THE Barron Case Again.

DEXTER, ME-, May e.-Among the
new discoveries of the savings bank OF
ficers in regard to Mr.. Barron's business
transactions are the following: They
found on the bank books, under date OF
October 20, 1877, two charges OF money
paid-namely, $500 to Mrs. Crafts OF
Dover, Me-, on her deposit account, ana
1900 to David R. Straw of Guilford,
Me-, as a loan on real estate. They
found. under date of November II,
1877, credits of money received from
the same parties for the same amounts
as charged above. The regular No
vember examination by the bank ex-
aminer interviewed between these dates.
Discovering that no such entries were
made on the deposit book held by Mrs;
Crafts, the bank officials were moved
to investigate. They now have the
affidavit of Mrs. Crafts that she drew
no money and paid no debts on the
dates named, and the affidavit OF Mr..
Straw that he never borrowed from or
paid money to the Dexter Savings Bank
on the dates named, or any other. 1t
is asserted that these fictitious charges
and credits were made by Mr.. Barron
to tide the bank over the November
examination, the same in connection
with which the alleged false oath was
made.

Another Veto from President Hayes.


On Monday President Hayes returned
to the House without his approval the
Democratic "army interference BILL"
sO-called, but which some one has more
appropriately named ga bill to palsy
the arm of the Executive" 1t was ac-
cOmpanied by message in which the
President gives the following reasons
for the veto:
|. There is no demand or need for
the measure, as it is not the purpose of
the present Administration to permit
any military interference at the polls
whatever.
?. The bill in question proposes to
abrogate on certain days of the year
and at certain places ancient and funda
mental laws which clothe the Federal
Executive with power to call upon the
militia of states or the army of the
United States, to enforce the laws when
the proper officers are resisted by force.
3. The bill discriminates in favor of
the state and against the national au-
thOrity, and implies that while Federal
troops may be employed under the di-
rectiOn of state authorities to keep
peace at the polls, they cannot be used
by the President to maintain peace at
Federal elections.
4. The bill is designed to shut cut
the National Government from the ex-
ercise of the right and from the dis
charge of an imperative duty.
WHAT THE PRESS SAYS.
This makes the fifth veto Hayes has
signed and the first blunder he has
made in signing One.-Springfeld Re
publican.
The Presidents clear and ringing veto
messages are like the voice of authority
calling back the disputants to the ques-
ton before them.-NeW York Tribune.
The Presidents veto of the army in
reference bill, leaves the Democrats
again without a policy-a want which
it is by no means certain that the party
caucus will be able to supply.-NelU
York Times.
Mr.. Hayes writes of elections as
events that require the treatment that
armed rebelliOns and invasiOns require.
He writes of the people as an enemy.
He writes of elections as hostile pro-
ceedings. This is the whole burden
and bearing of his veto.-Albany ar
gus.
The confederate Congress puts in
pretty hot ball, but you see Uncle
Hayes is up to all the twists and curves
and things, and the way he picks them
up and sheds the daisy-cutters from off
that big constitution bat of his, is
comfortable to behold. CLeUeldud CO..
Herald.
The President stands where he ought
to stand, as the leader and guide of the
party that placed him in the executive
office, unfolding their principles and
opposing himself, with his great power,
to the schemes of those who would
transform the country again into con-
federacy.-BOStOR Advertiser.
President Hayes has done nothing
which has shown clearer head or
Drawer heart, or more far-sighted pat
riOtism, than the writing of this veto.
He has consolidated the friends of the
Union he has carried dismay into the
ranks of the factions which have been
sacrificing every interest of the people
for the chance of personal and partisan
cOnquest.-Uticd IN. " Herdld.

FOREST FIREs.-A fearful fire is rag
ing in the vicinity of Scranton, Pa, and
along the Delaware, Lackawana and
Western Railroad. The village of
Tobyhanna was threatened, but the
villagers at last accounts had success
fully fought the fire back from the viii
lage limits. Other forest fires, but of
less magnitude, are burning in several
places in New Hampshire, and in Yer
mont, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
A serious fire has been raging in the
woods near West Lebanon village for
two days, at one time imminently ell
dangering Tilden female seminary. A
large gang of men were fighting the
flames Tuesday, and are now believed
to be under control.

