A girl in mems attire, was taken from
the Bowery Theatre, on Saturday evening
last. Onher examination, it appeared that
she had been driven from her home by the
cruelty of a step-father, and the better to
make her way through life, she changed
her dress. She has lived out in the capa-
city of a servant boy, had been a clerk,
followed boating on the Canal, driving
team, &c. She states, that situated as
she is, without friends, she prefers her
present dress, as she is more healthy than
she formerly was, and is enabled the better
to gain her livelihood. ~ Y. d. .adv.

Spots on tie Sun.-The disk on the sun exhib-
its to the telescope, at present. an unusual number
ofspots. On Wednesday, 9th instant, we were
able to enumerate eleven, one of which, a little
north Of the centre, was very large and surround
ed by an extensive penumbra. The solar spots are
not often more than thirty degrees distant, from the
sun equator; but one ofthose visable on Wednes-
day, was near the southern limb. Since that time
this spothas disappeared and several ofthe others
have separated into clusters ofsmall spots. Many
of our readers viii recOlect the similar appearan-
ces that were exhibited OH the solar disk, in 1916.
They are sometimes oferoneous size, occupying
a space of 900 miles in diameter; and are coca
sionally so mutabe as to exhibit it TO the eye OF
the astronomer, the appearance of exploding int
fragments while he lis gazing at them.--Com. Jour.
