Let any one visit our free schools

Rubber velvet, new material is
made by sprinkliug powdered felt over
heated rubber cloth. The product is

Not less than forty-hve prizes for
scientific work will be awarded by the
Paris Academy of Sciences at the
close OF the year. The last awards in.
clude that of the Leconte prize of
$4,000, which was given to M.
Villemin for his demonstration of the
specific nature and transmiss bility of
tuberculosis.
The influence of sunlight upon
bacteria has been studied by two
German experimenters. Bacilli Of
typhus, cholera vibriones and various
bacteria of puterfaction were among
the subjects of the investigation, and
water containing, 100000 of these
organisms to the Quito inch proved
to be entirely freed from them at the
end of an hours exposure to sun
light.
A singular practice has been found
by DR.. Who in certain villages of Bel
gum. "Vacclnation" is performed
with a needle charged by insertion
into postules found on pigeons in
summer. These postules being sup.
posed by the peasants to be those of
small pox, but being really due to
mosquito bites. The scars can hardly
be distinguished from those OF true
vaccination.
CONVENIENT ADAPTABILlTY.- A
curious power of the vcrmillon spotted

Gage, is that of changing from the
Aquatic TO the terrestrial life, its
breathing organs being more or less
completely modified, and then chang.

being absorbed to mere stubs.
A New BoTANY.-Our later science
has given us new chemistry, new
astronomy. and new geology. Mr.
Lester +. Ward urges the importance
of a new botany. This should not
only concern itself with existing
plants, but should seek to trace the
origin and development Of vegetable
life in past ages. A great number Of
fossil species, extending by successive
stages through long range of geolog
ical time, are now known. Thus far
these have been studied only in the
light of geology, and botanists having
the facilities of great universities at
hand may now hope to obtain from
these ancient forms something like a
complete history Of plant develop
ment. "No grander theme declares
Mr.. Ward, "presen,s itself to the sci
entific worlds"

ought to have done, Mr. Henemann's public
motives and sincere convictions. The two things
are NOT as our publishing friend seems to sup
pose, quite the same. When l read Mr. Besants
lcttcS. never guessed that il would be offensive
to Mr. Hcnemann, or to anybody, but it has be-
come difficult to allow beforehand for the susccpt-
bilities of the English publisher. I have read
Mr.. Bcsant over again and still l cannot see what
there is in IT to irritate anybody except those
who are irritated by every attempt to put author
and publisher on an equal business footing.
The only other contribution to the ever-growing
literature Of this subject comes from Mr. Treves,
publisher who dates from Bedford-st., and is a
| neighbor Of Mcssrs. Macmillan. A statement of
their view from Messrs Macmillan. or from
Messrs. Longmans or from Mr.. Murray. would DO
more interesting and authoritative, but Is
forthcoming. They adhere in silence to their
opinion that all questions touching the production
Of books arc, or ought to he, private matters be-
tween the author and themselves. These ques-
tons once were private; they no longer.
The Society Of Authors with its SO members is
too big fact to be ignored Tho author has, to
certain extent got the of the public. He can
make himself heard, and does. The publishers
opinion is important, but public opinion is more
important STILL and unless the magnates of the
trade think they can afford to neglect one great
source of influence, they really would do we'll
to present to this tribunal their own side of the
case.
Nothing, say the experts, is so difficult TO pre-
diet as the fate OF book, before it is published.
Even after it is published, an unforeseen cause may
turn success into failure Mr.. Watson's insanity,
which everybody is deplorng, is said 20 have
stopped at once the sale of his "Lachrymae
Musarum." The public will have nothing more
to say to a poet out Of his mind. But there
seems ground for hoping that Mr. Watson will
recover his reason and with it, hope, his popu-
larlty. He sprang into fame with suddenness,
yet he had written verse Of unusual quality long
before Tennysons death gave him great sub
iect and a great opportunity G. w. S.
