Lost Suns, or Planets.

During the last two Or three Gen.
turies, upward of thirteen fixed stars
have disappeared. One of them,
situated in the northern hemisphere,
presented a peculiar brilliancy, and
was so bright as to be seen by the
naked eye at mid day 1t seemed to
be on fire, appearing at first ola daz-
zling white, then of a reddish yellow,
and lastly of an ashy pale color. La
Place supposed that it was burned up,
as it has never been seen since. The
confagration was visible about sixteen
months. How dreadful! A whole
system on fire: the great central lum-
mary with its planets, with their
plains, mountains, forests, villages,
cities, and inhabitants, all in flames,
consumed and gone forever. Here
we have presumptive view of the
truth and the solemn illustration of a
singular passage in very old book
"The heavens shall pass away with a
great noise, the elements shall melt
with fervent heat, the world also, and
the works that are therein, shall be
burned up What has been will be
again. Our sun and moon and stars
and earth will be destroyed by fire.

The New York World, speaking
of cremation, gives the following in
stance of the neatness of the thing -
'1n the Vienna Exposition this mat
ter was practically exemplifed. On
one of the mysterious shelves was &
bottle marked No. 10, containing
three and three-quarter pounds of
fertilizing material, the gross result Of
an Italian gentleman, who had evil
dently never been in such reduced
circumstances before. The entire cost
of putting him into glass case was
just two shillings and four pence,
English money. This of itself is an
item of sufficient importance to carry
conviction to any sane man. 1t only
takes three hours and about half a
cord Of wood to put a millionaire into
a very small glass bottle. The only
difficulty to be apprehended is the in
evitable increase of family jars.-
However, after death, it will be al
ways possible to put stopper in,
which during life is sometimes diff
cult"

WHOLE NO. 1861
Abuse of Old Horses.

A correspondent of an exchange says:
I feel deep sympathy for old horses;
1t is common practice in this country
to make old horses bleak the colts and
too often work with them for years.
1t is hard for an old horse to work
with a colt Or young active horse.
Old horses, like old men, are often
capable of performing more hard work
than some young ones, who can beat
them for an hour or more. The old
man wants to take moderate jog, and
can hold out all day but little i'm
moderate exertion for few minutes
unstrings him for p erhaps all day.
An old horse driven at the top of his
speed for a few miles spoils the days
journey When once made sore or
strained, the result is stiffness the next
day. The old horse should not haul
his load to town and then be forced to
trot back. 1t does not injure him as
much to do heavy work with slow mo-
ton as to do light jobs at fast gait.
Again, the old horse requires more
time to eat his meals and rest his
nerves. Of all animals the horse is the
worst abused. Although he has been
our faithful and profitable servant yet
in his old age the lash is applied to
force out his youthful yigor. The old
er he grows the more he feels the lash.
He is often turned out doors to give
place to the colts. Too often the neg
lect and abuse heis subject to, because
he is little old, result in greater
loss than is made up in the care of
young horses. The last part of
horses life may be more profitable if
rightly used than the first part.
There is more comfort and less danger
in working old horses. We under
stand them and they understand us (;
and we should be willing to conform
in some measure to their wishes. 1t
would be more humane as well as pro-
fitable to use them as they should be
and as long as it would pay, and then
take them out and shoot them down.
But the practice is to knock them a
bout as much as they will bear to pay
well, and then trade them off to some
more inhuman wretch than ourselves.
The old servant has gone among strang
ers, and he receives no sympathy in his
last extremity. We do not blush to
say that man who has enjoyed the
profits and pleasures of good horse as
long as he was profitable, and then
shoves him off among inhumanj jockeys,
is an inhuman, treacherous and suspi-
cious friend. The man who does so
without regard to how the horse may
be cared for is, in my estimation, OF a
suspicious character; and I never see
horses abused so as to excite pity but
my symphaties are directed to the
mans wife and children also, if he has
them.

The professor of natural philosophy
in a certain college recently gave the
class problem to think of during the
night, and answer the next day. The
question was this "If hole was
bored through the center of the earth,
from side to side, and ball dropped
into it, what motions would the ball
pass through, and where would it
come to a state of rest p The next
morning student was called up to
solve the problem. "What answer
have you to give to the problem :"
asked the professor. "Well, really"
replied the student, 81 have not
thought of the main question, but Of
preliminary one. How are you to
get that hole bored through 7"
