UTAsthjia cn be cured. See Hurat'i dTertu I meur Some Ideas About the San EtsktbodV knows In a general way What the sun is like, how it seems to rise and set daily, and how it is the source of light and heat; but as perhaps not many hare heard of the new facts lately dis closed concerning it we shall offer a few familiar explanation on the subject. In the first place, let us pave the way by mentioning that the size or volume of the sun is 1,260,000 times greater than our earth. It is scarcely possible to form a correct notion of this extraordinary mag nitude; for it baffles all ordinary conccp- . tions. We may be assisted by the follow ing fact: The mean distance ol the moon from the earth is 237,600 miles, at which distance is its orbit all round. Now, so vast is the size of the sun that it is twice as great as the moon's orbit. In other words, if we conceive the earth placed in the center of the sun, with the moon re volving round it, that orbit would still be at a depth within the sun of more than 187,000 miles from its surface. The distance of the sun from the earth is calculated to be 91,000,000 of miles, and across this space light travels in eight and a half minutes, or at the rate of 180,000 miles in a second of time. At the same . rate of speed, it is calculated that light from the remotest and faintest stirs in our stellar system does not reach the earth in less than 3,500 years. The rays of light "which left some of them in the era ot Closes and the patriarchs are only now becoming visible. Although 91,000,000 of miles distant, the sun, by the use of powerful telescopes, can be brought to an apparent distance of a hundred and eighty thousand miles. Nearer the pres ent appliances of science cannot bring it. But who can tell what yet may be done in the telescopic art? Future astronomers may be able to bring the apparent dis tance very much less than a hundred and eighty thousand miles. Even at that dis tance, however, tilings can be distin guished by various instruments of mod ern invention, which will surprise those who do not keep in mind the prodigious dimensions and luminous character of the object looked at. To us the sun appears a large brilliant ball, sailing grandly across the heavens. To the inhabitants of the sun if there were such the earth would look little bigger than a pea a thing barely noticeable. Although the sun is twelve hundred thousand times greater than the earth, its weight is not in the same proportion. It is only three hundred thousand times heavier than the earth ; so that, bulk lor bulk, it is only one-quarter as dense. This want of density, however, is com pensated for by its vast size, so that its mass is sufficient to attract the various planets, and keep them whirling round it at their respective distances. The com paratively large bulk furnishes the ad vantage of radiating from a spacious sur face the qualities of light and heat all .Circumstances as regards ends to be served being of the finest possible adjust ment. The sun and its attendant planets, with their sub-planets or moons, consti tute together a machine of such marvel ous perfection and regularity that, after numberless ages, the process of move ment, according to set laws, has under . gone no appreciable derangement ' Our wonder at this stupendous accu racy is lost in the knowledge that, after all, the sun, with its planetary system, is a mere unit in creation. Scientifically speaking, the sun is a star. It is just one of the many stars in the firmament. Every one of the myriads of stars visible to the eye is a sun rotating in its own assigned portion of space, with, in all probability, planetary bodies wheeling around it. Even that does not complete the wonder. Translated to the most dis tant of these suns, we should still see suns at immeasurable distances; and so on we might go, traveling through an eternity of suns and attendant worlds the journey ' endless, on and on forever. Can any one think of this prolific magnificence with out lifting up his heart in awe and admi ration of the Almighty creator and sus tainer Let us, however, come down to particulars about the sun in her own sys t3m. The common notion is, that it is a pure, shining body, always presenting to us the same surface. Investigations do not sus tain the belief as to uniformity of ap pearance. It is ascertained to turn on its axis like our own earth, with this differ ence, that instead of four-and twenty hours its complete rotation requires aDout nve-ana-twenty days. Acquainted with this fact, we are led to understand some of the more remarkable phenomena 01 me sun. inese consist of certain dark spots of different dimensions, and very irregular outlines, which are discov ered on its surface. The spot. seemingly shift their relative position. The shitting is oiiy apparent, Deing partly due to the rotation, which exhibits the surface at different points of view. The nature of these spots has been a matter of much speculation, and even now the question regarding them is not quite settled. As suming that the sun is substantially a dark body, surrounded with a shining suriace, a region 01 iignt-ana-neat giving vapor radiating earthward and sunward, called the photosphere, it was thought by Dr. Wilson, of Glasgow, in 1761), that the ' dark spots were cavities or openings in this luminous surface through which the body of the sun was visible. Recent in quiries tend to confirm this opinion. Usually, as is observed, the dark spots are environed by bright streaks of wild, .fantastic appearance, spoken ot aafaculu; the Latin word for torches. There