AvcusrA, Jan. 17.—Both Houses met at 9. o’clock this morning, according to adjourn- qment, and, after reading the journals, took a Tecess until Itisdoubtfulif a quorum is present in theHouse. At least fio menibers have gone home, and several have not put in an appearance in the hall. } IN THE HOUSE. At the end of the recess in the House, Cushman, of Sherman, made a speech rec- ommending application to Congress for aid in repelling the attempts under the decision of the Supreme Court to drive this body from the State-House. . George F.. Hill, of Corinth, said: “We stand to-day in a very critical condition. The clergy, the money-power, and the courts are’ against us.” He believed that some meas- ures should be adopted for the submission of further questions to the Court, giving a fair statement of the case, and he hoped that some member would suggest ‘the “means whereby this might be effected. He notieed that. “several members, who yesterday ex- pressed their willingness to shed their last drop of blood in defending our rights, are ubsent today.” [Applause and Jaughter.] But he believed that there were sensible men enough left to treat this question with the attention its gravity deserved. "Mr. Ingalls, of Wiscasset, offered a joint order for the'appointment of a committee of five, to ke joined by such as the Seriate may see fit, to take into consideration THE SITUATION OF AFFAIRS, dnd report to the’ House the best method of procedure. The Supreme Court had decided on the Set questions submitted by another andirreguiar body, that this body was not legally constituted. He thought a set: of auestions giving a fair statement of the case inight be submitted. ‘| We want peace, but we want our rights. Let us consult together asinen, knowing our rights and determined n.”? pv ge Naples,.said he believed the decision: of the-Court was.a-partisan one, but he did‘‘not want to resist:by force. There Peaceable Means of meeting this crisis. ' ~ Benner, of Waldoboro, said his ‘position xvas the same as iill’s; and he heartily in- dorsed his remarks. . Bradbury, of ‘Norway, said we were here Jegally and jawfully, but were in perilous times, and ‘should act with caution. It was the. part of wise and. brave ‘men .to sub- mit 10. the. inevitable. If the Court has been used .as an- instrument to deprive us of; our rights, it is not a crime for us.to stand as honest: men. Revo- lution: has come by action of the Court. Against that Court we have no appeal except to the people. Let us go back to them. The ballot-box is still left to us; to that we must appeal. He heartily approved of the pro- posed order, and hoped it would pass. . Robinson, of Thomaston, also favored the. passage of this order. Cushman, of Sherman, still advocated a resort to Congress. 3 Perry, of Camden, favored the order in a speech of some length. Perry’s ch, grested with applause, mingled with HISSES FROM TUE REAR OF THE WALL.- Bradbury, of Norway, protested against the hisses as a breach of decorum, and hoped for the good name of the State that sound woulti never be heard here again. Ingalls moved an amendment to the order, Jimiting the Committee to members of the House, and leaving the Senate to take inde- pendent action. The order, as amended, was passed, and the Speaker a wppointed Ingalls, of Wiscasset, Robinson, of Thomaston, Wilson, of Orona, Whitman, of Harrison, and Will, of Exeter, the members of the Committee. Notice was given that this Committee would meet at the Augusta House immediately after the House ‘ adjonrned: i tiles. of West Brook, Lewis, of Spring- field. Staples, of Parsonfield, and ussey, of Proves, made brief speeches ou the situa- ion. JOINT CONVENTION.

