A Solar Stcam-Enginc,

NJ. Mouchot is at present exhibiting in
Paris what he calls q solar stcam-cnginc-
an exceedingly interesting piece of me-
chanism, the novelty and ingenuity OF
which are equally striking. \ spherical
mirror, or reflector, of a hollow form,
plated with silver, is placed in a position to
receive the full strength of the falling sun
beams, the intensified heat of which is
communicated to d boiler formed Of glass
or crystal the water contained in which
boils after the lapse of a few minutes, and
the steam, playing upon the piston, sets a
small engine in rapid motion, which,
in turn, moves on Archimedean screw,
which forces q body of water up a con-
siderable height. The inventor entertains
sanguinc hopes that his machine, once con-
structcd to work on a large scale, will be
universally preferred for all industrial
operations in intercepted countries, where
the ardent rays Of the sun for eight months
in the year will insure regularity in work
ing, and constitute for them the most eco
nomical motive power. 1t remains to be
seen whether operations on a large scale
will be as brilliantly successful as the ex-
perimcnts at present performed by the IN
genious model. Opinions are much divided
concerning the practical working qualities
of the invention, some maintaining that 1t
is only an interesting toy, and others that
it is destined to operate another revolution
in the walks of science and industry.

The most interesting fact developed by
the letter from Lady Byron's solicitors is
that her own statement is in the hands Of
three trustees, who are empowered by hel
will to make such use of it as they deem
fitting. If Mrs. Stowe has misrepresented
the case we may therefore expect this
manuscript to be given to the world.

English Voices.

From tie correspondence OF New York Tribune.
In the conversation of many Englishmen
of all classes, and especially among the wo-
men, 7 have been struck with the distinct
ness and force of their expression. This, |
believe, is contrary to the general OPINION,
according to which the English are a race
of thick and stammering speech, drawing,
hesitating, minicing, and swallowing their
words instead of calculating them with en-
phasis and effect. | remember that Lord
Lytton (Bulwer), in his work on England
and the English" refers to this Imperfect
ton of utterance as a characteristic trait Of
his countrymen, and in speaking with him
on the subject l ventured to call in question
the correctness of the description. My own
experience has certainly given me a dlt-
fcrent impression, and never have heard
our noble English spoken with such clear
ness and articulation and energy Of tone as
during my visit in London. There is a far
greater variety and power OF emphasis, an
expression of sincerity and earnestness, a
frank and hearty candor Of lntonatlon, II |
may so call it, which is no less refreshing
to the ear than to the heart. They speak
as if they meant something by their words
instead of experimenting with glittering
soap-bubbles. The women in particular,
net only those of the cultivated classes, but
TO q great extent in the common walks Of
life, have q certain melodious sweetness Of
expression, q graceful undulation of tone
and cadence, that reminds you of the
warbling of birds, and more than makes up
for the deficiency Of personal charms, which
SO eloquently deplores as cha
racteristic Of the blood. You seldom find
his melody and grace Of expression among
women. You at once detect the
difference in the crowd of travellers that
'ou meet in Europe. Whether it is the ef-

A most startling astronomical fact-the
explosion, or rather the confiagratiOn, Of
Tau Corone-occurred some time since. 1t
appears now that another and much more
important star is slowly taking itself out Of
our system. BY calculations OF extraordi-
nary minuteness and dclicacy, Mr.. Hug
gins and Father Sccchi have demonstrated
hat Sirius and our sun are mutually re-
ceding from one another at the rate of 29.4
miles per second. In the end, therefore,
though the distance of time strains the
imagination, We must lose sight of Sirius
that is to say, provided we have not by that
time gained the capacity Of watching the
more distant universe towards which he
must be receding-an improbability. No
thing seems so near its final limit as the
power of astronomical telescopes, while the
power of the human eye, if it alters at all,
probably decreases.

Mr.. Edward l.. Garbctt writes to the
SpeciGtor in reference TO the destruction OF
the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, main
tanning that the cities Of the Plain were de-
! stroyed by n crowded group of the sodio-
magnetic meteors, known to be following
| Tempel's telescope comet Of January, 1866.
Now. the chances to be considered we're
| those for the following six condolences |.
That the period dcduced from the node
| passages of the comets only observed vis-
| it's, the Chinese Of 1866 and ours Of 1866,
would give o visit in the winter between b.
C. 1898 and '97, in one of which years the
catastrophe is dated, consequently in the
right biennium out of 163.
2. That the earth's passage of the node
was then about July 81, and the event was
in a hot season (when Abraham needed
shade at noon, and the visitors proposed
abiding in the street all night. Suppose
this applicable in Palestine to half the
year; then we have the right half-year out
of 2.
3. A fall as vertical as rain (" then the
Lord rained " was possible from this
source in no hour but that of sunrise.
| Hence we have the right hour out of "a.
4. Dividing each hemisphere (say) into
s zones of latitude, this degree of verti-
| cality was possible in none of these but the
third north. Hence we have the right lati-
tude region out of lG.
8. Sodium, the chief element in the alb
normal deposits now there land in the salt
said to have buried Lots wife), was also the
chief observed by Browning and Secchi in
these meteors, and is not the chief in one
thousandth of the matters on earth. But
let us suppose a twentieth Of all known mat
ter to display it as prominently as the me-
teors did, then VIC have the right chief Gle
ment OFT Of 20.
6. Magnesium, the second in those salt
deposits, was the only other ingredient con-
s~picuous to Browning or to Secchi and
though it stands higher in the order of
known abundance On earth than sodium, it
would not be thus conspicuous in one known
solid of ten. Hence we have the right Sc
cond element out Of 10.
Now, suppose any event not due to this
comet to be recorded. The chances against
the account presenting those six agreements
with it's clements, and no disagreement, are
found by deducting l from l63 q X
l6 x 20 X 10. In short, the discoveries of
these three years have made it three mil
lions to one that the history Of Sodom is
true, and this the physical cause. Now, l
do not call that scientific "certainty," but
it will not be easy to find in meteoric sci
encc a result resting on much stronger evil
dcncc.
A correspondent says "~Supposing this
statement to be correct, there is an Incl
dent which tends greatly TO confirm it. 1t
will be observed that the interval between
the two observations is 500 years. Now,
just 1000 years after the destruction OF
Sodom, in the year that King Ahaziah died,
B. c.. S97, we find it recorded that fire de-
sccndcd from heaven, upon the top of a
hill, at two different times, and each time
consumed a captain Of fifty with his tifty.,,
