Astroiogy For October.
Zadkiel, the London astrolo'

ger, says:
October was placed by the Ro-
mans under the protection of
Mars. whose sign Scorpio the
sun enters on the 23d day. On
the 18th the Roman army was
assembled and the Armilustriam
festival was held. Mars enters
! Scorpio on the 10th of this month
this year, and proceeds to pour
out the walls of his wrath on Mo-
rocco. His presence in the most
martial of all the twelve signs of
the zodiac is favorable to the
navy of old England, whose flag
floats supreme over the seas of
the world, and sets at defiance
her insidious enemies even in the
far East.
There is a pretty conjunction
of Venus with Jupiter to be seen
between 4 and 5 o'clock in the
morning on the Goth inst, their
ecliptic conjunction taking place
at ITO a. m. This is favorable
to the well-being of persons who
were born about September 20,
and when the moon held the goth
degree of the sign Virgo. There
lis a curious coincidence in the
great planets Jupiter and Saturn
forming their mutual sextile as
pect just as they change their
signs on the 9th inst. This will
bring strange sights in the
heavens" commotion in the at
mosphere; a change for the bet
ter for Austria, China and Japan,
and a change for the worse for
Spain very soon.
The car is plagued by Saturn,
and finds his schemes thwarted
and his armies confronted with
great difficulties if not with de-
feat. His brother emperor, the
ruler of Germany, likewise meets
with i'll success and vexation,
and may lose a near relation.
This month is favorable on the
whole for Great Britain, notwith-
standing some troubles, and at
the latter part railways, tram
ways and the postoffice will pros
per, and will, we trust, extend
their favors to the people. In
the east of Europe destructive
earthquake is threatened. The
18th, Goth and 23d are favorable
birthdays. The 18th and 9th
are troublesome, and warn all
concerned to prepare for squalls,
especially those who had the
moon in the end of Scorpio at
birth.

is as follows:
1. Doubtful; be careful.
