their surprise is not at all unaccount

FrightfuI ChirOgraphy.

The late George M. D. Bloss, of the
Cincinnati Enquirer, though held in re-
gard socially by nearly all who knew
him, was somewhat eccentric. His &C.
centricity, if it may be SO called in this
connection, took it's most aggravated
form in his manuscript. He was per-
haps as widely known for the peculiari-
ties of his penmanship as he was for his
undoubted ability as political writer.
His writing was frightful scrawl, abso-
lutely illegible except to few compost
tors, who by patient and continuous
practice, learned to put it in type, sub
ject t. extended corrections in the mar
gin of the proof. Specimens of his
copy" have found their way to nearly
all the printing offices in the United
States, through the medium of travelling
printers who had worked in the En-
qa1irer Office, and who carried small
pieces away as curiosities.

Sabbath or Sunday.

The Presbyterian general assembly,
in session at Brooklyn, adopted reso-
luton the other day approving the use
of the term 'Sabbath" in designating
Sunday. Most people are in the habit
Of using these synonymous terms indis-
criminately. Still there is a shade Of
difference in their meaning, when used
critically. Sabbath is a Hebrew word,
meaning rest, originally applying to
Saturday, and the significance of the
action taken by the general assembly
is that it asserts belief In the assumption
that the Lords day Of the Christians
ought to be observed IN accordance with
the Levitical law. A declaration on
this point was called out by the fact
that Prof. Hopkins, of the Auburn Theo.
logical seminary, has maintained the
opposite doctrine. The general assem-
bly, takes this indirect way to protest
against the Sabbatical heresy of the
learned professor.

Printers Protest.

The Government printers at Washing
ton have united In petition to Congress
demonstrating against their project to
place their pay upon the same basis as
paid In Baltimore, Philadelphia and New
York. They give the following reasons
why they receive more pay than any
other class of printers: One-half of the
current work of Congress is tabular, to
compose which great experience is re-
quired. The average composition, who
can no more do it than the average
Washington printer could make such a
book as "Devinney's Price List" An
other large portion of the work is scien-
tifc, interlarded with the technicalities
peculiar to astronomy, geometry, orni-
thology, perpetology, zoology, conch-
oIogy, ichthyology, botany, metallurgy,
ETC., ad ininitum, each perhaps having a
style of its own as to spelling, capitaliza-
ton. etc., according to the taste or ca
price of the authors, mostly European
scientists. Treaty work and diplomatic
correspondence are replete with French,
Spanish, and other languages, while
even the plainest matter has style won
derfully mysterious to those pot edu-
Gated to it. It is not said that all these
intricacies cannot be mastered, but it is
asserted that the average compositor OF
New York does not encounter them as
every day matters as here. Even the
general Job work of the office differs es-
sentially from the classes met with in
New York, while the Congressional
Record, in the care bestowed upon its
composition, assimilates fine book work,
and this result is evolved out of manu-
script often illegible as the chirography
of Horace Greeley, besides being faulty
in penmanship, and the four divisions
of grammar.

Origin and Source of Petroleum.

At first it was held by many that Pc
troleum was result of distillation from
the bituminous Goals which were found
in its vicinity, and this belief was
strengthened by the fact that some of
the very bitunninous Goals. such as
camel and Boghead coal, afforded large
quantities of similar oils on being dis
titled; but, although this is very prob
ably the source of small amount of
oil, yet the larger part of it is now be-
ieved to derive it's origin from rocks
lying below the coal measures, since the
oi-bearing rocks are mostly older than
the carboniferous formations.
Some investigators have absorbed a
vegetable origin to petroleum, but most
authorities agree in attributing it to
animal as we'll as vegetable agencies.
Shales are the most common oil-bearing
rocks, and in their formation the or
ganic materials would be finely divided
and protected from oxidation. The oil
bearing shales commonly show few
vegetable remains, and Dana observes
that the absence of distinct fossil animal
and vegetable remains points to an
abundance of delicate water plants or
intusorial or microscopic vegetable life
as the source of the organic material con-
tanned in them. Limestones, on the
other hand, are frequently full of animal
fossil remains, showing an animal origin
for the oil in them. although it is by no
means agreed that the petroleum in GER
tain imestones was derived from organic
remains in the imestones and not from
other strata below them. In whatever
shape the fnely-divided material was
originally present, it would be finely
diffused through the mud, and protected
from atmospheric agencies, and subse-
quently the hydrocarbons would be
formed from them, probably at but a
slight elevation of temperature, produced
by the same agencies which have caused
elevations in the temperature of the in
t4rior of the earth's crust at various
points.
Dana has further pointed out how
petroleum miht be formed by the re-
actions of ther oganic vegetable remains
alone, the abstraction of some carbon
and oxygen, as carbonic acid, accounting
for the formation of the lighter oils.
while escape of some marsh-gas from
less confined material would account for
the heavier oils.-Prof. Cornwall, in
Popular Science Monthly.
