The NEBUL.E DISCOVERED BY THE HERsCHELs.-
In ancient times astronomers had noticed FIVE
spots in the heavens where cloudy sort of light
could be recognized. These spots they had called
cloudy stars" But not very long after the in
yention of the telescope several more of these
star-cloudlets began to be recognized. Lacaille
discovered fOrty-fve in the southern heavens, and
Messier, the comet-seeker, made list of no less
than l03. The SHAREHOLDERS or nebule. known
when Sir W. Herschel began his researches,
amounted to less than $50. In the year 1856,
that astronomer began his contributions to the
no less than 1000 of these objects to the Royal
Society. Three years later, he sent 10 list of
yet another thousand nebule, and in 1902 when
he was sixty-fOur years old) another list contain
ing 500 of these objects. In other words during
sixteen years, this interchangeable observer noted
the places of more than sixteen times as many of
these celestial cloudets as all preceding observers
had been able to record. Sir John Herschel
having proposed to himself the task of cOmplet-
ing, at southern station, the survey of the
heavens which his father had commenced, thought
it necessary to prepare himself for the work by
re-suryeying the northern heavens. While thus
engaged, he discovered 500 nebue which had
escaped his fathers notice. Then proceeding to
the Cape of Good Hope he examined those parts
of the heavens which had been Invisible from his
fathers northerly observatory, and in ls47 COM
municated a list of los star-couds, discovered
during the progress of this survey. In all, Sir
John Hersche discovered no less than 2,2OS
nebule, his father having discovered $500. As
the whole number of known nebue in our day
amounts to but $500, it viii be seen that more
than nine out of every ten known nebule we're
discovered by the Herschels-CorAsiR Magazine.

nobody thinks Of Frank Chaufrau as other than a

readily see that he was thoroughly New York
boy, naturally quick il not precociOus, possessing
the proverbial Inheritance of poor but honest
parents, forced more or less into the street cur

healthy instincts and robust determination. They
found small niche for him in the Park Theatre,
when Kean produced his Richard Ill" there.

| THE INTENDING .PAPkL ELEcTIoS.-The col
lapse of the temporal power has sorely dauped
the spirits of the Infallibilists, and has greatly
raised the courage Of those who, with varying de.
grees of frankness and vigor, were opposed to
the last Papal move. Cardinals and Monsignori,
whose opposition vas of mitigated character,
while the strong current of Ultamontane passion
ran in full tide, and whose opposition was miti-
gated by the supposed necessity of sinking minor
differences in the interests of the temporal power,
take now another view of the question with the
Italian Government definitely established in
Rome. These Cardinals and Monsignori. having
no longer any reason to be SILENT are speaking
out. The temporal power is gone. What if the
spiritual authority in Bavaria and Austria, in the
Rhine provinces, in many French diocese,
should share the same fate The Liberal party
in the Vatican are desirous of warding off this
mischief They are at present doing everything
iu their power to make Pius IX-if not absolute
ly retrace his steps-that would be too great too
public, too signal humiliation-at least slacken
speed, and no longer hurry downward on the steep
and dangerous path which he has been lately
treading. Should their efforts prove altogether
unsuccessful, they will openly side with Dollinger
and Father Hyaeinthe. These are no vague and
idle dreams-they are the plain, straightforward
assurances of great Catholic churchmen, by whom
such course is regarded as the sole means ca
pabe if not of saving St. Peters bark at least of
constructing such raft orlifebo as may enable
them to reach the shore 10 safety. Nor must it
be fotgotten that these men have their own per-
sonal jealousies aud vanity and ambition, Of which
the hopes and aims are menaced by the attitude
of the Pope, and by the new administrative in
struments at his disposal for giving effect to his
schemes his desires or it may be his mere caprice.
1t is well known that he proposes by special
bull, possessing the sanction of his newly assumed
personal infalibiity. to override and override the
ancient usages of the Sacred College By the
exercise of this new authority. he will nominate
his successor. Cardinal Patrizi is designated as
SUCH and the Cardinal will be authorized to as
sumo at once the Papal tiara, without the regu-
lar summoning and legal formalities of conclave
Cardinal Patrizi is also associated by the Pope
in the cares of tie present as preparatory to
those of his own future Government 1t may
perhaps interest the author of Sartor Resartus"
to be informed that among the most pressing an
xieties of the future POntif al the present mo-
ment is the idea of so completely remodeling the
dress of the clergy, both secular and regular that
it shall no longer associate the persons of the
wearers with the memories of medieval times, but
place them, in outward garb at least, on footing
not greatly different from the rest of their fellow
citizens.

