sODOM AND GOmORRAH.

Concerning the possibility that So
dom and Gomorrah were destroyed by
meteors, Prof Proctor writes st can
readily be shown that Temples comet,
in whose track the November meteors
travel, must have passed near, and
may have passed very near to the earth
at the time when, according to tradi-
tion, Sodom and Gomorrah were de-
stroyed by fire from heaven. < =
Now it so happens that at the time
mentioned in the verse: "The sun was
risen upon the earth when Lot entered
into Zoar; then the Lord rained upon
Sodom and Gomorrah birthstone and
fire from the Lord out of heaven"
these cities lay almost centrally on
that disc of the earth which was turned
at the time towards the radiant of the
November meteors. < . If ever a
special and not any large district of
the earth could be so rained upon by
meteors that towns in it could be de-
stroyed, the catastrophe would unques-
tionably be attended by just such Gil
cumstances-that is, the region would
be as fully as possible exposed to the
hail of meteors and this hail would be
as heavy as possible, which would re-
quire that the comet or a part of its
meteor train very close to the comet
should be the source of the meteoric
hail. The velocity with which under
such conditions the meteors would
rush through the air would amount to
about forty miles an hour 1t is note
worthy also that the November me-
teors have been found under spectre
scopic analysis of their light to contain
large quantities of sodium, the chief
component of our common salt. From
this some may be disposed to extract
a naturalistic Interpretation of the
fate of Lots wife Those who take in
terest in this theory of tbs destruction
of Sodom and Gomorrah might posi-
bly, manage to find some evidence of
heavy meteorie downfall in that part
of the earth. The search would be as
likely to be rewarded with success as
that which my esteemed friend, the
Able Moigno, has suggested should be
made for the chariots, ETC., Of the de-
stroyed army of Pharaoh

CHINESE LOTTERIES.
How they are Ctrried on-The Celestials
Passion for Them.

There is hardly town on the coast
in which Chinese lotteries do not ex-
ist, either as local affair, or as on
Of the agencies Of the large lotteries Of
the kind in san Francisco. The tick
cts are square slips Of paper, on which
are printed 80 letters. these letters
being the last in the Chinese first read
II. or Gin Chcc Choo,' rs it is called.
These tickets are for sale at all Of the
Chimes stores, and can be purchased
tor amy price from ten cents t. 50, fhe
amount Of the prize drawn depending
upon the price paid for the ticket.
When the ticket is bought the pur-
chaser chooses ten letters on il by
marking them ont with Il pen and Oh
these ten his chance depends The
drawing is conducted a. follows:
Eighty square slips Of paper, each
bearing one of the letters upon the
tickets, arc pasted by one corner upon
a large board used for the purpose.
After being thus pasted and found to
he correct, they are next put INTO Il
large pan and thoroughly mixed
From this pan they are transferred to
four porcelain bowls, 20 in each bowl.
Four slips Of paper marked respective
" /, 2, 3 and !, are next placed in
the bowl and one drawn out, which in
ticates the bowl Of tickets to be use.l
in the drawing. After determining
this the % tickets III The bowl indicated
are taken out one by one and repeated
upon the large board, caller announc-
ing each letter as it is drawn, and the
clerks recording it. Out of 20 letters
drawn, if the holder Of the chance is
SO fortunate as to have marked off ten
upon his ticket, he secures a large
prize ranging from 81 900, to S3,O00,
and even $4,000, according to the
money invested in the ticket. The
drawings are made thrice Il day, and
the dealers Of the game, if at all tortu
nate, make z large amount of money
from it. The chances are very great
IN favor Of the game, but seldom over
three or four spots being won upon
ticket, and over seven is a rarity.
Under four spots scored the tickets
lose. and over this as high as eight.
The prices are nominal, varying from
. cents to $50 This species Of gam
bling is very popular among the Chi
nese, and there is hardly one bur holds
tickets for each drawing.

AMERICAN HUMOR.

