Sinking slowly.


Diseases that progress rapidly to crisis are not
the only oues to bs dreaded. Canksr or dry tot
does not blast tree as suddenly as a stroke of
ghtning but unless arrested 1t destroys it as
Galnly; and in like manner chronic debility, al
though 1t does not XIII uRiLh the sRftness Of yell
low lever, is as sure to sap the springs Of life
eventually as any acute disease II not checked by
lnvigorAting medication. There is something in
sxpressibly touching in the spectacle OF premature
decay. Languor, p4llOr, ensei4tlOn, depression Of
spirts and distaste for exertlon, its ordinary

MEXICAN AFFAIRS.
Serious Troubles in Tehauntepee-In-
auguratiOn Of the New President
Executive SpeeulatiOns.

MEXICO, November .. - Seriou,
/ troubles are reported in Tehauntepec
where it is alleged the Indians who were
willing to obey Losada were attacked by
7 troops, and that General PlacidO Bega
was killed. LOsada is reported dead, but
| the news needs confirmation.
President LeredO will be inaugurated
the first Of December. Astonishment is
manifested in political circles at the per-
sistency Of the new President in retain
ing in high office the appointees of the
late President Juarez. The Cabinet Off
GERS are said to have resigned, but the
new Cabinet viii not be appointed till
after the Inauguration of the incoming
President. SenOr Rojo, the new Presi-
dent Of Congress, is JuareZ-
ist, and Senior Senecomo, the new
Nice-President is an adherent Of Gener-
al Pasfiraos Diaz, who is now on his way
to the capital.
A committee in Congress proposes to
erect monument to JuareZ, and pub
lish work containing a record of his
acts and efforts in behalf of the State.
It also proposes TO pay to the minor
children of the late President an annual
pension Of three thousand dollars each
until they attain their majority, the pen
sion to continue TO the daughters until
they are married.
Congress has pardOned General Trim
aGad Codena and restored him TO his
seat in that body, which be left to Join
the insurgents.
The sacrificial stone Of the Astecs has
been removed to the National Museum.

ARTIFICIAL CLOUDS.

From Lipplncott's Magazine.l
solomon says, "He that regardeth the
clouds shall not rear" but the reapers
on the Rhone have lately been studying
the clouds to some purpose: they have
succeeded in manufacturing them to or
der. Successful experiments, according
TO the Lyons Pr0gres, have been UNDER
taken by the Ninedressers' Congress for
the production Of artificial clouds. Tin
receivers, filed with a peculiarly-pre-
pared tar, were disposed over an area of
many acres, and when the tar was ignited
thick white clouds rose into the atmOs-
phere, and, spreading out evenly over a
large region, remained suspended sew
eral yards above the soil. The reader
will at once understand the object and
the use of this device. In seasons when
frost is feared the far-clouds would inter-
pose between the crops and the sky, thus
checking the night radiation which
often causes such raVages iE vineyards
and gardens, bOth in spring and at har-
vest-tinoe. This experiment of the
French husbandmen is, therefore, some
thing more than a curious scientific feat
1t u valuable agricultural contriv-
ance, all the more useful from the sim
pilcity and cheapness Of its machinery,
a few dollars worth Of tar being ample
provision for a season until the dangers
Of frost are past, or the crops can no
longer be injured. This device for cloth
Ing the fields with q protecting robe Of
vapor, taken together with the we'll
known process Of caDnonading the
clouds to make them ''tell their beads
IN drops Of rain, shows how the mod
ern farmer may shape the elements 10
bis purposes, and rob even cloud-con-
pelling ZeUs Of bis fablfd attributes.

THE BROOKLYN BRIDGE.
When the Bridge viii be Finished, and
How It viii Look.

The New York World contains a de-
scription Of the new suspension bridge
/ between New York and BROOKLYN, with
an engraving. We quote:
A more magnificent structure of its
| kind has never been erected. The
| hight Of the towers above high water
mark will be two hundred and sixty
seven feet; the hight of the center of
the main span, by the same measure
ment, one hundred and thirty five feet:
the length Of the river span, one thou
sand six hundred and sixteen feet: of
each land span, nine hundred and forty
feet; of the New York approach, one
Thousand four hundred and forty-one
feet; Of the Brooklyn approach, nine
hundred and forty-One feet; and the total
length of the bridge viii be five eight
hundred and seventy-eight feet. Thus
it viii be seen that it far exceeds the di-
mensions of the largest suspension
bridge now IN <Xistence-that Of Mag
ara, whose main span measures about
one thousand two hundred feet. The
span Of the Old Niagara bridge meas
ures eight hundred feet, and that at Gin
cinnati about one thousand feet. The
anchorage in this city will be situated al
the intersection Of Water and Dover
streets, and the approach will be en-
tered very nearly at the present site of
the Daily Nel0s Office in Chatham street.
One question has often been asked to
which reply win be appropriate here,
and that is: Will the largest ship be
able to pass beneath the span of the |
bridge without lowering her top-gallant |
mast? The answer is, unquestiOnably, |
no. For the masts Of a ship measure |
one hundred and thiTty-five feet, the |
hight Of the bridge above high water |
mark. But there is this to be said on /
the subject. In the first place the send
ing down OF ships tOp-gallant masts
involves little trouble, and further,
when the bridge shall have been COM
pleted, it is hardly probable that with
the Improvements now in progress at
He'll Gate many ships will need to pass
beneath it.
The situation Of the bridge may now
be stated thus: The c6issOns on both
sides of the river have been sunk; the
lower ON the BROOKLYN side has reached
a hight Of about one hundred and forty
on the New York side has
reached the hight Of about fifty feet,
both measurements Being from high
water mark. The towers have vet to be
the cables 70 be sunk, the
approaches to be constructed, and, in a
word, the bridge to be built. How long
a time must elapse before the undertake
ng will be eonsunmated is q question
hat is constantly asked by every one.
It is not easy TO answer il. The enQi-
leers themselves viii hardly be brought
10 make an estimate. Should everything
le favorable, should there be no more
lelays ia procuring titles to land on
sither side, which is scarcely to be ex-
1ected, year more viii be requisite in
which to complete the towers, a year
more Ia which to swing the cables, and I
hen, with plain calling, oneort two more
II least VIII 60 by before travel can be I
commenced.
