THE NEW CONSTITUTION.

The parade in honor of the return Of
the 'New Constitution" started nom
jackson & Sharp's about 8 o'clock last
night, and passed over the route announ'
ced In yesterday's REPUBLICAN. The
streets were lined with people, and the

Chief Marshal and rode at the head OF
the column, with the following assist
ants:
Howard L. Chandler, Samuel Knox,
DR.. J. Paul Lukens, Lewis g. Stidham,
Eugene q. Dawson, George Smith and
W. E. Mitchell.
Immediately after them came the
City Cornet Band, followed by Captain
Edmund Mitchell, Jr., with the Young
Mems Republican Club. The New
Constitution came next, drawn by eight
horses, and appeared as new and fresh
as when she first started out. The ship
was almost covered with flowers, ever
green's and flags, and contained a pair
of blue hens and pair, of cOons. A
meeting was organized on Fourth street,
which from Orange almost to French
street was dense macs OF people. Col.
q. A. Macallister called the meeting to
order, and ringing speeches were deliv-
cred by Frederick L. Bach, Henry q.
Conrad, Esq, and W Washington Hastings.
1t was one of the largest and most en-

whenever the speakers predicted a

greeted with cheers. 4

now nearly ready for occupancy.
The Board has determined to receive
donations Of all kinds until the opening,
but they request that all shipments be
made not later than November q, and
as much sooner aSpossibie. Articles Of

every acre Of ground, over $1,000
worms. These eat and digest from
eight to sixteen tons of soil per acre
in the course of the year. Whatever
passes through the intestinal canal Of
the worm becomes vegetable mold,
and without this mold there would be
no crops and no increase Of grain or
the animals which feed upon the
products of the soil. Nor is this
all. The worm is the preserver of
the memorials Of the past. It's
mission is to cover naked sur
faces with vegetable mold. The
deserted cities and memorials
Of the past are first hidden from sight
by the ejecta of the worm. Then
comes the dust and the sand storm
and the accretions from outside Of our
atmosphere. Troy is two hundred
feet under ground, and it took three
thousand years to cover it with so
much soil, but the earth-worm is the
great sexton who bruises the monu-
ments of the past out of sight. Yet
this wriggling, loatbsome creature is
one of the most degraded and imper-
feet organisms known to naturalists.
1t has no brain, no organs of vision,
cannot hear, and has no sense Of smell.
1t has certain amount Of intelligence,
and knows enough to get out Of the
sunlight. But notwithstanding its
deficiencies, it is the greatest benfac-
tor not only to man but to the other
superior animals. 1t may comfort
fishermen to know that the worm they
use in angling has but little nervous
sensibility, and cannot be said to suf.
fer pain vixen impaled on the fish
hook. 1t will not do hereafter to de
spise the worm, for, as the London
paper well says, 1t, from this time
forth, will wear the blue ribbon Of
science"

BOFealis = What Professor
stone has to say Of Them.

The aurora borealis of Sunday night,
natures most beautiful panorama, and
the numerous spots visible on the sun
were sufficient to urge Millerite to
a pitch of frensy. Two such develop.
ments two or three centuries ago would
have driven a multitude to suicide
and their coffins. Prof Stone, of the
Cincinnati Observatory, was inter-
viewed on these subjects with the fol-
lowing result:
what's the phenomenon seen by
so many this morning2"
I'VE are now at the time when sun
spots are most frequent. This period
recurs once in about eleven years.
Five years ago, in 1873, the sun was
observed here on LAT days, and only on
twenty three days were spots
seen. The relative number
Of days on which spots are
visible through the telescope has been
increasing each year since 1873, and
last year, out of l45 days, spots we're
visible every day, and lately the num-
Der of spots visible has been at times
enormous. The largest number ever
observed here was thismOrning when at
one time 264 spots were visible, rang
ing in seven distinct groupes. Two Of
the grOupes were seen with the naked
eye, and probably the larger one was
the one seen SO plainly in the city.
These spots are storms in the gaseous
envelope of the sun, somewhat similar
to cyclones in the atmosphere of the
earth. In my experience have never
seen so many before as on this morn

quency of each, the frequency of au.
roras having a periodicity of eleven
years, ooinciding with that of the
spots Of the sun. In many cases solar
disturbances have been accompanied
by magnetic storms and auroras on the
earth. In 1859 two sun spots we're
seen by Mr.. Darlington, of England,
to move over the space Of 30. 900 miles
during an interval of FIVE minutes.
On the same day auroras were seen in
all parts of the world, even in the
tropics, where they seldom appear.
At the same time great electro mag
netic storms took place. In one place
telegraphic apparatus was set FIRE to.
From the accounts in the morning
papers similar storms are in progress.
DO these magnetic storms affect
the weather."
II am not aware that they do. AL
though in regions subject TO floods and
droughts a periodicity in meteorOlog-
ical phenomena is Coincident with
that of the storms in the sun. For
instance, famines in India almost al
ways occur when sun spots are least
frequent, since in these years the
weather is very dry, no storms occur

Captain Hooper says that there is

there is in assassinating COW in the

approach Of man, and under no cir

so badly that it cannot get

sportsman has to do is to blaze
away until the bear gives up the ghost.

ApOtheOsis Of the Worm.

The cut worms, now devastating
gardens and cotton fields so generally
in this vicinity, is nota useless insti-
tuition, after all, according to the
theory of DR.. Charles Darwin. 1t
may console many who have suffered
loss of vegetables, and those compelled
to replant cotton fields, to know what
Darwin has to say on the subject.
His work is creating a profound SEN
sation in scientific circles. He has
been studying the common earth
worm for over thirty years, and has
come to the conclusion that mankind
is more indebted to that loathsOme,
wriggling little creature than to any
other race of the inferior orders Of
creation. The earth, according to
Darwin, would be a desert if it we're
not for the worm. Its value is that 1t
eats dirt and turns it into vegetable
mold, There are on an average, on

FOREIGN AFFAIRS.

LONDON, April 28.-Dr. Lamson
was hung at 9 9o'clock this morning.
He was calm and composed.
Only three reporters were present
at the hanging. The procession
entered the yard of the prison at S;55,
when the prison bell was tolling the
death knell. The chaplain headed
the procession. He was followed by
two prison officials with their wands.
The prisoner, who, until the time Of
starting, had been calm and composed,
looked awiully pale and detected
and very nervous. He was sup
ported by wardens on either side and
was with difficulty able to descend the
steps to the yard. He was met byWar-
wood, the executioner, at the foot of
the steps.
The prisoner was bareheaded. The
operation OF pinioning him seemed in
terminable. He submitted without a
word, and hardly seemed to appreciate
what was going on. From the steps
there was a distance Of about sixty
yards to traverse to the gallows, and
Lamson was supported with difficulty
from this point to the scaffold. he
swayed backward and forward, and
glared wildly around him. When
placed under the moose, the chaplain
who appeared much affected, then
began reading the burial service
Lamson meanwhile being supported by
two gaolers. Just before the cap was
adjusted he cast down his eyes with 9
look Of extreme despair. The dror
was nine feet, and death was instAnta.
