The Late Prof. Henry.

The death Of Prof. Joseph Henry. at
Washington, D. c., removes one of the
most distinguished scientific men of
America. Born in Albany, N. Y. on
the L th of December, 1897, he received
common school education, and, after a
course of academical study in his native
city, accepted, in 1926, the appointment
of Professor of Mathematics of the AL
bany Academy. Becoming Intimately
connected with the study of electricity.
he was the first to prove that in the
transmission of electricity for great dis
tances the power of the battery must be
proportional to the length of the con-
ductor. He was also the first actually
to magnetic a piece of iron at a dis
lance, and invented the first machine
moved by the agency of electro magnet
ism. Other original and important de-
monstrations of electrical power followed
in 1929 and 1881, and among others was
one similar to that afterward perfected in
Morse's magnetic telegraph. In 1882 he
was appointed Professor of Natural
Philosophy in the College of New Jerr-
sey, where he continued his important
and interesting experiments in electric
ity. Ing1S37 he visited Europe. When
the Smithsonian Institute was organ
lied, in 1916, he was appointed it's Sec
rotary and intrusted with its principal
direction, maintaining this position, we
believe, until his death. ~ II N

HARD TIMES.
A New and Novel Theory

A correspondent of the New York
Daily Bulletin propounds new theory
OF the causes OF the last commercial cri-
sis, whose devastating effects have been
SO widely felt. The universally Of the
collapse leads him to reject all the local
American causes assigned for it, such as
the currency, the protective tariff, polit-
lcal disturbances, etc. He finds it's prime
mover IN the revolution in communica-
t1on and transportation consequent upon
the rapid extension of telegraph lines all
over the world and their connection by
submarine cables-the vast increase of
steamship traffic and the opening of the
Suez canal, whereby the products of the
world were thrown on the markets weeks,
months, and even year sooner than
they otherwise would have been. This
theory is illustrated by the change in the
East India cotton trade. It is but ten
years ago that cotton grown in India was
taken, often In seed, in carts to Madras
and Bombay. This required weeks, and
the preparations for shipping consumed
q good deal of time. The voyage to En-
gland was made around the Cape of
Good Hope In slow vessels that took six
or eight months to reach Liver
pool. By the time the cotton had
been manufactured into goods in
Lancashire, and reconveyed to
India, not less than two years generally
elapsed. All this is amazingly changed.
The cotton is carried to Bombay by rail
road instead Of bullock carts, shipped
through the Suez canal instead of by the
Cape OF Good Hope, and, passing through
! the looms OF Manchester, returns to India
In cloth in less than half the time consum-
ed under the former system. The writer
declares that this acceleration has been
such that at least one full India cotton
crop has been marketed, made into
goods, and thrown on the market of the
world ahead of time. Or, to state the
case differently, the world has, during
the last five or eight years, taken one
crop Of India cotton (and consumed it.
for the stock is less by about 500. 900
bales than it was four years ago) more
than has been grown.
The conclusion drawn is that the
world has not been producing too much,
but has marketed more than it has pro-
duced. The writer thinks the full eff
tect OF the revolution has been felt, and
that, as no further considerable i'm
provement can be made in transporta-
ton, al that now remains is that some
thing or anything should happen to
restore general confidence. These views
have the merit Of novelty, and are IN
teresting, even if they cannot command
general assent.
The Kenosha telegraph. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1860-1888, 1878-05-23

he thought, false to him. And this old
friend told him something that made him
feel suddenly that he might come to life
again.
"sShe never married, she said-it
was woman. She lives in the old
house now. Other men loved her, but
she never loved any other man but you.
! We all know that.
sAnd then the ghost said to himself
- Forty years of life lost and went
down to the green country place to
haunt his old love, and hear her say
she was sorry to see him."
sob, dear oh, dearp sighed the
little old lady in brown. Chow could
she help it? All her beauty gone, all
her youth what could she feel but sor-
ry, and just ghost herself"
| She arose and turned away. He arose
and followed her, putting his arm about
her waist.
"Priscy," he said, "you are the only
woman I ever loved. Is not that some
thing for man to say, when it is true as
gospela"
eyes," said she; s'and I almost be-
lieve you, for-for I never cared for
any one else either"
"Then why not do our best to be
happy now, Priscy? Why not marry
each other and live again, not two poor
old ghosts9"
"We1l, because folks would call us
two old fools" said she.
"Well, let them," said he.
"Very WELL" said she, ct don't
care"
Then the old gentleman in grey kissed
the old lady in brown, and said, !" Whai
day shall we set, my dear?"
What her answer was may be guessed
when the village bells, one month later,
rang the wedding peal of the old lovers.

