Belgrade Mills, May 80th, 1870.
Dear Jolbxal :—I uolieed in one of your
daily issues an account of the manufacture of
spools at Weld. I wish to speak of the busi
ness done in that line in the quiet little vil
lage of Belgrade Mills. Messrs. D. & H. W.
Colder have bought the past winter ten thou
sand and fifty cords of white birch timber, at
an average cost of about four dollars per
cord, putting into the hands of the farmers
forty-two hundred dollars. They make sev
en hundred gross of spools daily, and have
contracts for six months. Colder & Goodwin,
Excelsior Manufacturers, have bought four
hundred cords of poplar Rt an average cost of
three dollars and fifty cents per cord. They
make one ton daily, with contracts for all
they can do for one year at least. N, W.
Towle has bought two hnndred cordsof brown
ash that he is sawing into headings. We have
also a manufactory of rakes and spade han
dles, which is doing quite an extensive busi
ness. We have one saw mill and a grist mill,
with a never-failing water power, capable of
performing twice the the amount of labor.

[Special Despatch to the Daily Journal]
Gardiner, May 31
Fite.
The house on Spring Street occupied by
Andrew llarriman, was destroyed by fire this
afternoon at about three o'clock. The fire
was not discovered until it had enveloped the
w hole of the second story. The family lost
all their furniture, clothing, &c., in the second
story, only saving a few articles on the first
floor. I.oss ahout one thousand dollars; in
sured for SCOIJ on the house; no insurance on
furniture. Supposed to have caught from a
spark.
FORTY-FIRST CONGRESS.
Washington, May'.'ll.
Senate. At the evening session a bill for
supplying the deficiencies in the appropria
tions for compensation of the milage ot mem
bers of the House of Representatives, com
ing up. the amendments by the Committee on
Appropriations, appropriating §1,400 for de
ficiencies in the appropriation for collecting
custom, and §20,000 to enable the Secretary
of tlie Treasury to pay a special counsel,
were debated.
•Mr. T minlmll remarked, that the bringing
in of the deficiency bill, indicated that the
sliow of economy in cutting down the appro
priation bills bad been a mere pretence. He
argued that Ibis deficiency of almost a million
and a half of dollars was enormous. The
figures showed that the collection of surplus
revenue for the first half of the present fiscal
year, cost 7 per cent, more than its collection
in the first six months of the preceding year.
The excess of appropriation asked for to col
lect custom revenue for the present year, was
nearly §1,000,000 greater than the amount
asked for last year. He desired to know the
reason of this extraordinary increase.
Mr. Morrill of Vt., said that the Secretary
of the Treasury certainly could not spend one
dollar beyond the amount authorized by law.
He deprecated the apparent impeachment of
the Secretary by the Senator from Illinois.
Mr. Morrill of Me., stated as the reason
assigned by the Secretary of the Treasury
for increased expense in collecting tbe*eus
tom«. that there had beer, an increase of thir
teen or fourteen millions in the revenue.
He had nut asked the Secretary to go into
details, as he supposed him honest.
The amendments were agreed to and the
bill passed.
Adjourtiod.
ilorsF.. The House resumed the Internal
Revenue bill, and the paragraph defining
wholesale liquor dealers, and increased the
minimum from a quart to a gallon, Mr.
Schenck of Ohio having thrown upon the
i low tariff men and free traders, the responsi
bility of the failure of the Tariff bill.
Mr. Hutler of Mass., said he had not voted
to lay the Tariff bill asiito. until the gentle
man (Schenck) had told the House and
country that he had no hope of passing the
bill this session; and he had hoped that the
gentleman would then bring in a short bill,
making a reduction of the tariff. He had
also hoped to have a short internal revenue
bill reported. He would now tell the gentle
man he could not get through the House the
pending, long bill, any more than the tariff
bill, and its consideration was only so much
time thrown away. He had hoped to see the
inrome tax abolished, and he intended to ask \
the House to instruct the Committee on Ways j
and Means, to report a short bill for the re
duction of the internal revenue taxes, and of
tax gatherers anil officials, and for the aboli- j
tion of the inquisition, into the business of!
the people. He did not care so much as to
the amount they paid, as the manner in which
they paid it. They did not want to be in
quired of, as to what they had for breakfast
anil dinner, and what they were going to have
for supper.
Mr. Schenck replied in effect, that a short
bill was impracticable. The pending bill bad
the sanction of the Treasury department, and
the Senate were waiting for it.
After further discussion, the House ordered
the previous question on the first section, and
cutting otf the debate, struck out the second
section, which permits the purchase bv or
for the use of the United States, any articles
free of tax.
The House progressed witli the bill as far
as section sixteen, but a few unimportant
amendments being made.
Adjourned.
