FEIDAY.-Bridget WEIGH and her husband, Pat
rick WEIGH, against The City of Portland. Action
to recover damages laid at $4,000 for personal
injuries sustained by the female plaintiff by
of alleged defect in Cotton street in this city.
On the 25th day of December, 1878, between five
and six O'Clock in the afternoon, Mrs. WEIGH, who
resides ON Cotton street. started out to find her
child, then out at play. She started down the side
: walk, heard the child cry, stopped the edge of
the curbstone and saw the child running towards
her from lumber yard across the street where it
had been to play. AS the child neared her she
reached for its hand, and in so doing took step
from the sidewalk, when her foot went into hole
in the paved gutter The hole was according to the
testimony of all the witnesses, large over as
peck measure and of unknown depth. Her leg
went down the whole length, brusing it, also injur
ing her stomach and abdomen, which brought on
miscarriage. The physicians on both sides say that
she is now in a dropsical condition, (which the
injuries received at the time of the fall The de-
PENDANTS claim that the plaintiff not ''trav-
eller' within the meaning of the statute. They
further claim that the city had notice of the de-
feet. One John McCurran, friend of Patrick
WEIGH testified that WEIGH called his attention to
the hole and that subsequently. three four days
before the accident, he, McCurran, saw Mayor But
Ter standing upon the steps of City Hall and in
Termed him of this hole on Cotton street: that
Mayor Butler took his name and residence upon
should be attended to. The defendants claim that
this testimony is false. Mr.. Bassett, then Street
Commissioner. testified that he did not hear of it
until about the sixth of January, sometime after
the accident.

Buying a Province.


Newfoundland has virtually passed into the
possession of few New York millionaires, al
though the country still remains, of course
under the flag of Great Britain By the pas
sage of the Newfoundland railway bill by the
legislature Saturday contract is ratified be-
tween New York syndicate and the New
foundland Government, whereby the wealth.
est portion of Newfoundland becomes the
absolute property of New York capitalists
Two million acres of land have been coded to
them indefeasibly, and these two million acres
cover nearly the whole of the great serpentine
belt which contains copper in almost unlimit.
ed quantities The New York syndicate, be-
sides being guaranteed an annual subsidy of
Sloo 600, have succeeded in laying their hands
lor all time on the whole of the ascertained
mineral regions of the country. 1t is thought
that this movement forebodes ultimate annexa-
ton to the United States. The opponents of
such consummation have vigorously opposed
the railroad bill, referring contemptuously to
the scheme for permitting the most valuable
portlsn OF the country to pass into the hands
OF aliens. Newfoundland is one of the oldest
possessions Of the British crown on this CONT
nent, and it would, indeed be quite surprising
70 see It's hitherto loyal people voting for an

MAINE AND CALIFORNIA.
GREAT GATHERING OF MAINE PEO-
PILE IN OAKLAND, CAL. LAST WEEK
Remarks by Rev. DR.. Suebbins.

To the old New Highlander there was some
thing of a home look in the gathering at Bad
gers Park in Oakland last week, at the fourth
annual reunion of the Maine people who have
found homes in California, under the auspices
of the Alameda County Association. Arrived
at the ground Rev. Horatio Stebbins treated
the assembly to an off-hand Grafton. giving a
short and interesting resume of the romantic
early history of Maine, remarking upon the
noble part performed by her arms in the war
of the rebellion, and pointing to the eminent
literary and political places occupied through
out the land by Maine men. He closed with a
very sensible and good humored warning
against the danger of becoming too rigid pro-
vincialists, saying:-"There are just as good
men and women in Maine as in any other
State in the Union, and just as good men and
women in the State of South Carolina as any
other portion of the Union; and the beauty OF
California is, that we are to-day the most
American State in the Union"
George A. Nourse, of San Francisco, filled
the office of President of the day ably and
agreeably. After the exercises were conclud-
ed the people separated into little family
groups, spreading elaborate lunch tables, nota-
BILE for the abundance of delicious home pre-
pared viands, the absence of spirituous liquors
and the presence of hot, smoking baked beans
and brown bread, provided by the managers
and distributed literally ON every hand Many
affecting reunions of old and long separated
friends took place in the course of the day.
Among familiar faces present claiming ma
tivity in the Pine Tree State were observed
Mayor Blethen of Oakland; N. w. Spaulding,
the newly appointed United States Treasurer
at San Francisco; General Bridge, George e.
Whitney, Judge Wilson of the Superior Court;
and Judge Chamberlain, Receiver of the
United States Land office, and Mr.. John Doe.
Mrs. Yanagiya, wife of the Japanese consul at
San Francisco, was present with her little
children. About 1000 people in all were pres
ent on the grounds.
AT 5 O'Clock the election of officers took
place with the following result:
President-C. III. Chamberlain.
Vice PresidentS-A. Head and j. e. Far

BURGLARY IN BIDDEFORD.
Arrest of the Thief Yesterday.

The dry goods store of G. E. & F. P. Brack-
EFT in Biddeford was entered by burglars Tues
day night. The store was entered through the
cellar Their large stock of summer and fancy
silks were gone, their jewelry case which had
lately been filed with a new stock was entirely
empty, and lot OF cashmeres, shawls and rub
Der waterproofs had gone to keep them COM
pany. 1t seems that the silks were carried up
stairs into their cloak rooms and the papers re-
moved to lessen the chances of their being rec
ognized, and Judging by appearances, a lot Of
suspenders were taken with which to tie up
their bundles. A quantity of standard black
silks, which were found in the morning COW
cred by the shelf curtain, were overlooked by
the thieves, and one whole piece which had
just come in the morning before was left un-
touched on the desk. If these had been taken
it would have added very largely to the loss,
as they were of fine quality and correspond
ingly high cost. AS it was, the loss is estimat-
ed at from 81, 500 to $4,000.
A Geographic despatch from Biddeford says
the thief was captured yesterday, and proves
to be a French clerk by the name of D. w.
Haley in the employment of Messrs. Bracket.
His conduct the day previous pointed suspicion
toward him, and on inquiry as to his where
abouts that night, he stated that he was visit
