AOOCSTA, January Governor Joseph L. tilth at four o'clock thla afternoon advanced fc tbs fateway of tbe Cspitol. accompanied by fifty persons, representing themselves a ba tl.

Legislature, and demanded en-gae. Major Smith waa Informed that If pot hla reqaeat In writing it wonld be pre-Kitad to th. commander. Admission waa denied, and the 8enat and oom preceded to transact business on the aarwalk, there being about eight In the Pn-suaQd thirty-five in the House. The reading at tbe records was dispensed with, and wltn-sit transacting any bnalneeaof account thsy adjourned to Cnion Ball at ten o'clock tomorrow.

The crowd then dlepersed. Tbare waa great eomplaint on the part of lbs ruslonlsts, but no aeriona dtetnrbanoea oo-aarred. Admission waa denied to all parties, without any favoritism. Reporters ware ad-Bltted. The Treaanrer to-day laraed an order in-traetlng the aubordlnates of hie office not to honor soy demand for payment of money from the Treasury emanating from or Issued ky aatbority of either of the bodies now delmlDg to be the Legislature of the State asul farther advised by him.

At the Fusion meeting la front of the Aarosta House, held after the adjournment of a aeaion on tbs pavement, James D. Lamson Bade a brief address, relatlnghls grievances-tut he waa unable to gain admission to the lute-house, though he had aa much right there as any other citizen. He was glad to see a crowd so civil and circumspect. John C. Talbot, Speaker of the House, made brief ipeech In tbe same-vein.

Darlaa Alden, of Augusta, also made a few nmarka. While there were a number of ngly-alking Fuslonlsta In tbe crowd, the most of torn were good-natured, and Joksd about the aatUon of affairs. No threats were made, bit the Republicans wers given to nnderstand naoy ways that this would be used against turn In the next campaign. The crowd then aiittly dispersed. Governor Davis, by whose orders the State-Umt waa closed against the Fusion Legislates, siys he was unwilling that the faroe sold go on longer.

Had they applied as atisena, and not as a legislative body, ad miasm would have been granted. He should be seamed to occupy a position as Chief Execute! and allow what had juatly been termed hi Legislature to meet. If we have a legal Isniltture, backed up by the Courts, tbe peo-)m tad the military, It waa about time that a humbug part was done away with. Hp sal ao doubt that the rank and file Fualon-baare all right, and have an boneot purpose, art- If let alone by unscrupulous leaders raid take their places In the Legislature. Failing to gain admission to tbe State-house b-day has seemed to cement the Fuslonlst together, and they stand quite compactly at at present time.

They any Governor Smith old have bad ten thousand men in readiness a moment's notice, but his counsel has been br peace, and has prevailed. The meeting to-night of Fusion lata seemed krmonlona. They have secured Union IUL where they will bold their Leg-fctlve assemblies, beginning to-mosrow. The Secretary of State and Governor have seared rooms In the same building. Money Bough has been guaranteed to run their Larlalatur all winter and pay every man his alary.

They say they Intend' to appeal to Congress, and will soon have a Committee sr to investigate matters. Their Committee report to-morrow, unanimously declar- their. body to be legal, but have yet determined upon any definite plan of soon. The Republicans say such a Leglala-fer can not hold together a week, but In the jrewDt frame of mind of the Fusion 1st It la tepoaBlble to predict its length. It Is thought feat, had they taken possession of the State loose to-day, they would have held It.

Lam on. President of the Fusion Senate, and Mr. Talbot, Speaker of the Fusion House, appeared with tbs Secretary and Clerk of these Doaiea, ana demanded admission at the gate. On being refused by the Mayor they asked entrance ss members of the Legislature, only to have it again denied them. They put the same questions that Senator Strickland dV, and received similar A few minutes later Governor Smith came up, and attempted to pas without asking any questions.