G. INCIDENTAL. SMITH YS. CHAMBERLAIN. Avausra, Me., Jan. 17.—Joseph L. Smith, who: yesterday forenoon was elected Gov- ernor by the Fusionist Legislature, was in- augurated in the afternoon, and subsequent- ly issued an order dismissing Gen. Chamber- Jain from the command of the State militia, and from the control of the. public property. Gen. Charaberlain -will pay no attention to the order of Gov. Smith taking away the command of the militia. He will remain in the place assigned him, he says, until a Gov- ernoris legally elected and qualified. The Democrats talk threateningly, and condemn the decision of the Court. THE POLICE FORCE NOT INCREASED, Boston, Mass., Jan. 17.—The. Herald’s Augusta special. says the police force on duty in the State-House has apparently not been increased, but the occasional open- ing of the doorsof aroom onthe second | floor used for headquarters reyeals the fact that it is full of resolute-looking men wear- ing badges. Gen. Chamberlain’s staff are all on duty, and Mayor Nash has been pres- ent ali the morning. | SMITH HELPLESS. - ‘The Mayor regards Goy. Smith’s orders as a harmless exhibition of rhetoric. “What can he do?” asked the Mayor; and, ansver- ing himself, said: ‘Smith has no authority which anybody will respect. He has no sup- port from the Supreme Court. He can get ‘no aid from the militia or Sheriffs. He does not control the State Treasury, and whatever funds he uses must-come from private sources. He has no arms, and, in fact, it may be said he has no backing whatever of an official character. If he attempts to turn Chamberlain out of the State-House by force, his force will be that of a mob, and a mob would have an exceedingly warm recep- tion here.” When asked if he believed there would be any breach of the peace, the Mayor said: “Certainly not on our part. If any actof violence is committed, it must come: from the other side. We are here to preserve the peace, not to break it. We have protected both Legislatures in the peaceful occupation of the legisjative halls, and propose to inter- ‘| fere in no manner, so long as they do not re- sort to violence.” ADVICE WANTED. It is understood the Fusionists have tele- graphed for the opinion of Gen. Butler, the. Hon. Mr. Bradbury, and other well-known lawyers, to offset the opinion of the Supreme Court, and expect replies in season to lay be- fore the members of their Legislature upon reassembling on Tuesday next. ' -WEARENING. ‘The Fusionists are quiet, and will not talk much. There isa report that they will en- deavor to compromise, butit is of doubtful authority.. Some Fusionists have certainly weakened. At least two members of the House haye said they would not resist the decision of the Supreme Court, and: the re- marks of the Senator from Aroostook yes- terday indicate that he is of the same dispo- sition. The hotels ars crowded with men, -mostly Republicans, who haye come here from Bangor, Waterville, Bath, and other large cities, ready to take a hand in case of necessity.

Spectal Dispatch to ‘The Chicago Tribune. Bexorr, Wis., Jan, 17.—A fire was discov- ered soon after 10 :o’clock this evening in a frame shed in the rear at Goodhue’s brick block, State street, and soon communicated with the main building. The fire companics did the best they Gould with inadequate tools, but could not. save the building or preyent the fire’ from ‘extending to the Salisbury House, adjoining on the‘south, although it Boston, caught fire. Goodhue’s Block was one of the oldest in the city, and had been but little used of late. One-half of it was owned by the William Goodhue estate, and the other half by Mrs. Wash Sglisbury.

Mirwavsee, Jan. 17.—A fire at 2 o’clock this morning almost entirely. consumed a two-story frame residence near the upper end of Prospect street, owned by W. F. Dal- rymple and occupied by George Scheller, head clerk of the Newhall House. The family barely escaped with their lives. The building is insured’ for $5,000 in the #tna, and the furniture for $1,500 in the Manu- facturers’ of Boston. This will more than cover the loss. In one of the tipper rooms of the dwelling, Mr. Dalrymple had stored about $500,000 in Milwaukee & Dubuque Railway bonds, also about $200,000 in bonds of the defunct Milwaukee & Beloit Railroad. As the new bonds were unsigned the loss will not amount to any more than the bare cost of paper, printing, and trans- portation. AT ELGW, ILL.

Spectat- Gable. Sh Lonvoy, Jan. 17.~There are fresh rumors of anearly dissolution of Parliament, but they can be traced to no good authority., |, Much depends on the election to fill the vacan- cy at Liverpool, caused by Mr. ‘Torr’s death. ‘The Liberals have not yet resolved whether to contest the seat, as there 'is a majority of 4,000 to overcome. . The decision is left to the local leaders,.and an answer is expected on Monday. There have been numerous Minis- terial: and Opposition speeches during the week, . buf they. leaye the political. sitya- tion’ substantially unchanged. - Sir William Vernon Harcourt’s brilliant and powerful attack: at Oxford has produced irritation among tthe Ministerial supporters, arid per- haps strengthens the feeling that the Gov- ernment cannot much longer decline the re- peated challenges of. the ‘Liberals to dissolve Parliament. Sir Stafford Northcote, the Right Hon. Wiliam H. Smith, Lord George. Hamilton, and many lesser lights continue to make. replies to.Mr. Glad- stone. Judicious -observers consider that there is a growing conviction among the non- partisan public that the Imperial policy of the.

