The following il . condensed review Of af
fairs in Maine: Jan 18th. Wilson, Fusionist
from Orono, applies for admission to the Leg
islature and 10 refused. Senator Strickland
also refused by Mayor Nash. The President
Of the Fusion Senate and the Speaker Of the
Fusion House next attempted to get in and
we're refused. Governor Smith then attempt
ed to walk into the Capitol and was pa. out
by order Of Governor Davis. The Fusionists
then held . session ON the sidewalk and de-
elarsd themselves . legal body. After ad-
journment an indignation meeting was hold
in front Of the Augusta House. Great excite
msnt prevailed.
seems AT TIE STATE lousR.
The scenes inside the State House during
the afternoon were extraordinary. The gran
its structure resembles fsudal castle await
ing an attack. In every >pAasageway, from
the sabterranean regions up to the roof, were
policemen armed with REVIEWERS. Policemen
challenged the steps of the exceedingly few
persons who had by special favor gained ad-
nittancs A double guard protected the
Governors room. The spacious rotunda be-
low swarned with men. and when any one
succeeded in getting past the guards at the
steps he was not admitted to the State House
without scrunity from vigilant ssntries, who
tended the carefully locked doors. The
younger guardsmen on duty did not hesitate
to show their revolvsrs, and were anticipating
. hot contest with tho Fusonist forces. whom
they believed were about to arrive by railroad.
A special force of 100 or more men was de-
tailed to stand guard on the balcony fronting
State street. Just before the arrival of the
Fusion Legislature on the sidewalk below this
balcony, the force was ordered into the hall
Of the House, where they where drawn up in
military order and divided into squads Gen
eral Charles Hattucks, of Portland, was in
command Of this contingent, and he appoint
cd Major A. Benson, of Portland, Adjutant
When the guard was about to move out to the
to break step, fearing that the measured tread
of 80 many men would be heard BY the
Fusionists on the sidewalk thirty feet distant
So, when the men went cut, they broke step
and sa ccesded in making NO unnecessary noise
They were all armed with rsvolvsrs, anG from
their elevated point ON the lofty balcony could
have guarded the steps leading to the State
House against a force of 5000 men.

WHAT EVICTION MEANS IN IRELAND.

1t is impossible to understand the Irish land
question of to-day without knowing what that
threatened g. eviction which hangs like the
sword of Danocles over the head of every
Irish tenant, means. The following is a mar
rative of one of those narrowing scenes, which
occurred but few years since in the County
Meath. related by the Most Rev. DR. Nc
Nulty:
Seven hundred human beings were driven
from their homes ON this one day. The Sher-
ifs assistants employed Oh this occasion to
extinguish the hearths and demolish the homes
of these honest, industrious men, worked away
with will at their awful calling until evening
fell At length al incident occurred that va
risd the monotony of the grim and CHASTITY
ruin which they were spreading around They
stopped suddenly and recoiled, panic stricken
with terror, from two dwellings which they
we're to destrow with the rest. They had just
learned that typhus fever held these houses
IN its grasp, and had already brought death to
some of their inmates. They therefore sup
plieated the agent to spare these houses a lit
tie longer, but he was int xorable, All d insisted
that they should be torn down. He OF dered
= large winnowing sheet to be placed over
directed the houses to be unroofed cautiously
and slowly.
The waiing of women, the screams, the
terror, the Consideration of children, the
agony of the men. wrung tears of grief from
all who saw them. / saw the officers and
men of the police force who we're present, cry
like eeildren. The heavy rains that attend
the autumnul eexinoves descended in cold
torrents throughout the awful night, reveal
ing to the houseless sufferers the awful reality
of their condition The landed proprietsrs
for many miles In every direction, warned
their tenants against admitting them to even
nights shelter. Many of these poor people
were too poor to emigrate After battling in
vain with privation and pestience, they at last
graduated from the work-house to the tomb,
aud in three years nearly a fourth Of them lay
quietly in their graves.

