New York Herald.
The moat vivid of tlio recent brillinnl
red suusota wns tlmt of last night. It T
bo roinoinborcd when this strnngo ovoninc
sight was first noticed Umt the lire onginc
companies of Peokskill , Poughkoopaio
nnd Troiiton , N. J. , wcro called out to
quench it , nnd in truth the first nppo
nnco wna so rcmarknblp whether on
iccottnt of ita novelty or its brilliancy is
immaterial as to deceive nil who saw it.
Bright' wns the first nppoarnnco con-
.mated with the ordinary glories of nun-
sot , the contrast wns notns rorrmrknblo ns
hat of last night compared with previous
similar manifestations. The whole west
ern sky was one glorious blush of cardinal
rod. i
For two hours the startling sight , for
which there wns something grand in the
vividness of the red glow , attracted the
ittcntion of the people hereabout. At
six o'clock the most poculinr phnso of the
ihonomcnon wns witnessed when in the
starlit sky the peculiar ruddy glow came
nnd wont.
At half-past six the sky in the west re
sumed its wonted evening aspect , nnd the
cosmic dust from interstellar space , or
Javanese volcanic dust , or what not else
; hnt may hnvo caused the magnificent
atmospheric effect was inoHoctual to dim
.ho lustre of the stars , which shone
out in electric distinctness the evening
through.
PU7.ZUID SAVANTS.
Savants in all parts ot the civilized
world areendeavormg t'o explain the cause
) f these recent magnificent sunsotn nnd
sunrises. These qorgcoua morning nnd
evening phenomena hnvo boon the aub-
oct of much conjecture nnd discussion
among scientific men for a month past ,
md opinion is divided ns to the cause of
.hem. On ono hand it has been main
tained that to the recent volcanic activity
n the earth's crust , in the vicinity of the
Island of Java , these strange sights are
vscribnblo , and the means by which this
jelief is arrived at are simple nnd valid
so for as they go. It is contended tlmt
durinc the volcanic activity vast quanti
ses of pumice dust nnd incinerated rock
were were carried as pollen might bo , in
; ho vast volumes of gas that escaped from
ho volcano's crater and berne into the
upperstratum of our ntmospcric envelope ,
nto which the light gases naturally found
heir way. That thcso clouds of line nnd
almost impalpable dust have since re-
nainod in the upper air is the claim of the
irst sot of gentlemen who seek to account
or tlio strange nppearanco of the sky at
night and in the morning. There is
lathing insupportable or untenable in
, his theory , as will bo shown ; but there
s a broader and more satisfactory c.xpla-
lation , and ono which , in the face of the
act that the observation of peculiar sun
rise and sunset effects is almost universal ,
coins to bo better founded.
COSMIU DUST.
It is tlmt the earth in ita travels
,1 trough space lias encountered a zone of
meteoric duct , and that to the presence
of this dust in our envelope are duo the
strange effects alluded to. So far ns tide
mrticular locality is concerned , the re-
mow storms are important factors in do-
crmining the moot as the cause of the
> rilliant red skies , for the snow , taken at
a distance from the possible influences of
city contamination , has boon found to
contain meteoric particles in largo quan
tities. The investigations are as yet
quite incomplete , but the microscope has
revealed the presence of certain peculiar
shaped atoms known to bo of cosmic ori-
; in At several observatories in the United
jtatcs , since the the strnngo effects wore
noticed , efforts have boon made to catch
vhatovor substance might bo in the air
> y moans of golatino-coatod plates ad j us
ed in an apparatus invented by Dr. Mi-
quol and known as the turoscope. Those
) latcs are adjusted at the small end of a
'unnoll-shapcd contrivance which , by
means of a weather vane , always presents
