Letter from Count de- Chamhord.


Count de Chambord has written
letter to NJ. D'Chesnelong, one of the
delegation from the Right, which re-
Gently waited on him. The Count says
misapprehensions have arisen tending
to obscure his policy, which is as clear
as day. He owes the whole truth to
the country. He is asked to sacrifice
his honor. He emphatically declares
that he retracts nothing, curtails moth
ing of his previous declaration. The
claims of yesterday foreshadow what
would be exacted tomorrow. He can
not inaugurate strong reign by an act
of weakness. He energctically refuses
to relinvuish the white flag. He indig-
nantly repels the insinuations that he
mistrusts the valor OF the soldiers. On
the contrary, he seeks to con6de to
them all he holds dear. He
ignores none of the country's glo-
ries, and continues: "We have u
great work to accomplish, which l am
ready to undertake any moment. This
is why I wish to remain entirely Us I
am. We're enfeeblei to-day, I would
be powerlcss tomorrow. The issue at
stake is the reconstruction of society
and the Insurance Of law, order and
prosperity. Especially should we not
fear to employ force in the service OF
order and Justice. Conditions and
guarantees arc spoken Oft. Were any
required by the Count of Paris, who
came to me- spontaneously, at the
dictates of patriotism? ! preserved
intact our traditions and liberties, and
have right to reckon on equal conf
dence." The letter includes "My
personality is nothing; principle is
every thing. France will see an end to
her troubles when she understands this.
l am the necessary pilot, alone capable
of guiding her into port, because
have mission of authority. France
cannot perish because Christ still loves
her."

The Owl That Looked Like Thur)ow.

An amusing anecdote is told in con
nection with one of the Arundel OWLS
On one occasion, at dinner at Arundel
En~tle, the butler caused great merri-
meut by coming into the room and
saying in solemn voice, "May it
please your grace, Lord 1hurlow has
laid IN egg." The late DUKE of Nor
folk was asked if the story was true.
His grace said, "Yes, we have always
believed it in the family; but do you
know why the bird was called Lord
Thurlow? That's almost the best part
of the story Lord Thurlow and his
daughter were once staying at the cas-
tie, and the young lady went to see the
owls. On passing one Of them she
stopped suddenly, and exclaimed; %,
how like papa!' and the bird was ever
afterwards called Lord Thurlow." 1t
must have been Il wise looking bird,
for Lord Thurlow looked exception
ally wise, even for q judge. Fox, the
statesman, once said: II suppose no
man ever was SO wise as Thurlow
looks

Discovery in Physics.

Professor r. 8. McCulloch, of WASH
ington aud Lee University, Virginia,
one of the most prominent scientists of
the South, informs the Smithsonian
Institution that he has made an origin
al and important advance in the devel-
opment Of physics. He has succeeded
iu deducing algebraically, from one
single formula the whole of mechanics,
including as molecular mechanics the
subjects Of electricity, heat, light,
chemical action, elasticity, and magnet
ism. He takes what is now called the
doctrine of energy to be convertible
only, and not destructible, and sounds
upon it complete mathematico-phys-
ical structure embracing the whole of
formula. Tho only exceptions are
electro. statical and electro-dynamical
induction, and these will form the sub
ject of special investigation. 1nduc-
tion the Professor believes to be mere
ly the development of polarity at dis
tance without ascribing it to one or
two fluids, or any fluid at all, but the
mathematical theory is perfectly re-
concilable with the Franklinian hypo-
thesis, and Franklin's fluid may be
Fresnels luminiferous ether. Attrac-
ton and repulsion remain ultimate and
incxplicahle physically; theologicallx.
however, they are manifestations of the
Divine will. Professor McCnllocli

This friend nova month or 80 only

And when he grew weary or lonely,
You icsted TO cheer him the while
He priced the q veet solace you proffered,
When tor gloom you gave laughter instead;
You arc glad Of the gift that you offered.
Because-hc is dead!
And becau4c he is dead we shall gather
The buInanest relics there De,
fAll tcndtrer, dcarcr, the ratEerD
And pile up Pagan suffice!
Shall we whisper his name under breath
Is not iife in its living, as holy
And solemn as death?
As death? What is death, but the ending
Of all that the mortal can claim?
Tho drop OF tho mantle descending
From the souls mounting chariot OF flame!
Who wept for the prophet when gnerdoh
So grand was requitiDg all loss!
Only grief FOR the lett! with the Jordan
OF trial to cross!
All! surely the angels who love ~,
Must yearn with an ache OF desire,
To point us the pathway above us,
Still bright with the trail OF the fire
Mus: burn with compassion to urge us,
As hopeless We gaze on the tide,
10 smlte till the faith-smitten surges
or doubt shall dIvide.

