To the Departed.


LCo9tinueG from last wcekl
TuscuMBrA, No, JUNE %, 1870
Yes wei meet our loved ono
On that bright and sunny shore,
Whore there Is no more parting
And death can come no more
There the storms OF life arc over,
There the spirits free from care,
There wei dwell in peace forever,
Yes we will meet u Henry there.
Oh, our home Is sad without him,
Sweet one that God bad given,
The flower that budded here below
Is blooming pow in heaven,
Yes, u home is sad without him,
Yet his master called his own,
To sing his praise in glory
Around the bright white throne.
Oh, how sweet will be that meeting
And that angel smile of love,
When we meet cur darling Henry
At the golden gates above,
When we reach that better country
Where no cloud o'erspread tho skies,
Where tho Towers are ever blooming
And the summer never dies.
Yea this earthly life is Geeting
For our homo Is not below,
Whence man cOmeth no rcturnoth
And soon we will be called TO go,
Then my darling we will meet you
When liie's winter day is over,
Where GoG's " uniailing sunshine
Gljdee the dim etherlal shore.
There vel never more be severed,
There wei sleep on jesus breast.
There tho wicked cease from troubling
And the weary arc AT rest;
Yes when lilo's journeys ended,
When the river we have crossed,
Up there with white robed AuGcls
We will meet our loved and lost.
Yes it will be a happy meeting
Over on thu other shore,
Thare n meet the dear departed
Who has only gone before,
There with all the ransomod over
In God's brighl home well dwell,
Wei bear 40 more that parting word,
That sad, that long farewell.

Uanisrsst Mile Matters,

There was a great grethback Tally here
Tuesday evening. and B. +. Lancaster ad-
dressed the meeting. There were forty Eight
people present in all, and it took from "A to
81 o'clock to draw them in. There were six
republicans present. about as many green
hackers, and the rest were democrats
and boys. There were only twenty
eight voters in the hall, and eight Of
them left before his hours speech closed.
| should not say speech. for it was only mess
of lies and ISLANDERS upon Corporal Davis and
James q. Blaine, but mostly on the Kenne-
bee Journal. He harped considerably on the
increase of interest ON the National debt of
many millions, since 1861, and claimed it
was from Shermans sworn statement, etc,
etc, and the youngest boy in the hall knew
that he was telling a falsehood. 1t is the
general opinion here that he had better be
attending to his official duties which he is
paid for by the State. He closed by inviting
all to come forward and subscribe for the
National Tribune, which he informed them
they could have for 10 cts. until they saw in
its columns that Joseph l.. Smith was Cover
nor of Maine. NJ.

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON, August 7. The financial articles
this morning state that the withdrawal of gold
from the banks of England, yesterday, for
the United States, is probably the precursor
of large shipments, in payment for quantities
of American produce, and that steady de-
cline in exchange will follow.
The GOLFERS of Lanarkshire, scotland, have
agreed to work only four days in the week,
and this, in connection with the greatly re-
duced supply of coal, has raised its price for
the first time in five years. The colliers will
strike for more pay.
In Lords, tonight, on second reading, the
Irish volunteer bill was rejected.

sion was great success. The fremen and
volunteers joined in it and had their engines

THE BuIu WAR.
Several znlu Chief Surrender 10 the
British.
Efforts to Capture King Cetywayo.

CAFE Town, July 20. Several Zulu
chiefs have submitted to Sir Garnet Woolsley.
1t is reported he assured them they henceforth
would be governed and protected by British
government.
Gen. Crealock and Coils. Wood and Butler
will return to England. Another detachment
of troops has embarked for home. A strong
force is to advance on Ulu ndi Immediately,
Gen. Wolsley having promised the chiefs he
would be there by Aug. 10. A detachment
Of friendly natives, and probably Gen. New
digates column, will advance simultaneously
on the kings new kraal.
Cetywayo has force of only a thousand.
1t is thought he might be captured without
difficulty.
News received from Sir Garnet Wolselsy,
on Umlarosie river, July 81, states that the
prospects for peace are good. Gen. Wolse-
ley's interview with coast chiefs was satisfac-
tory, but the latter consider peace impossible
while Cetywayo is at large. Natives gener-
ally cannot understand the retirement of the
British forces from Ulundi. Wolseley there
fore thinks il necessary to re-occupy that
place, and has summoned all the chiefs to
meet him there Aug. 10, to settle questions
relative to the future of the country. Opera
tons against Cetewayo, by irregulars and
friendly natives, have commenced. Arrange
ments are making to break up the hrst divi-
sion and cavalry brigade and send the men
home. Cham has undertaken 20 capture his
brother Cetywayo.

WASHINGTON.
The Canal scheme,

WAsHINGToN, August I. As the result Of
a thorough inquiry at the State department
and interview with the President, it may be
authortively stated that no action will be
taken and no correspondence held by this
government, either with regard to De Lesseps
Canal scheme, in its relation to our foreign
policy, or with regard to further exploration
of the Isthmus by another government expe-
dition, with view To the organization of an
American Canal Company. As far as De
Lesseps' scheme is concerned, both the Pres
ident and Sec'y of State are firmly convinced
that no exigency is likely to arise which can
cause disquietude or make it necessary for
government to take steps for the protection of
American interests. They believe that De
Lcsseps and the Paris Congress have selected
an impractcabe route, and tina: the scheme
will fail through lack of financial support,
and for want of American cooperation.
Postal Matters.
The Postmaster General modifies postal
regulations relative to letter carriers, by ex-
tending the limit of age to include applicants
not A., instead of 80, as heretofore.

North VassalborO' Locals.

Last Tuesday evening the Hon. b. Reed
of Portland addressed the people of this place
in Citizens Hall, and gave as able and clear an
exposition of the questions now being discus
sed as we ever heard. It was full of sharp
points, and held the close attention of the
large gathering for one and a half hours
The Republicans were highly pleased. One
man who voted the Greenback ticket last fall
occupied front seat, taking in every word
said by the speaker. and is now back into the
Republican fold again. We also heard hard
money Democrat say that if he lived he would
vote the Republican ticket this fall that he
would vote no longer with trade and dicker
party; hope he will live and carry out his
good resolution. Monday evening Mr. Me-
Laughlin of Illinois. in the interest of the
Greenback party, gave us most doleful ac-
count of hard times. &C., which seems to be
the entire stock in trade of all the Greenback
orators that come this way. party whose
success almost wholly depends on hard times
or some calamity Detailing the people, it
seems to us cannot prosper. The expose in
Wednesdays Boston journal. of Mr.. Smith
trying to sell out his party last fall, unless
cleared up will no doubt cost him several
votes in Vassalboro'.
Two ladies stopping at the house of Mr.
Lew eooe' ,''et WIN quite an acciueht last

which came very near resulting seriously.
The horse cleared himself from the carriage,
which no doubt was the means Of saving their
lives. A defective highway was the cause of
the accident.-Mr. Joseph White, agent of
the Nassaiboro wooden mills. is spending a
