The British frigate Hussar which is said
TO have been found at the bottom of East
River after ten years of searching was
wrecked on the 18th of November, 1870,
while on her way to Norwich, Conn. She is
supposed to have had on board nearly mil
lion pounds s'erling, which was intended
for the payment of British troops then en-
gagged in an attempt to subiugate the Ameri-
cans, aud seventy American prisoners who
were chained 10 the gun deck. The ship
struck rock in Hell Gate, and her comman-
der finding her in a sinking condition en-
deayored to beach her, but she was foated
off by the tide and sank in ninety feet Of
water. What the legal questions are, which
the men who are trying to raise her want
settled before going on with the work, is not
known

The Biddeford reporters who have been
pursuing the mystery seem to have over
taken 1t in Scarboro. II is said to have
been composed of a young man of that town,
bottle of wh.skey, and horse and sleigh,
The day before the discovery of the pool Of
blood, this young man went to Saco. cot
much intoxicated, drove into Biddeford, and
was finally thrown out. He lay Unconscious
for some time and when he came TO his
senses be found that he had received several
bad cuts which were bleeding profusely
This seems to explain the pcol of blood very
wen II throws no light on Dr. Gratton's
experience, however, and therefore the Bid
deford Times thinks there is still another
mystery.

Mayor Cummings of Bangor has exercised
the inalienable right that belongs to every
American citizen to do foolish thing in a
foolish way. He has just vetoed an order Of
the City Council to set back the town clock
in Pickering Square to make it correspond
to Philadelphia time, on the ground, for one
reason that the standard time scheme is in
conflict with the immutable laws of God and
teaches wholesale falsehood. II is difficnlt
to have any patience viii With man who talks
sHach nsense as this or to treat an argr-
ment OF this kind seriously. If Mayor Cum
mings is sincere in it and his conscience
will not allow him to permit the clock to be
set back twenty-five minutes we fail to see
how he can consistently allow any clock
over which he has control to exist at all.
Not one of them keeps true solar time on
more than four days out of the year. Every
other day in the year they are teaching
wholesale falsehood," and cannot be made
to teach anything else. To be consistent
Mayor Cummings must 60 back to the sun

The chief present want of the Industrial
School for Girls, at Hallowell, is a new
buil1ing adequate for the accommodation Of
the number who need the restraints and the
good Influences of such an institution The
reports of all connected with this charitable
reformatory show that it is we'll managed
and that it is doing an excellent work Of
which not only the inmates, but the commu-
nifty at large, derive the advantage. The in
stitution is overcrowded and SHOULD be en-
larged. This is necessity to which the
State should give immediate attention. The
work was begun by good women and good
men who have given literally to establish
and maintain it; bnt it is not right or just
hat few should assume the burden which
belongs to all. The saving of girls 10 lives
or virtue and usefulness is not less CON
Germ of the Commonwealth than the saving
OF boys and the State should either take
charge of the matter, and perform the duty
in the public interest, or give such liberal
assistance as will secure its performance on
such scale as will serve the pnblic need.
