldest member-James Nowland Of Dalton,
Aroostook county. He first went to Aroostook
with battalion of the regular army when
Hancock barracks was post at Houltcn. He
was first sergeant After going with his COM
mand to fight Indians in Florida for time, he
was discharged and returned to Hodgdop,
wher, he was engaged in farming until the
late rebellion, when he enlisted in the 18th
Regiment and was soon after promoted to Ad-
jutant, in which capacity he served three years
or more. Although now about threescore and
ten, he is active and writes the best business
hand of any man in the House.

SHIPWRECKED CREws.-The BERN

SHIPwRECKED CREws.-The Bermuda
brought to this port on her last trip the crews
of two shipwrecked schooners who had met
with severe experience. The Grace Girde,
of and from Boston for the Bay of Islands, was
wrecked near st. Peters in the storm of Jan.
9th and abandoned. The crew of six men
worked their way to Halifax and arrived in this
city as above.
The Bethsaida, of and from Eastport, Maine,
for the same port, was totally wrecked on
Longley, Miquelon, and the crew of seven men
were three days and nights without food or
sleep. When nearly exhausted they were res
cued by three French fishermen, and arrived at
Halifax on the same day with these of the
Groce Girde. By queer coincidence the cap
tain of the Bethsaida, Captain Worcester, is a
father of the captain of the Grace Girdle, and
all came on together from Halifax. The men
lost everything and are endeavoring to reach
their homes in Boston. They are now at the
lodging room at the police station.

MAINE GENERAL HosPITAL.-Mr. Samuel
Lincoln, who fell on the sidewalk Friday, was
taken to the Maine General Hospital Saturday
for treatment. 1t was at first thought that he
had fractured his hip. A consultation was had
Saturday at the Hospital, and it was found
that his injuries were not SO severe, and he had
only received bad bruise.
Thomas Burrowes, who was injured at the
Bosom steamers, is quite comfortable again,
and hopes are entertained of his recovery.

G. c. Couillard, of the Boston Herald, has
been in Waterville for several weeks, sick with
sick with nervous prOstration.
The numerous friends of Mr.. Horace P.
Mann in this vicinity will be pleased to know
that he is in no way involved by the acts of the
notorious Winslow. The following under the
editorial he ad of the Post speaks for itself:
About three months after the reorganization
OF the Boston Post Company Mr.. Winslow en-
gagged the services of Mr. FL. p. Mann, now
President OF the Company, as business manager,
acting under him as Treasurer of the corpora,
ton, aud from the day that Mr.. Mann entered
upon the duties of his position he carried on the
entire business management of the paper. In
no sense has Mr.. Mann, as has been stated,
acted as private secretary to Mr. Winslow.

evening of February 1st to listen to remarks
from Nelson Leighton and Charles Choate of
the Portland Reform Club. The people were
much interested in Mr.. leighton, and his lee
