THE EARLY SYSTEM OF AsTRON.
OMY.

From the examination Of book com.
piled 900 years B. G. it has been ascer-
tanned, what has long been supposed,
that Cualdea was the parent land Of as-
tronomy; for it ia found, from this COM
pilation and from other bricks, that the
Babylonians catalogued the stars, and
distinguished and named the Constella-
tions. They observed the seventh day
as a day of rest. They invented the sun
dial to mark the movements of the
heavenly bodies, the water clock TO
measure time, and they speak in this
work of the spots on the sun, fact they
could have known only by the aid If
telescopes, 8, which il is supposed they
possessed, from observations they have
noted down of the rising of Venus, and
the fact that Lavard found crystal lens
in the ruins of Ninevah. These "b-iCks"
contain an account of the deluge, sub
stantially the same as the narrative in
the Bible. They disclose that houses
and lands we're then Ro'd, leased and
mortgaged; that money was loaned at i'm
terest; and hat the market gardeners, to
use an American phrase, worked on
shares" that the farmer, when blowing
with his oxen, heguiled his labor with
homely songs, two OF which have been
found, and connect this very remote civ.
ilization with the usages Of our own
times.

inscribed upon some new bank notes,
said:
who would have thought of this spec
tacle score of years ago? This is an in
cident of interest, worthy of place upon
the bright page of the history of public
mans life"
The reporter of the event is silent as to
whether he afterwards went out and cele-
brated the event, but the presumption lies
that way. Let us hope that Bruce feels

Yesterday. according to Mother Ship
ton and other prophets, the world was to
come to an end. 1t is curious that it did
not, when there was such excellent auth
ority for it, but some things in this life do
not seem to turn out exactly as they
should, and the end Of the world seems to
be no exception. People before have got
ready for Gabriel, when Gabriel forgot to
come, and although the omission in this
case was disappointment to some, it
probably pleased the vast majority, Still
the revised Testament helps the matter
and therewere probably more men who
viewed the prophisied event with more com
posure than there would have been before
the late translators of the Bible sustained
Bob IngersoI. As it is, the Globe seems
to have taken new lease and will doubt
less last our time anyhow

We could forgive Mr.. Conkling almost
any political sin but one-his agency in
making General Arthur vice president of
the United States. Providence Press In
dependent Republican,
Which considering the facts in the case
is rather funny paragraph. Mr.. Conk
ling did not elect Arthur more than Gar
field. In fact he did more for the latter
than the former, because he needed more
help. Garfield and his friends were the
men who were the means of electing Ar
thur He was nominated to placate Conk-
ling, not because Conkling asked it how
ever, but because at that time Garfield and
his tribe were all willing, nay anxious, to
go down on their knees before Mr.. Conk-
ling and low in the dust, with uplifted
hands and streaming eyes ask for his aid
and assistance. Garfield and his sup
porters cared more about being elected
than they did about the terms on which
they were elected: and the consequence
was Arthur. If they are now disposed to
regard him as mistake, it was their own
fault and no one else is to blame.
The republican party, every man in
it, knew exactly what kind
Of man Arthur was. No man in public
life was ever more fully known, he never
has or never viii make any pretense him
self of being aught else than a machine
politician, yet the party elected him, and
now it is too late to object. Not paper
in all the party said one word about Ar
thur, except what was good, and yet they
knew him as well then as they do now.
Consequently the time has now passed, let
the party hold its peace.

REPUBLICANS INDIGNANT.
ur esteemed Contemporary, the Tribune

Our esteemed contemporary, the Tribune
says:
1.-The majority of Mr. Bradley's constituents are
represented being indignant his attitude in the
whole mgtter''
And we presume these representations
are correct. From the recent history of
the Republican party, what is to be ex-
pected but that majority of its members
should be indignant at any effort to expose
bribery and corruption within it's ranks?
Why do the Republicans care SO little
for Conkling now, and SO much for Gar
field? Simply because Conkling has done
his work in securing the election of a Re
Republican President, and they have no
further use for him just at present; while
Garfield controls the division of the spoils.
They are naturally indignant at anything
that interferes with the speedy and rapid
flow of that division.-N. 7. Sun.

1t is difficult to say which is the more
instructive and characteristic spectacle
the Republican Sessions Bradley incident
or the Republican investigation thereof.
The half breeds have appointed COM
mittee to consult with the stalwarts how to
break the deadlock. This is decidedly a
new departure Everybody has heard of
the exultant hunter who shouted for some
one to come and and help him let go of
the catamount but surely this is the first
time that the hunter ever addressed this
appeal to the catamount!
Mr. Charles Foster, of Fostoria, o.,
vulgarly known as Calico Charley" is so
confident of Republican success at the
election in Ohio this fall that he is anxious
to get the Berlin mission. Ohio candidates
tell which way the wind blows.
The Republican Legislature, taken by
and large, docs not impress our esteemed
Republican contemporary the Times with
very lofty idea of the ability and virtue
of its members. Yet they were chosen in
a year when a desperate contest for the
Presidency was being fought and when the
party journals insisted that the best posi-
BILE candidates should be placed in the field
so as to help the nation ticket 1t is an
old political axiom that the government
of people is no better and no worse than
the people It is at least equally true that
the candidates of party are fairly rep
resentative Of the party. What honest
man can enjoy confessing himself to be q
Republican by the light Of this standard?

Schuyler Colfax has turned the light of
his countenance toward Virginia and offers
aid and comfort to Malone. Colfax's aid
was refused by the republican party last
fall, on account of his sooty character,
when the party had Garfield for its candi-
date and Dorsey as the Saviour. The good he
can do for Malone is doubtless small but
Colfax's idea of the proper disposal of a
delegated vote bears strong resemblance
to Mahone's, and "a fellow feeling makes
us wondrous kind

The members Of the New York assembly

have got the matter of accepting brides
down to nicely. They are too honest to
take money out of some lobbyists hand,
that would be bribery, you know, but they
compromise their desires and their scruples
by winning it at cards. Sessions testified
that whenever an important bill was to be
passed, the members whom the lobbyists
desired to influence would be invited into
the lobbyists rooms and there would win
at the innocent game of poker, whatever
amount had been previously agreed upon.
It was nice little scheme and caused no
trouble; if member did not know how to
play the game he was soon instructed.
