Prot. Robert Mallet of London, rec
ognized authority in earthquake and
volcano literature, has recently urged
again one of his well known theories
as to the mechanism of volcanic erup-
tions. Taking for his text an account
of the last eruptions of Trolladyngja, n
volcano in Iceland, he refers to the
earthquakes which preceded that event
as evidence in support of his views.

Ruling Of the Attorney General.

Attorney General Devens has given an
opinion reversing the ruling made by Secrc-
tary Sherman that unexpended balances of
appropriations for carrying out treaties with
the Indians should be covered into the treas
ury at the end of two years. The attorney
general decides that the Indian treaties are
contracts and that appropriations for carry
ing them into effect are therefore excepted
from the operations of the act Of June 10th,
1874, providing that unexpended balances re-
naming for two years shall be covered into
the treasury. He holds that such balances
remain available for the time for carrying out
existing treaties. - y

An Emperor's Courtship.

Mr.. Blanchard, Jerrold, in his volume
just published in London, tells the con-
clusion of Louis Napoleon's courtship. It
| was at the New Year ball in 1858 that as
the company were passing to the supper
room Mademoiselle de Mont 10 and Mad
am Fortoul, wife of the minister of pub
lie instruction, reached one of the doors
together. Madame Fortoul, mastered bv
that jealousy Of the fortunate lady which
was general at court, rudely rebuked
Mademoiselle de Montijo for attempting
to take precedence of her. The young
lady drew aside with great dignity before
this affront, and when she entered the
supper-room the pallor and trouble in her
face at once attracted the notice of the
emperor as she took her place at his ma
jesty's table. In great anxiety he rose
and passed behind her. chair to ask what
had happened. 'What is the matter2
Pray, tell me-"
The marked and sympathetic attention
of the emperor drew all eyes upon the
lady, who became covered with confu-
sion. II implore you, sire, to leave me-

That Troublesome Civil Service.

The troublesome question as to wheth-
er members of the national Republican COM
mittee holding federal appointments come
within the scope of the recent order forbiding
officials to take an active interest in politics
or be members of political organizations, was
brought to the attention of President Hayes
within day or two by Assistant Secretary
Mccormick. Mccormick, as secretary of the
national Republican Committee, had received
the resig nation of Chauncy J. Filley, of Mis-
souri,, who is a member of the national COM
mittee and also postmaster of St. Louis. The
matter was laid before the president as in
volving not only the retirement of Mr.. Filley,
but of Mr.. Mccormick and several other
members of the committee. After consider
ing the matter fully, the president decided
that, as this committee would have no politi-
cal duty to perform for some three years there
could be no objections to federal officers re-
tanning their membership; as the members
would not be engaged in active political
work, they did not come, the president
thought, within the city limits of his recent
order. -
