End There Is None.

Light traverses space at the rate of mil
lions of miles minute, yet the light from
the nearest star requires ten years to reach
the earth. and Herschels telescope reveal
ed stars two thousand three hundred times
further distant. The great telescope of
Lord Rosse pursued these creations Of God
still deeper into space, and having resolv-
ed the nebulae of the milky way into stars,
discovered other systems of stars beauti-
full diamond points, glittering through
the black darkness beyond. When he
beheld this amazing abyss; when he
saw these systems scattered throughout
space; when he reflected upon their i'm
mense magnitude, and the countless mil
lions of worlds that belong to them, it
seemed to him as if the wild dream of the
German poet was more than realized
God called man in dreams into the vesti-
bule Of heaven saying: Come up high
her, and will show thee the glory of My
house." And to His angels, who stood
about His throne, he said {: Take him,
strip him of his robes of flesh; cleanse his
affections; put new breath into his nos
trils; but touch not his human heart-the
heart that fears and hopes and trembles. !"
A moment, and it was done, and the
man stood ready for his unknown voyage.
Under the guidance of mighty angel,
with sound of flying pinions, they sped a.
way from the battlements of heaven -
Sometimes on the mighty angels wings
they fed through Saharas of darkness, will
dernesses of death. At length, from a
distance not counted, save in the arithme-
tic of heaven, light beamed upon them, a
sleepy flame, as seen through hazy cloud.
They sped on in their terrible speed to
meet the light; the light with lesser speed
to meet them. In moment, the wheel
ing of planets; then came long eternities
of twilight; then again, on the right hand
and on the left, appeared more constella-
tions At last the man sunk down, cry
ing: ,"Angel, 1 can go no further; let me
down into the grave and hide me from the
infnitude of the universe, for end there is
none ?" END there is none?" demanded
the angel. And from the glittering stars
that shone around, there came choral
shout End there is none" END there
is none 2" deman1 1ed the angel again land
! is it this that awes thy soul? I answer
end there is none to the universe of God !!

Sunstroke.

An instructive article on the subject of
sunstroke appears in Lippincot's Maga-
zine for July, from the pen of Horatio c..
Wood, Jr., M. D. The writer shows the
true nature of this always alarming and
often fatal disease, and by inference its
proper treatment, his views in both being
illustrated and confirmed by physiological
experiments The following is summary
Sunstroke (coup de solieD is shown to
be simply an effect of overheating. Ex-
ternal heat is the cause of sunstroke, and
this cheat produces directly all the symp-
TOMS" 1t is we'll remarked, that in such
cases there should be no waiting for the
doctor; but the true nature of the case
should be first clearly ascertained. ''Has
every man that falls unconscious, Of a hot
day. the sunstroke?" A criterion of easy
application is to put the hand on the chest
and ''if the skin be cool you may rest as
sured that whatever be the trouble it is
not sunstroke."
If, on the contrary, the skin be of a
burning heat, the case is certainly sun
stroke, and no time should be lost. Cold
water. drawn from the nearest pump or
hydrant, or, if the case OCCUR in the har.
vest field, from the nearest spring, should
be freely dashed over the head and chest
of the sufferer, who is to be raised for a
moment to allow of the water being pour
ed on his back, and render the cooling of
the body more complete. This is to be
continued until the heat of the surface is
brought down to nearly its natural stan
dard, and consciousness begins to return.
A recommendation which we find in DIR.
Woods paper also is to prevent the heat
accumulatng in the body by interposing
bad conductor in the shape of light fan
mel, worn next the skin, and this article
may also be regarded as the best for outer
garments, loosely made, and also of light
or white color. IA roomy, wide brim-
med porous hat should be used, and in the
crown of it may be placed a wet towel or
large handkerchief" The additional re-
commentator that water should be used
externally and internally" must never be
forgotten.
Sweating. as Dr. Wood truly remarks,
is natures great refrigerative process, to
be brought on and kept up, not by the
pernicious practice Of the person exposed
to the sun drenching himself with liquor,
but ''by large quantities of water, not toe
cold, but without stint--quarts, if the
thirst crave it." When the sweat cease;
in July and August day, and throbbing
head and dry and hot skin, with unusua
restlessness and headache show themsel
yes, as the laborer or workman values
his life, let him leave his work, however
imperative, and take at once cold bath.
The author cites an experiment of his di
rectly bearing on the question of the caus
of sunstroke. "A hogs bladder was fit
ted over the head of an animal, with tub

THE PHILADELPHIA EXHIBITION OF
1S76.-Wm. Phipps Blake, Executive
Commissioner of the International Elk,
hibition to be held at Philadelphia in
1876, has issued a circular, which states
that the buildings VIII cover fifty acres
at Fairmount Park, and the exhibition
will continue from April till October
All nations will be invited to contribute
Mr.. Blake says:
The outlines of simple yet compre.
hensive classification have been adopted
There will be ten departments, each sub
divided in ten groups, and these again
into classes. The details of this classi.
tcation are now being elaborated, and
will be published in due season, together
with such rules and regulation as may
be found necessary for the proper con.
duct and management of the Exhibition.
Each State of the Union will be ex-
pected to send its peculiar products,
illustrating its resources, both developed
and undeveloped. A complete exhibit
ton of this kind by all the States, will
afford the means of comparing their in.
dustrial condition and capabilities. The
products of mining and agriculture will
occupy large portion of the space al
lotted to each State, and will receive
their just share of attention in this uni.
versal display.