The Sch0Olmaster In Germany,

The reports of our school inspectors
often reveal very remarkable state of
things in our schools and among our
teachers, but, thank Heaven, they show
nothing SO bad as the report of an ex-
animation OF German candidates for the
schoolmaster's certificate, which we have
just read. One candidate, on being
asked what countryman Jesus was, re-
piled that he was an Italian. Another.
on being shown stuffed squirrel and
asked to name it, succeeded in doing SO.
but on being further asked what sort of
a squirrel it was, guessed that it was
stuffed one. Where" continued the
examiner, is this species Of squirrel to
be found ?" "In the dealers window.
was the reply. "What is this ?" asked
the professor, showing another candi-
date butterfly. "That is
butterfly, SIR" "No doubt, but
what kind of butterfly" "Mein Gott!"
them in our parts that we never pay any
attention to them." cit is now 4o'clock
here" remarked the examiner to can
didate for honors in geography, "what
time is it in London % swell. it must
De quite as late there, was the reply.
How many square miles does the north
pole Govern" was another question, to
which came the answer: NO one
knows. A great number of people have
tried to go there, but not one has sue
ceeded in the attempt" "How do you
teach children the difference between
the right and left bank of river ?"
" I don't teach them that, because there
is no river in our parts" Another can
didate was shown skeleton map and
asked to name q particular mountain,
but he observed the map was a bad one.
as the names we're not marked on it like
the one at home, which was far superior.
Why did the companions of Columbus
refuse to 60 further ?" was another ques-
ton. because" replied the candidate,
"they had come to the spot where the
ship would have tipped over, for you
know, sir, the earth is round" These
examples will suffice to prove that. if the
schoolmaster is generally abroad in Ger
many, the candidates for that title are
not seldom at sea.-Maechester (Eno.)

Effect of Tea on the Skin.

If you place few drops of strong tea
upon piece Of iron, knife blade. for
instance, the tannate of iron is formed.
which is black. If you mix tea with iron
filings, or pulverized iron, you can make
a fair article Of ink. If you mix it with
fresh human blood, it forms with the
iron Of the blood the tannate of iron.
Take human skin and let it soak for q.
time in strong tea, and it will become
leather. Now, when we remember that
the liquids which enter the stomach are
rapidly absorbed by the venous absor-
bents Of the stomach, and enter into the
circulation and are thrownout of the sys-
tenn by the skin, lungs, and kidneys. it is
probable that drink so common as tea.
and SO abundantly used, will have some
effect Can it be possible that tannin. in
troduced with so much liquid-producing
respiration, will have no effect upon the
skin Look at the tea-drinkers of Rus
STA, the Chinese, and the old women of
America, who have go long continued
the habit of drinking strong tea. Are
they not dark-colored and leather
skinned?