He waa stopped by the officer's arm, and when he said, "I demand admission aa Governor," his authority was not recog- uisea, ana ne was tnrned back. At this time at least two thousand people had gathyed at the gates, and the throna swayed to and fro, endeavoring to hear what was going on. A Representative. iqddoukI to be Knowles, of Bradford, who has sat but not eoted with the Republican House, began speech, in which he denounced the authorities for refusing him admission In the strongest terms. Presently a new diversion occurred, and a eneer arew every body's attention to where tke tall form of Talbott, Speaker of the Fuslonlst House, was posted on the fence of the State-house yard.

Clerk Globs stood at nis feet with the record book and sundry papers. Mr. Tal bott said, in substance "Since we are not permitted to enter the Legislative Hall by a usurping and illegal Governor, It becomes my duty to- call tbe House of Representatives to order here on the nearest possible spot. 'Gentlemen of the House of Representatives, you will please come to order." The reading of the Journal was dispensed with, and an order was ofTered by Mr. Plais-ted, of Lincoln, that the House adjourn to meet to-morrow at Union Hall, Augusta.

In reading this order Mr. Talbot bosani "State of Maine, House of Representatives, ss near as possiDie," whloh created a laugh In the crowd. He declared the order adopted, and the House adjourned accordingly. Lamson, President of the Senate, who had also climbed upon tbe fenoe, took off his hat and said: "Gentlemen of tbe Senate will please eome to order." Plalsted'a order waa then taken up and adopted in consequence. and Lamson declared the Senate adjourned.

The members of the Fuslonlst Legislature started down State street, followed by a crowd. An indignation mooting was organised in front of the Augusta House, and speeches made by leading Fuslonlsta. Great excitment prevails. The scenes inside the State-house during the afternoon hours were extraordinary. The granite-walled old structure reeenTbled a feudal structure, awaiting an attack.

In every passage way. from the subterranean regions up to the roof, were policemen, armed with revolvers. The policemen challenged the steps of the exceedingly few persons who had by special favor gained admittance. A double guard protected the Governor's room. The spacious rotunda below swarmed with men, and when any one succeeded in get ting past the guards at the step gate he was not admitted to the 8tate-house with out secreting from the vigilant special sentries who tended the.

carefully-locked doors. The younger guardsmen on duty did not hesitate to show their revolvers, and were anticipating with youthful ardor a hot contest with the' Fusion lata forces, whom they believed were about to arrive by railroad. A special force of one hundred and twenty men was de tailed to stand guard on the balcony fronting State street. ost before tbe arrival of the Fusion Legis lature on the sidewalk below this balcony, the force was ordered into the Hall of the House, where they were drawn up in military order and divided Into squads. General Chas.

Mat-tucks, of Portland, waa in command of this contingent, and he appointed Major A. Benson, of Portland, as his Adjutant. When the zuard were about to move ont to the balcony. General Mattucks commanded them to break step, fearing that the measured tread of ao many men would be heard by the Fusiouists on the side-walk, three hundred feet distant. So when tbe men went out they broke step, and suc ceeded la making no unnecessary noise.

They were all armed wita revolvers, and from their olavated point in the lofty balcony could have guarded the steps leading from the State- bouse against a force of ten times their own number. When the Fuslonlsta departed the vigilance of the guard was not relaxed. Never In the ntlre period of this remarkable condition of affairs was tbe State-house more strictly guarded. Governor Davis has placed the defense in eharge of Major J. E.

Nye, who had been General Chambcrlaintt Assistant Adjutant, although Major Nash was nominally in command of the police force. Fusion Governor Smith eatd this evening that there was a probability his Government would be recognised by Congress as the only lawful authority In Maine. The intention of of himself and other Fusion leaders waa to act with deliberation. There waa no occasion for hasty action. In a few days he should issue a proclamation giving tbe true' version of the political" situation: The Herald's Blddeford special says the Blddeford Light Infantry received orders early this morning to be in readiness to go to Augusta at a moment's notice.

