Even if You suppose the duration OF
The sun to be prolonged to 10000 900

They will be erased from the srca,
book and will revolve, black cemete-

Will these planets continue TO exist
even then: Yes, probably. in the
case of Jupiter and perhaps Saturn.
No, beyond a doubt for the small
bodies, such as the earth, Venus, Mars,
Mercury and the moon. Already the
moon appears to have preceded us
toward the final desert. Mars is
much further advanced toward the

These little worlds lose their clements

Southern Lynchings.
Charleston Is. C.l News and Courier.

Charleston rs. C.l News and Courier.
The evil is growing worse instead
of better. The mob has been content
to kill its victims heretofore. The three
boys who were killed in Lexington
last Sunday were tortured before being
killed. The manner in which Will
Thompson. the youngest of the three,
who was only IS years of age, was
treated at the place efeXecution ought
to set every sober minded and respon-
sible man in the State, every man who
cares for the future welfare of the
State. to thinking very seriously about
this lynching business. The mere tax
ing of the life of their victim has ceas-
ed to satisfy the Hen who go with a
multitude to commit murder, That
has become a tame proceeding. The
man, or the boy. in their hands must
writhe and bleed and choke in agony
now before the avengers will consent
to his death, and begin the work of
mutilation.
Southern Democratic newspapers
can speak on this subject with impu-
nifty. but if a Republican journal
should chance to condemn a lynching
the editors of the Statesman furiously
fan themselves with their wrath till
their hair curls from the warmth of
their Indignation.

DOWN WITH THE BRIDGE.


ginia Railroad.
DANvILLE, Va, Aug. T.-An awful ac-
cident occurred at the county line trestle.
just east OF Milton, by which two passen-
ger coaches and a sleeper were prccipltated
into the creek, sixty feet below, killing
several people outright and wounding q
number of Others. While going over the
trestle the engineer, Peyton Tunstall, who
says he was running at the rate OF ten
miles an hour, felt the bridge giving away
He threw open the throttle, and the en-
CINE, tender and a box car got safely over,
but the passenger car was too late, and the
span went down under its weight, the sec
ond passenger car and sleeper following.
The cars were shiyered into kindling
wood, and the escape Of any OF the pas
sengers was n miracle. The water in the
creek had risen to the depth of twelve or
more feet, and it is the general belief that
the rise had undermined the foundation OF
the iron piers. causing the trestle to settle.
On the train at the time were about six
teen persons, including the train hands,
but only one of the Observation-Disclosures H.
Morris, of Portsmouth-was killed, none
of the others receiving serious injuries.
The little ID year-old daughter of Mrs.
Giersch, not realizing the danger through
which she had passed, said to the rescuers;
Don't mind me, l am not hurt, but please

demand enough to support prices,
which remain the lowest on record,
and futher stoppages in August have
reduced the weekly output below 1907
600 tons. Copper has declined to 81
cents and lead to 34 cents, with mar
row trade.
Shoe shops are looking in vain for
further orders, and last weeks ship
ments form Boston were 10, 100 cases
or 20 per cent less than those of the
same week last year. At Fall River
alone 700, 900 spindles have stopped
on Saturday and the whole number of
spindles in all southern states is said
to be less than the number now idle
in New England. Even more than
ever lack of orders, want of confidence
in the integrity of orders, troubles the
textile mills, for cancellations multi
ply. The sales of wool at three lar
gest markets were only I,57o,75o
pounds for the latest week against g.
22o, 700 pounds for the same week
last year. Since May 3. the decrease
compared with last year has been IS
per cent.
If only confidence in the future
could be restored the monetary troub-
les might soon be relieved. But at
present, want of cash, it is said, ac-
counts for the retarded movement of
wheat from farms to western markets,
and exports have not met expecta-
tons; of late prices of grain have
somewhat declined. Pork products
are sold more largely for export this
week, but cotton has yielded an
eight, stocks of $4,000 bales here
and 1885, 900 American abroad being
too heavy when many of the mills are
stopping. Coal is dull, and the out
put seems restricted by the difficulty
of getting money for wages. The
movement of animals is less affected,
cattle receipts at Chicago are fairly
maintained, and hog packing for the
latter part of July was nearly as large
as last year, though for the year this
far, March I to Aug. 10, $4,000 hogs
less than last year.
Failures during the week number
1874 in the United States against 100
last year, and IS in Canada against 20
for the same week last year. The
number for the past week shows a de-
crease from the previous week of 30.

REVIEW OF TRADE.
Large ImpOrtations of Gold but Bust
ness Remains Depressed.


Dun & Company's weekly review
of trade for week ending August IL,
says: The long desired meeting o
Congress appears, with the Presidents
Message. which fully reached expecta.
tons, and the arrival of SI3, $50, 900
gold from Europe with $40, 900, 600
more on the way, have not brought
the improvement many anticipated.
Stocks are stronger, but failures con-
tinue and the closing of industrial es-
adjustments, idle hands multiply and
silent shops; and the disorganization
of domestic exchanges is even greater
than a week ago.
Yet there is a hopeful spirit through
the nation that looks to Washington
with some Impotence where the Sen
ate is disposed to rival the mills in
working short time. While states
man consider, merchants and bankers
and unemployed thousands a~nxiously
wait, knowing that the work of each
passing week makes the task of re-
covery more difficult. The CONNER
cha disasters, 5o4 in number, include
such names as r. II. Coleman, the
Iron King" J. II. Walker & Com
pany, of Chicago, in dry goods, and
II. l.. Hotchkiss in stocks. What.
ever relief Congress has power to give
may be less fruitful for good if long |
deferred.
The machinery of exchanges has al
most stopped. When $50 per 81, 900
is paid for New York exchanges at
Chicago. and SIS or $40 at other west
ern cities. settlements between the
east and west, which ordinarily amount
to s., 200. 600, 600 in q year, become
extremely difficult. Even the New
York Central could not get currency
here on checks or the Boston and AL
bany, and was obliged to send TO Bos-
ton for money. According to the re-
ports of July IL to the comptroller
over $4,000, 900 of deposits had been
withdrawn in two months from part of
the national banks. and probably
SI77, ooo, 900 from all. besides un-
known sums from saving. state, and
private banks. and during the Month
since July IL. the withdrawal and
boarding must have been even great
err.
The interest in the iron industry
goes SO far that a third of the iron
production for July and the consump
ton of iron in manufacture diminish
ID 40 per cent from May / to July
even this shrinkage stimulated

Many Mosques Sacked and Burned and
Several Desperate Conflicts Ensue.
BOMBAY, Aug. 1.-THE religious race
rioting was resumed in this city yester-
day, and for several hours the streets were
the scenes of desperate conflicts. The
fighting was OF the most sa~nsuiaary nature,
and a large number of persons were killed
and injured. The day being a Hindoo
holiday, the authorities anticipated a 70
newal of the recent disturbances. and
were, in a measure, prepared to suppress
an outbreak, but the police and the force
of troops in the garrison were inadequate
to cover the whole city, and before quiet
had been restored in one district fresh out
breaks would occur in other parts of the
city. The rage of the mob Was directed
especially against the mosques, several OF
which were sacked and burn ii. All the
