GA Deaths by lightning.

Mr.. B)Hdin, In note u the Academy Of
Sciences Of Paris says:
- In tue course Of the year 1871 the nuns
Der Of persons il France who died from the
immediate effect of Lightning @as 61-of
whom 81 were males, Is females. In 1868
the number was 1913. In the period from
ls..J % 1851 it was 2,3ll for the Sc old de-
par;ments of France, AMI adding l20 lor /
per year for each OF the new d4partments)
we get fer the present France. tor u period Of
80 years q total of 2,i3l deaths by lights
ming. We believe that We have shown, by
great number Of facts that the number of
persons wounded by lightning is at least four
tin es thIt of those killed Immediately, the
D,.ly category reported By the government
Hence. il results that from lS3J 10 1864 the
total number of killed and wounded was
u 600, or a mean OF 400 victims per year.
During this period the proportional num>
ber Of persons killed varied exceedingly from
one department to another. The ratio in
Lozere was > times greater than that in La
Manche. In he table which we present
showing the distribution Of the 81 deaths by
lightning in 1854. the most striking results:
the very unequal distribution bctween the
two sexes, on 2G females for 81 males
From 1854 to 1854, inclusive, there were re-
corded 967 persons killed, of which 698 were
males and 2G9 females, from which it would
seem that only the small proportion of % per
cent Of those killed by Lightning are females.
In England, the proportion is only - per
cent. This comparative immu nifty cannot
be attributed to greater exposure of men out
of doors; for it exists even among children
| less than l5 years old, among whom the ratio
| Of female deaths !. only lG6 per cent, and
we may add that, in a great number of cases
! in which the Lightning fell among groups OF
| persons of both sexes, there Was decided
immunity shown for the female sex"

ONE CAUSE OF SINGULAR FIREs.-lt is a
general truth that friction evelopes elec>
tricty, aud most workmen know that a ma
chine belt at high speed by its frid ton with the
air is highly electrified 1t has for years
been a common experiment for work man
TO light gas burners by holding one hand to a
fast going belt and the other TO the open
burner. Thi. matter was curio4sly demons
strated III the Appleton Mills of this city, on
Wednesday \ strong smell of fire being
noticed, the premises were carefully searched,
and small quantity of cotton liht, inside a
belt casing, was found on fire. The lint lay
upon a beam which was within four inches oi
q belt some fifteen inches wide and mo?ing
some two hundred and twenty rd volutions a
minute In the beam was an ir ron bolt. the
head OF which was toward the belt. From
the belt 10 the bolt was passing stream OF
electric sparks, which had set the cotton lint
on fire. After attending to this case, Mr.
Motley, the agent, opened the easing of a
similar belt in another mill. The beam in
this case was fourteen inches from the belt
but the stream Of electric sparks was at once
seen jumping across tie beam, although il
had not set fire to anything. Perhaps some
of the cases of fire from supposed "spontan.
eous combustion" are due to electricity from
machinery. The subjee: is an interesting
one for investigation, and doubtless proiita

The Senate on Monday will take up the Constu-
tona part of the plan Of Reconstruction which has
been adopted by the House, and ut is underStood)
persevere in its consideration until its fate is decided
Meantime, ell manner OF amendments aud substitutes
will be proposed and voted on-snd some Of them we
think, will be adopted
II in the Senate, we should vote for every prop.
o,ition calculated if successful, to bring the plan
more nearly to what should be its twin bases-Univer-
sal Amnesty, Impartial Suffrage. Let us have all
free men equal in the eye Of tho law in this country as
they are in every other throughout Christcndom, and
we shall gladly forcgo all prescription, conscation
or other penalty disability imposed because OF the
Rebellion Enfrancbse the Blacks, and we would
have none disfranchsed, not even for day. And in
this spirit we should vote every proposal TO amend
the House measure.
Having improved it wherever we could, We should
vote for the measure as il passes TO its third reading
We cannot each have exactly what he would wish !
we must often defer TO the convictions of Others.
Whatever may be the shape Of the measure when
presented for final action we are confident that it
will be far better than failure to agree on plan Of
Reconstruction, and wo entreat every Unonist in the
Senate 10 vote Yea.
