How DISCOVERIES lave BEEN MADE.-Many
of the most important discoveries in the field
Of science have been the result of accident,
Two little sons of spectacle maker in Holland,
willie their father was at dinner CHANGED TO look
at a distant steeple through two eyeglasses,
one placed before the other. They found the
steeple much nearer the shop window. They
told their father on his return, and the circum-
stance led to course of experiments which en-
ded in the invention of abe telescope.
Some shipwFecked sailors collected some sea-
weeds on the sand, and made a fire to warm
their s~hivering fingers and cook their scanty
meal. When the fire went out, they found that
the alkali of the sea-weed had combined with
sand, ard formed glass, the basis Of all orr dis
coveries in astronomy, and absolutely necessary
to our enjoyment,
Sir Isaac Newton's most important discoveries
concerning light and gravitation, were the result
of accident. His theory and experiments on
light we're suggested by the soap bubbles
blown by a child; and the principle Of gravita-
ton, by the fall of an apple as he sat in an orch
ard: and It was in hastily scratching on stone
memorandum some articles brought him by a
wash woman, that the idea of TYPOGRAPHY first
presented itself TO The mind Of Stenefelder.

A lluuE.i, victory,

We observe by the last CoRshiuiiopaESi that
an imporlon, change has taken place in the poll

without note or comment an Liberal and unjust
article against him, nearly every assertion Of which
wo could contradict Ivy extracts from TIE editorials
Of that same Consti,uionalis,
| AS TO tho article itself, it is characterized by
even more than the Journals usual disregard Of
truth, which a, best is great enough. II is an
abortivc attempt to rob Mr.. Ryan of all honor il,

Y; tina, from this skeleton the bill was drawn
up by Justin Bu,,erfelj, of Chicago; and that
when the tax law Of the last session was before

Immediately after the election in 1872, when Mr..
r. was elected to the senate, he expressed his be-
lief that On auansemcnt might be made with our
bondholJers. on The plan of that which has been
made, for the completion of our canal; AMI MIR.
Il. Immediately proceeded to New York to consult
with the bondholJers on the subject. Naturally
one of the first men he soug't out on arriving
there, was Arthur Brun on, VITO he knew wa

attempted to be perverted by few envuus cal

StnlC Canal Trustee.

We are pleased to see that there is a
certainty that The canal will 60 on. We
observe by public notice, that an cleo
ton was TO take place on the 27th ult
for two Trustees on the part Of the bond
holders, in New York in this event, il
will become the duty of The Governor of
this State to appoint one from among our
citizens, to acl in the capacity Of Trustee,
on the part Of the State. We have heard
several gentlemen spoken of as fit and
suitable persons for the appointment, and
among them is Col. JAMES MITCHELL, Of
Rockford. We express hope that Mr..
Mitchell will receive the appointment;
and if Gov. Ford should be pleased to
appoint Col. Mitchell, it would receive
the hearty appreciation of the Nor,h--as
such is The universal sentiment of every
northern county. We are informed from
n reliable source, that there is strong
desire felt, not only in the north. but il
exists in the middle and South part of the
State, for the appointment of nep man
TO this important trust. We feel well as
sured that the Executive desires to har-
monise the people of all parts of The State
on the State trust of the canal, and Moth
ing would be so sure of eflecting such
result as the appointment OF new man
One not in any way connected with
the previous administration Of the canal.

Revolution in California.

The people of California, it appears by the Ia
,cs, news from that region, have driven out the
Mexican authorities from that enchanting coun-
| try, and set up government "on their own hook"
A republic was about being organized, with re-
preventative legislature modelled after that Of tho
| United States The revolution up to tho latest
information had been unattended with any blood
shed. An account from there says, "Thc people
informed the governor that his cxac,ons were
cruel, oppressive, and contrary to those principles
igh,ened government which prevailed among
the most intelligent and prosperous nations.
They asked Withdrawal Of cert in proclamu-
tons and laws issued by order Of the Mexican go
vernmont. They had no part in the enactment
Of those laws, aud could not nckno " ledge the
rish, of any body of men to impose laws upon
them without their knowledge or consent. The
governor treated the people with contempt, and
threatened instant death if they persisted in their
demand. Alarmed for their personal safety, the
settlers resolved to risk their lives at once in
struggle for independence The government herds
cattle, horses, &c, were driven from around the
governors dwelling or fort; scouting parties were
stationed at distance Of some miles TO cut of all
supplies, and, after lapse of few weeks, mes.
scngcrs were despatched to the fort to ascertain
the disposition Of Governor MicheItorcna and his
army. Resistance was useless, and the Governor
withdrew with his forces, leaving the country in
possession Of tho settlers, who had proclaimed it
Independent, as the Republic of California"
The revolution is said to have been accomplish

pose Of strengthening itself to encourage mmera-