EDUCATED AND ILLIrERATE.

Hon. John Eaton, Commissioner of
Z lueation, has made to the Secretary of
the Interior his report for 1871. 1t is
the second report from this bureau, and
makes a volume of 100 pages. On the
subject os illiteracy the Commissioner
divides the country into three snb-divi-
sions-Sorthern, Pacific and Southern
States. In the first sub division is
placed the States of Mime, New Hamp-
shire, Vermont, Massachusetts,, Rhode
Island, Connecticut, New York. New Jer-
sey. Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, In
diana, Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota,
Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas eighteen
in all. In the second are included the
States of California, Nevada and Oregon,
and the Territories of Arizona. Washing
ton, Idaho, Utah, Montana, Dakota,
Wyoming, Colorado and New MEXICO
three States and nine Territories. In
the Southern division, the States Of
Delaware, Maryland, Virginia. West
Virginia, Kentucky. North Carolina,
South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia,
Alabama, Florida, Mississippi. Missouri,
arkansas, Louisiana, Texas, and the
Territory or District of Columbia-siX-
teen States and one Territory.
In the Northern division there are
LOGS, 297 adult illiterates, only 2,l59,
OF whom are colored In the Pacific,
there are 20, 534, of whom l, 26l are col
ored. In the Southern, there are 2. 4S9, :
79l, of whom 1852 067, OF nearly half a
million over one-half are cOlored OF
the iIliterate minors, between ten and 81
years old, there are 1877 900 in the North
srn $4,000 in the Pacific, and us 600 in
the Southern. The survivors of these
$1,000 boys and girls, as the Com
missioner well remar ks, " will all, with.
in the next five years, be reckoned
among the adult illiterate host of this
country" Is there not food for thought
and an incentive to speedy action i,
that startling fact?
Another phase OF this question of illit
eracy, as set forth by the Commissioner
is in the fact that Of the illiterates in tn
Northern division, 10 years old and over
including all races and colors, there az
690,l17 Northern born and 665, 9S5 o
foreign birth. In the Pacific, 74,50
natives, and 80, 406 of foreign birth. l
the Southern, 4,117, $50 natives, and ~,
1888 foreigners. The blacks, CT course
form large percentage at this last item
But take the whole Union and the whit
illiterates far outnumber the colored
In the Northern division out of every
illiterates Is are white; in the Pacific
20 ont of every 20 are white, and in til
Southern, Is out every AZ. These fact
vii doubtless be used tn no little fore
by the adherents to the doctrine of CON
pulsory education-a question which
destined to figure largely in politics
circles before many years.

The labor demonstration In New York on
Monday was, for some unexplained cause, less
formidable in point Of numbers than vas AK
pected- The estimates of the procession vary
from twenty-five hundred to ten thousand men.
while 1t was expected that thirty thousand would
take part in the parade. The good order OBJ
served was noticeable. So was the absence of
excitement along the line Of march. There was
no apparent need for the police, and even the
ordinary car travel was not Distracted. 1t Ia
satisfactory to note these facts, and that the
labor movement was not disgraced by any acts
or threats Of violence-if we except from the
latter the foolish inscription on the banner of
lew infernafionals: "Peaceably, If We can;
forcibly, IL We must" The American mind has
no sympathy with the communist ideas OF
mob violence, and such sentiments as that
above quoted are quite evidently some foreign
product.

TWO others Of the same precious lot, named

the same purpose. Things have come to a
pretty pass when the miserable pimps of N. G..

The provincial papers are commenting with
some severity upon what they are pleased to
term the disgraceful closing scenes in CON-
gress." There i0as something OF the sort; and
just here we would remark that Congress ought
injustice to itself to have set an investigating
committee to work to settle the responsibility
for the Infamous and treacherous character of
the lemonade used In the last hours of the ses-
sion. Lemonade rightly made lie an innocent
and cooling beverage. II is not difficult drink
to concoct; there has been no rise either In
lemons or sugar to excuse adulteration, and we
do not hold that the water-fsmine Of the pre-
vious week excused the substitution or any
other fluid IN place Of that usually employed in
the manufacture Of this mildly acid solace. But
there was something radically wrong about this
lemonade. 1t wholly unified several members
for legislation. 1t made some noisy, some dis
putatious, some shaky at the knees, and dam
aged everybody who drank it. This lemonade
business should be Investigated.