is mouth , so to speak , to the wind. The
? lntp being very sensitive , everything of a
foreign nature in the atmosphere is
caught on the adhesive surface and there
retained. Attached to the machine is an
anemometer by which the amount of air
passing through the funnel is ascertained.
Already some remarkable finds of inor
ganic matter have been made by means
of this contrivance at great elevations ; but
as most of the high stations are now cut
elf from communication , it will not bo
possible , until next summer , to ascertain
ind collate tie data gathered , and hence
; ho recent snow storm , \rhich carried
down with it all the foreign substances
ntorvoning between the elevation of
ts conversion , in to snow and the earth , is
of great scientific value , since th snow ,
vhcn submitted 'on prepared pans to high
omporaturo , is converted into water , to
ho bottom of which all the contained
dust precipitates itself.
nusr i.v THIS AnoTio ,
Tlio writer has soon Jn the extreme
north , under the eightieth parallel , on
Spitzbotrgon , where no dust conld prevail -
vail , since there , for geologic ages , the
surface of the earth lias boon covered
vith snow and ice , great patches of yol-
ow and black dust , presumably of meteoric
eric origin. Investigation of the sub
stance , however , failed to illuminate the
conjecture. The yellow dust which was
at first supposed to bo diatomacoousoozo ,
was found to bo formed of carbonate
of lime. _ The black dust , however -
over , contained metallic iron and was un
doubtedly of motoorio origin. On the
face of a grand glacier in'Greon Bay ,
Spitzbergon , from which had recently
broken away a liugo iceberg , could be
soon plainly defined the snows and accu
mulations of hundreds of years , nnd here
and there in woll-dollnod streaks , depos
its of black dust , presumably of motoorio
origin. Ono streak o ! black was more
extensive and of greater depth than any
of the others , but it was supposed tlia
this was the dust which descended on
Spitzbergon , Norway , the Fnroo islands
and some parts of the north of Bcotlatu
when IIoclatho great volcano of Iceland
was last in active eruption. The face o.
the fj'lacior being sheer nnd precipitous i
was impossible to ascertain whether or
not this speculation was well founded
That at the time of the eruption is ques
lion great showers of black dust descend
cd on the islands to the north of Scot
laod is attested by British meteorologies
records. As thin eruption was quite n
violent as that in Java last summer , am
ainco the limits .of ita effects are compara
lively BO confined , reaching only to Nor
way , it does scorn quite improbable tha
the Java eruption could exercise BO ex
tremely western an influence as to be ob
eervablo hero.
KAINH.
There is , however , MI this account no
good reason why it should bo arbitrarily
insisted that the strnngo redness in the
sky is duo solely to cosmio dust , for this
rod appearance nnd falls of rod snow nm
no-called blood rains hnvo boon quiti
common within historic time. Many o
those storms hnvo boon investigated b ;
Ehrenborg and hnvo boon fouiuf to con
inln infusoria , whoso tcrrcstinl origin ho
wns able to locate. Some account of these
may in this connection bo of interest *
The great Gorman naturalist nnd micros
copist mentions in his "Micro-Ooologio1
81 dust storms which took place before
the Christian era , beginning with Ilia
mention by Homer in the "Iliad. " Sub
sequent to the beginning of our era ho
mentions about throe times that number.
The poculinr mills mentioned below are
some of them mentioned by Laury , others
by Von Humboldt , in "Kosmos" ami
others by Ehronborg :
\n the Bth and Oth of November , -172
A. D. , there was n fall of black dust in
; ho neighborhood of Constantinople ami
, ho atmosphere seemed to bo on ( iro.

