last. The President sends such copies and says
that in no case had troops been increased in antic-
ipation Of the election, except the sending Of an
officer and "A men to Petersburg, Va, where vio-
lence was expected. He thinks, however, that If
more troops had beed available 1t would have been
his duty to dispose of them in several States with
view to the prevention Of violence and intimida-
ton, which had undoubtedly contributed to the
defeat Of the election case In Missipp; also Geor

1t was not necessary for the enforcement OF The

purpose to administer the executive power faith
fully, and not to disregard or transcend the limits
of the Constitution.

to q select committee of eleven to inquire and

PORTLAND.
A Dispute.

PORTLAND, January %. A dispute has arisen
between the proprietors of the Cumberland paper
mills, s. d. Warren & Co, Of Boston, and the
Oriental powder mills, regarding supply of water
in Presnmpseot river. The powder mills own the
head dam at the outlet Of the lake. The Cumber
land Mills people sent men up Jan. llth, who rails
ed the flood gates and held possession, guarding
them night and day. On the 10Th the powder
mills folks drove them away and shut down the
gates. The paper mill men rallied and regsned
possession, which they hold with thirty men.
The powder company have applied for an injunc-
ton, which will be heard before Judge Virgin on
Wednesday morning. II Is feared that the water
supply OF the city may be endanged.
