THE DELEGATES AND INTRICACIES OF AN IN
TERNATIONAL EXCHANGE OF CIvILITIES.
From the Ohio State Journal
inappropriate the following from private
letter from General Comfy:
DO you know what it is to the minister to
have man-of-War visit his post: First, the
admiral sends his staff officer to report his
arrival. Then they take drink. Then the
minister runs up his flag, and sends a dispatch
to the minister of foreign affairs notifying his
malesty's government that the admiral has
arrived, and desires to salute the flag. Then
his eXcellency replies, and sets the time when
the admiral may shoot, and his majestys big
guns will be all loaded ready to reply, gun for
gun. Then the bOmbardment takes place
Then the admiral calls on the minister, with
his Staf and all their good clothes. Then they
all drink. Then the minister goes aboard the
man-Of-War in his good clothes and the admi-
raiS yaWl. Then they all drink. When he
leaves the vessel, after being presented arms
to. and all kinds of bother, he only gets about
thirty yards away when his ears are torn and
his head burSted by the big guns of the vessel
firing fifteen gun salute. The mariners have
their oars peaked and their eyes on the minis
give horriblya CHASTITY smile, as if he really
enjoyed the honor of having his head burSted
in this way. Then the admiral comes ashore
with his staff and the minister takes him
We go first to the minister of foreign af-
fairs, who tells rs when we may have an
audience at the palace, to present the ad-
mlral and other officers 10 his majesty
Then we visit the other ministers. the Gov
ernOr of Oahu, the Justices of the Supreme
Sourt, and the Marshal of the Kingdom, then
we takea drink. Then the admiral invites the
minister to lunch and they take drink
Next day or so, the minister takes the whole
party to the palace, and they are presented in
due form to his majesty. The admiral reads
a little speech,in which he tells his majesty how
glad we are to see him, and his majesty reads
a little speech i'll which he replies how glad he
is to see us. Then we talk awhile with all the
grandeeS, and after backing out of the pres
ence sign our name in little book, and the
admiral hurries on board tue vessel to get his
kidneys relieved from the pressure of his sword
belt as soon as possible Meantime all the
other eNcellencieS. representing every country
under heaven. have been sending notes to the
minister begging him to name tile happy day
when it will please the admiral to send a boat
for them to come aboard, and have a salute
fired for them. Then the Frenchman always
gets mad because he did not get as many guns
as he thinks he ought to have had, and the
minister has three months correspondence on
his hands before that is settled. You think it
is all over now? The trouble is only about to
begin. There are dinners, lunch parties
dances, SerenadeS visits to be paid, and the
devil to pay if the foreign representatives do
not receive their return call before the week
is out.

Relation Of Battles to storms.

1t has been observed for many centuries
that storms, or meteorological changes of a
striking nature, occur during or at the close
OF great battles. Whether these results are
to be regarded as condolences, or as the
sequence of physical disturbances in the
settled. OF the fact that storms do occur in
close connection with battles there is no
doubt During the late war in this country,
hardly an action of any magnitude took place,
which was not accompanied with wind and
rain. The operations on the Peninsula under
Mcclellan were apparently productive OF con
tinuous rains, and in the great fights around
Richmond and Petersburg meteorological dis
turbances occurred which at times seriously
lmpeded military operations. So too abroad.
The loss of the great battle of SOlferinO was
attributed by the Austrian commander to
terrlhc thunder storm which burst over the
field and Obscured movements of powerful
masses OF the enemy. The decisive battle OF
SadOwa, which closed the AuStrO -PruSSian
war in 1866, was in like manner accompanied
by violent storm. Napoleon was heard to
remark that SO certain was he of causing rain
by the explosions of his artillery during bat
ties, that he disposed his troops in way to
take advantage of clouds when they formed.
unreasonable objection can be urged against
the theory that great explosions, producing
violent conclusions il the air, may change its
hygrOmetric conditions and cause cOndensa-
ton OF moisture. Besides the descriptive effects
produced in great battle, there Is the evolu.
gunpOWder and from the masSing together of
large bodies of men. Altogether, it is not diff
hcult to find satisfactory causes for sudden
meteorological changes during great battles,
and therefore wind and rain are not to be re-
garded as simply coincident with active pro
cceedingss in war. 1t may be urged that our
National anniversary, the Fourth of July,
is usually clear, Notwithstanding the vast
amounts of gunpowder burned in all parts of
the country This does not however. meet the
case; the explosions occur all over the country
ana are comparatively upon a small scale
There Is not usually decided concentration
of noise at any one point. If this occurs, a
shower is pretty certain to take place. Last
year the day was particularly noisy in Eastern
violent thunderstorm of the season burst over
that section of the country. The question is
one OF much interest to meteorOlOgiStS, and is
worthy of more careful consideration than it
