How THE u. s. SUPREME CouRr is
OPENED.--To begin with, there is de.
gree of dignity aud stately bearing about
the Court and its members which perme-
ates even to the most humble attache.
There is quiet in the courtroom which
recalls the Sabbath of the Covenantera.
When one enters, the involuntary feeling
comes on that the room is set aside only
for the contemplation of the sober side of
life, and woe to him who jibes or jokes In
the presence of the Court. The Court ia
opened about this fashion: At twelve
o'clock lnoop) the Justices come in from
the consulting room and take their seats
on the bench. Away to the left. of-the
chamber is seen q youthful officer whose
business il to catch the first glimpse of the
advancing Judges. Then comes three
raps with . pondst9hs gavof by tho same
officer. @ his ss :ss ::ee:sa. :ee:s.a. q signAI f,t tEA

/ Justice in advance, the Judges enter from
tho right of the, chamber, To the rear
of the Justices seats is an 'aisie.= In the
centre :s an .hseed s..cheed entrance so- The
Chief, Justice, Through rthis aisle the

The opening of the Court falls upon a
youthful otheSr. It Is after the cid Eng
lish form 20, yea; oh, yea" etc, and
coheludes with the words, "God bless the
honorable eupIems Upprt::', The Coust
is now ready for business. All the Jus.
tices are clad in black silk gowns wi.h m
ecclesiastical cut. In the dispatch of
business the Chief Justice is quite exre-
ditious. He is always ready with reply
to question, and eminently satisfactory.
heJlsticesonth the bench assume difTesefe

How PLANTS EAT, MOVE AND SLEEP.
In work entitled "Movements of
Plants" Mr.. Charles Darwin gives the
result OF hia latest Investigations into tho
questions Of botanic lifa. These research,
es ara OF q nature which cannot fail to
excite general interest, while they will
who cling to the venerable belief in a
distinct liue of demarkation between the
animal and vegetable kingdoms. Speak
ing from careful experiment. tho author
tells us how plants exhibit many of the
characteristics Of animal nature. They
sleep, they move, they ore very sensitive
| they have appetites, they ere carnivorous.
and they have radicles. which by thaIr
sensibility and their effect upon other
parts OF the plant act q part similar to
that of brain in lower animals We are
told that leaf of n carnivorous plant
which has been fdotionless for hour will
INSTANTLY curve on being touched In a
most delicate manner with piece of
raw beef In observing the sleeping
habits OF certain plants, Mr.. Darwin, by
an ingenious contrivance, held down the
leaves which otherwise would have re.
turned to vertical or sleeping position
at night. The result was that those
leaves were frost bitten in temperature
| which had no such effect on the leaves
that were allowed freedom to sleep.
Mr.. Darwin thence concluded that the
sleeping of the plant is to it question
OF life and DEATH" the vertical position Of
the leaves at night protecting it from
injurious effects Of radiation aud cold.
Not less instructive and suggestive are
the researches into the effects of light
upon certain forms Of vegetation. In.
stances are given Of the wonderful Bensi-
tiyeness of some plants TO. lish:. The
seedlings Of the Paaearis cGnariensis, for
example, are said to have power of de-
tecting differences in light which are in
appreciable by the human eye, while
they sympathetically turn to the minutest
points of light. Nor is the constant mo.
ton of plants confined to any special
state of termination, for we learn that
from year to year since the tree first be.
gar! to rise through the ground the tip Of
each rootlet eudeavors to sweep small
ellipses or circles, as far as the surround.
ing earth permits. All this would seem
to show that when we speak of flowers
"peeping," smiling, and drinking dew"
We express something more than moro
poetical metaphor 4
