bodies on the surface of the earth send

when they rsdiate more heat than they
receive their temperature falls below that

exception of lower temperature. When
the temperature of plants falls below

condensed upon them In the solid

Hoar frost is therefore not frozen dew,
but the moisture of the air is deposited
In solid form without having passed

A BIackthorn Fight In Tipperary,

Details OF a remarkable fight which
occurred near Roscrea, county Upper
airy, on the 10th ult., have only now
transpired. Two farmers named
Cody and Farrell laid claim to a
small piece of land which each
thought should he included in his
holding. The question had been ar
gued on many occasions. The local
national league, the parish priest and
mutual friends had all tried to settle
the question in vain. Both parties
were averse to mourning the cost of a
lawsuit, and eventually it was agreed
that the right of the piece Of land should
be settled by a regular battle between
the contending parties and their adher-
ents. On the 10Th ult. the two factions,
numbering about thirty stalwart Tip
perary men on each side, met on the
disputed ground and joined in com.
bat with blackthorns. Blood
flowed freely, but fortune had moi
finally declared for either side when 9
body of police came on the scene and
charged the rioters, dispensing both
parties Unfortunately. Prosecu.
tons are now pending for the breach
Of the peace, but the original question
