PDBUC opinion throughout the Unit
I ed States Is rapidly crystallizing on the
subject of anti-monopoly legislation.
Eight years ago THE Ban began its
battle upon this issue , single handed
and nlone. To day there is hardly a
prominent city In the United States
; which cannot boxst of an inflaencial
journal which devotes much of its at
tention to this great and all abiorbing
brae.
THERE is no better time than the
.present for the democratic party to
follow Editor Dana's ad/icv > , and
"study astronomy. " Three of the
.largest planets can now bo seen every
evening in the western sky , in close
proximity to each other and in nearly
a straight line. Of thc , the bright-
' * wt4fl Venus , the next above is Jupi
ter , and the third is Saturn. "Venus ,
if vievrd through a small telescope ,
presents the appearance of a
half moon. It is now east of the
sun and appears to us as the evening
star at a distance of some 66,000,000
of miles from that body. At present
'the planet is about twen'y six million
five hundred thousand miles distant
from the earth. Venus is smaller th in
Ihe earth and completes her revolution
on her xis in twenty-one hours.
Jnpiter is the largest pltnet of the
- ; > lar system and is distant at the pre-
'
tent time from the sun 475.000,000 of
miles. The volume of JopUer exceeds
the "earth 1234 times. He is accom
panied by four satellites which are
orly visible with a telescope.
Saturn , the third "f the groan , has
been receding from the earth for two
'
.years. He is now 872,000,000 miles
- 'distantfrom the onn. Saturn is about
800 time * larger than the earth.

- A Wonderful Winter.
NewTork Sun.
This , winter is ono of exceptional
severity in Europe as well as in all
parts of the United States. ' People
have been accustomed to congratulate
themselves in the cliniitt > of t bostates ,
and territories of the Pacific coast ,
wheie the air is so temparud by a
warm current from the shores of
Japan that snow and ice are rarely
seen there ; but this year they 'are
greater sufferers than wo .on the ouldcr
Atlantic. While the states east
of the Rocky mountains have
experienced the discomforts of severe
cold , on the other side of that r.inge
'there has bo.-jn i-umensa destruction
of. property by flood * that h < tvo sur
passed in extent duythiug cvor re
corded before. The devastation caused
along the line of the Union Pacific ,
and in the valley of the Sicrameuto
hts been announced by telegraph , but
later reports from Oregon show that
alao in one of- the choicest farming re-
gious of that productive statP there
baa been serious and
wide-eproad da-
aster. Meantime wo hear that in some
'parts of Mexico parsons have frzan
to death ; that in Holland the
dykes have been swept away by the
sea , and a whole province inundated ,
causing great loss of property and
much suffering ; that in London there
has beou fl > ocla and snow-aturms that
have necessitated a temporary sus
pension of all business , and inflicted
damage to the amount of $10,000-
000 ; that in Russia large colonies of
Germans have been reduced to ex
treme destitution , and tbat in France
the military have bien called but to
assist in clearing the roads. This ia an
extraordinary hit of calamities
from' storm and winter's cold , and
will doubtless ba regirded by s > ma as
a fulfillment of thu predictions thqt
serious disturbances of the elements
would be occasioned this year in con
sequence of the position of the plane
tary bodies , while those who have an
nounced 1881 as thu date of the oud if
the -sorld will doubtless begin to set
their housts in order. '
