The League Backing Down = Abandon ing All Proposed Meetings-Troops Or dered to the Troublesome Districts. LONDON, Oct. 21.-The Land League has issued proclamation urging the abandon. ment, on the part of all sympathizers, of all projected or contemplated League meetings, intimating that the English government means to use armed force upon any pretext furnished by meetings held under the auspices of the League. The seizure of the United IrSshnaen, the organ of the Land League, is believed to be in contemplation by the government.
 A large English military force has been despatched to the Change Ballaghaderin dis tricts to suppress the great riots raised d there by sympathizers with the Land League as- saulting the police detailed to protect farmers while paying their rents to-day.
 Great pressure is being exerted to obtain from the Pope strong and clear condemna- tion of the Land League manifesto.
 Mir. McGough, solicitor for the LandLeague, stated before the court of land commission to day that he had number of evictions ready, but as his clients had been branded as criminals he postponed them.

The Dark Day I'm Canada.

In some interesting and graphic reminis.
'cences of Montreal sixty years ago, Mr.. j.
II. Dorwin writes 10 the Montreal Star rs
follows:
"What was the strangest occurrence of
that time, or rather the slrapgest thing that
ever happened in the history Of this coun-
try, was what has been always known as the
Phenomenon of 1Sl9.' On the morning of
Sunday, November s, 1919, tho sun rose
upon cloudy sky, which assumed, as the
light grew upon it. a strange greenish tint
varying places TO an inky blackness. After a
short time the whole sky became terribly
dark, dense black clouds filling the
atmosphere, AMI then followed a
heavy shower of rain, which appeared TO be
something of the nature OF sospsuds, and was
found to have deposited after settling sub.
stance in oil its qualities resembling soot
Late in the afternoon the sky cleared to Its
natural aspect, and the next day was fine and
frosty. On tho morning Of Tuesday, the
10th, heavy clouds again covered the sky,
and changed rapidly from a deep gr cen to
pitchy black, and the sun, when occasionally
seen through them, was sometimes Of q
dark brown or an unearthly yellow color,
and again bright orange, and even blood red.
The clouds constantly deepened in color and
density, and later on a heavy vapor seemed
to descend to the earth, and the day
became almost rs dark rs night,
the gloom increasing and diminishing
most htfully. AT noon lights had 10 be
burned In the court house, tho banks, and
public offices Of the city. Everybody was
more or less alarmed, and many were the
conjectures as to the cause Of the remarkable
occurrence. The more sensible thought tina,
immense woods or prairies were on fro
somewhere to the west; others said that
great volcano must have broken out ia the
province; still others asserted that our noun.

The Pleasures Of Freezing.

Jasper Perley. a Cattaraugas county, y. o,
fazmer. nearly froze 10 death recently. When
found he was insehsible Ia the bottom Of his
sleigh. He was rubbed With snow and other
wise treated to revive the rireqletl9q, AiieE
a good deal Of thorough manipulation and
rubbing Perlsy was bFosght around when q
few doses Of whiskey sulfieed TO restore hlm
10 nearly bis normal condition. He thanked
his restorers very heartily, and gave an &C
count Of his misfortune, which affords some
inkling OF the sensations Of people Who freeze
to death.
When he felt 40 logger able to hold the
reins with any grip he determined TO seek
shelter in the first house until well warmed.
His tongue became stiff then his arms sharp
shills ran down his back, aGd finally II seem
cd as though his whole body was beiHg con,
eealed. causing an almost total cessation OF
he hearts action. This condition OF extreme
sutfering and dependency speedily gave place
to a feeling of grateful warmth, suiasipg the
system and causing an exhilarstlng glow by
this tins he had reached house, bat he
drove on, thinking that nothing was row to
be feared. The sleigh, instead OF craving
along ST a snail 5 pace, appeared 10 ghas
through the air with great swiitnessi and the
horses fairly flew like pigeons. A sense OF
exultation filed the CattaFaugus farmer 5
breast IS be urged the horses to still greater
spead, and the goods on either side were
PASSED SO quickly that they became indlsti1-
euishsble black lines. Then the sleigh bslls
sounded fainter and fainter until the chimes
disappeared in the distance, the farmer ieii
gradually into a delicious slumber, which
came near being the sleep thai knows no

Our Commercial and Mechanical Interests.

Prior to the late war the commercial
marine of the United States was equal to
that of any other nation. Our flag ioated
upon every sea, and IVES seen in all the
ports of the world. When the war broke
out ship owners sold off as rapidly as pos
sible, and the war tariff has prevented the
building of vessels since to supply the
places of those sold to the citizens Of other
nations. Our navigation laws prevent the
registry of any but American bottoms,
consequently the carrying trade is lost to
American enterprise, and is in the hands
of foreigners. We cannot build boats pro
fitably on account of the tariff, and our
laws will not permit our citizens to buy
them. Our skilled boat builders have
been driven away to find employment else
where, and our seamen have been forced
into foreign service. Two large indus
tries,-the shipbuilders and the sailors
have thus been ruined by the present high
destructive tariff. The clamor for Con-
gressional aid in the way of subsidies to
ocean steamers, is but to ask the appropri-
alton of money to support foreign ship
carpenters and seamen, instead OF fostering
both these industries at home. And
American craftsmanship, for all these long
years since the war, has been unequal to
the task of restoring our commercial ma
rine, and Of calling home our brave tars
from their foreign exile. Our naviga-
ton laws, and our high tariff, are set down
as 'sprotection to American industry, and
the fostering Of American mechanics
When will common sense again assert It's
sway? Such protection" is like that the
wolf gives to the lamb, but unreasoning
party prejudice prevents men from seeing 1t
in its true light, aud the dd captandsra cry
of protective tariff, has been sufficient
to prevent legislation on this subject and
a return to n wiser and more liberal policy
which would largely enhance our national
prosperity, and place these great interests
in the same healthy condition they were
in before the war.
