How RAIN Is FoRNED.-To understand the
philosophy of this phenomena, essential TO the
every existance of plants and animals, few
facts derived from observation and long train
of experiments must be remembered. Were
the atmosphere everywhere, at all times, at g
uniform temperature, we should never have
hail, rain or snow The water absorbed by it
in evaporation from the sea and earth's surface
would descend in al imperceptble vapor, or
cease to be absorbed by the air when it was
once fully saturated The absorbing power of
the atmosphere, and consequently its capabili-
ty to retain humidity, is proportionably greater
in warm thaE in cold air. The air near the
surface of the earth is warmer than it is in the
region of clouds. The higher we ascend from
the earth the colder we find the atmosphere.
Hence the perpetual snow on every high noun
tain in the hottest climates. Now, when from
continued evaporation the air is highly satu-
rated with vspor-though it be inyisible-if
its temperature is suddenly reduced by cold
currents descending from above, or rushing
from higher TO lower latitude, its capacity
to retain moisture is diminished, clouds are
formed. and the result is rain. Air conden-
ces as il cooIs, and, like sponge filled with
water and compressed, pours out the water
which its diminished capacity cannot hold.
How singular, yet bow simple is such an ad-
mirable arrangement for watering the earth.

NEw YORK CIrY.-The Tribune draws the
following master sketch of the metropolis of
the New World It is gloomy as o Rem
brandt
Ten thousand hardened and hopeless female
outcasts swarm the street at night two thou
sand children, under the guise of peddIerS,
from the ages Of ten to sixteen, penetrate eve
ry public building, store and office in the city,
to beg, steal, spy for burglars, and on their
account practice those vices which cannot be
named i'll respectable language Eve thousand
great and small gamblers prey upon the cred
ulous and the infatuated, standing all day at
the doors of their deus in Broadway, as well
known in person and profession as the mayor
himself ten thousand lazy, drunken, thieving
short boys, killers, roughs, and rowdies Of
other names, lounge on the rum-cursed cor
ners of the streets making day disgusting
night hideous, and travel dangerous to all who
can be suspected Of having respectabiity or
money thousands of emigrant swindlers, mock
auctioneers, lottery dealers, policy hackers
pick-pockers, hall thieves. burglars, wharf-ratS
area-sneakS, pimps and vampires, practice their
knaveries as openly and with as little fear of
punishment as though they were engaged in
the most virtuous and legitimate of human
pursuits The swell mob of London, flying
from the Argus eyes of real police, and the
uncomfortable felons of San Francisco, expatri-
ated by the bullet and the hemp of the vigi-
lance committee, are received here with open
arms, parade our streets, not only under the
liberation but the protection and personal
friendship of the police, carry our primary elec
tions. and fill high places in nominating COM
mittees. On every hand we have vice and
crime, and spleGdor crime vice, rum and
beggary. Here, in the most fashionable far
b0uLg, is the Crockford's of New York there,
between the palatial residences of millionaire
and divine, is the maisor de jois Of woman
whose dress is the most brilliant, whose equi.
page the most costly, whose appearance is the
most stunning of any of the gay butterflies,
| virtuous or vicious, whose beauty and wealth
add glitter to the opera, or sunshine to the
promenade. Within a bow shot of these pala-
ceS is the other side of the world for bro
cade rags for diamonds, dirt for Johannis-
berger, whiskey for Aspasias, drabs, with
here and there some poor, starving wretch,
| painfully enacting the Song of the Shirt,
her beseiged virtue gimnering in the misery
of this tangible hell, like the tabled jewel in a
duughll.

adopted new test of party orthodoxy in that
State. Any man who voted for or defends the
expulsion of Slough from the House for strik-
ing Caldwell in the face on the floor and while
that body was in session, is unfit for fellowship
among the Shilalahs. The Cleveland PLATA
dealer boasts that ssnot democrat voted for
the expulsion of Slough, no not one. A crazy

&c ResolUed, That experience has demonstra-
90 ted that square timber rafting is losing bu-
ff sness, and clear waste of the productions
20 of the country. Besides the great loss of
's the best part OF the log in juggles and chips,
&c experience proves that it involves the loss
20 also of the timber actually got to market.
's for in no period of five consecutive years
g have the manufacturers of square timber
E GO received more for their products than they
\ " expended in work and labor, and in taking
90 them to market.''
/ The above is one of the resolutions passed
by the log men at Lock Haven on the 2Ist ult
Here is an acknowledgment in effect that the
ogging and square timber business come in
contact with each other-just what has always
Gsen contended by those opposed to log float
i1g. If they conflict, one or the other must
suffer by an unrestricted continuance of both,
anil no one win be at a loss to determine which
1t all be. By tho floating of loose logs. the
salty of every raft that descends the river is
moe or less endangered. The only couclu-
sion I'VE can arrive at then, is, that our Lock
Hs'en neighbors wish to sscrush out'' the raft-
ingbusiness-to destroy the lumber and square
timse business. They say sSthe old system of
lum,er is foo expensive, too hazardous, and
tify he risk incurred and are in a Sorrowful
state of mind about the 'sgreat loss of the best
partof the log in juggles and chips,'' Well,
our leople ale willing to sustain the ssgreat
loss f the juggles and chips,'' and to run the
risk # making the, business s'remunerativc, -
if thy were protected from the obstacles that
are thrown in their way by the log men. All
they ak-aIl they desire-is to have an open
way-rot to have the eriver filed, during fresh
cts, witr loose logs to such extent as TO
prevent be running of RATS with any degree
of safet. But, more than this-stop the
square tii6cr business, and you interfere with
ship, BRIDE, and other building requiring
large timbr- And in doing this, you impede
commerciaf'perations, clog the rapid progress
Of internal hDrovements, and do wrong to
the communy at large and to individuals.
