A FREAK OF NATURE.
The Atmosphere ut Boston In q Very
Curious Cor dieion.

BosrOE, Sept. 6.-E'rom early morning
TO sunset the atmosphere has been in a
most curious condition, exciting much
comment, and in somo Instances creating
alarm. While the air as viewed from %
window or looking up into the sky has
appeared TO be free from fog or mist, the
sun has been totally obscured The at
mosphere is pervaded with yellowish
light, which lends strange appearance
to every object. On the Common the
grass presents most unnatural appear

burn with Il white brilliancy that makes
them resemble electric lights. In all
directions distances appeared to be
shortened. Through the windowscould
be seen star-like points OF white light,
resembling little electrical lamps, but
being in reality gas jets, The phenom-
ona is noticeable in New Hampshire and
as far east us Portland. CT Emerson,
Professor Of National Philosophy and As
tronomy, Dartmouth College, says il
must be something in the atmosphere
which ab.orbs shorter aud long waive

the color of yellow and green. He thinks
it may be owing to pollen from fir and

science, and create . nation Of educated
and reading men. But education and
morality, cultivation and patriotism,
are not By any means convertiblst crms,
and the decay ofpublic virtnre and love
of country are not Incompatible with
tho widest diffusion Of knowledge
amongst the people. Hence, from q po-
litical standpoint, tits far moro impor-
tant to arouse and invigorate the senti-
nent Of patriotism in tho heart, and
stimulate the minds Of the young to
emulate the virtues and heroism Of their
country's chief and martyr than tits to
make thom proficient in the whole car
riculun, Of the free schools.
We trust the CAPIToLIAN's sugges-
ton will meet with general cOmmenda-
ton and be carried out in . mspner
worthy the heroic gentleman whose
memory it is intended to honor and
commemorate. In the Will and OK
citement Of our busy and growing ma
terial prosperity we should not forget
to pay the tributes Of glory duo By .
people to those whose lives were given
to q cause they cherished and which,
if lost, is not less sacred in their hearts.
History is but a story Of the conflicts
Of right and wrong, and if, in the midst
Of peace and prosperity, a nation neg
lects the memory Of those who in one
fight bore tho heat and burthen Of the
day and gave all for tho common cause,
| what inspiration is there to hcroism and
seif-sacrifice when the unending conflict
is again renewedG
| That the statne should be erected at
Baton Rouge is peculiarly appropriate.
Henry w. Allon was bornin West Baton
Rouge; he received the wound which
resulted in his death in defending the
city Of Baton Rouge and it was nndor
his direction that the beautiful grounds
surrounding the Capitol were laid ont
4 and planted. There then, i'll the
midst Of the unfading foliage of those
| groves his fancy and his hands called
into being, let the marble image Of this
patriot and hero be placed, an illustra-
ton Of tho gratitude Of a people whom
he SO deeply loved and in whose cause
he so freely poured out his blood. s

THE MID.LOUIsIANA RAILROAD.
Ne,y Orleans Picavune

Z
The Baton Rouge CApIToLIAN has re-
ceived information which leads il to the
belief that capital can be obtained to
build the proposed Mid-Louisiana rail
way, from q point on the Sabine River,
in Calcasieu parish, by wayof Opelol
sas, Baton Rouge, pontchatonla, and
through ST. Tammany parish to Bay
st. Louis, where it will connect with
the Louisville Road. II says that y
number Of gentlemen Of Baton Rouge
and vicinity ore about to organize a
company, with headquarters at Baton
Rouge, ''for the object Of forming the
basis upon which tho success Of the UNI
dertaking must necessarily rest They
propose to visit the people along the
route, to obtain rights Of way, privi-
leges, franchises, and such donations Of
land or subscriptions as are needfnl to
induce the investment Of capital in
construction bonds, etc.
The people along the limo Of this
project should give close attention to
the matter. The road will be Of service
to the entire State, which it will cross
in q line nearly due east and west, about
midway between the thirtieth and
thirty-first parallels Of latitude. The
road would give New Orleans o new
connection with Texas, and also with
the Gulf Coast, by conjunction with
existing lines, and also probably ulti-
mately by conjunction with Il new and
independent line from Baton Rouge
The Texas and Pacific could afford To
build that section of the road between
Baton Rouge and Bay st. Louis at once.
and the Louisville and Nashville could
| find it TO its own interest to build the
enlire limo without delay, giving it in
dependent access to Baton Rouge and
Texas. The Jackson Road ought to
have Baton Rouge spur, and it could
build from Pontchatoula with ease and
profit. There are no engineering diff.
culties worth mention along the line Of
| the proposed road.

We got down to Hayt's corners at last.
And on the way down we beguiled the
weary hours with anecdote, and Charles
Siddons, of Rochester, told us the story
of the defiant waiter. The dining-room

and as usual the man who eats with a
steel fork and has mnsh for breakfast
and rump steak and boiled potatoes for
dinner when he is home wanted every
thing in the house and wanted it right
away. He bullied the waiter and snarl-
ed and shifted and scOlded and made
everybody uncomfortable about him.
At last after devouring a dinner for
three, he pushed back his chair, tossed
his napkin on the floor to Indicate his
gentility and great wealth, and remar-
king with aristocratic hanghtiness that

THE CAyIWAXIAN LOVERS LA.

The following beautiful poem is freely
translated from the CaxiwaXian tongue:
it shows, better than any essay can do,
how far superior those rude people are
to use in their appreciation, at once in
stinctive and spontaneous, OF the superb
GRITTY of the university OF sounds to the
artitcialitv of sense This poem COM
bines the sweetness of Timothy Titcomb
with the onomatopeau music Of Owen
Meredith. Let the sensitive reader re-
mark the deep inscrqtabe meaning of
such tone-words as pazink:
Farewell my love, no more shall we rove,
am gone TO Cassanca to die:
In the depth OF the Purgam-P ernamgo grove
With the sladulous slitweeds lie
No more viii l gaze on the Slap.
As it walls in the Chorchirum Green.
Or hear the sweet sounds of the Illistriund,
As it bathes in the blue Kerosene.
The gladulous crumpit has turned its throat,
And the grid.sack has warbled aloud,
But the love has gone out of their cOcalum note,
And they've lost all their p0lychrome proud
The blifstick is sad on the Hill .Calew,
Where the poppynax waves III the breeze,
And the boxneck refuses 10 blow his bazoo
In the shades of the Snickeroo Sneeze

And l think and think and l think,
When they broughtus those hours Of canoodleum

And our hearts were brimfu of paznk.
| fling myself down OH baraboo branch,
With the to.tletum deep in my heart,
And see the red rays of my rigadoon rancho,
Where the pixwax and pollycum part.

about the premises, Just across the
way from the hotel was n big dye fac
tory and the goat used TO 90 over there
considerably. Dyers are Jolly devil
may-care sort of fellows anyway, and
they used to amuse themselves by deco
rating the goat. He was likely to show
up with pink legs, blue head, yellow
tall and a green body at any time. Mr..
Burlesque had been talking and drink
ing good deal with parties negotia-
ting for the patent. He went out on the
piazza, and saw the goat colored as de-
scribed. 1t made him nervous. He

didn't drink for two hours, but got so

the body white on one side and black
