Fenelon, Archbishop of Cambray, author
of Telemachus, when his illustrious pupil
the Duke of Burgundy lay dead in his
coffin, said to the mobiles of the court,
who stood weeping around the corpse !:
" There lies my beloved prince, for whom
my affection was equal to the tenderest
parent; nor was my affection lost, for he
loved me in return with the ardor of son.
There he lies; and all my worldly happi-
ness lies dead with him. But if the turn
ing of straw would call him back to life,
1 would not for ten thousand worlds be the
turner of that straw in opposition of the
will of God"

Blue Sky and White Clouds.

The ethereal blue color of the sky is
due to minute PARTICLES of matter which
float in the air. Were these particles
removed, the sky would be dead black.
1t is q frct in optics that exceedingly
fine portions Of matter dispense or scat
ter the blue rays of light, coarser por-
tions scatter re rays, and still coarser
portions scatter all the rays, making
white light. An atmosphereis full of
aqueous yapor, the particles of which
difuse white light in all directions.
When these particles are enlarged they
become visible in the form of clouds.
The yapor PARTICLES of the white clouds
are supposed to be finer and lighter
than those of the dark clouds. That
the diffusion of light in our atmosphere,
the blue coloring of tie sky and the
colors of the clouds, are due to the
presence of matter floating in the air,
las been conclusively proven by Tyn-
dali. On passing a beam of sunlight
through n glass tube, the beam is rem
dered brilliantly visible by the rehec-
ton OF light from the dust particles
floating in the air contained in the tube.
But on removing the dust particles,
which is done by tiItcring the air by
cotton wool, or causing the air to pass
over a flame, the bem of light il no
Onycr visible in the tube.

Fremonts Fallen Fortunes.

The Chicago Inter. Ocean says "Jno.
g. Fremont is in San Francisco. A few
years ago his presence there would have
been the signal for n series of receptions
and oyations, but now he receives only
a passing notice. The notoriety he had
achieved and the position he had created
for himself have been swept away, and
to-day the explorer of the Rocky noun
tains walks the streets of California's
chief city comparatively unknown.
When Gen. Fremont was in France he
was arrested, tried and found guilty of
raising money on the Memphis and FL
Paso railway bonds by false representa-
tlona, and sentenced to Imprisonment
for a term of years. He made good his
escape from the jurisdiction of the
French courts and came to the United
States. His brother-in-law, Baron Boi,
leau, who was tried on the same charge,
was not as fortunate, and he is now
serving his term of imprisonment.
Baron BOileau's wife, a daughter of
Ihos. IL. Benton, lately died abroad
under very painful circumstances. Her
sister, Mrs. Fremont, is a woman of
rare attainments and great ambition.
Her hopes have withered, and she now
beholds her husband, who once almost
grasped the highest prize in his coun-
gilt, declared a felon by n friendly
republic"

The BUSY Rec

10 is estimated that there are two
million bee-hives in the United States,
Every hive yields, on an average, a lit
tie over twenty-five pounds of honey,
The average price at which honey is
SOLD IS twenty-five cents a pound so
that after paying their own board the
bees present us with a revenue of over
eight million eight hundred thousand
dollars. To reckon it another way, they
make n clear gift of over a pound Of
pnre honey to every man, woman and
child in the vast domain of the United
States. Over twenty three and one
third million pounds of wax are made
and given to us by these industrious
workers. The keeping of bees is enc of
the most profitable investments that orr
people can make of their money. The
profits arising from the sale of surplus
money average from fifty to two hun.
dred per cent. on the capital invested.
