WONDERS oE MARS.
Communication From Flammarion, the
Eminent Astronomer

LONDON, Sept 16. - The European
editor of The New York Herald pub
fishes the following from Camille Flaln-
marion. the eminent astronomer:
To the Editor of The Herald
have just received some new observa-
tions concerning the planet Mars, made
this summer at some of the principal OBJ
servatolie of our own planet They teach
us some very strange things, still. 1t
seems that at certain seasons of the year
the oceans of the planet Mars are divides
into two parts, Just as a gigantic bridge
or bank of sand had been thrown. across
them from one shore to the other. For
instance there is among other seas in the
planet Mars one situated at the nine
teenth degree of longitude east of meri-
dian zero, and twenty-five degree of longi-
tude on the Austral tropic. On account
OF its isolation as well as superficial area
this sea resembles our Black sea. Hitherto
this sen has always been observed as uni
form and nearly circular but last June
M Schia oaielli, of Milan observatory, dis
covered that this sea was cut in two bya
yellow band which divided it into UNEQUAL
parts.
A lake somewhat similar to our lake
TSchad was also noticed t have been
divided into two parts. At the same time
IN excellent and very minute observer in
England discovered that five immense
canals were also divided into two parts by
two straight lines absolutely parallel to
each other, in the same manner that 4 GER
tain number of enigmatic canals were no.
tccd to have been divided some years ago.
What can these seas, lakes aud canals
that divide themselves up in this manner
be? AS inhabitants Of this earth we have
only our observatories and our terrestrial
ideas in our mind. These are insufficient
to divine what takes place in another
world, but such discoveries are none the
less worthy of all our attention. When
will Qlll de Geant, ] metre 5 centmetres,

Mr. Poe says that some time last win

before the faculty, signed by nearly all
Of the ninety-nine students. The mat
ter had been continuously agitated
since A number of students had left
the school, ana others had refused to
enter b, cause of the presence OF the
two colored men. That was the chief
consideration influencing the action of

New YORK, Sept. 6.-The following
was received from Washington Sunday
night:
The extraordinary demand for money
continues in New York and elsewhere,
Notwithstanding various devices of the
secretary of the treasury to put more
into circulation, but it is believed the
market will be relieved Monday. To the
calls for relief the trl asury department
has arranged to respond again by antici-
rating the interest on currency SKIES
outstanding, which, it IS estimated, VIII
put about $t,0O0,000 more into active
circulation by Monday next. If this i
not sufficient, other means will he re-
sorted to. While the situation is grave
in it's possibilities. there is no doubt that
Il great deal OF the danger is mggnitird
for speculative purposes. None of the
financial experts OF the government can
see any reason for panic, but knowing
the sensitive nature Of all transactions
where money Is concerned and how
easily confidence is lost and how hard
it is to restore it, nothing has been left
or will be left undone TO make the busi-
ness mind easy.
AS everybody well understands, the
banks in the east have, rs whole, less
than their legal amount of surplus on
hand ut this time of year on account of
the heavy drain of money to move croDs
south aud west The calls for money
for this purpose have been unusually
large ON account of increased pnces.

lower rate of duties under the old law
wherever they exist. This has also taken
millions from active circulation in the
cast and poured them into the treasury
for customs dues. The treasury has
tried to turn some of its money back
again by making bond calls and antici-
rating interest. and up to a few days
ago had succeeded in meeting every re-
Guigement of the situation.
Without any warning the news was
received that the senate had declared
that the new tariff bill should go into
effect Oct. |. and the goods in bond
would have to pay duty at the new
rates after that date unless withdrawn
before. The bill could hardly become Il
