In several towns in this County, much
interest has lately been feltby the dlscov-
cry OF metals of value in several localities
In S+nehill, Brooklin, Mt. Desert, Ellis
worth, Surry, Lamoine and Sedgwck,
veins OF ore OF more or less richness have
been found. These ores are lead. copper
and silver.
The two most prominent localities are
that at Bluehill and that at Sedgwick the
former producing copper and the latter
silver. The lands, where the veins are,
have been conveyed TO joint stock compan-
ie,, who at the present time are operating
them. The assays OF the ores obtained.
give pure metal in sufficiently remureratlve
qualities /" variant the Company in erect
ing smelling works aud operating on an
extensive scale.
Great expectations are entertained Of the
value OF the mine at Byard's Pointiu sedg.
wick The Company formed IS called the Eg-
gemoggin Silver Mining Company. aud its
capitol stock is 500, 900. Buildings are now
in process OF erection for the machinery
for crushing aud smelling the ore and
p men are engaged in mining Capt Chss.
Deering of Portland Is the President OF the
Company. and 4. L. Currier Of Sedgwick,
Superintendent. Shares in the stock of
the Company are in great demand among
the people OF the vicinity, scarcely day
passing without more or less being taken.
Several assays of the ore have been made
by competent assayers who have reported
the value OF silver in the same 10 be from
sl0j to s220 per ton. These assays were
made in May. The last made from ore
last produced was IN July, by +. L. Bart
lett, State assayer, and averages s22G per
ton.
Prof. Names of New Haven has also ex-
amined the mine and reports that he knows
of no better located Mineral Property or
one that offers greater inducements for
extensive mining and smelling operati ons.
Al the present time. il appears as if the
enterprise at Sedgwick would prove a sue
cess. II certainly promises better Hotc,
than any other in the State of which we
have knowledge; and If so, il must be OF
!ucalculable benefit to the County, not only
from the resources which it will develop
but also, from the employment which 1t
will give to the labo:ing population for
whom the demand i now SO limited and
who receive in other pursuits. so small a
remuneration.

sCHENCk's SEA WEED Tonic - In the al
mosphere experienced here during the sum
mer months, the lethargy produced by the
heat takes away the desire for wholesome
food, and frequent perspiratlons reduce bodily
energy, particularly those suffering from the
effects Of debilitating diseases. In order to
keep natural healthful activity of the system,
We must resort to artificial means For thi,
purpose Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic is very
efectual. few doses will create an appetite
and give fresh Vigor 10 the enervated body .
For dyspepsia, ii is invaluable. Many eminent
physicians have doubted whether dyspepsia
can be permanently cured by the drugs which
are generally employed for that purpose. The
Sea Weed Tonic in its nature is totally differ
ent from such drugs. 1t contains no corrosive
minerals or acids; in fact 1t assists the regular
operations OF nature, and supplies her defc
iencies. The tonic in It's nature so much re-
sembles the gastric juice that it is almost
identical with that fluid. The gastric juice is
the natural solvent which, in n healthy eondit-
ion OF the oody Causes the food to be digested:
and when this juice is not excreted in sufficient
quantities, indigestion, with all its distressing
symptoms, follows. The Sea Weed Tonic per-
forms the duty Of the gastric juice when the
latter is deficient. Schenck's SeaWeed Tonic
sold by all Druggists.

A special from Montreal gives the fol-
lowing account of the killing OF Thomas
Hackett:
Amer dozen shots had been fired, a
tall. strange man, name not known. took
hold OF Hacketts left hand. and a fearful
duel followed, each holding revolver ia
his right hand. and each firing al the other,
while both struggled for The mastery.
The crowd also kept firing during the life
and d-death struggle. At last. after wrest-
ling some time, sometimes siaDdin.
sometimes on their knees. Hackett went
under, and his antagonist, putting the
mnzZle OF his revolver 10 Hackeu's temple
shot him dead instantly.
Hackett was of medium height. with
thin face, dark straight hair, slight, and
/ thin mustsche. He wore a dark coat,
with trousers and the rest of tweed OF a
reddish mixture, but had no regalia, or
/ sign, or colors on at the time.
After the ARRAY, silver-mOunted re
volyer was picked up on the door step.
This pistol belonged to Hackett. The
crowd fingered long time on Victoria
square, in front OF Dunn's, but no attempt
TO dispense il was made BY the police,
who reached the scene OF the riot In force,
in time to remove the body, and returned
10 the central station almost Immediately.
