Unknown Forces.
There is curious bit of speculation on the
cause of the recent riots and storms which a
correspondent Of the New York Tribune offers
The facts, all occurring in the week between
the 18th and 10th of July, are as follows:-
July 18th, the riot in New York; July 10Th,
riot between the Catholics and Interpationals
in Vienna; terrific hurricane, passing through
New York, Cincinnati, st. Louis, Louisville
and Huron county, Missouri; petroleum ex-
plosion in Rheims, France, fifty persons kill
ed and wounded; riotous meeting in Hyde
Park, London; July 18th, riot at Greenwich.
England; tremendous typhoon on the Japan
Coast, seven steamers wrecked; July 18th,
fearful tornado 10 Western Tennessee; terri
BILE hail storm in Western Iowa.
The remarkable coincidence regarding these
social and natural outbreaks or commissions is
that the mean isothermal line of New York,
as is given in Johnstons Physical Atlas,
touches each Of these localities or to put it in
palmer words that they have the same mean
annual temperature as New York. There
may be a possible law governing the occur
renee of these phenomena which scientific men
may yet evolve by the results Of study aud
experiment.

BAND AND SON.
One who has been intimate with the family
of Mrs. Wharton, informs the New York 1fi-

her husband, who was rather wild and ba-
rum-scarum person, was conspicuous during
twenty years Of their married life, and she
was so devoted to the son, whom she is charg-
ed with having murdered, that she sacrificed
her own comfort during his entire school days
to be near him and look after his welfare"
