Yesterday (Saturday) afternoon articles of
incorporation of the Salem and Silvurtoii, and
the Albany and Lehnnon railroad companies
were tiled iu the otlice of tho Secretary of
State, at Salem, and also at the oilleo of the
County Clerk, in this oity. J. N. Dolph, J.

president and Joseph Simon, Esq., secretary

branch of their road from this city to Leb

We are satisiicd that tho eopli of toibanon
would rather havo it than Heid's narrow
gaage, as it would give them direct and rapid
communication with this city, but thry could
not object to having botli. If they bad the
narrow gauge alone they would be completely

ship their grain direct to Portland, or cnald

(ihapes in new Spring bonnets are so d lifer
ent that every one can have something to
suit. Tho poke bonnet, also called tho Sara
Bernhardt, has the brim pinched at the back,
while tho front brim is turned up against the
crown. Then ws may too t'so Marie Chris,
tine, which shows the front brim cut omii,
nud this also is to bo turned back ogniuit the
crown. Other hats come with soft, w hie
brims, and these are turned up, down, back
wards, forwards, or any other way, just as
the uiilliurr may fancy. The "Cashmere,
nr Oriental Ideas at to coloring and pattern,
which I alluded to in my last lutter as about
to penetrate everywhere, are notably mani
fest in straws, which wo see dyed in all sorts
of shawl like colors and designs. During the
winter, we had "Cashmere" silks and ribbons,
but now ws find as has been said, the entire
boiiuut imbued with Eastern fancies. Of
course there must be contrast somewhere,
and so wo find ich ribbons and silks iu plain
colors both dark and light, and these will
be used as shadings to relievo what would
otherw uo be a picture all too bright. Furth
ermore, as the gold shades are extremely
prominent iu Spring goods of every kind, we
observe heavy importations of Tuscan and
other yellow straws. They are at all prices
and degrees of fineness, while chips are eon
stnutly dyed iu old gold colors. Then wo
havo straws in braids of alternating colors.
There is a great run upon this latter style;
some being dark, others light; others dark
and light coiublued.tw'hile again ws see straw
lmunvts entirely red, blue or garnet, for the
dilTcrent garnet shades will continue very
fashionable. More expensive bonnets are
mails of laeo like braiding; transparent of
eour--. mid needing to lie lined, or again the
lioim-t i composed of three straw laces unit
ed with something heavier. Small turbans
for general wear, are largely brought out aud
probably w ill be much worn by those young
laJies who have adopted the satno a'iaie this
winter. Flow ets are iu wonderful profusion
and beauty. They are both large and smalt,
placed in pronounced bouquets or in trailing
and fairy like vines and sprays; the latter
styles being especially appropriate for those
rough carelessly shaped hats which will be
seen at watering places. Variety is farther
more given by tl.e introduction of feather
bands and fancy witit, which will be used
for serviceable hats and bonnets. Many are
dyed in Cashmere burs, bat again we observe
bright bauds of natural feathers, as well also
as breast and Itead of birds. Birds likewise
will be employed, but of coure not exteu-
stvcly.
lie Merino cloths are covered w itU palm
leaves and other Eastern fancies, the same
may be said of new lawns, jaconet, aud in-
ocd the whole family of cotton goods, both
of high and low degree. But invariably we
llml plain lawn etc., to match, and this o(
cotirse is a broad enough hint that plain goods
must bo combined, in order to give effect of
iliadiux. Light woolen goods are likewise
devised in cashmere patterns; summer silks
are beautiful in their shawl like semblances
new satins are similarly wrought; new velvets
as we'.t, and thus it becomes apparent that
these Oriental bless extend throughout the

To meet this exjwuso the litrict wouhV
receive publio money to the amount of aliout
$1,800, which would leavo a deficit to 1m
raised by taxation of a little over $2,000. It
was their belief that to raise this amuuut by
taxation would require a levy of 21 millu.
On account of tho present stringency iu
money matters they recommended that the
people should not take any action towards
making a change in buildings. Their n j-ort
was received and placed on file.
I. Fliuu then tuada a short speech iu which
be stated that be thought it better to only
make a levy of two mills, and coins out
liuhtlv in debt next siiriuu than to put it at
nulls and havo mouey tsken out of circu
lation and laid up iu the clerk's bands for
veral mouths. In conclusion he moved
that a tax of two mills l levied upon al'
taxable projierty in District No. S for the
purpose of maintaining free schools in s.i.l
district for the current year.
After it was seconded, J. I. Cowan moved
to amend by addiug "provided, that none
but the common English branches shall be
taught"
This amendment was scepted, and the
piostiou then being put on the original mo-
ion ss amended, it carried by a vote f 07
to uC,
A motion to adjourn then prevailed.

reason, as the managers say that our State is
too sparsely settled, aud that there are so
many largo foreign aud eastern companies in

to the wall. That is not tho whole secret.
Men who insure largely auj llaye cuiuenueut
