What is Gong On in.the Sun.

The finest display of sun spots that has
been visible in long time can now be seen
with moderate telescope power. Several
groups are strung along north of the suns
equator and resching quite across the disk.
The number Of individual spots is large,
and they vary in size from the huge sun
chasms capacious enough to swallow up the
earth, down to mere specks that it requires
steady gazing to detect. All about the spots,
which seem to be moving like a procession
across the disk, the surface is heaved up in
to the shining ridges called facule. Most OF
these spots haye formed within the last two
days. On Saturday there was only one
group, containing three or four principal
spots, visible with the same telescope that on
Sunday and yesterday showed four complex
groups composed of many spots, and having
other minute specks scattered between them
The westernmost Of these groups will pro-
badly have passed out of sight around the
edge of the sun by to-day.-N Y. Sun FEB. 9.

An Axe to Grind.

Charles Miner, says the West Chester
Village Record, who for many years was the
editor and proprietor of this paper, was the
author of the expression, ian axe to grind"
While editing paper at Wilkes-Barre he
wrote a series of articles on morals aud
domestic economy, among them being a
paper entitled "Who'll Turn the Grind.
stone?" in which was the origin of the ex-
preston. The author says that when he
was little boy he was accosted one cold
winter morning by man with an axe on his
shoulder. "My pretty boy" said he, "has
your father a grindstone?" eyes, sir. 1"
said l. 'You are fine little fellow" said
he; "Will you let me grind my axe upon
it?" Pleased by the compliment of "tiue
little fellow" the geutleman's bidding was
done bv the boy, water being procured for
him and the grindstone in motion until the
boys hands were blistered, the smiling gent
keeping up his fiattery meanwhile. Before
the grinding was finished the school bell
rang, and after the axe had the proper edge
on it, the man ungraciOusly exclaimed:
"Now, you little rascal, you've played the
truant ;scud to school, or you'll rue it."
The suthor says that he felt very much
wounded and never forgot the Incident,
and ever afterward when he saw one person
fattering another he said to himself, that
man has an axe TO grind.

OR AMERICANISMS.

A writer in the London Daily Netos says:
1t is not infrequently believed that many So
called "Yankee" words and expressions are
inventions Of Americans, and are laughed at
as American slang, whereas in most cases
they are old English words that have fallen
we'd over there. Asfor example, the express
sion, at is too thin," applied to statemen mt
not calculated 10 be successful in deceiving
any one, is here regarded as horrible
piece of American slang" and yet we find
it used in the same sense by Shakespeare and
in the mouth of no less person than the
King of England Henry VIID. Many 9TH
er expressions might be mentioned, If nee
essary. Mr.. Booth, if he has occasion to
mention certain vessel, will say "vase," "
instead of "vahse;" if he has to speak OF a
persons anger, he will say wrath" instead
| of "rorth" as we hear it so often in Eng land
and if he abbreviates the expression declar'
ing inability, he will say "can't" instead OF
"carn'r. An examination of the whole
subject might give color to the claim pre-
ferred by the cultared in America that they
use purer English than the majority of edu-
Gated persons in England. The truth is that
original "Americanisms" are few, and the
Epglishmau who sneers at them does so at
the expense of his ancestors. Even the good
old Yankee ear-mark "I guess" is as old a.
Chaucer, who, as "the Father of the Eng
lsh language" is not wholly. obsolete as an
authority He frequently uses it in tht
modern sense, as in describing Enelie in
'The Knights Tale:"

Doctors Differ as to the Causes of General
Washingtons Death.

DIR. Doane has said, and fortified his say
ing by quoting number of good authorities,
that General Washington, the Father of our
Country, lost his life by diphtheria, while
DIR. Chase Craig, says he was bled to death.
Here is what the doctor said in lecture de.
livered before the Metropolitan Scientific
Association, in relation to the cause of Wash.
history sIat STieneraI Washington was bled
to death. His last illness was slight; and
caused principally by WEAKNESS. A physi-
clan was called who ''bled" him copiovsly.
Strange to say, the patient became no better.
Another doctor was called, who again took
away large amount of the vital fluid
Thus in succession four physicians drew
away the life of great man who was intend
ed by nature for an old age, and who prema-
turely died-murdered BY malpractice
bled to death. That was the age of medical
bleeding

A Funeral AdPift ON Lake Erie.

A fun ersl of six or eight carriages started
on Thursday, of last week the worst day of
the storm, to 90 to the cemetery. They
we're obliged on account of the drifts to
take the road that runs along the lake shore,
and slowly plodded their way along what
they supposed was the proper street. Find
ing they did not reach their destination they
stopped after a while to investigate, and
found to their horror that they we're one
mile from land out on tho frozen waters of
Lake Erie. The ice was thin and treacher.
Gus, and in their bewildsrment they hardly
knew which way to turn, bnt at last, with
fear and trembling aud almost psrished with
cold, they crept back to the shore and re-
turned with their dead to the city to defer
their mourpful errand to another day