is, however, great difficulty in coming to any distinct idea of the spots, for, independ ently of the apparent shifting by rotation, they sometimes assume the most extraor dinary changes in a single day, or from hour to hour. Their size is tremendous. A width of 50,000 miles across is not un common a size more than sufficient to swallow up a body several times the size of the habitable globe. That the sun has not a perfectly smooth surface is now thoroughly known by ob servations made during solar eclipses. When the body of the moon covers the disc of the luminary it is seen that there are huge protuberances of a red color projecting like mountain masses beyond the edges of the photosphere. It is only when the dazzling light of the photo sphere is hid that these become visible. On such occasions a photograph is taken by a suitable apparatus, ana a picture is secured of the projections, along with the luminous corona or glory surrounding the darkened body. Besides what seem to be comparatively permanent projec tions from the sun's disc, there are ob served to be streams of flame shooting wildly out to a height of thousands of miles. These flames, which are red in ap pearance, are believed 10 consist of incan descent gases, bursting from the body of "thesun like the torrents of fiery vapor from a volcano. The height reached by the flames is reckoned to be at times at least 72,000 miles above the photosphere. Flames so lofty and so magnificent in di mensions fill one with astonishment. We call them flames for want of any other term to express their appearance. Prop erly speaking, they are demonstrations of a hot gas in which there is no actual burning. Fire can take place only where there is oxygen or. some other gas to sup port combustion, and in this case there is no evidence of there being any gas but hydrogen. The flame-like aspect does not, therefore, comprehend the principle of destruction. It has been ascertained that the photo sphere is always in a state of violent agi tation. It appears as a stormy ocean of luminous matter, rolling at a height above the body of the sun, and to it may be im puted the" light and heat which are radi ated to the earth and other planets. The composition of the photosphere and of the other envelopes of the sun has ben the subject of prolonged investigation by means of that wonderful instrument oi modern invention, the spectroscope. Strange as it may seem, this Instrument, when turned toward a luminous body like the sun, no matter how distant, can tell with certainty that such and such sub stances enter into its composition, and j also whether they are in a gaseous state, or solid, or quid. By this means the presence in the sun of the vapors of sodium, magnesium, barium and iron has been ascertained. Hydrogen is also a prominent ingredient m the sun's atmos .phere, if we may so call it. Immediately outside the photosphere, or bright sur face, there is a layer of red-hot hydrogen, called the chromosphere, rising here and there into those protuberances we spoke of, and occasionally bursting out in jets of flame tens of thousands of miles high. Below this we have the photosphere, a region containing metallic vapors, along, probably, with numerous deposited cloud particles of these vapors, which form, as it were, small centers of radiation. To supply the waste of heat caused by this radiation, the surface of the photosphere is kept in constant agitation by convection-currents, the cooled portions sinking down and warmer matter being heaved up. It is believed that these upheavals cause the facuhe, and that the spots are produced by a down-rush of comparative ly cold matter from the chromosphere into hollows of the photosphere. Thcie is a far grander problem to be solved. How are we to account scientifi cally for the origin, the formation of the sun, and its planetary attendants? What explanation may be given on these points would apply to all the suns in the uni verse. Theologically, the world was made out of nothing, which is quite true; the word nothing, by an allowable inter pretation, signifying nothing solid or tangible. The elements of creation are understood to have been masses of gase ous matter scattered like luminous, filmy clouds in the realms of space, which modern science designates as nebula; from nebula, the Latin for a cloud. Some writers have fancifully spoken of the nebula; as star dust, as being the rudi incutary material from which stars Lave been formed. From this nebulous or dust-like condition the particles are sup posed to be aggregated through a con currence of forces, and by a beries of pro gressive developinents the primordial chaos is concentrated into a solid sphere, in other words, the whole of material nature land, water, rocks, metals, vege tables, an hi.nl substances, and even the air we breathe may be sai. to consist of the nebulous gases in different combina tions and degrees of condensation, and into the same primary condition they may be chemically resolved. What was the extent of the nebulae at the beginning of created existence no one can tell. They may have tilled the whole universe. All we know is that they still abundantly exist. Sir John ilerschel made a cata logue of upward of 5,000 discoverable by tLj telescope. We cannot in this little sketch describe the progressive stages which this last named astronomer assigns to the nebular aggregation, as seen in the heavens. La Place, in his great work, the " Mecanique Celeste," traces the condensation to the force of gravity. According to his view, a mass of nebulous matter formed the