The Republican journal., 1888-12-20

In last weeks journal a notice was given of the
recently published history Of Eastport by W. ii.
kilby. We now take the liberty of quoting from a
private letter from the author, as follows "Mr.
Weston, with his personal familiarity with the
early history of the town, might have made more
interesting chapter, but it was hulTiedly written
when he was i'll failing health. The little pam
phlet was published at - cents. Last summer the
Massachusetts State Librarian paid SG.15 for a
copy and they have been sold at Il still higher
price. Mr.. Sabine's chapters are Of great his
torical value, and at the last Of his life lie was
anxious to have them put into permanent shape in
some way. Several years ago a lot Of documents
came into my possession which thought threw
new light on the boundary question: and put the
result of my Investigations into the chapter on
The Story of the Boundary Line And by the
way the Misses Watson, of Boston Highlands (fol-
mery of Belfast) have in their possession one of
Alitchelrs maps of l.55, the same was in use at
Paris at the time of the treaty Of 11S9 and the only
copy ever saw. 1t is large, well executed, and !
glad to have the opportunity of examining it,"

The Portland Press hardly needs commentators

the best, and Is dcservedly popular with Maine
readers. The Press prospectus for lss9 will be
found in the supplement.
The Scientific American, published by Mum &
Co., New York, presents weekly to its readers the
best and most reliable record of various improve
ments in machinery, the arts, and the technical in

regular perusal of its pages.
The night of Dec. II the office Of the Portsmouth.
n. H., Daily Penny Post entered and every
type case upset and the forms of the paper "pied."
The damage will exceed $500. There is no clue to
the guilty parties, but it is supposed the act
done il a spirit of revenge for articles published
in the paper. The Post, with the assistance of its
contemporaries came out as usual, and no doubt
will make it warm for the offenders

TOLD THE MICE ALL ABOUT ITS YOUTH.
that it forgot to think of itself, and could
only look about, there was SO much to be
seen. The court was close to Ii garden,
where everything looked blooming. Fresh
and fragrant roses hung over the little pal
ings. The linden trees We're in blossom;
while the swallows few here and there, cry
ing: 'Twit, twit, twit, my mate is coming"
but it was not the fir tree they meant. Now
l shall live" cried the tree, joyfuly, spread
ing out its branches; but, alas. they We're all
withered and yellow, and it lay in corner
amongst weeds and nettles. The star of gold
paper still stuck in the top of the tree, and
glittered in the sunshine. In the same court
yard two of the merry children We're playing
who had danced round the tree at Christmas,
and had been SO happy. The youngest saw
the gilded star, and ran and pulled it off the
tree. "Look what is sticking to the ugl old
fir tree" said the child treading on the
branches till they cracked under his boots.
And the tree saw all the fresh. bright
flowers in the garden, and then
looked at itself and wished it had
remained in the dark corner of the garrett
Then lad came and chopped the tree into
small pieces, till a large bundle lay in heap
on the ground. The pieces were placed in
fire under the copper, and they quickly
blazed up brightly, while the tree sighed SO
deeply that each sigh was like a little pistol
shot Then the children, who We're at play,
came and seated themselves in front Of the
fire, and looked at it, and cried, Pop, pop,'
But at each pop" which was a deep sigh,
the tree was thinking of a summer day in the
forest or of son@o winter night there, when
the stars shone brightly, and of Christmas
evening. Now all was past; the trees life
was past, and the story also-for all stories
must come to an end at last.-Adapted from
Hans Christian Anderson.
