SCIENCE AND THEOLOGY.

i. Johnson said of Goldsmith History
of Animated Nature that he could make
: Il - charming as fairy tale; so in out
way Of estimating things. we should say
OF Cuvier's Animated Kingdom" that il
was az fascinating as section of St
Thomas, and equity full of attractions to
God and disclosures OF Him. Compare
tive anatomy. as applied TO fossils, the
) changes of the earth's floor from outer
: fire or from central heat, from the furrow-
ing pressure of water. the destructive
and reproductive action of rivers, the gi-
gantic sledges Of glaciers, and changes OF
climate depending on astronomical laws.
the creation. transmutatiop, and eXtinc-
ton Of species-all these are more or less
provinces OF geology, which give rise to
many interesting and improving theologi-
cal speculatioHs; while in the hot contro-
= ysEsy between the opposing geological
doctrines of Catastrophe and Uniformity,
both are equally interesting and accepts-
BILE to theology, though our bias may lean
more to the former than to the latter the
DRY. even while the balance of proof may
incline towards the doctrine of uniform
ity. Again, when we come to such
sciences as ethnology and glossology. we
z seem to see God acting as the trainer and
novice-master of his own human family.
But nowhere is God more manifest, moth
ing Ia science. perhaps, is more religious
than the comparison OF the two doctrines
OF GrAvitation and Polarity. In Gravita-
ton we see nature, at once keeping her
self in motion and at the same time tend
ing to repose. 1t is rs if the huge ribs and
beams and framework OF Omnipotence
were being laid bare before us. 1t is as
. II we saw it now tremulous and vibrating
with the last touch of the creative hand
lifted off from it. While Polarity, that
mysterious secret, teaching that like re-
pels like, and unlike attracts unlike, repre-
sents to US .'opposite elements rushing
together, opposite motions reducing each
other to rest" Gods huge creation labor
= ing in every particle, like vessel at sea
finding concord in discord, reaching unity
by opposition, and so-mighty, complex,
onward universe entering into her rest.

Oury au- swers, No apPOintee to any office can aold for a longer term than the person making a vacancy could have held the oaicc, except where the qualified cleo tors have failed to ill the vacancy by election. h fact, the law in positive terms limits the time for the holding of office by an appoiatee until the next general electien succeeding bis appointment. As I un- derstand the present situation of af- fairs in this county, the terms of all the present board of supervisors expire on December 31, 1878 and that no member of the old board can possibly, under any legal view of Ehe case, hold oyer should the electors of the county see proper to elect q full board"

Death of John MOrrissey.


John Morrissey, eX-Congressman
and State Senator from the city of New
York, died at half-past seven o'clock
on the evening of Mayalst. He had
seemed quite well and without any
unfayorable symptoms until little
after the newspapers were brought in,
when he motioned for his glasses to
read. About half-past one o'clock in
the afternoon an unfavorable change
occurred and he sank rapidly. After
ward Catholic priest was sent for
and promptly administered the sacra-
ment of Extreme Unction. Although
Mr.. Morrissey was rapidly failing, he
seemed conscious to the last. His
wife and domestics were present Mr..
Morrissey died clasping the hand OF
the priest. Mr.. Morrissey's business
partners were there, but nothing is
known by them regarding his business,
or whether there is any will. The fun
eral was in Troy.

One of the most interesting event

One of the most interesting events
of the last week was the opening OF
the Paris Exhibition. These inter
national exhibitions have oflate years
become so common that possibly they
are beginning to lose their attractions
for the public mind. Yet there is al
ways something important associated
with them in an educational point of
view; and the exhibition opened on
Wednesday in the French Capital
perhaps takes precedence of all 9th
ers in the admirable arrangements
which have been made, and in the
wonderful collection of articles open
for inspection. Almost without OK
ception every civilized nation is rep
resented in some department; and in
art, science, manufactures, agricult-
IRE, and, indeed, in all known
branches of education, the display is
said to be most unique and fascinat-
