The steam propellor Whir'- wind has just been repaired and fitted to carry passengers. A beautiful new propellor of about 700 tons burthen is now on the stocks for James Hunting- ton & Co to be launched about the middle of July. The propellor She- tucket is also on the railway under- going repairs. Mr. Wetmore is pre- paring to build a new stone wharf of 400 feet front. The extensive new Tolling mill of the Thames Iron Works is nearly com- pleted. In the list of casualties in_the as- sault upon Port Hudson. Col. Kingsley of the 26th regiment is reported wound- ed everely in the jaw. A dispatch from Gen. Pemberton at Vicksburg to Gen. Johnson, captured on Thursday, read: “Our forage is all gone.

Three new laws of the state are of particular _importance to the small towns. They were introduced and persistently pushed to the enactment stage by Representative Lewis of Westbrook. They are aimed to pre- vent recurrence of unfortunate inci- dents in the management of the fi- nances of a town, such as shortage in accounts of the town treasurers and tax collectors. Several towns in recent vears have lost heavily through this cause. Lack of system in ac- counting for moneys collected was the primary fault. The first new law establishes a uni- system of tax collectors’ re- It will be impossible for a to retain money collected without there being a record of the fact should the tax receipt be used an2 use is made compulsory. The original receipt goes to the per- sou paying the tax. while a manifold duplicate remains in the tax book. it bears a number its absence would requires an explanation. A violation of the law carries a penalty of $100. The second law requires that all town orders shall be accounted for by the stubs on which shall, be described the transaction. These stubs become a record of the selectmen or treasurer or whoever draws the order, and a report must be made officlally as to these stubs. This safeguards outgo- ing_treasurers. The third law requires that bonds of tax collectors and treasurer shall be furnished through surety compa- nies. This protects the town. There have been several cases of default of town officers where it has been im- possible to collect the face of the bond signed by friends. MAIL CONTRACT. Secured by Charles E.
