SCIENTIFIC MISCELLANY,

The italian Government proposes
exploring the depths of tho Medtcr-
ranean this summer.
Herr Tromholt thinks he can trace q
connection between the frequency of dis
plays of aurora and the phases Of the
moon.
DR.. RicouS maintains that While
Spaniarls, Italians, and French can be
acclimatized i'll Algeria, people from the
North of Europe can not, This result, if
we'll established, may have a very i'm
portant bearing upon the colonization of
Africa in the near future
M. Grehaut has proven in recent ex-
pcriments that the quantity of carbonic
acid cxhaled by any one individual of al
animal species varies but little. Irrita-
tions and intlammations of the respiratory
mucous membrane decrease the exhala-
tion Of carbonic acid, which then tends
to accumulate in the blood.
The great telescope just completed
by Howard Grubb, of Dublin, for the
Vienna Observatory is the largest re-
tractor now in existence. The steel tube
is thirty-three and and half feet in
length, and the instrument weighs nearly
seven tons. The object glass is twenty
seven inches in diameter, while that of
ths great telescope at Washington: hither-
to the largest in the world, measures
twenty-siN inches.
AT the Paris Observatory Thollon is
carefully studying the suns surface, and
has described number of interesting
hydrogen explosions, appearing like
gigantic displays of fireworks and some
times remaining visible for two days.
One of them sent forth stream Of fire to
a height of more than 200, 600 miles-a
distance nearly equal to that of the
moon from the earth-while explosions
reaching a height of $4,000 to 1000
miles are by no means infrequent.
A certain Count Hugo Won Engen-
berg. of Tratzberg, in tie Tyrol, is MAX
ing use of microphones-sunk i'll the
ground on the declivity of 4 hill, and
connected separately with single tele-
phone and small hattery-to discover a
source Of water for his castle He in
tends to conduct the experiment by
night, when disturbing sounds and Vi
brations of the ground are less frequent
than by day. "a stream of water flows
near the apparatus, It will pass the
sound to the telephone, and thus reveal
tile spring.

BY COL EUGENE TIsDALE.
Read at Chalmette Cemetery on Decoration
Day, 1881.
With bud and bloom the sombre tomb
Religiolsly arraying,
Through Chalmettes arch again we march
Enlogistic music playing,
And beauty weaves the thoughtful thread
OF faith to deck the noble dead,
While flowers that mark this vcrdunt park
Each warrior grave attesting
Direct Alright through realms Of light
To swccter fields of resting,
Even to Eden's fruitful grove
Transcendent with celestial love.
All! love that's true full oft anew
Terrestrial whispcrs-dearcst
And the fairest song of poet throng
Celestial rings the clcarest
Pardon then if in vain my soul
Keeping with reason in truths control
Cries drive them forth that say up North
God only holds communion!
And close the mouth that says the South
To-day desires disunion-
For He who ruleth all things best
Rulss equal East, North, South and West
Ye daring few-or gray or blue,
That scorn the rifles rattle,
And in fierce dash and sangrine clash
Have borne the brunt of battle.
WHO come as soldiers should to-day
At Honor's grave to homage pay
Awhile dcploy from life and JOY
Again to death and sorrow,
Anew to mourn before the urn
OF a soldier trne and thorough
For seldom man in dangers hour
Brayer than General Joseph Mower!
Comrades! to-day the blue and gray,
Serene from fields of sufferance
With Grant or Lee, have opened free,
The golden door of utterance;
And from Alaska's barren shade
10 Florida's luxuriant glade,
From hills of Maine to blooming plain
Of Texas, thrills one story:
Men. heart and hand, united stand,
Columbia's pride and glory,
While her bold flag waves, on land or sea,
Proud, fearless, beautiful and free.
