The Machias Steamer.
“I see there is a movement made to get a
steamer on this route next season. I think if
your Portland merchants should put this
through you would make good thing of it.
I think Millbridge alone would buy $100,000
worth of goods In a season, in Portland, if
there was a steamer between the two places.
Clierryfield and adjoining towns probably
$400,000 more, besides all of the intervening
towns between here and your place would
make a large trade which you have never had
before. It would then be convenient for east
ern merchants to go to market once or twice
every week and Portland would get their cus
tom sure, if there was a boat.”
To the Editor qf the Press:
The above is an extract from a letter writ
ten by a merchant at Millbridge, to one of our
enterprising firms on Commercial Street, and
it speaks the general feeling of our eastern
merchants in regard to the great benefit which
wdl be realized by Portland as well as them
selves, when the boat is placed on the route
heuce to Machias, touching at intermediate
towns aloug the coast; and it is to be hoped
our merchants and others interested, will im
mediately and cheerfully subscribe for the bal
ance of stock, (about $15,000), which will en*
able the Committee having the matter in
charge, to go ahead. Steamboat.

un weoLoui.— 1 ms eveningai
fords the last opportunity, save one, which
our citizens will enjoy of listening to the very
interesting and instructive lectures of Profes
sor Cunning upon the science of Geology.—
The special topic of the lecturer this evening,
is the Glacial Period, that period geologically
recent, though historically ancient, when a
great part of our land was under an icy sea,
and when the Arctic current flowed through
it, washing the flanks of our mountains, and
when whales and seals gamboled where now
are forests and grain fields. The period is a
deeply interesting one, and none should lose
the opportunity of hearing what Professor
Gunning has to say upon it. •

The Fenian Congrese.
New Yobk, Dec. 9.
At a session of the Fenian Senate, held in
this city on the 7th inat., articles of impeach
ment were filed against Jno. O. Mahoney,
President of the Brotherhood, for perfidy and
malfeasance in office. The charges and speci
fications were very minute and volumnious,
were served upon O. Mahoney the following
day with notice to put in a plea in response
within 24 hours under penalty of having judg
ment hy default recorded against him. O’Ma
honey, having taken no steps to meet the in
dictment against him, the Senate on the 9th,
resolved itself into a court of judicature, ac
cording to the provisions of the Constitution,
and having investigated the charges, declared
them proved, ane deposed O’ Mahoney.
Mr. W. R. Roberts, the Vice President, was
unanimously elected, and sworn into office.—
B. D. Killiar, the Secretary of the Treasury,
was also deposed.
John O’ Sullivan, signing himself late Cen
tre from Marlow, county of Cork, Ireland,
sends a card to the papers to the effect that
W. B. Roberts declared to him that he would
destroy the present Fenian organization, and
establish a new one in its place, and that oth
ers of the Senators whose names are published,
asserted in substance that they would tear
down the present brotherhood and erect one
suited to themselves. Propositions were made
he says to various members of the Irish broth
erhood, now in this country, to join those con
spirators and preach a new gospel, which they
indignantly refused to do. The Irish, he says,
recognize Col. O’ Mahoney as chief head of the
organization.
New Yobk, Dec. 10.
A convention of delegates from the various
Fenian Circles of this city was held yesterday,

Cotton Frauds—Address of Judge Fasehal.
New Orleans, Dec. 7.
The Monroe, La. Register complains of mil
itary interference by force of arms, to take
from that parish a Treasury sub agent who
was arrested by a judge’s decree, on an affida
vit charging him with stealing cotton, and get
ting cotton under false pretenses. It makes
strong complaint against the Treasury agents’
management in that section, and southern Ar
kansas. It states that the Treasury agent at
New Orleans has instructed his agent at Mon
roe, to disregard the writs of sequestration
and injunction issued by State courts. Claims
to cotton taken by the agent, must be tried,
investigated, and the cotton forwarded to New
Orleans.
Judge Paschal on his return to Austin, is
sued an address to the people of Texas, inform
ing them what would be required to get the
State back into the Union. That the State
convention must declare slavery abolished.—
That it can never exist except as punishment
for crime,—and recognizing the rights of the
negro as freemen, not implying thereby, how
ever, his social equality at the polls. The Leg
islature must ratify the Constitutional Amend
ment, and declare the secession ordinance, the
ratification of the confederate constitution,
and the dependant acts for resistance null and
void, and also the State war debt.
The judge cautions the people who they
elect, to carry these measures into effect —
Great importance will be attached to their
choice, as an evidence of their sincerity. The
general constitutional reforms outside of the
above measures, will not be allowed unless
submitted to the people for ratification.

