THE PAPAL ARCHIVES. - The Papal
archives which Leo XII. recommended to
the attention Of Cardinals Lucca, Pitra and
Hergenrother a few days ago as furnish
ing invaluable materials for the defense
and justification OF the papacy, are stored
in the three floors of one of the Vatican
buildings called the "Specola," the lower
portion of which was the residence Of the
Popes brother before he became Car
dinal. The first floor, consisting of eight
rooms, is called the Department of Avig-
non," and is entirely taken up with re-
ceipts, bills, briefs, apostolic letters, etc,
collected by the Popes of Avignon during
the period of the schism. The four large
rooms into which the second floor is divided
contain what is called the Archives "del
Costello" collection of documents re-
ferring to the temporal power. The COL
lection derives it's name from the fact that
it was formerly kept In the castle of st.
Angelo. The space of the third floor is
entirely devoted to the correspondence of
the Popes with the nuncios accredited to
the different foreign powers. Among the
" miscellaneous papers deposited in one
room of the building is said to be the orig
inal manuscript of Dante's &c Divina Com
media" Reference to the Papal archives
is no easy matter. They are classed and
arranged, however, according to the differ.
enct countries to which they refer, and
this affords some help to the explorer in
his researches, Pail Mall Gazette.

BELLE OF TIE KISSING BEE.

1t would scarcely be doing the proper
thing for me to write the name of our host
or any of his family, but to such an extent
did one of his many girls attract me that l
have called her the "Catamarsn, and
will endeavor to describe her. A girl of
medium height, with deep brunette COM
plexion, hair as black as the ravens plume,
eyes as deep as the sea and as black as
Goals, with long eyelashes, and teeth like
miniature graveyard, white and regular as
the tombstones about five feet three
inches high, and as straight as an arrow.
a calico dress adorned her shapely person,
and we looked with admiration at her as
we sat in front of the door, and asked the
distance to Coffeeville. She said not a
word, but her rosy lips seemed to curl
with mingled scorn and admiration. Dim
pies graced her cheeks, and when she
laughed-as she did after a while-her
whole face was lit up in way that is in
describable. Mr.. Dash said it was not too
far to Coffeeville, but urged US to stay with
him. Jake seemed to know him. and we
concluded to stay for the night. The home
was much like all others in this section,
but the wife was a New York (0swego)
woman of culture, and we spent the even
ing very pleasantly. And here l will again
notice the Catamaran." She said but
little, but seemed to be ubiquitous Here
and there, everywhere in a minute. l
could hear her talk to the other children
for she seemed to be the general manager
and her tongue would swing like bell
clapper, but before US she said but little.
About s o'clock she disappeared, and l
looked in vain for her. After while a
wagon was heard coming, and in a moment
more a strapping big fellow Of about 20
came in and asked for the Catamarsn."
"Tll be there directly" said her voice
from some invisible quarter, and in a mo
ment mere she came bounding into the
room completely metamorphosed. But
will not speak of her dress
for beauty unadorned is adorned most.
Come, let's hurry" said she, pushing
her gallant to the door; "we'll be back
when we get here, said she, as she passed
into the darkness, and IL a moment more
the sound of hay wagon rumbling across
the prairie was all that was heard. asked
where she was going to, and her little Sis
ter said she was going to kissing bee, "
about ten miles away. She spoke as if it was
nothing unusual and no comments were
made uponit but thought of it after had
laid down, and wondered if such was the
custom of the country. She returned about
4 o'clock, and at 6 o'clock was up and
working as usual. A greater number of

to practical purposes? Indeed, indeed
they are. Short lines across ones farm are
run without paying any attention to them.
But when long lines are run the surveyor
should understand the above principles
and practice them. Were any OF my
readers with Captain Seward two years
ago, when he was running from Akron
through Medina to Tiffin for contem-
plated railroad. If SO, did you notice that
in some respects his method differed from
most surveyors while running lines across
farms. Suffice it to say, his method for
running a straight line from Akron to
Tiffin is a complete iudorsement and adop-
ton of the propositions set forth about.
Whether Captain Seward found that
straight line from Akron to Tittin or not,
there is an imaginary straight line between
those places, and it is hedged in by the
following conditions If 1t is the shortest
route between those places 1t is part OF
great circle, and no two rods OF part OF
great circle except the equator run IN the
same direction in reference to the points
of the compass. Therefore If straight
line be run from Akron to TiHin, no two
rods of its course run in the same dlrec-
ton.
In writing on this branch of geography
have omitted many of the most interest
ing and useful propositions because |
could not use diagrams to illustrate and
explain them. l have regretted that l
could not use diagrams to illustrate the
points to which 1 have referred. But per-
haps it is as well that have presented
this subject to the teachers of this coun-
ty without further illustration. L
hope that the mere mention of the some
what curious proposition above will excite
curiosity and stimulate Investigation to see
if these propositions are true. My young
teacher friends will make mistake if they
delude themselves with the idea that the
above points, though true, are of no utility.
Two more propositions will suffice. One
half of every great circle of the earth, ex.
cept the equator, is north of the equator,
and the other half is south of it. If
line be run one mile to a stake, then the
compass be set at the stake to run east an
other mile, and so on continuing to set the
compass to run east at the end of each
mile such line will approach the equator
forever, yet never reach it.

circle il would be the shortest route be-
tween the two points, and the entire route
would be further north than either of the
two points. If person in north latitude
starts in direction at right angles to
meridian, that is, if he starts due east and
keeps on III that straight line he will in 90
degrees cross the equator, and in going 80
degrees further he will be as far south of
the equator az he was north of it when he
started.
If in north latitade line be run due east
to an object mile off, and then from this
object line be run mile due west, this
last line viii not run back to the point of
starting but will run little south of it.
Not only will this be the case in running
lines east and west, but the same results
obtain in running lines in any d.
rectieI except north or south. For
instance. let line of one mile
be run north by 20 degrees west,
then set the compass at the other end of
the line TO run south by 20 degrees east,
and this last line will not run back to the
place Of starting l will here beg pardon
beforehand of all persons that live on a SO.
called east and west road. Please be con-
WINGED that a line or road that is straight
never runs due east and west, SO far as one
rod of its course, though it be thousand
miles in length.
If the road is straight, and runs east and
west at the Courthouse, it does not run
east and west at the depot. How can it /?
For line or road to run east and west, it
must CROSS meridians at right angles. If
the road cross a meridian at right angles at
the Court house, it cannot cross meridian
at right angles at the depot, for meridians
are not parallel. So you see that the idea
of living on a straight road that runs due
east and west through township, or half
mile beside your farm, is a myth, hum
bug, 3 delusion.
