One day we are prIomiised that another twelve hour's w'ill bring about an as.sault upon01 the State I [ouse by the Fusion Ists, or on the State trieasury by the Republicans, aind thie inext (lay we are told all is quiet, and1 that the goose hangs high. Oin Thurs'day the Fusion ists senmed to he in thel last gasp, and Jin Blaine believed himnself' justified iln leaving the seat of' war and1( coining to Washington to fire off' his loaded jaw at theo Confieerate br'igadiers. According to that veracious battle Scarred veteran, peceC reignted at, Warisaw~ ; and the puLblie believed the rep)ort, for how else could this hero of a hundred fights have forsaken tIhe tented iel of' Augusta where erst while lie had p)antedI t.o seek the bub ble reputation c'en at the cannon's lBnt, alas!1 Simultaneously with the .adtvent of Field Mar'shal Blaine in Washington, comfls theO reported ar' rival of several bloodthirsty bat talions of Greenbackers in Augusta, and1( tihe miarshalliing of armed hosts al11 over the State.

In either case Mr. Blaine should go back, Hie is badly needed at home. Sunday's dispatches say that mat ter-s in Mlaine are in a more critical condition than they have been for some time. The Chronicle, a Green /bacR~ paper', feelared that the State llouse must be re-captured at all hazards. The mayor of Augusta * ~ turned over the city to the care of thme Radical faction, and a company of troops, the first that has over enltered the State llouise, filed in there at mid uighnt to repel ant.icipated Fusion at tacks. Pillsbuiry, Blood, Channing and other Fuslonists, are rep)orted te be certainly collecting tr'oops in the country towvns. Every' military comn pany in MaIne is said to be under arms. Captain Black, tihe adjutant. general of the Fusl,onists, Is drilling forces nightly in Augusta, and asks thec Republicans to "stop on me coat-tail av ye phase." The Republicans say they are going to clean out the UJnioir Hlal Legislatur-e, but Davis, thin Re. publican governor, says he wiliL;nos move actively for a few days yet. Tht people are somewhat excited at" the rehig oftroops into .the StatA utD V.sy i a ees ry, and was not a subversion of civil to military authority. The Fusionists have enat tlieir series of questiotns to the Supremne ourt, as they claim the Republicans stated the case uniirly. The Democratic city of Beddetord has invited the Fusion Leidslature to hold its sittings there, and the Beddeford treasurer has sent his taxes to the Fusion State Treasurer who was State treasirer last year, iid now refuses to yield to the Rtepublican. Governor Smith has also the seal of State, and intends to hold it. At. the preselt writing the Republi cans have iniuch the hest position. The Fusionists may flave the grit., how ever, to hold out, in which event President IInyes and Congress may be invoked as arbiters. Governor Stone, of' Mississippi, Democrat, is said to have recognized the Republican claim alit, Davis, as governor. A Dirty Dog.