With the calm that would mellow your talking
If be sat in your presence tonight:

With prouder cootentment- nt-and shred
No brightness from ont his narration,

The Wood Fumes Of Nevada,

Much is said about the wood fumes
of this state, but it is not probable that
many persons who have not visited the
numbering regions OF the Sierra Me-
vada mountains have proper appre-
citation of their utility, extent or cost.
The general idea OF them outside of
the state would appear to be that they
are nothing more than so many rick
ETY. troughs, set up on poles, which,
serve as q makeshift by means of
which to send lumber from the top of a
single hill to the level ground at its
basis. The fact is that the majority of
these fumes are very substantial struc-
lures, in most instances several miles
in length, the construction of
which has cost from $4,000 to
$780, 600. They are built upon
certain grade, and pass over and wind
around many hills in their c,urse to
the valleys, or other places where the
wood and lumber carried down may be
reached by teams, or by side tracks
from the railroad. These fumes are
built SO large that timber Is inches
square and as many feet in length may
be foated down them. Down a proper
~ constructed aume these large tim
bers are doated by quite a small head
of water; and not single sticks, but
long professions of sticks. Wood and
lumber are carried off by the same
means as fast as thrown into the fumes,
and dumped miles away in an almost
incredibly short time. BY the use of
the fume, wood, lumber and timber
can easily be brought down from
points in the mountains which would
be quite inaccessible to teams. In
some places, where the ground is very
steep, there are to be seen dry fumes, if
we may so call them, or troughs, down
which wood is sent without the aid of
water. These, however, are but straight
shutes, running from the top to the
bottom of a single hill or range of hills.
In some places, also, there are chutes
formed by laying timber track, down
which huge logs are sent. Along these
tracks, where very steep, the logs rush
at railroad speed, leaving behind them
a trail of fire and smoke. Such log.
ways are generally tt, be seen about the
lakes, and are so contrived that the
logs leap from them into water of con.
siderable depth, otherwise they would
be shivered to pieces and spoiled for
use in the manufacture of lumber. The
piles of wood to be seen at the bottom
of some of the wood fumes are i'm
meDse, amounting to thousands upon
thousands of cords Virginia city

Discovery Of tine Prophets Tomb

Discovery Of tine Prophets Tomb at
Tisne.
NJ. Guerin, who has been engaged
for tho French Government in scien-
tatic researches in Palestine, has recent
ly read paper in a geographical con-
gress at Lyons, describing his discov.
cry If the tomb of Joshua, the son of
Nun. The tomb, he states, is situated
at Tigne, the heritage of Joshua In
the hill at this place are many tombs,
and this one has vestibule, into which
the light Of day penetrates, supported
by two columns, while the place is fur
nished with nearly three hundred nlch-
es for lamps, and is solled evidently
from their use. This argues that some
periodical celebrations were held there.
This vestibnle gives entrance to two
one containing fifteen re-
for coffins, and the other but
one. In this latter one M. Guerin
supposes the body of Joshua to have
been deposited, and he thinks he he's
discovered strong evidence of this in
the statement that the sharp flint knives
with which Joshua used to circumcise
the children of Israel at Gilgal were
buried in his tomb. On removing the
debris which covered the floor of the
tomb, a large number of flint knives
were found, and on making excavations
at Gl]gal. the passage of the Jordan, a
number of similar knives were also
discovered. The pillars in the vesti-
bule of the tomb are surrounded by a
fi1let in the style of Egyptian monu-
ments, and this would argue a period
of about the time of Joshua. NJ. Guerin
also believes he has found the tomb of
the Maccabees at Medieh, which he
thinks corresponds with the Modin of
the Book of Maccabees.
