LescarbRulrs Telescope and the New
....H. Pluuet, Id. f.... ..H .

The telescope with which DR.. Lescarbault
discovered the new planet nearer the sun
than Mercury, is very small. Its object
glass is only four inches in diameter, with q
focal length of less than five feet, and it is
mounted on wooden frame which admits
only of two motions, one horizontal, the
other vertical. 1t has msgnifying power
of $50 times. From DIR. Lescarbaults obser-
vations, Nj. LIE Yerrier concludes that the new
planet revolves around the sun in 1907 days;
that the inclination of its orbit is 10 l0 the
longitude ofits ascending node l20 So and that
its mass is one-seyenteenth that of Mercury.
This mass is much too small TO account for
all the anomalies which have been observed
in the movement of Mercury; the SUPPOSE
ton is therefore strengthened shat there is a
group of these planets. The new planet can
never be more than go from the sun, as seen
from the earth, so that it can never set more
than half an hour after sunset or rise more
than half an hour before sunrise. This, with
its very small size, renders it easy for us to
understand why it has never been observed
before J.. ... ... .

LABOR, INDUSTRY AND WEALTH OF Swiss
CITY.-A correspondent thus writes from
Geneva, Switzerland "The whole popula-
ton appears to be prosperously engaged in
some kind of Industrial occupation, chiefly
in jewelry and matchmaking. Women and
children even are able to earn money by some
particular branch of these manufactures.
Children of ten years earn five or six francs
a week. and after little time as much as ten
or more. Many girls support themselves by
painting on enamel, or by engraving and al
most every member of family contributes a
portion toward the common stock. Upward
of 10000. watchesare manufactured annually
by the 5000 workmen engaged in the busi-
ness. The town has besides sixty goldsmith s
shops. Trinkets and jewelry are no where so
cheap as in Geneva. A good journeyman
earns from thirty to forty francs week. Di-
vision Of labor is carried to great extent,
since about eighty different machines unite
their labor in the production of watch.
Perhaps there is no provincial town in Eu-
rope having greater amount of wealth. !
have seen an estimate made by one of the
bankers, which gives eighty-one millionnires
in apopulation of less than 10000, the inhab-
itants of the Canton. l- 200 q. '.Hu.r.

SOUTHERN INsoLENcE TO THE NORTHERN
UNIoN-SAvERs.-Even black-mail Hambleton
is becoming ungrateful to Northern Union
saving Democrats, and says in late number
Of his paper; "High prices for board, the hot
climate, the fear of yellow fever and South
ern assassination has rid the convention and
the city of many annoyances. Such is the
dread of assassination by the Yankees that it
is almost impossible to toll them from their
quarters after nightfall They retire early,
pray for tho nomination of Douglas and their
immediate delivery from so hot climate.
They try very hard to act like Southerners,
by eating rice and turnip salad but invari-
ably retire from the table with potatoes and
lump of salt in their pockets .t.i

A Japunese Example for Roger A. Pryor.

A popularity of the people of Japan is
their contempt of death, and a consequent
proneness to commit suicide. We have read
an exemplifcation of this, which contains "a
useful suggestion to the Virginia braves
Two officials jostled each other accidentally
on the palace steps. One, who was rasci-
BILE, demanded satisfaction, which the more
peace-loving dignitary gave in the shape of
an ample apology. This did not suit the
other, who was "spoiling for fight" See
ing that the peaceable party would not be
provoked into a duel, what does our irate
friend do but draw his own sword and chop
himself up in the most approved stylel As n
matter of honor, his adversary was obliged
to follow the example, and let daylight into
himself in like manner. Will not Mr.. Pryor
try this plan when he runs against another
Mr.. Potter?

PRICE ONE CENT.

A PeriIous Feat-A Ragged Streamer Re-
moved from the spire Of the Philadelphia
State-house. .,
|. The attention Of a very large number of
persons was attracted the other morning, to
the movements of one of the workmen who
has recently been employed in painting the
State-house steeple in Philadelphia. The flag
on the main building had become entangled
with q rod at the extreme top of the steeple,
far above the ball and vane. For months the
ragged remains of the streamer have been
fluttering from the rod and IL seemed proba-
BILE that they were destined to remain there
until they should gradually rot away and
blow of. This morning the workman alluded
to, placed ladder from the topmost scaffold-
ing on the steeple, and by means of this he
mounted upon the extreme top of the spire.
By holding on to the rod he was enabled TO
maintain his footing, although the large gilt
ball was just above him. With one hand he
held on to the rod below the ball, and he then
made long reach over and around the ball
and having obtained hold above, pole was
handed up TO him, and by means of it he
patiently disentangled the fragments of the
flag and they were blown away by the wind.
All this was accomplished with one hand
nearly two hundred feet above the ground,
while he had but mere toehold on the sum
init Of the spire and he was only able TO hold
on by reaching over the ball. After accom-
plishing the task the intrepid man descended
in the same manner that he had mounted,
and with as much apparent GOODNESS as though
he was creeping from a hay NOW down to
barn floor. The lockers on gazed with breath
less attention at the feat, and very liberal
sums were named as insufficient to induce the
manners to attempt the same exploit. III

Sad Sequel 10 the story Of the Stsge-srruck
ID. . Ts. Toledo Girl. .. .H...


