A Mathematical Discovery.
[From tie London Times June as.]

We have great pleasure in learning
that Professor Sylvester, mathemati-
clan whose reputation is as well estab-
lished abroad as at home, has just made
a great discovery in that science. This
is no other than the proof of Sir Isaac
Newton's rule for the discovery of the
imaginary roots Of equations.
"This rule" says the Reader, "is sur
rounded with rare and curious interest.
1t was originally given by Sir I. New
ton in his lectures when Lucasian Pro-
lessor at the University of Cambridge,
and in 10Y it was published in the
Arithmetica Universalis without proof.
Maclaurin, Waring, Euler and many
other distinguished mathematician,
have attempted to demonstrate it, but
hitherto all such efforts have proved abor-
tive. A proof for a few elementary
cases was given by Professor Sylvester
in a paper published in this years vol
umee of the Philosophical Transactions.
lie has recently discovered complete
one, founded on the ordinary prin ciples
OF elementary algebra; and more than
this, theorem, which stands in precise
ly the same relation to Newton's rule as
F0urlef's theorem does to Desca rtes'
rule, the rule being deducible from the
theorepl as particular case. But this
is not all; this general theorem is itself
only particular case of still more
comprehensive one." ...
To this we may add that the rule in
question both i'll the lst and End editions
of the Arithmetica Universalis, the se-
cond of which was certainly publish ed
with Newton's sanction, stands out as
the only proposition in the book una c.
companied by proof, and thus raises a
very strong presumption that Newton
was not in possession of a solution whic b
satisfied his mind. Certain it is tina t
this rule has been Gordian knot anon, g
algebraists for the last century and n
half The rule itself used to be given in
an imperfect form in our ordinary AL
gehras, such as Woods, from which,
many of our readers may probably once,
have been taught. But, the proof being
wanting, authors became ashamed. at
length of advancing a proposition the
evidence for which rested on no other
foundation than belief in Newton's sa-
gacity. We are glad to find that Pro-
lessor Sylvester will deliver q lecture on
this important discovery this evening In
the Hall of Kings College, Somerset
house, at s p. IN. gfs,t s.e- ~

Cameron said he, that would pe ruin
to you politically, If not personally,
replied that cared not that somebody
must be sacrificed or the country lost,
and had made UP my mind to the con.
sequences of my act, Mr.. Lincoln re-
piled that he would think the matter
over, and see me next day. Next day
he saw me, as he had promised; said he
had slept over the matter, and had como
to the conclusion had; but said he
would appoint me to the Russian EN-
bassy, from which Mr.. Clay was about
to return, which would be proof OF. his
entire confidence in me. / told him
that did not want to go to Russia, but
he said I must go In Justice to myself,
and that I might resign as soon as saw
tit, after the acceptance of the mission.
We then agreed upon my successor,
Stanton, and so have brought McClel-
Ian back to the original position of mat
tiers in the army before our agreement
with him. Stanton refuses to continue
the agreement, and McC lellan must take
his proper position or resign. Mr.. S.,
do you not see that you have misjudged
me, and that I have done the only thing
1 could have done, under the circum-
stances, compatible with the Unions
welfare, dignity, and even the very ex-
istence of the country? I may suffer,
but am glad to be able to feel that the
country will be saved" r" '''',
The Illinois friend of the Secretary ex-
pressed his satisfaction at the explana-
ton, and left, wiser and, in fact, q
sadder man. He naturally felt for the
anomalous position in which his friend,
the Secretary, had been placed before
the country, without any possible means
of explaining it away, while he also felt
grieved at the unfavorable condition in
which he found the country, as regard
ed the prospect of putting down the re-
bellion. ,t. ,.-........ -:
The above reasons for the resignation
of Secretary Cameron, and the appoint
ment of Secretary Stanton, which I am
am compelled to believe correct, on ac'
count Of the source from which they
come, will account, in sone degree
for the differences between Mr.. Stanton
and Mcclellan from the commence
ment. t'sl

THE ITALIAN QUEsTIoN.-The nego-
tiations between the Pope and Victor
Emanuel have for the present ceased
without definite result. It is significant
of popular opinion in Italy that this
failure is apparently hailed with great
satisfaction. 1t is felt that the time has
not yet come when it is safe 20 make
any concessions to the papal claims, ana
1t is also considered that the liberal
cause, if it yields nothing, has gained
one step in the condescension of the
Pope to treat with one who has been ex-
communicated. ,.,5,..

The WORTH OF KNOWING How TIC
SwIM.-The London Daily NeDs of the
9th ultimo, contains some interesting
statements in regard to the loss of life
resulting from ignorance of swimming
1t appears from the Parliamentary re.
turns, that the army lost in 1854 twenty.
seven non-commissioned officers and
men on the home stations, solely from
not knowing how to swim. Orders were
soon after issued, directing that swim
ming should be taught as a military art
at all stations where facilities exist but
we are told that no provisions have as
yet been made for carrying this sensible
regulation into effect. In all the Admi.
rally training-ships 1t is, ordered that
boys be taught to swim. This rule, like
other good laws, Is often evaded. Ca.
diets on board the Britannia, at Dart
mouth. only learn the art, 1t iscomplain-
ed, by hook or crook, and most of them
leave at the end of their term without
knowing anything about it. The Royal
Humane Society, which has been organ
izea ninety-one years, has saved above
thirty-five thousand lives; last year 1t
two hundred and thirty-two, and failed
in eight cases. The NesOs says: ID
con occasion of giving its medals, it
discloses strange facts about the helpless.
ness or foolhardiness of those who have
been saved. There can scarcely be q
more striking contrast than there Is,
year by year, in the appearance Of the
rescued who could not stir hand or foot
to save themselves, and Of the rescuers,
manly and modest, who find it per-
tcctly natural and easy to go into the
wa ter-knowing we'll what to do there.
We trust the day is not far off when
every 10y in the country will learn to
swim as naturally as he once learned to
walk" teeR fa. - Is agt
This advice is quite as pertinent to our
own people as to those to whom 1t was
addressed.

Z On the fourth of July party Of i've

He alighted almost in the arms OF one
of the oarsmen, who retreated backwards
with an almost incredible rapidity,.-.
Lashing his tail and foundering his
seven feet of glistening body, the enof-

boat for few minutes. When the nsl-
