Is TIE Noon INHABIrED.-The CoraHsll
Magazine concludes an article on the habi-
liability Of the moon, by saying that, stas-
tronomers have long known fall certainly
that no forms of life, such as we are famii-
lar with, can exist upon tho moon. They
know that If our satellite has an atmos-
Phere at oil, that atmosphere must be SO
Limited in extent that no creatures we are
acquainted with could live 10 it. They
know that she has no oceans, seas, rivers
or lakes, neither clouds or rains, and that
II she had, there would be no winds to
wait the moisture from place to place, or to
cause the clouds to drop fatness upon the
lunar fields.
They know, also, that the moons surface
is subjected alternately to cold far more
Intense than that which binds our arctic
regions in everlasting frost, and to O heat
compared with which the fierce noon of
tropical day is as the freshness of spring
morning. They search only zoverthe lunar
alsc LOT the signs of volcanic action, feel
ing wen assured that no traces of the ex-
1stenee OF living creatures will ever be de-
tected in that desolate orb.

LEGISLATIVE AFFAIRs.-These remain in
about the same condition as at our last is
sue. The Senate has no quorum and it is
confidently held by the opponents of War.
moth that his wing Of the House has not
one either. It is true that one day the
Senate had or claimed to have the reauis-
lite number present and passed bills
repeating the election law and several
others of the most outrageous legislative
grievances of the State but though
the same action was taken by the House
and the bills were signed by the Governor
and thus took the semblance of laws, nobody
dreams of giving them serious attention
as genuine legislation. With such a
president as Pinchback for the Senate, and
such quorum of bogus members in the
House, Warmoth could easily teke the
credit of signing bills which he knows will
not be laws. /
We can see no immediate prospect of an |
end to the embroglio. If the Congressional
Committee comes here, perhaps something
definite will be done. They may be able
70 patch up peace between the two fac
ions, but We are of opinion that Grant ia
lot patching up man. We think that he
will fight it out on the same line and that
will spend the summer in n
ooler climate than Louisiana.