Singular Scene in the Ohio Legis.
u. Iature.

TheLegislative trial of John O. Conner,
member of the Ohio House of Repre-
sentatives from Montgomery county, is
described by the corresp ondent of the
Cincinnati Gazette as "beyond question
the most remarkable scene ever wit
messed in the Ohio Legislature" At
the evening session, when the trial was
concluded, every inch of standing-roo
was occupied. Gov. Bishop sat beside
the Speaker. Senators filed the spaces
on the floor not required by members.
The galleries were crowded with ladies,
and the lobbies were lined by men.
O'Connor had at his elbow two lawyers
and an unknown Catholic priest. The
chief question raised by the prosecutors
was whether O'Connor should be ex-
PEELED or mis- seat be declared vacant.
DR.. Norton argued for expulsion, be-
cause he feared that, if the seat were
declared vacant, all the bills which
O'Connor's vote had passed might be
declared invalid. Menser and sew
eral other members combated this
view, holding that the acts of an
official were valid until he was declared
ineligible by proper authority. This
view finally prevailed, and the seat was
vacated by vote Of 81 to Is. Before
the vote was reached, O'Connor, who
viewed the arguments for the two meth

dds of punishment with equal indiffer-
ence, obtained the floor and made a
pathetic appeal for mercy. He contend
ed also. on the prompting of his lawyer,
that the House had no right to go back
OF the election. The plea was listened
to with curiosity and patience, but had
no effect on the final result. The his
tory of this O'Connor case is now famil-
lar to the people. O'Connor was elect
ed to the Legislature from the Soldiers
Home at Dayton. After he had been
sitting some months it was discovered
that he had formerly been an inmate of
the Michigan State prison, his term of
imprisonment beginning Sept. 80, 1865,
and ending three months afterward. He
had no pardon or abridgement of his
term of imprisonment which operated
to relieve him of his political disabili-
ties. These facts were proved before
the Legislative Committee, though
O'Connor strenuously denied them.

why Senator Mitchell Changed His
Name.

saw seated on sofa in the Senate
chamber the other day two men, whose
presence in Washington is a coincidence
If nothing more. These two men were
Senator Mitchell, Of Oregon, and Repre-
sentative Thompson, of Pennsylvania.
These men were law partners in Butler.
Pa, in 1860. Mitchell had studied law
with Thompson, and subsequently be-
came his partner, under the firm name
of Thompson & Nipple. The young
firm was going on admirably in business,
but Nipples domestic relations we're of
the most unhappy nature. Everybody
sympathizad with Nipple, and, as
Thompson said to me recently, nobody
would have blamed him if he had an
nounced to the public that he could not
live with her any longer, aud left town.
At that time Thompson was in the Penn
sylvania Legislature. During visit to
Butler, i'll either 1860 or 1861, Ripple
told him he was going to Pittsburgh for
day or two. Nipple thereupon packed
up few things and departed, taking
with him about So, 900 belonging to the
firm. Nothing was heard OF him for
several days, and Thompson began to
grow uneasy. Nipples wife was also
becoming troublesome. Finally, after
several days anxiety, a letter came to
Thompson from Nipple, dated from
"The Wide World, in which he said he
could not live with his wife, and had
gone away forever. He secured Thomp-
son by mortgage, etc., but Thompson for
many years did not know where his old
partner was, but Nipple managed by
sending letters to be remailed from vari-
GUS parts of the country to settle every
account he owed and to forward money
to Thompson for the support of his wife.
After many years had passed the two
partners met by accident in Pittsburgh,
the old friendship was renewed and che
warmest feelings have existed ever since.
Now both of them are in Congress.
What became of the old wife I do not
know. A divorce was obtained, and
Ripple married again on the Pacific
coast. After leaving Pennsylvania, in
1860, Nipple changed his name from
John Mitchell Nipple to John Ripple
Mitchell, and by that name he has been
known ever since. His present wife is
a very charming lady, and he has two
