PRoF TRIP delivered last evening in Fluent
Hall, the second lecture of his course in Port
land on the subject of the Counter Revolution
of june following the revolution of February.
The lecturer remarked that history was said
to repeat itself, and that the student might OBJ
serve in the terrific street fight of the June Bar
| ricades of 1913, counterpart of the bloody
struggle between the Theirs government and
the Commune of 1871. No people were more
passionately enamored of liberty than the
French. The reasons for not securing it here
tofore might be found not so much in the lack
of intelligence or the incapacity for self gov
eminent, as in the unfortunate condition of
parties, and especially in the existence of a Do
ltical sect with subversive theories, ever ready
to compromise the establishment of a conserva-
tive republic. The present the lecturer thought
most favorable moment to secure free institu-
tons in France. The leading spirits of the
Commune had been disposed of, the patriotism
of nation would dread the risk of a change of
government, and the watchful German Chan
cellor would be quick to exert his powerful in
fuence to prevent the return of the Imperial
lists to power
The lecturer then proceeded 10 his delinea-
ton of the Counter Revolution of June. All
the eventful scenes in the stirring drama were
most wildly sketched the herculean efforts of
the Provisional government to establish Re-
public; the sacking of the Tuilleries; the Fete
de Ia Concorde; the terrific street fight of the
barbados and the death of the Archbishop of
Paris. One of the most effective passages of
the lecture was the account of the prodigious
F. n r
Vile, when by the feat of his inspiring elo-
quence he effectually transferred the maddened
mob .teT .ral. .Tar t-4a HfErI
The next and third lecture will be delivered
in Fluent Hall this Saturday evening, on the
subject of Louis Napoleon from birth to the
Imperial throne, subject, the lecturer remark
ed, that had always attracted lively interest.
There will doubtless be an unusually large au-
dience. The attendance last evening was con-
siderably larger than ON the previous occasion.

THEATRICAL Mr.. Proctor returns
to the scene of some of his professional tri-
umphs, to renew old associations and form new
friendships. The part of Jack Cade, which
he has selected, is a historical character, a rep
resentative of the popular might in one of the
great epochs of English history. 1t is robust
creation, well-fitted for an actor like Mr.. Proc
tor, stalwart man with a magnetism that
controls the masses and inspires to heroic
I deeds. Mr.. Proctor is Mr.. Forests only rival
in this part, and though the former is by no
means an imitator, his rendering is fully as eff
fective as the latter's. We bespeak for him
generous patronage. .t-........5 ...

Experiences of a Barrister.
Conclusion.

The Jury were not disposed TO retire.
After communing few minutes together,
one Of, them stood up and delivered the
verdict Of GhiNy! The judge assumed
the crowning badge of the judicial po-
tentate-the black cap and the clerk oi
arraigns asked the prisoner at the bar, in
the usual form, if he had anything to urge
why sentence Of death should not be pass
ed upon him.
Poor Harvey burst scarcely look at
him. AS the sonorous words fell on his
ears, he was grasping nervously with
shaking hands at the front OF the dock.
He appeared stunned, bewildered, as a
man but halfawakened from, a hideous
dream might be supposed to, look!I He
had comprehended, though he had scarce
ly heard the verdict; for on the instant,
the voice which but few years before
sang to him by the brook-side, was ring
ing through bis brain, and he could
recognize the little pattering feet of his
children, as, sobbing and clinging to their
shrieking mothers dress, she aud they
were hurried out of court. The clerk,
after painful pause, repeated the solemn
formula By strong effort the doomed
man mastered his agitation ';S his pale
countenance lighted up with indignant
fire, and fra and selfpossessed, he thus
replied to the fearful interrogators
s@Much could say in The name, not Of
mercy, but of justice, why the sentence
about TO be passed on me should not be
pronounced but nothing, alas that will

GENTLE HINTs.-When you call at The Of

to ask at different times through the day.
Don't bring your mail to the Office till the
mail closes; then curse the postmaster for not
opening the mailbag and putting your letters
in. When you want stamp ON your letter,
tell the postmaster to put it on; if he don't
like it, lick him. In case youput it on your
self soak il in your mouth long enough TO re-
move the mucilage; it will then stick until il
is dry.
Be sure to ask the postmaster TO credit you
for stamps; if he has any accommodation
about him, he will do it.
If you have box, stand and drum on it.
until the postmaster hands out your mail; it
makes him feel especially if he is wait
ing on somebody else.
