The German Leaders and Mr.. Sargent.

LONDON, March IL.
A Berlin correspondent of the Times, re-
ferring to the article in the North German
Gazette concerning Mr.. Sargent, says the
article is bolt forged at the foreign Office,
to give Mr.. Sargent coup de grace. Prince
Bicmarck tells the Americans that they have
sent man with whom he refuses to hold di,
plomatic relations. 1t is for the Americans
to judge this treatment of their accredited
envoy. The reference to Mr.. Sargent's jour
nalstic activity is an alluson to the fact that
Mr.. Sargent. in his report to Washington
described the pig meat interdictIon as more
an agrarian than a sanitary measure. The
report was copied by New York newspaper
from statistics issued by the state department
and was assumed to be direct contribution
by Mr.. Sargent. This assumption has col
ored the whole attitude of the executive
toward Mr.. Sargent.

The Origin Of Mosquitoes.

The Indians have very satisfactory
account of the origin of the Montezu.
ma mosquitoes. The legend runs
thus: There were in times Of old,
many moons ago, two huge feather
monsters permitted by the Manitou to
descend from the sky and alight on
the banks of the Senaca river. They
were SO large that they darksned the
sun like cloud as they flew toward
the earth. Standing one on either
bank they guarded the river, and
stretching their long necks into the
canoes of the Indians, as they attempt.
ed to paddle along the stream, gobbled
them up, as the stork king in the ia.
BILE gobbled up the frogs. The de.
struction of life was 50 great that not
an Indian could pass without being
devoured in the attempt. 1t was long
before the monsters could be e1termi-
mated, and then only by the combined
efforts Of all the warriors of tho Csyuga
and Nnondaga nations. The battle
was terrible, but the warriors finally
triumphed, and the mammoth mosqui.
toes were slain and left unburied. For
this neglect the Indians had to pay
dearly. The carcases decomposed,
and the particles, vivifed by t. e
sun, flew off in clouds of mosquitoes,
which have filled the country ever
since.

Not All Rich Men.

All our Presidents have not been
rich men by any means. Gen. Grants
100000 makes him the richest ex.
President since Buchanan Mr..
Hayes has, perhaps, 100000. Meth
er johnson nor Lincoln had over $780,
900. Pierce went in the White House
poor, but had about $4,000 going
out. Fillmore and Taylor were in in
dependent circumstances, but never
rich. TYLER was bankrupt when he
was President, married fortune af-
terwards, and lost all in the war.
Polk was worth $l5O,OOO. Andrew
Jackson had nothing but his 'Hermi-
tage'' Adams was rich. Monroe died
in debt. Jefferson had nothing to
leave behind him, and Washington
was very well of. Van Buren,, who
died worth 100000, was the richest
Pre- sident we have had.

Coming to the Truth.

The HERALD last fall published full
explanation Of the vari-colored sky
following the sunset. For some time
thereafter various theories were
started ascribing the colored sky to
volcanic dust. which produces darkness
and no color at all. but the absence of
color. The more wild the theory the
more notice 1t seemed to cause.
Now and then philosopher in optics
published an opinion corresponding with
that previously given in the HERALD.
The latest of these opinions is that of
correspondent of the French scientific
psper the Cosmos deS Mondes, who ~
CARDS the entire phenomenon as one of
the reflection Of light. He says; "What
we observe is nothing but the rehectoi
of that part of the earth which is
Illuminated shortly before the sun rises
and after it sets. In order to under
stand this we must assume that the
earth is surrounded for q certain distance
by comparatively dense envelope of
gas, beyond which the latter exists in
state of great attenuation. We there
fore have two media of different density
which influence tn 81, rays of light in the
well known way, refracting them up to
certain limiting angle of Incl
dence, beyond which total rehec-
tion takes place. If we i'm.
agine the sun little below the horizon,
a part of the earth directly in front Of
us will reflect the rays of the sun at
very obtuss angle; these rays, meeting
the boundary Of the media at very OBJ
tuse angle, will be totally reflected, AMI
it is these totally reflected rays whisi
we see. This explains the appear
ance of the light in tho shape of cone
whose line is always inclined in the di-
rection OF the ecliptic, and whose base
is toward the sun; it also accounts for
the fact that changes observed in its -
pearance follow reverse order in the
evening from that in the morning. The
reason why the cone is longer in the
evening than in the morning is that the

President would do well to recall con-
versation which that gentleman had
with correspondent OF the New York
Herald Immediately after his defeat for
Governor of Massachusetts, last Fall.
In reply to the question as to whether
he would be candidate for President,
Gen. Butler said that under no circum-
stances would he be an aspirant for that
honor. On the contrary, he intended TO
be the Democratic candidate for Cover.
