Mr.. HAYES has struck ont for himself a new
southern policy so far rs Louisiana and
South Carolina are concerned. 1t is that in
these two Sutos thorc shall hc no,c olec-

the Lcgl-atuie; that the troops now
there shall rcmain till after the
new election; that the candidates
then elected shall be authoritatiy,ly
recognized as the legal Governments Of
those States; and that, upon their rccogni-
tlon, the troops Shall be withdrawn. We

Some weeks ago the then Secretary Of the
Treasury resolved to retain the entire amount
due to tho Union Pacific for Government
transportation. instead OF onc-half. NJ has
hitherto been the custom. OF course the recent
visit of the new Secretary of the Treasury TO
Mr.. JAY GOULD had no bearing upon the action
of his predecessor. The visit was purely one
OF ceremony, and the earnings Of the Union
Pacific for Government transportation will con-
tlnue 70 be entirely absorbed hy the Treasury.

What the sur is Made Of.

A discovery of importance to science
IS announced by DIR. Henry Draper, of
Hastings on the Hudson. 1t is well
known to students of the spectrOscoPe
that while the black lines that indicate
the presence of metallic vapOTs are SO
abundant in the solar spectrum "a TO
leave no room for doubling that most, if
not all, the metals are igEited in the
sun. there i yet an absence of the lines
that characterize nearly all the nom
metallic substances. Hydrogen is ex-
cepted from this sweeping rule, but
there are many rcasons for chasing that
gas with the metals. Various theories
have been put forward to explain the
absence of nOn-metallIc lines from the
solar spectrum, and the fact has even
been used to throw a doubt over the
nebular hypothesis, which necessarily
assumes that the constituents OF the sun
can not greatly differ from those OF our
earth. DIR. Draper's discovery, If 1t be
confirmed, shows that at least One-and
probably several-nOn-metall substances
are present in the sun. In "A paper read
before the American Philosophical
society last month, he gave the details
Of experiments which appear TO prove
that oxygen forms one Of the suns con-
stituents. It's presence IS indicated in
the spectrum, not by black bat by bright
lines. To make this more apparent, DR..
Draper has photographed with the spec
trum Of the sun a comparison spec
trum," of common air, the air being
ar. The comparison spectrum gives
tie bright lines Of oxygen and nitrogen,
and also (frOm the terminals Of the bat
terry used) those of aluminium and iron.
The lines of the metal serves to check
the accuracy with which the two spectTa
of the sun and of air-are matched

A Mrsferious Now Star.

The new star in Cygnus has gone
through a performance tLat Is a sore
puzzle 10 the men Of science. As its
gradually waning light comes to be
examined by the spectroscope, it is
found now II have the features Of
planetary nebuIa. For few years past
the spectroscopists have been pluming
themselves upon the important accession
10 the proof Of the nebUlar hypothesis
that was furnished by the appearance of
the nebuIa when their light was
analysed. The assertion was freely made
that the irresolvable nebule consisted
largely of the simple gases, principally
hydrogen they were supposed to be in

TO form suns. But here is a star which

Tomb of Peter The Great

On an island of the Neva are the fort
ress and Cathedral of st. Peter and Stl
Paul The spire which is exceedingly
slender, is gilded and surmOunted with
an angel and cross. 1t is three hundred
and seventy-one feet from the ground TO
the top of the Cross. Many readers will
recall the story of the miraculous ascent
of this spire by Russian peasant in
1880, who undertook the task to repair
the angel with nothing but a rope and
nail to assist him in the ascent. The
church contains the remains of several
of Russia's sovereigns in marble caskets,
among them being Peter the Great,
Catharine the Great, Alexander l., and
the late Emperor Nicholas. The most
distinguished mOnarchs lie in the corners,
apparently the poorest places, but
according to the Russian ideas, the
position of honor. Not far from the
above church is Peter the Greats cot
tage. There the famous boat---made by
himself---is shown, together with the now
tutered sail. In the larger of the two
rooms is the jeweled image which Peter
had with him in the decisive battle at
Poltava, where he conquered the Swedes
and established his greatness. The little
apartment was bright with the light of
many tapers placed there by those who
have faith in the efficacy of the shrine to
prosper their undertakings.
