New England Crops.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, July 19.--The New
England Homestead will state tomorrow that
a summary of It's correspondence shows that
the work of haying throughout New England
has been much delayed by frequent showers,
which, however, have not been sufficient 10 in
jure the growing crops of all kinds, which new
or we're better at thisls Eastern Connect
icut, especially some sections Of WindhAm
county, is an exception, pasturage and growing
crops there being in want of rain More than
an average rye crop is being harvested. To-
bacco in the Connecticut and Housalonic val
eys promises remarkably we'll, aud corn and
potatoes promise heavy yield in all the New
England States. Early potatoes are turning
out well and sell AT 90 cents TO $1.25 bushel
aud other early products are giving heavy re-
turns. Berries and fruits are more profitable
than in average seasons The peach crop
promises well in southern New England, but
apples have largely fallen from the trees, and
the crop will be small. July pasturage has
not been better for years, and consequently
there is large flow of milk and continued de-
preston in the market for dairy products.

J. 1884
The Portland daily press., 1883-07-21

The correspondent of the Boston Advertiser
gave the following account of the situation:
Considerable talk is heard about confer
ence early next week, but SO far there is NJ
agreement in that respect. The caucus men
are circulating request for another caucus,
which they say will ne held next Wednesday,
provided 167 members, or majority of the
whole legislature agree to abide by its decis-
ion. This plan is Objectionable to the other
faction, as it would be a practical surrender,
and the machine wing would have strength
enough to nominate either Mr.. Rollins or Sec
retary Chandler, as they should see fit. Toe
plan which the antis seem more willing to
adopt is thus outlined by one of their leaders:
In the first place they insist that Mr.. Chandler
shall positively withdraw, and until that is
done no step will be taken to settle the existing
complications. He thrust himself into the
fight, they say. and he must take himself out
of it. Alter that is done conference is to be
held OF all wings. Iu this gathering 1t is pro-
posed that two or three names be selected
which shall be agreeable to all these gentle
men to be voted on, and whoever has the
greatest number of votes shall be supported by
the whole party and duly elected Senator.
This plan commends itself to unpreludiced
minds as perfectly fair, inasmuch as it ensures
to each side negative 10 any obnoxious asp!-
rants, and would result in the choice of Sena-
tor who would begin with the united suffrages
of the party, and whose election would leave
scars which could not easily he healed.
Neither of these plans has yet been formally
presented for consideration; but both are in the
air, and when the members come back next
week they viii be prepared to take some steps
to untangle the present snarl.- They are ready
to do so in any practical way, but the machine
managers ought TO have learned before this
that no attempt to secure by finesse what they
have failed TO gain openly will be successful.
The minority is willing TO give up personal
preferences, but il will insist ON having as q
Senator a Republican who is not mortgaged to
any interest nor the interests of any set of men.

BATH.
Field Day of the sagadahoc Historical
Society.

On Tuesday of this week members of this
society under the auspices of its presi-
dent, Mr.. A. G. Page, went on an
annual steamboat excursion down the
Kennebec river in search of antiquarian in
formation and pleasure. Including invited
friends the party comprised about forty ladies
and gentlemen, all that the tiny steamer
Dilora could we'll accommodate. The chief
historian who was aboard was the Rev. MIR
Thayer of Woolwich, who is preparing for
publication history of ancient Georgetown,
which now comprises that island, Arrowsic,
Phipsburg, Bath West Bath and Woolwich.
After passing several points of antiquarian
interest," on the river, the boat landed the party
at Squirrel Point, opposite the village of Phips-
burg Centre. This locality is famous in local
records as the chief settlement and seat OF
government Of Eye ancient times" Here was
found in a fair state of preservation what is
called the first frame house that was built on
the river. This was near the river side, while
further up the hill the location was pointed
out where stood "book house." in which the
settlers once took refuge when a raid was
made upon them by hostile Indians during the
period of King Philips war. AS tradition has
H. the hostiles had surrounded the house, the
chief cried out, ave have got you now" and
they were upon the point of making the attack
when the booming OF cannon was heard
down the river. At this the Indians fled in a
fright. 1t turned out tHat the gun was a noti-
fication that q vessel was arriving with supplies
for the colony from London, as this was an
English colony. Near this Spot was also at
later day the residence of Major Samuel Dem
ny, who was the chief magistrats of Sagada-
hook, both making dispensing and executing
laws, and who was likewise commander of the
military, which was position of power in
those early warlike days. The cemetery fur
ther on, upon the summit of the hill, shows
this ancient character was the successive pos
SCISSOR OF three wives. This cemetery is note

THE CHOLERA.

One Hundred and Forty Deaths at Cairo
Thursday-The Simplest Sanitary Pre-
cautions Disregarded.
CAIRO, July 20.-There were 140 deaths from
cholera yesterday.
ALEXANDRIA, July 20.-Twenty-nine deaths
from cholera yesterday at Mansurah@ "A at
Samanoud, % at Ghiseh, A at Chirbin, and
at Dametta. There were sixteen deaths
from the disease at Mensealeh Tuesday.
LONDON. July 20 The Standards CORES
pondent at Cairo says that unless the Engligh
authorities promptly take direction OF affairs
the checking of the spread of the cholera will
be hopeless. The simplest sanitary arrange
ments are neglected. The funeral system is
most obnoxious. Corpses sncased in very
slight coffins are carried through crowded
streets on mems shoulders. The clothes of
persons dying in the hospitals are stripped off
and taken for wearing purposes by relatives.
While man stricken with cholera was being
taken yesterday in cart to the hospital the
driver stopped opposite cafe and gave the
invalid drink from a water bottle used by
the customers of the place. A few minutes
afterwards the sick man died. The only pre-
caution taken in his case was to sprinkle q
little chloride Of lime on the corpse.
PARIS. July 90 The French consul at Pal
ma de Majorca denies the recent stat, ment
that cholera had broken out at that place.
