NJ all Routes

Commencing Monday last there were
several changes In the Mail routes in this
County. The western Mail reaches Scion
and Bingham via the Somerset railroad,
leaving Scion Or Embden on arrival Of
the train at night and going by stage the
same evening TO bingham. The trains
above Bingham are supplied by stag
leaving that town In the morning arriy-
ing AT the Forks AT noon and returning t.
Bingham ut night. 1t lcaves bingham
early enough in the morning Ia strike III,
morning train from Enhdrn. fhi
brings The Forks u half day noarcr P3l
land and Boston by public couNcyauc,
and the mail that formerly arrived a
night gets there at noon. This works par
ticularly to the advantage of Bingham IA,
that Is made night stopping place boti
ways instead of noon station.
The stage with mail runs from here Il
Solos and back leaving in the morning
after arrival Of train returning at night
also three trips per week directly through
to The Forks.
The Mercer Stage is run by Marshal
Stevens with two trips per day to Norrl
dye nock but Mail only on the one tina
leaves here at $50, =. NJ. and arrives here
at $50, A. NJ.
There is no change in the time of tn,
Athens, Canaan or South Scion Mai
routes and the stages are driven by the
same drivers as heretofore except tn,
South Scion which will be run by True
man Fletcher.
l.. &. Lord has bought out the sub con
tractor of the Canaan Mail route and will
continue to run a stage between Skow
hogan and that village. He knows tn,
route and business well having driven il
some II years.

1t has been discovered that a steamer
arrived last Wednesday from llayt with
news that the Clyde steamer OSoeama
had been captured by the liaytien gun
boat LIZ Defense and the Corvette Desa-
lines, and held for three hours. Capt.
Kellogg of the L. S. s. OSsipee, demand
ed her immediate release. Legitime re-
fused, except under conditions, Captain
Kellogg sent word to Legitme that unless
the steamer was released within five
hours, and $4,000 indemnity paid by Legi-
time, the Ossipee would lombard the
city. Legitime paid the money and re-
leased the Osseame. The cablegram was
from Capt Kellogg to Secretary Tracy,
announcing that Legtime had captured
the New York steamer. That news was
sufficient to stir up the navy and Stats de-
partments, aud the officials of the latter
thought it necessary to keep the news
secret.

[ Bangor Whig.l


"Our friends, the enemy" need mo-
flatter themselves that Republican divis
ion will throw away Ohio this year. AL
of the Republican leaders in the State
have pledged Governor Foraker hearty
support, the defeated candidates going
on record to this effect at a ratification
meeting Friday night. Congressman
Mckinley and Grosvenor, previously re-
garded as antagonistic to Foraker, gave
assurance of support, while hundreds
of congratulatory kilograms have since
been received by the Governor. These
were from party leaders, men of influence
in the State. Among them was one from
ex Governor Charles Foster, now on the
Sioux Commission, saying "When the
Indian chief with the new name gets
through with his work, his service will
be at YOUR command"
