Buzzelrs Final Struggle for Life.

,
CONCORD, July S.-A hearing upon the petit
ton for the communication of the sentence of
Buzzell, the Ossipee murderer, was held by
the Governor and Council this forenoon. To
prevent crowd no persons but the counsel for
the prisoner, Mr.. Edgerly, Attorney General
Iappan, and such gentlemen as the Council
designated, some dozen in number and mem
bers of the press were admitted. Mr.. Edgerly
opened the hearing with an argument in favor
of the prisoner. He briefly reviewed the cir
cumstances of the crime, Buzzell trial, Cook
confession, the hearing before the Supreme
Court on motion for new trial and various
matters which have been already published.
After detailing the manner in which Cook
confession duplicating Buzzell in the murder
OF Miss Hanson was obtained he claimed that
injustice was done Buell. as it was upon this
testimony of Cooks alone that he was convict
ed; that the judge charged the jury upon his
trial that if they believed Cooks testimony
they should return a verdict of guilty and if
they did not one of not guilty. The petitions
presented, he said, were signed by men of high
legal attainments and gentlemen of standing
in the state who had carefully examined the
case and believed that injustice was done
Buzzell in refusing new trial.
Attorney General Tappan for the state said
he had never in his experience known a case
so misunderstood and argued against reversal
of the decision of the court Mr.. Edgerly
made strong argument in favor of the con
demned.

chief of the Russian college for girls. At

the prince, and one day, few minutes

Cyclones.
J. J. Murphy in Nature.

Mr.. Bsrham, In Nature, concludes
that ga cyclone ia occasioned by the
meeting and passing each other of a
northerly and southerly current, so that
they pass each other on the left hand
respectively" Supposing this to be
true, for the northern hemisphere sub
stitute right hand for lett.
There Is nothing in this contrary to
dynamite principles, but the facts OF the
geographical disposition of cyclones ap-
pear TO show that the eddies or swirls in
which they originate are formed, not by
north and south currents passing each
other, but by the same meeting each
other; that Is TO say, in the zone where
the north and south trade winds meet,
when this zone Is at some distance from
the equator. Cyclones are not formed
in or near the equator, because there the
earth has no rotation relatively to an
axis drawn vertically TO its surface.
Mr.. Blanford has written In Nature,
showing that Mr.. Barham has not &C.
counted for the motive power Of the
cyclone, and explaining 1t by the liberia
tion of latent heat from the conden-
