The astronomers Of Europe are just now excited
by the rediscOyery Of LeyerTior's planet, Vulcan.
Some twenty years ago the great French astrono-
mcr announced that certain perturbaons in tho
orbit of Mercury could only be accounted for by the
existence OF another planet still nearer the sun;
even as the perturbatons of Saturn had enabled him
TO discover the planet Neptune Within three years
after Leyerriers announcement French observer,
Dr. Lescarb9ult, detected Vulcan in his transit
across the suns disk; but inasmuch as he has not
been seen again since then, most sdrdns have begun
TO doubt whether he was seen at all. But the
latest Partisan journals inform us that two eminent
astronomers at the Observatory in that city-'M.
Porro and NJ. Wolf of Zurich-haye just found Vul-
can during his tsansit before. Ii Is not stated
whether their observations were sufficient for the
precise calculation of the elements of the planet.
Kepler,s law, however, would reduce the time of
yulcan's revolution around the sun to about
month. This youngest of the planets must swim in
a sea of almost unimaginable light and heat, and be
unmhabltablo by any form of life known to us.
Moved by the fire near the Centennial Exhibition
last Saturday. the Grand Jury has presented to the
Court of Quarter Sessions. rs nuisances, the great
number of structures of all materials sizes,
and conditions-the paTasitical edifces which have
been erected in the neighbOrhood of the Park. The
Jury, especially considering the immoral displays
and diversions given by depraved characters in some
of these shantes suggests that they should be closed
and removed and particularly that those destroyed
should not be regretted. The escape from loss of
life and of valuable effects last Saturday a
row one and IL will be piece of stupendous folly,
very discredtabe to the Philadelphia authorities,
who alone have jurisdiction in the premises, If pre-
cautions Of some kind against q repetition of the
peril shall not be taken. We are Informed that in
spite of the refusal of the Council to authorize it,
this undesirable rebuilding has already begun in
plain day. SO much more necessary the interference
of the tribunals to whose the safety of those
sojouning in Philadelphia is directly committed.
Gen. Eckert who has long been recognized as the
best practical telegraph manager in tho country, is
teaching the Western Union the road to cheap tele-
uaphy. He adyertises in our columns this morning
still another sweeping reduction, applying to all
Offices in New-Yerk and New-Jersey, and between
all offices In New-York, New-Jersey, and Pennsyl-
vania, and nil in New-England. 1t is a pity that
the Western Union should wait to be driven in this
matter and should leave to its younger rival all the
credit Of disposition TO meet tho public demand.
The Stock Exchanges in New-York and Phils iephia
have given Gen. Eckert's lines their recognition,

As Goldsmith Maid had already done the
swiftest trotting on record, the attempt to
force her this year to faster time scarcely de-
served success. She has attained an age that
would fairly entitle her to rest upon her laurels
The readiness with which bids are made at
the large trade sales in this city has been
already remarked as indicating a recovery
from business depression. This was further
illustrated yesterday in the auction sales OF
carpets and hosiery.
At the Ophtbalmological banquet, Mr.. Walter,
the proprietor of The London Times, gave
variety of interesting facts concerning defec-
tive vision and its consequences. The speech
is noteworthy as showing that a man OF keen
observing powers may notice matters outside of
his daily business with almost as much accuracy
as those who are engaged in special scientific
researches.
The Servians are recovering from their re-
cent disasters. Gen. Tchernayeff has still
$4,000 men under his command, and holds a
line Of eight miles, extending from Djunis to
Deligrad. There are besides eight battalions
holding possession of the Notifications at
Alexinatz This display of strength will aid
the Powers in bringing Turkey TO terms, par
ticularly as the Sultan faYors peace.
The troops that are in search of the Sioux
have thus far met little success. The hard
ships encountered in these weary marches are
almost as formidable as the foe; but there
will be a chance of rest and comparative
comfort for both men and animals in the
valleys of the Black Hills, and doubtless that
region will seem as much like Paradise to
this expedition as it did to the Grst explorers.
In the Transyaal Republic, the descendants
Of the Dutch settlers are greatly outnumbered
by the natives, with whom they are now at
war. This accounts, in part, for the severe
defeat which President Burgers forces have
experienced The Beers have, however, with
stood many conflicts, and may be expected
eventually to subdue the blacks 1t would be
the interest of the neighboring Orange Free
State and even of the British colonies to save
the young Republic from destruction.
