The Sum Imhabited--Orgnni Be-
inys Sources Of lis Heat.

In recently published book called "Tho
Sun, Ruler, Life and Light Of the Planetary
System" RichardA b. Proctor, e. r.. s., gives,
in popular and pleasantly unsciontifc man
| ner, an account of the sun as set forth by the
| latest discoveries of tho telescope aud spec.
| troscope. We quote tho following from
| sketch Of the book in the New York Evening
In 1862 ,Mr. Nasmyth discovered that the
so. called "p&es" soen in the suu's surface,
| were but Intervals between cortniu luminous
objects, similar iu form and size, aud rescm.

giles, and covering the whole surface of the
sun, except that where spots appeared they
scomod to have been driven back with VIC.
lencc on all sides, and the leaves ou the rough
edges OF each spot pointed everywhere toward
its black nucleus, escmbliug "a piece of
coarse thactEing with straw tho edge of which
has been left uutrimmel."
Upon these observations, which have been
confirmed by others, Sir John Herschel is
quoted US romarking:
"rhe exceedingly definite shape of these

athyar each other (cxccpt where they form

of their being vaporous, q cloudy, or fluid

and though it would be too dariug to speak
of such organization as partaking Of the MA.

ton is competent to develop at once heat, and

''To bo seen at all, however, even with the
highest magufyiug powe our telescopes
will bear when applied to tie sun, they can
hardly be less than thousand miles in
length, and two Or three hundred in breadth"
Mr.. Proctor adds: "Lf these things arc
solar inhabitants whose fiery constitution en-
ables them to illuminate, warm and ccctri
else the whole solar system, they are now
wanting in that evidence Of might which gi.
gantic size affords. Truly Alilton's picture

Tho Uses Of Flowers.

Il Is common to point to flowers as
final answers to utilltarianism. J. 4.
Lowell has told Us Of those practical
questions which would abolish the rose
and be answered triumphantly by the
cabbage. All very true but may not
one question whether the flowers were
really meant to be as useless as we
make them outP No doubt their use
IL very different from that Of the cab
bage. One can heartily respond to
Leigh Hunts claim for them
"Uselessness diyinest, .
Of use the fnest;"
but ut the same time one may have a
misgiving that we do not put them to
the finest uses when we cut them for
bouquets and adorn u rooms with
them. The ancients made n religious
use Of flowers, as chaplets, altar deco
rations, and as symbols Of particular
gods and goddesses. Each flower pre-
served a divine myth. The tradition
Of their sanctity passed to the Christian
converts. aud many Of our exotics
would never have reached us but for
their assiduous cultivation within mo-
nastlc walls. The rosary Is the trans
f~iguration Of roses into prayers, and
one Of the noblest Of Persian sacred
books Is the Gulistan or Rose Garden.
Sheik Saadi walked with his friend In
a beautiful garden. ut was the sea-
son Of spring the air was temperate,
and the rose In full bloom. The vest
ments Of the trees resembled the fes-
tive garments Of the fortunate. Il was
mid-spring, when the nightingales were
chanting from the pulpits Of the
branches the rose decked with pearly
dew, like bushes on the cheek of a
chiding mistress. You would have said
that the knot Of the Pleiades was sus-
pended from the branch of the vine.
Under the shade Of Its trees Zephyr
had spread the variegated carpet. !

roses, odorlferous herbs and hyacinths,
which he had intended to carry into

that the flower soon fadeth. and the en-
ioyment of the rose Is Of short continu-
ance, and the sages have declared that
the heart ought not TO be set upon any |
thing that Is transitory.' He asked.
what course is there to be pursued P
I replied, Il am able to form a book Of
roses, whose spring the autumn blast
cannot injure. What benefit from a
basket Of flowers? Carry a leaf from

his flowers. while the rose was yet
in bloom the book entitled the Rose
Garden was finished" From this
book the dervishes get their hymns to-
day, and the people say each sentence
of it has seven meanings. Shall we cay
that while carrying Horticulture 20 far
we have not been able to transform our
flowers yet into tra%nscendent rosarles
and rose gardens? Ifear not.-Har-
