"We can scarcely take up religious news
paper of whatever denomination, or an agri-
cultural paper Or temperance paper, or a so.
called literary or miscellaneous journal, all
protessedly neutral in politics, and soliciting
patronage from all classes in the community,
but what you will discover deep and settled
hatred and opposition to the present Demo-
cratic administration, and the men aud mea-
sures Of the Democratic party generally, in
sidousy running through their columns,
and more openly displayed whenever an
opportunity offers to give an effectual side
thrust"
Well, all this only shows into what general
and universal contempt the present Democratic
administration" has fallen. 1t Frank Pierce and
his coadjutors can't obtain good word from any
body, its pretty thing that these effectual
side thrusts " are all richly DESIRED.

SPEAKER BANKS The Washington Star pays
the following compliment to Speaker Banks, for
the manner in which he discharged his duties
during the long session of saturday:
:" We were more favorably impressed with
the qualities of Speaker Banks as presiding
officer on that night than ever before. His
imperturbability of temper served him capt.
tai turn indeed, enabling him to drive bust
ness through with railroad speed. We had
previously witnessed display of what we
regarded as gross and objectionable partizan-
ship in his ruling, for which we were tempted
to forgive him on Saturday night, with so
much tact and energy did he then discharge
the duties of the Speakership."

Answer to Skis Philosophical Problem
No I3

Answer to Skis Philosophical Problem
- No. I3.
The effect of such q meeting would be
silence. Reasoning: 1t is well known
principle Of Philosophy that sound is
transmitted through the air by the vibra-
tions Of the same.
ssNow as these vibrations or unduia-
tions are precisely analogous to the case
of two waves formed upon the surface OF
LIQUID, there is. q point between them
where the elevation of one wave, produced
by one cause, will coincide with the de-
preston of wave formed by another
cause, and the consequence will be neither
elevation nor depression of the fluid.
When, therefore, two sounds are produced
in different places, there is point be-
tween them where the undulations will
counteract each other, and the tsOo soa,ads
may produce silence - Parker's Phi
0sophy.) 80 50.
This is the case in SKIS problem. "The
two sounds reach the ear situated at their
point, of iaterfersnce," they will conse-
queptly produce silence. if this reasoning
be true. w.
