II has found its way into print that
Lord Harrington, the present lender OF
the opposition in the British parliament.
When travelling in this country, wore a
secession badge at a public ball in New
York. Mr.. Lowell, our minister in
England, is said to have remarked satir-
icallly that il such an affront had been
put upon n ''civilized country the
offender would have been severely ham
died 1t is proper now to tell the story
straight, for the European correspond
ent from whom ! quote was not IN this
country at the time. and is only half in
formed on the subject. 1t was not a
public" ball, but a ball given by Mr..
August Belmont, ut which this English
fool saw tit to insult his host and the
northerners present. and Mr.. John
H~eckshcr, the well known member of
the American jockey club, then a lieu
tenant of the Twelfth United States
infantry, walked up and tore 1t of his
astonished lo~rdship's breast. OF course
there was q society sensation, but Mr..
Hecksher was sustained by Mr.. Bel
mont and the copperhead New York
public.

SCIENTIFIC MISCELLANY.

just before the recent opening Of
telegraphic communication with Zanzi-
bar, an interruption In the working OF
the cable occurred, the cause Of which
WAS found to be a rupture arising from
the action Of n submarine volcano about
ten miles from the Zanzibar landing
place. This Is probably the first in
stance Of volcanic interference with
telegraphic operations. r
BY means OF his new-invented Their
mopile, for the measurement Of inf
Intestinal degrees of heat, Mr.. Edison
asserts 1t TO be possible to measure the
millionth part Of degree Of Fahrenheit.
Nor is this all, for the new marvel will
show ininitessimal changes in the
moisture OF the atmosphere ..changes
which are n hundred thousand times
less in quantity than those that can be
indicated by the present barometer"
A new application.of the Ruhmkorff
electric coil has been made in the neigh
bprhood Of Marseilles. Instead Of
using birdlime on the trees which are
f~requented by birds of passage, a cop
PR wire Is wound around the trunk Of
Of each tree and a decoy attached TO a
nelghboring staff. When the flock has
been attracted by the decay. a shock is
given by the apparatus, and the birds
are more surely stunned than by n rifle.
Similar experiments have shown that
the parasites Of vines and their eggs
may be destroyed by the powerful
electric shocks.
DIR. v. Jagielsky asserts that the
Tartar steppes, Iceland. and the Shet-
land, Farce and Hebrides islands, are
almost entirely exempt from consump-
ton. These places being low elevations,
the fact tells somewhat against the es-
pecial or exclusive value of mountain
climates. DIR. Jagielsky is inclined to
the opinion that the immunity is large
ly due to the universal use Of koumiss
and n similar drink called ''bland." A
large number Of medical men share the
belief that If anything will check the
progress of lung diseases it is koumiss,
especially in a warm, dry climate, like
that of the Tartar steppes during the
summer months.

RUINED CITIES IN AMERICA,

The Dwellings and Temples Of q Race Of People
Who Once Inhabited Colorado, Arizona and
New Mexico.
In the far West, In the cities or the great Canons
of Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico, are the
dwellings and temples Of a tribe Of meu, who
had mastered some of the arts of civilization. In
the plains are pastoral villages built of stone and
mortar for both shelter and defense. The houses
are large, fora number Of persons, with a court
yard in the center. There are no side entrances
but. lngress was by ladders over the walls and in
to the courtyard, This indicates that the people
were continually on guard against prowling enc
mics, the Arabs Of America. These communal
cities contain circular towers OF great strength
constructed with. concentrie, circular walls, and
a hollow, circular court in the centre. The walls
are Joined by radial partitions, thus strengthening
the whole. Most Of those towers are much dilap'
idated, so that 1t is impossible to ascertain wheth.
er they were rooted or not, A Castof the remnants
Of one OF the largest towers has been made by
Edwin E. Powell, Of the survey, ard is now in
the workshop Of Professor Ward, at The university.
1t is probable that these towers are entered by a
secret rock cut passage, as at least one such pas.
bhB6 mas Dbbu ullCuNeI6d' III y ItC6ub hELlClt
Henry Gannett, in the Popular Science Monthly,
ventures the suggestion that these overs were
temples Of the sun, in the centre Of which the
eternal fres were kept burning. Similar towers
are now found in inhabited cities or pueblos, and
are used as sun temples, 1t is also quite probable
that these overs might have been used for de.
Tense in sore extremity, the people entering them

triple walls would discourage an enemy, armed
only with bows and clubs. As dangers thickened
about these people, or perhaps in their earlier
history, fortified dwellings were grouped in the
caves formed by the dislntegratlon Of soft rock
in the perpendicular cliffs Of the canyons. These
cliff dwellings must have been constructed with
enormou labor, as the stone was either carried or
hoisted from below. The approaches were by
steps cut In the rock, and were very precarious.
In the outer stone walls are a few square openings
for air and light, while the mode Of entrance was
by q ladder over the wall. The cliff f~ortresses
are Of great antiquity. The cedar wood used for
beams is, however, well preserved. Scattered
about are quantities of broken pottery. The NOR.
tar with which the walls are laid Is still firm; and
In some places are seen the prints Of human hands
made when the mortar was first laid on. The
story Of these ruined towns and ~fortresses will, in
all probability, never be known, 1t is some salts
