A large portion of the ice consumed in this
city comes from Maine. In recent letter
to the New York World, from Augusta in that
State, we find much interesting information
regarding the production of this article. We
have only room for the following extract:
Seven or eight years ago there were only
: few companies engaged in the ice business.
The great cities had not learned to appreciate
the quality of the Kennebec article. Now,
however, siXty-three firms and companies are
full of business along the eighteen miles, with
about 81, 100000 of capital invested feet of
$50 schooners is in demand; and from six to
-se+sen thousand men find EMPLOYMENT in cut
ting and packing the ice in the winter and
loading the vessels in summer The indica-
lions OF the Thermometer are to all concerned
of quite as much Importance and watched
with almost as much interest as Is the stock

William Cullen Dyrant.

"Byrant is deadw What a knell were
these words, read and repeated from
mouth to mouth, to the hearts of thou
sands Of his countrymen, Of thousands in
foreign lands. OF more importance than
any news from the famous Peace Con.
gress, Of greater moment than any politi'
cal moves, seemed these three words, and
. grief as sincere fell upon 10, oyer the
departure Of this private citizen, IS Ger.
many felt over the threatened death Of
her good Emperor.
A poet is dead. A poet who came 10
fame with Byron, and though perhaps
not of his transcendant genius, yet Of bet
ter and more lasting influence; both OF
melancholic and retiring disposition, the
one flashed, disheartened, was feared and
died; the other burned steadily, encour'
aged, endeared himself 70 all, and only
died after long and useful life, having
earned for himself that strangest Of all
loves, and pdeest, the love Of one tor him
"whom he hath not seem" For not one
in thousand of the genuine mour ners
for William Cullen Byrant, have ever be.
held his face.
An editor IL dead. An editor who
might have left more beautiful creations
Of his poetic genius, had not the same
pen been needed to combat error and
fight for truth, when the chances for vic
tory seemed slender. The Evening Post
in his hands earned the respect of friends
and opponents.
A good man Is dead A man in all
whose writings, is no impure word or
thought. Whose whole aim has been to
benefit his kind. OF deep religious SEN
timent yet Of NO sectarian bias, his
words always teach trust, and hopeful
cheerfulness.
What beautiful life was that Of the
good old man! For Byrant, appearing
IN print at the age of thirteen, has been
before the public for seventy years, longer
than many = centenarian; and every year
has been filed with vigorous thought
and action. And his Death, how beauti-
full! As Horace wished to die, 80 death
came to him, in full possession Of his
mental powers, and not in wasting form.
And when the summons came, he went
- trustfal]y and unfalteringly as one who
lilies down to pleasant dreams.''

TIT New Orleans Democrat never
could understsnd Why Alexander H.

from the people Of the Eighth Congress
sional District Of Georgia to continue
his eccentric political course in Congress
and ads: "The voters of that District
elect him term after term, and grant him
the privilege of acting just ~ he sees fit