nucleus ef the sun, which, being endued with a rotating motion, threw off masses in the shape of rings; then these rings, breaking and contracting in length, formed planets at variuble distances. Saturn's rings are supposed to furnish an example ot what all planets originally were. The sun therefore stands in the rela'.ion of parent to the planetary bodies which, in obedience to well-known laws, circulate about him. Commonly, we speak of eight planets, of which the earth is one; but there are not fewer than a hundred and thirty-four to which names have been given, besides an incalculable number too small to be visible, but some of which, coming within the earth's at traction, fall as meteors. To all these we may add the sub-planets, which are held to have been thrown off from their prima ries as these were from the sun. At all events, it is as near certitude as possible that the earth we inhabit is a morsel of the sun fashioned from glowing materials into that world which is so well adapted to vegetable and animal life. In its in ternal heat and volcanoes it still bears traces of its condition when it parted company with the sun. Clothed in all its beauty it might be pardonable to de fine it as only a cooling cinder from which the heat of its solar parentage has not altogether departed. One thing specially remains to complete the wondrous story of inanimate creation. We refer to the heat residing in the sun. How was it produced? This heat, in which our globe participates, had its origin in tjprce. Particles of matter rush ing into violent Collision produce heat. A concentration of nebula; on a great scale gave the sun that amount of heat which is still conserved for the benefit of the dependent planetary bodies. In what ever way heat is produced, it is ultimately to the sun that it is due. Every bit of coal was once a vegetable substance grown by the sun's heat, and this store of heat we disengage by fire to give us warmth as well as to move machinery. The heat from an ordinary fire, therefore, is direct ly traceable to those tremendous forces which brought together the materials of the sun. But will not the conserved heat of this grand luminary be in process of time expended ? Whether the sun's heat will ever die out is a point shrouded from finite intelligence. As yet there is no appearance of decay in the sun's be neficent energv, and we may be perfectly at our ease on the subject." W. C" in Hearth and Home. The C4vil Blunts Bill. The all-night session of the Senate Jtnday, aud the strict party vote on Satur day iuorninsr, by which the Civil liiirhts bill passed, show that with all the talk of dead issues and the end of absurd preju- euees mere is yei wrK ior me Itepublican party to perform. The hitler fight made by the Democracy in opposition to this measure recalled their efforts of a similar character a few years ago, and when the Republicans, so lately divided over a question of finance, came Bolidly into line and once more exhibited their intelligence, magnaniinny anu icariess aisregaw ot angry protests and weak ridicule by voting for the bill, the sight h nt new hope and spirit to every member of the party throughout the country. Democratic and independent papers are wont to express surprise at the persistency with which the colored people of the South vote the Republican ticket. There should be no wonder at it. If they should do otherwise they would furnish indubita ble evidence that the charges of the Dem ocratic party aeainst them were true. After all these years of warfare, a war waged on the side of Republicans to dis enthrall, enfranchise and raise them up to the full stature of manhood, and on the side of the Democracy to defeat these objects, the colored man would be an imbecile as well as an ingrate shoutd he be anything but the straie-htest partisan or vote am thing except the purest Repub lican ticket. That they cannot be drawn away from the ranks, as has been so often attempted, only proves that the confidence of the party in the intelligence of the race was not misplaced. We see, by the way, and the fact is not without significance, that Mr. Schurz neither voted for the bill nor was he paired with any of the opposition upon it. The question naturally arises Where was Schurz ? Where was this champion and friend of Mr. Sumner, who an- nounceu oniy a lew days ago that he as sumed the fallen mantle of the late Massa chusetts Senator, and proposed to fight out the battles which that eminent states man had so long prosecuted? " Calls he this a backing of his friends ?" There was .a Ion debate on the bill. All through Friday and Saturday night the mows ien iflicK. and fast upon this favor ite measure of the late Massachusetts Senator, but his protested friend and eulogist was not there. The words in its favor tell from the lips of those who had sometimes differed with Mr. Sumner, and who, through the last few years of his life, had been oompelled to tread a path apart from him; but they were strong, man ly, potent words, nevertheless, and, supple mented by votes, carried the measure through the Senate. Schurz was not needed, it is true, but where was he? The contest over this bill did much to unite the Republican party in Congress, ana much to umte it in the country. e hope it will be followed by earnest and patriotic eflorts everywhere to harmonize differences of opinion and to place be- lore ine people such men and measures as can command the unqualified support of the thousands who would regard the disintegration of the party with un feigned sorrow, and its defeat as a public calamity.

