The ladies at Seneca Falls, n. Y, had a

A MAGNIFICENT SIGHr.

A gentleman who writes from Bombay,
the station at which Professor Lockyer, of
the British Eclipse Expedition, viewed the
recent eclipse. Whites to Nature as fol-
lows:
1T does not happen more than once in
Lifetime to see such Il glorious and mag
niticent sight as that from which have
just returned-that is, the total eclipse of
the sun. have seen many eclipses be-
fore, but never anything to equal this.
was engaged to 60 with the Morgans to
the top of the hill to see it. Got up at six.
and found it a lovely morning; rode up to
Morgan's, about half a mile. carrying with
me glasses, smoked glass and sun hat.
Got there before seven, and found the
eclipse already begun. Got out two mir
rors and watched the hole in the sun grow
bigger and bigger. 1t began from the
top, and we all went off to the highest
point on the hill, from whence we could
see all Dolly and the mountains around.
When the eclipse got so far, the cold on
the mountain grew much greater, the
grass was SO wet that no ones boots kept
II out, the feet and hands grew cold, and
with your back to the sun the light over
the country was like the twilight or the
earliest dawn. Gradually the lower streak
got thinner and thinner, until at last there
shone light like the famous lime light,
ana III a moment or two that went out and
the sun was totally concealed; many stars
were visible, the whole country looked
dark-that is, half dark, like moonlight
the crows stopped cawing. and for two
minutes and half the total eclipse lasted,
a sight | shall never forget, and then the
lime-light again appeared at the bottom
rim OF the sun. and gradually more and
more of him appeared, the crows began
again at once, and the cocks began to
crow, the shadow now was inverted, and
by degrees got smaller, until at nine
clock the eclipse was over. / cannot
but suppose that the scientific men must
have had grand opportunities of observa-
ton, and that to-day's pencil will carry
home many a description. Anything more
beautiful. more sublime, Or more perfect
it would be impossible to conceive.

Charles Z. Tay1er, Professor of Latin in Wake
Forest College, N. G., says that last Christmas,
D. S. Ramsour. a student, II years of age, came
against the said student for conspiracy and muir
der. Ramsour explained, with much feeling
and youthful ingenuouanezs," that some time
before he had, with q few companions, ridden q
few miles in the night, and returned without
lessor Tayler, tin that spirit of froic, or desire
for adventure, which would lead any boy Of his
ape to do the same" On the night Of Dec; 80;

THE PRESIDENTIAL CONTEST.


70 the People Of Pennsylvania:
We have lost a battle, but the teld should no5
be surrendered. Fraud has held hlgh carnival
inphiladelphia, and parslyzed our ranks through,
out the State, but the insolent triumph shoula
reneW every friend Of regeneratod.. GOV,
eminent to increased exertlons Inc o1ncial
vote, declared in Philadelphmla, m has not even Ine
semblance Of correctness. The officers charged
with the returus, at the meeting Of the return
iudres we're rotsvorn. The returns we're read off
without opportunity for examination. The COM
putation Of the vote was not n made. out. 9t's
taxi taken to to the Office where the law required
thsg ihfsa By 0o' this roeess p
+ ticed in open defiance Of law and public decency,
tie candidate On the State ticket who received
the lowest number Of votes is returned as hav-
ing q larger vote than his associates. We had
no power to purge the fraudulent registration OF
this city-no authority to restrain Illegal votes
nud now have no tribunal adequate to the pun
ishment Of election officers and others who con-
spired to pollute the bellot-box-
Yet the principles involved in this contest will
not perish by q temporary defeat in PennsylVa-
nia, whether honest or fraudulent. The nation
out Pennsylvania right may achieve victory in
November Pennsylvania may not be able to
give her electoral vote to vindicate self-goVern-
ment, but she must not be voiceloss in the
struggle. Her people must manfully stand BY
their principles, and organization. The
pendent power Of the people in this State is
made doubly imperative by the means employed
to defeat US On Tuesday last, and he is unworthy
Of the blessings Of liberty who would withhold
his every effort because local OF temporary de-
feat is probable. This battle Of Reform will be
won. It may not be this year, but surely in the
near future: It appeals to every friend Of
national peace and purity, to every votary
of State and universal regeneration, and
to every citizen who values the sanctity Of
the elective franchise. There must be no fall
tering in the ranks. Let the friends of Horace
Greeley and the principles he represents every
where perfect their organization at once. We
can deserve victory in Pennsylyania, and that
may save the nation. It will certainly save our
cause from dishonor and assure US early triumph.
