THE ARSENAL RAID.

Augusta, Me-, Dec. 26-The attempt to
take from the arsenal in Bangor the arms
and ammunition there and bring the same
here was not generally known in this city
till to-day. On Christmas night q team was
in waiting at the railroad station here to
receive the contents of the state arsenal, in
order to convey them to the state house.
The excitement here over the Bangor affair
was intense. The widest rumors prevailed
till true accounts of it were received. Gov.
Garcelon reached the city this afternoon,
Only two of the councillors were here, 10 no
business was transacted. Garcelon was seen
to.night and said he knew nothing further Of
the Bangor affair than what had appeared
in the papers ; that for judicious reasons he
had ordered French verbally to a the
arms and ammunition, and he thought the
whole matter was one of great discredit to
the city.
At ! special meeting Of the city govern
in the afternoon it Wa voted to increase
the police force Of the city to 200 men, 20
the city marshal may have q body to
call upon in case any trouble should arise.

Cant Kidd,s Treasures.

1t appears by an item in the Belfast Journal
that the seekers after the buried treasures of
the late omnipresent pirate chieftain are hot
confined to one locality. 1t states that the
wooded point of land just above the camp
ground, and owned by Jonathan Elwell, has
been resorted to for years by treasure seekers.
1t is supposed to have been one of the thous-
and and one places where Capt Kidd buried
his ill-gotten gains. The digging is done at
night and some of the delivers declare that they
had reached the flat stone covering the sought
for pot of gold, when ghostly apparition
caused them to take to their heels. This ap-
pears to be the usual luck of searchers for
Kidd's treasures. Within the past week an
unusual amount of digging has been done at
the locality mentioned. Fully half an acre is
said to have been dug over, and those who
have visited the spot profess to have seen in
the cavities the impress of the treasure pots
which the diggers are believed to have carried
away with them. An East Northport cores
pondent says of the digging at Elwells Point
"a recent discovery has been made there,
where gold or other valuables have been pro-
cured in pots or pals, some measuring two
feet in depth by about nine in diameter. The
depth of the mine from the surface Of the
ground is eleven feet The writer of this has
seen evidences from time to time of mining in
the same locality for more than thirty years,
but never before witnessed such satisfactory
proof of success as is to be seen at present"