We have already mentioned the case of Il
girl who left her home in Toledo to follow, as
It was said, the stage, but had disappeared
near Detroit, and of her subsequent discovery;
but it seems painful fact, heretofore un-
known, was connected with her disappear
ance, which Detroit paper thus explains:
]. b. Howard, painter, of Toledo, mar
ried man, quite intimate with her family, in
gratiated himself into her affections, repre-
sented that he disliked his wife, and would
get divorce and marry her-Myra Young
The confidence the young girl of eighteen
years reposed in him was taken advantage of
as early as July last, and the criminal inter
course continued till certain appearances in
dicated that to stay at home would result in
the revealing of the disgraceful intimacy; nc
cordingly she stole away from home on the
10th inst, arrived here, remained at the Rus
sell House over night, and the next day the
llth went to Pontiac, where she has since
remained. She bore the name there of Mrs
Howard. Howard visited her on the 18th
and remained two or three days. His heart
lessness will appear the more detestable when
it is known that he was in the confidence Of
the family, was in the constant habit of visit
ing them, and actually assisted (apparently)
in endeayoring to find traces of the missing
girl. .. ...I ..f.. t..Hirt .r .'

.YEXTRAORDINARY ENDURANCE OF THE HUMAN
FRAME.---Few fully realize what the human
frame can endure until it is fairly taxed. Sell
dom has n better test been made than in the
Arctic expeditions During the voyage in
search of Sir John Franklin, it was asoer-
tanned that the maximum weight proper for
a man was 220 lbs; and of that weight 8 lbs.
per diem was consumed by each man, for food
meat, while the other pound comprised his
spirits, tea, cocoa, sugar, tobacco, and fuel
for cooking. Upon this estimate il was found
that, for hundred days journey they could
march ten miles per diem, and endure with
impunity a temperature of so degrees or 80
degrees below the freezing point.

A Remnrlsable scientific Fact Revealed.

A very remarkable fact comes out in con-
nection with the volume of Lord Brougham's s
Mathematical and Physical Tracts just
published by Messrs. Griffin. One of the
papers, on the subject of light and colors, was
published in the philosophical Transac-
Society contained remarks on the effect of
exposing plate of ivory stained with nitrate
of silver to the rays of the spectrum, and
also on the result of submitting the plate to
the rays passing through a small aperture
into a dark room. These suggestions were
considered by Sir g. Blagden to relate more
to art than to pure science, and were accord
ingly omitted from the published copy. Had
they appeared, it is morally certain that they
would have led to the immediate discovery
of photography, fifty years earlier than its
actual introduction In spite Of its abstruse
nature, a new edition Of the volume was re-
quired in a week. ... p. g,H SOB POO .'.fr .

LADY MoNTAGU's LETTERs.--The writer in

conclusively that the present form of her

The PRINCE OF WALES SEDUcER.- Lady
Clara Vane, says one Of our foreign ex-
changes, has begun suit against the Prince
of Wales for seduction under the promise of
marriage. The Prince is coming to America
to avoid the Penalties of his conduct Is
this the result of the painfully pious rearing
of the young Prince; or has the rein been
held so tightly that, when once loosed, he
has gone too freely into dissipation? A Sc
ducer of women at nineteen is an accom-
plishment not unworthy of Young America.

MODE OF DETERMINISG DAMPNEss.-The fol-
lowing rule is given for determining whether
a house or room is too damp to be occupied
with safety: Put a quantity of quicklime
freshly burnt ina vase and expose it uncoy-
cred in the house or room after shutting the
doors and windows. If at the end of twenty
hundredth it is safe; if more than one-hul-
dredth, it is very unsafe Between these two
extremes it is more or less healthy.

CAUSE OF THE VOLCANOES OF MEXICO.
Geologists have hitherto supposed that the
volcanoes of Mexico were produced by eleva-
ton; Humboldt in particular sustained this
view, basing his theory on the supposed fact
that there were no traces of lava streams pro-
ceeding from the craters. NJ. H. de Saus-
sure, however, who recently ascended the
peak of Orizaba, has found streams of lava
radiating from the crater on every side. He
considers that the volcanoes of Mexico were
formed by volcanicaccumulation entirely.

Inc Russian correspondent OF the London

AT Moscow a physical phenomenon has
been recently observed, such as would have
given rise to the creation of whole cycle of
fantastic myths in the times of the worlds
infancy. We learn from paragraph in the
leading paper of that city that, at quarter
past ten, on the nights Of the first and second
Of March, star to the southwest of the
Great Bear suddenly commenced to wax
larger, assuming, at the same time, the color
OF iron at red heat, but without the appear
ance Of any sparks or rays. In this condi-
ton the star appeared until half-past eleven,
varying in the intensity of its light, and at
tanning the size nearly of the half-moon. A
little before midnight the dimness began to
increase, and at twelve o'clock the star had
entirely disappeared, Ia its stead a sort of
black speck was to be noticed by the light of
the stars, which were unusually brilliant that
evening. 1t remains for the astronomers to
describe, and the poets to sing, the destruc-
tion of the luminary, which, for ought we
know, may have been the abode of a race su-
rior to our own, u % I'll .
