A QrrcK DRIvE.-Monday morning. saws
the Bangor Commercial, Governor Davis
drove from his residence in East Corinth 10
Etna, intending to take the train at that place
for Augusta, to attend a meeting of the Exec.
utive Council. As it happened the new time
table went into effect on that morning and
the morning express did not stop at that sta
ton. SO the Governor found himself
in dilemma. He had called a meeting of
the Executive Council, and without his pres
no business could be DONE But Cover
nor Davis has been in critical exigencies
before, and was not at a loss to know how to
act. Knowing that Hon. ii. C.. Friend of
Etna had good horse, he called on him for
assistance. Mr.. Friend informed him that
the drive to Newport was nine miles and that
he thought they might possibly get there in
time as they had just thirty minutes to get
ready and reach there. Accordingly the
horse was attached to sleigh and in thirty
minutes Mr.. Friend landed the Governor at
the station in Newport with one minute to
spare. Considering that the road between
Etna and Newport is quite billy, this drive is
remarkable for its speed.

put their arms around him. We have our
