Said q policeman, the other night: The

is most often with the houses OF the better

AUGUsTA, Jan. %.
The Senate was not in session Saturday ,hav-
ing the day before adjourned over until Mon
day afternoon. The House however held a
session and had just quorum present, 76 mem
bers answering to their names on call of the
roll. No business of any Importance was
transacted.
The selectmen of Stockton represent that
their town paid 81 ,99S on it's state tax for 1881
un5ustly assessed oD its last decade valuation
which was $600,000, instead Of the present
valuation which is $401, 900. They ask the
legislature to have the sum uniustly taken
refunded to the town. This matter was
before the Legislature two winters ago.
Nicholas Fessenden is making one of the

land, together with Miss True, acting princi-

before the committee on education to present
the claims of that school for additional aid
from the State. Three of the pupils who have
been taught to articulate will be present to
show the methods Of instruction and the sue
cess accomplished by them.
The Bangor Historical Society will call the
attention of the legislature next week to the
necessity Of preserving the block house at
Fort Kent, which is nearly as old as the one
at Winslow. A small appropriation is needed
and will undoubtedly be granted to save from
spoliation this relic of historical interest The
matter will be brought to the attention of the
legislature by Representative Fl Id of Bangor
ana Major Dickey of Fort Kent.
The Judiciary committee arc diligently in
quiring into the necessity for Superior Courts
Two are already asked for in the counties of
Aroostook and Androscoggin Of the present
legislature. Penobscot county, notwithstahd-
ing reports to the contrary, has not contempt
lated asking for the establishment of such a
court. This is the view of leading lawyers of
that county, and members of the bench, in
cluding Chief Justice Peters. The position of
Penobscot county in this matter together with
the increase of public burdens, will operate
upon the lawmakers to move with great eau
tion. Where absolutely demanded, as in
Aroostook county, because of its large terri
tory and the infrequency of terms of the s. j.
Court, there is likely to to be little or no oppo
sition made against the establishment of Su-
nerior Court

CONGRESSES WORK.
What 1t Will he the Coming Week and
Hts Propects.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-The interstate COM
merce bill and the Nicaragua treaty are as
they were at the beginning of last week and
of the week before, the leading measures before
the Senate and appear to be not perceptibly
nearer the point of final action than they were
week ago, and it is probable that their dis
cussion will outast the present week if they
are not laid aside. The Bayard resolutions ex-
pressing the sentiments of the Senate regard
ing the London explosions may lead to some
debate tomorrow. The regular order is likely
to be laid aside later ia the week for the dis
cussion and passage of the pensions and the
consular and diplomatic appropriation bills,
one or both, and it is possible, also, that the
Indian appropriation bill, which will reech the
appropriations committee tomorrow, will be re-
ported before the end of the week. The tenn
porary naval bill is still ia the hands of the
conferees but an agreement will probably be
reached tomorrow or Tuesday, and it is not
likely to lead to any further discussion in the
Senate.
The annual appropriation bill for the Dis
trict of Columbia will be called up in the
House tomorrow. At 2.30 eulogistic addresses
win be delivered In honor of the late Repre-
sentative Duncan OF Pennsylvania. The COM
mittee on appropriations expect to report the
