Startling events succeed each other

Rhetoric and Logic.

Coppee's Rhetoric is work prepared
by Henry Coppee, LII. D., President
of the Lehigh University, for use in
schools and colleges.
The object of the author in this trea-
tise is to show the exact position of
Rhetoric as an intermediate science be-
tween Grammar and Logic, being al
lied to Grammar in expression and to
Logic in sense, and thus present it as
distinct link in the chain of sciences to
which it adds so much beauty and or
nament.
The points of excellence claimed for
Coppee's Rhetoric are: LIST. 1t sepa-
rates the subject clearly from its kin
dred branches and yet shows its ALI
ance to them. 2. While other works
show its relation to Grammar, this
shows its more important relation to
Logic. 3. 1t begins at once with
Rhetoric, defines the subject, explains
and exemplifes it, without burdening
the student with a long and tedious re-
view of Grammar, Punctuation and
Composition.
Each chapter sets forth in forcible

LOGIC.
The Elements of Logic, by the same
author, is perhaps the most popular
textbook on Logic now before the
public 1t is peculiarly adapted to that
class of schools which include the SUBJ
ject in their course of study, and is re-
markably free from all those unneces.
sary and irrelevant discussions which
impede the progress and confOund the
mind of the student with useless intri
eases, and meaningless processes.
Logic was the avenue to knowledge
with Socrates, and was regarded as the
"great regulator of all sciences" by
Plato, and considered as the first knowl
edge and the beginning of wisdom by
Aristotle, who was the founder of Logic
as a science. 1t is with us, as with
Aristotle, "the great instrument o.
demonstration" the key which unlock'
the storehouse of knowledge and shows
us its beauties.
With Coppee's Elements Of Logic
the subject is no longer the mystery o
philosophers, but the plain road ant
pleasant highway to all science.

"The only thing that can now be

public roads, the reform in our judici-
airy system-these will do more for the
State than the constant agitation of the
State debt question, which has absorbed
everything else and prevented such
wise and wholesome legislation as would
have saved the State far more than the
whole amount of the debt tax. Let

FOSSIL SCORPIONS.

Among the archaeological treasures recently
discovered on the Scottish border were Il large
number of PalHOzOic Scorpions. Mr.. Peach,
who has examined them says that these early
forms differ in no essential respect from the
living scorpion 80 far as regards external
organs. He has recognized III them every
structure of the recent form, down even 10
hairs and hooks on the feet. The sting alone
has not been certainly observed, but that 1t eX
listed may be inferred from the presence OF the
ooison gland which Mr.. Peach has detected IN
the fossil state. The chief difference between
the living scorpion and its ancient prOgcnltors
lies i'm the fact that in the fossil forms the
mesial eyes are much larger III proportion To
the lateral ones, and also TO the size OF the
whole animal. The two mesial eyes are placed
on an emnence near the anterior margin Ct the
carapace formed by two convcrglng tubes, ana
so arranged that the creature could look with
them upward, outward and forward. There
are at least four lateral eyes OH each side. The
mandibles. palpi, and four pairs of walking
legs are beautifully distinct on many specl-
mems. The combs are much like those OF the
modern scorpion, but with very remarkable
sculpturing which at once recalls that so char
acteristic of the Eurypterids. AS regards
theories of descent, these fossils afford no more
help in tracing the pedigree of the scorpion
than is furnished by the living form, for IL Is
obvious that the scorpion has remained with
hardly any change since Carboniferous times.
There can be little doubt that it is the most
ancient type of Arachnid, whence the others
have been derived

A NEW CATAIPA.

The common catalpa, of which some fine
specimens exist in Central Park on the western

supposed to consist of a single species-Ca,
talpa syringGfolia. DR.. John A.. Wardcr, OF
Ohio, in an exhaustive article in The Journal OF

that a new Western species-Catalpa speclosa
must be added to the meagre list. This
Western catalpa is indigenous on the lower
Wabash and White Rivers of Indiana, in the
southern parts of Illinois. the western low
lands of Kentucky and Tennessee, and the
swampy region of Southeastern Missouri ana
the adjoining portion of Arkansas. IL Is
harder than the Eastern species (syringafolia)

the Eastern kind were killed. The flowers are