Fifty men volunteered to Join the company if allowed. This order greatly augmented the interest and excitement here. GROVE KENNEDY. His Seconal Trial Bearaai at Iagnsuaare, Kenfaeky. ivaciAl smraTca to turn kmq.

Tbe DipIosBUMIe Service) Got a general shsking-up to-day, and tbe En glish and Russian Missions, long vacant, have been filled by a series of promotions from among those already prominent In diplomacy.

The two prominent Missions, England and Russia, have actually gons begging, and have been offered to at least a dozen persons, and declined. This for the reason that the appointment would probably last only a year, and as a new Minister does all the entertain ing in the first year of his service, it would cost more than a year's salary to keep up the dignity of the nation for six months. After scraping around generally to find patriots to spend their money eolelv for official honors, and encountering a succession of failures, the President has detailed those in the service to ehsnra their stations. James Russell Lowell, Minis ter to Spain, is sent to England, and Lucius Fairohlld, United States Consul -General at Paris, is sent to Spain to relieve Lowell. Foster, of Indiana is transferred from Mexico and sent to Russia, and Phillips H.

Morgan, of Louisiana, is to relieve Foster at Mexico. Morgan is a Republican, and was one of Kel-logg's udges daring the letter's Gubernatorial reign in Louisiana, but was subsequently sent to Egypt by Grant under an arrangement with the Khedive to act as some sort of Judge there, where he now Is. No appointment has yet been made to succeed Fairohlld as Consul-General at Pans. The place Is one of the best Consulates in the service, at the most attractive Capital In Europe, and there will be plenty who will ask for it. It la a Trite Saying-.

Hereabouts, and a very true one withal, that if an applicant for office wants to insure suo- he must see to it that the President makes him no promises. If he does, the chances are ten to one against the offloe-seeker. A fitting exemplification of this idiosyncrasy on the part of the President is seen in the selection of a Governor for Utah Territory. Three weeks ago the President told General Charles Ewing (General Tom's brother) that he Intended to send hie name to the Senate for this place. Meanwhile Governor Emory, tbepresent incumbent, eame on here, and made a hard fight to be reappointed.

when the President got in one of his hesitating moods, and promised Emory that he should retain his place. This promise was Emory's doom. To-day the name of Ell H. Murray, of Kentucky, was sent In. Murray la now the principal proprietor and manager of the Louisville Commercial.

He la a lawyer by profession, having completed, his studies after the cloee of Jie At the first call for troops in 1861, he was living with his parents in Breckinridge County, Kentucky, and although but eighteen years of age responded. He assisted In raising, organizing and equipping the Third Cavalry, and despite his youth waa made Major of the regiment. Tbe Cenaaa Appatatmssla. The President sent to the Senate to-day tor confirmation the list of persons he has selected to act as Supervisors of the Census In the sev eral States. Not one-third of the number are Democrats, and there Is a lively howl in the Democratic camp, and general dissatisfaction Is expressed.

Some of the Senators most grievously disappointed say that the Senate will reject a good many of those selected un less the President is more partial to tbe Democracy; but the chances are that the hot heads will cool off, and that the whole list will be oonflrmed. The Ohio list la the same ss telegraphed the EnQDrsaa a few nights ago, with but two changes. Frank Merrick, of was taken off at the last moment-because of a dozen or more protests against his selection, which came to the President by telegraph- from Columbus. M. M.

Hobart, of Cleveland, was also taken off. because be didn't care to serve. Bill Blekham succeeded in getting his man, John Henry Thomas, selected in the Second District. The Seaate Gnawed all day on a bill which la speciously alleged to be for the more humans treatment of cattle In transit from the West to the East. On its face it looks like a flrst-oiass job.

It provides for a patent car for transporting animals, and tbe animals shipped in such cars shall be rested seven hours after having trav eled twenty-eight. The rotund Davis, of Illi- uoia. Innocently remarked that It looked to him as 11 the bill waa In the interest of some patent. No action waaaken. Tt Hana.