The world. renowned swimmer, Capt
Paul Boyton, in an interview with .
newspaper correspondent at the eeashore
related the following incidents IN his ex.
perience:
Reporter "Capta1n Boyton, you must
have seen large part of the worldF'
Capt. Boyton.-"Yes sir, by the aid of
my Rubber Life Saving Dress, have
travelled over 10000 miles on the rivers
of America and Europe; have also been
presented to the crowned heads Of Eng
land, France: Germany, Austria, Bc]gl-
UNI, Italy, Holland, Spain and Portugal,
and have In my possession forty.two
medals and decorat,ons; I have three
times received the order of knighthood,
and been elected honorary member Of
committees, clubs, orders and societies. .
Reporter.-"Werc your various trips
accompanied by much dangers''
Capt. Boyton.-''That depends upon
what you may call dangerous. During
my trip down the river 'Tagus In Spain,
I had to "shoot" one hundred and two
waterfalls, the highest being about eigh-
ty-tive feet, and innumerable rapids.
Crossing the Straits of Messina, had
three ribs broken in q fight with sharks;
and c"ming down the Somane, river in
France, I received charge of shot from
an excited and startled huntsman. Al
though all this was not very pleasant,
and might TO termed dangerous, fear
nothing more on my trip than intense
cold; for, as long a. my limbs are free
and easy, and not cranped or benumbed,
I am all night. Of late I carry stock of
St. Jacobs Oil m my little boat,-(the
Captain calls it "Baby Mine,' and has
stored therein signal rockets, thermome-
ter, compass, provisions, etc.)-and I
have had but little trouble. Before start
ing out I rub myself thoroughly with
the article, and it's action on the muscles
is wonderful. From constant exposure I
am somewhat subject to rheumatic pains,
and nothing would ever benefit me, Until
l got hold of this Great German Remedy.
Why, on my travels I have met people
who had been suffering with Rheumatism
for years; by my advice they tried the
Oil, and it cured them. would sooner
do without food for days than be without
this remedy for one hour. In fact I
would not attempt q trip without it,"
The Captain became very enthusiastic
on tho subject of st. Jacobs Oil, and We
left him, citing instances of the curative
qualities of the Great German Remedy
to q party around him.

Diamond Maxim.

make diamonds will beat least until
they have been made-an interesting
subject to the majority of men. The late
effort Of James Mactear, Of Glasgow, to
produce diamonds artlRcially is by no
means the first that has been made. The
earliest experiments of any importance
were. recent, however fifty-two
years since. Latour and Gannall, the
French chemists, then presented pure
pieces OF crystaiized carbon to the acad-
envy of sciences, and caused thereby great
excitement, supposing that the secret OF
making diamonds had been discovered.
The result proved that the small CRYSTALS,
although transparent. brilliant and hard
er than quartz, would neither scintillate
nor refract rays of light sufficiently to
render them valuable. Notwithstanding
that they are composed of the same ma
terial AZ diamonds, they had little beau
ty. They were submitted to the heat
test, as Mactear's crystals were, but, like
his, they underwent no perceptible
change. Champigny, director of the GEL
ebrated diamond firm in Paris,
pronounced them genuine; where
upon followed the great diamond
panic (1828), which affected the whole
commercial world. A few years later,
the French savant, Despretz, again start
led the world by announcing that he had
produced artificial diamonds. HIS
method was to fix cylinder of pure car
bon to- the positive pole of weak Dan
iell pie, and a platinum wire to the neg
alive pole, and then to plunge both poles
into calculated water. In two months
the negative pole was covered with a
black coating, which was sent to Haudln
(Marc Antoine) to Ike tested on hard
etones. Mixed with q little oil, the black
particles would polish rubies, and as the
diamond alone will do this, Gaud.n did
not hesitate to declare the particles dia-
mend DUST, q conclusion generally &C
cepted at the time by men of science.
The question, "Can diamonds be made
altificiallyT' is still open, and many
chemists feel sure that ere long 1t will
be answered in the affirmative BY exper-
iments absolutely successful. They have
already been produced in material,
though not in properties. It is thought
that these may be obtained by cutting
the crystals differently from what they
are now cut.
Such discovery would not be more
remarkable than the discovery made by
Enguiner (1456) in producing facets, and
perfected by Coster in making planes on
the Koh-l.noor. The effect OF SUCH dis
covery may be conjecturcd by reference
to tho diamond panic of 1928. It would
revolutionize value, and create a prodigi-
GUS commotion IN both hemispheres: but
the commotlon would abate in due time.
and good would PROFESSIONALLY result.
The value OF all diamonds in royal treas
uries, in mercantile, titled and private
hands, and elsewhere, is stupendous. 1t
has been estimated at five billions, or &C.
cording to the French Enumeration, S.
OOO,O00,000. To destroy capital to that
amount would upset for time the whole
worlds commerce, were the capital &C.
tive. But the capital locked up in dia.
monds is wholly dormant.