The renewed attenpts to influence the Euro- pean: bourses by.the report of the Kalisch outrage have bees” promptly met by @ per- émptory official denial of that story. The week closes trandiilly. " | GAMBETTA’} DETERMINATION. M. Gambetta’s: p¥ykept: acceptance ‘of th Presidency of the Chamber of Deputies is due to his determination not to allow his ene- mies to dictate his policy. MM. Gambetta’s friends, however, go* too far in saying that his diminished majority is ex- plainable . by. accidentaleauses, since it-is undoubtedly the result of an- unacknowl- edged coalition between the Right and the Extreme Left. Both abstained from voting, and both desire to compel M. Gambetta to ac- cept’ the Premiership before ready, believing that he may thus destroy his popularity. But M. Gambetta knows that these factions, though able to unite for this purpose, are UNABLE TO ACT TOGETHER AGAINST HIM permanently. His’ acceptance disconcerts the intrigues of those who relied on his throwing up the post from pique. M. Clem- enceau’s new paper, Justice, avows that the intention was to signify to M. Gambetta that he must accept the responsibility of power. ‘The Tory papers (English and French) write in the same sense, - M. Freycinet’s program secures the approval of .the Republicans, the Extreme Left excepted. The Catholic Bishop of Salford publishes a letter DIBAVOWING his alleged approval of the Irish agrarian agitation, saying that to threaten landlords or tenants and to address violent inflamma- tory, revolutionary harangues to crowds of excitable peasants are equivalent to propa- gating Communism. His previous letter was intended only to approye of constitu- tional agitation. 2 THE AMERICAN MISSION. Constant inquiries are made in diplomatic circles as to when the American Govern- ment intends to appoint a Minister to En- gland. They recognize Mr, Hoppins’ able, courteous discharge of the duties of Char; d’Affaires, but ‘Tory politicians begin ta.query whether ‘the delay in send- ing. a full Minister does not indicate Dolitical coolness. Such inference would be surely drawn if a European Power acted similarly. Remarks are heard frequently in society on the same point. A distinguished lady says she used to meet Mr. Motley wherever candles ‘were lighted. . Now she never sees or hears of an American Min- ister. Some journals also comment on the vacancy, alleging that the inadequate sal- ary compels competent candidates to decline the position. One’ paper declares that there is no prospectof resent Government’s inducing a suitable Minister to accept the position, and understands that the matter is postponed until the next Administration. All this is distinctly injurious to the Ameri- can reputation. |... Lhe American Consul at Newcastle pub- ; lishes a third letter attacking American pro- tection. The letters sufficiently prove Maj. Jones’ ability, but Englishmen, while wel- co! him as an ally, express surprise that the American Government permits its of- ficers to argue against the American policy. i THE ELECTRIC eeee Sie ~ In the lecture last night atthe Royal In- stitution by Prof. Dewar on the electric arc, Mr. Edison’s recent. alleged discoveries were not even mentioned. At a: pri- vate" meeting the '. scientists utterly discredited the reported successes of the, carbon horseshoe, The Daily News’ New -York dispatch, describing the fresh difficul- ties which were arising and the collapse of the horseshoe device, demolished the specu- dation for: a. fall: in. gas shares. A, rise of 10 “per cent followed. “ Stock- brokers say there was Hue or no genuine sellin; 1; the recent low prices. The New York party of. “‘bears™ is discom: fited. It is reported that 0 prosecution is contemplated against the Paris. Figaro for its recent puffs of Mr. Edison. French Scientists agree with the experimental ‘inge- e nuity, but they affirm that his repeated iistaken announcements aro duse.. to his ignorance of previous discoveries which are familiar to all experts, The inyesters-in Morstor’s automatic telegraph, mentioned in . # previous dispatch, ask why Edison offers no reply to their charges of bad faith. * Mr. Walter refuses to withdraw, and @ Te iter to wil Ww, and de- clares that he Intends £9 ‘contest Pertishire, “even against a Liberal. © Letters. from’ Herbert Spencer announce his intention to cut short his. journey in Fens health ins faproves, and he nds to-re in February.

It .is not that the popular Count de Saint Vallier’s resignation of the Embassy at Berlin ‘is believed’ to endanger the cause of peace. . It‘ is mainly that M.

