PHoToGRAPHING THE CoRoNA.-Prof.
higgins announces that he has succeeded
in photographing the solar corona without
the assistance of an eclipse. It having been
shown by Prof. Schuster's observations of
the last eclipse that the coroual light as a
whole is very strong In the region of the
spectrum extending from about G to II, he
conceived that by making exclusive use of
this part OF the spectrum, while enjoying
the best possible conditions OF exposure and
concentration, it might bs possible to take
photograph of the kind sought. He found
commercial violet tpotj glass which effect.
ed the separation required, and using this
and potassic permanganate solution in
his later xperiments-with rejecting
telescope and gelatine plates, be obtained
twenty successful photographs between
June ard the 2S.h of September of last
year. Captain Abney, whose experiments
during the last eclipse have made him q
competent judge, declares the photographs
as trustworthy as any that were taken
then. Prof. Higgins believes that there
is little doubt that under the most favor.
able conditions the corona may by his
method be successfully photographed from
day to day with definiteness which would
allow Of the study OF TIE changes which
are doubtless always going on in il. By
an adjustment Of the times OF exposure

THE GAIN or SUNDAY REST OF course
I do not mean that man will not produce
more in a week by working seven days
than by working six days. But 1 very
much doubt whether, at the end of the
year, be will generally have produced more
by working seven days a week, and / firmly
believe that st the end of twenty years he
will have produced less by working seven
days week than by working six days
week. The natural difference between
Campania and Spitzbergen is trilng when
compared with the difference between a
country inhabited by men full of bodily
and mental vigor and q country inhabited
by men sunk IN budily and mental 6ecrepi-
tude, Therefore it is we are not poorer,
but richer, because we have, through many
ages, rested from our labor one day in
seven. That day is not lost. While in.
dustry is suspended, while the plow lies
in the furrow, while the exchange is 81
lent, while no smoke ascends from the fac.
tory, process is going on quite as impor.
tsns to the wealth of the nation as any
process which is performed on more busy
days. Man, the machine OF machines-
the machine compared with which all the
contrivances of Watts and Arkwright are
worthless-is repairing and winding up, co.

A Mining Disaster.

CHINESE PoIsoNs. The commonest pois-
ons are said to be opium, arsenic and GER
tam noxious essences derived from herbs.
But besides these other things are taken by
suicides and given by murderers to cause
death In some of the Southern provinces
there exists particular kind of silk-worm,
known as the Golden Silk-worm, which is
reared by miscreants to serve either pur.
pose as occasion may require. Quicksilver,
which is also used with fatal effect, is
either swallowed, or, like the "juice of
cursed hebenon" which sent Hamlet's father
to his account, is poured into the ear. The
torture necessarily consequent on this last
method of using it must be SO excessive
that it may safely be assumed that it finds
favor only with mutderers. Swallowing
gold, on the other hand, seems to be the
favorite way Of seeking death with wealthy
suicides. 1t has been held by some writer's
that the expression "swallowing gold" is
but metaphorical phrase meaning "swal-
lowing poison" just as when notable cul-
prit is ordered to strangle himself he is said
to have had "a silken cord sent TO him.
But the "Coroners' Manual puts it be-
yond question that gold is actually swsl-
lowed. and itiprescribes the remedies which
should be adopted to effect cure. Gold
ros being poison, death is the result
either of suffocation or laceration of the
intestines. When suffccation is imminent,
draughts of strained rice-water, we are
told, should be given to wash the gold
downward, and when this object has been
attained, the flesh of partridges, among
other things, should be eaten by the patient
to ''soften the gold" and thus prevent its
doing injury. Silver is also taken in the
same way. But though wealthy Cinnamon
thus find pleasure in seeking extinction
by means OF the precious metals, thsy have
never gone the length Of pounding diamonds
to get rid Of either themselves or their en-
emies after the manner of Indian potentates.
