Prarrwas - u, DIE. - July 27, 1808
Judging,from the tone pf some, journals
should suppose that every industry in the
country is crippled• and that we arel'on th:
verge of ruin. A change of administration
we would suppose is necessary to save us
from entire destruction. I see nothing at
the! North to justify:, any such assumption.
Boston never seemed more prosperous, not-,,
withstanding the able articles in the North `
American by Mr. If.dams on her inability to
cOMPete in the race with New York. Nu
znerdus, and in very many cases, elegant
and costly buildings are being erected.
!Long rows of handsome granite huildings
are taken doWn to give place to more ele
gant structures, and every office is engaged
at high rates before• the. work is commerical.,
Trade is good and laborers find *pie - em
ployment at remunerative rates. In Maine
I find farmers complaining ot scarcity of
4aborers. In Boston real estate is increasing
in - value. '
•
Portland was never increasing more
,rap
idly—never showed more energy and enter
prise. The loss of C 2,00 0

ago has given to - her new life: The.burat die
trict is neatly covered with buildings
greatly. superior :to those destroyed; the
Falmouth Hotel, with the furnishings, cost
$300;000, the-spendid City Hall cost, aside
from:walls and lot, $350,000; one of the
Public School buildings $130,000, and is
second to none in the country; the Custom
House, of•finished granite, .and the Postof
flee, of marble, will of course cost, as in
ouch cases, what can be engineered for
them; the park $1 2 5,000; the lot for a mar
ket $46,000; the water , works $1,000,000;
the city has loaned its credit to two railroads
for $1,400,000, Besides these are numerous
Stores and private dwellings to the number
of two thousand. —

Long.-Pond, then which the water.is to
brought, is eighteen miles distant, contains
-one hundred and fifty square miles and
furnish water for twenty millions, to which
number the population of this city is! to be
limited. It is two hundred and seventy
four feet above the city level The pires

to be completed the present year. The cest,
when compared with the Croton, $12,009,

Rev. F. A. Noble, of the Third Pied:fps
terian Church of your city ie expected here
to preach a few Sabbaths for the State Street
Church. Thisis the best and most wealthy
church in the State. It contains many men
of great influence. The edificeis on one of
the 'handsomest streets in the world. State
street rises gradually from the. Bay, is lined'
on each side by large and fine private
dwellinnais about _eight rods wide ancl'has
eaelf side two rows of wide-spreading
elms, which wholly exclude in summer the .1
direct rays of the sun. They were greatly
pleased last year with this able and eloquent
• divine, and only waited for the dismissal of
their pastor to extend a call to Mr-Noble.
The Third Church of Pittsburgh by their
prompt action secured him. They would
be glad' to give hiin $5,000 here. •
In spite of the Maine Law, Falmouth
Hotel sold $1,200 worth of liquor the day it'
was opened and has done pciudarily a good
but morally a--very bad business ever since.
Its owner counts his property by'millions
and can that do what'others cannot.. No
other 'hotel is allowed' this privilege. If
this stream is not stopped the Maine Law
will be swept away. - - •

Return 'After Thirty -Tears' :Banishmeat,
(From the Buffalo Courier, July Z.)
An oIdJOEY. liained SamnetWashburne,
who, during the patriot war of 1887, was.
• banished "'lir-life to Van Dieman's Land by
the Canadian Goi'ernment, Thiirsday
evening.arrived in Buffalo, in search, if his
-telativeu, who live at Wales, in this cOunty.
:`The • old man is a `pitiable.object, being
cloth in rags, and, completely bioken in
health. Bewail bord. in 1809, in Bast. Hart-,,
foxd, Conn., and n 1830 came to this locality
oind took up his residence on the Cattaraugus
Reaervation. 1n1835 he went to .Canada,
add having taken part in the patriot war in
1837, was. banished to Van Dieman's
Land for, life. At the_ end of his .
banishinent he was, twenty two. years of
age.. Twosor three years ago, Queen Vic.
toria issued a ploclamation liberating the
victims of the war who were confined on
Taii - Dieman's Laud, but no provision was
made to enable thennfortunate men to reach
their native land. This old man, two years
after,the liberation, worked for ten cents a
a day to raise money eaough!to bring hiin
to this country. He reached New York
twoweeks ago, and has managed to get as
• far as Buffalo. Upon his arrival here he
was entirely destitute, but strange'to say,
'he fell in with an old citizen who knew him
when he resided in this locality many years
ago,• and who furnished him with meane:to
reachhid relatives—a brother and sister - at.

Burning of the Danville Railroad Bridge.
The railroad • bridge over, the Vermillion
Over, at Danvlile, 111., one of the most Im.
' • ''portant structures on - :he line of the Toledo - ,
Wabash and Western Railroad, was entire
ly destroyed by lire about six o'clock on
• Monday evening. -An engine had been
through -it only a few minutes before the
alarm was given, and reported it all right.
-The. bridge was fifteen hundred feet long,
' and seems to have caught near the center.
8o rapid was the spread of the fiamei4hat in
I;
eighteen mmutesatter the tire was first
-covered the whole structure fell. It will
. probably require two or three weeks to re-
I • build r and in the meantime =passengers and
baggage will have to be transferred. The
Frz,-train from the West Came in nearly on time
_and it "is thought

`=.m.mused by the accident. Work h ;

A Pretty Piece' of Business.
1 (From the New York Situ 4
.
In February, 1864, Dr. Benjaaiin Malone ,
of Philadelphia,- a paymaster in the• army,
was robbed of Government fundi to the
amount of $68,800. • Hie room, in the house
of thellon., Isaac Newton, was entered
while he was a sleep, and: his paymaster's
trunk, in Which the money was placed,
taken from it. An iniestigation recently
.had upon'his petition to' Congress to be re
leased from liability to make good the loss,
has brought to light.the astounding fact that
the robbery was planned by two men, one of
them a member of the MetroOlitaa Police,
and the other in the employ of the Treasury.i
.Department pa .a member of Colonel Baker's
detective force, where he still remains. The
worthy, plik were assisted by two profes
hional burglars 'and a volunteer! As the
Committee of Investigation says:
.” T &ease is an ' extraordinary one. Six
ty...el t thousand eight hundred dollars
were , taken frbm Dr. Malone, a Govern
ment officer, - against whom there. is no
charge of wrong, by officers then in the
Government employ. One of these men,
from his position, was enabled Ito learn
when a paymaster had drawn funds ; - the
other could stand guard as a loliceman
while their subordinates did the robliery.
That alone should have great - weight to
wards! relieving- an innocent man. But
when Added to, it we find the Goyernment
Arresting the principals, recovering part of
the money, and offered the chance of obtain
ing most -of it, yet alloWing money and
offenders to slip from its grasp, and - actually
re-employing Hogan '
the man who planned
the robbery, it is not too much to ask that
this paymaster and his sureties be relieved
as requested, which relief your; Committee
aturrdingly recommends shall be granted."
This beats Robert Macaire and Jonathan
Wild out of sight. • - 4
Tim GroarAN PoLan - ExeEnrrrozr, to the
North Pole, which sailed last May, in a lit
tle vessel of eighty tons, has lately been
heard from, in latitude seventy-five degrees
twenty minutes, off the coast of Greenland.
Unless the adventurers 'met ice, they are
probably by this time beyond the reach of
vrhaleships t the next news of them must
be brought by" themselves. • The friends of
Captain Charles F. Hall hope.,soon to hear
also from him, who has been absent - now
several years in the Esquimau country, m
search of further remains of Sir John Frank-
In and his crew. •
