The depression of the stock market in
New York, yesterday, was not uncxpect-
ed b. ~fnanciers. There has been 50 bit
ter a contest waged between the bulls
and bears recently over certain railroad
stocks and securities that it was only a
question of time when the weaker would
go to the wall. The banks that have
failed of late are those that dealt in and
handled railroad paper. So far, no bank
that has done a Legitimate banking bust
ness, has failed. 3.
There were some features of the market
yesterday hat were 50 unnatural as to
show only too plainly that the bears
had been hammering stocks beyond all
conscience. As Secretary Folger says,
the depression is due'to the reckless spec
ulation ola few men. This is proved by
the fact tkat government bonds which had
been selling at l.10 Were hammered down
to 90. The men who were in a tight box
wished to realize money TO straighten
themselves, were the ones who made the
offers. Now everybody knows that with
a surplus in the national treasury Of over
three hundred million dollars. govern
ment bonds would not go down a point
from legitimate causes
1t will be remembered that in 1879
there was a similar depression in Wall
street, but Secretary Sherman called in
500, 900, 900 of government bonds, and
the throwing of so much money on the
market had the effect of Strengthening
Wall street, Secretpry Folger will do a
similar thing. He has, in round numbers,
1910, 000, 900 to dump into Wall street
Half that sum will overcome the
difficulty, and will restore the market.
1t may not put every ipap ON his feet,
because there are many spectators who

WHATEVER slim chance General Grant
had for securing the Republican nomina-
ton for the Presidency has been sent
higher thln Gilieroy's kite through his
WI financial reverses, coupled with the
failures Of spectators yesterday. The
ened if it has not destroyed the brilliant
hopes of james G. Blaine. This will be
all the more true if the financial involve
ment is even greater than is now antici-
pated. There was always more or less
sentimentality involved in the proposed
attempt to nominate Robert lincoln
From present Appearances sentiment IS
as completely out of the question as
Llncoln is out ofthe race. Following the
same logical deductions the dark horse
does not cut the same figure ne did a
week ago. The chances of two men to
receive the Republican nomination have
been wonderfully strengthened By the
financial uncertainty. These two men
are Mr.. Arthur and Mr.. Edmunds. The
former has the very decided advantage
of holding the Presidential chair and with
it, Of course, an assured following. Be
sides this the movement among promi-
nent business men Of his party in New
York will have a great moral effect. 1t
is probably beyond possible contradiction
that Chester \. Arthur to-day occupies
the leading place in the race for the nom
%ination and is not being severely pressed
by any other candidate that has been so
far mentioned. On the side of Democ-
racy there is the same urgent necessity to
concentrate on q man of the most solid
and substantial qualities, one who has
been weighed and not found wanting and
who in himself is a very bulwark of
strength, prudence and business ability.
4 Outside Of Samuel j. Tilden there is
probably no prominent man in the Demo
cratic party who SO pre-eminently com
bines these distinguishing characteristics
as Samuel J. Randall. A crisis that will
bring grist to Mr.. Arthur mill will also
bring it to Mr.. Randall. The Pennsyl-
vania statesman is brought into lofty
prominence by any uncertainty in financial
circles.

affair says that when the debate closed
neither had convinced the other of his
error, 1t could scarcely have been ex-
pected that such would be the result.
Public debates of this kind usually accom-

gagged in them are so deeply engrossed
in the attempt to c%onvice each other that
they are never convinced themselves.

POPULAR SCIENCE.

Those who have spent years In color
ing meerschaums by the conservative,
old fashioned method viii be chagrined
if the statement of a London scientific
paper can be proved. 1t is asserted that
milk or cream applied by means Of a
common hair pencil to the bowl while
it is being smoked and is still warm, will
produce the same magically beautiful CT
fects as years of fond and medltatlye
afear-dinner fumigation.
The representative OF the United
States fish commission on the Pacific says
that the depletion of salmon in the Col
umbia river is so great that now these
fishes do not 90 to more than one or
two of their original spawning places in
sufficient numbers to make IL an easy
thing to get eggs or spawners with
which to begin artificial spawning oper-
atoms on large scale. He urged upon
the government the need of supplement
ing the decrease of this great food sup
ply by instituting the Matching works at
the earliest possible moment.
In voyage from Rio Janeiro to Bor-
deaux, two French savants carefully in

iOuHu III ali lLSldnCtS bHdb over the open
sea, at distance from the vessel, the air
was singularly free from the multitude
of organisms which are found in land
breezes. 1t is now believed by these
and other investigators that none Of the
germs, of an epidemic can cross an ocean
with the wind, but that all low forms of
life contained in it must soon reach the
water and die. Sea voyages are now
sometimes recommended on this special
ground.
The theory of memory is thus ex-
pounded by DR.. r. Wood Brown:
when an impression is received upon
the retina, tympanum, tongue, fingers or
olfactory bulbs it is conveyed by proper
nerve filaments to cel's in the gray mat
ter of the brain. These cells vibrate
from excitation and undergo a change,
say that of molecular arrangement Ii
tins impression is repeated often enough,
the molecules are permanently changed,
and we have memory cells and remember
the impression. But repeated impress
sions are not always necessary 10 pro-
duce a memory cell. A sudden, VIC
lent excitation will cause a permanent
change in cell"

Dear World. looking, down from the highest
of heights that my feet can attain,
sac not the smoke Of your cities, the dust of
your highway and plain;
Over all your duh moors and morasses veil
the blue atmosphere folds,
And you might be made wholly Of mountains
for aught that my vision beholds.
Dear World, look down, and am grateful
that so we all sometimes may stand
Above our own everyday level, and know
that our nature is grand
In its possible glory Of climbing; in the hill
tops that beclzon and bend
So close over every mortal he scarcely can
choose but ascend.
Though here, OBJ, my World we miss something
the sweet multitudinous sound
OF leaves in the forest a-fiutter, OF rivulet
lisping around,
The smell of wild pastures in blossom, of
fresh earth upturned by the plow-
The uplands and all the green hill-sides lead
the way to the mountains brow
One world; there is no separation; the same
earth above and below;
Up here is the rivers cloud-cradle; down there
is its fullness and flow;
Myvoice joins the voice of your millions who
upward in WEAKNESS grope,
And the hills bear the burden to heaven-hu-
manity's anguish and hope
Dear World, lying quiet and lovely in SHIN
mer of gossamer haze,
Beneath the soft films of your mantle | can
feel your heart beat as gaze;
/ know you by what you aspire TO, by the
look that on no face can be
Save in moments of high conservation; you
are showing your true self to me.
Dear World, | behold but your largeness;
forget that aught petty or mean
Ever marred the vast sphere of your beauty,
over which as lover lean;
And not by our flaws will God judge us; His
love keeps our noblest in sight;
Dear World, our low life sinks behind Us; we
look up to His infinite height