The American humor partakeS
slightly Of the Spanish character and
extravaganza, but it is, nevertheless,
the growth of the soil. The vastness
Of the country. which is said to be
bounded on the east by the Atlantic
ocean, on the north by the aurora
borealis, on the west by the setting
sun, and on the south by the day Of
Judgment, and the peculiar circum-
stances in which the people are placed,
can be traced in most of these stories.
The hyperbolical or tall species Of
American humor was much in vogue
some years ago, and such stories as the
following were once very common "A
man was so tall that he had to go up
ladder to shave himself" another
was 50 strong that his "sneeze would
kill buffalo across the Mississippi
river a Massachusetts, pig was so
lean that it was necessary to tie knot
in its TIL to prevent it from getting
through the chinks Of the paling >
"an American artist painted a snow
storm so naturally that he caught a
bad cold by sitting near it with his
coat off "Some land was so rich
that a squash vine, in its rapid growth,
overlook drove of pigs" "The rea-
son why cream is dear is that milk has
risen so high the cream can't reach the
top. There is a capital story in which
it is related that "a coach drove
through the country so fast, and the
miIe-stones passed so quickly by, that
the passengers thought they were in a
church yard" This coach, however,
was beaten by the skipper, which
went 50 tarnation fast that in sailing
round Long Island she left her shadow
three and a half miles behind her"
Maj. n, when asked whether he was
seriously injured by the explosion of
the boiler Of St Leonard steamer, re-
piled that ''he was so used to being
blown up by his wife that a mere
steamer had no effect upon him." The
evidence of a witness in a life insur-
ance case involved in the blowing up
of steam boat on the Ohio is droll,
just because it is characteristic. The
witness knew the missing man, and
saw him on the deck of the steamboat
before the explosion. When asked by
the lawyer, when was the last time
you saw him?' he answered, "The
very last time ever set eyes on him
was when the boiler burst, and l was
going up. l met him and the smoke
stack coming down We all know
that the American oysters are large,
but that one must have been Of extra
ordinary size, which required three
men to swallow it whole.-E.rchange

4 BRUTAL ACT.

Peter Parker, aged %, who had
been living on apparent good terms
with his wife at Martins mill, 81 miles
from Millsborough, invited her on
Sunday morning last to 60 teaberrying
with him in a piece Of woods skirting
the pond. Suspecting nothing wrong
she accompanied him. When they
arrived at the spot designated by him
he is represented. to have made a bru-
tai and murderous assault upon her
and then dragged her into the water,
where he tried to finish his fiendish
job by drowning her. He eventually
left her for dead in the pond.
She recovered consciousness and
strength, however, Immediately after
he departed and crawled upon the em-
bankment close by, where she was soon
discovered in a wretched condition by
the neighbors and removed to the
house of her father, William Moore.
A warrant was issued for Parker'S ar
rest without delay, but it was found
that he had fled to Maryland, and it
is probable he will be arrested there
and brought to Georgetown on requi-
sition. Although less than 80 years
old, he has been thrice married. He
is represented as an idle, good-tor-noth-
ing fellow, but no one ever believed
he was capable of the crime he tried
to commit. The cause of this murder
Gus assault is as yet mystery, unless
it may be explained on the ground
that he was afflicted with sort Of
matrimonial mania and was desirous
of freeing himself with q view to mar
rying a fourth time : Georgetown

called Sunandaig; his idol represent

Richard Ceur de Lion was killed on
a Friday, which strengthens the su-
perstiton in the English mind Sat
urday, or Scatter, is the same as the
Roman Saturnas. He was represene
cd on a pedestal, standing on the back
Of a prickly fish, his head bare, and
with a thin meagre face. In his lett
hand he held wheel and in his right
q pail of water with fruits and flowers.
The sharp fms Of a fish implied that
the worshippers Of Scatter would pass
through every difficulty. The pail Of
water implied that he would water the
earth and make it fruitful.
