marks by Rev. Mess-s. LeLacheur, Peckham,
Emmons and Moody; also brief remarks by
Messrs. johnson. True, Rowell aud others. inter-
'persed with singing by the congregation. Good
attention was given to the entire services, and an
encouraging number signed their names TO the
pledge.
We learn that committees from four churches in
this city held q consultation on Monday last, and
came to the unanimous decision that is was advis
BILE to secure the services of evangelist to aid
in the progress of the religious interest that has
been gradually developing for the past few weeks.
Negotiations are already in progress for attaining
the result desired.
We take pleasure in calling attention TO the adj

The Eastern Question.

LONDON, March ~. A Vienna despatch sayi
II lgnatiefs mission is to obtain unconditional
neutrality, he will probably be unsuccessful. In
case OF war, Austria could not be an Indifferent
armament, with England, seeks to renew the
triple alliance, the latter may he possible.
Vienna special reports the most of the pa
pers agree that the negotiations relative to the

Denial.
j. Z. benjamin denies that Oakley Hall was to
form partnership in law with him in this city.
The Madrid Correspondent is authorized to
deny the reported marriage of King Alfonso with
Due De Montpensicr's daughter.
Swiss Exports.
\ despatch from Paris says that the Commits
soner General of Switzerland at the late centen-
NAL exhibition at Philadelphia, in his report to
the Federal Council, states that the decline in
Swiss exports to America is not due to the COM
mercial crisis there, but to the development OF
native industry. and that Switzerland will never
regain her own level. England also is competing
more actively with Switzerland, to compensate
for the loss in other markets. Cotton fabrics are
likely to cross the Atlantic to Europe in increas-
ing quantities, far water power is cheaper than
coal Short hours and high wages have disap-
peared and Americans, it may be fol eseen, will
compete with Europe. Even in China and Japan,
Switzerland must also be prepared for warmer
being likely to try and make up on the continent
for the decline in her machine exports to the
United States.

rifles, but are badly drilled.
Religious.
A Paris despatch considerably modfes the &C.
count given by the clerical journals of the reply
made by the Duke De Cazes to the Catholic SEN
ators and deputies, concerning papacy. 1t says
the Catholics gave notice to the duke that they
intended to submit formal Interpolation asking
what measures the government had taken for pro,
lection of the liberty of the pope. DE Cazes dis
suaded them from introducing an Interpolation,
representing it was necessary TO maintain good
relations with Italy and not aggravste the pr
foreign situation. Everything in connection with
the popes spiral authority was an object of solicit
tude TO France, but the clerical abuses of the law
to which their questions particularly referred was
purely question of internal policy.

New Disc Overies.

New Disc Overies.
This is q day of wonderful discoveries, not only
in the arts and sciences but in whatever direction
the scrutinizing mind is turned, new objects are
brought to view. Within the past few years valu-
able minerals have been discovered in various
parts of this State; also several springs Of water
containing great medicinal properties. Among
the last, though not the least, is one at South Po-
land, about $50 rods in southerly direction from
the spring ofthe Messrs. Rickers. This new spring
entirely unknown until about the first of Sept.
1876, and was discovered by accident; is on the
farm of MIR. John Colony, and near his house
Previous to this discovery, there had been four
wells dug near the house, without obtaining un-
failing water. The purity Of this water led some
of Mr. Colomy's neighbors to use it instead of the
water OF the so-caled Kicker spring, and finding
it had better effect on them, advised Mr.. Colony
to have it analysed and see what its medicinal
properties were. Finally friend of Mr.. Colony s
finding it was doing so much good, carried some
of the water to Portland to State Assayer, Bart
lett, who after extended paysis declared it to
contain more medicinal qualities than the celebrat-
ed Poland spring. Mr.. Colony has put stone
curb in the we'll feet square and 2 feet deep. He
has sent several barrels of the water to Boston,
some of which has been analysed, and prominent
gentlemen Of that city have been to the spring to
negotiate with the proprietor for the agency of
Boston, saying it far exceeds the water Of the
Kicker spring in medicinal quality, and if they
can obtain the agency will utilize the water. The
result of the anaysis of this water shows q great
per centage of Carbonic acid, which is not found
in any water in this region, giving it greater
