| MANY NATIONAL PERPLEXITIES
Several nations will be badly pre-
picked by the planetary doings in March.
At the moment of new moon the lumin-
| aries are in the midheaven at London,
and in aspect with Venus, so that March
will not be month of drought this year;
in fact, rain will be somewhat plentiful;
albeit, Jupiter in the lower meridian
,favors a fine season. Mars still being
in the sign Gemini, adds to the political
excitement in the United States, and,
too likely, to taxation also. Indeed, the
quartile aspect of the red planet with
the sun at the vernal ingress, marks the
danger of war in Europe, Africa and
America. We fain would hope that the
nineteenth century will close peace
fully, but we must minimize the danger
of the martial spirit dominating the
minds of men. Australia Will soon have
to look to her defenses and increase tax
Mars. and he and his country will suffer
aMrs. and he and his country will suffer
accordingly.
Jupiter retrograding in the sign of
Virgo brings some benefit to Paris, not
withstanding the vociferous military
parity in France. People who were
born on or about the Gath of August. or
when the moon held the first degrees of
Virgo will benefit by the position of the
great benefc planet either in health or
finances. on the other hand. the sta

SPAIN'S OCTOBER TROUBLES.
october win prove miserable montn
Tor poor spain. There Is pretty CON
junction OF Venus with Jupiter to De
seen on the morning of the 20th instant
heir ecliptic conjunction taking place:
Iris IS favorable to the well being OF
persons who were born about the 2oth ot
september, and when the moon held the
tWenty-ninth degree of the sign virgo.
There Is a curious coincidence in the
great planets, Jupiter and Saturn FORM
ing their mutual sextile aspect just as
they change their signs on the 18th
instant.
There will be more trouble for Spain
in November. Saturn enters Sagitta-
rus ere the sun reaches the sign, and
proceeds to scourge unhappy Spain and
TO trouble Hungary. Uranus is also on
the threshold of the ruling sign of Spain,
SO that trouble will fall on that country
by battalions. Holders of Spanish bonds
should take the warning. for toward the
end of this month Mars will add TO the
furies and cause bloodshed. in addition
to other misfortunes. Accidents in
hunting will be very numerous and seri-
Gus this month; let all hunting men
whose birthday anniversary falls be-
tween the goth and 26th of this month
display unusual caution in every way.
The closing month of the year will he
a still more terrible one for Spain, 9c-
cording to the astrologer. Spain now
draws the attention of the world. for the
three malefic planets. Mars, Saturn ana
Uranus, are ruling her destinies by their
presence in her ruling sign Sagittarus.
Her proud people are the sport of the
fates, and her ancient power has its lus-
ter sadly dimmed by loss of territory
and prestige. Sic transit gloria mundi.
Spain, however. is not the only Euro
pean power under a cloud, for the stars
in their courses are fighting against
Russia, Turkey and Austria-Hungary.