In 1110 A. 1) . , in the province of Vns-
tourngan , in Armenia , n flaming body

In 1210 or 1222 A D. , ( the dnto is un
certain ) , n rod rain loll in Bohemia. At
ho same time there was a falling of tine
and n mass like coagulated blood.
On November 0 , A. D. , 1618 , in
rhuringia , a ball of fire fell with great
loiso , followed by n reddish substance
ike coagulated blood , which remained
covering the ground for a long time.
In Pomorania , in 1557 , there fell largo
lakes of n substance resembling blood.
On December 21 , 15GO , nt Lillobonno ,
n Lower Seine , Franco , n meteor foil ,
allowed by a red rnin.
At the close of the terrible tempest ,
an July 5 , 1H82 , there foil in Itockhnuson ,
n Prussia , n qunntity of fibrous matter
resembling human hair.
On December . ' ) , 1D8G , there fell nt
toidon , Hanover , largo quantities of
natter , black and 'rod , accompanied by
ightning and thunder.
In August , 1018 , n meteor fell in
Styrin , accompanied by a blood rod rain.
In 1038 , at Tournay , in Belgium , a red
rain fell.
In January , 10-13 , n blood red rain foil
n Voohigon nnd in Woinsborg , in the
cmgdom of Wurtcmborg.
On March 28 , lOGil , there foil near
jaucha , Prussia , n shower of fibrous
ubstanco , like blue silk.
WIIintK DID IT COME FUOM ?
On January 31 , IOCS , there fell in Nor
way a great quantity of membranous sub-
tances , friable and like half-burnt papor.
'ho Baron Gotthaus analyzed n portion
f the substance and found in it silox ,
ron , lime , carbon , magnesia , n trace of
hromo and of sulphur , but not a particle
f nickel , which is always present in
crolitcs.
On March 24 , 1718 , on the island of
jetliy , in India , a ball of fire fell and af-
.or it a gelatinous red substance.
On October 14 , 1755 , a blood-rod rain
escoiulcd at Locarno , Switzerland. Nine
nchcs of rain fell , and it was ascertained
hat the red matter contained in this
hewer was an inch deep by actual moas-
romont. The same storm reached
Mvabia , on the Alps , and there changed
nto a reddish snow , which fell to a depth
f nine foot.
On August lit , 1819 , a mass of gelatin
ous matter foil in Amlicrst , Mass.
In 1811 two blood-red rains are men-
ined ono in Massachusetts , the other
n Tennessee.
In 1842 a man named Ingelow and his
; wo sons were picking cotton on a planta-
ion in Laurons district , near Eurolo
river , South Carolina , when out of an al
most cloudless sky great particles of rod
gelatinous matter fell in a shower.
In 1807 n similar rain foil in Albany ,
ind the late lamented Dr. Jacob T ,
VIoshor , of happy memory , made nn
analysis of it. Ho found it contained
; orms of marine growth , likely facus
Matycatpus.
In 1813 , according to Von Humboldt ,
.hero was a fall of rod-colored hail in
Palermo.
The same year there was , according to
same authority , a fall of orange
intcd hail in Tuscany.
In March , 1803 , at Corniolo , Gor-
nany , there wns a fall of five foot of rod
snow.
A brick colored snow foil in Italy in
1810.

In the first volume of Kane's "Arctic
Explorations , " page 41 , the following ,
which proves the universal character of
.hose phenomena rains , will bo found :
"My diary continues : Wo passed the
Jrimeon cliffs of Sir John Ross in the
forenoon of August p. The patches and
rod snow from which they derive their
naino could bo soon clearly nt a distance
of ton miles from the coast , It had a fine
deep rose hue , not at all like the brown
latin which I noticed when I was here
jcforo. All the gorges and ravines in
yhich the urlow had lodged were deeply
, intod with it. I had now no difficulty
n justifying tlio somewhat poetical
nomenclature which Sir John Franklin
applied to this locality , for if the unowy
surface were inoro diffused , as it is no
doubt earlier in the season , crimson
would be the prevailing color. The
rod snow wns diversified with largo
surfaces of beautiful green and olopo-
cua.'i
There have been with us for the past
; cn years raina of flies and roptiles.if cer
tain news papers are to bo crodieod , but
the books nro silent concerning many of
thcso phonominal rains. Dr. Lorno ol
Laval university , however , vouches for
the Canadian rain of flies reported in
1870. In"Auiight dor Natur" Hum-
boldt discusses the origin of those strnngi
rainsand ho ia in agreement with Ehrcn
berg that manof them are duo to the
presence of infusoria in the nir , These
it is suggested , wore carried into the aii
by storms nnd then precipitated in dis
taut places.
Darwin mentions many dust storms encountered
countered by wiling vessels as far ns 800
miles off the cpnst of Africa , in mid-At
lantio , and proved on investigating the
dock swooping ! that they were of Contra
African origin. The dust from the ho
interior plaiiu , it seems , had beet
whirled into the upper air by wind
storms and berne out to eon to the distance
tanco mentioned.

