EdiSon's New Electric Light.

New YORK, Dec. 21.-The Herald de-
votes page to Edison's triumph in electric
Illumination, giving full and accurate ac-
count Of his work from its inception to it's
completion, with Illustrative diagrams. The
Herald says:
The first public exhibition of Edison's
long-lO0ked for electric light takes place New
Years evening at MenlO Park, Oh which oc-
casiOn that place will be illuminated with
the new light. The new light, incredible as
ii may appear. is produced IRON little piece
OF paper-a tiny strip Of paper that a breath
would blow away. Through this little strip
of paper is passed an electric current, and
the result is bright, beautiful, mellow
light. But the paper instantly burns even
under the tritling heat of "a tallow candle,"
eXclaimS the skeptic, "and how, then, can it
withstand the fierce heat of an electric cur
rent!' Very true. But Edison makes the
little piece OF paper more lnfusible than
platinum, more durable than granite, and
this involves no complicated process. The
paper Is merely baked in an oven until its
elements have passed away, except its car
bon frame work. The latter is placed in a
glass globe connected with wires leading to
an electricity producing machine and
the air exhausted from the globe. Then
the apparatus is ready to give out
light that produces no deieteriOus gases, no
flame, without danger, requiring no matches
to ignite, giving out but little heat, vi,iatlng
no air and free from all flickering-a light
that is little globe of sunshine, and this
light the inventor claims can be produced
cheaper than that from the cheapest oil.
The inventor finds that the electricity can be
regulated with entire reliability at a central
station just as the pressure Of gas is now
regulated. The entire cost of constructing
the lamp is not more than % cents.

The steamer Borussia, which left
Liverpool, Nov. 20, for New Orleans,
with 234 persons on board, passengers,
officers and crew, met with very severe
weather soon after leaving port and
sprang aleak SO badly that on the I'd of
December, when about $50 miles
southwest of Fayal, it was found
necessary to abandon her. The
larger portion of the passen-
gers with number of the crew were
placed in boats and upon RATS, and of
these only one boatful, nine in all, had
been heard from. These were picked
up and landed at Queenstown, Dec.
20. 1t is their opinion that all
the rest of the passengers and crew
have been lost. The Captain and most
of the crew remained with the vessel,
which is believed to have gone down on
the same night the boats left, as her
lights suddenly disappeared from their
view.

CURRENT TOPICS.

GOVERNOR Garcelon of Maine has
published defense of the action of the
State Executive and Council in their
official capacity as final canyassers of
the vote of the State, by which a number
of Republicans apparently chosen by
the popular vote have been counted out
on account of alleged informali-
ties and irregularities and the
opposition candidates declared elect
ed. The pith of the Governors
explanation is that the result was OBJ
tanned by a strict observance OF the
provisions of the Constitution and the
statutes governing the case, and that in
refusing 20 permit the substitution
alteration or unauthorized amend
ments of the returns trans
mitted to the Legislature for their
final action" they were fortified by the
opinions of the Supreme Court and
other competent legal authorities.
The Fusionists held public meet
ing at Augusta, on the night of the 23d,
at which speeches were made indorsing
the action of the Governor as being
thoroughly in accordance with the law
and Constitution of the State. Resolu
tons expressive of these views were
adopted. Gov. Garcelon made speech
asking that himself and colleagues be
sustained in the action they had
taken. He said in conclusion: 81 ask
you to be prudent in act and speech;
but if the time comes when the laws
have to be maintained against the at
tacks of a mob, 1 want you to be ready
to take up arms in their defense. The
Constitution and laws of Maine must
and shall be preserved"
There was great excitement at Ban
gor, Me-, on Christmas Day, caused by
the attempted removal of arms and am
munition from the State Arsenal in that
city to Augusta, the Capital, by order of
Governor Garcelon. Two drays, loaded
with war material, were stopped by
the crowd on the way to the railroad de-
pot and the drivers compelled to return
to the Arsenal.

to suppose that if the garments which
receive and absorb them are kept on the
body these vapors will be again alb
sorbed, with poisonous results? But if
one is accustomed to complete change
the day and night garments, and
neatly folds and lays them in the ward
robe, closing doors and windows to ex-
clude dust and flies, or, as is often done,
put the night attire under the pillow of
the owner, " hat has been done to pre-
vent injury to the health? Nothing. Is
it any great trouble, on retiring, to
hang the garments, as they are put off,

take five minutes extra time. Leave
the party, the ball, or social converse by
the tireside five minutes earlier, if too
tired to attend to this duty properly.
And in the morning don't be late to
breakfast-that's bad; but even that
departure from good breeding is less
reprehensible than to throw the night
clothes in heap, leave the bed unaired
and the windows unopened. Rise five
minutes earlier if need be; hang up the
night-clothes where they will have the
full benefit of the pure, fresh air; raise
the windows; throw off the bedclothes,

ARRANGEMENTS for the County Fair.

The Board of Directors Of the County
Agricultural Society, met on Monday last,
there being present A. A. oproule, Presi-
dent; JAS FL. Waters Secretary. and Direc-
tors W. L. Bumgardner, A. W. Hartman,
John D. Crowle. j l.. Peyton, G. B. Col
ner, Jas. Henderson and A. M. Bowman.
Several important changes were made in
the premium list. Mr.. e. Julian Pratt
appeared as Chairman of "a committee
appointed by the Augusta Wool Grow
ers' Association and represented their
desires in respect to the premiums for
sheep. The Board after hearing hip and
discussing the matter, altered the pre-
miums so as to make the aggregate amount
offered 1920 instead of SIT which was the
aggregate of sheep premiums last year.
Changes were als) made in the cattle pre-
MUM list which will spread the premiums
more generally. The special premiums IN
the shape of silver plate we've also abol-
lshed, except that for the ladies' riding
match. 1t was also determined to dimin-
ISL, premiums for trotting races.
The Board after consideration material
ly advanced the date of the exhibition fix
ing it to commence on Tuesday, October
5th and close on Friday, October 9Th. This
change from former dates was deemed ad-
visable as it escapes the days fixed on by
other societies at which many of the Au-
gusta exhibitors also carry their stock.
The long standing negotiation between the
City and the Society for certain water
rights was again up and the Board fixed
its price and appointed Messrs. J. L. Pey-
ton and J. H. Waters to inform the Coun :
Gil. Mr. J. Alex. Bumgardner was ap-
pointed Chief Marshal for the fall exhibit
ton and Messrs. S. F. Pilson and G. A.
! Mowry Assistant Marshals. J. T. Parent
was appointed Chief of Police.
The following is the race programme !:
Tuesdays running race-A premium of
| S25. 90. horses to enSer, Q to start. open
| to all. $500 to first $1,000 to SECOND.
Wednesdays trottiDg race-A premium
| of $50 or $40 to first, $50 to second. for
! trotters raised or owned in county six
months previous to October LIST, 1874 or
more to enter, TO start-mile heats-best
| 8 in 5. 49,,
The English riding csul will have race
every day. aud Messrs Bumgardner and

races Thursday and Friday, and $500 is
appropriated for those two days.
