RKxAKsABLE AsrRoSox.cAL DISCOVERY.

Inc London Daily News gives detailed history
OF one OF the most remarkable discoveries Ia
as,ronomicsi science. 1t is no less than prscti-
the brilliant red rays which are alvavs observa-
BILE ct the moment Of . total eclipse Of the SUM- Il
alec includes, which is more wonderful atm the
discovery o q method for observing changes in
the character end structure of these sierras from
day to day and from hour to hour. though no ap-
plience of science has yet or probably ever will
render them visible at any other time than the
center of total eclipse. The method of OBJ
servation is too technical for our columns. IL will
be sufficient to ssy that the INSTRUMENT used as .
spectroscope of great effectiveness, which shows
eide BY side the spectrum Of the sun proper and
the limb the sun under observation.
The first suggestion of this method Of observa-
ton was made by Mr.. j. Norman Lockyer, Ia Q
paper which be presented two years or more ago
to the Royal (Brifsh) Society, establishing quite
satisfactorily that the cause Of the suns spots
was down rush OF vapor into the suns stmos-
pbeIe, cooling or sweeping away portion Of the
ircsndescent photosphere. The priority In the
successful application of Mr.. Lockyer's sug-
ees,ion must be awarded 10 DR.. Jansen. Who
commanded the French observing expedition,
but. singular enough, Mr.. sLockysr having Oh.
tsined similar results, communicated them 10 the
French Academy, and few minutes after they
bad been stated, the letter of DR.. Jansen, an
nounciDg his conclusions, was first placed in the
bsDd\of the president of the academy.
Two interesting facts now first brought to light
deserve to be stated. II Is found that these prom
iDences, or sierras, TO which the name Of corona
has been applied by astronomers. overlap little
upon the edge OF the. suns disc. This Il phe-
nomenon which could never be observed In q total
eclipse, of COURSE Tho hitherto accapted thaory
that The orange line In the spectrum of the prom
inence examined by Lieutenant Herschel was due
TO the presence of sodium in the solar flames, is
exploded, and 1t is almost certainly established
that the flames are hydrogen flames, by the very
peculiar and extremely nice revelations OF the
specrosco2e. A single ray of solar light, SO much
more brilliant than the light Of the corona renders
it totally invisible. 1t must be set down as one Of
the great triumphs Of modern science that II can
determine certainly the character, map out and
observe changes in the form of distant light
which no instrument can render invisible.

sharp Notes from Alaska.
From tie Ala-ka Herald, Dec. II

From tie Ala-ka Herald Dec. II
The village of Three Hyrarchs. si;usted 10 the
southern part of Kadiak, has q magnificent harbor
which can hold vessels of 5000 tons and 10 which
they can come quite near the shore. The village
has about 450 houses Inhabited by creoles. This
have only enough salt and casks they can ill
lo00,0e0 Barrels in one summer.
The collectors Of Alaska find the whisky sold by
mild, end do not consider it spirituous !;
whereas the whisky sold by other traders Is found
by, the officers intoxicating and injurious. We
wonder what Mr.. Ketchum's opinion may be on
this subject?
smugglers should pack and bring their skins
and furs 10 cases, so that the quantity and quality
may not be known, as the custom house Is salts
fed by brief description Of so many cases. The
inspectors don't seem 10 care what the cases
contain.
The Aleuts are very fond of their little children
and like TO see them well dressed. The merchants
going out for trade to Alaska will do well to take
q supply Of childfen's clothing.
All competent judges favor the removal OF the
seat of government of Alaska 10 the island X adisk,
as this place Ia more central and almost as near
San Francisco as Sitka.
General Davis prosecutes inebriety in private
houses. but does not mind drunkenness at the suit
lers' stores.
Copper river sbounds In copper, large nuggets
of which are found in the stream and on the banks.
This fact should attract the attention of all in
terested in metals.
Aleutsn ladies' are said to drink before dinner
a bottle of whisky. They dine on all sorts Of
game ard venison,- and after dinner, for dessert,
relish whale oil instead of champagne.
The Aleuts find much pleasure In eating raw fish
and think il delicious.
There are in Sitka more bar rooms than private
houses.

BUBDERs BY THE Beck TAYLOR GANG IN Texas.
The San Aptonio Herald of the 10th has the fol-
lowing We learn through q source entirely reia-
Bile, Of the murder Of Capt. John Littleton aud
Mr.. stsnnsrd, both of whom left this city few
days ago, the object of Capt. Littleton's visit
here, being. it is believed, 70 get authority from
the military 10 arrest the Taylor boys" who
have recently been depredat.ng in this vicinity.
Capt Lttleton and friend riding in buggy. hsd
passed through Lavernia, travelling on the old
Gonzales road but short time. when number OF
shots in quick succession we're heard. and on in
qury and search Littleton and Stsnnard were both
found murdered. Littleton had sixteen buckshot
in him and was lying In the buggy--his sixshooter
lying by bis side was cooked, but had not been
fired. Stinnard had fallen out Of the buggy, shot
to pieces also. Nothing is positively kno xn as to
who we're the perpetrators OF the assassination.
The Tsyior boys had made threats against the life
of Captain Litiieton and the suppostion Is most
reasonable that they put their threats into execn
ton. Captain Liltleton Is well known and favor
ably too, throughout Western Texas. In the Legis-
lsture Of 1866, he represented Karnes. Golisd.
Nneces, San Parcio and the other counties Of that
district in the State Senate, defeating for that po
sition the Hon. e. J. Davis, presiding over the
Augusta convention. He was q rebel.
