NOVEL SUIT.-A suit of an extraordinary
and novel character was instituted on last
evening, before Justice Lawder, in reference
TO what is termed a bear woman, advertised to
exhibit in this city to-day. From what trans
pired before the justice, it appears that she
arrived in this city yesterday, accompanied by
I. Sepulya, a Mexican, who represents him
self as her guardian, having been, as he a.
leges, appointed so by her foster parents, in
Mexico; Dir. j. w. Beach, who claims her
under contract with the above named to ex-
hibit her through this country, and two broth
ers, Theodore - S. Lent, who travelled with
them. Beach y eyes that during the day the
two brothers induced her to depart from the
Sssquehanna House, where they were stop
ping, and tracing them to the Western Hotel
had warrants issued for their arrest upon the
charge of abduction. Officers Burkins and
Jordan last evening arrested them and took
them to the Middle Station, together with the
woman in dispute, where ]. 4. Quinn, ESQ :,
appeared as counsel for Beach, and Milton
Whitney, Esq, for the brothers Lent. One of
them here presented a certificate of marriage
with the woman, alleging that they had been
married in this city, and claimed her as his
lawful wife. This was so knotty point th at
after a conference between the counsel and
justice, 1t WAS determined to postpone its solu-
ton to future day, and Lent was held in
$500 to appear and produce the woman at a
further examinaion.-Batt. Sun, Saturday.

certain term, then diminished for an equal
term. and that the interval between the
maximum aud minimum was about 5 wears.
SO that the cycle was completed in about
ten. This conclusion rested on the observa.
tlons Of Is years, which (as Col. Sabine in.
formed the British Association at Belfast)
have since been extended to 26 years, and
with the same result Now, as the light
and heat of the sun are obviously essential
to the success Of grain crops, it occurred to
Gautier, French or Swiss man of science.
to compare Schwabe's cycle of the solar
spots with the results Of the harvests in
France. as shown by the price of corn and
te found that taking the years in groups,
to eliminate accidental influences, those in
which the sun had few or no spots conceded
with the years Of abundance and those in
which the spots were numerous with years
OF scarcity. We have here, then, glimpse
OF physical cause to account for these al.
ternatlng periods Of scarcity and plenty,
which experience has forced upon the atten-
ton OF our farmers. 1t is true that the
spots of the Sun cover but very small por-
tion of his surface at any time but the de-
crement of heat in bad year is also small
compared with the whole quantity which
the earth receives from the sun and it is
not improbable that, besides causing a di.
rect loss of light and heat proportioned to
their size, spots when abundant may indicate
general enfeeblement of the heating and
Illuminating power of the V 'pole surface of
the sun.
The progress of science is constantly ad-
ding to our knowledge of the latent ties
which connect the most distant parts of ma
ture. Those minute devialions from the
normal position of the magnetic needle.
called its diurnal variation, were discovered
a hundred years ago, and gave plain indica-
tlons of solar influence. 1t was only known
within these few years that these variations
were themselves subject to variation-wcre
greater in some years than in others-and
that another class of phenomena, called
magnetic storms" sudden and seemingly
unaccountable disturbances of the needle.
disclosed themselves 1t is now found that
these are periodical also. To use the words
of Col. Sabine, there is periodical varia-
tion or inequality affecting alike the magn-
tude Of the diurnal variation, and the mag
nitude and frequency of the disturbances Of
storms, and the cycle or period of the inc
quality appears to extend about ten of our
years, the maximum and minimum being
separated by an interval Of about five years"
Perhaps by-and-by the hopes and prospects
Of the husbandman may be read in the vi
brations Of the compass.

A Candid Mind.

There is nothing sheds so fine light up
on the human mind as candor. 1t was call
ed qchitcneSS by the ancients, for its purity
and beauty and it has always won the es-
TEEN due to the most admirable of all vir-
tues. However little sought for or practic-
ed, all do it the homage Of their praise, and
ali feel the power and charm Of its happy
influences
The man whose opinions make the Deep
est mark upon his fellows; whose influence
is most lasting and efficient; whose friend
ship is instinctively sought, where all others
have proved faithless is not the man of
brilliant parts, Or hattering tongue, or splen-
did genius or commanding power but he
whose lucid candor and ingenious truth
transmits the hearts real feelings pure and
without refraction. There are other quail
ties which are more snowy, and other traits
that have higher place in the worlds code
of honor, but none wear better, or gather
less tamish by use, or claim deeper hon.
age in that silent reverence which the mind
must pay to virtue.
AS it is the most beautiful. so it is the
safest Of moral qualities. None fall into so
few mistakes-none SO free from the pain of
doing wrong, as those who walk amid the
pitfalls and miasmas, passion and errors of
our tainted life, clothed habitually with cau-
dor. The rare and comely union of pru-
dence and Of principle, Of frmnes and for
bearance, Of truth and zeal, of earnestness
Of feeling and discrimination of views, is
to be found only in minds pervaded and en-
larged by candor. To love and to seek, in
all things the truth-to choose and adhere
to before the solicitations Of passion. or the
power of prejudice, or the force Of public
opinion, or the claims OF interest or power.
whatever is right and true; to believe at ev-
cry juncture Of experience or thought, that
nothing is SO good, or desirable, or trustwor.
thy, as truth; to scent the truth amid ali
the unpopular disguises which too often dis
figure it in this world this must be safest
and best whatever we may think of it, if
God really reigns, and there is to be an
eternal distinction between truth and false
hood, right ard wrong. In nothing have
men SO vital an interest as in truth Moth
ing should We so earnestly strive to get at, OF
hold fast when obtained buy the truth,
and sell it not Green LeaUcs
