THE Sun GOING OUT.-There are now more
spots on the sun than have been seen for many
years; some of these are visible through smoked
glass to the naked eye Several stars-some of
them of great brilancy which from their ascertain
ed distance must have totally disappeared from the
sky; and the question has been raised among the
astronomers whether the light and heat of the sun
are gradually fading away. As this would be ac-
companied by the destruction of all the plants
and animals on the carth it is rather an interest
ing question. The suns light and heat are di-
minished by the dark spots at the present time
