AGRICULTURE IN SONORA.

With the advent of the American ml- nerinto Sonora marked change Is said to be quite noticeable in the agricultu- ral districts of the state. More especially is this so m those bordering the mineral belts which enterprise is so steady de- velepine. This is consequent upon the growing demand for the different mar sstabIe products, which hitherto have been cultivated in quantities barely suf- fioient to meet the needful demands of .he producers and the insignificant de- .nsnd made by the local trade and in- ternal wants Of the country, which as s whole, was not heretofore to be counted n favorable comparison with the pres eDt market now opened for She various products of the country. Each new min ing investment creates sn additional de- mand which fl the country does not sup ply. must be filled from elsewhere at an advanced rate over what the same articles could with profit be furnished nearer home. The country in the vicinity of the larger csnps IS said for the present time to have been thoroughly drained of su its surplus produce, in some cases for circuit of fully fifty miles.

PORTLAND LETTER.

PORTLAND, July Z, 1882.
The Fourth passed very quietly In Port
land. The Art Gallery being the only at
traction in town. Peaks Island, Adams
Corner and Cumberland Mills furnished
amusement for those who did not go TO
Bangor or Lewiston, and some there were
who stayed quietly at home enjoying the
swapping or flre-crackers and the reports
of toy pistols. The usual number of acct
dents with these horrible playthlngs were
duly chronicled in the morning papers.
One little fellow returned to the Dr. crying
bitterly to have his hand redressed. The
DIR. fearing little wads of the paper might
been forced in, said he would have to open
the hand and would administer ether.
"No," promptly responded the little econ.
omist, cit will cost too much" It is
needless TO add that the etherizing did not
diminish the celebration funds of Young
America.
Over ten thousand people went TO the
Islands-the boats running from 8 :l5 A..
VI. Till l2:ij +. NJ. 1t was hard days
work for the employees. At its close Capt
knowlton invited them TO Ruby's restau-
rant, where an appetizing meal was
served.
Since the hot wave, coal fires have been
necessary to comfort. Indeed, 1t is qnes-
ton whether the JuLc bill for coal or
strawberries will be the greater. The
Island steamers are running on a summer
timetable, bit thus far they receive very
little patronage. Even the charms Of a
sail down the beautiful CaSco Bay is not
strong enough TO allure the average citizen
from his blazing CRATE. Flies and mosqul-
toes and rare insects and crimpS stay in
beautifully.

The blood is the foundation Of
life, it eirculates through every part
Of the body, and unless it is pure
and rich, good health is impossible.
II disease has entered the system
the only sure and quick way to drive
it out is to purify and enrich the
blood.
These simple facts are well
known, and the highest medical
authorities agree that nothing but
iron will restore the blood to its
natural condition; and also that
all the iron preparations hitherto
made blaeken the teeth, cause head
ache, and are otherwise injurious.
Browns IRON BITTERs will thor.
oughly and quickly assimilate with
the blood, purifying and strengthen
ing it, and thus drive disease from
any part of the system, and il will

Hartford, July 5.-By seeing the white
froth upon the grass, and hearing some
say, who lived upon farm more than fifty
years, it contained young grasshoppers,
reminds me of receiving the following,
through the Lewiston Journal, from Frye,
jr., and Sears, many years ago. Frye, jr.,
said: "They are called various names
snake-spittle,' 'frogs-spittle, cuckoo
spittle,' frog hopper 'foam-insect,' etc
In the perfect state they have an awkward
appearance, being short and broad, their
length being about twice their breadth.
The wing covers are nearly horizontal and
of a yellowish color, and the head has the
appearance of having been cut square oil
in front, in striking contrast with the for
mer slothlul, slovenly, larvae state when
they were incapable of any motion, save
that which produces froth. They are now
endow cd with wonderful lcapins powers,
hopping three hundred times their length.
Sears said I'VE proceeded shears in
/ hand, To- the regions OF 'froth, and cut
grass and weeds containing froth, and de-
posted them in glass vase. The mouth
OF the vase was secured by gauzc, and the
vase was placed in situation congenial for
the operation of Matching. An examine
/ ton was made ut the end OF five days.
Some dozen flies or bugs were found, but
no grasshopper. These flies or bugs I'M
der the masnifyiDg glass, bore the general
impress of the chyrSalis, just examined.
/ They had the same formed head and eyes,
same number OF legs, same joints. They
were covered with broad protrudins wings
aud were of light drab color about three
sixtcenths of an inch long. They were
very nervous and would skip two 10 four
feet when disturbed. There were no grass
hoppers." We propose 10 guess how
they are produced: In the fall and some
times in the spring we find dead grasshop-
pcrS, with their posteriors wrung into the
e.rth, rotten wood, or some other soft
substance. In the spring, perhaps in Apr,
and month before We find froth on the
grass. we find young grasshopperS in hot
early spots. Before the grasshoppcr dies
she deposits her eggs, and the heat of next
spring matches the young grasshopper. So
thinks your deponeDt" HARTFORD.

FRYEBURG, July Sth.-We are authoriZ

| ceived direct from Mrs. Plummer, the fin,
poem on Lovewell's Pond; that the auth
Dress re-wrote it for the Memorial" and
made many changes from the one that ap
peared in the DEMOCRAT.
On our glorious natal day, July ith
Fryeburg rose to the heighth other patriot
ism in doing honor TO the founders of tn is
glorious republic. The exercises of the
day were performed on the west side oil
the river in the beautiful grove below the
residence Of Mr.. Henry Andrews and con-
sisted: first Of the fantasies which
marched under the head of the Mt. Pleas
ant Band, up East Conway St., and then
back to the grave where they disbanded
and filed up to luxurious board prepared
by the hospitable people of that section.
At r. ~, all order prevailed in the grove,
by their attention being drawn toward the
speaker Of the day who was our well
known citizen Mr.. b. w. McKeen, who de-
livered that long lost Grafton Of that
mighty statesman Hon. Daniel Webster
which he delivered in this town so years
ago. He was followed by Mr.. c. NJ.
Stearns, whose Grafton was mastery and
eloquent. Mr.. John F. Hobbs Of the same
town made the forest ring with words of
constitutional liberty. His address was all
that could be desired on such an occasion.
At the close of the speaking the gathering
was marshalled by the band up to the barn
of Mr.. Andrews, where $50 couples took
the floor and kicked it out till morning.