laid away and must have been forgotten, had it
not been that some time after, Baker was to have

thought Of this sketch and proposed to Chanfrau,

it. IN The consequence was that it was produced
for the first time at Ben. A. Bakers benefit, on
the night Of the 18th OF February. ls4s There

arHE MULBERRY STREET GHOST. !"

This man was member OF engine company
No. 40, whose machine lay in Mulberry street,
near Grand, It was noted apparatus in its day.
Nearly all the members were butchers Of Center
Market. The engine was painted in white and
gold, and they came to designate her by such
term Of endearment as the Mulberry Street
Ghost" John Oartin was then the foreman, and
not only be, but the entire Center Market brood
of butcher boys were regular patrons of the Olym-
pic Theatre. A very characteristic anecdote
of this engine company was told me a long time
since, and as it illustrated most perfectly the
phase Of life which Chanfrau subsequently caught
so accurately, may as well tell it.

THE SUCCESS OF THE PLAY.


Chanfran afterwand played this piece at two
theatres on the same night for six months and it
drew all that time the densest kind of audiences.
Nose Humphreys seemed to feel sort of pater-
nal interest in the play. He went regularly to
the Olympic, and having cut his name on the
wooden bench in the pit to designate his seat
was in the habit of ousting all other claimants
without ceremony. He died IN Honolulu several
years ago, and it is said he retained the Nose
characteristics to the last
[AIose Humphreys came TO Honolulu in 1850,
in New Bedford whaler, and for several years
kept sailors boarding house, In the early days
of the FIRE department, Nose was member Of
engine company No. l. but resigned after few
years service as the duties of fireman here were
not exciting enoughto suit him. He was per-
feet encyclopedia on sporting events, and during
his residence here kept himself thoroughly post
ed on matters connected with the fancy" the
New York Clipper being his favorite oracle
Nose had the satisfaction on several occasions Of
witnessing the character, Of which he himself was
the original represented on the stage of the Royal
Hawaiian Theatre, the play having been produced
there for the first time in 1856, by l. F. Beatty,
j. S. Townsend and Others, with the former as
Nose" The proclivities of Nose, as a member
Of the fancy" made him prominent but once
here, and that was during the visit Of yankee
Sullivan" With this exception, he was one of
the most quiet characters in town his eccentrici-
ties only making him noted He worked in the
AdreJfissr occasionally, and also in the old Mis-
sion bindery, being both a book-binder and print
er. A short time previous to his death he went
to Maui, where he became farmer on small
scale. He returned to this city and finally died
in the Queens Hospital in 1861

TuE CHARACTER OF "IIEE.'

This little sketch of character ran seven weeks
before it received the benefit Of a Lie" Mary
Taylor, then a rising and favnrite actress. had
been shelyed by it, and she wanted a part in it.
Baker, at MitcheIs suggestion wrote the part Of
@Lize" for her, but it seems she utterly mistook
the character, playing it in curls and low-neck
dress and was looked upon by the public as an
anomaly. At Chaufraus hint, she had ;he good
sense to reconstruct it, coming out in neat little
calico gown with plain white collar, aud looking
for oil the world like one of those book-folders
thatoue sees in Chatham street and the Bowery
at six o'clock in the evening. Her success in
the part dated from that change
