Historic Guns.

The sloop Perfect arrived at Bangor Aug
Goth from Fort Knox, having on board five
howitZers and their carriages consigned to
Capt. F. A, Garnsey. Four of the guns are
to be placed upon the new soldiers and
sailors burial lot at Mt. Hope cemetery, and
the fifth is for the Union Veterans Union
of Brewer and will be placed on the Sol
diers' monument lot in the Brewer cemetery.
The hOWitzerS are 24-pounders, and there
came along with them 81 of the 1o-inch
shells. The story of these guns is an inter
esting one. They were used during the
War of the Rebellion for the defense of
Belfast and Castine harbors. AT that time
earthworks were thrown up at commanding
points along the harbors and six of the guns
mounted on them for use in case any of the
Confederate privateers attempted a raid
At the close of the war the guns were taken
back to Fort Knox, where they have since
remained. Last spring the Soldiers and
Sailors Burial Lot Association of Bangor
and the U. V. U. of Brewer began making
efforts to secure the guns, They were as
sisted by Senator Frye. At first the gov
eminent refused to allow them the carriages,
but Senator Frye interceded for the associa-
tions, with the result that the carriages
were sent along with the guns.

Sunset would i'll betit ore 50 perennially

Did ever you behold a sunset at Cobbos-

wonderful man, James q. Blaine, out of
whose great soul the mastery of politics

art and nature lie was standing on the
shores Of tObbOSSee. with his friend and
pastor, Rev. DR.. Webb, at the sunset hour,
when he pronounced the scene equal to that
witnessed at the far famed Bay of Naples
An artist was asked to describe what art is,
ami he SAID 1t was the reflection Of nature IN
a lake. This was indeed the reflection |
looked upon, the other night, ''iust as the
sun went down" The reflection is even
more beautiful than nature itself, because
the sharp outlines are shaded, subdued and
eSts and the Splre of the Village church, are
created anew within the bosom Of the placid
lake. There's gateway of gold between
two familiar points of land, leading to a
secluded portion of the lake, which appears
Ike stretch of smoked glass, as though
some one We're preparing for a mighty
eclipse. The sky is gold and pink and green
and dark blue, and this in turn is reflected
in the water. What imagination easily
weaves into immense Illuminated waterfalls
appear near the western shore. Canoes
glide through this molten sea, bearing noble
young men and fair maidens. The stiffness
is broken by the voice Of a housewife on Il
distant farm, calling her children to bed,
