. word on the subject Of school furniture,
Is this is the fi'st manufActory Of any note
in the State. Their sales in this line show
what can Be done, and the educational in
terest Of the State should give them hand
some support. Their models, styles and
workmanship will compare faverably with
those Of any Eastern mandatory, and
their prices are much more satisfactory.

The Most Popular Improvement
Ever Made

in instruments of this class.
1t Is now several years since the invention and
application to such instruments as the VOX HU.
MANA, which was first applied by its inventor to
the Organs OF Mason & Hamlin, who were urged to
introduce it to the public In its then imperfect
state, and especially considering its liability to get
out of order, they were unwilling to adoptt. From
that time continuous experiments tor its improve
ment have been made in tb e factory OF the Mason
& Hamlin Organ Company and elsewhere, which
have at last been eninently successful, the result
being the MASON & HAMLIN IMPROVED Vox
HUMANA, comb ming several patents.
In combination with the AUTOMATIC BELLOWS
SWELL, used only in these Organs it wonderfully in
creases the capacity and beauty OF the instrument
imparting delicious qualities of tone, and producing
novel and exquisite effects; especially adding to its
variety and deicacy of expression, and increasing,
somewhat, its power. The peculiar excellences OF
Several Orchestral In struments successfully i'm
itated; and altogether, frequently characterized
by organiss, the effect is fascinating" 1t is sim
pie in construction free from liability to get out of
order, and requires additional skill for its use,
being operated by the ordinary action of the bellows
requiring no separate pedal.

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
Fellow Citizens Of TIE Senate and House o
PORTLAND.

Fetlow Citizens Of TIE Senate and House of
Representatives.
Upon the reassembling of Congress, it again
becomes my duty to call your attention to the
state of the Union and to Its continued disor-
ganized condition under the various laws which
have been passed upon the subject Of Recon-
struction.
1t may be safely assumed as an axiom in the
government OF States that the greatest wrongs
inflicted upou.a people are caused by unjust and
arbitrary legislation, or by the irresponsible
DEGREES of despotic rulers, and that the timely
revocation of an injurious and oppressive meas
ure is the greatest good that can be conferred
upon a nation. The legislator or ruler who
has the wisdom and magnanimity TO retrace
his steps when convinced of error will sooner
or later be rewarded with the respect and graf
itude of an intelligent and patriotic people.
Our own history, although embracing period
less than century, affords abundant prOOfthat
most, If not all, OF our domestic troubles are
directly traceable to violations of the organic
law and excessive legislation.

OTTAWA, April 9.-James Whelan was brought
up Tor examination on the charge OF murder, be-
fore Police Magistrate 0garth, this morning. The
prisoner appeared much fatgued and depressed,
put when IN the dock assumed an air of apparent
indifference. There were q number of spectators
present. Mr.. 0rrly appeared for the crown The
prisoner was undefended.
Sergeant John Wade was sworn-Knew the
there on the charge Of being Fenisn and tam per-
ing with soldiers; while in Quebec he passed un.
der the name Of VIM. Sullivan. I,.l-
VIM. Graham, door keeper Of the House OF
Commons, testified of having admitted the pris-
oner four times to the gallery of the House on the
night Of the murder; be gave witness an admis.
sion ticket each time; prisoner was unaccom-
panied by any one, and appeared uneasy and ex-
cited; witness left the House before him.
Detective Neal testified to having arrested the
prisoner found in his possession revolver of
Smith NELSON'S pattern; there were six charges
IN the chambers when taken; five appeared to
have been In for some time one barrel was re-
Gently creased; the inside and muzzIe showed in
dications OF burnedlpowder, as II the revolver had
been recently discharged. He compared the bull
let produced In court with those found In the pris
0Ders tin box and also with those ia the revolver.
IL exactly corresponds with those In the cylinder
OF the revolver. Among the articles found on the
prisoner was little black covered book, which
the queens counsel considered Of Importance,
and declined opening 1t in court, but would re-
serve an examination to some other occasion.
The prisoner exhibited considerable nervousness

Mrs Trotter sworn. She remembered the
prisoner, be having twice visited her house. On
the last occasion his conduct was unbscoming
and suspicious. and she ordered him out of the
house.
Several other witnesses were examined, whose
testimony was unimportant.
Mr.. 0'Reily asked on behalf Of the prosecution
that the prisoner be remanded for eight days, as
he believed from his knowledge Of the case that
delay was important for the ends OF justice. The
prisoner said he had no objections to offer, and
the prisoner was then remsnded until the 10th.
Soma persons believe that the large quantity of
nitro glycerine lately obtained in New York on
forged orders was destined for use 10 this city as
part Of the plot which resulted In the death of
