White Mountain Views.

Chisholm Brothers of this city have Just
issued an admirable and unique series of White
Mountain views, consisting of three folio vol
umes, in size eleven by fourteen inches, each
containing ten full page heliotypes with de-
scrlptive letter-press by Mr.. M. F. Sweetser,
the well-known author of Biographies.
The heliotypes, from photographs of the
points of greatest interest in the Mountains,
are finely executed and of undeniable ex-
cellence. The descriptive text is, as may be
judged from its author, full, accurate and en-
tertaining. The books are printed on heavy
calendared paper, are finely bound, and will
make handsome ornaments for the centre
table as well as most agreeable reminders of a
mountain trip to all who have been so fortu-
nate as to have undertaken it.
One volume is devoted to the scenery about
the Glen, one to the Crawford Notch, and one
to the Profile. Each is offered at the low
price of two dollars, and is well worth that
small amount. Chisholm Brothers also have
an edition Of smaller size, subjects of hello
types the same printed on German glazed
paper, and sold at $1.50 copy. The typo
graphical work on both editions has been done
by Rand & Avery of Boston,

Mayor Walker has made arrangements for
the ringing of the bells, for the space of
fifteen minutes, at sunrise and sunset on the
occasion of the celebration of our National In
dependence, and also for the firing of a salute
at the same time. The Portland Band will
give concert from to 10 p. m. in Congress
Square, and it is requested that, as the Square
will probably be crowded with people, that
citizens should refrain from driving horses and
carriages into the Square during these hours.
Chambers Band will play in front of City
Hall from to Up. M, and after p. m. as
long as they have time at their disposal. 1t is
but proper, while the city cannot afford an
elaborate display, that some notice should be
taken of the occasion.

THE INFANTRY ExcURsIoN.-At the In
fantry excursion to Lake Sebago tomorrow,

the cars at Woodford's Corner, and take horse
cars to the city, where they will be escorted
from Preble street to the railroad station.
Miller's Cornet Band of Lewiston, will ac-
company the excursion. A train will leave
the foot of Exchange street at $50 a. m. to
accommodate those who live down town.
Tickets will be good on all trains during the
day and will therefore accommodate all parties
on the line of the road.

Portland High School.

Yesterday was most suspicious day for the
closing exercises of the High School, and our
citizens awaited themselves Of the privilege by
filling City Hall to repletion, even the aisles
contained many standing, who would other
wise have been unable to listen to these annual
interesting exercises.
Promptly at go p. IN. the graduates, sixty
in number, filed upon the stage, followed by
MIR. A. E. Chase, principal, and teachers of the
/. schools, His Honor Mayor Walker, Messrs
Smaller, Burgess, Libby, Gray, Stanley and
Chadwick of the school committee, and Prof
Masse. and the exercises at once proceeded in
the order as given in our edition of yesterday
The several orations and essays were exceed
ingly well written and well rendered. One
pleasing feature of the occasion was the
French recitation "Adeux de Marie Stuart
by Miss Addie NJ. SWEET, delivered with much
grace and with good accent.
The hall was decorated beautifully with
flowers and bunting. Flags hung from the
ceiling and were Topped up in the center with a
cluster white of flowers, forming back ground
to the stage Over the great clock on the wall
in the rear of the stage was the motto "V O.
p" thanked by the NOTICE 80. @. So on the
right and ga. P. H." on the left. Below the
clock, arranged in circular space, was the
scroll, "P. III. S. TO-" A small bouquet
adorned the reading desk, and two large ones
the stage in front of it. AT the right of the
desk was large cylindrical pile of bloom and
green, and the edge of the stage was bordered
with flowers. The front of the stage was
draped in bunting, and festoons of red, white,
black and pale blue bunting hung around the
front of the gallery and were suspended from
the chandeliers.
AT the conclusion of the exercises Mayor
Walker in a few well chosen words of con-
graduation, presented diplomas to the follow
ing young ladies and gentlemen:

The Late Masonic Celebration

j. III, Lamson, photographer, has arranged
fitting souvenir of the late Masonic celebra-
ton in the shape of dozen stereoscopic views
OF the procession and the points visited The
first represents City Hall and Ancient Land
mark Lodge; then follow the officers of the
Grand Lodge, and views of the procession
from old City Hall, from points at the head
and foot of Free street, and on Middle street:
Then there is view of the John Brooks and
Lewiston landings. Next follows view of
the bay, with a steamer in the distance which
IS perhaps the best of all. A glimpse of the
ruins of the clam-bake, and rather desolate
view of the tables after the feast, complete the
series, which of course every Mason, in the
procession and every outsider who saw it, will
be eager to secure.

Mr.. Charles D. Dow, young man aged
about q years, carpenter, employed in the
Rochester repair shop, was at work, at the
foot of Preble street, under car, yesterday
noon, repairing the brake. The car stood on
side track and, it was supposed, had been
left in such position that trains passing on
the MAN track could not hit it, A passing
train, however, struck the car and upset it,
jamming Dow between the rails and trucks
He was so severely hurt internally that he
died two hours afterwards. He resided on Al

respected and leaves widow-to whom he
had been married but a year-and one child.

Not a ticket was sold at the station here for

are no Democrats in town, or, that they do not

The nomination of Mr.. Davis is perfectly
satisfactory to the Republicans of Fairfield
and they will give him a good vote in Septem-

The Fairfield Chronicle is no more. Ever
since the present editor and proprietor, Mr..
Augustine Simmons, purchased Mr. Colby's
interest in the paper decided change in its
make up has been taking place, and this week
it appears under new name, throwing off the
patent outside, and starts anew as home
paper under the name of The Fairfield Jour

change, but the amount of reading matter in
creased. The paper, as the Chronicle" has

readers will find still greater cause for satisfac

Preparations for the glorious Fourth will
probably be as follows: National salute by the
"boys" with bells, cannon, small arms, circu-
lar saws, &C., &C., commencing at midnight,
or before and continuing as long as strength
lasts; parade Of colored brigade and fantasies
at s; swimming match at 10; tub race at II /;
Foot race and walking match closes the morn

evening there will be moonlight dance on
Bunkers Island fireworks on the park free
