The Argus reports the business outlook in
Bath as promising for the leading industry,
both for large ships and, especially, for coast
ing vessels, while the general trade in our
business circles is certainly better than it was
last year. Few people are suffering from
want, taxes have been reduced, every body IS
getting along and 1t certainly seems time
for the croakers to cease prophecying evil to
our city, or else to remove to their brethren in
in the marshes"
At North Shapleigh the "Indigo Blouse
Flannel Mill of Hargraves is turning out
5000 yards per month, having good sale

York, and not long since filled an order Tor
snools from New Zealand.

Daaring.

The Republican meeting at Morrill's Corner
Thursday evening proved q great success.
There was large turn out at Morgan's Hall
and the audience listened attentively from the
beginning to the close.
LIB bennett, Esq, presided and introduced
Hon. Nelson Dipgley, Jr. as the speaker Of
the evening. Mr.. Dingley is one OF the hap
piest and most logical of our public speakers.
He dealt almost entirely with the financial
question, touching slightly upon the Southern
question. He answered convincingly the points
usually presented by the Greenbackers, on the
taxing of bonds, etc. He gave some very in
teresting illustrations from his late visit to
Europe, speaking for instance, of the paper
money of Turkey, very pretty to look at, but
requiring 600 to make dollar, with prices OF
goods in proportion, and as much difficulty in
the poorer classes securing paper dollar as
formerly in getting specie dollar.

SEVENTH MAINE.
Annual Reunion at the Kirkwood House.

One of the most enjoyable reunions of the
old veterans of the Seventh Maine Regiment
was held at the Kirkwood House, Scarboro',
Thursday. There were but few members who
participated in the reunion, but the occasion
was rendered lively by the usual camp songs
and jokes, and above the shouts and laughter
was heard the piteous voice of Thurston call
ing for cracker, that he might have some
thing to lean over in the great effort he was
about to make at initiating Scion and them
steers. So far as the steers We're concerned, it
was success.
Lewis is not politician, but has, neverthe-
less, liberal ideas of finance and its distribu-
ton. Woodbury. d. was present with his
accustomed smile, and yet he did not smile.
(Be temperate in all things, Woodbury.; if
thine eye gazeth upon the fair bather, pluck it
out, for it becometh unruly) The dulcet
voice of Johnnie B. was heard upon the beach,
calming the frisky clam to repose, while the
stalwart Mullin was capering over the fields
with comrade under each arm, to the evident
delight Of all.
Jimmie Foster was there, too Jimmie is
good boy, but he manifested too strong affec-
ton for the beach.
Immediately after dinner business meeting
was held and the following officers elected:

Portland Chorus Choir.

Encouraged by the success of their first, and,
at the earnest solicitation of many friends, the
choir announce in another column, their Sec
ond grand moonlight excursion. 1t was the
unvarying testimony of all who enjoyed their
recent excursion, that a more respectable and
orderly company could not be found. The
same care in the issue of tickets will be OBJ
served this time. The only unpleasant feature
was the fact that SO large number who wished
to enjoy the sail were obliged to be left on the
wharf. In order to avoid any crowd ON the
boat. the number of tickets will be limited to
five hundred thus securing the convenience
and comfort of all. Those who wish to make
sure of this sail will do well to observe where
tickets can be found and secure them in sea-

Thief Arrested.

Last Monday night a man who gave the
name of William j. Splain, stopped at the
Preble House. He made the acquaintance OF
a guest of the house and induced that gentle
man to let him share his room with him on the
ground that all the rooms in the house were
taken.
After they had retired for the night, and the
gentleman was asleep, Splain arose, stole the
mans gold watch, chain, $3.50 in money, and
cleared out. He was traced to Haverhill,
Mass, where Marshal Bridges proceeded yes
terday. Splain refused to return without a
requisition from the Governor of Maine. He
was put before the court however, and Judge
Carter held him for a week i'll $500 bonds, SO
that he will probably have to come to Portland
eventually.
