Saint Fanny.

Saint Fanny was a notable housewife.
Her house was o temple of neatness.
Kings might have dined upon her
staircase. Now, her great delight was
to provide all things comfortable for
her husband, hardworking merchant,
much abroad, but loving his homo.
Now, one night he returned tired and
hungry, and by some mischance there
was nothing for supper. Shops were
shut, and great was the grief of St.
Fanny. Taking of bracelet OF seed

The Fate Of Theedosia Burr.

A correspondent of the New York
Evangelist writes to that newspaper to
correct story now going the round
land founded on q tradition) that Mrs.
Theodosia Aston, the only daughter of
Aaron Burr, was q victim of Gibbs, the
pirate.
"It is a pity" says the writer, "to
spoil this tragic sensation; but hap.
pening TO know the truth inpart, I give
it to the, public. The history Of Mr..
Burr daughter; I believe, remains q
mystery, as to her fate. She probably
perished at sea in q storm, which is
we'll known to cause many q wreck be.
tween New York and the Carolina coast.
About the year 1880, while the writer
was q student in Columbia College,
the pirate Gibbs was taken on the high
seas, put in irons, and brought to New
York for trial. The hte Commodore
Kearney, who was tor many years the
senior officer in the United States
Marine Service, was boarding at the
same house with the writer. Az soon
ds an opportunity presented, the Com,
nodore made known his purpose TO
investigate the doom Of Theodosia
Burr.
Commodore Kearney called at the
prison, and as Gibbs we'll knew nothing
could save his life, he freely recount
ed. the. names of the vessels he had
taken; and all the incidents of interest
connected with his daring career. But
he utterly denied having any knowl-
edge whatever of Mrs. Alston, the YES
sci on which, she embarked, or any
thing relating to her fate.
Commodore Kearney, on reporting
the result of the interview, gave it as
his deliberate judgment that the ira
dltion connecting Theodosia Burr's
name with the pirate Gibbs was q
myth. And any person familiar with
Commodore Kearney as qualified fol-
the examination, will coincide with his
judgment"

Few know the terrible import of the
recent meeting of the American Scien-
tito Association at Portland. In it's
development of new. horrors in..storo for
poor humanity it was awfully prolific.
Its members We'd with each other in
predictions Of coming convulsions of

with truths brought to light from the
deepest and darkest wells of. SCIENCE,
That humanity il to be- obliteiated VIZ
the gist of five papers, read by five of
the most scientific, trusted. and cele-
brated members of the Association. A
terrible and total extinction of animal

tion being which Of the i've horrors
would first develop itself and perform
the work Of universal destruction.

heat, With It's extinction as a producer
Of warmth and light. He quoted Faye,
Secchl, and others to prove that the
material of the sun is gaseous, and that
these gases are retained by some: kind
of crust. Through this surface the
tumultuous. inner composition is con-
stantly squirting and outspurting, with
grand violence. He thinks that this
crust may consist of sheet of de-
scending rain-not Of water of course,
but of the materials whose vapors are
known to exist in, the solar atmosphere,
and whose condensation and combina
ton are supposed to furnish the solar
heat.,' AS this peculiar rain meets the
gaseous substance of the sun it coales.

- sort of bottomless ocean, resting
upon the condensed vapors underneath,
and pierced by ipnumerable ascending
jets and bubbles. " This action of the
spm envelop will be quenching of
the great orb upon which We depend
for heat and light. Il will grow small

excluded from the economy Of the uni-
verse. The result will be intense cold
