event which all of his numerous friends
will hail with pleasure. Gov. Brown is
one of, if not the most, talented sons
OF which Mississippi can boaet, and
has served his State well and faithfully

The TIectInns.

Ii Pennsylvania, though there is Il
reduction in the Radicals, they have
Coined two members of Congress
The delegation stands eighteen Radi-
Gals and six Conservatives The
Legislature Is strongly Radical, which
will insure the defeat of Senator Ed
CAR A. Cowan. In Indiana the Legis-
Iatare is largely Radical and for Con
"rcas. eight Radicals and three Con
acrvaljvcs. This is a Conservative
gain oroue The Radicals gained in
Ohio eight thousand votes on the
State ticket, the majority amounting
to about 10000. Sixteen Radicals
were elected to Congress, and three
Conservatives. This is a Conserva-
tive rain OF one member Of Con
gress, We have not seen complete re
turns from Iowa, but it is believed
that the six Congressman Of that
State are all Radicals. In the four
States of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana
and Iowa, there were forty eight
Radicals and twelve Conservatives
elected to Congress. This is Radi-
cal gain Of one, as the delegation in
the present Congress is forty seven
Radicals and thirteen Democrats.
The New York Times, in recent
article on the elections says, the re
suits of the late elections show very
clearly that the contest has been al
most precisely what it was two years
aqo. between the Democratic and
Union parties. The differences be
tween Congress and the President have
no perceptible influence upon the par
tv divisions of the last four or five
wears. Nor has the Philadelphia Con
vcntion, strong as was the impression
which it made at the outset, upon the
public mind. produced any marked eff
feet upon political organizations in the
several States where elections have
been held.

Pans. October &c, 1866 Since in the
dolorous march of history--nearly every
period Of the course is marked by trag-
edy-it is not singular that the second
great event. which reminds US Of the
Louvre. is the assassination Of Henri
Quatre By Reyaillac. The day after the
corouatioR OF lbe queen, The 18th OF
May, 1910, Henri, whose MUD seeLs to

sentiments Of his approaching fate, en-
tered ss:Ss carriage to drive 10 the house
of the Minister Sullp. At the corner Of

obliged to stop on account Ql the eroNd,
the assassin Ravaillac moanSed GU the

with knife. Instead OF flying, the muir
derer remained standing beside the coach
with his knife in his hand, ike man IN
a dream, and was easily arrested. The
horses heads were turned, aud the body
Of the beloved king carried sadly back to
the Louvre, where il lay in state for some
days. --
Ravaillac was believed to be merely
the instrument Of some more powerful
conspirators. aud the Queen and the
Marquise Of Yerneuii, the lesuits and tho
Huguenots, the Brince Of Bonde and the
Council Of Spain, were in turn suspected.
But the suspicion could be fastened upon

torture, the scaHfold, during the most
cruel punishment, constantly insisted
that he had not single accomplice.
That he acted from religious and patri-
otic motives, that he had felt himself
first inspired to the deed while listening
to sermons, and that for long time he
had been tormented by visions urging
him TO its accomplishment, that on ae-
count of the complaints he heard against
the government, he was persuaded that
the king was much disliked, and that he
should render great service to France

zone of those dangerous fanatics, one of
those bilious, morbid men, whose gloomy
imaginations are easily inflamed, and
minds concentrated upon one idea, how
ever horrible or fantastic. Such men
are more common than is always sup
posed, and are capable, single handed,
Of working immense evil in the State. "
In fact. history continually repeats them,
and as we have found in the murder of
the wounded Coligny, no slight resem-
blsnce to the attempted assassination of
Seward so in the perverted and ferocious
fanaticism of Ravaillac, we seem to re-
cognize the lineaments of Wilkes Booth.

though it were to fall through all eternity.
After falling for thousand centuries it

lutely be the same thing as if it remained
in repose.
Around this earth lies light down
like that we see on beardless boys, or on
tender peach before a rude hand has
seized it. This is the azure atmosphere
which surrounds the earth. Clouds
are cradled in 1t at an Insignificant alti-
tude. The concave form we observe in
this apparent dome is nothing but the
result of perspective. We poor, micro
scopic creatures, live at the bottom of
this down, and the sky-blue is nothing
but this atmosphere itself When we
rise towards the upper edge Of our atmos-
phere by ascending mountains or sailing
in balloon, this blue color disappears,
and we see the space is colorless. A
visit of few seconds to the moons sur
face would convince US still more thor
oughly that the blue terrestrial sky be-
longs exclusively to this atmosphere.
The moon is deprived of air, and during
its interminable days-which are fifteen
times longer than ours-instead of this
beautiful azure dome which is over our
heads, it has nothing but an immense
black, lugubrous space, in which shines
the sun, moon with varying phases, the
earth and multitude of stars.
The solar system is suspended in
equilibrium in space What sustains it :?
Nobody knows. Is itin response No,
it gravitates, or what is the same thing,
it falls. 1t falls into the infinite abyss.
1t falls at velocity reckoned at two

curved, sinuous or straight line, it can
fall through all eternity, as we have shove
demonstrated, without danger of touch

A Noble Dog.

On Sunday morning, October 2sth, the
house and outbuildings, with their con-
tents, of Alderman Block, of Frederick
ton. N. B.. were consumed by FIRE. The
Cslonidl Farmer, published in that city,
gives the following incident, which is
worthy of record, as showing the fidelity
of this noble animal:
c. 1t seems that the fire was first de-
tected by Newfoundland dog, the prop
erty of Mr.. Block. The noble brute, with
almost human instinct, tore his way into
the house by means of one of the doors,
and aroused the family by his barking
and then ran to the stable door, which he
endeavored to open, so that the horse
his almost inseparable companion, might
escape. There he remained struggling,
though every effort was made to entice
him away, and when the fire went out he
was found lying dead at his post.
A correspondent states that the dog
effected an entrance to the house by tear
ing out panel of the door with his claws,
and thus saved the lives of the inmates,
who had time to retire, but not time
enough to save anything.
