Mr.. Frye's Letter.


Mr. EDITOR The letter of Mr.. Frye in
to-day's PRESS is the strongest argument
against removing him from the House where
his experience makes him so necessary to the
public business likely to come before that body
for the next year. If he is made Senator, who
is to succeed him to take care of the "Nunding
Bill" the "Revised Tariff Bill" the "Sugar
Bill" and other measures of equal Importance
which will come before the House? 1t is not
likely that they will be settled during the
present short term of Congress. Is it likely
that any gentleman who would be selected as
MIR. Frye's successor, however able, would
nave the requisite experience and standing to
I'LL his place in the House upon these meas
ures? L assume that Mr.. Frye does not over
state the necessity of his presence in the House
and that his letter is written with view of
showing this fact alone. But it proves beyond
doubt that the people cannot afford to have
Mr. Frye leave the post to which he has been
elected and where he will be conspicuopsy
before the country, in order to retire him to
the Senate, where he can do less good Mr.
Frye has not overstated the necessity for the
presence of able men in the House, and al
though it would seem that our own represen-
tatlve and others might look after matters for
day or two whilst Mr.. Frye is absent attend
| ing to his canvass, which all would concede to
| be proper and decorous for him to do, yet it is
| true that as the House is made up we need Mr..
Frye where hesis All concede the ability and
eminent public services of Mr. Hale and
| thoughtful men will ask themselves the ques-
tion again whether the pu bic good does not
| require the services of both Mr. Frye and Mr.
dale IN Congress. COMMERCIAL STREET.

The Senatorship.

The Portland correspondent of the Boston
Traveller telegraphed to that journal yester-
day as follows.
near, the contest wakes hotter. The friends
OF each of the principal aspirants are working
and straining every nerve to weaken the 9TH
er's force and at the same time preserve their
own intact.
The fight has centered upon Cumberland
and York counties, principally upon the for
mer. Mr.. Hale's friends organized here first,
and as consequence have secured for him a
large majority of the delegation-in fact all
but three from this county are counted as sure
for him. But Mr. Frye and his able captains
Wakefield of Bath and Wing of Auburn-had
meeting here yesterday with the friends of
Mr.. Frye. Those pledged to him and some
others also were present. They claim to have
plegded some who were counted for Mr.. Hale,
but how true it is can be learned only at the
caucus. They have made thorough organi-
zation OF the county and are bringing every
possible means to bear to make a break in Mr.
Hales following. In each town a few trusted
men are busy in getting up popular demon
stration in favor of Mr.. Frye.
Every member of the Cumberland delega-
ton, with but one or two exceptions, have re-
ceived letter informing him that all the in
fuential men are for Mr.. Frye. and if they ex-
pect to have any influence they must join.
But, as far as heard from, the bait las been
taken in but one instance, with indications
that he will not be safely landed
Public opinion estimates the strength of the
two candidates as about equal, but therein
public opinion is at fault if the shrewdest
guessers prophecy as truly as they usually do.
For they estimate that MIR. Hale will receive
the nomination with votes to spare, and they
base their estimate partly on the fact that
more than enough to nominate him have so
unqualifedly expressed themselves in favor of
Mr.. Hale's election that it will be impossible
for Mr.. Frye's friends to change them. AT
the present stage of the contest it is virtually
safe to say that Mr.. Hale will be elected

That Swindler,

Yesterdays PRESS spoke of swindler who
had been deceiving people at West Randolph.
VT. and said he would possibly come this way
and that our business men had better look out
for him. We have since learned that he has
been here and made his mark
Three weeks ago young man came to Port
land and put up at one of our hotels. He was
very nice appearing fellow and represented
himself as Mr.. Holden, travelling for the we'll
known firm of j. w. Masury & Son, New
York, dealers in paints and varnishes. He
had letters and cards of the firm in his possess
sion and appeared to be all right. At that
time linseed oil was quoted at 81 cents per gal
Ion, and turpentine 49 to so cents. Mr.. Hold
en- offered to take orders for linseed oil at so
cents, and turpentine at 35 cents, with no
charge for packages, and freight paid to Port
land. Several parties who used these articles
in their business at once bit, and gave orders
1t then happened, casually, that Mr.. Holden
was cut of money and would like to have a
draft on the firm cashed. One customer cashed
a draft, it is reported for $125. Another took
the sharper to banking-house and endorsed
check for $75 for him. 1t is needless to say
the drafts were returned by the parties who
did not know Mr.. Holden.

PERILS OF THE SEA.
PROBABLE LOSS OF THE TARGET.
Rescue of Vessels Crew by the Lake
Winnipeg.

Last Sunday afternoon when the wind was
blowing very heavy off Richmond's Island a
small schooner called the Target, used to
bring hay and cabbages from the Island to
Portland, was pulling at her moorings and her
captain determined to go aboard despite the
advice of those OF shore. The captains name
we could not learn, but he has club-foot
and is known as quiet, hard-working man
with small family resident at Cape Elizabeth.
He had man with him as crew. After get
ting aboard the violence of the wind caused
the vessel t. break from her moorings and she
was driven seaward like shot. 1t is feared
she could not have weathered the storm, and
bales of hay from her cargo have washed
ashore at the island The vessel is owned bv
Mr.. Hugh Chisholm of this city, and insured.
Mr.. Chisholm is out of town.
The steamers Forest City and John Brooks,
which arrived from Boston Tuesday afternoon
and night report seeing the masts of vessel
that looked like a brigantine, sticking up
above the water, about a mile and half north
of York lodges. 1t is thought the brigantine
struck the ledge, capsized and filled. 1t is
said the vessel was painted red and there is
an Eastport schooner that is the only one
known in this vicinity painted that color.
The steamer Eleanora Of the New York line
arrived here yesterday morning. She reports
that when near Nauset light she saw a
schooner of about fifty tons burden button up
on the beach. A crowd of people surrounded
her. Her spars and rigging we're gone.
The steamer Lake Winnipeg, Capt. Bern
son, arrived at this port from Liverpool, the
18th inst. yesterday morning. She met with
strong head winds but had good passage.
She brought one female passenger. She re-
ports that on the 18th, in North Channel,
when sixteen miles northwest of Rathlin
Island, she took a strong gale, with high seas,
and saw brigantine to the eastward, with
signals of distress flying. The steamer furled
her trySails and ran down to the vessel, when
the captain said he wished to be taken off with
his crow, bis vessel was IN sinking cond-
tion. The steamer lowered and manned No
boat, and at 4.30 p. M took off master and
crew. The vessel proved to be the "Blink
Bonnie" Capt. Edward Lightfoot of Liver
pool, from Mayport for Londonderry, and coal
laden. Her crew consisted of Henry Light
foot, j. McCurre and j. Wharton. The
master and crew were brought hither.
Capt. Lightfoot reported to Fl. B. NJ. Vice
Consul, Mr.. George H. Starr, and told him
that the "Blink Bonnie spraug aleak in the
storm and filled so fast he was compelled to
abandon her. She was an old vessel built 90
years ago
