THE SECOND SCIENTIFIC LECTURE.
Professor Howland's second lecture will
be delivered at Virginia Hall tonight, bril-
liantly illustrated with the electric light.
The experiments will cover wide range
of interesting topics, and cannot fell to in
terest all classes. We especially hope to
see these lectures succeed, because they
promise to furnish our people high class
of entertainments. Our citizens have now
an opportunity to show their appreciation
of science presented in the attactive form
of brilliant and beautiful experiments.
Professor Rowland is no mere fippant
talker, who exhibits show. He is an
accurate and careful student of nature,
thoroughly familiar with his subject, and
brings to his aid the finest apparatus in the
world. He depends upon experiments rather
than words. The lecture tonight will be
very brilliant, including experiments with
the great magnet; laughing gas, or nitrous
oxide, showing its anaesthetic and exhilara-
ting properties; microscopic analyses the
primal forms Of animal life blood corpus
Giles; and q splendid series of views from
tho Yosemite and the Yellowstone.

capacity, even in obscurity, can win emf
hence and distinction; that. forgetting
all seeming errors incident to an event.
full life, and eschewing all partisan
feelings, we treasure only his virtues,
and would to-day unite with q nation
