Disturbances on Jupiter.

Parties who have been contemplating
a removal from this planet to the planet
Jupiter will do well to pause moment
and count the cost ere engaging passage
in one of the passenger balloons predicted
for an early day. An astronomer has
been investigating Jupiter and presents
a not very fiatteripg report of the state
of affairs up there. Terrible ills have
overtaken the giant planet. "The least
of the hurricanes that have swept this
disc would have leveled every city in
the United States and wrecked the ma
vies of the whole earth.'' The other
prominent planets have also suffered
remarkable disturbances this year. It
is consoling to know that our own storm
torn and sun-baked little earth has Jared
well, comparatively, and is doubtless
the best abiding place in the solar sys-
tenn.

Mr.. Tilden Speaks.

The great leader who redeemed New
York to honest government from the
Tweed thralidom and to complete Dem
ocratic control, and who led the Demo-
cratic party to overwhelming victory in
the country five years ago, has been
compelled to speak in reply to several
letters from prominent Democrats in
New York asking his advice as to their
being candidates for Office. The head
and heart OF the venerable statesman
are as clear and sound as ever, as will
be seen by reading the following letter:
GRaYSrONF, October &, 1851.
MY DEAR SIR: | should have written to
you earlier except for lilness and the pres
sure of claims upon my attention during my
convaescence In respect to your assurance
that you would not be a candidate for nomna-
ton il your nomination would be Disagree
able to me- have TO say that cannot assume
any such position. have neither the right
nor the wish 10 exclude you from legitimate
and honorable competition Tor any public
trust My practice when | was at the head of
partisan OF any particular Candidate but to
cOnfne myself to such advisory sue gestiOus
as might seem fit and useful during. the DELHI
eratlons OF the Convention; to defer largely
to the Judgment of the best men of
of the immediate action on the complex con-
siderations which enter into the formation of
collective ticket. need not say that have
not undertaken any such function on the pres
ent occasion. and have not possessed myself
of the information TO make me competent to
such a work. | assume that you have not Civ
Ell credit to the Idle fiction of Republican and
other newspapers, which ascribes to me de-
sire to control the nominations and canvass
for the present year. with a view to becoming
q candidate for Governor next year. The
truth is, ran for Governor in 1873 simply for
the purpose of sustaining the reform move
ment to which ! had given the three proceed
ing years and should not have continued in
the Office for second term in any possible
event, nor would,i now entertain the idea of
returning to It, oven if [ had battered my self
that Won d receive unanimous vote of the
people. All desire for the Democratic party
in the coming canvass Is that it shall maxi the
best possible chOic of candidates and do ey-
erything 70 advance the principles of admin
istration to wiz Oh have devoted so many eff
forts and SEcri.iceS.',

A Scandinavian Marriage.

Preparations for wedding feast be-
gin weeks beforehand, and are so ex-
tensive that M. Du Chailln was utterly
amazed at the quantity of solids and
liquids that he saw stored against an
approaching marriage feast. Invita-
tions to weddings are sent out well in
advance of the happy day. so that the
guests may prepare for two or three
DAYS absence from home; and the
poorest person invited is never without
a wedding garment. The happy couple
eat, drink and dance with everybody:
and it seems never to have occurred to
the people to inquire how they do it.
There is limit to the endurance of the
native head and stomach, and this gen.
orally is found on the third day; then
the guests. on bidding good-by to the
bride, tender their wedding presents,
which always consist of money, and
are deposited. without being examined,
in box which the bride wears at her
side. How many American girls will
wish-only to themselves--that a SINH
lar custom might prevail here can not
easily be estimated, but all of them
will understand why there are but few
bachelors in the land of the midnight
sun. Long as are the wedding festivi-
ties, those of Christmas far exceed
them, for feasting and fun are indus
triously kept up from Christmas-eve to
Twelfth night, and quaint and charming
are some of the attendant ceremonies.

The Bull-fight in France.