Th3 method employed by professional workers in hair is as follows :- Wet the hair to be curled, wrap it smoothly around a cylin drical stick or tubo of proper size, tie ft in place, then put it in water and loil it two or three hours, remove it from the boiler, wrap it carefully in newspaper and bake it in a moderate oven for an hour. Thus treated, it will stay in curl permanently. It is admitted on all hands that the quicker the milk is withdrawn from the cow's udder the better are the results in every respect. It is obvious that milking can be done epuickerwith both hands than with one. Time is saved to the milker, while the cow is not so liable to become restless. The sooner milk is strained and aired after it is drawn the less is the lia bility of its becoming sour. It is gener ally conceded that slow and protracted milking serves to dry up a cow and to make her hard to milk. How to Raise Blackberries. If you have access to only a few bushes dig up the roots with care without mutilating the bark, lay them on a block, cut them in pieces about three inches long with an ax or hatchet; prepare the ground as for corn or potatoes and plant one piece of root in the furrow or drill about four or five feet apart, covering each one with about one inch ef rich and mellow soil; step on it with one foot so as to press the moist dirt firmly about the piece planted, and then draw on more mellow earth to the depth of one or two inches. This can be done at the North at anytime from the 1st of April until the middle of June. Every piece of root will send up from one to three canes before autumn. , If the soil is rich and mellow the bushes will yield some fruit the next season, provided the ground is kept free and clean from grass and weeds, or the surface mulched to keep down all vegetation. Try a short row. The roots of any variety of black berries, if planted in this manner, will soon form large and productive bushes. N. Y. Herald. Useful Hints. A lady writing to the Country Gentleman thus recapitulates some ef the valuable suggestions she has had the good sense to learn from her servant girls. She says: "The other day Mary was iron ing and asked for a piece of sand-paper to rub her irons on. I was astonished that I had never thought of it before; it is so nice, removes every bit of starch or anything else, and makes them so smooth. One girl taught me that old corsets make the best stove-cloths. Just one-half at a time is a convenient size. They are ready made and much better, when unfolded, to take hold of anything with than a made holder, and much easier to wash. Just throw them in with the brown towels, as many as you happen to get soiled during the week, and they come out clean and ready to use again. Another girl pours hot water on the blades only of steel knives and they wipe easily and do not need drying. Another one told me the best way to keep hams and dried beef was to pack in dry salt. We have tried it sev eral years with perfect success. An old salt barrel is convenient. Set it in some cool, dry place; put quite a thick layer of salt in the bottom; then pack in the hams, using the pieces of dried beef, if you have any, for chinking; cover with salt; then hams and salt again till the barrel is full. There is not the least danger from insects, if the hams are smoked and the beef dried and put away early before the flics come around ; and they are much nicer to han dle than when put in ashes or oats, or anything of that kind." About Beehives. A tai.l hive, when extremes are avoid ed, usually gives the bett results. The de mand for box honey has increased over tiiat for swarms. We want hives to ac commodate us in that respect. The tall hive that was best for swarms gave but little. A hive with a large top will take on more boxes than the tall small -one, and the bees will often fill them asejuick ly as the smaller number. This encour aged us to try a still larirer surface for boxes. This was done by placing them at the side ef the combs. The depth of our boxes is 5) inches; one placed on the othermade eleven inches, just the height ot our frames. I wo courses can be set on the side of the comb, and enough can be put on both skies when the length of ours to hold eighty pounds, besides those on the top. Some bee-keepers put several tiers of boxes on smaller hives. But experience slrnws us that those farthest from the body of the hive are worked in very slow ly. There is a great gain in having every box as near as possible to the main hive. I cannot think of another shape that will admit so much room for boxes in close connection with the hive. If the long hive stood on the end, making it a tall hive, the same number of boxes might be used, but they would have to be piled on each other to a greater depth, making it more trouble to take off boxes from the lower ones when only those were full. The main combs of the hive would often become heavy and break loose and fall to thelottom. If a piece to support them were put across, it would divide the comb so that the queen would keep the brood in the lower part. The space above would be filled with honey and the boxes ou the top would be about the same as if they were on a tier or two of boxes below them. M. Quinby. General Howard. There have been for a long time stories in circulation prejudicial to Gen. How ard, late of the Freedman's Bureau. He was a brave and conspicuous soldier of tue war, he had been eminent in the good work of the freedmen, and he was a mem ber of the church. To blacken his name, therefore, was