The threatened split in the International So
ciety took place yesterday. The Federal Coun-
Gil met in the morning and held a very stormy
session. Section O., the Oldest in the country,
presented its withdrawal, and scene of great
confusion ensued. Excited speeches and mu-
tual recriminations were with difficulty re-
to be the failure of the offending section to en-
dore the views of the party responsible for the
nomination of Presidential candidates at Apollo
Hall The announcement of split in the gem
| eral council in London and the formation of a
| rival body under the name of Universalist Fed
| aral Council was made. ~.

CoNcERNING CIRcUsEs.-Without doubt the
people have arrived at some conclusion in re
spect to the merits of Stone & Murray's circus,
which will be in Portland on Thursday next
If it were a new establishment making its first
tour through the country it would require con-
siderable effort to make itself properly known;
but Stone & Murray have been this way SO
many times that the name of the firm is
well-known and synonymous with excellence.
There is one good trait in the management:
they strive for the best of everything, and in
regard to horses, performers and all the ap-
pointments no company that ever travelled has
ever surpassed them. In their visit of 1872
they will be accompanied by all the old favor
ties of the arena, and the company will be
strengthened by the introduction OF some OF
the best new names the country affords. Read
carefully the advertisement which is on the
first page of this mornings paper 1t is a we'll
written and convincing argument that Stone &
Murray are deserving the patronage of every
man, woman and child who has desire to en-
joy the exciting sports of the ring.
