HISTORY OF PARIS.
. When the messenger from Maine laid the facts before the National House of Representatives, that body appropriated ten millions of dollars to meet the probable expenses, and authorized the Presi- dent, in case Governor Harvey of New Brunswick should persist in his purpose, to raise fifty thousand volunteers for a term of six months. On the sixth of March, General Scott and his Staff arrived in Augusta and opened communication with Governor Harvey. The matter was soon settled on the basis of a withdrawal ·of the troops of both parties, and the protection of the region by a civil posse of Maine men. The question of boundary was settled in 1842, and the State of Maine in due time received two hundred thousand dollars from the National Government as a reimbursement for the expenses she had incurred in defending the integrity of American territory.
. This bloodless affray is within the memory of many, but the larger proportion of our town's people have come upon the stage of action since the flaming Proclamation of Governor Fairfield, "Our State is invaded," was issued. Many will call to mind the hurried meet- ing of the enrolled soldiers on Paris Common, and the trembling line as it stretched out past the Jail, shivering in the northern blast, or shaking from some other cause, yet the sharp repartee that occa- sionally shot out from the ranks, served to keep their courage up. The troops were pushed forward at once to the Capital, being hastily gathered from the farm, the work-shop and the school-room.
THE WAR WITH MEXICO.
This war was variously viewed from the different political stand- points. While all rejoiced in the brilliant achievements of the American arms, some could see but little justice in the dismember- ment of a sister Republic. Only two from this town entered the army operating against Mexico, viz: Daniel S. Hubbard, who voluntered from a Western State, and John Cooper, who, after following the varied fortunes of General Cushing's regiment of Massachusetts volunteers, came home to die, worn out by the ex- haustive marches.

HISTORY OF PARIS.
grand uprising of the loyal States was to prevent a dismemberment of the Union by misguided rebels in arms, and nobly was the work accomplished. The State of Maine, in respect to the number of soldiers raised and sent to the front, and also in respect to their bravery and loyalty, has a record second to no other, and the record of the town of Paris may well be pointed to with patriotic pride, by all her loyal sons and daughters. The following list embraces them all, and their names here first enrolled together, will be held in grate- ful remembrance by the future inhabitants' of this town, long after their ashes shall have mingled with the dust. "We live in deeds, not years," and those who went into the service at the call of the country and performed faithfully their part in the great struggle, cannot be said to have lived in vain, even if their lives have been barren of results before and since, and those of our sol- diers who perished in the flower of their youth, whether in the hos- pital, prison or on the field of strife, may be said to have lived long, because "that life is long that answers life's great end."
