Centennial Family Party.

The gathering of the Davis family at Rich
mond was one Of the rare reunions We sometimes
read about, and was Leld in honor of the eighty
sixth birthday of Capt. Aaron II. Davis. Capt.
Davis was born in New Hampshire, ard to use
his own words 1--WE mean it in entire respect was
turned GU, in the cold world poor young boy to
beg his bread Che says it with pride} lie went
to sea- and saw much of the world; crused in
the war of 1872 and had many marvellous adven-
tures; rose to command early; gave up the sea
and settled down on well known farm in East
IIallowel, now Chelsea, having married Miss
Abby Pillsbury of Hallowell. He cultivated his
broad acres that slope down to the river, became
"forehanded," and was much looked up to in
public affairs, having held various posts Of honor
in the old town government. A goody number
of children grew up around him and departed to
all parts of the world, finally leaving the old gen
tleman alone with his farm. And when it came
that he was too old to manage it, he went and
settled down quietly in Richmond, Nc, on a snug
little place where he still lives with his worthy
wife, Aunt Abby" both Of them hale and hear

dren spent the day with the happy couple and
there were grand children and great grand chill

glorious old fashioned dinner, and all the 1ruu OF
the season. There were those there who had not
met for over twenty years, and the world is their
home, and when the up river train bore away the
friends to Gardiner and Hallowell in the evening,

Unsolicited Testimony.

FAIRFIELD, Ne, April 28, 1861.
Gentlemen Seeing numerous certificates in
the Maine Farmer, endorsing the merits of the
Great Lung Remedy, WIsTAR's BALsAM OF WILD
CHERRY, am induced and take great pleasure
in giving publicity to the great cure it accomplished
in my family in the year 1856. During the sum
mer of that year my son, Henry A. Archer, now
postmaster in this place, was attacked with splitting
OF blood, cough, weakness of lungs, and general
debility, SO much that our family physician de-
c,ared him to have SEATED consumption. He
was under medical treatment for a number of
months, bnt received no benefit from it. At
length, from the solicitation of himself and others,
! was induced to purchase one bottle of WIsTARs
BALsAM OF WILD CHERRY, which benefited HIM
so much obtained another, which in short time
restored him to his usual state of health. i can
safely recommend this remedy to others in like
condition. for it Is, | think, all it purportsto be-
THE GREAT LUNG REMEDY FOR THE TINES.
The above statement, gentlemen, is my volun-
tary offering to you in favor of your Balsam, and
i, at your disposal.
As ever, yours, ANDREW ARCHER.

Notes from the Camp Ground.

Your correspondent, having little leisure, is
trying to improve the time in a brief visit to the
Grove. find the faithful Superintendent, Mr..
Read has been improving the time since the
meeting in cleaning up the grove, and in various
ways adding to the beauty of these already pleas
ant grounds.
He has apparently made good use of his team,
having cut and hauled considerable wood that
will be cut and housed for the boarding house
and cottages next season. Then there Is the un-
derbiush to be cleared from the addition made to
the enclosure this year, and new avenue to be
cut parallel to Baker. Already several lots have
been taken, upon which cottages will bebuilt next
season. and under favorable circumstances, it will
soon be filled with nice cottages. Fine trees
have been hauled for rustic bridge to span the
ravine below the boarding house, which will be
a great convenience for residents on the south
par, of the grounds. So on the whole the Super
lntendent i'll not be at loss for employment
during the year.
| am informed by member of the Executive
Committee that there will be more wood cut than
will be needed by residents, and that people near
by can be supplied during the winter, with hard
and soft wood.
The meetings OF this season have proved sue
cess, and those who have heretofore been reluc-
tant to invest money in cottages. and other i'm
provements, are now coming forward and will use
their influence and money in advancing the IN
terests of the Association.
1t is acknowledged by all that this place is des
tined to be second to no other Campground in
New England as regards success spiritually.
This enterprise was started with prayer and
| God has honored it signally all the way through.
| There are no outside influences to detract
from the interest of the meetings. and it seems to
| be the one great business to worship God.
wealthy lady from Burnham has sent an order to
the Superintendent to have cottage built this
fall. The plans have arrived and the lumber is
on the spot. Probably in two weeks it will be
finished outside and the inside work will be a
winter job. 1t will cost when finished upwards
of $400. The most expensive on the grounds
1t is to stand on the corner Of Wesley Avenue
and the new avenue spoken of above. The piazza
will extend on both sides with a balcony above,
am told. have foi gotten the lady's name but
she has not been here for three years. She is ex-
pected next week and will superintend the work.
Capt. Alexander Of Richmond, will break
ground this fall preparatory to building splen,
did cottage on Baker avenue, and it is expected
that other Richmond parties will follow his ex-
ample.
! learn that an excursion of Sabbath School
children from Augusta will be made to this place
next week. l think no place so pleasant and con-
venient can be found. S.

Washington, August 20. An examination by
the Indian office of the questions pending be-
tween North Carolina and the Western Chero-
KEGS has led to the unearthng Of q Democratic
swindle extending through three administrations,
and amounting to over S3,OOO,OOO. The
money stolen was appropriated by Congress At
the Cherokees from Northern Georgia and vicni-
ty to the Indian Territory A good portion of
the money appropriated under the treaty of re-
moval went into the hands of those in the Demo-
cratic Ring which managed the all air, and which
through the Illustrations Of Presidents Polk,
Pierce and Buchanan continued to press claims,
present bills and secure appropriation for expen-
ses incurred in the removal. Where the actual
cost Of removal in many cases was only $40 per
head from $50 to $500 was charged. and in the
bills for removals fictitious numbers of Indians
was submitted and allowed. The investigation
thus far has involved number OF
Democratic politicians of the administrations
named, and has shown that the money stolen out
right was not less than $3, 900, 900.
