Of . little over four miles, the density
of the air is only one-half what it is at
the earths surface. At the height Of
80 miles the atmosphere is well-nigh
inappreciable in its effect upon twi-
ligat. The phenomena OF lunar sclipses
indicate on sppreciable atmosphere at
the height of sc miles. The phenomena
of shooting-stars Indicate an atmos-
phere ut Che height Of 200 or 800 miles,
while the aurora indicates that the at
mosphere does not entirely cease at the
height Of 500 miles. Auroral exhibit
tions take place, therefore, in an At
mosphere of extreme rarity; so rare
indeed that II, in experiments with an
air-pump, we could exhaust the air as
completely, we should say that we had
obtained q perfect vacuum.
The auroral beams are simply spaces
which are illumined by the flow of cleo
tricity through the upper regions of
the atmosphere. During The auroras
of 1859 these beams were nearly 800
miles in length, and their lower extrem-
tiles were elevated about As miles
above the earth's surface. Their tops
inclined toward the south, about IL
degrees in the neighborhood of New
York. this being the position which the
dipping there assumes.-PRo-

One night Gen.--was out on the

a signal light Of the enemy, he told his
artillery officer that hole could easily
be put through it. Whereupon the
officer. turned to the corporal in charge
of the gun, said =

MARK OF A GENTLEMAN. No man is
a gentleman who, without proyacation
would treat with incivility the hum
blest Of his species. 1t Is a vulgarity
for which no accomplishment of dress
or address can ever atone. Show us
the man who desires to make every one
around him happy, and whose greatest
solicitude is never to give cause of
offence 10 any one, and we will show
you gentlemen BY nature and by
practise, though he may never have
worn suit of broadcloth nor ever
heard of lexicon. We are proud to
say for the honor Of our species there
are men in every throb OF whose heart
there is solicitude for the welfare OF
mankind, and whose every breath is
psrfumed with kindness.
