In the domain Of physics science has
made very gratifying progress within the
last few years, but still we are not alto
gether satisfied with the status of the
kitchen cabinet. We can at a pinch be
happy while ignorant as to the myster-
les that envelope the components of the
nebule and the nature of the catastrophe
that shivered Biela's comet into myr-
lads of smithereens, but we must abso-
lutely have our coffee settled. We can
feel doubts as to the causes of the spots
on the surface of Jupiter, but as to the
ingredients of our matutinal hash,
never! We can shut our eyes as to the
likelihood of an atmosphere and inhabi-
tants to Mercury, but our yeast bread
must not be acidulated in the rising, our
potatoes must not be scorched and sod
den, and the Western Reserve butter
must be innocent Of oleomargerine tai
low. There are other cxigencies that de-
veloping civilization renders indispensa-
ble-we like our beef-steaks broiled and
not too leathery of con 1istence; we de-
mand that tea shall not be dish-water,
and that pies shall not invade our
breakfast table while we sleep the sleep
Of the just of morning. A truly
philosophic mind wants its dinner served
hot, it wants its bed-chambers aired, it
requires its sitting-rooms lighted aud
ventilated, and it wants, above all things,
its buttons sewed on its shirts. With
these and kitchen service that one il
not obliged to stand over with a club
and hypodermic syringe to introduce
the simplest rudiments of reason, life may
not in this nineteenth century be thought
wholly barren ideality.

THE EVIDENCE OF EXPERTS.

There are many impedfments in the
way of securing equal and exact justice
in the civil and criminal courts of this
country, as we suppose there is in all
other lands. The Bench can not be kept
ntirely free from ignorance or corrup-
ton. Whether appointed by the execu-
tive power or elected by the people, oc-
casionally an unfit man crowds himself
into the judicial chair. But this evil is
much less than might be expected. Be-
tween the jealousy of rivals the suspi-
eion Of disappointed suitors and the ar
guseyed vigilance Of the press he st ,nds
but poor chance for long or sue.

4 New Temple Bar.

The creation Of new Temple Bar is an
event in the annals Of two cities. Tho
rivalry between London and West
minister is amicable, and the citizens of
both are interested in the definition Of
the Lord Mayors jurisdiction. The old
landmark is to be replaced by new
structure, and the design. is already in
the hands Of the civic officers. The Tenn
pie Bar Of the future will differ from its
predecessor both in form and in associa-
tions. It has been planned to assist the
traffic which the old City Gate impeded,
and it is, moreover, stated to be of an
ornamental character, which the old
gate certainly was not. The archway
which till lately marked the entrance to
the City Of London had gloomy associa-
tions.
The loyal citizens often watched tho
row of traitors heads sharply defined
against a sky which a century ago was,
perhaps, clearer and brighter than it is
now. The new Temple Bar will be asso-
ciated rather with litigants than with
criminals twill still mark the center
of busy interests and the quiet pulse of
gain, but twill have an added function
In, 80 to speak, introducing the old law
yers of the inns south Of the Strand to
the corridors Of the new palace of justice
north OF it. The old tide of traffic fol-
lowed the course of the river, and flowed
steadily along Fleet street and the
Strand, but new decade will witness

The Murderer of KeeGe had an
Accomplish.