Castle Garden in 1883 shows a very Inrg
falling oil'from the figures recdrded th

foreigners were disembarked thoro. The
greatest proportion of this decrease is
credited to tlio first nix months of the
year. During the first half of the year
the number of arrivals more closely np
proximated the figures of the corrcipond
ing period in 1882. The number of passengers

Mr Jackson sayo that the number re-

SERGEANT MASON.
Ho Tells an InterestIIIK Story of
llctuni to ' 'llottyaml the
Baby. "
hlladolphla 1'rcai , January 2d.
A slender , sinewy man , dressed in
lain citizens' clothes , a slouch hat and
quaro-tood , old-fashioned boots , with
eng , dark hair nnd keen blue eyes ,
vnlked , unnoticed , up to the desk nt the
Continental hotel last evening , and wrote
lis name on the register , in largo , bold
diameters , "John A Mason. " Sergeant
Mason , for it was none other than ho ,
lion loisurly proceeded to the elevator
ndwaaconveyed ] to his rooiiio'i , the third
Ipor , where they were waiting to receive
ijm , Mr. Porloy and Mr. Hugar , of the
limo museum , where the sergeant will
vo on exhibition during the coming two
weeks. The news of his arrival spread
illicitly through the hotel , and in ton
minutes a crowd Had collected about the
cgistor anxious to catch a glimpoo of his
name.
The sergeant looks well , and all traces
> f his conlinomont have disappoarpd. His
lair , ns black ns the raven's wing , has
; rown long and hangs in locks around
lis forehead. His manner is confident ,
hough modest , and lie is ovcry whit
ho solf-namo bold , dashing soldier , who ,
miniated by what ho bplioved to bo an
nspiration , sped the swift bullet on its
vay ; so near the heart of the assassin ,
jiiitenu.
Ho tolls n thrilling story of his meeting
vith "Betty nnd tlio Buby , " nftor ho was
mrdoncd. The moment the document
> f executive clemency was put in his
rombling hands , eager with tlio hope of
oining Ins wife and child , ho rushed to
ho depot and boarded a fast train for
ionic. Fate wns with him , for ho made
ivory possible connection in Now York ,
Philadelphia nnd "Washington , nnd the
ovonim ; of that same day ho jumped
rom the cars at the little town of Fredericksburg -
ericksburg , Va. , only twenty-four miles
rom his homo. Ho ran , so great was his
lauto , to the nearest livery stable , nnd
aid : "I want n horse right away. My
wiiio is Sergeant Mnson ; I'm on my way
' and the . " "What
to'BoUy Baby.1" , are
'on Sergeant Mason ? " cried all around
n amazement , na n horse was saddled for
iis use.
Not stopping to talk to his delighted
rionds the Sergeant mounted the homo
and dashed away across the hills and
hroiigh the woods towards the village of
Locust Grove , whore Betty , with the
jaby , was awaiting his coming with an
anxious heart. It was nearly nightfall
when ho reached the homo of his child-
liood. Ho had expected to return to his
loved ones in the saino log cabin in which
lie had left them , and great waa his sur
prise to find standing in ita place a s.ub
stantial frnmohouso. Dismounting , ho
advanced to the ( , 'ato , whore ho stopped ,
and cried out , "Doea Sergeant Mason live
hero ? " There was aery of joy in response ,
and in an instant ho was clasped in his
wife's arms ,
That night the country folks gathered
at the house from miles around and tend
orcd him n rousing welcome. Ho says
he is not going to exhibit himself nil ]
longer than is necessary to enable him to
save enough money with which to start a
stock farm. It is expected that ' 'Bptt ;
and the Baby" will roach the city in i
few days , when they will also bo on exhibition

Mischievous Mnlarla.
To say that malaria la mischievous
is to put it vcrjr mildly , It ia all that
and more. It is cunning1 , deceitful ,
treacherous , sly , and underhanded.
It does its work in the dark , and in
such a slv way that much of the mis
chief is done before it is discovered.
It saps the foundations of a healthy
system. It robsthcblood of its vital
ity , demoralizes the liver , confounds
the stomach , and makes the victim
wish he were in his grave. It is sad
to sec pcoplcsit down in their misery ,
content to bcthc victims of mischiev
ous malaria , and thinking1 that noth
ing can be done for them. The power
of BROWN'S IRON BITTERS over the
mischiefs of malaria has been so am
ply proved that there is no reason
why anybody who can procure a
bottle of this Prince of Tonics shall
suffer. Great is the power of malaria ,
and great are its disastrous effects.
But greater far is the beneficent in
fluence of BROWN'S IRON BITTERS.
The preparation of iron in this favor
ite family remedy 'can be taken
without ruining the teeth or produc
ing constipation and headache , j
