The Boston Herald points out the
fact that Prof. Lowell, in reviving his
political essays, as he has in his
latest published volume, subjects
himself to scrutiny as a prophet. 1t
seems that he declared in writing,
in the year 1860, on the eve of the
rebellion, that there was no occasion
to apprehend serious efforts towards
dissension on the part of the South.
The Professor, however, owns up like
little man and does not suppress
his verbal misscue, so to speak.

Japanese Earthquake.

The steamer City of Sydney, which arrived
at San Francisco, from Hong Kong and
Yokohama, brings, through japanese jour
nails, particulars of a volcanic eruption of
Bandai San on the 18th ofJuly. The details
of the catastrophe come in somewhat dis
jointed FORM The Choya Shimbun dispatched
special reporter to the scene. According
to his account the villages around
Bandai San heard strange rumbling sounds
and felt shocks of earthquake from
the 18th. These phenomena continued in
rermittently for two days and nights, but
not being attended by any serious result, no
great disquietude was felt. On the morning
of the 18th, at about o'clock, the smaller
Banda San trembled and roared violently.
Almost Immediately afterwards ashes began
to tall. the sky suddenly grew dark, and the
rumbling sounds continued, accompanied by
a violent earthquake and flare of dazzling
lame The crest of the smaller Banda San
appeared to be lifted bodily upwards and then
to fall again with tremendous noise. Then
followed showers of red mud, mingled with
large stones, spreading havoc around. Above
the mud fell a few inches of ashes. In the five
villages of lwase, Yosan, Wakamiva, Misato
and Hlbara the greater part of the houses
were buried to depth of from
seven to twenty feet. The state of the
bodies recovered is terrible. Some
are literally cut to pieces; Others

few corpses were found suspended in the
branches of trees. Up to the 18th the num-
Der of bodies recovered was 476. 1t is be-
ieved that sixty-one are still entombed. The
wounded number forty zone. Eighty-seyen
houses have been destroyed The inhabitants
of Inawashiro and adjacent villages fed to
Wakatsu and other places when the eruptions
occurred. The report of the local official Of
Wakamatsu says the inhabitants Of
Inawashiro and adjacent districts escaped
with their furniture. The wounded are re-
ceiving treatment at the school house in
Inawashiro. Their condition is shocking.
Some have fractured skulls, others broken
limbs, and the faces of a few are battered so
as to be unacceptable. There are about q
thousand people in need of help.

Grains of Sand.

The manufacture of sand is an inn
portant industry, which has Pittsburg
for its headquarters, although the sand
is not made within the limits of the
city. There is a considerable traffic
in Monongahela sand, which is scoop
ed up from the bed of the river, to be
used for common building purposes;
but the manufacture of sand is quite
another affair, and the product goes
into quite different commodity, which
is glass.
Practically glass Is almost pure
sand, other substances used in its
manufacture for fuxing being con-
sumed while the sand is transformed
to a greater or less degree of trans
parency. The sand used in glass
making is almost pure silica, so nearly
pure that there is less than one per
cent. of iron, magnesia, and alu-
minum, to ninety-nine plus per cent.
of the other. And of this sand, which
is quarried out of the hills and ground
down to varying degrees of tineness,
and washed to varying degrees Of
whiteness, eight hundred tons are
manufactured daily, four hundred tons
being consumed in and about Pitts
burg, and four hundred tons going
into Eastern Ohio, and West Virginia
to Wheeling, Bellaire, Columbus, and
all points within a circuit of one hum
dred and fifty miles of Pittsburg.-

"wHAT WILL YOU TAKE?"

How often this question is asked By
drinking men. Suppose We put it in
a more practical way? Will you take
ten cents worth of poison? viii you
take pain iu the head2 viii you
take a rush of blood to the heart?
VIII you take a stab at the lungs?
Will you take blister on the mucous
membrane Will you take a nauseat.
ing sickness of the stomach? viii you
take redness of eyes or a black eve?
Will you take a tint of red for your
nose2 Will you take a rum. bud for
your face? ? Will you take an offensive
breath? VIII you take a touch of de
lirium tremeusf Suppose we change
the question a little. viii you take
something to drink when you are not
dry? Will you take something to
drink which will not quench your
thirst when you are dry? Will you
take something to drink which will
make you more thirsty than you were
before you drank itp There would be
some sense in asking a man out at the
elbows to take coat, or in asking a
bareheaded man to take hat, or in
asking a shoeless man to take pair
Of boots, or in asking a hungry man
to take something to eat; but it is a
piece of insane absurdity to ask man
to take something to drink that will
not 1uench thirst. Why should he
take it2 viii it make him stronger,
wiser, better? No; thousand times
no! 1t will make him weaker; il will
make him idiotic aud base. What
does he take if he accepts the invita-.
ton? He takes "sn enemy into his
mouth which steals away his brains"
He takes a poison into his stomach
which disturbs digestion. Could he
make telescope Of the glass which
he puts to his mouth, and look into
the future, what would he see? He
would see not far away, a man clothed
in rags, and covered with the blotches
Of drunkenness. He would see man
deserted by bis friends, aud distrusted
by all his kindred. He would see a
wife with a sad face and a broken
heart, and children growing up in ig
norance and vice. He would see the
poor-house, the penitentisry, the gal.
lows, and the graveyard within an
easy approach. Take the pledge and
keep it.

FRIDAY last Hon. w. l.. Scott, who
has recently been called to the posi-.
tion of principal pusher for the Cleve
land administration, made a speech in
the House in defense Of the Mills rev.
enue bill, and it was generally accept.
ed as the Presidents views upon that
measure. As suon there we're two
noticeable features in his remarks. In
the first place, for some unexplained
reason, he saw fit to discuss the legali
ty of the protective tariff. Of course,
if his position were sustained, the pro.
tective feature of the tariff would be
eliminated at once and free trade
would be the only alternative. Mr..
Scott could hardly have chosen more
direct or conclusive method of dem.
opstrating just what the Republicans
claim that the Democratic policy is
essentially and inevitably free trade
policy. Protection he declares to be
unconstitutional, and he would root
out the principle entirely. And yet
the Democrats protests against being
decrihed as a free trade party. Mr..
Scott's definition of the Democratic
policy will have to stand. 1t is free
trade undisguised. Let there be no
more question about that. BrookviHe
