improvements, SAYS: "Had the states
men OF Virginia, in the days of Jeffer-
son and his SUCCESSORS, down, we may
say, TO the election of Abraham Lin
coin, used their enormous influence
with the General Government for the
establishment of u national system of
internal improvements, who can now
paint the picture OF what Virginia
would have become by tile present
time? Her rivers deepened, her noun
tains tunueled, railroads intersecting
her length and breadth like network,
her minerals developed, her water pow
er utilized, her soil enriched, her land
scape beautitied by works of industry
and art, her villages become towns,
her towns. cities, her fertile fields filled
with luxuriant crops, and her very
mountain sides covered with hanging
clusters of the purple wine grape; mil
lions of bold freemen would tread her
soil and bid defiance to a world in
arms. While now she sits amid her
ruins covering at the clank of her
chains, trembling at the voice and foot
steps of her oppressors, and brooding in
silent despair over her desolation."

FoR some time past a good deal has
been said on the question Of the con-
tinuance of sensibility after beheading.
The French newspapers gave an afir-
native statement in the case Of the gull
lotining of that brutal murderer, Le-
marie. NJ. Bonnafont has In eonse-
quence brought out the results of the
experiments performed many years
since by him in Algeria, which are In
direct refutation of the popular belief.
On the occasion of the decapitation of
the two Arabs, he adopted means to
prevent any further loss of blood i'm
mediately after the heads were cut of,
and then, in one case the name of the
Cefunct was shouted in the ear, through
a small speaking trumpet, and in the
other a sharp probe was Introduced into
the ear. In neither instance was there
the slightest movements of the eyes or
Of any muscle of the face or change of
color OF the skin. This writer regards
as fabulous the numerous statements
to the contrary, including that of the
blush on Charlotte Corday's cheek, at-
ter the head had been separated from
the body by the guillotine. He points
out, also, the want Of analogy between
the reputed retention of the senstbility
by the decapitated head, and the fact
that many domestic fowls are able to
walk about some time after their heads
are cut of, as shown in the expert
ments OF Aldini and Eugene Sue.

they are not Of any great depth in the
neighbOrhOOd of cOntinents thus the
Baltic, between Germany and Sweden,

between Venice and Trieste, l30 feet.
The greatest depth Of the channel be-
tween France and England does not ex-
csed 800 feet, while to the southwest of
Ireland, where the sea is open, the depth
is more than 2OO0 feet. The seas to the
south Of Europe are much deeper than
those in the interior. In the DarrOwest
part Of the Straights of Gibraltar the
denth is only 1000 feet, while a little
more 10 the east it is 5000 feet. On the
coast Of Spain the depth is nearly 5000
feet. At 80 miles south of Nantucket
south Of Cape Cod no bottom was
found at 1000 feet. The greatest depths

interest to your readers who notice
weather reports from the west, I will
state that in my experience as a tele-
graph operator, for the past eighteen
years, ] have noticed that nine out Of
every ten changes in weather came from
the west. | Grst noticed this while IN
baltimore. Oyster dealers in Cincinnati
advised their correspondents Ia Balti-
more Of any change 10 weather in Cincin-
GGti. Eighteen hours afterward We
would experience the same change at
Baltimore. During three years service
ia the Baltimore telegraph office, l no.
tlced that but one storm came in any
other direction than from the west, and
that was the day sftsF the great battle of
McCIsiiaa before Richmond. The great
est and fiercest storm of wind and rain
L ever experienced came direct from the
south and upon tAe hypothesis, about
that time going the rounds OF the press,
fhat great stoTIa followed a great bat.
tie, concluded that Mcclellan and Lees
artillery bad something to do in sending
US that storm.
"Sinee coming to Cincinnati have
noticed that all changes in the weather
are first fglt at ST. Louis. Twelve hours
aiterwsTd we experienced the same
change here. In proof Of my theory, I
will state that at St. Louis at three
O'Clock this afternoon the thermometer
Indicated a change Of about fifteen de
grees, the mercury falling from sixty to
forty-hNe degrees, and snow falling.
According TO my theory, Tomorrow
morning, about daylight, the same
change will be experienced here, and by

The change in the weather arrived a
little before the time fixed by the old
t-iagfapher," but we can hardly expect
i'm prophecy the exactuess OF mathemati-
cal calculation. A series of observations
Of the weather, made at aXed hours, at
various points in Europe and America,
-nd carefully recorded and analyzed,
would not only be deeply interesting but
Of great value. We might learn from
the Pacific coast and tbe lonely stations
in the mountains and deserts, of the
coming Of storms, and the ships on either
shore Of sue Atlantic might be warned
