| BosToN, Jan. 26.-The "Herald's"
Augusta special says:
The Republican programme, as out
lined this morning, is, that after hear
ing what the Supreme Court has got to
say regarding the Fusionist statement,
to have the Governor issue proclama-
tlon commanding the dispersion of the
fusioniSt Government, and If any one
persists in exercising administrative or
legislative functions to arrest him i'm
mediat-ly. Probably the Governor will
give the Fusionists not over twenty
four hours warning.
AUGUSTA, Me-, Jan. 26-Ths House
met at IL o'clock. The Senate is not
in session.
The Speaker read a communication
from the Governor transmitting con-
gratulatory resolutions from the Legis-
lature Of Wisconsin. He also present
ed an order providing for joint spe-
cial committee to investigate the taking
OF the seal and records.
The House transacted bat little bu-
siness, and adjourned until P. M.
AUGUSTA, Me-, Jan. 26.-Both branch
es of the regular Legislature to-day
passed resolutions providing for con-
s.itutional amendment for electing the
Governor by plurality instead Of q
majority vote.
The Senate appointed Committees on
the, Investigation of the enlistment
and enrolment Of men and on the
loss of the Senate seals.
BANGOR, Me-. Jan. 26.-The Chief
Justice summoned the judges of the
Supreme Judicial Court to assemble
here this evening to determine whether
any and what action be taken upon
questions submitted by the Fusionists.
As the Court have twice gone over the
whole ground of the controversy the
session will probably be brief.
DAMARIscorTA, Me-, Jan. 26.-The
of Damariscotta, two Demo-
crats and one Republican, have decid-
I'd not to send valuation to either
Legislature until the trouble is settled.
One of the assessors is a member OF the
Fusion House.
AUGUSTA, Me-, Jan. 26.-The Fusion
Senate met at ten o'clock this morning
and took a recess until four O'Clock
this afternoon. At that hour both
branches assembled and adjourned rn-
til tomorrow at ten o'clock. The Fu-
sionists are in better spirits, the judges
having gone to Bangor to assemble
Most of their men have returned to-day
and will remain until after the decision.
AUGUSTA, Me-, Jan. 26.-This has
been an extremely dull day in Augusta,
here being nothing of special interest
o report. State Treasurer elect Rol-
brook, will be qualified tomorrow, hav-
ng filed his bond, and then will de-
nand of Treasurer White the Office and
Keys thereof. Should he refuse and
be served, it would take
until May to settle the question unless
/ special act is passed by the Legisla-
,ure. 1t is thought that White will
lot hold out should the decision of the
Court be against him.
AUGUSTA, Ne. Jan. 26.-The Fusion
SITS seem to remain firm. They will
lot attempt to transact business, but
Will meet and adjourn from day to day
Until the decision of the Court is receiv-
ID. Should it sustain the Republicans
most of them will take seats in the Leg
stature. 1t is thought that all the
senator's with the possible exception of
ne. will take their seats.
The Legislature will at once enter
lpo1 ths despatch of important busi-
ess before it without further prelimi-
aries. The troops will remain here
.ntil the Fusion Legislature breaks
p and matters have settled down to a
eace basis. Information from various
ouross shows that the people general
y endorse the action of the Governor
II defending the State House. Cover
lor Davis went to Bangor to-day and
7ill return tomorrow.
PORTLAND, Me, JAM, 26.-The Press
vill tomorrow publish an expose Of
he Brick Pomeroy League in Maine,
nth State circle devoted to Commu-
istic doctrines, and now employed in
ndeavors to seize the State Govern
lent. Five circles in Cumberland and
Dme in New York, Knox and other
ountries are known of. This is man
ged by advanced leaders of the Green
ack party, and the mase of that par
? are still ignorant ofits existence.