'What a VlawltorSaw and Was Told There Some Discrepancies Noted. New York Stir. 1-.th, The pnblic has been treated ftre quently of late to descriptions of a glowing ch, wadter conerning , Mir. Thomas A. Edison and his workshops, at Menlo Park, N. J., and the inen tor's promises to deottonstrate beyond cavil the practicability of' tho electric light for purposes oftgeneral iilutina tiolt have been spread broadcast over the world by mneans1 of' "interview.' and other articles in various periodi eals. By way of contrast to these as sortions, it is perhaps worth calling at tentiotn to the experiences of an ntilire ly disinterested gentlemtan who visited the Edison laboratory, at. Men1tlo Park, yesterday, itd sutbseqcently paid ia visit to the oiliees of the the Edisonl Electric Light Company, in this city, both visits being in the interest o Western gentleman who wished to oL tatin the reftusal ofte Ie light for a well known city in case its practicability should be c'lenonst.rated. lie expect oid to hid it Metlo Park an extensive laboratory, where ia corps of Edison's assistants would be seen engagel in experiments under the great electri cian's directions. The tdowing ac counts published suggested visions of numlberless bottles, whose labels in dexed every chemical known to science, in the mnipul tlationl of which the visi tor expected to discover every kind of chemical apparattus that would in any way be iuselt iu clectricalexperimenti. Instead ot' all this, hie tmnd at halt dozen small buildings. with bit; few of the adjuncts he had imnagined. In onae building a single assistatat was engag in testing telepholnes of a pat tert w hich ie was intoued Wits ititendetld tor the English iarket., and had not been in trcaluced here. A young man stootd oil t few yards. and tromt the other end of the wire yelled some notsense about Matry's little lattb. wtich the obliging assistatnt inbt"tned the visitors wts heard in a tone louder than it was spoken. Tlhe instrunment was anl adap tattion of tJ.c Engllisht microphone, anid the visitor speadily learned that. in plae of lthe suppostled laboratory being tilled with eithusiastic young meta wrestling with science, its occupants were ucechanics who attende<d st.rict.lv to Iie business of mtanuthcturing attl testig this kind of telephone. The activity so flncit'ully described in the palers Wats expl latinled. The room wi"hicht he was told was the scene of (the catrbou-lmtking appeared do ser.ed, ats indeed did every room which was ex pected to be lively wit It the work of getting out the electric lamps. '"ilow tanty lights have you in oper ationt?" ie asked the guide. "Soiewhere about seveutv or e'gl. ty," was the reply. ''And how mtany lamps were lighted at the opening Ot New Year's night?' "About the same nuunbert but, we are expecting to have about eight hun dred very soon." "Wh11ltat. is causing the delay?" ''We are gettitg them out' as fast as possible, but. the glass-blower is de taining its. le can't work very fast. We have advertised for more glass blowers, but have received no answers yet." The visitors, at. the end of this con versltion, reached the building oceu pied by the glass blower, a young 'Thturingiau, who had been bred to the business from boyhood. "'low long does it take you to blow theo glass for Onto lamp?" asked thte visitotr. "I never* firured it out, but I wvill make1( otne for youi." I t took him just three minutes by the waitcht. "D)oos this entd y'our par't of thte wvork?" Was ntext asked. "Oh, n; I pit ut it ecarbonse anud seal the ltitps." "Catn y'ou tlttke a Ilmp compilet.e int htalt'ant hout'?'' "'And you work toln hout's au day?" "Oh, ves, etasily."

T.Ihe visitor' f'oundl three gent etrators instead of' otte, of' tourt-hot'se powetr each, mlainttainintg tihe lights. Two.het was told, wer'e to regutlate the circuit; thec thtird s-upplied thte pow er iln thte field. Otn asktmg the guide it he wtas sure thter'e were eighty lightts bur'niing ot' htad been at any time, he admittedA thtat he did tnot ktnow certaini 1ly, but Ito thou'rht at least thereo had beetn sixty JigYted at onte time. At that rate, a sht le htorse-power wvould mnainltainl five lights, eacht equatfl to tetn cattdles. Thte visitor' had t'eatd that tile Br'usht light in Clevelanid (Ohio) pub' lie square mnainttainedI sixteen lightts of twclve hundrtolted cantdle power each with a twelve-horse power engite, amid 1ra1 their large wvorks with it besides. Otn thte cars -c et'rning fr'om Meunlo Pairk).1e fell in witht a gentlemnan who htad been ther'e on New Year's ntight TIhis gentleman satid that he had coiunt ed every electric lamp' in operationi that night, anid that there were bt t.hiirtr-four all told, ntot intcuding a numtlber' of'coal.ell lamups thtat heclped to datzzle thte spcOtators5. At the offices of' the Edison Eketric Light Company hte wvas told that they were not y-et prte pared to sell prilvileges to anybody. Thtey were not through experinmenting, and unttil they had detmonstrated the practicability of' theiru light, through the contstr'uctionl of a regular systemi, thtey did n tot pr'opose to put it int thte mtarket. A few weeks before New Year-'s, the gentlemeni whtose obser'vationts are givent above ch-mteed to ask a p)romti nent electr-iciani whtat heo thought of the p)romtised Edison exhtibition, just thent anntounced. "I will wvrite It out for you," he r-eplied. It was as follows: "The Edison Electr'ic Light (Compa. nyV will antnonntee, with a gtrantd flout' lest of tr'umpnets, that thue lontg sought for light hats beett accomtplished. A number of latmps will be set to burn Intg, entoutgh to mtako a shtowing, and the neoxt day's newspapers wvill contain sentsational accoumnts of' the exhtibition.
