| PuFFs FROM TIE SEA BREEZE. From No. :; of
the IS series clip as follows: We understand
| taxes higher this year than last, the town
| raising thousand dollars more for expenses
than last year; 300 of this amount goes for pur-
chasing a hcarsc and $500 more for general ex-
| penses. The cottages on or around the grounds
| here furnish about $500 of the towns taxes
The great need Just to help boom Northport
| and to add to its visitors is reduction of rates
from Bangor and upriver and from Rockland, on
| g. 4 b. steamers. Cheap rates are what bring the
crowds. 1t costs a boat no more to bring 100 than
80, and satisfies the public demand. Think of it,,
gentlemen managers. VIM. +. Wales, of IIamp-
den, has lately purchased the SWEET or Carey cot
tage adjoining his own Bay Terrace and will
