Motions of the Stars.

The Scientific American says: A re,
markable paper has lately been sent to
the Royal Society of England by Mr..
Higgins, one of the fellows. 1t announ-
ces the application of new and most
promising method of inquiry to the de-
determination of the stars motions. Mr..
Higgins tested this method by the
motions of the star Sirius. The spec
trum of this star is crossed by a number
of dark lines, and among others by one
known to correspond to bright line
seen in the spectrum of burning hydro
gen. The two spectra were brought side
by side, and due care having been taken
to magnify as much as possible any dis
crepancy which might exist, it was
found that the dark line in the spectrum
of Sirius was not exactly opposite the
bright line in the spectrum of hydrogen.
but was slightly shifted toward the red
end of the spectrum. 1t followed from
the amount of the displacement that at
the observation Sirius was receding from
the earth at rate of about forty miles
per second. When due account is taken
of the earth's Orbital motion at the time
of observation, it results that Sirius is
receding from the sun at the rate ofabout
twenty-eight miles per second, or up
WdrQ OF nine nunuTeu iullllOllS DI inlleS
per annum. If this method of eXamin-
ing Sirius, which is the nearest of the
fixed stars, should be carried into the
examination of other and remoter ones,
would be arrived at of great
value. OF course the motion
to great extent is apparent-not real
as the whole solar system is known to
be moving towards the constellation of
Hercules; and as the observations are
made on the earth, the observatory as
we'll as the observed star is in motion.

KEEP RECIPE BooK.-A correspon-
dent of Moore's Rural New Yorker
makes the following good suggestion
''In almost every paper one reads, there is
some recipe for the cure of summer COM
plaint, or q fellon, or some other of the
ills belonging to humanity, as well as
valuable recipes ministering to the bodi-
ly wants in the way of cooking, &C.,
These we all read and often say: HWelI,
I'll try that" but before we do so the
paper is lost and the recipe forgotten. 1t
not unfrequen:ly occurs that some dis
ease attacks us personally, or the stock
which We care for, and which we have
remembrance of reading a prescription
to cure; we have forgotten just what,
and therefore have to send for the doc
tor. TO ebyiate this have been in the
practice of cutting out each recipe pre-
scription for disease, cookery, etc, that 1
find in the papers and at once pasting
them in a scrap book, arranging them
under their proper heads. As, for in
stance, all about bread making under
the head of bread, all about cuts and
bruises Under such head, and 80 on, sep
arating diseases under their appropriate
names. The result is, that now when
any direction for cookery or remedy for
disease, etc, is wanted, l have it at i'm
mediate command.

Sflfftfd Poetry.
Our Childhood.
BY GEO. d. PRENTICE

'Tis sad. vet sweet, TO listen
To the soft winds gentle swell,
And think we hear the music,
Our childhood knew SO well,
To gaze out on the even,
And the boundless fields of air,
And feel again our boyhood's wish
To roam like angels there.
There are many dreams OF. .giadness
That cling around the past
And from the tomb of feeling
Old thoughts come thronging fast
The forms we loved so dearly
In the happy days now gone,
The beautiful and lovely,
So fair TO look upon.
Those bright and gentle maidens
Who seemed so formed for bliss,
Too glorious and to heavenly
For such a world as this;
Whose dark, soft eyes seemed swimming
In sea of liquid light,
And whose locks of gold were streaming
Ger brows so sunny bright.
Whose Smiles were like the sunshine
In the Spring time of the year
Like the changeful CLEANS of April,
They followed every teari
They have passed-like hopes-away,
And their lOveliness has fed:
Oh, many a heart is mourning
That they are with the dead.
Like the brightest buds of Summer,
They have fallen with the stem;
Yet, oh, IL is q lovely death
To fade from earth like them!
And yet the thought is saddeuing
To muse on such as they,
And feel that all the beautiful
Are passing fast away;
That the fair ones whom we love
Grow TO each loving breasti
Like the tendril of the creeping vine,
- Then perish where theyrest
And we can but think of these,
In the soft and gentle Spring,
When the trees are waving DER us.
And the flowers are blossoming;
And we know that Winters coming
With his cold and stormy sky,
And the glorious beauty round us
Is budding but to diei
