make its operations clear to the nOr-tech-
nicaI mind, we may imagine 100 cubic
feet OF air compressed by a pump to the
dimension OF l cubic foU', aud passed lato
a chamber in. ttAt condition. Ohe hnalred
cubic feet OF air, we will suppose, contains
100 items of heat. 1t is obvious, there-
fore, that the single cubic foot in'o which
the air has been compressed c~"ntains 100
items Of heat. This air so compressed is
forced in films through THU annual spaces
provided by placing one small tube Inside
another slightly larger, aud at the same
time surrounded with a constant flow of
, 1882-05-27

cold water, so thatthe heat in the compressed
air is conveyed through the copper tubes
into the water, which passes away from
tie tubes quite hot. By this means SO
of the 100 items of heat have left the COM
pressed air, and when it is permitted to pass
from the machine and resume its natural
proportion, each cubic foot of air contains
only IA huudredlh part of the heat it for
merry did. Air OF an ordinary summertem-
perature can quickly be reduced by this
machine to a temperature OF 80 degrees
below zero. The cold air thus created
passes from the machine into a large cham
Der Just above the propeller shaft capable
OF holding 1900 sheep. The air being
originally drawn from this chamber and
repeatedly re-pXtracted aud returned to il,
each tirne cooler than it was before, 1t IS
easy to conceive that a very low tempera-
ture can be maintained even in q large
chamber. On the voyage south, (from GIas-
gov to LOndou) a temperature of ten de-
grees below zero was maintained IN the
empty chamber.
Some difficulties have arisen in the
carri9ge of this frozen meat from the Aus
~trtliau g~razjer to the British consumer on
account OF the absence OF freezing stations
where the sheep are killed and similar
depots here where it can be stored and
the flooding OF the market avoided. AT
present the statesmen carry off the whole
cargo at a ridiculous price and transfer il
to the consumer without due distinction
between it and homegrown mutton. A
more systematic arrangement of the trade,
which it is hoped will follow the ample
opportunities for Importation supplied by
the AustraI, should place at the command
OF tn public Australian mutton at a price
mach below that it at present costs the
gSumer.-U b3d.

The DEAN OF Mr. DarWin
From lie Times ].

On Wednesday, the 18th inst, one
of the greatest of our countrymen
passed away. Suddenly and almost
without warni g the long and noble
lie Of Charles Darwin came to an
end. He had reached the age Of
seyenty-three, and though his health,
always delicate, had lately shown
signs of giving way, he died almost
literally in harness, working to the
last. To-day and for a long time to
come, he will be mourned by all
those in every land who can appre-
ciate his vast services to knowledge,
and who honour a lifelong devotion
to truth; but with the mourning there
will be joined the thought that he
was happy in living SO long, sur
rounded by devoted friends, and
spared not only to do the work that
he had set himself to do, but to see
it accepted on every side. The storm
which howled around The Origin
Of Species at its first appearance has
subsidized. Even the orthodox are
" adapting themselves to their envi-
"ronment," and are beginning to re-
gard Evolution as a hypothesis which.
may in a measure be harmonized
with their first principles. The story
of such scenes as those which took
place at the celebrated meeting of
the British Association at Oxford, in
1860, and of the battle royal between
Bishop Wilberforce and the young
and ardent Mr.. Huxley, reads at the
present day like a scene from n
cienG history; like an episode in the
persecution of Calico, or a prelimi-
nary to the communication Of Spi-
noza. The time has gone by when
it was conceived possible to extin-
guish a scientific hypothesis by au-
thority. Moreover, in little more
than twenty years, that which is
called the Darwinian hypothesis has
established itself as, practically speak
ing, n Of the accepted generaliza-
tons of science. 1t is not too much
TO say that there is no mar of real
scientific eminence in Europe or
America who does not now hold to
it in the main. In Germany, in
England, in the United States, all

ing to the few who may be unreasonable
enough to disregard, or underrate the
value of such institutions.
Unfortunately, however, we either lack
the spirit OF enterprise necessary to con
celye and push forward such a plan for
ourselves, or we are but too content to run
on ever in the same well.wOrn groove;
entirely regardless of the advantages
opened up to us by a system OF this KIND.
Not but that we would be pleased to
observe any improvements IN the different
breeds OF our cattle, or in the more tho
rough development of the branches OF our
agriculture, but we are content to 90 on
in "the ever tenOur of our way" from one
years end to another, with characteristic
indifference to the advancementS made in
these matters by the inhabitants OF other
Islands in these parts OF the world, and
though many of us are sometimes perfectly
well aware of our inferiOrity, yet We are
satisfied to sit, like the man in the old
fable of ASOp, calling upon Hercules to
assist us to draw our wagon out of the
mire in which it has stuck fast, while
by an effort of our own, it could be done.
Competition has ever been the greatest
incentive and aid to Improvement, and
from time immemorial has never failed to
advance its object along to the attain
ment Of y higher degree Of perfection.
The knowledge OF this fact is surely a qua
rantee of the usefulness Of any institution
of this kind to uS,-a society. for example,
that would recognize and reward by Its
marks OF distinction and merit, any sue
cessfUl efforts in both agriculture and
horticulture. Unless | have been mis-in-
formed, some such society existed many
wears ago, but somehow did not flourish

