FIGURE /.

Supposea person to be standing at
o; is evident he will see the whole
of the sun, so that to him there will
be no eclipse at all; while within the
lightly shaded region PIP, the sun will
be partially eclipsed, and more so as
the observer is near the centre. This
region wherein the sun is only par
TALLY eclipsed is called, by astrono-
mers, the penumbra.
Within the darkest portions shown
in the above diagram is q region
where the sun is totally eclipsed by
the moon. The shadow is cone-like.
with its base on the moon, and it's
point extending towards the earth.
This point of the moons shadow, fig
ured above, almost exactly reaches
the earth's surface, and this shadow,
when it reaches the earth, is so near
ly point that it's diameter is not gen
orally more than q hundred miles
consequently each total eclipse is
visible only along a belt of territory
which may not average more than one
hundred miles in width
An eclipse of the sun is only total,
at the same instant Of time, in a circle
or belt of the foregoing dimensions;
but the rotation of the earth and the
movement of translation of the moon
combined, cause the cone of the shad-
ow to tlavel in reality over very
large surface, tracing as it were a
dark curve on the face of the earth.
If, during the progress of the eclipse,
the gradually diminishing crescent
OF the sun is watched, nothing re-
markable is seen till very near the
moment of its total disappearance;
but as the last ray of sunlight van
lshes scene of unexampled beauty
and grandeur breaks upon the view.
The globe of the moon, black as ink,
is seen hanging in mid air, surround

The Republicans are already lay
ing the wires to Nominate Grant for
the Presidency in 1880. The Repub-
lican party enjoyed the privilege of
wholesale stealing during Grants
Administrations in the past and long
for repetition of their opportunities.
1t is not hard to recall the debauch-
cries Of the reign of Grantism in this
country, the perversion Of public
trust, the dishonesty, the proselytism,
the receptions, the intrigues and the
tacit encouragement that was given
to all kinds of crookedness, even to
the harboring and shielding of polit-
ical scoundrels and the encourage
ment, of extravaganza and bad govern
ment generally. The country has
had enough of Grant and he is laid
on the shelf Don't bring him out,
for voters of America will never elect
him again.

Discovery Of a Cave near Browns
Vile.

/ sa1Os
The Brownsville Clipper, last week,
tells of cave found near that place
which is about six feet in circumfer-
ence. The sides and to pare as mooth-
ly polished as the nature of the rock
will admit. In the floor of the cell,
crossing each other at right angles,
are cut grooves half an inch deep CIV
ing the floor the appearance of chess
board; the space between the cut
lines being six by little over nine
inches. On every alternate square is
cut in denai relief the figure of bird
about four inches long and three
inches high; these figures are all pre-
cisely alike. The figures have APP
parently been made smother than the
natural rock by rubbing into the
coarse surface seine kind of fine dust
or cement, thus giving the figure a
very fine polish. Lying across the
eastern end of the cell was human
skeleton, five feet long, The face being
pidNCd W w al I'D tAC Quill ic S2el-
eton, except some parts of the head.
crumbled to pieces three or four days
after the cell was opened. On each
wrist was heavy metallic bracelet
one and half inches wide and a
quarter Of an inch thick; a similar
band was on each arm half way be-
tween the elbow and shoulder, the
two bands on each arm being con-
nected by chain of the same mate
rial, fourteen inches long and weigh
ing nearly half pound. There were
also aDkletS of the same material and
weight, and like band below each
knee, connected with the anklets by
two straight bars Of metal, one on
the back of the leg the other on the
front; there were no remains of
clothing Of any kind. A piece of
metal weighing five ounces, shaped
somewhat like dog or wolf, lay un-
der the head. Behind the shoulder
were found seven circular pieces of
metal, three inches in diameter, each
with square hole in the centre. At
the feet Of the skeleton, leaning
against the rot k, was a dark body a
foot long and three or four inches
thick; This proved to be two pieces of
confierous wood lain together and
wrapped tightly with " hat appear
ed to be long strips of some kind of
bark, the whole being saturated with
something having a faint bitunin-
Gus smell. In the center Of the pack
age between the two pieces OF wood
was found neatly fitted plate of
metal-a kind Of bronze-nine inches
long by five wide, and about three
eighths of an inch thick. The plate
was in good state of preservation,
being covered on both sides with en-
cravings of birds and dogs, and
chain of hferoglyphics around the
edge of the plate, on both sides.
These different articles were plac-
ed in the hands OF an archaeologist
for examination, and he has been en-
abled TO give what he claims to he a
complete translation of the hero
glyphics on the plate. The engrav-
lngs on the edges of the plate is SINH
lar to the cuneifOrm dissertations
found in the tombs or Assyria and
Babylon; and being translated, reads
thus: "1His is the Graue ofthe Moth
er of the Pee Wees.n This although
correct English, is still mysterious,
yet the archaeolOgist who is investi
eating believes he has strack the be-
ginning OF curious and interesting
history.

