HOURS OF GOEERNOk MOVES. AID
AlINISTRATION. s
While an immense crowd of people
was collecting about the State House
to witness the inaugural ceremonies
(for it commenced to assemble early
in the day), an affecting incident was
having place in theExecutiveC Chamber,
of which eIeNwere but one or two
eye witnesses. Hundreds of guests
had called, and scores were calling, to
say their good byes to GoverporNoyes
Among those who entered the cham
Der, howayeP. was an old man, thin,
wrinkled, pale and gray haired, and
much bent by age and manifest suffer-
ing. He timidly asked to see the
Governor, who stepped aside to
window with him. The old imam said
he would have called before, but had
been sick. He came at that late hour
to make an appeal for the pardon of
and erring son, who had been confined
in the penitentiary for seven years,
and who had three more to stay.
.What is the name of your son ~ ask
ed the Governor. The old man gave
it. Governor Moves then, without
making him any definite reply, re-
quested him to step into his private
room and wait until he was at leisure.
The fact was, the pardon had been
granted early that morning, and the
old mans daughter had already gone
to carry the pardon to her brother,
and accompany him from the peniten-
tiaiv to the Governors Office. In q
few moments the liberated man arriV-
ed with his sister, neither expecting
to find the father there, aud the father
not dreaming that the pardon had all
ready been granted. One can readily
imagine the scene as the Governor
conducted the two to his private room.
The son few to his father and embrace
ed him, and then finging his arms
around the Governors neck, covered
his face with kisses. The old man,
overcome by the great happiness of
the moment, sank into his chair, sob
bing like child. There we're no dry
eyes in that room, and those who, a
few minutes later, were talking and
chatting with the retiring Governor
in the reception-r0om, little Imagined
in what a touchingly pathetic scene
he had been participant. The eliber-
aied man has wife, aud child eight
years old, sister, and aged parents.
1t will be pleasant reflection during
his lifetime 10 General Noyes1 that it
was one of tho last acts of his execu-
tive power to fill one household. with
the sunshine of happiness, and restore
the beloved one long separated from
them who had fearfully condoned for
his crime. ~

How .zleKnp ! rogseIeLnL oAs be.

Last spring young girl named Col
Inns excited a great sensation in this
city by5hei. declaration that she had
been visited by the Virgin, and by
the appearance upon her hands, feet,
side and head, of the stigmata, or
marks of the cruciffxion. The story
is briefly thus: Miss Collins, who
had been educated at the convent of
Nortre Dame, in San Jose, seemed OF
a deeply religious disposition. and,
with a coinpaHion, Miss Amer, en-
tered upon q life of religion and char
Iiity, having left her fathers house, and
with Miss Amer, rented a house
where they Instructed little children.
relieved the sick, &c. In january last
she was taken violently i'll, and after
some days. sickness was apparently
about TO die, when she went into what
seemed to be swoou, and recovered
perfectly well, dec airing that she was
cured. She stated that the blessed
Virgin had come to her during her
swoon, expressed approval of her
life and told her what to do. Some
time inter this she began to complain
of pain in her temples and in her
hands, and on the Friday before Good
Friday--the Feast of the Seven Doiors
---the stigmata became clearly visible
in bloody spots on the hands, feet side
and temples. On Good Friday she
seemed 10 suffer intense agony, and
the stigtnata was again more clearly
visible. Quite number of respecta-
BILE people were convinced that it was
in reality a miracle, and the case,
which was first made public in the
Posi- gave rise to great deal of dis
cassioh. The Archbishop and other
authorities OF the Catholic Church,
carefully abstained from SAYING
whether they believed it TO be a real
case of stigmata or not; but a large
portion of the community believed in
III, while another portion scofFed al ii
as being ridiculous aud preposterous.
After great deal had been said and
written In the case, Miss Collins and
her friend, Miss Amer, dropped out
of sight We now learn that they
wnre sent, by order of the Archbish-
op, to the house of the Sisters of Char
lity, Mount st. Joseph. There Miss
Collins was put Under the medical
charge of DIR. ShOrb, and was CAREFUL
~ watched night and day, not being
suffered TO pass q moment unobserved.
This close scrutiny at last developed
the fact that she herself was the an-
thor OF her stigrnata, which she pro
dueed by pricking her hands, &c, with
her nails. The moment this was dis
covered she was treated as an impos-
tress, which she really is, and had
off somewhere, the Archbishop says
he knows not where. AS we under
stand it, no suspicion attaches to Miss
Amer, her companion, though it seems
impossible that she should have been
deluded by such transparent trick of
her close associate. Miss Amer her
self has entered convent. So ends
the reputed miracle. 1t is creditable
to the Catholic officials that they
did not except the girls story, but put
her to the vigorous examination that
detected its falsehood.-San Francis
co Post.

ABSOLUTELY pure Iron is said to
have been prepared by Russian
chemist by means of the galvanic bat
terry During the process a large
quantity OF hydrogen was disengaged
from the ordinary iron used. The
pure iron is a silver white metal, very
malleable and ductile, and so soft as
to be readily cut with a pair of scis-
sors. 1t oxldizes rapidly, and water is
decomposed by it with rapid absorp-
ton OF oxygen.

times carried as much as 10000 boxes
of glass now have no more than l,OOO
boxes in stock. This deadlock, as we
have frequently stated, is caused by the