Aiter stating that the two new ships
which were being built for item by
the Barrow Shipbuiiding Company
were making satisfactory PROCESS,
he referred TO the wreck Of the
Tiber and lhe loss OF The Douro,
and earnestly deprecated any Discus
sion On either disaster ON that occa-
sion. With regard to the coIll0on
Of the No>eIIt wlth the Vcneranda,
after the action in the Admiralty
Couthad been decided against The
company, they held a strict inyestiga-
ton INTO The conduct OF the captain
ans. lhicers OF ihc H%osclie, with there
suit that they could not find any n
to blame. This matter might, be
Thought, involve them in a loss of
between IS, 600 and 10000. The
dividend and bonus now declared,
with the previous bonus, would be
equal to a distribution of y per cent.
on the par value of their shares.

ColviIle presiding. In moving the
adoption Of the report, the chairman
observed that they had every reason
to congratulate themselves on the
very marked improvement exhibited
by The rcvenue and working account
as compared with last year. The
total receipts had increased from
G70S,000 to 9790, GOO. lie had
often spoken of the benefits which
they would derive from a sight in
crease in the fre:ghts, aud he hoped
that the increase would be greater
in the future than it had been in the
past year. There had been a. Slight
decrease in the amount they had re-
ceis ed from Government contracts
and postal services-frOm 99S, $50 to
G97,135! but the only other item on
the credit side of the eyenue &C
count which showed any diminutIon
was the ntetcoloniaI passage money.
That was owing to the quarantine
regulations which had been made in
certain of the islands of the West
Indies which were free from cpl
denies which had prevailed in other
islands, but as these regulations were
now virtually at an end, he hoped
they would recover in the current
year the deficiency of about $4,000
in that item. Notwithstanding that
decrease the general increase in the
receipts for the past year. had been
ESQ 900. -Four more voyages had
been made, entaiIing an additional

Saved From hnIalda.

While walking about the river
front, at two o'clock this morning.
Captain Hacket found a coat and vest,
standing collar aud cravat lying upon
a cotton bale and naturally east about
for a man with snakes in his coat.
Failing in this he scanned the surface
Of the river for a suicide, but this
also was q vain hope. The levee
watchman soon afterwards came up,
with a man in his shirt sleeves, who
claimed to be the owner of the articles
on the cotton bale. When asked why
he put them there, he said they had
been taken from him by a fellow who
afterwards riaed the pocket Of his
coat, of ten dollars. The narrator
suddenly interrupted himself by ask
ing in his sweetest manner Have you
such a thing as a razor about your"
mo, but | have a pocket knife said
Hackett, Why"
For answer the poor young man
drew his finger across his throat
This was enough to verify former sus-
picions, and the would be suicide was
locked up for safe keeping.

Much Ado About Nothing.

Sometime yesterday morning thieves
cut a panel from the door of Charley
Krause's saloon and carried a small
iron safe out Of the back door into the
yard. Then they filled the key hole
with powder; then a long pole was
procured, and in a split at one end a
cigar was fixed. The bold robbers
cast lots for the honor of touching
her off" and Che fortunate man went
bravely to work. From tie appear
ance Of the cigar, it is evident that he
closed his eyes and gave a job with the
pole at the same moment, and con-
tinued to do this with very poor aim
and success until frightened away by
some unusual noise. The safe con
tanned only S25, and the owner found
this and his safe all right yesterday
morning.

An American King.

HA AAAAAAAN0M AAADS
When the curtain fell on the first
act of An American King" at Leu
brie's last night, the audience felt a
little doubtful about the balance of
the play, but the interest grew from
the moment the curtain rose upon the
second act until it fell on the last. AT
the end of the third act the applause
was deafeniDg, and the curtain rose
no less than four times in answer to
encores. Mr.. 0'Niell was at last
obliged to appear before the curtain
in order to satisfy the audience
that his madness was all affected.
The wooing Of O'Neill was rather
exaggerated aud unreal, and in one or