to stigmatize several good things, and the dirty work has been zeal ously prosecuted in what were known when fcren. Howard was leading an army corps and losing an arm as " Copper head" circles, his chief opponent being Fernando Wood. Some time since the Secretary of War 6ent certain statements to the House of Representatives, and a court martial was ordered upon charges involving uen. Howard's personal and official character. The court has 6ent its decision to the President, and, as it is known to be favorable, the expirine effort of malice was to insinuate that there were serious differences of judgment in the court. But the counsel of" Gen. Howard telegraphed to Mr. Edgar Ketchum that the court was unanimous upon the state ment of facts, also upon all matters affect ing his character as an officer and a gen tleman, and also in commending his con duct as Commissioner a decision which will be cordially welcomed by the coun try. Harper Weekly. m m A Little Advice to Farmers. Help your wives in every way you can. trivial though it may seem to you. For instance, keep an extra pair of shoes or slippers in the hall or entry, and always remember to change your dirty boots be fore entering her clean rooms. Then you may be sure of a smile of welcome, as no dirt will be left after you for her to clean up. In the evening comb your hair as carefully as ever you did in your courting days, put on a clean coat or dressing gown," and when you take your paper to read do not read to yourself and leave her to lonesome thoughts while sewing or mending, but remember mat sne 100 nas been working hard all day, and is still working. Read to her whatever interests you, so that her interests and opinions may grow with yours, and that she may comprehend something besides love sto ries, of which too many have read more than they should. You will both be hap pier, and being a farmer's or a mechanic's wife will not be such a dreadful tiresome and lonely life as many girls have every reason now to think it is. Science of Health. Sedatives for Children. The Popular Science Monthly gives this warning on the important matter of using sedatives for little ones: " One of the great dangers attending the use of the various sedatives employed in the nursery is that they tend to produce the opium habit. These quack medicines owe their soothing and quiet ing effects to the action of opium, and the infant is by them given a morbid ap petite for narcotic stimulants. The offer ing for sale j such nostrums should be prohibited, as tending to the physical and moral deterioration of the race. In India mothers give to their infants sugar pills containing opium, and the result is a languid, sensual race of hopeless de bauchees. In the United States the poisonous dose is administered under an other name, but the consequence will probably be the same."

A singular natural curiosity is found at Sadawga Pond, in Wittingham, Vt., consisting of 150 acres of land floating on the surface of the water, covered with eranberrits, and even sustaining trees fifteen feet high. When the water is raised or lowered at the dam of the pond the island rises and falls with it, and fish are caught by boring a hole in the crust and fishing down as through the ice in the winter. A similar island once ex isted in a small lake near Bangor, Me. ; and there are many such in Southern Florida. Don't Tamper with a Cough. Perhaps in the whole category of diseases to which hu manity is susceptible, the cough is most neg lected iu its early Btage.

Though "confirmations strong as proofs of Floiy Writ" and aa numerous as the sands on the sea shore were produced to prove that the proprietor of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy is in earnest, and means what he says when he offers $500 reward for any case of Catarrh which he cannot cure, yet there would be some skeptics and fogies who would continue to shout " Ifutnbng!" "Humbug!" "It can not be, because Dr. Homespun says Catarrh cannot lie cured." Now, this Dr. Homespun is the Identical, good-natured old fellow who honestly believes and persists in declaring that this earth is not round or spherical but as flat as a "slap-jack," and does not turn over, other wise the water would all be spilled out ot Dmicon Baseom's mill pond. But astronomi cal science has positively demonstrated and proven that Dr. Homespun is wrong in sup posing the . earth to be flat and station ary, and medical science is daily proving the fact that he is no less mistaken aud behind the times in regard to the curability of Catarrh. In short, it has been positively proven that this world mown, aud that medi cal science is progressive the opinion of Dr. Homespun to the contrary notwithstanding.

Modern science having demonstrated that alcohol is "neither food nor physic," but, on the contrary, a species ot poison, the intro duction of a potent tonic which is entirely free from it is certainly a subject for con gratulation.

Temperance organizations, heretofore in favor of permitting the sale of alcohol for medical purposes, are of opinion that Vinegar Bitters possesses all the effi cacy as an invigorant that has ever been even claimed for spirituous stimulants, and on this account, as well as because of the singular success which has attended its use m dyspepsia, liver complaint, dis ortlers of the bowels, nervous diseases, general debility and all maladies growing out of intemperance, they warmly recom mend it as a restorative and alterative of surpassing excellence. 43 Wilhoft's Toxic !
