At S o'clock the meeting was called to order

tary.
The object of the organization was set forth
to be league to cooperate with the Irish Ma
tIonal Land league in its efforts to establish a
peasant proprietary in Ireland.
Rules we're read, among which it was stated
that any friend of Ireland was eligible for
membership. A fee of 25 cents or more will
be assessed each month. The fund thus accru-
ing will be transmitted with other contribu-
tons which are solicited and which may be re-
ceived, for relief in Ireland and other objects
looking to attaining the patriotic ends contem-
plated by the Land league.

porary organization by electing the following
officers

COY, SEYMOUR.

It is reported from Utica, the home of
Gov. Seymour, that that gentleman is very
much aggrieved at the reports that have
gone forth as to his forlorn physical con-
dition. The rumor has gone forth-from
what source DOES not appear-that the ey-
governor is physical wreck: that he is a
victim to insomnia, and that the worriment
of Presidential campaign would inevitably
end his life. Though pretty well advanced
in years-having been born in 1S11-Gov
Seymour is still in the enjoyment of his
mental faculties. Physically he is far supe-
rior to nine out of ten of the men who have
attained his years. For decade past he has
lived life of comparative ease, free from
all the disturbances that attend political life.
He has had the opportunity to recuperate
his energies, and judging from his recent
utterances he has lost nothing of the vigor
that has in the past characterized his con-
duct in public affairs.
Gov. Seymour is not, though he has
reached the allotted age of man, three score
years and ten, physical nonentity. He is
yet in the enjoyment of complete health.
There is every prospect that he will live for
twenty years to come, and retain his mental
faculties for that length of time. He could
not only sustain his own during Presiden-
tial campaign, but would emerge from it as
bright as when he entered upon it. His
physical vitality Is equal to his mental vitali-
ty, and neither would break down under the
strain involved in canvass of only a few
months duration. Furthermore, as Pres
idential candidate he would be invulnerable.
He has no personal and few political en-
emies. He is universally respected, and
would carry his own State by an overwhelm-
ing majority. In 1868 he had majority
over Grant of ten thousand votes. In 1880
he would quadruple the majority of 1868.
There is an evident desire in some quarters
to force Gov. Seymour from the Presidential
race. It is liable to fail of consummation
on account of the very means employed to
accomplish the end. Though Gov. Seymour
is not and does not desire to be considered
in the field, the calumnies of his enemies
may force him to the front. Such result
would not be regretted by majority of the
Democratic party, who hold the sage of Uti-
Ga in very high regard. If he should choose
to take the field he would sweep the country
as whirlwind, and none of the other aspi-
rants would stand the ghost of a show for
the nomination. The opponents of the gov
ernor will have to adopt some other tactics
from those they are now employing if they
wish to keep him off the course.

In the controversy between Joe. Medill Of

INthe controversy between Joe. Medill of
the Chicago Tribune and John Sherman,
wherein the question of veracity is plumptly
raised, those who know both gentlemen will
believe Medill. There is neither reason or
common sense in Sherman's charges. Being
stunc by the effectual blows upon the Presi-
Dental boom by the Tribune he seeks to
parry them by fslsehood. The only thing
in the least extenuating for Sherman is the
pertinacity with which he adheres to his
falsehood. He evidently has faith in the
availability of a lie we'll stuck to.

yesterday. A MIR. johnson, residing at the
corner Of Sixth and Franklin streets, re-
ported that Mrs. VIM. Gray had taken posses
sion of his house aud refused to be removed.

found Mrs. Gray established to stay. Capt.
Clark then went to the scene Of the siege, and
with the help of Health Officer Myerdiug in
duced Mrs. Gray to accompany him to the sta
ton and there she was taken to Jail, ard in
formation Of her insanity was lodged with
Judge O'Gorman, of the probate court. and a
hearing will take place at 10 A. M, to-day.
Mrs. Gray, the wife of former well-to-do
carpenter, owned several houses near the cor
ner of Franklin and Sixth streets. which by the
vicissitudes of fortune have passed out of her
possession. She is deluded into the belief that
they are still hers, and about rent-day visits
the occupants with a demand for payment.
Her visit yesterday was of that character, and
becoming violent, the house was abandoned.
and she took possession, to be dislodged as
stated above.

MATCHES.
An Excellent Method Of teaching

An Excellent Method of teaching
that Branch.
The Lyon County Times states that
geography matters are becoming popular
in the schools of that county. These
are conducted in the following manner !:
The teacher either states a geographical
name, or calls upon one Of his pupils to do
SO. When the name is spoken, another
pupil is ordered to state the location OF the
object named. II this is done correctly
the same pupil has the privilege OF giving
out the name beginning with the last letter
of the name given to him or her. II the pu-
pill called on is unable to give a satisfactory
answer he or she sits down, and the next
pupil is asked. This is repeated until
there is but one pupil left standing. An
example will make the mode of procedure
plain A asks B to state where the city OF
sacramento is situated, and to give such
information concerning it as may be Of in
terest. b replies The city of Sacra-
mento is situated in Sacramento county,
State Of California. 1t is the capital Of the
State. Is then goes On to state what he
knows Of the local history of the place un-
til the teacher signifies his approval, when
he gives out a name beginning with 90"
the last letter in the word Sacramento.
This is a superior method of teaching,
as the pupils enter into it with a zest and
an interest inspired by none other.
