Eastern Maine is now discussing a story which has sensational fea tures, equalling tho famous yarns about Cant. Kidd and his treasures. For many years it has been said that Kiddllid actually bury much of his ill-got ten wealth qlong tho Maine coast, and from timo to timo arious attempts havo been made to discover tho supposed hiding-place. Many hours nt dead of night havo heon wasted in a arch for this treasure. Ho far as known the seaichcrs havo had only their labor for their pains. Of late, however, a story has been made public which Iiuh created much excitement hero. Whether it has to do with tho rienes of Cant. Kidd or romu other pirate or relates to wealth honestly gained is a question. About a century ago a lakish-looking schooner is snid to have boino doun to Maces Bay, which strikes in fiom the liav of Futuly, nn tho New Brunswick coast. Alter somo mancouvring sho ran into tho bay and camo to anchor. A boat was lowered, and with mnllled oars the men pulled for the shore. 1 he moon peeped through the clouds sufficiently bright to throw light upon tho wholo proceedings. The men dug a hole and buried their treasure. The bearingB wero taken and the boat again headed for tho vessel, which was toon running out of the bay with a still breeFe af tor her. The men who were engaged in this business have long boen dead, and the whereabouts of tlie treasure has been kent a secret until recently, when the chart lo cating it found its way into ennous hands, who determined to investigate The secret was known to two only, who a year ago went to the spot, dug up tjie long-hidden box. and leturned if empty to its hiding-place. In evidence of their snccu'S it is said that one of the men has erected a lino dwelling in the suburbs of St. Stephen. They refuse to divnliro their secret or to make any explanation. It is well Known by Calais people that the man who has built tho honse was poor a short timo ago. Now ho seems to have plenty of money, lie formerly worked as a common laborer in Calais. TilElR.

Tho Earl of Mnnnt Cakhcl, whoie death in Ireland waB announced yosterday. resided near here for ten years a tho Hon. Oeorgo Mooro Bmythe. with his fathor, who then held the title. Ho was a remarkable character. Aftor being ousted in Ireland under tho Encumbered Estates act, they immigrated here and bought a farm at Komoka. The houso was in a lonely wood, weird and picturesque. It was made the scene of wild lovelry and old-fashioned ho-pitality. Moote was unrainly in apeniance and eccentrio in manners. He usually slouched about armed with soeral pistols. Tho houso itself was au armory, it) rooms were decorated with gnus, pistols, swords and daggers. Every door and window was l Milled with bullets, the rosultof their pistol practice. Tho late Earl was a crack shot, and owned tho pistols with hair triggers and flint locks that '"Fighting Fitzgerald" used in the duel men tioned in r Charles O'Malley. " They belonged to tho first Earl of Mount-Cashel, grandfather of the deceased. Once in imi:S, when tho Sixty third Ileglmcntwas camped at Komoka, Oeorgo attempted to hit a live-cent piece at the end of his big too and shot the toe oil. Both father and son wero fond of eccentric attire. It is rolated thitt when Oeorgo returnod to Dublin he found his lather dressed in a red shirt and cowhide boots. In IHUft Moors re turned to Ireland, having recovered some of tho forfeited property, and in 18H:i succeeded to the Earldom. The flnrflelil Memorial Nenrly Completed. (SriCIAL TO THE WOULD.
