The question has often been raised
as to the origin of the name Newport

the London Company made arrange

The Examiner contains a sketch OF
the rise and fall Of Chas. Shortridge,
and attributes his bankruptcy to an
inordinate love of champagne.
Charlie got an idea some years ago
that there was too much French wine
In San Francisco and it must be con-
sumed and got ont of the way.
He had John Spreckles money to
assist him in the laudable enter prise
of downing the accursed foreign
brand, and was succeeding admirably
when the news reached France that a
raid was in progress and the French
dealers, with patriotic pride, sent
1einforcements.
Shortridge was rapidly cleaning
out the French champagne, but he
went down before the reserves. Sew
eral ship1oads Of these arrived in one
day and at midnight Shortridge gave
up the fight and acknowledged defeat
In the biographical sketch he is
credited with once owning the AP.
PEAL. This is an error, but, O.
course only small one.

HANCOCK COUNTY SKIPPER.

that Hayes had treated them after the manner
of ancient mates, who had habit OF enforcing

Usually, the ili-treated sailorman permits him
self TO be persuaded 10 go TO In another ship

brought TO trial. In this Instance the seaman's
legal aid society decided that the nineieen com
plainants should press the case against Hayes.

One story has II that the skipper was pat ON

Another Is that about half an hour before the
bark drew out of her dock a truck containing a

A Boston trade paper says: 1.-THE boot
and shoe market is more quiet, and trade
is rather disappointing to those vi no have
been expecting more business as the sea-
son advanced. The joobers are follow ing
out very conservative plan OF buying,
claiming hat they have to proceed care
fully, by reason OF an unsatisfactory re-
tail trade, and considerable stocks of
goods on hand. 1t is suggested that
goods were overproduced aud oversold
on the active demand of few month
ago, and now the market viii have to
wait till such stocks have been thorough
ly sold.
"a few OF the shoe factories are running
full, but generally those running full are
the makers OF special lines and goods of
great reputation. Regular lines of staple
goods are moving only slowly, witt orders
not what they should be at this season. To
the general run OF shoe manufacturers
trade ie disappointing, though some bust
ness is being done. Cheap goods are
especially dull, and in some quarters this
is looked upon as good feature.
1.-The backwardness of the season Is
thought to be having much to do with
the dizziness OF the shoe market, W hile 1t
is confidently expected that a better
trade is coming. Boot and shoe ship
men Is are yet small, compared with other
seasons"

Old Home Week .
bfkUN VIl1, ctCretdfy
Augusta, Maine, May /. 1860.

The s'Old home week" idea that
was so successfully carried out last
year in New Hampshire has touched a
responsive chord in Maine. A call
has been made which appears to be
meeting with the heartiest kind of
response.
Briefly the scheme is that at given
unexpectedly the first seven days in
August will be designated-every
person who has ever lived in Maine,
and every descendant of former resi-
dents who can shall make a pilgrim
age to his native State.
The plan commends itself, and
needs no further commentator. 1t
is probable that thousands of her sons
and daughters will accept the invita-
ton that Maine will soon formally
issue.
1t is probable that Gov. Powers,
perhaps not in his official capacity,
but as president of the Old Home
week association, will issue a per-
sonal invitation to the Maine born
people, who are now in other states,
to return TO Maine during the week
set apart for that event. In order for
him TO do this it will be necessary for
him to have the names and addresses
of the people who are now out of
Maine, and for these he will depend
L.
people to send list of the names of
their friends either to the executive
department at the State house, Au-
gusta, or to Hon. L. T. Carleton, OF
the fish and game commission, who is
secretary of the committee.

With wholesome promptness the
country is recovering from the embar-
rassment of unnaturaEy high. prices,
says Dun's Rerieu. In some lines the
great manufacturing associations
have taken the lead; in others reduc-
ton is still deferred because the en-
tire producing capacity is engaged at
high prices for some months to come;
in others it comes in spite of resis-
lance, because buyers hold back Or
ders for their own protection until
material concessions are made. No
disturbance nor stringency of credits
results, nor any sign of alarm, and
the movement is perhaps more healthy
than il could have been if entirely
controlled by the competition of many
small concerns. The proportion of
works and of hands unemployed is as
yet quite small, and the volume of
business transacted, though less than
last year in New England and in mid
die state cities, is larger than ever
before at tifty-four out of sixty-three
clearing houses in the entire region
west of Pennsylvania and south Of the
Potomac.

HARDWOOD DRIVE.
Success of this Years Experiment may
Mean Much for Ellsworth.

Success of this Years Experiment may
Mean Much for Ellsworth.
Rocerick Mcdonald has demonstrated
to his own satisfaction, aud to that OF the
men behind the enterprise. that hard
wood logs can be driven. The hardwood
cut at No. SO plantation last winter has
been rushed along to Ellsworth, and came
in in pretty good shape. A few logs were
lost, but not more than expected.
Mr.. Mcdonald ssys that the drive has
proved also that logs can he driven with
out the expense OF painting the ends to
keep out water, or boring and plugging
the logs to give added buo,ancy. Logs
SO treated as An experiment, did not swim
any better than those not SO treated. Mr.
Mcdonald says that logs cut in the sum-
mer and allowed to season until the fol-
lowing spring, can undou btediy be driven
Wit hout material loss.
This the men " no msde the experiment
this winter propose to do il contracts can
be made, and there is every indicat ion
that there will be. A crew of men would
go in the woods as soon as t,rsctica BILE to
cut. The logs would be driven early in
the spring before the soft wood drives
came along.
The development OF the hardwood
industry means much to the future of
Ellsworth. Ii IL estimated that on No. 80
plantation alone there are 7o, 900 600 feet
OF hardwood timber, OF fine quality.
