SCIENTIFIC.

We find the following statement in the
National lntelligencer, from its London
"Mr. Faraday, in late lecture before the
Royal Institution, upon the "magnetic
forces" made the following important an
nouncement.
"a German astronomer has for many
years been watching the spots on the sun,
and daily recording the result From year
to year the groups Of spots vary. They
are sometimes very numerous, sometimes
they are few. After while il became evil
dent that the variation in number followed
IA descending scale through five wears, and
then an ascending scale through five subse-
Iquent years, SO that the periodicity Of the
variations became visible fact.
"While our German friend was busy with
his groups of sun spots, an Englishman was
busy with the variations of the magnetic
needle. He, too, was patient recorder of
patient observations. On comparing his
tabular results with those of the German
astronomer, he found that the variations Of
the magnetic needle correspondent with the
variations Of the sun spots; that the years
when the groups were at their maximum,
the variations of the needle were at their
maximum, and so on through their series.
The relation may be coincdent merely, or
Iderivative if the latter then do we con-
; meet astral and rreStrial magnetism; and
new reaches of science are open to u.s."

Professor Barry, after careful examination of his

of $50 900.
1t is unnecessary to present at length the evil

pherous when the public have furnished such an
endorsement this. The cheapness of the article,
and the explanations given of its chemical action
upon the hair, the scalp, and in all cases OF
superficial irritation, fret recommended It to
the attention of the people. This was all that
the inventor desired Every bottle advertised

not be without it. Country dealers in every

produced its first flower, which opened partially

was about five clock on Thursday afternoon, Tor
il is one of tho many peculiarities OF tins plant
that it has always unoded its buds at that hour OF
the day. In color the petals were of pure white,

partaking of those of the pond-lily and the magno-
liza. The inner petals remained closed until yes
terdav, concealng host of smaller petals OF a
delicate pink color. During yesterday the flower
was undergoing change, which results in an en-
tire alteration of color of the petals from white to
pink The flower continues for about forty-eight
hours, and is Immediately succeeded by Others. A
second bud has appeared upon Mr.. Aliens plant,
and has reached the surface of the water, while
third is part way up. These flowers will be
constantly appearing for indefinite time, at the
rate of about one week; and it is probable their
size will increase as that of the leaves has done
