MS movements at the outbreak of the
present Struggle, and SO Unchecked
the liberty of advance he allowed to
his colossal foe, and all the dinlo-

will, at most, show final spasm of
frantic violence Just before crossing
either the Styx or the DOsphOrus. ="
But with a change of dOctOrs-Or
rather generals-this moribund
specimen of anarchrOnism has grown
wonderfully lively, and besides
warding off successfully nearly all
the lunges of his gigantic antagonist,
has managed to plant some pretty
stingiIg blows on his unWeildly
body. Of course, if the struggle is
allowed to continue, size, weight,
and northern persistence must tri-
umph in the long run; but the Turk
has already relieved Europe from an
incubus of dread owing to its ex
travagant estimate of Muscovite
power, greatly raised the opinion of
the world with regard to his own
manhood, and even in his decadence
proved himself the liueal descendant
of that belingerent race before
whose laundering march all Europe,
a couple of centuries ago, trembled.

inclination of his equator to the plane
OF his orbit differs only about four
degrees from that of the earth, so
that the changes of his seasons are
very similar to our own. Exactly as

cause the variation in the distance of
the planet from the sun, during his
yearly journey round his orbit, is
much greater than in the case of the
earth.
As we have already remarked,
several conditions must be satisfied
IN order 10 obtain what astrOnO-
mers term a good "seeing" of the
planet. Unfortunately for the anna
teur observer, it is impossible to
orlng out the most interesting fea-
lures with telescope of very low
power. Even with a powerful in
strument the unskilled observer will
find some difficulty in obtainino a
satisfactory observation. Still.
something of interest may be dis
cerned with low power. To the
naked eye the planet now looks as
large and bright as Jupiter, and
has fiery glow that readily ex-
plains why both the Jews and the
Greeks called him the "Blazing
One". Under the present favorable
circumstances, glass of about two
inches aperture will show the rud-
dy color (no longer diffused over
the whole planet, but collected in
spots, the poplar snow caps, and
dim confused markings on the sur
face. In our northern ATTITUDES the
observation should be made when
the planet Is near the meridian.
With more powerful glass, dark
spots may be seen, which appear of
a greenish or blush hue to many
observers. These are supposed to
be seas and oceans on the planets
surface, the bright spots indlca-
ting land. This distinction is based
on the unequal reflection of light by
land and water. Mr.. Loekyer re-
marks that if we admit that the
dark spots indicate water, the dark
est among them are those portions
which are most land-locked.- Charles

Autumn THE WOODS.

Is there any puTer, swaeter, conception
aud verse in the language. than this?
Every hollow full of ferns
Turning yellow ia their turns:
Struggling brambles fierce and wild,
Yielding berries to the child;
Oakballs tumbling from the tree,
Beech nuts dropping silently.
Hosts of leaves come down TO die,
Leaving openings to the sky;
BluebellS, foxgloves gone to seed,
Everything to death decreed:
Nothing left of flowers or buds,
Such Is autumn in i.ne woods
And so there is an Autum known
To the heart. 1t feels alone.
Fearing its best days are past;
Sees the future overcast.
Fond acquaintance broken throhgh,
Friends departed, friends untrue;
Human flowers cold and dead,
Covered by a grassy bed;
Homes. late blossoms putting out,
Withering soon, and flung about
By cruel winds; dread doubts and fears
Finding vent In sudden tears;
Yes. there is an autumn known
To some hearts thus left alone.
Yet, there is this thought after all
Ferns may fade and leaves may fall,
Hearts may change or prove untrue,
All may look as these woods de-
Though sad Autumn here is given,
Spring-time awaits the just in Heaven.

Is Mars Inhabited.

Is this neighboring world the
abode of living creatures? This
question is beyond the present power
Of science. to answer. But would it
not be strange beyond expression if
world, with land and water, and
changing seasons, and apparantly all
the conditions required by life, SO
like our earth that it Is even possible
man could exist upon its surface,
should roll on through the ages unin-
habiLed and unenjOyed? First Of all,
we notice that the proportion of wa
ter to land on the surface of Mars is
much less than on the surface of the
earth. We have about three times
as much water as land, but on Mars
the relative areas are equal to each
other. Land and water are dis
trlbuted very differently on Mars, as
is evident from the brief description
we have given of the planets sur
face. ''A traveller either by land or
water" says Mr.. Proctor, "couId Wis
it almost every quarter of that plan
ct without leaving the elem ent on
which he had commenced his jour
neyings." Ii he preferred voyaging
by water, he could travel some 80,
600 miles, always in sight of land,
and generally with land on both sides;
and if he journeyed by land, his inn
its would be no less extensive. The
prevalence of long winding inlets
and bottle-necked seas has also been
pointed out as a feature wholly nm
like anything exhibited on the sur
face of the earth.
The bright white island lays i'll the
southern ocean, to which we have
before alluded, is certainly strange
peculiarity. If, as has been suppos-
ed, It's brilliancy is due to snow and
ice, it must be covered with enormous
mountains. Confined to a tract rela-
lively so small, and unlike anything
exhibited by any land in a similar
latitude on the planet, this certainly
must be regarded as a very remarka-
ole feature.
The diameter of Mars is about o,
600 miles, SO that the surface OF che
earth is considerably more thah Twice
as great. His density is ABOUT lou[
t;,Sss thai of water, so that gravity at
his surface is surface of our earth.
One of our pounds would weigh only
a little more than six ounces ON the
surface of Mars. His orbit is con-
siderably eccentric, SO that the light
aud heat he receives from the sun
vary greatly with his position. This
produces an inequality in the length
OF winter and summer of the north
ern and southern hemispheres. His
year contains about six hundred and
eighty-fve days, aud his day, as de-
termined by MIR. Proctor, is about
thirty-seven and One-half minutes
