THE LIGHT OF JUPITER.

There has been for some years a
discussion as to whether the planet
Jupiter shines to any perceptlble ex-
tent by his own intrinsic light, or
whether the illumination is altegeth-
err derived from the sun. Some facts
ascertained from spectroscopfc OBJ
s~ervation by Prof. Henry Draper, and
communicated by him to the current
number of the American Journal of
Science and Arts, seem to point to
the conclusion that it is not improba-
BILE that Jupiter is still hot enough to
give out light, though perhaps Gully
|. in . periodic or eruptive manner.
Most Of the photographs hitherto
made of the spectrum of Jupiter by
Prof. Draper, bear SO close a resem-
blance to those of the sun as to ill.,
dictate that under the ordinary cir
eunstances of observation, almost
all the light coming to the earth from
Jupiter must be merely reflected
light originating in the sun. But OIL
one occaslon-September u, 1873

son spectrum of the moon was OBJ
tanned by him which showed q dit
ferent state of things. The photo

not q change in the number or ar
: Management of the Fraunhofcr lines
but a variation in the strength of the
background. These notifications IL
the intensity of the background seem
to Prof. Draper to point out two
things that are occurring: L. Al ab'
sorption of solar light in the equator
ial regions of the planet. 2. A pro
duction of intrinsic light at the SAINT
place. These two apparently oppos
ing statements a be reconciled OIL
the hypothesis that the temperatur,
of the incandescent substances pro
ducing light at the equatorial region
of Jupiter did not suffice for tn
emission of the more %refrangibl
rays, and that there were presen
materials which absorbed those ray
from the sunlight falling OIL the planet
The strengthening of the spectrum
in the portions answering to tn
vicinity of the equatorial regions o
Jupiter, says Prof. Draper. bears 81
directly On the problem of the physi
cal condition of the planet as to iu
,candescence that its Importance can
not be overrated.

WHO WENT TO THE WAR.

Gen. McMshon, of New York, dur
ing a recent conversation stated:
'sThe claim that the republican party
restored the Union is an insult to the
people of the United States, who did
that work irrespective Of party. Any
decent American would have been
ashamed of his country if, in 1861,
when the flag was fired Oh at Sump-
ter, there had been divisions upon
party lines. You aud 1 know that
there was no division, but the people
rose simultaneously as such-as q
sovereign people-in defense of the
Union. The armies that thronged
the field to support the cause were
composed of a large majority of dem
ocrats. l do not mean by this to say
that the republican party of that
time was any less patriotic than the
democratic party. l merely wish to
convey the idea that the cause of the
Union was the u ofsthe people,
and as the democrats were in a ma
jority in the loyal states, moreover, a
large prependerence of the fighting
force of the country, they naturally
contributed the greater number to
the Union armies. That this was
true OF h leaders can be shown in
all instant. l cannot recall now with.
out an inspection of the records all
the democrats who held high com.
mand, but there we're Mcclellan

lett aud y host of others whose names
appear OF almost every page of til,
history of the rebellion. The sam,
is true of the rank and file of tn,
Union army. In states like Vernon
la republican state-tlte soldiers ell
listed were chiefly republicans, ant
it is but fair to say that Vernon
contributed a larger proportion o
her population than any other stat
in the Union. Her soldiers, however
went to the front not as soldiers blu
as citizens. At the same time tn
democratic statesiof the north wer
much larger in population, and so
happened, as 1 baves said, that so grea
a proportion of them comprising GU
armies who first rose to save Hths
Union were democrats" AIqss
