Virgins. tho Astronomer Royal and

ulous people in tho Eastern States.
His predictions of tidal waves and tor
nadoes are terrifying the superstitious
fishermen OF New England and Nova
Scotia, who have been deferred BY fear
and the opportunities Of their wives
from making their March voyage to the
banks Of New Foundland, where cod
fish abounl at this season. As a con-
sequence, Eastern papers say the bet
ter part Of the fishing season will have
passed before they dare venture out
again. Virgins cyclones are an
nounced to take place between the 9Th
and 18th Instant. and il the pro-
gramme is carried out. the fe-cest
storms that can possibly occur on this
planet will sweep every vessel of the
face Of the ocean, and tidal waves,
compared with which the Ohio and
Mississippi floods are not more than n
drop in the bucket. will inundato all
the low lands bordering oil the Gulf Of
Mexico and the Atlantic Coast. Scien-
ti6c researches havo not yet disclosed
any method by which storms IN be
foreteld months in advance, and there
Is no reason in believing that nature
has revealed tue secrets hitherto col-
eealed from men to the Astronomer
Royal of Canada. aud though there
may be high winds in many places. Il
circumstance not at all unusual in the
middle of March, only overly credulous
or very superstitious people beheve
that Virgins knows any more about
what the weather will be on any pirtic-
ular day, months iu advance. than or

Alexander II. St-ph.n.. ox-Yiee
and late Governor of u orsis, died at
Atlanta on Sunday morning rt $3.50.
The members Of the family were called
in at 3:l5, after which his lr athing
Was almost impsrcep;ible FOR 4 few mo-
ments, and he died without n tremor.
During Sunday, up to 8 O'Clock p. m.
the remains lay in state at the EIecu-
tive mansion. aud were viewed by TO-
600 people. In the afternoon q meet
ing Of citizens was held and addresses
delivered by Senator Colquitt, Judge
Logan, L. Il. Lockley and other promi-
nent citizens. A citizens committee
was appointed to cooperate with q
committee OF tho Legislature and State
House officers, TO conduct the funeral.
The remains lay in state at the Capt.
toll until this afternoon, when they
were buried.
Colonel John Stephens. nephew Of
the Governor. said: II have never
known him to speak SO little of death
as during his present illness. or to
make 80 few arrangements for the
worst that might come. In all his
other attacks he has been especially
careful to impress on mo the minutest
details OF his wishes aud intentions.
In this illness he has not said n single
word about any desires" This confirms
the theory that his illness was exhaus-
ton. and hat that. rather than di.
sense, caused his death.
Stephens made his will some time
ago. he leaves $40, 900 to tho children
Of his late brother, Judge Stephens;
tho rest of his estate, barring q few mi
nor requests, to his nephew, Colonel
John Stephens. What the estate will
foot up depends largely on the sale
Of his new history Of the United
States. Ho made about $50, 900 on the
"War Between the States" His book
is selling well. Above the requests,
tho estate will probably pay SIC, 900.
Hon. Thomas L. Boynton. President
Of the State Senate, WAS sworn in rs
Governor. He ordered an election for
the Gath OF April, to fill the vacancy
caused by Stephens death. The Dem
ocratic Executive Committee IF the
State has been called to meet on Thurs
day at Atlanta. to consider what action
shall be taken.
The remains of Stephens were takon
to Oakland cemetery this afternoon, the
largest funeral procession ever seen in
Georgia following the casket to the
grave. The city is heavily draped with
flags at half-mast,
Governor Boynton issued invitations
to the funeral to all citizens and oil
Gals of the State and county. Memo.
rial services were held in the Capitol
this afternoon, to-day being SGT apart
for memorial services all over the
State.
The Augusta Chronicle says: 1.-The
death Of Stephens ID q calamity to the

irrespective Of party, are profoundly
moved by tho death OF the statesman,
patriot and philarthropist. Though

POSTAL \ onpEn..

The bill modifying the postal money
order system passed both Houses OF
Congress. and there is no eauss to doubt
that it will receive Executive approval.
This is an important bill as it greatly
facilitates the business Of sending
small sums Of money by mail, and re-
duces tho cost Of such orders. 1t au-
thorizes the Issue Of money orders OF
Eve dollars or less, without the CORES
ponding Gdvices, to be on engraved
paper and known as postal notes, pay
able to bearer. The only objection to
this plan is that as the postal notes are
made payable to bearer, they may be
cashed on presentation without the
Identification required by the present
method. though as tho amount is so
small. So or under. the objection is not
a very grave me-. Such notes are not
payable after three months from the
time thoy afo issued. but the holder
can, after that time get their, par value
by applying to the Pos,ofice Depart
ment ct Washington. For issuing each
note n fee Of three cents will be
charged. The bill also Rathoriz s the
issue Of money orders in denominations
OF SlUO or less, but zone for more than
500 can be issued. The following fees
are fixed iormoney orders: For orders
not exceeding SO. s cents; from $40 to

In a few OF tho Statos Of the Union

is wrong. for il has been demonstrated
beyond the probability OF a doubt, that
wherever compulsory education has

We are altogether in favor OF en-
forcing the provision Of tho law which
now graces our statutes. and II it
is found to DO defective, let there be
amendments added thereto until we
have it SO near perfect that the benefits
Of our educational system shall accrue
to every child in Nevada; for We hold
that any parent or guardian is commit

favor the enforcement CT a compulsory
education law, andwe hope to SEQ tho