Louisville, Kt., Dec. 9.
In Jefferson Circuit Court, in the case of

ground that the requisite number of States

were of no effect.

The E. & N. A. Raieway.—Many who
claim to be well disposed towards this enter
prise, feel very incredulous if mention is made
of the fact that work has commenced on the
eastern terminus at St. John. They afreet to
believe the recent ceremonies attending the
commencement of work there to be an ex
ceedingly clever dodge of the Directors, but as
really amounting to nothing. So far the Ban
gor Times, and then our lively eastern con
temporary copies from the St. John Globe to
show that the “work at the end of the road
is progressing at a fair rate of speed, but not
so rapidly as it might do” if the excellent
weather wa3 taken advantage of.
It does look a little queer, though in perfect
keeping with the whole enterprise, to see this
work begun by an American company at the
British end, when every dollar pledged or
promised to the company is contingent on the
“finishing and completing” of this end of the
line.

WOULD most respectfully give notice to their
friends and the public that they have bought
the stock and taken the store reeently occupied by
the late WM. GERRISH, and secured the services
of Mr. CALEB S SMALL to select and buy our
stock of
Boots, Shoes and Rubbers!
We can, we think, (without fear of being contra*
dieted,) give our friends and the public greater in
ducements to give ns a call before purchasing else
where, and for many other reasons: First, our ex
penses are light. Second, oux store is centrally lo
cated. convenient for all. Third, we shall aahere
strictly to the PAY DOWN SYSTEM, and being
determined to be as good as our word we defy au
competition, and will not be undersold at any rate.
N. B.—The old stock of the late Mr. Gerriah we
have marked down to Less than Half the Cot', and
would invite the attention of the ladies who are in
want of House Shoes or Slippers to look at them im
mediately, and by so doing they will secure the best
bargains.

MEDICAL ELE CTBICITT
DR. W. N. DEMING,
Medical Electrician,
174 MIDDLE STREET,
Nearly Opposite the United States Hetel,
WHERE he would respectfully announce to the
citizens of Portland and vicinity, that he has
permanently located in this city. During the two
years we have been in this city, we have cured sane
of the worst forms of disease in persons who have
tried other forms ot treatment in vain, andcuring
patients in so short a time that the question is often
asked, do they stay cured? To answer this question
we will say that all that do not stay cured, we will
doctor the second time without charge.
Dr. D. has been a practical Electrician for twenty
one years, and Is also a regular graduated physician.
Electricity is perfectly adapted to chronic (liseauea in
the form of nervous or sick headache; neuralgia hi
the head, neck, or extremities; consumption when
in the acute stages or where the lungs are not fully
involved; acute or chronic rheumatism, scrofula, hip
diseases, white swellings, spinal diseases, cnrvatnre
of the spine, contracted muscles, distorted limbs
palsy or paralysis, St. Vitas’Dance, dealhess, stam
mering or hesitancy ol speech, dyspepsia, indiges
tion, constipation and liver complaint, piles—weeure
every case that can be presented; asthma, bronchi
tis, strictures of the chest, and all forms of female
oomplaints.
By Electricity
The Rheumatic, the gouty, the lame and the lasv
leap with joy, and more with the agilitv and elastic
ity of youth; the heated graid is cooled; the frost
bitten limbs restored, the nnconth deformities re
moved; faintness converted to vigor, weakness to
strength; the blind made to see, the deaf to hear and
the palsied form to move upright; the blemishes ot
youth are obliterated; the accidents of mature life
presented; the calamities ot old age obviated and an
active circulation maintained.
LADIES
Who have cold hones and feet: weak stomachs, lame
-and weak backs: nervous and sick headache; dizzi
ness and swimming in tho head, with indigestion and
constipation of tho bowels; pain in the side and back;
leucorrhasa, (or whites); falling of the womb with In
ternal cancers; tumors, polypus, and all that long
train of diseases will find In Electricity a sure means
of cure. For painful menstruation, too prolhse
menstruation, and all of those long line of trouble*
with young ladies, Electricity Is a certain specific,
and will, in a short time, restore the sufiferer to the
vigor of health.
TEETH t" TEETH I TEETH 1
Dr. D. still continues to Extract Teeth by Elec
tricity without pain. Persons having decayed
teeth or stumps they wish to hove removed for reset
ting he would give a polite invitation to call.
