IIoT WEATHER.-Our friend, Mr..
John T. Lyon, tells US that it will
be hardly necessary to inform our
readers that the weather is hot this
week, as they have likely found it
out. But perhaps they do not
know the reason, Tacchini, an
Italian astronomer, has recently
discovered some remarkable dis
turbances in the solar chromato-
sphere, or gaseous vapor which sur
rounds the sun to the depth o.
1900 to 5000 miles, from the
presence OF vapor of magnesium
arising from the suns surface, and
developing increased light and
heat. Stars have been known tc
blaze up with a q lustre, tentolo
greater than before, and others te
be as suddenly reduced in bright
ness. and go out altogether. The
sun is not exempt from such catas
tropophes, but among the thou
sands Of stars, the chauce is very
slight of his being one of the un
fortunates. There seems then tt
be no OCCASION for alarm.

Over TIE DEAD BoDYso1

An INFANT. -'On "Wednesday and

by Mr.. Robert Jones, Coroner, ,and*a
Jury of two whites and ten blacks, OF
which Mr.. Thos. M. Christian was
foreman, over tho dead body of q col
ored infant. which had been found
buried eein Mrs. Hughey's garden:
The evidence cstablishedthc fact that
the infant 4 was tho child of Rosa
Jackson, q young colored woman, and
chat it had been born alive, and had
been buried under circums:ancesiof
secrecy, by tho grandmother, Sylvia syll'y7 4
Jackson. The Jury came to the con-
clusion that the death had been caused
by the neglect Of tho grandmother,
and so rendered their verdict. A
warrant against tho said Sylvia Jack:
son was issued, and she has entered
into recognizance, to appear before
the next Court Of Sessions, when the
matter will undergo judicial investiga-.
ton. The post-mortem examination
was conducted by Dr.. Andrew Yates.