The English Queen.

The following is an extract from
diary kept by Admiral Pathnan, Am
bassador of the French Republic to the
Court of ST. James:
"Youth can dissimulate; advanced
age can not. The history of the elderly
man or woman's life is always written
on the face, and there is no means that
1 know of to attenuate the record.
Queen Victoria was pretty, then comely,
and would now be decidedly plain were
it not for the impress her physiognomy
bears of virtuous and holy. (sainte)
existence. She has not the English love
of action. A sense of duty alone keeps
her in the world of reality. To be truly
happy she must suffer herself to drift
into dreamland. A lady in her conf
dence told me that beautiful scenery has
the effect on Her Majesty's imagination
which the hand of musician has on the
key board of piano. The expression of
the Queens eye is vague end dreamy,
unless she is addressing somebody who
like your very humble servant-has
been Just presented to her. 1t then is
sweet, animated, and, above every thing
else, honest. can not think how q
knavishly minded person could support
her frank, open gaze. They tell me she
has the gift of divining spirits. AS a
matter of fact she has nearly always
shown discernment in forming friend
ships and in placing her confidence.
After presented my letters she asked
about you and sMlle. Rose,' and said
she felt greatly obliged to the President
of the Republic for sending to
England as his Ambassador 3 naval
officer of, by his mothers side, English
blood. The French navy was very pop
ular in England, and her Majesty had
always heard that French naval officers
were men of the best education and
most elevated feelings. The Princess
Beatrice is small and fair. She gives
the idea of being in poor health and
without stamina. Her sister, the Prin-
cess Christian, would be one of the
handsomest women in England were she
little taller and much less stout. She
came up with her babies from Frogmore
when l was at the Castle. Her life is
placid and beautiful as the scenes in the
midst of which she lives. 1t has the
dignity, softness, richness and calm of
the Windsor landscape. The Princess
is the most skilled needle-woman in
England. She is also musician of su-
housewife and farmer. Her poultry
yard and dairy are models OF excellent
management. Not the least of her tai
ents Is one for cooking. Every day,
when the Queen is at Windsor, she pre-
pares with her own hands dish for her
lunch which is sent up to the Castle in
Norwegian apparatus for keeping it
hot The children of the Princess are
well grown and robust. The Queen
seems most loving grandmother. She
neither hides nor parades the womanly
sentiments in the exercise of which she
has found her greatest happiness"

How Mill Girls Amuse Themselves.

about the amusements or diversions of
the mill people. My frs step was to
ask great many of the young women
what they did in the evening after work.

dian girls, who are Catholics, nearly all
replied, Z" I'VE stay at home. We have
to sew and mend our clothes, and wash
them. We do not know any body, and
SO we have no place to go in the even
ing" At times the answer was, My
mother" or I" my sister will not let me
go out" Most of the other young wom-
en- said, "Oh, we go out with our fellers,
and with some of the other girls" " And
where do you gop'' "Oh, along the
streets, down town; to the post-o flee
or the candy store, if the boys will
shout" "If they will shout; what is
thatP" "Oh, don't you knowP Why,
that means If they will treat; if they will
buy some candy for us.'' I" And do you
drink something, tooP' To this the
younger women always answered, "No,
we don't drink any thing unless its
soda water, sometimes, in warm wealth.

older companion, and said, "She
drinks; she drinks beer" Then the
woman thus spoken of would laugh, ,and
toss her head, and say, Amt you goin'
to shout?' Aud when met the same
group in the street in the evening, the
question would be repeated, with
smile of recognition.
do not think these girls and young
er women have usually any habitual
amusement except this walking out with
their friends which have just mention

many of them go to ball. To go
more frequently would be regarded by
their own class as an extravaganza, as
an indication of unsteadiness and
tendency to dissipation. found many
young people in the mills who "beleng-

Church, and some who were Baptists.
Probably there were among the oper-
