against the supremacy of England: The
latter power possesses half dozen iron
clads any one of which could easily destroy
the whole of our navy in few hours.
Is it possible that China can be enabled
to contend on equal terms with power
SO equipped, by giving her the ser
vices of Commodore Shufeldt? The fact
is that the gallant officer named ap-
pears to be the only person in this
connection who has any particular reason
for feeling satisfied. He is to get $50, 600
year for his services, and the appointment
may last several years. But there is no
ground for concluding that China will gain
anything by his appointment, and it is toll
erably certain that the Western powers
will regard the arrangement with placid
equanimity, as matter possessing no sig
nifcance for them. If Mr.. Blaine really
wishes to break down the supremacy of
England in the East, he has certainly
adopted singular method of carrying that
policy into effect in fact we fear that it

ELECTRICITY.

The city of London is about to try elec-
trio lighting. Acting on the report of their
engineer, Colonel Haywood, the Jabloch-
koff system was tested on Holborn Viaduct
from December IA, 1878, to March 9, 1879.
During that period sixteen electric lamps
were used in place Of eighty-six ordinary
lamps, fourteen being placed at equal in
tervals on either side of 473 yards OF street,
in the middle of the roadway. Each lamp
Illuminated about SSS yards specifically,
and was kept burning seven hours per
night at cost of 6s Sd. No exact photo
metrical observations were made by the
Commissioners during this experiment, be-
cause the Metropolitan Board of Works
were conducting simultaneously the cleo
trio lighting of the Thames Embankment,
under exactly similar conditions, and
the scientific officers of the Board
came to the conclusion that the illumi-
mating power of the light when uninclosed
was about i've times that of ordinary gas,
and when inclosed in the opal globes used
on the Viaduct about twice as much, while
the actual cost was nearly four times as
much as gas. The companies have greatly
reduced the cost of producing the light
since then, and of course made it a more
formidable competitor with gas. Under
these fresh conditions the Commissioners
of Sewers have decided to try the Jabloch-
koff. the Brush and the Siemens systems.
The first will be applied to Southwark
Bridge, Queen Victoria street, and
part of Queen street; tie Sec
ond to New Bridge street, Ludga' Circus,
Ludgate Hill, the north side of st. Paul's
churchyard, and thence along Oh capsule as
far as King street and the third to the
remainder of Cheapside, tie Poultry,
King street, Guildhall Yard, Mansion
House street, King William street, and
London Bridge. The contract price is
e. $50 for the Jablochkof; LAO for the

BLAINE's FoERIGN POLICY.

The San pokes fun at Blaine's foreign pol
icy, as illustrated by the Chinese appoint
ment of Commodore Shufeldt. 1t SAYS
that the Secretary advised Shufeldt to ac-
cept the offer of the Chinese Government,
on the ground that sit would have some
"effect in breaking up England supremacy
e in the East. The Sun thinks sit is not
"quite clear how the introduction of Amer
" lean methods in the management of the
Chinese navy is to help break up Eng
lands supremacy. Making the Chinese
navy more like the American navy will
not make it more terrible to foreign
81 powers than it is. Indeed, Blaine's ag-
" gressive policy would seem to be directed
" against China herself, rather than against
" England" Perhaps that is the true ex-
PLANTATION Of the matter. Mr.. Blaine has
taken very decided position against Chi.
nese immigration, and possibly he seeks to
strike the Mongols as it were between wind
and water, by bestowing upon them the
Greek gift of an American naval
instructor. He may have reflected that by
SO doing it viii be possible to delude the
hated Mongols into the belief that they
are acquiring a formidable navy, when in
reality they are only securing a navy SINH
lar to that of the United States. Suppose
that Commodore Shufeldt should raise the
Chinese navy to an absolute equality with
cur own. Does Mr.. Blaine think that
China would then be IL position to rebel

TIE ENDOWMENT OF SCIENTIFIC RE-
SEARCH

What claim for assistance has science
upon the people and upon the State? The
question is plain and simple enough, but
the more it is turned the more far-reaching
does it prove. The idea which it embodies
Is so intimately interviewer with the pros
perity of nations, and the happiness, intel.
lectuality and morality of the peoples,
that in greater or less degree science
fairly enters into the every day business of
one and all. As the air we breathe, it
surrounds and supports us; without its
vitalizing power we should soon suffer
intellectual death. 1t bears directly upon
the prosperity of States, because it eluci-
dates the natural laws which underlie all
great engineering projects, as well as the
principles of sociology. 1t comes to the
aid of commerce, because it develops the
model of the ship, the prevalence of winds
and the strength and direction of currents,
and marks out the pathways over the
oceans. For the manufacturer it estab-
fishes the economy of motive power, and
the best means of using raw products and
utilizing waste materials. 1t informs the
agriculturist of the qualities of his soil
and its fitness for special productions, the
introduction of new plants, and the neces-
sity for particular fertilizers and to the
miner 1t certifies the character and richness
of the ores in his ledge. It advises the
governments in grave subjects of sanitary
engineering, OF prospective discovery, of
serious authorizations in imports, in foods,
in manufactures. It gives you to-day the
variation of the compass, and assures the
highest tribunals what it was at any given
date. It demonstrates the millionth part
Of an inch as tangible quantity, and it
gives the metes and bounds of states and
empires. 1t predicts the coming storm,
and millions of dollars and thousands of
lives, ready for sea, promptly obey its
warning. 1t yearly fixes its stamp upon
the coinage of the country, and makes it
redeemable for its face the world over; it
indorses the authenticity of the standards
of weight, volume and length, and its ver-
dict is universally accepted. Yet these
are mere glimpse of its manifold ramifi-
cations as nerve system in the body

CATION is paramount IN every department

seeking for worldly prosperity science
comes in a thousand subtitle shapes now SO
widespread and permeating every business
that its direct bearing is too frequently
overlooked or quietly ignored. And in

a cR1tIc HoAxgD.

They are laughing good deal at
Richard Grant White just now in the
East. In the last issue of the Atlantic
Monthly he had a paper on English Gus
toms and peculiarities, and in it he told
an astonishing story about man named
Marley, who he said was the public
hangman, and who had cards printed,
bearing the inscription, CIV Marley, ex-
ecutioner. Executions attended to with
promptness and dispatch" Upon this
card Mr.. White moralized for two or three
pages. marveling at the eallousness which
could induce public executioner thus to
parade his dreadful calling, and being
especially surprised that such function
airy should advertise his readiness to
perform the duties of his office. And
now comes some cruel critic, and shows
that Mr.. White has been pisilessly hoaxed.
That the term "executioner" in EGG
land is used to denote Sheriff's officer
or constable man who levies executions,
in fact; and that the card of ''W.
Marley" was simply and merely the
business card Of such a person. Mr..
White ought to have known, to begin with,
that the real name of Jack Ketch is not
Marley. If we remember rightly it is
Marwood. But the real public executioner
does not hang out signs or have his
functions printed on cards, and alto
gether Mr.. White has made sad mess of
his criticism.
