In these complicated investigations the
electric thermometer invented by Becque-

tions were made Of the temperature oil the
air at the height OF 3S3 feet and 69s feet,
and OF the soil OF the depths Of 2 inches, 4
inches, s inches, IL inches and "a inches.
They were made under sod and bare
ground. On November 90 dry frost be-
gan, which lasted without interruption
until December 8. At this date the air
had a temperature Of 70 Fahrenheit, and q
heavy fall OF snow began that covered the
ground to the depth oil ten inches. From
the 9Th to the 19ih OF December the cold
steadily moderated, until on the morn.
! ing Of The l0!h and Goth II was above 32'
| v. riable cold weather followed, and the
snow sank to less than eight inches. OBJ:
servations showed that both before and
after the snow fell the temperature OF the
soil, where it was covered with SOC, remaio-
ed above the freezing point even on the
coolest day. On November 20, at THE
depth Of two inches, the temperature wa

continuously until December 10, when Il

were quite different in soil not coy

What Is a bulldog?

the entrance OF matter into liberty. 1t is a
mad mass with the bounds Of tiger, the
stealthiness Of the mouse, the obstinacy Of

OF explosives for the destruction of bulld-

said he was confident the evidence which
would be offered against the prisoners
would convince the jury of their guilt.

SPAIN.

LONDON, Aug. THE Times correspond
ent at Madrid says: The uprising at the
military headquarters ended in an uncon-
sequential manner, very little harm being
done by the insurgents doing a slight
damage to the railroad and the robbery of
reglmental and municipal monies. 1t is
doubtful whether the movement was ever
serious. In some quarters the outbreak is
thought to be only part of the pro-
gramme of a gigantic stock jobbing oper-
alton induced by certain CLIQUE, which
for long time have been making extra
ordinary efforts to destroy the improving
credit of Spain.
LONDON, Aug. IA special from Paris
says that at dinner in that city fort
night ago, Ruizziorilla, whose name is
mentioned in the proclamation of the in
surgents at Badajose for president of the
republic, made speech ir which he de-
clared in an excited manner that he would
not return to Spain until the republic had
been reinstated there.
MADRID, Aug. Gen. Blanco, com.
mander of the forces at Estremadura, will
make strict inquiry into the causes of the
rising at Badaioz. The papers severely
blame the officials of Badajoz for allowing
the insurgents to surprise them. The in
surgents arrested the prefect-general COM
mandlng the troops and four officers in
their beds on Sunday morning. The edi-
tor of the Republican newspaper was one
of the leaders of the insurgents.
LISBON, Aug. THE authorities at
Elvas have disarmed nine hundred insur-
gents and some civilian fugitives from
Badajoz. They will be interned in forti-

object of the rising was to cover up a rob-
bbery of public money, and that def
cheney of e9,600 has been discovered in the