The woman Rosa Sloan, who was il
company with Mike Keefe when he
was shot and killed by Clayton Pynt
night before last, was fined ten dol,
lars yesterday morning for being ouI
after hours, in order that sh {
might be kept as a witness against
Pyne, should he be captured.
In an interview yesterday she gave
no intimation of Pyne's having a COM
p%anion, but in another interview had
with her this morning she threw a
little more light on the subject. Pur-
suing the method of the slick Deceive
the reporter asked:
Were there no other witnesses to
the affair beside YOURSELF"
mo sir"
mo other persons present."
well, yes, there was a mar with
Pyne."
"Ohl there was Ell? Do you know
his name?"
No, | could not see his face, and
don't know hat l would have recog-
nized him if | had"
Are you certain now that it was
Pyne and not his companion that fred
the shot?"
Yes, because l saw Pyne running
away with a smoking pistol in his hand
directly after the shot was fred"
Which one threw the brick?"
II am not dead sure but l think,
considering that the pistol was fred
almost at the same time that the brick
was thrown, that it was the other man
that threw the brick that struck me
on the arm"
Beyond this nothing more could be
learned. Inc woman evidently knows
a little more han she would tell,
though she seems to be very willing
to talk. She undoubtedly thought
more of Keefe than she did of Pyne,
as is evidenced by her manner of
speaking Of one and the other.
Nothing more can now be said of
the affair except that it is certain that
the woman is not mistaken as to the
identity of the murderer. He was
seen and recognized by several in the
moment of his fight.
1t is believed by many that the
murderer went down the river, and
escaped to the south, while others say
be went up to the island above the
city, aud there disposed of his skif
and other prop ty.

The existence of factions is one of the inevi-
table things at the present time attaching to
political conventions, and the Democrats of
Pennsylvania were no exception to the rule.
1t was the Wallace faction Upon the one side
(anti Tilden) and the Randall faction upon the
other. The former were rather in the ascend
ency, and in their effort to instruct for Han
cock would have succeed had not the tellers
and chairman reversed tha verdict. Senator
Wallace says that the delegation will stand 20
for Tidel and So against him. W. l., Scott,
Of Erie, nearly reverses the figures given by
senator Wallace as to the status of the Cinsin-
natl delegation. lie claims thai there will be
forty Tiden votes in the delegation and
eighteen in favor of Hancock, During meet
ing of the Committee On Resolutions a
motion to incorporate resolution instructing
the delegates to Cincinnati to vote for Han
cock, was voted down-34 to 10, According to
the Wallace estimate the anti Tildenites will
havc 40 Of the So delegates to Cincinnati. The
delegates at large stand as follows: For Til
den 2, Bayard l, Hancock 1. These were se-
lected on a compromise basis.

A Lively Texas Execution.

Nofsinger assembled the scaffold at Jaines-
vile, Tex, amid the murmurings of sympathy
Ten thousand people were present. As the
Sheriff was adjusting the rope to the beam an
Intellectual effort to cut It was made by des-
perado. The mutterings grew louder and
louder, until they swelled into a perfect storm,
demanding his release with cries of Turn him
loose" A rush was made for the gallows,
which was stayed by the Sheriff and his depu-
ties with shot-guns and pistols. The crowd
was stampeded, during which women and chill
dren were run over by men, vehicles and horses
rushing to the rear. Quiet being restored, the
prisoner addressed the excited multitude, pro-
testing, for the first time, his innocence. A
second attempt at rescue was made, and again
quelled by the authorities. The moose was
then placed about the victims neck, the black
cap drawn over his head, and his arms and
feet pinioned. At 425 he was swung into
eternity, dying in nine minutes. The body
was turned over to his father for burial at his
home in Virginia. Krebs and Preston were to
be hanged also, and were commxted.

The wires report that the cyclone at Macon,
Miss, has left two hundred and three persons
absolutely destitute, being without raiment,
shelter food. and call for aid has been
made by relief committee that has just been
organized. The amount Immediately needed
will be $4,000. A correspondent describing
the scene of Tuesday following the storm, says
"Precisely at 8 o'clock this morning every
bell in the town sounded the death knell to the
echo, when the remains of those who perished
were driven in wagons to the spot agreed upon,
and the procession moved to the cemetery.
Imagine the spectacle of fifteen wagons in
line, each bearing a corpse, followed by the
largest concourse of people that ever attended
burial here. On reaching the graveyard the
wagons filed on into the graves prepared, and
were relieved of their burdens one by one, the
empty wagons moving on and hating for the
next. Truly it was a sad scene, the orphan
weeping for mother and father, md for a
brother and sister. Scarcely dry eye could
be seen in the vast audience. Business re-
mains suspended, so occupied are the people
with the suffering,
