Bath to Portland.

A paper is being circulated in Bath by
franklin p. Sprague. Esq. in the interest of
that Portland and Augusta steamboat line
which has been noted for SO long. Bath bus
mess men look with good deal OF favor on
the project and it really looks as If it would
go through The capital of the company is
TO be $4,000. and is being sold at 500 per
snare. Portland has already taken 1O6
shares and expects to make up total of
$4,000. p. o. Vickery is the strongest sup
porter Of the line In Augusta and feels con-
ndent that $4,000 will be taken in his sec
tlon before the eanyassing is completed.
Bath Is reckohed good for $4,000 and the
other places along the route which would
naturally have an interest In such a scheme
are reckoned good food for the balance. The
boat to go on the route is now in Norfolk,
va. 1t is craft OF 600 tons, only two years
old and very fast She is expected to make
one round trip per day, stopping at Harps-
well, Small Point and Popham, making con-
nections at Bath with the Boothbay boats
and touching at points along the river.

The Governor Robbie.

The first attempt was made yesterday
morning to float the stranded ship Governor
Robbie. The pumps, which have been kept
busy up to Tuesday night, did great work
and the hold of the vessel, in which there
was four feet or more of water, was pumped
perfectly dry. About O'Clock yesterday
morning the topsails of the ship were set for
the purpose of heeling her to starboard, but
although there was a fresh south breeze
blowing, it could not be seen that the ship
changed in the least from the upright posi-
ton in which she has remained since she
struck the rocks a week ago. The four tugs,
Confidence, Elsie, Sprague and Storm King,
then made fast to the ship and attempted to
free her from the rocks. but in spite of the
combined efforts of their powerful engines,
the ship remained fast, and after two or
three attempts the tugs were cast off and the
efforts discontinued for that tide.
1t is generally supposed that the cargo has
been nearly all DISCHARGED, but such is not
the case. The wreckers broke down
through the cargo to the hold, In order to
get chance to work the pumps, but be-
tween decks largs portion of the vessels
freight still remains undischarged After
the mornings attempt to float the ship had
proved unsuccessful, the crew resumed work
pom the cargo in order to further tighten
the ship. The fact that the pumps succeed
ed in pumping the hold perfectly dry shows
one of two things; either the vessel is not
much stove in, or else there is some sharp
rock under her which tightly fills the hole
which was made as she struck. Many think
that the latter is the case, and that a big
rock has got such hold in the planking of
the ship that she cannot be freed until light
ened and loated over the rock.
The diver claims that there is IA feet of
water at low tide within rod of where the
ship Is now caught.
The tides are on the increase as the moon
nears the full, and the wreckers are still
confident that the ship will be saved, unless
very bad weather is experienced within the
next few days.
Inc ieoge upon which the ship struck
makes out steep from the shore. and she
went on with all sails set and brisk. fair

BITS FOR BACHELORS.

AGREE with the girls father in politics nd the mother in religion.
 IF you have rival keep an eve on him; ii he is a wdoWcr keep two eyes on him.
 DoN'T put much sweet stun on paper. If you do you will hear it read in after years when your wife has some especial purpose in infllcting upon you the seycrest punish ment known tO married man.
 Go HOME at a reasonable hour in the even. ing. Don't wait until the girl has to throw her whole soul into yaWn that she can cover with both hands A little thing like tIat might cause a coolness at the very be- ginning of the game.
 IF, on the occasion of your first call, the girl upon whom you have placed your young affections looks like an iceberg and acts like a cold wave, take your leave early and stay away Woman in hcr hours of freeze is un- certain, coy and hard to please.
 IN cold weather finish saying good night in the house Don't stretch it an the way to the front gate, and thus lay the foun- dations for future asthma, bronchitis, neu- ralgia and chronic catarrh to help YOU worry the girl to death after she has mar ricd vou
 DON lie about your financial condition. It is very annoying to q bride who has pict- ured for herself life of luxury in her an- ccstral halls to learn too late that you cx- pect her to ask q bald-headed parent who has been uniformly kind to her to take you Tn out of the cold.
 IF you sit down on some molasses candy that little Willie has left on the char while wearing your new summer trousers for the first time, smile sweetly and remark that you don't mind sitting down on molasscs candy at all, and that ''boys will be boys '' Reserve your true feelings for future refer ence.
