AN OPIUM FAMINE.-During the recent stay in
this port of the P. NJ. s. s. Alaska, some of the
Chinese passengers called at the Custom House and
inquired for opium, having been told that perhaps
there was some remaining there from former seiz-
ures. But it appeared that this had all been sent to
California to be sold. There was, however, re-
naming at the Custom House two tins. containing
what may be called-refuse opium, being the ashes
and dregs remaining of the drug that has been
smoked. There was also two small tins containing
q little of the drug in a hard. baked condition, the
whole being the property Of q Chinese merchant
here, who did not consider the lot worth looking
after. But there was an opium famine among the
Chinese on the Alaska, owing to their supplies hav-
ing given out during her unexpected long voyage,
and some of the victims of the habit were really sick
for the loss of the accustomed stimulant. They de-
clared that they could not purchase a particle of
opium in the city of Honolulu, and they gladly paid
the sum of $50 for the lot of refuse in the Custom
House. They would doubtless have paid 500 had
it been demanded. The foregoing facts would indi-
cate either that opium is very scarce here now, or
else that those having it-in possession are remark
ably cautious.
LIBRARY AND READING RooM.-The- officers of the

express, through our columns, their thanks for the

time if parties, having books to give, will be kind
enough to send them in promptly. At n special
business meeting On Saturday evening last, the
question of applying for a Charter for the Institu-
ton came up for hearing, and was decided in the
irmative by a nearly unanimous vote. Mr.. Hart

Gov. Kellogg presented list Of
witness he desired summoned for tom orrow.
Senator Hill stated that as the sitting member
had already summoned more than twice as
many az the contestant. and the means of the
committee were limited, he should decline to
subpoena any unless the facts
they were expected to prove
were stated. Senator Cameron rejoined that
be had desired this rule adopted in the first
instance, but the chairman had overruled him.
Senator Hill said he was sorry he had done so,
but now, Senator Cameron concurring, he
would declare that to be the order of
committee. In somewhat heated

the chairman, Kellogg stated that so far his
witnesses had occupied the time of the CON-
mittee but one day, and if the committee did
not subpoena the witnesses he asked for he
would bring them to Washington at his own
expense, and have them examined before the
whole committee.

LIVELY DEMAND FOR RIFLES.

LONDON, Nov. 25.-A dispatch from the
Dublin Times says. while the Irish agitstors
tell the public that they are engaged in legal
and constitutional agitation. and ostensibly adj
wise people to keep within the law. the country
abounds with evidence that different inter.
probation has been put upon theil language.
Threatening notes and acts of violence arc
practical comments upon their words. There
are evil omens for tho winter, which are begin.
ming to be felt. A correspondent of the Times
calls attention to the brisk trade doing at Irish
fairs in old government rifles; l25 rifles were
sold in the district of Dungannon in one week
at about seven shillings each.

EXCITEMENT UNDATED.
DUBLIN, Nov. 25.-The excitement through
the west of Ireland shows no sign of abate.
ment. La'ge meetings are being held In all
popuious places in the counties Of Mayo and
Sligo. Parnell, in addressing large meeting
last night in Sligo, asked the people to perse-
we're in the agitation and to remember his adj
vice, keep firm. Great crowds assembled in the
streets Of Sligo to-day. The examination of
Davitt is proceeding. There is some fear of
riot, municipal elections are being held and
the mayor is very unpopular. One hundred
and twenty soldiers are under arms in the bar
racks and one hundred additional police are in
readiness. All the western districts arc being
strongly garrisoned.
DAvIrT's TRIAL.
S11ao Nov. 25.-The court to-day was again
crowded with spectators. Killen and Davitt
appeared perfectly cheerful and fresh. Mon
roc, queens counsel. said If he could prove
the utterance of Davitt's alleged words that,
the manhood of Ireland should spring to its
feet and say it would tolerate landlords and
landlordism no longer, the magistrates would
be bound to commit him. Police evidence
was called to prove this utterance. Davitt,
who had been occupied all the morning pre-
pairing written defeuse, befure commencing
to deliver it, protested against Monroe re-
mark that he had already experienced the
clemency of the crown, and declared that he
was innocent Of the charge of which he was
convicted in 1870. Daily, since his release from
Jail, complains Of bis treatment while in
prison. Monroe, in the course of his remarks,
said that Davitt is probably the most danger
Gus of the Irish agitators, and especially point
ed to his language comparing the Zulu assegai
to the Irish pike. Davitt then began CROSS
examining the witnesses.
Davitt declared he had been convicted of
Fenianism in England on the evidence of a
professional perjurer: His cross-examination
Of police witnesses failed to weaken the evil
dence against him, and he was committed for
trial, bail being accepted.
Davitt's bail has been fixed at an amount
the same as Daly's, ESQ., with two sureties in
ESQ each.

BosToN, Nov. 25.-Announcement is made of
the policy of the Roman Catholic church in
New England towards the public schools. The,
archbishop, following the advice of the pope
to a European bishop has directed all the
priests in the archdiocese of New England to at
once establish parochial schools, and threatens
parents who refuse to patronize them with the
terrors of the church in localities where the
influence of public schools is thought to be
particularly injurious to Catholic youth. The
priests are instructed to withdraw children ut
once, even if there be no parochial schools in
the vicinity.
