ILLNESS OF Ex-PREsIDENT BUCHANAN
The Lancaster Intelligencer states that the,
condition of Mr.. Buchanan's health is very
critical; he is still confined to his bed, and
allowed to see no one. The prostration re-
sulting from his illness is such as to occa-
sion, owing to his advanced age, the grayest
apprehensions as to the result.

Mr.. GOWNS LEoTURE.-The lecture on
the Mystery of Motion, by Rev. E. Corwin,
was delivered at the Olympic Club Hall, last
Friday evening according TO notice. The
lecturer obtained the close attention Of his
audience, while he unfolded his subject, and
proceeded not only to develope the mystic
ries, about which some little curiosity had
been felt in advance, but to shape them to
the argument of the lecture, In Dynamics,
he said, though many important laws had
been discovered that explained the mo-
ton of bodies, yet there was so much left
unexplained, and even to known general
laws there were such exceptional cases, that
mysterious motions are met in nature from
the microscopic world up to the majestic
sweep Of the Heavenly bodies. To assert
that natural law governs the movements
Of bodies, is not a development of the why
and the how, but only the substitution of
the terms of a generalization, for that cause
which remains unknown still. The lecturer
drew illustrations of the exceptional mo-
tions, to the great law of gravitation in the
Heavenly bodies, from the rotary motion of
the planets, their different speeds, and their
revolving in different directions, also to the
origin and relative determination of the
centripetal and centrifugal forces of orbit
motion. Exceptional movements may be
traced in the meteoric system, the motion of
comets, and the recession of the equinoxes
The theories advanced to explain, the motion
of light, of equalization, of molecular at
traction are still imperfect, and he passed
| in clear review many of the still obscure
movements in nature. The lecturer
ably showed that the first cause, which
science alone, cannot satisfactorily point
out, was by reason and faith clearly arrived
at-the intelligent will of the Creator The
student of science he avered had illimit-
able fields yet remaining unexplored, where
by diligent study he may gather laurels of
renown and honor.
The lecture abounded with antithetical
sentences, felieitous expressions, suggestive
words, a style which renders the public
efforts of the lecturer, very popular in this
community.

BULLOCK DRIvING.-So long as driving
bullock through the street is necessary, in
order to reach the suburbs Of the town, there
will happen those repeated frights and not
unfrequent accidents which have hitherto
called public attention to this dangerous
practice. But if landed on the wharyes there
is no other way except through the streets.
1t would be a great public improvement if
the Assembly would appropriate s, 500 to
build jetty on the west side of the harbor,
with roadway to the shore, and an ordi-
nance that all cattle should be landed there,
and all slaughter house should be located on
the point makai of the prison. All the work
of the butchers could then be carried on
without annoyance to any one, and the cat
tie reach their pens without passing through
the streets.

LONDON, May 23.-Mr Baxter, member for
Montrose, on Monday night moved as an
amendment to the Scotch Reform Bill, that
the number of Scotch members of the House
of Commons be increased by taking the fran
chise from some of the small English Dor
oughs. This amendment, which was opposed
by the Ministry on Monday night, but carried
on division, was last night accepted. The
Premier subsequently proposed, ON the part
of the Ministry, new clause, that persons
excused from the payment of rates by reason
of their poverty, shall not be entitled to
vote. Further consideration of the bill was
then postponed.
In the Commons, Disraeli moved vote OF
thanks to the commander of the Abyssinian
expedition.
Mr.. Reardon, member for Athlone, gave
notice that he would propose the following
question TO the Government: "If the health
of the Queen is such that it detains her Ma
jesty from London, that the Ministry advise
abdication." The question was ruled out OF
order.

JAPAN.

We are indebted TO our Hawaiian Consul,
Mr.. Van Reed, for full files of the Japan pa
pers, with dates up to April 2Stb. We notice
the Hiogo and Osaka Herald, new paper
printed at Hiogo, also that some numbers of
the Japan Gazette is printed on japanese
paper.
The ram &Onescdu arrived April %, after a
run of 20 days from Honolulu. The Times
says:
She came in flying the Japanese flag, and
yesterday a number of Satsuma men went
off to see her and were very anxious TO take
possession at once. Capt. Brown, however,
the American officer IN charge preferred first
to consult with General Van Valkenburgh on
the subject, and the result of this conference
was that about 6 P. NJ. the japanese flag was
hauled down, and the American ensign hoist
ed, and under this flag she lies at present.
The question Of ownership, in the present
state of affairs here, and while the balance
sheet between Shogoon and Mikado is still
innsbruck, is byno means an easy one to solve.
1t is a noteworthy circumstance that the lia-
waiian Government advanced some thousand
dollars TO help the vessel of their new allies.
But for this, the SOneardH would to-day have
been lying in the harbor of Honolulu.
The foreign ministers have all returned to
Yokohama.
The war still RACES, but Satsumas star is
declining, as be has already fallen out with
some of his party, Daimios, and it is not un-
likely that the Tycoon may recover his posi-
ton. The Mikado ages TO assume all treaty
obligations which have been entered into by
the Tycoon, but there are great outrages COM
mitted by bis troops who are poorly restrain
ed.
Toti Zenzaburo, the officer who attacked
the foreigners at Hiogo has been executed.
On the Sth of March, some sailors from the
French fleet were surveying the harbor of
Salri, a suburb few miles from Osaka, when
they were attacked by armed japanese, with
out provocation- Eleven were killed and
five wounded.
The French Minister at once demanded the
arrest and exeeution of those men Of Prince
Tosa who had committed the act, personal
apology from the Prince of Tosa and the Mi
kado's government on board the French YES
