discovery in medical science to have invented rem

the results produced by heretofore free use of cao
mel, mineral justly dreaded by mankind, and &C
knowedged to be destructive in the extreme to the
human system. That the properties of certain vege-

LECTURE THIS EvENING.-This evening Mr..
Marshall will give his lecture upon the wonders
of the National Park. The Boston Advertiser
in speaking of this lecture as it was given last
November says:
Notwithstanding storm and mud and election
excitement the hall of The Art club was filled
to OVERLOOKING on Saturday evening with Gull
tlvated and critical audience to hear Professor
William |. Marshalrs illustrated lecture on our
marvellous national park, which has been SO
appropriately called the wonderland of the
world. The warm Communications bestowed on
the lecture and its illustrations by Garrison and
Mrs. Livermcre and q. +. Adams and Bryant
and Beecher and barley and Barry and Holmes
and Guyot and e. e, Hale and Dom Pedro had
raised the expectations of the audience to a
great height, but, judging by their enthusiastic
applause of lecturer and illustrations and theii
close attention and especially by their COM
ments after the entertainment was over, it was
plain that their highest anticlpations were folly
realized.

PLUCKY MAINE CAPTAIN.-The schooner
Frank Atwood, just arrived at New York from
Mayaguez, Porto Rice, brings Intelligence of
the American schooner Barscoa, Capt. Nc
Clintock, of Bootby, previously reported seized
by the Spanish authorities at Ponce. The Ba-
racoa, it will be remembered, was libelled, and
fine of $4,000 Spanish gold imposed upon her
for an alleged but not proven discrepancy be.
tween her cargo and manifest. This was in
October last, and the matter went into court as
charge OF smuggling, but no evidence was adj
duced in support of the accusations. Captain
McClintock, after unavailing efforts to bring
the matter to a reasonable compromise, de-
manded his papers and the protection of the
American Consul. He was told by that official
that his papers would not be given up until he
exhibited a clearance from the authorities,
which they of course refused pending the nom
payment of the fine. Finding 1t impossible to
obtain the documents. Capt. McClintock quiet
ly made his preparations and on the evening
of November % slipped past the castle with
land wind. His departure was not noticed I'M
til morning, when Spanish gunboat was Or
dered in pursuit of him. After an unsuccecss-
full chase of several days she returned to Maya
guez. When next heard of the Baracoa will
no doubt be reported safe in some home port.

Portland Provident Association

The necessities of the poor IN our midst are
very great and perhaps there has not been
time IN the history of this society when the
calls upon it have been so imperative as the
present. The good people of this city may well
have confidence that this association will judi
ciously dsburse all funds com nitted to it, but
it has not the means to meet 1.-THE of the
claims of real want.
There is one way CT granting relief and COM
fort to the destitute, which will cost but little
sacrifice and can be awaited of by almost every
one who IS above want. This is by contribut-
ing TO this association, cast off wearing apparel
of every kind. More than $500 articles were
distributed last winter and double that amount
could be usefully bestowed during the cherries
winter before US. 1T is earnestly hoped that a
liberal response will be made to this appeal,
which this association is constrained to make
in view of the suffering and destitute, con-
stantly brought to its notice,
All donations can be sent to the Office in the
basement of the City Building, or notice NAV
be sent by postal card to Col. j. r. Thompson,
general agent. who will take charge of them.
