Snow at Great Attitudes Does Rot Melt,

The reason why snow at great elevations
does not melt but remains permanent, is
owing to the fact that the heat received
from the sun is thrown off into the stellar
space 80 rapidly by radiation and reflection
that the sun fails to raise the temperature
of the snow to the melting point; the snow
evaporates, but 1t does not melt. The
SUBMITS of the Himalayas, for example,
must receive more than ton times the
amount OF heat necessary to melt all the
snow that falls Oh them Notwithstanding
which. the snow is not melted. And IN
spite Of the strength Of the sun and the dry
ness Of the air at those attitudes, evapora-
tion Is sufficient to rcmeve the snow. At
low elevations, where the snowfall is
probably greater and the amount of heat
even less than at the SUBMITS, the snow
melts and disappears. This, [ believe We
must attribute to tho influence of aqueous
vapor. At high elevations the air is dry
and allows the heat radiated from the snow
to pass into space; but at low elevations a
very considerable portion of the heat radi-
ated from the snow is absorbed In passing
through the atmosphere. A considerable
portion Of the heat thus absorbed by the
vapor is radiated back on the snow but
the heat thus radiatcd, being of the same
quality as that which the enow itself radi-
ates, is on this account absorbed by the
snow. Little or none or it is reflected like
that received from the sun. The conse.
quenco is that the heat thus absorbed accu-
mulates in the snow till melting takes
place. Were the aqueous vapor possessed
by the atmosphere sufficiently diminished,
perpetual snow would cover our globe
down to the sea shore. 1t is true that tho
air is warmer at the lower level than at the
higher level and by contract with the snow
must tend to melt it more at the former
than at the latter position. But we mus,
remember that the air is warmer mainly In
consequence of the influence of aqueous
vapor, and that were the quantity Of vapol
reduced to the amount In question the diff
ference of temperature at the two positions
would not be great.

a Contrast.


The tide of human progress is ever for
ward. However imperceptibly. it is con-
tinually moving with an irresistible force.
Did fogies, rooted to their idols.spend their
time IN vain remOnstrances against its
forward march. When new issues arise
men are always found for the emergency,
and the efforts of the dotards to stay the
tide are as impotent as the barking of the
canine to detain the steam propelled loco
motive. Political affairs in the United
States are assuming new aspect. Old
issues are being discarded. New forces
are at work. The Democratic party is the
exponent OF the progressive and liberal
elements who are demanding recognition.
The republican party comprises all the
opposite characters. those who are still
fighting the battle of the war, whose poll
teal principles consist solely of hatreds,
remembrances offormer battles, and re-
collections of past achievements. It's
leaders themselves realize this Their
appeal to dying passions. 10 former ha-
treds, to partisan prejudices, have lost
their force They can no longer throw
their wonted energy and vigor into their
work; their fiery buncombe harangues
fail to produce the effect OF days gone by.
Ihey know the people are satiated with
their methods, and demand fresher diet.
But the Republican organs, orators and
statesmen have no other stock 10 trade.
Like the last of the Roman augurs. they
smile ucon each other at the Righteousness
OF their ante-bellum declarations. They
know that their assertions are untruthful
and hypocritical: that the intelligent peo- !
pie OF the country can no longer be deluded
oy their false reasoning and sycophantic
pretensions. But they are unable to adapt
themselves tn to their changed environments.
They have outlived their period of useful
ness, and will be swept aside by the rising
young Democracy -ISangdmo Monitor
