throws into control of the circuit cog
wheel which marks off the minutes. For
ten seconds, then, or until the minute
has expired, the circuit will remain un-
broken, there will be no electric i'm
pulse sent out. The operators listen
ing for the time have counted from the
last break in the beating twenty dis
tinct impulses. When the beating
stops on the twentieth they know that
the next impulse will mark the close
of the fifty-ninth minute of the eleventh
hour. In response to this signal the
operator in charge Of the time-ball
on the Western Union Building in
New York throws a switch which
brings into circuit the machinery which
controls the ball. The adjustment of
that machinery is such that a single
impulse will release the ball. AtWood's

Binnie seconded the resolution, which
was carried without opposition. Messrs.
Culpeper, Cameron and D%onnelly, were
then chosen as liquidatOrs of the company,
and the meeting broke up.
The young man named Alleyne who
was charged with using improper language
in a tramway car, and who threatened to
strike a lady on the mouth because she
requested him to cease smoking, was fined
by the Police Magistrate in $1O,-this
being the full penalty under the Ordinance
The Magistrate said he regretted the
offender was over 16 years of age, because
if he had not been he would certainly have
sentenced him to be birched. AS a rule,
the lower classes are very civil and polite,
in public places, especially to ladies' but
occasionally creatures like the one the
Magistrate would have liked to birch,
make themselves Objectionable, and call
for interference. The lady who was instru-
mental i'll having the charge laid against
the offender has done a great service to
the public, to her own sex and class in
particular, and we'll deserves the thanks
of all interested in the suppression of de-
veIOped or incipient ruttianism.

The people are not firing; still, even
their own newspapers are beginning
to show signs of the change. The
Cork Herald recently published a lei
ter from Macroom declaring that the
police were not being bOycotted there.
At this a member of the League at
Y0uyhaI makes a similar complaint.
Youghnl, he declares, is "a very para
disc for police, emergency-men and
land-grabb+rs" Members OF the
League "~freqnenrly sit down and
treat policemen TO a social glass, and
also indulge in a game Of cards in the
company of policemen" Emergency
men and land-grnbhers are also wei
coined INTO their shops by members
of the League, and INDUCED with II
chat over the counter. The truth Of
the remarks thus made by the Scand-
ali~ed correspondence the COykHerad
Is well illustrated by a fact stated IN
the Tima8 of Tuesday namely that
it recently came out in evidence that
pr0mpneut Natioualists in Fermoy
"who Denounced policemen from
public platforms, and called for their
boycotting, were afterwards discover
ed sending their wares 10 the police
ba~rack inter dark, and were found
to have entertained members of the
force in their brck-pariours." In
truth, the feeling of the Irl~hmen is
not bitter enough 10 support boycott
ting except under heavy brides such
as withholding the rent. The shop

Spectator, September 22nd.)

The great State Trial has com
menced. The first sitting of the
three Judges-the Right Hon. Sir j.
Hammer, Mr.. Justice Day, and Mr..
Justice Smith-appointed 10 conduct
The Investigation into the charges
brought by the Times against the Par
nellite Members, was held on Mon
day, and October 22nd vas fixed for
the commencement of the actual trial.
It was announced also by the Presi-
dent of the Commission, Sir james
Hannen, that the Judges would. so
tar as possible, conduct the Irqnlry

tween the parties to try the truth or

ed after a careful controversy, that
all persons who appear in the inquiry
care in a position analogous to that

that the counsel for the Times must
"discover" all The documents IN their
posses ion to the Commissioners, who
will then decide which of them shall
be shown to the opposite counsel.
This order also extends TO Sir T.. Rus,
sci and Mr.. Asquith, as representing
the ParneIlites. Further, it was de-
creed, in spite of protests from the
Times counsel, Mr.. Graham, that the
Times must make the charges definite
and particuIarise the allegations. I he
Commission, however, decided that as
regards sending a Commission to ex-
anime Mr.. Egan, now in America,
and accused by Mr.. Graham of com
plicity in the Phoenix Park murders
there should be a suspension of such
order, it not being yet clear that
the witness could not or would not
come to this country. The general
effect OF the sitting was TO show great
resolution in the Judges, who expli-
city admitted an obligation under the
Act to search the matter 10 the bottom
even if all the parties retired, and
who throughout acted as if presiding
rather in a great State trial than in a
mere inquiry. The proceedings have
created so far a profound feeling of
satisfaction, the one desire of the
country now being that the matter
should be probed to the bottom by
an impartial and qualified tribunal.

