tacles from his nose, and holding them

tired tramps, who are glad to 60 early to

The question of notifying the Senate of

The onl, way to allay the great excitement
prevailing is to admit these members, who
are clearly elected according to the expressed
decision of the supreme court. This course
will alone propitiate the people of Maine.
He moved that the House go into committee

The house refused to go into committee

Mr.. Dlckey remarked the supreme court
had nothing to do with the action of the

Hale defending the court, and asking that
constitutional barriers be not swept away.
He said that the action of officers, under
laws passed by this body, as now constituted,
would not be legal. At 3 o'clock the house

AGo-as-Yeu Please Game.

"A uU.de. lou CAodSC Ud"Cs
The amount of pure oussedness that may
sometimes be developed from the perversity
of couple of shiftless plugs was fully dem
onstrated in this city yesterday morning by
one of the liveliest runaways that has ever
taken place in this city. About $50 O'Clock
a team of horses attached to new draught
wagon belonging to plasterer named Mess
niger, became frightened in the vicinity of
the post office on Wabashaw street. The
team hustled out Wabashaw to Fifth street
and started at a go-as-y ou-please gait down
that thoroughfare.
The music commenced as soon as they
struck Fifth street, which was signalized by
a collision with Kings express wagon, the
tail board of which was sent kiting skyward,
while the rate of the runaway incre ased to a
100 pound pressure. The next episode took
place near the corner of Fifth and Mime
sofa streets, where the pesky animals COL
lided with cutter belonging to Mr.. Dugan,
the shock almost amounting to complete
paralysis to tho cutter. Proceeding down
Fifth street they tackled wagon belonging
to the N. w. Fuel company which was
standing near the corner of Fifth and Wa
cOuta streets. {.
The collision at this point was simply ter
rife. The wood wagon was shattered to the
consistency of tooth-picks and the driver of
the team prevented another serious runaway
by the utmost nerve and good fortune.
Shortly after this the demoralized rig en-
countered rock pile, which was too much
for them. The wagon, or what was left of
that vehicle, succumed to the shock a total
wreck, while the animals came to a period
from sheey'exhaustion.

For Re -Election-Rumor that Little

AUGUSTA, Me-, Jan. Tho large crowd
began to make its way into the
State house as early as 8
O'Clock this forenoon. The police al
the capitol were without badges and had no
appearance of bearing arms. There was a
perfect jam in the corridors and halls and
stai1ways, and it was with great difficulty
that those allowed to enter the legislative
halls pushed their way thither. There were
very many vacant seats in the house, as the
Republicans carried out their programme
and kept away, few only moving about in
the rear of the hall. No disturbance what
ever.
SELECTING SEATS.
At S:45 o'clock the assistant clerk of the
House, w. E. Gibbs, called the roll for selec-
ton of seats. The Republicans did not re-
spond to their names, neither did the Fusion
lists, who have been reported as non-affilia-
ting. AS a quorum was conceded in the
Senate, public interest was attracted to pro-
ceedings in the house, the galleries of which

their positions for personal gain rather than
for the public good, while Mrs. Gen. Gilfiory

of shoddy gentility, affecting the airs of
fashionable and intelligent society without
possessing the education necessary to keep
them from tho domain of the ridiculous.
Throughout it is immensely grotesque and
laughable, and the audience was kept in a
constant roar of laughter, now at the assump-
tons and oddities of the Hon. Slote, and
again at the affectations of Mrs. Gen. Gil

MIR. Hale claimed that certain elected
members of the house from cities were not
on the ROLL and moved that they be includ-
ed. He supported his motion in long
speech.
REPUBLICANS WITHDRAW.
Objections were made to the motion from
the other side, and Hale was ruled out of
order by the assistant clerk, who refused to
put the motion, on which the Republicans
withdrew from participating in the pro-
ceedings.
A message was then sent to the governor

bers of the House was present and ready to
be qualified. Great excitement prevailed
during Hale's remarks, and uproarious ap-

FallacieS of the Learned.

Seneca, Claudian, Basil, Augustine,
Gregory, Jerome, and perhaps Thucy-
dldes, agreed in the belief that crystal is
simply ice strongly CONCEALED and such
men as Scaliger, Albertus Magnus, and
Brassavolus assented to the proposition.
1t is, however, but fair to say that there
were always opponents to this theory.
Pllny denied the assertion, and in his
company we find Agricola, Dioderus
Siculus, Cesius Bernardus, and others.
OF course, the test Of specific gravity
settles the matter at once. AS for
astronomical and geographical fallacies,
their name is legion. Xenophanes as
serted that the earth had no bottom );
Ihales M1leslus averred that it foated
on water, and almost every old writer
has his own pet craze about the problem.
A glimpse at the monkish map Of the
world which is still preserved in Here
ford Cathedral will prove the unsyste-
matte nature Of the Typographical studies
In much later days; but such errors are
too numerous to be more than briefly
limited at, and fallacies respecting crys-
tails and precious stones afford in them
selves sufficient matter for a tolerably
long dissertation. To them, therefore,
let us keep for the present. Phny be-
heved that the diamond will suspend or
prevent the attraction of the loaastone
if placed between it and piece of iron;
and, although the problem was one ca
pable Of speedy solution by experiment,
he went on to ascribe the same remark-
able property to the plant garlic. Eu-
sebius Nierembergius, learned Span
lard, had his own private craze. He
imagined that the human body, left to
turn as it would, would always point it's
head to the north, and it is hard to un-
derstand how this and most of the other
fallacies connected with the loadstone
escaped detection by experiment. Loe-
ius Bisciola, for instance, asserted that
one ounce of iron added to ten ounces
Of loadstones would only produce total
weight Of ten ounces, and Apollonius
and Beda join in testifying that there
are certain loaadstone which attract only