We added that fears of distress in Ireland were incréasing and that the Government was rapidly 1 uring measures of relief, W, TLSmith, First Lord of the Admiralty, claimed at Sutton that Beaconsfield’s policy..was in conferring the Grand Cross of Medjidie | the Schloss. peaee, and that no annexation of ter- ritory. has ever been contemplated un- less imperial interests compelled _ it. The independence of’ Afghanistan . had been respected as long.as it was possible. Sir William Vernon Harcourt, in a ringing speech at Oxford, declared that the burden of all the ‘criminal blunders that had been committed lay upon’ the Tories, and proph- esied thatthe -first day of the new Parlia- ment would be: the last day of Tory rule. Sir Charles Dilke writes, proposing to call the attention of Parliament to the executions at Cabul.. Mr. Gladstone attacks Sir Stafford Northcote’s “‘Blundering Misinterpretation of the Finances.” : fee On Friday Mr. Forster wrote. approving the annexation of the Transvaal on ‘the ground that the Boers protect siavery, and the English will destroy it. - This declaration of Mr. Forster has much annoyed the Liber- als.. Theré are everywhere indications of a break in the Liberal councils on the question of Lord Beaconsfield’s foreign policy. CANADIAN ANNEXATIO: The newspapers, in discussi he prob- ability that Canada will join the Union, says Manitoba develops capacity to supply. the civilized world with wheat, and therein lies the source of renewed strength tothe Empire. ‘The Conservatives attack Gladstone for lend- ing his support to the Southern Confederacy, and Gladstone replies: that his sentiments were always friendly to the: North, even Hamilton Fish acquifting him of -conscious hosfility. Ina word, is THE TWO CABINET COUNCILS * which met on Thursday and Friday had. an extraordinary number of momentous -topics to consider; but, as there is no immediate ne- cessity to calm the public mind on any topic, or to lead it in any particular direction, none of the business there transacted has been published, either officially or unofficially. Another meeting of the Cabinet Council is‘ held to-day. Irish questions absorb deep attention, and that of.the famine ‘more than all else. Cases of actual starya- tion are reported. in .the papers day after day, proving that the distress threatens to'bec ine in Silesia. A case was reported this morning of a woman haying oe : DIED OF BIARVATION in Kilkenny. This county is just now in- vaded_by a.great number of tramps who have left distressed districts. They roam about at large, and, in_ consequence of the insufficiency of police, burglaries and robberiesare committed everyday, Canon McDermott says in Mayo there are 7,000 or 8,000 people actually without food or fuel. In Galway laborers refuse to work at the rate of two shillings or eighteen pence a day.. At- tention is seriously directed to the necessity of developing industrial and mineral resources of Ireland, Letters. have been published urging capitalists to look at_the question of developing iron ore in Sliga County, and rec- ommending the better working of peatde- ‘posits, which should be ‘good sources of wealth, and provide abundant occupation for the peasantry. y If THE PRESENT DISTRESS _ should result in English capital being de- voted to opening direct and complete rail- road communication with the west of Ire- land, it is believed that, in the future, Irish farmers will find _it possible to compete with the French and Belgian peasants, who are ngw enabled to pour vast quantities of arti- cles for daily consumption into England. THE SOCIAL EVENTS OF THE WEEK have been the marriages of Lord Tenterden, Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs, and Dr. Frazer, Bishop of Manchester. Dr. Frazer’s bride was iss Duncan, of Bath. Lord Tenterden’s bride was Mrs. Rowcliffe, widow of Henry Roweliffe, Q. C.. a .There is a well-authenticated rumor that Prince Oscar, eldest son of the King of Nor- wey and Sweden, is to be married to Princess Helena of Waldeck-Piermont, sister of the Queen of the Netherlands. ‘The Bishop of Peterborough has caused a stir by_declaring that the . crowning sin of English “social _ life to-day is not intemperance, but impurity. The controversy concerning the improper use of narcotics continues unabated. The charge is now made that chloral, morphia sirup, and hydrate of chloral are ruining homes, and that the habit of opium-eating has a hold among London lJadies that has never been suspected beyond the pale of the medical profession. S ALITIE INDIA INE. There.is another social. event that has caused Mayfair to.totter on its base.. An announcement has been made, no one knows how or whence, that the Prince of Wales’ two sons, Prince Albert- Victor and Prince George, who are serving on board a man-of- war, have been tattooed. on the nose with Indiaink, Vanity Fair learns on excellent authority, however, that.the mark on the side of the nose is only an eighth of an inch long. RUSSELL AND WOLSELEY, Interest is once more taken in the comi duel between Sir Garnet Wolseley and the bold Dr. Russell, arising from the charges made by~the latter: that the British showed great inhumanity in Transvaal. Journalistic sym- pathy is with Russell, who is regarded as an honorable and prudent litterateur, notin any way disposed to libel his countrymen. - The clubs are also applauding the ac- tion of the Duke of Cambridge in reducing his rents 15 per cent, and of Lord Beacons- field in reducing them 20 per cent.