There was no event In the House. The Dis trict of Columbia Committee got the Boor after two o'clock, and held it for the consideration of District aflilrs until adjournment. Previous to that Judge Kelley, of Pennsylvania, offered a resolution to the effect that tt Is unconstitutional for the President or Secretary of State to negotiate a commercial treaty. He got more than a majority vote for It, but not two-thirds. Kelley's object is to stop Everts, who is Inclined to revise on his own book the Canadian reciprocity treaty.

He thinks Congress, and not the Secretary of State, should do the business. riaaaaetal Bills. The consideration of the bill reported by the Comenlttee on Banking and Currency, to re quire National Banks to maintain one-half of their lawful reserve In gold and silver coin, will be resumed In the House to-morrow daring the morning hour. Mr. Buckner Is entitled to the floor to move the previous question, but has agreed to yield to Mr.

Chitten den, of Nsw York, to reply to the speeoh mads last week by Mr. rnoe. or lowa, on tne -let well enough alone" policy. Mr. Chittenden favors the bill, and after briefly advocating its passage will devote himself to replying to Mr.

Price. Tfca Apprepriatieai Bills. Tbe Houae Appropriation Committee are slowly, but surely getting the Appropriation Bills ready for the House. The Indian Bill will be reported on Wednesday, and followed right up with the Army Bill a few days later, and them the Navy and Postal Bills. Sundry Civil Bill, whloh generally eomea last, la now likely to be put In ahead of the Legislative Bill, aa this fa In the hands of Atkins, who la very sick, and not likely to be In the House for business for a month to eome.

Tne uommiuee are going to maae up those bills about as they were passed last year, aa there la now little or no debateable ground for further reduction. The only question now is to see now far the members will agree to forego debate and allow them to pass with out protracted debatea, which the Committee will endeavor to prevent. Joha O. Thorn pee a Say That if the New York Legislature passes the bill to elect Eleotots by Oonitreaadonal Districts, no Eastern man can be thought or in connection with the Presidential nomination. In such event, he thinks that either Thurman, Heudricksor David Davis wlU be the nominee.

He admits that Thurman la still In tbe Presideotlal race. Postmaster James; of New York, who is here, says that he does not think the New York Legislature will pass the bill. TUden'a friends here are also of the same Opinion; They say that to pass the bill would' be an evidence of Republican weakness. The Bepnblleana who favor the bill aay this view of the esse la the strong argument why the bill should be passed. Who Snail LeaMf tae Heeta.

Juet now tbe Democrats are considerably demoralized touohing the selection of one to lead their battle ia the National canvas. There is a good deal' of sentiment for Seymour, but it la ephemeral and without deep root. TUden feared by many, hut even these believe he will force his own nomination or raise a row. The Hancock boom baa died a boomin'. Thurman is seldom mentioned.

Bayard's availability ia only casually discussed but his nomination la not expected. because of Western antagonism.

Senator Pendleton gave a large dinnerparty Saturday night to members of the Supreme Court and a few Senators, Including Judge Thurman. Hon.

Last evening they called upon Secretary Sher man together. This sudden and unusual af fection between men formerly very distant toward each. other, gives rise to the conjecture that there Is something between them of sto- penaoua importance, Aa Important Deeleloai To Inmates of National Soldiers' Homes was made by the United States Supreme Court to day. The case upon whloh the decision hung was one Involving the right of inmates of a Soldiers' Home to draw and use pensions Dom ing to them from the Government. Tbe Court decided they had such right under the Arrearages of Pensions Law.

The Inmates of the Soldiers' Homea are entitled to considerable soma of money, and the management of the Home held the money should be collected and controlled by the institution. The soldiers went to law for their rights, and now the United States Supreme Court decides in thetr favor. A Gated Example far Coagi eae.
