The ATOMIC Theory.
DIR. slavonskPs Mathematical Proof OF tho
Immortality OF AInn

DR.. Ivan Slavonski, tho eminent Rus
sian mathematician, who died In St Pe-
tersburg in December, 1887, left, among
other curious and valuable papers, ono en-
titled "Tbo Atomic Theory; n Mathemat-
ical Proof Of the Immortality Of Man"
Tho learned doctor starts out by taking
the position that the whole universe is
made up of atoms, and that these atoms
arc not "innumerable." but 1t can be
ehown that their number is limited. He
further declares that the words ",nfinite"
and "innumerable' are only used to cover
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS it is impossible for our
minds to form n proper conception of a
vast number of units. After making tho
above and other broad statements he sets
himself to the task of proving that the
atoms of the universe are constantly I'M
dergoing changes and that the time will
como when all possible changes, combina-
tions and permutations will have been ex-
haustcd. Spencer, Helmholz, Thompson
and many other distinguished men, living
and dead, believe and believed this queer
doctrine. Thompson says that when these
changes have been exhausted the universe
will DO at rest. When that day comes, tho
sun will cease to shine, the planets will
stop revolving on their axes, and all the
vast systems of worlds will hang perfectly
dead and lifeless. But no; DIR. Slavonski
does not propose to have q grand finale
wind up ut that stage of the game.
He declares that when these atomic per-
mutations have been exhausted, nature
will return upon its tracks; In other words,
that when the pendulum has swung to It's
utmost limit it must return again. II oil
the positions Of tho atoms of the universe
must again repeat themselves, Slavonski
argues that there must come time when
all nature will aCaiu be in tho truck now
occupied. The earth will again undergo
its geographical periods, and man will
again appear, each individual being pre-
ciscly the same individual he is now. He
will be born Of the same parents, DO reared
under the same circumstances that he now
lives, and with those with whom he now
lives and will finally die as he will die in
few years from now. After another I'M
told age of cyclic changes he will Give
again" just as in his former lives. This
is Immortality Louis Republic.

JEfFeRsoN's HARD LUCK STORY.

"have you any near and dear relativesp"
"a few," answered Daley dreamily as
he accepted n cigar which Mr.. Jefferson

easy it could be put out with couple Of

Then my esteemed relative, who, suspect,

sentenced to Imprisonment for life. He

simple enough. He was good to the poor

After his escape Tiburzi altered his
method of gaining n living. He caused it

an annual contribution he would not in

DRY GOODS.

New York July 31.-There has been no
change of moment in the general condi-
ZION of the dry goods market, whether in
the cotton, woollen or other departments
The demand at first hands continued in
different on the spot and the progress
made by statesmen on the road or through
orders from customers direct has been Of
quite moderate character in the aggre-
eate. In some quarters the recorder BUSH
ness IN fall lines of cotton fabrics is re-.
norted as showing some signs of improve.
nent but such instances are few, and
tbe general run of business fails to be-
token as yet any spirited distribution Of
supplies from second hands. In some
quarters agents are reporting, even I'M
der prevailing duh trade. a contraction
of supplies in hrst hands, and It is high
~ probable that the curtailment In pro-
ductiou Will be persevered In longer than
nj frst contemplated; such instances may
before long be quite common.
