An Incident Of Lincoln.

Soon after the famous retreat at the first
battle Of Bull Run. President Lincoln, in
company with the Hon. Lot NJ. Morrill,, Sen
ator from Maine. made a visit to the Maine
Regiments. The Sd Maine. commanded by
Col. o. o. Howard, claimed his special at
tention. as most of the boys had lost their
blankets and clothing. The Government
being short Of many things at that time
were Obliged to put forth great strain to
furnish supplies needed, hence a spurious
article of army blanket, was dealt out to the
soldiers. In company &C. was great, tall
fellow. who was always growing. He drew
one of these shoddy blankets. The day the
President came on to the grounds, Mr.. six
foot-growler stalked up to Mr.. Lincoln with
his blanket, which came from his chin to his
knees. and in very bold way said. Mr..
President what do YOU think of this thing
with one of his peculiar smiles, said, well
that blanket does seem rather short for you,
but tell YOU what 1t is, sonny, think you
will gror to it after awhile" The GROWER
was glad to beat hasty retreat, while the
boys in blue sent up three hearty cheers and
tiger for the President.
The writer of the above, now living in
this county, was a member of the Sd Maine
Regiment, and was present on the oc-
casion above referred to.-ED.I

Shall We Encourage Manufacturing

Our people must awake ultimately To the
supreme necessity of manufactures If they
hope to maintain their present population
and standard of value for real estate. II Is
known BY every schoolboy that if our mills
were swept from our River and never re-
placed by other manufactures, real estate
in Ellsworth would be well-nigh salueIess.
There are some ten or twelve mills manu-
featuring lumber in Ellsworth, from which
come chiefly all our resources. Now what
relation do these mills sustain to labor For
five months. and frequently on account Of
drought, seven months. of the year they are
| idle, throwing the men whom they employ
out of work, to remain in idleness, or catch
a days work here and there opportunIt,
| presents. l. it any wonder that our people
| are poor, that the merchants goods remain
| in his store or what is worse, 20 out on trust
with little prospect Of payment
! For six months in the year. at least, We
are like the Kilkenny cats, eating one an
other up Is there any remed, Yes. let
vs. commence the establishment of ten or
| dozen industries which shall give employ
ment the year round. and make and send out
things for which our neighbour. are willing
to send Us their money. then shall cease
10 hear the cry Of hard times. When one
such industry shall have hcen established. it
will do more towards baild,ng up than all
the stores IN the oIiy. Merchants are
/ convenience. Producer. are a necessity.
| We fail to see why dealer IN groceries
should not understand the situation a. we'll
/ the dealer in whi>key. Temperance reform
er,, "a, the latter spare no labor or expense
/ 10 increase the consumers. We think every
merchant IN this city can afford TO aid mate
/ rally, in some degree. every enterprise
which gives employment TO labor.
While thinking of the many things which
/ might be made advan,ageously IN our city,
/ We notice that there are ,hirt, seven fac
tories for canning fish and berries in the
| counties Of Hancock and Washington. The
/ factory al Milbrdge ha, been canning one
/ thousand cases per ~eck. let Us make
few calculations. suppose tina, each factory
puts up five hundred cases per week, one
I half the number reported Of the Milbridge,
+ then Ne should have the thirty seven facto-
rles putting up IN siN months four hundred
aud eight, one thousand cases. We find,
also, to supply these factories only two man
uiacturers Of buXe. ia the two Countie,-
one at Cherryteld and one a, CALAIS.
some people seem TO think individuals
ought Ia carr, on these enterprises. All We
can sav l. that there j. nc individual IN this
CITY having the requisite capital who has the
courage or disposition to go ahead, and IN
les, something j, done IN a corporate capac-
ity where the necessary capital Is distributed
among good many, nothing will be accom-
pished. ENTERPRISE.
