Silver Cliff and the Maine Election.

Mr.. Z. Il. Patterson of this city, writing
from Silver Cliff, Colorado, under date of Nov.
Sd, says the first despatch received there the
previous night was from Maine. The streets
were filled until daylight with marching men,
and the greatest excitement prevailed. The
Democrats had their flag at half-mast the :ol-
lowing day. The Republicans set at liberty
splendid eagle, the capture OF which, on cleo
ton day, was rather curious. 1t was found
near the city by miner, with a large snake
coiled around its neck and one wing. The
snake was killed and the eagle captured. The
Republicans named it James A. Garfield and
released it in the public square with imposing
ceremonies.

The Loud Case.

At the time of the occurrence the PRESS
published an account of brutal assault made
by one NJ. NJ. Loud, formerly lawyer of this
city, and recently resident of South Abing-
ton, Mass.,-which town he represented in
the Massachusetts Legislature-upon the fath-
er OF Miss Chamberlain, resident also in
Arlington, whom he had grossly abused. The
telegraph Saturday announced his conviction,
and Judge Aldrich, in imposing sentence, said
Mr.. LIQUIDS prominence as citizen aggravated
the offence, and that the higher the position
occupied the sew rer should be the penalty, and
that brief confinement to a man of stand
ing and social position was a severer punish
ment than longer time to man who had
neither. Instead of imposing fine, there
fore, he gave Loud term of Imprisonment.

Celebration Of the Great Republican Vic
tory at Upper Gloucester.

Last Friday evening the Republicans of this
village and vicinity assembled in large num-
bers at Upper Gloucester to express their great
joy at the election of snch statesman,
scholar and gentleman as Gen. Garfield has
shown himself to be. This village is small,
but the Republicans who reside in it and in
the vicinity are wide awake and full of patri-
otto enthusiasm, and they would not let this
great Republican victory pass without some
demonstration of their JOY that the better ele-
ment OF the population of the country pre-
vailed in this election II was pleasant sight
to see the torch bearers, about one hundred in
number, come out of the Dostofhce hall and
fall into line and, led by the New Gloucester
Band, march through the principal streets.
The most beautiful and interesting feature,
however, of this brilliant display as the
twenty-five young ladies, who bore their
torches with as much spirit and animation as
any in the procession.
The houses in the village and vicinity were
brilliantly illuminated, but there were two or
three that locked dark amid the brilliant lights
of the other houses-as ii they were mourning
for the death and burial of the Democracy of
the country, ana especially OF the suuuen
death of the fusion party in Maine.
The houses of d. NJ. Merrill. Esq, Postmas-
ter Gross. d. Grundn. George Blake, Stephen
Harris, George Eveleth, Mr.. Shurteff and
Allen H Jordan were beautifully lighted up
with candles at each pane Of glass and illunl-
nations on the outside. Madame Bradbury
house, few rods out of the village. was hand
somely illuminated. She has reached the ag Q
of ninetyone years and witnessed the election
of almost every President, but she never felt
more sincere joy in the. election of any one
than in the election of Gen. Garfield. Gen.
tennial Hall was also brilliantly illuminated.
| Guns were fired during the evening and all
| was life and animation. After this grand
| demonstration out of DOORS the crowd was in
| vited to a fine oyster supper in Centennial
| Hail. gotten up by thu ladies of Upper Glou-
cester and vicinity. After the supper a meet
| ing was organized by the choice of Charles III.
| Cobb, Esq as chairman. On taking the chair
| Mr.. Cobb always a Democrat, gave his rea-
| sons for voting the Republican ticket at our
! last elections aud made rousing speech on
! the occasion. This notice ought not to be
| closed without some reference to d. W. Mer-
rill, Esq, who has taken very active part in
! getting up this celebration which has passed
| so successfully. aud at the same time we would
| not forget others who assisted in making it a
| success B.

HARRY B. BROWN.
A View of His Summer Work.

Mr.. Harry B. Brown has fairly established
himself in his new studio for the winter and
has ON hand charming collection of sketches
the result of his summer work, at least forty
in number OF course it would be impossible
to describe in detail. with the space at our
command, all these charming productions OF
his brush and must confine ourselves to run
ming commentary on some of the more striking
efforts. With one exception they are all rem
iniscences of the BEAUTIFUL spots in and about
Conway and the Glen House, and that ex.
ception is a marine. Walkers Pond, Con.
way, represents glossy sheet of water en-
powered in blrches and frs. From the quiet
pond flows placid brook whose banks are
dotted with cardinal flowers, rather rare
feature in this vicinity it is said, and whose
waters are covered with lily pads Another
sketch of the same pond with distant noun
tains, is especially clever in the treatment of
grays in the perspective.
There is a sketch of Lake Maranacook that
presents pretty bit of the lake, with clump
ofmaples on the bank, in the nigh foreground,
that is beautiful study of brilliant coloring
A thunder shower at Conway, with the
clouds driving up and darkening the inter
wales, is a faithful portraiture of one of the
most beautiful features of summers yagaries
at this Eden-like spot.
One of the most charming of Harry's efforts
is view of Artists Brook. On the right bank
great trees and smooth turf; on the left
glimpse of meadow and between the two the
winding stream with most artistic sunlight Ell
fects striking through the woods at the head OF
the stream. There are two other sketches OF
this lovely locality, with the noble trees and
pebbly beaches.
There are two beautiful studies for panel
pictures. most accurate in coloring and draw
ing, one white birch and the other a yellow
pine. Then there is a painting of the old mill
at Stroudwater, surrounded by willows, in
which the gray effect through the willows is
good. The marine is called "No-
vember Day at Mt Desert" with the sea
breaking against the cliffs after a Storm and
where the bright light is shining from under
the heavy clouds the sails of the coasters can
be seen in the horizon.
The above are but a few Of the many beauti-
lul pictures that our readers should see find a
inal resting place in homes in this city. Mr..
Brown already has received many orders for
5he season.
