TRANSIT OF MERCURY.-The transit OF Mercury
which took place on the 9th inst. which was visible
at Honolulu, ian account OF the Astronomical OBJ
servations made here was given in our issue of last
week., visible all the United States of
North America, aud occupied seven hours in its
passage. Transits OF Mercury are much more fire.
quent than those of Venus, the average interval
being less than ten years. Thus the transit of the
9th inst will be followed by Others in 1881 and
1891 while after the transit of Venus in 1882.
will occur till 2OO4, period of 122 years. No pre-
vious transit of Mercury has aroused SO much in
terest among observers as that of the 9th of the
present month, because il is hoped that its obser
walton will help 10 decide several important prob
lens, especially that of determining the orbit of
Mercury, aud throwing more light the question
of an intra-mercural planet, and furnishing renewed
datA for estimates of the suns distance. Two
French Scientists were officially sent out to make
The necessary observations. One is NJ. Charles
Andre director Of the Observatory in the University
OF Lyons, and the other, NJ. Angot, Professor Of
Physics at the Lycee Fontanes in Paris. The place
selected by them TO make observations, was Ogden,
Utah, for two reasons; it is elevated divide"
of the Continent, favorably situated for dryness OF
climate and purity OF atmosphere
Mercury is too small 10 be seen by the naked eye
in it's passage the sun therefore. the delicate
and difficult observations and calculations have to
be left to practiced eyes and mathematical brains

brought to the Marshal that a native mans body
was lying in pool Of blood at the spring on the
Pail road to Koolau. The Marshal immediately
send ont the necessary force OF police in charge Of
Mr.. McDnd. OF the Police Station to bring ia The
body OF the native. When Mr. McDutf aud force
arrived at the place where the body supposed
TO be- they found the native had revived got his
horse and proceeded on his way il not rejoicing, at
least, content that his time for dying had not
vet come. The truth is, the aforesaid native whose
name we did not learn, was overcome with benzne,
fell Of his horse aud sustained some injury there
from but not OF serious character, and after "
ing sometime absquatulated, leaving behind him
some evidence in the shape OF a goodlY quantity OF
blood, that he received pretty severe cut on the

Mr. AekIen,s Card

The following is the material portion
OF the card of Congressman Acklen, of
Louisiana, issued to his constituents
after the committee OF prominent demo-
Gratis of that State had decided that he
ought to withdraw from the congressional
canvass because of his failure TO explain
away satisfactorily to them recent scan
da! with which his name is connected:
''The political features of the case are
for you, my constituents, to judge of,
and after the election | shall ask that
each parish in my district appoint one
of her citizens, making in all commit
tee of twelve, to pass upon the social
question in this case and render their
verdict. Not that my complete vindica-
ton by the gentlemen of the republican
conmi tee on this point is not amply
sufficient, but | prefer that you of my
district who have so honcred me, should
you then deem so vile SANDER worthy
of notice, shall appoint the judges in
this case, when party considerations and
political expectancy will be out Of the
question. TO you, my constituents, and
to you only, do owe my present posi-
ton, and TO you, and you only, will l
leave deeisionas to my olitical couise.
My confidence In your good common
sense is as great as that you have shown
in me by your splendid and continued
support, and | feel we'll assured that
you are not to be affected by an old ex-
pfoced scandal, tricked in new dress for
the occasion, sprung in the heat of
political campaign, and hot from the
hands of a notorious blackmailer."

Naturalization IN New York.

SUPERVISOR DAVENPORT TO THE FRONT
AGAIN-THE COURTS SET AT DEFI-
ANCE.
NEW YORK, Oct. 16.-There is a pros
pect of fight between the democrats
and j. |. Davenport. the United States
supervisor of elections. Yesterday Judge
Friedman decided that voter had right
to register on papers issued in 1868, and
that no election officer had the power to
go behind the certification of the Supe-
rior Court or Common Pleas. Late last
evening MIR. Davenport issued orders to
his supervisors and marshals to dlsre-
gard the opinion Of Judge Friedman land
to refuse to register men with the suppos-
ed fictitious papers also to sieze such
papers and send them to him. To-day
the Federal supervisors are carrying out
his instructions all over the city. In the
lower wards they have taken many natu-
ralization papers of 1868. In one of the
election districts of the sixth ward a
supervisor was asked if he was register
ing citizens in 1868. He replied, "Of
coarse not. What do we care for Judge
Friedman's decision. We are .obeying
Mr.. Davenport" care you taking the
papers from the appliGan is for registra-
ton 2" "Yes, we are gobbling them up"
The democrats are getting out manda-
muses. to compel the registration of those
who hold the papers.

Fish as Brain Food.

The theory obtains among many scien-

right kind of fish. There are many men
of many minds and many fish of many
kinds, therefore there must be fish
adapted to each particular mind.

pupils blubber.
For the eritic-Carp.

ABLooD-CURDLINGs STORY comes from
the Alps about an English lady and her
brothel-in-law who tried to ascend the
Piz-Palur, which is one of the highest
peaks. Although accompanied by able
bodied guides they lost their way in a
fog. One of the guides tumbled over a
precipice, dragging with him the lady and
the brother-in-law, all three of these per-
sons having been tied together with a
stout rope. The remaining guide, who
seems to have been man OF herculean
strength, held on by the rope and kept
the three from dropping into the abyss.
The Englislman happily had his little
hatchet in his pocket, with which he cut
several notches in the icy side of the
precipice, and so all three climbed safely
out of their scrape, but in disagreeably
benumbed condition.

Daily Los Angeles herald., 1878-03-24

THOSE of our farmers who are
beginning. to wall that their crops
will bring nothing this year, be-
cause of their universally prolific
WELD, should reflect that tEe.r very
abundance will create n new con-
ditien of things heroabouts. Los
Angeles county is only beginning
to emerge from its former normal
condition of a pastoral county. Tn
til the present year our crops have
not been sufficiently large to in.
vite shipping enterprise. All this
is now bravely changed. The
wheat crop will be so abundant
that the manufacture here OF Hour
on an extensive sca,e will be in-
augurated by the Messrs. Lanker-
SHIN & Van .Nuys. The crops OF
barley and the other cereals will
be large enough to load q dozen
ships, and the ships VIII surely
come, as they always do when the
shipments arelarge enough to H.
vite their presence We shall
fairly start out this year on the
new era. Only those farmers will
have to sacrifice their crops who
have not been prudent enough to
keep a money reserve. Those who
sell carly-some even selling be-
fore the maturity of their crops
will have to take such prices as are
offered to them. And, even. If it be
true that large prices may not be
realized this year, everybody VIII
at least have something.