A great excitement has been caused
in Germany by the publication, in
the De@tsche RmndschaW, of Il diary
kept by the late EmI error Frederick,
when Crown Prince, in l870-71. 1t
shows that he, and not Prince Bis

the Imperial Throne at Versailles
and that, in fact, The making OF the
Empire was mainly due to him,
Prince Bismarck having threatened
to resign rather than act, as he
thought, so prematureiy The Diary

parent, aud also shows that the latter
whose mind dwelt greatly on the
future, intended TO make the Empire
II constitutional monarchy, with res
ponsibIe Ministers and a direct authO-
rity throughout It's dominion. The
publication has greatly delighted
German Liberals and greatly irritated
German Conservatives, and will, it is
believed, affect all future political
contests. The Government has fore
ed the proprietor of the DeutSche
RundSchaW to stop the further sale of
the number, and a furious cOntrOver-
~ is raging as to the authenticity of
the Diary. 1t is believed that further
portions of it will appcar-if not in
Germany, then abrOad-and that in
particular a diary kept throughout
the war of 1886 is already in type.
I he popular belief is that the late
Emperor deposited several copies II
his memoirs with intimate friends, and
that one of them has been intentional
ly indiscrerI. 1t is known that the
Empress Victoria disapproyes the
publication.
Prince Bismarck, deeply irritated
bv the publication of the Diary, hns
demanded and obtained from the
Emperor William a criminal prOSecu-
ton of The DeM8che RundSchaW, intend
ed, it is supposed, to compel the pro-
prietor to give up his authority. AS
the prosecution is under The law for
bidding the betrayal of State secrets,
it will b. necessary to success TO adj
mt tie genuineness of the Diary.
This, however, The Chancellor denies,
though in a very cautious and pecu-
liar way. He says the Crown Prince
was uniformed, the late King dread
ing lest, if the Grown Prince were
admitted TO a knowledge of ''esoteric"
politics, "indi~crpet revelations might
be made to the English Court
a sharp hit en- pdSSant at the Empress
Mother. There are, besides, chrome
logical blunders, The conversation on
the future of Germany having occur
red at Donchery on September 3rd,
and not at Versailles. The idea that
the Prince could have thought of
using force against German allies is
a caInmny on him. 1t may have
existed among his entOmage, but was
too "~diShonorable to find an echo in
his heart. Prince Bismarck admits
tacitIy that he drafted the King of
BavarIa's letter, offering the Imperial
Throne to King William, but says
King Ludwig had shown his loyalty
by placing his army at Prussian dis
position. AS to iufaIlibility, Prince
Bismarck did not utter the opinion
attributed to him at the time stated,
so the Diary could not have been
written up daily. All this is wenk.
If the Diary has been published with
out sanction, Prince Bismarck has
deep reason to complain; but minute
criticism of this kind amounts to
nothing. Literary forgers do not
devise great politics.

The Paris correspondent of the
Times, who, with many patent foibles,
is a shrewd observer, takes a very
respondent view of the French Par

October 9th. He evidently thinks
the discussions among the Republi-
cans incurable, and expects M.
Floqnets fall and the rise of M.
Ol6menceau, who is now willing to
take office. The Bonapartists, he
implies, have recovered their own
confidence without recovering that of

A Bark Wrecked.

PORTLAND Ogn.. May 27.-News was
just received from the north, of the
total loss of the American bark Julia
Ford, in Karluk Bay, Alaska. The
vessel was wrecked April 25th, but the
first intelligence was received to-day.
The Julia Ford was commanded by
Captain Trainer, and came from San
Francisco with a cargo for Karluk
cannery. On its arrival, the anchor
was dropped, and preparations were
made TO discharge the cargo and land
about forty Chinese passengers. A
heavy storm from the northeast came
up, and it appeared that unless the
vessel could heaVe off shore, and tack
to get off the dangerous rocks on shore,
she was in imminent danger of being
wrecked. The anchor chain was hove

tack, when heavy swell sent the

" ARLINGTON. Nay 27.-Just before

this institution, desire that students
shall be made to appreciate evil conse-

Gagged in selling distilled liquors than

their education anywhere. They are
welcome to this institution, if they will
come, but the object is more particu-
larry to reach the multitude, and the
people who have to consider the expen-
diture of every dollar. The hope is to