Disaster to Lock No. 5.
The Brownsville cyipper says:

The Brownsville clipper says:
Shortly after the packet had passed
through lock No. 5. two miles above
this place. last Friday afternoon, the
outer wall enclosing the lock passage
fell, or rather settled down about
four feet. The accident was caused
by the continued washing of the was
ter undermining the cribbing first
and then the wall. The wall will
now necessarily be torn down and
rebuilt on more solidi base. The
work will require from two to four
months and during this time naviga-
ton above this point will be suspend
ed; there is no boat, not even the
Jennie Walker, above. There is a
possibility that the little steamer
Juno may be hoisted over the dam
and used to tow the freight of the
Packet Company to points above.
This accident will prove disastrous
as we'll to the Packet Company as
the Navigation Company.

There seems every prospect that
the United States Government is
doomed to he expense and anxiety
Of another Indian war. An open and
disastrous encounter has taken place
between large party of Indians at
Umatilla, in Oregon, and the force of
General Miles. The latter appear
to have been outnumbered; and it is
very evident that great decision and
energy will be required to suppress
these warlike tribes. IT. is announced
that large parties of the Indians are
crossing into Washington Territory,
and there is general uncertainty and
alarm about the situation. The
special Sioux Commission in Dakota
has gone to the White Clay country.
AT the same time serious charges are
being made of inismanagement and
fraud at the Crow Creek Agency.
In this is to be found the cause of
much ofthe trouble with the Indians.
The management of their affairs has
been left too much in the hands of in
competent and dishonest men. A
change in this matter would soon
lead to change in other respects.

We most cordially unite with the
entire press of our State in urging
upon the people the Importance OF
patronizing and sustaining West Vir-
GINA University. In every respect
it is a superior institution. Most of
those which have been arrayed as its
competitors, and which have succeed
ed to some extent in attracting West
Virginia students fail to compare with
it in any essentialirespect. AS a mat
ter Of State pride, other things being
equal, our people ought to stand by
their University. But when it is in
finitely the superior of all those whic
are now seeking to rival it, there is
no reason under the sun why Yves
Virginia people should not give their
own institution the decided preference

Tire in Mt. Morris.

On Sunday the 9th inst, the quiet
village of Mt. Morris, was the theater
of great excitement and no small dis
aster. About II O'Clock m. whilst
Mr.. Jacob South, and his family were
enjoying their dinner, fire from a de-
fective chimney communicated to
some combustible material in the
second story, when discovered the
flames had made to much progress to
be subdued. In fact the building
which was'a large, new. two story
frame, was so wrapped in the frey
element that very little of the furn-
iture or household effects were saw
ed.
The flames also communicated to
an adjoining or contiguous two story
frame building, the property of Mr..
South, but occupied by Rev. J. j Ma
son. This building was also entirely
consumed, but Mr.. Mason's effects
were principally ell saved, but in
damaged condition.
