CHEAP HELP,-Russian newspapers are
conducted on an economical basis, unless a
certain publisher lies. A Moscow news
paper incurred the displeasure of the govern
ment and an officer was sent to arrest the
proprietors. The only person in the estab-
lishment was the publisher and he was
sternly summoned to fetch the editor The
publisher went up stairs and returned
speedily with large pair OF scissors, say
ing, Here, sir, is the editor" The officer
was rather disconnected, but soon recovered
himself, and exclaimed, more sternly than
ever No nonsense, fetch me the sub-ed-
itor." Again the publisher departed and
again returned, this time with a pot of
paste and a brush. "These, sir" he said,
"are the sub-editors.'

AN ORANGE COUNTY oBsERvER's ILLUSION.
To THE EDITOR OF THE HARALp:-

AN ORANGE COUNTY oBsERvERs ILLUSION.
To THE EnlroR OF THE HnRALD:-
Your paper OF yesterday contains communication
from Mr.. II. Young, Of Goshen, mentioning that he
the satellites Of Mars we'll those Of JUPITER
by reflection in a looking glass. Allow me TO remark
that any bright point will give two or three images In
looking glass, when II Is inclined under an angle
The brightest image is that formed by the svcring on
the back fainter one by the reflection OF the upper
surface Of tho glass, and often still fainter one by
the three reAectons-arst from the silvered surfaces
this is reflected internally by the upper surface
and then again by the silvered surface. when
the object is quite bright aud the mirror
be seen three, tour or Ave. &c., all in a lue but
growing fainter and fainter by the loss oil light caused
tho surfaces Of the glass; These images will be
further apart when the glass is thick, and nversey
close together when using mirror Of thin glass II is
now some twenty years ago that somebody looked at
Jupiter by means Of such a reflection and secing two
extra images fainter than the pal one supposed
them TO be the moons This was published. aud has
since deluded many persons All that is necessary TO
convince any of the illusion Is to observe that tho
position OF tna supposed satellites Is always the
every night II using the glass, under the same
angle, ard changes when the anglo changed, while
telescope will, from night to night, show con-
satellites, sometimes three, sometimes two
and always quito different from the illusion OF re-
decting glass mirror. metallic mirror having only
rejecting surface will always show only one
luminous point 1t appears that Mr.. Il. Young was
not informed OF the fact that this error was exploded
twenty years ago, when he imagines he has seen
the OF Mars Let him look IN this ut any Of
the brighter and he will one, Two three
extra images which to those who have never seen the
moons Of planets In telescope may be held 10 be
satees Tho satellites OF Mars are SO small and faint
that only tho best reractng telescope ever made has
enabled observers to see them They are still invis-
ibe for all other astronomical observers. even those
having superior instruments at command This alone
should be enough to throw doubt into any reasoning
mind that the mere reflection by looking glass could
make them SO easily visible. did not suppose that
this still prevailed, and think It duty 70 dis
