ASTROLOGY.
The Manner in Which 1t Undertakes to d.
vide the Heavens

The Manner in Which 1t Undertakes to d.
vide the Heavens
Astrologers divide the heavens into
twelve equal parts. called houses. This
is done by dividing the verticle circle
or circle passing through the zenith
and the east and west points of the
horizon--into six parts of thirty de
grees each and six corresponding di-
visions lie below the horizon In re-
gard to these ''houses," Lilly says that
'.the exact knowledge of them is so
requisite that he who learns the nature
of the planets without exact judgment
of the houses is like an improVident
man that furnishes himself with va
riety of household stuff. having no place
wherein to bestow them"
To each of these houses is ascrIbed
q particular significance. For instance,
the first house refers to the stature.
health and life of a man. or it stands
in State astrology for the common peo-
pie; the second house refers to wealth
generally; the third to- brethren, to
letters and to messengers. etc, and so
of the other houses. The seventh
house is singularlv Heterogeneous in its
signitcation, as it refers 10 lovers and
husbands. animals strayed. thieves and
things stolen; so that if a Young lady
was to inquire after her absent lover.
or an elderly lady after her favorite cat,
the astrologer would look to ''the
seventh house and planets therein
and aspecting." The next things of
importance in astrology are the zodiac

scribed AS being fiery, choleric, bcStial,
luxurious. Incorporate and violent;
and, beside. it rules gumboils, tooth
ache. badness. places of refuge for

post of observation. The extreme
quickness and mobility of the French
nature. and especially of the Partisan
nature. are never better seen than in
the children OF the Tuilleries. The
wonder is that chijren can play so
freely and happily when they are so
fashionably dressed: the explanation
must be, that as they are always dressed
in that manner when out of doors. they
live in a state of unconsciousness Of
fine clothes. which would be impossible
in the country. The dressing of chill

LITTLE MACS" LOVE.

The First Meeting Between General Nc.
CieIian and the Lady Who Became His
Wife
1t was clear, cold Saturday aftee.
noon in 1860 when the General found
himself for the first time in Baltimore,
Md. He put up At one OF the hotels
and being tired out Immediately retired.
The next morning he went to a church
in the neighborhood. He was ushered
into pew near the altar. The pew had
already one occupant in it. however.
This was handsome Young lady. She
was very handsome A slender, delicate
figure draped in gray silk with awealth
OF blonde hair rolled about her graceful
head. This was all the General could
see at the first glance, but he felt ct
that one moment that the young lady
before him was the only one whom he
could ever love.
Until now the Generals time had
been too much taken up with business
cares to give much thought to love, but
now a new feeling thrilled his heart and
he actually blushed. He knelt down

little attention to it. His mind was
taken up with the fair young devotee by
his side. At last he saw her features.
Her eyes were the color of cloudless
sky, and her mouth of the rosebud
variety, with ripe cherry lips.
The General feasted his eyes on this
picture until the services were over. As
she wa, leaving the pew she glanced at
the General, and then rosy bushes
chased one another rapidly over her
fair countenauce, because she noticed
for the first time the Generals admir-
ing ewes fixed upon her She walked
slowly home toward one of the most
fashionable quarters of the city. totally
unaware that the handsope young fel-
low was follow ng close behind her.
She entered one of the handsomest
houses in the city, leaving the General.
as he afterward expressed it, standing
in the street looking like a ninny. He
learned that the house was owned by
General X. B. Marcy, an old war
worn veteraR. George himself had
had taste of war life during the Mex
lean trouble. and had retired when il
was over with the rank of Captain. He
remembered that one of his school
mates at West Point was named Marcy.
He made inquiries, and learned that
General Marcy was the father of his
old school companion. 1t did not take
him long then to renew his acquaint-
ance W tn General Marcy's son. who
was delighted to meet George again
He introduced the latter to his parents
and also to his sister Ellen. who had
made such deep impression on Georgs
at the church. He began at once to
pay aSsiduous attention to the peerless
little beauty. 1t was plainly seen
after awhile that his love was recipro-
Gated. He asked and obtained Gen.
eral Marcy's permission to wed his
daughter.
They were married in MAY, 1860.
Mrs. Mcclellan confessed that she was
as deeply smitten with the handsome
young soldier on the day of their first
meeting as he was with her. Since
their marriage Mrs. Mcclellan has 90

Two quite important engagements have

Decay of the Obeiisk.

Cleopatra's Needle, the Egyptian
obelisk at Central Park, is found to be
rapidly crumbling away under the in
fiuence of our American climate. For
four thousand years the needle suf-
fered comparatively little change
in the dry. warm air Of Egypt,
but though it has been in America
but five wears there are already
unmistakable signs of its Sc
rious decay. Fragments of stone
are found scattered at the base
of the needle, and flakes an inch or
more in length can readily be picked
of with the fingers. On the eastern
side of the monolith there is fissure
three feet in length and sufficiently
wide to admit the insertion of knife
blade for distance of two or three
inches. A finer creyice extends to .
much greater depth. The vein con-
taiRIng the fissure can be traced to the
south and west sides. Should this large
fragment split of. the obelisk would
undoubtedly fall.-Sctentifc AnerIcds.
