The Tribune publishes a letter
from Thurlow Weed, in which he
affirms on trustworthy information,
that on three occasions during the
| first year of the rebellion, Queen
Victoria contributed essentially to
the preservation of peace between
this country and England. On two
occasions Her Majesty discounten-
anced suggestions from the French
Government which meant war. The
first was a proposition for the joint
Intervention of France and England,
the object being a recognition of the
Confederate Government. The next
was the introduction into parlia-
ment, after an interview with the
French Emperor, of a resolution re-
pudiating our blockade. The pOpu-
lar feeling in England was so strong
ly in favor of the Confederate States
that our friends in parliament and
in the cabinet, but from the convic-
ton that their course was tacitly ap-
proved by their sovereign, would
have found themselves unable to
successfully resist those hostile meas
ures. When the dispatch demand
ing the surrender of Mason and Sill
dell was read by Lord Palmerston,
to the Queen, and the consequences
of refusal were explained, Her Ma
iesty was startled and distressed at
the idea of war with America. TAX
ing the dispatch to the Prince Con
sort, who, then in his last illness,
was sitting in his apartment, the
Queen asked him to read it, saving
that she thought the language and
spirit were both harsh and prempto-
ry. The Prince eoncurring in the
opinion with Her Majesty, subjected
the dispatch to erasures and inter,
lineations, in which amended form it
was returned to the Premier. In re-
lating this incident to Sir Henry
Holland, the Queen added, ''that was
the last time the Prince used his
men,

The Rev. DR.. Cuyler, in the EUam-
gezist, in paying his respects to what
he calls Swarm weather Christians,
says: "There is another meterologic-
al phase of religion. 1t may be
styled warm weather piety. It's
regulated by the thermometer The
standard it goes by is not the
warmth of inward love- for Christ,
but the warmth of the atmosphere.
Its zeal cools in proportion as the
weather grows hot. When the glass
gets above go the inward emotions
are congealed and piety is past feel
ing.' 1t is too hot to worship God
for two hours on the Sabbath, but it
is never to hot tqtol for Mammon
six days during the week" Is the
fault in this case altogether with the
warm weather Christian of the laity?
Are there not warm weather pastors
also? This is the season of vacations
and all over the land the ministers
are hurrying off for rest. Nothing
wrong about that. But what is the
practice in nine cases out of ten2
The fat-salaried minister goes off to
the seaside. or the mountains, and
his place is supplied by exhorters,
home missionaries, or pensioners un-
fit for active duty, and who are not
good for much either in cold OF hot
weather. Is it therefore remarka-
BILE that the laity should let down
some in their religious tone and
grow lax in duty? For instance,
Mr.. Beecher has had his salary rails
ed to 100000, and now goes off on
a three months vacation, with Tom,
Dick, and Harry to take his place.
1t will be remarkable if the Plym-
outh Church people who have to
stay at home and swelter become
warm weather Christians? Suppose
a doctor or lawyer should go off
on a vacation and fill his place with
incapables, how long would they re-
tain their practice? If their custom
ersa demand the best, then why
should not religious congregation
also demand the best. rl@

but one of them, and examined the
ground. In the whole space which
they had traversed he found but one
stalk of corn disturbed. This was
nearly scratched out of the ground,
but the earth still adhered to it. In
the crop of the quail he found one
cut worm, twenty-one striped vine
bugs, and one hundred chinch bugs,
but not a single grain of corn.

watch their motions. They pursued n

them uniformly to the opposite end,
returning in the same manner over
the next FIVE rows. They continued
in this course until they had explored

Distance of The sun.

Prof. Daniel Kirkwood, Professor
of Mathematician in Indiana University.
contributes the follwing to the In
dianapolis Journal:
''The earth's mean distance from
the sun, as deduced from Encke's dis
eussion of the observations made on
the transits of Venus in 1861 and
1859, was 5,29S, 900 miles. Till with
in few years past the accuracy of
this determination was not called in
question. So lately as 1854, DIR. Lard
ner. in his Hand book Of astronomy,
affirmed that Encke's value of the dis
tance could not vary from the truth
by more than its three-hundredth
part. Quite recently however, astron,
omers have been led, by various con
siderations, to regard 5he distance as
somewhat too great, and hence the
results of the observations in Decem-
Der, 1874, with the improved instru-
ments of modern construction, have
been looked for with a lively interest
The discuSsionof these observations
mot yet been completed. 1t is has
known however, that the resulting
value of the suns horizontal parallax
dose not differ materially from
eight seconds and eighty-seven
hundredths of a second. This CORES
ponds to a mean distance of 1875,
900 miles. We are, therefore, nearer
to the sun by S,423,O0O miles than
was believed but a few years since.
The distances of the otherplanets are
to be diminished in a corresponding
ratio-remote, amounting to no less
than 1000, 100000 miles"

Des Maines, May 10. Judge Dillon, of the
United States court, yesterday rendered an i'm
portant decision, affirming the validity Of the la.
railroad tariff of March 49, 1873, and its applca-
tion to the Burlington road, now operated by the
the c. B. & Q. Co. The decision rests upon two
grounds that the State never made any grant TO
the Co., in its charter, of exclusive right, and if it
did, the right was surrendered by the company to
the State when it accepted the land grant of SO,
agreeing that the State might thereafter enact
such rules and regulations as it saw f not in
sderaton with the act; and the act of Congress
making the grant
The court denied the company's application for
an injunction and dismissed the BILL and there
fore allowed an appeal to the Supreme Court of
tho Tnited States.

The Turf.
Lexington, May l3. There were two races to-
day. The first was mile heats with three entries,
Grinsteads Light Coin, Richards Misfortune
and Rodes' Searcher. In the pools, before the
first heat, Searcher sold for $50, Misfortune $2S,
and Light Coin So Only one heat was run, as
Searcher dstanced both horses At the start he
got off ahead and kept the lead throughout, grad
ually drawing off from the others and coming
home in Al 3-4, the best time ever made. The
club decided as both horses were distanced there
was no second horse, and the excess over 81 500
for which Searcher was to be sold, was to 60 to
his owner. He was put up and bought for $5, 600.
The second race was one and one-fourth miles,
with five entries, Astral selling as the favorte for
$50 against S22 on the field.

Toledo, May l3 The Blade publishes an clab-
crate report, carefully compiled from statements
by competent parties, at $50 points in Ohio, Indi-
ments indicate that one-q quarter to e-thrd of the
crop of winter wheat has been killed. but that has
been nearly Offset by the increased number of
acres sowed and the qantity of spring wheat will,
if everything is favorable henceforth, bring the
whole production up to that Of avarage crop.
About one-quarter Of last years crop still remains
in the hands of farmers. No considerable guam
tity of wheat ground is reported as having been
plowed. The amount of corn being put in this
year greatly exceeds last year.

ca it was 290 per cent, was that the United

her resources than by England.
Professor Adams also affirmed that the worst
plan well stuck to was better than the best plan
changed often.

ton at length. He objected to the broad state.
ment that there had been do progress in monetary
systems since the invention of bills of exchange,