The news that several persons have
been killed and Il large number wound
ed at a bull-fight in Marseilles may
well cause CONSERVATION in the minds
OF those who watch the progress of Re-
publican France. When l was last in the
south of France 1 heard OF entertain
ments more or less closely approaching
bull-fghts being given in the Amphi-
theater at Nismes. and in one or two
other places. These, however, l was
told, were in every way less cruel and
less dangerous than the proceedings
over the Spanish frontier. The same
journals, however. which mention the
accident at Marseilles, state that two
toreadors have been wounded in the
course of a bull-ight in Nismes. Hith-
erto the bull-fght has been the crown
ing and individual infamy of the Span
iards. the most cruel of races claiming
quasi-civilization. That Europe
ceased at the Pyrenees. and that at the
other side the African asserted himself,
was the statement of one of the most
eminent French statesmen. Deplora-
BILE indeed would it be for the future of
humanity if that republican Govern
ment to which all turn who hope for
the future of the world, should tolerate
atrocities which Bourbon and Bona
parte alike suppressed. - Gentleman s

The chief medical officer of the
New Jersey State Lunatic Asylum
points out the fact that Notwithstanding
the great prevalence of malaria in that
section, not a single case of that disease
has been found among the lunatics, who
last year numbered 672. Attendants
and laborers about the institution suf-
fered severely. The explanation is
found to lie in the fact, not that insanity
protects from malaria, but that the luna
tics are never allowed to be out after
nightfall.
Charles F. Brush, the inventor of
the Brush light, says there is no good
reason why the elevated trains in New
York should not be run by electricity,
on the same principles as the Siemen's
electric railway, the success of which is
beyond controversy. He thinks the use
of such system for long distances will
not be practicable until the storing of
electricity has been accomplished, but
he admits that M. Faure's experiments
in such storage have opened ga wide
field which will soon revolutionize every
branch of electricity
An Austrian engineer named Lauer
has discovered a new method of disin-
tegrating rock. The chief feature of his
system is to employ a hollow cylinder
like gas-pipe, and to place the dyna-
mite cartridge, not as hitherto in hole
bored into the rock to be blasted, but in
the cylinder in question. The cartridge
only touches the surface of the rock
which it is desired to shatter. The ex-
plosion of the dynamite is effected by
means of electricity, and the effect is
said to be greater than with the usual
cartridge in a hole bored in the rock.
The rock is shattered into fragments so
small that fair stream is able to wash
them away without help, whereas in the
case of gunpowder the rock is only split
up into small blocks more or less large
and troublesome to remove. The Lauer
system is calculated to effect saving of
fully 40 per cent. as compared with the
old system.

" Why was it in your pocket Why

6. wanted-I was just going to read
it."
Phil touched his hat, and quietly took
his departure. Mrs. Keens said no
more, but looked again at the dates on
the card At this moment a hack
drove up, from which issued most
astonishing outpouring of noisy, laugh
ing, chattering blue-ilanneled boys, fol-
lowed by a mother who looked just
merry enough to be commander of such
a merry crew.
Hurrah! Hurrah, Pete, we're Off!
All ready? We can only stay two
hours"
"Such tent-big, striped, and a flag
to it; and
Fathers going to let us boys shoot

"Isn't it jolly to have two weeks less
to waltz"
Peter did not look ct all jolly, as
through his half-bewildered mind strug-
gled a dim perception of the dire evil
the loss of that card might have worked
for him. When the .clamor of greeting
and questioning had somewat subsidized,
Mrs. Keens said, slowly:
mo, Peter is not ready;" and the
tone of her voice sent heavier weight
down into his heart. and a bigger lump
into his throat. "Your card has only
just reached me, Katherine"
''Oh dear! dear!' His aunt shook her
head in distress, and five boy faces set
tied into blank dismay. why, why,

Can't you hurry things up little?

followed his mother to the dining room
as she went to order hasty lunch for
the travellers.

sobbed.
She put her arms around him. with
streaming eyes. feeling the keenness of
the disappointment for him as deeply
as he ever could feel it for himself.
"Oh, my boy! my boy! my heart is
sad and sore that you should be mean
and sly and decetful, and not for once
only. but as habit. No. it is your own
doing. and you must abide by the con-
sequences. never could have brought
myself to punish you so, but you have
