We have received neat pamphlet containing the
annual report Of the Seccmcu, Auditor and 81
perntenden Of schools Of the town Of stockton fur
the municipal YEA" ending March lst, 1854 The
tax payers Of stockton are here presented with
everything relating to the receipts and disbur-e-
ments of the town, in detail, with excellent re
port ON the schools by Supervisor G.. I. Black ami
with other matters Of interest The city of Belfast
might well follow Stockton's example in this re
spcct. The treasurcr's report shows that stockton
has balance i'll her treasury of 1921. 40 and that
the town Is gene rally in a good financial condition.
WOMEN SAILORS. Mary NJ. Miller has been
licensed captain Of the Saline, Mississippi
river steamboat, and this fact has recalled many
incidents of women commanding vessels. Belfast
can boast of one of whom any place might be
proud In lS75 Mrs Annie l.. McNecn, of this city,
accompanied; her husband ON voyage To Genoa,
Italy, in the three masted sch. William Frederick

Mrs. Msicen doing the business properly and she

OPENING or THE SKATING RINK. The Bclfas
Skating Rink, between High and Union streets
Capt. II. ii. Coombs proprietor, was formally open
ed on Wednesday evening OF last week. Seat,
We're provided for three hundred and at nm early
hour people began to congregatc until the seatin.
space was completely filed. Tickets had been dis
trbuttd among those living in the vicinity with tn,
request that they would be present and there were
in all five hundred persons in attendance
The interior of the rink was brilliantly illuminated
and presented an attractive appearance. The floor
was soon filled with skaters who gliteu gracefully
| over the smooth surface to the inspiring music o
the band expressly organized for this place o
Sanborn and Mark knowton cornets Will Studey
and Joseph Trussell altos, and r. p Chase from
bone. The fine music and the evident enjoyment OF
the skaters caused many of the spectators to de
clare their intention of learning to skate and it i,
evident the mania is spreading. Mrs. II. p. Chas,
Is thought by many to have carried of the palm OF
this occasion the best lady skater. The noise
made by the skates is trihng and cannot be heard
from High street, and the best of order main
tanned throughout the evening. The opening of the
Belfast Rink was certainly suspicious and it prom
ises to he a favorite place of resort.

COME NOW, CHARLES SMITH.

Man.
Tho Treasury Department bears upon Its
rolls a choice collection of "Charies Smiths" In
various bureaus, OF various grades and from
various States.
Tho Presidential candidate, Mrs. Delva Lock.
wood, recently received a postal card ANNOUNCE
Ing the writer's denunciatlon of Blaine and
allegiance TO tho Lockwood ticket. The card
scarcely be mistaken for anybody's honest ex-
precision OF political sentiments, but 1t has
caused an immense amount OF confusion
The card was headed "Treasury Depart.
ment." II was signed 'Oharles Smith," It
contained among other Information that the
Tho card was published In THE CRITIC as an
interesting specimen from the mailbag OF
presidential candidate, and that is whore the
trouble began.
The next morning the many Charles Smiths
OF the treasury were subjects OF innumerable
Jokes and taunts not calculated to eoothe their
Feelings, and before the day was over several
OF them were real mad and wanted rich, red
gore.
Then It is alleged that each Charles Smith
HE'D him TO each other Charles Smith to give
him TO understand that when he was going TO
mako an ass OF himself he should send photo
graph and diagram along that would shield
other Charles Smiths from the ignominy and
ridicule that he called forth.
None OF the Charles Smiths took the advice
kindly and none of them acknowledged writ
Ing the postal card.
The trouble is by no means over. There is
not Charles Smith In the Department that
don't want to lick the man that wrote the card,
and even tho question rs to the Secretaryship
Is tame and uninteresting In comparison TO the
conumdrum, "Who wrote that postal card?"

Here where shrewd Commerce rears the gildOd

Amid the busting but inconstant street,
Hero honest barter and keen Rvarlce meet
And speculative passion seeks homo,
Erail as the glittering and unstable foam,
Borne from wan pillows when the winds are

In scenes like these men ind no sweet repose,
Through sordid nights and long, tumultuous

With strained nerves battling for the love OF

With restful rapture past the need OF praise,
In Thoughts grim cltadel-a burdoned brain.
