Astronomical Discoveries by Lord ROsses
Telescope. At meeting of the Royal Irish
Academy, in Dublin, on the Both of January,
DR.. Robinson announced some interesting facts
in astronomy, which the gigantic telescope OF
Lord Rose has recently brought to light. These
relate TO a remarkable planetary nebula, Her.
schel's figure As This looks hike an oval disc,
reminding one of the planet Jupiter; but it APP
pears now to be a combination ottwo distinct bod.
les In both these the centre consists OF cluster of
toerably large stars; in the first, surrounded by
a vast globe of much smaller ones-in the other
by flat disc OF very small stars, which, when
seen edgeways, had the appearance OF ray.
This nebula, recently observed through Lord
Rosse's telescope, has the surrounding globe.
A remarkable proof OF the defining power of this
vast instrument exists in the fact that DR.. Rob-
inson saw whit the companion of the we'll known
Gamma Andrommedae, or two blue stars, which
he had never before seen. 1t was discovered by
the celebrated Strive, with the great Pulkova
Refractor, and is very severe test The ring
of Saturn, by the help of Rosse's telescope, shows
Irregularities, which are most probably noun
tains, on its eastern sides. 1t is remarkable that
this character OF Saturn's ring was anticipated by
La Place, though no telescope existing in his day
was sufficiently powerful to make the discovery

AMERICAN ARTICLES ABROAD The Lon
don correspondent Of National Inteligencer,
says
lis curious to observe, on ramble through a
few Of The principal streets otLondon, how many
more articles are advertised OF "American" orr
gin than were to be met with even two years
ago. American Newtown Pippns and other
varieties OF American apples are exhibited in the
fruit shops; every shoe shop has display team
ercan over shoes; ''Philadelphia, Albany, and
other American Aes'' advertised at the tav-
erns and eating houses; "American biscuits are
found in every cake shop; "Amencan cheese"
in the appropriate places, and ''American rocking
chairs, "American wooden clocks and Sam
erican baby-jumpers" have their various places
of sale Once | saw "Mint Juleps and other
American drinks" advertised in a window; there
are regular agencies for the sale OF Wenham
Ices" there are two, if not more, regular impor-
ters Of American books, and the American star
spanged banner floats from many tall mast in
the crowded docks and rivers.

WHO IS OLD. A wise man will never rust
out. AS long as he can move and breathe he
will be doing something for himself, his neighbor
or for posterity. Almost to the last,year of his
life, Washington at work. So were Frank
lin, and Young, and Howard and Newton. The
vIgor of their lives never decayed. No rust mar
red their spirits. 1t is foolish idea to suppose
that because we are old we must lie down and
die Who is old' Not man OF life and energy
not day laborer in science, art or beneolence ;
but he only who suffers his energies 10 waste
away, the spring OF life to become motionless, on
whose hands the hours drag heavily, to whom all
things wear the garb OF gloom. Is he old? should
not be asked; but is he active? can he breathe
freely and move with agility! There are scores of
gray headed men we should prefer in any impor-
tant enterprise, to those young gentlemen who
fear and tremble at the approach OF shadows, and
turn pale at Lion in their path.

MUSICAL Horse. A correspondent of the
Providence Journal furnishes the following inter-
esting account of musical horse:
"a physician called daily TO visit patient op
posite to my place of residence We had piano
in the room, on the street, on which young ladv
daily practiced for several hours in the morning.
The weather was warm, and the windows were
open, and the moment the horse caught the sound
1.-THE piano, he would deliberately wheel about.
cross the street, place himself as near the win
dow as possible, and there, with ears erect, and
eyes dilating, would he quietly stand and listen
till his owner came for him. This was his dailv
practice. Sometmesthe young lady would stop
playing when the Doctor drove up. The horse
would then remain quietly in his place, but the
hrst stroke of key would arrest his attention and
hall a dozen notes would invariably call him
across the street. witnessed the effect several
times. One other remarkable circumstance was.
that the Doctor was very worthy and prominent
member OF the Society OF Friends

INFIDEL PREDICTIONS. Some years ago, in
Virginia, every man was compelled TO pay for the
support of the Christian Religion. When this
law was repealed, and Christianity was thrown
upon the affections and resources gifts friends for
support, an Inhdel statesman OF the first emf
hence in the land, remarked "the death blow is
given to Christianity. In fifty years from this
time there will not be bible in the United States
In fifty years from that time, it was announced
by the American Bible Society, that every fani-
ly in the United States was supplied with the BIZ
bic. Such is the onward progress OF Religion,
and such is the fulfllment of infdel prophecy
Christianity was never advancing with such rap
id strides as at the present moment. Arrange.
nents are now in contemplation, which will tn
doubtedly result in speedily placing the Bible In
every family on the globe willing TO receive it,
and able to read its contents.
