ALONG THE WHARVES.

The Harp, Capt Sheldon. left last night
! for Nomini, where a cargo of oysters will
be taken Oh.
Carpenters are at work on the excursion
! boats George Lcary, River Queen and Jane
MoSely, repairing the damages caused by
the severe october storms.
A large force OF men are at work in the
Kennebec Ice 'Company's houses. making
room for this season crop Office. which " i'll
be cut on the kcnnebec in few days. The
ice upthere is now acknowledgements
and ready for cutting. No new ice has
been received at any of the wharves as yet.
The schooner Gertrude Trundy, Capt.
James Moore from Pensacola, Fla, with
cargo oflumber arrived at Johnson Bros
docks early this morning The trip was
made in twenty -one days. Capt. Moore re-
ports extreme business stagnation in the
lumber line in his section.
Another good thing for rivermen brought
on by the cold wave, is a raise in the
price of oysters. The bivalyes yesterday
were plentiful at from 40 to 30 cents a
bushel. This morning, however, the prices
ranged from so TO so cents, and if the
weather remains cold they win probably
be even higher in a day or two.
Thecold wave of last night has FASTENED
the departure of those schooners along the
river banks that were already empty and
put an extra impetus on those unloading,
as all desire TO be well on their way down
the river before a frost sets in. The Wind
scr, Capt. Jerry Gibson; the Horn Point,
Capt. Cheseldine, and the Eva Stiles,
Capt. Harding. left their wharves early
this morning.
Oystermen say that they have never
passed through Il season when SO few
oysters Were consumed, and from present
indications the season bids fair to be the
poorest in years. The beds above Black
iston's Islandhaye been pretty well dredged
and are now well-nigh exhausted. Below
there, however, the dredging has really
only begun and as that is where the
best oysters come from there is little
danger OF panic.

TO CURE NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA,
To Gain Flesh, to Sleep Well, to
Know What Appetite and Good
Digestion Mean, Make Test
of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets.
Interesting Experience of an Indian
apolis Gentleman.


No trouble is more common or more mis-
understoodthan nervous dyspepsia. People
having il think that their nerves are to
blame and are surprised that they are not
cured 10y nerve medicine and spring RENE
dies; the real seat of the mischiefis lost sight
of; the stomach is the organ to be looked
after.
Nervous dyspeptics often do not have any
pam whatever in the stomach, nor perhaps
any oftheusual S ymptoms of stomac hweak
ness. Nervous dyspepsia shows itself not
in the stomach 10 much as in nearly every
other organ; in some cases the heart palpi
tates and is irregular; in Others the kid
neys are affected; in others the bowels are
constipated, with headaches; still others are
troubled with the loss of flesh and appetite,
with accumulation of gas, sour risings and
heartburn.
Mr.. A. w. Sharper of No. 81 Prospect St
indianapolis, Ind, writes as follows: "A
motive OF pure gratitude prompts me to
writethese few lines regarding the new and
valuable medicine, Stu@fs Dyspepsia Tab
lets. / have been a sufferer from nervous
dyspepsia for the last four years; have used
various patent medicines and other rem
edies without any favorable result. They
sometimes give temporary relief until the
effect OF the medicine wore .off. at
tributed this to my sedentary habits, being
a bookkeeper, with little physical exercise,
but / am glad TO state that the tablets
have overcome all these obstacles, for
have gained in flesh, sleep better, AMI am
better in every way. The above is written
not for notoriety, bit is based on actualfact.
Respectfully yours,

wear the missing tinepiece in the interim
The watch was subsequently found under
