Late investigations of German j

electric light is not only healthier i
than other methods of illumination j
in leaving the air purer, but that

M. Pasteur has resolved to ex
tend his -studies in vaccination to
yellow fever, with a view of de
termining whether or not the dis
ease is due to parasites and can be
guarded against by inoculation.
A broad field of investigation is
open to Pasteur, as it is suggested
by his discoveries thus far that all
contagious maladies may be duo
to parasitic growths, the virulence
of which may bo so reduced by
his method of inoculation as to
render this class of diseases no
longer a matter of dread.
A Neapolitan gardiner, after
years of experiment, has produced
a camelia with a delicate perfume,
and he thinks it probable that
these flowers may in the near
future be so cultivated as to rival
tho roso in the fragrance of its
odor.
Mr. C. Shaler Smith has given
the results of extensive observa
tions in relation to the pressure
exerted by the wind. The most
violent gale reoorded by him was
at East St. Louis, in 1871, when
the wind overturned a locomotive,
the force developed in so doing
was no less than ninety three
pounds to the square foot. At St.
Charles a jail was destroyed in
1877, the pressure required being
eighty-four pounds per square
foot. At Marshfield, in 1880, a
brick mansioH was leveled, the
force necessary being fifty-eight
pounds per square foot. Below
these extraordinary pressures,
Mr. Smith instances numerous
cases of trains boing blown off
rails, and bridges, etc., blown down
bj gales of twenty-four to thirty
one pounds per square foot. In
all the examples the lowest force
required to do the observed dam
age has been taken as the maxi
mum power of the wind, although,
of course, it ma' have been
higher.
Enthusiasts who make a special
study of sun-spots and attendant
phenomena believe that the corner-stone
of a new science i being
laid by discoveries pointing to an
intimate connection between solar
and terrestrial meteorolojjv. Just
what the connection is they are
not yet able to clearly define, al
though electricity is suspected of
.being the agent through which the
effects are manifested upon our
planet. It is known that the gas-
leous envelope of the sun is affect-;
i

eleven years the so-called "sun

cists claim a coincidence of the
period of the maximum spots and
years of great atmospheric and
physical disturbance in the earth.
The present has beon a year of
great solar disturbances, whilo it
has been marked by violent storms
jand earthquakes upon our globe.
The St. Louis Republican con
denses an article for the Interna
tional lteview, by Robert P. Por
ter, giving statistics that will be
interesting to even one who takes
pride in the growth of tho coun
try, and is curious to know how
the population has been distribu
ted with respect to locality, etc.
The article shows that from 1790
to 1800 the New England states
increased in population at the rate
of 22 per cent., the Middle Mates
J6 per cent., and tho Southern
states 3fl per cent. The popula
tion of these divisions was then
respectively 1,000,40S, 1,337,450,
1,582,350. In the decade ending
1810 the percentage of increase
was: New England states 19,
Middle states 3G, Southern slates
35, and the Western states 174.
In 1820 the increase in the four
divisions was 12 per cent., 24 per
cent., 30 per cent., 193 per cent.,
respectively. In 1830 the increase
of the three first named divisions
was about tho same, while the
west fell to 87 per cent.
In 1840 the New England states
had increased in the decade 14
per cent., tho Middle and South
ern states decreased 23 per cent.,
and the Western increased to 120
per cent. In 1S50 the increase in
the four sections was 22 per cent., j
29 per cent., and 57 per cent., res
pectfully. In 1SG0 the increase
was 14: per cent., 25 pr cent., 24
per cent., 57 per cent. The civil
war intervened, in 1870 the score
stood 11 per cent., 18 per cent., 9
per cent., and 43 per cent. ln
1880 the increase is shown as 14
per cent., 19 per cent., 35 per
' v ' '
cent., and oG per cent., tho total
population now being 50,155,783. j
In the Western states are included
the territories. If states only had
been counted tho Southern states
would hare shown again the most
rapid rate of increase, the first
time sinco 1800. Tho normal j
growth of New England has 1)ecn
14 per cent.

two-tenths of 1 per cent, in Maine
to 12i- per cent, in the District of
Columbia. The states in which
females are in excess are in the
Atlantic region. Tennessee and
Alabama being the only inland
states where preponderance exists.
The densest population exists
in the valley of the Delaware
river, where there are 170 to ihe
square mile. The Hudson comes
next, and Miami third. There are
in the valley of the Mississippi
21.823,254 population. In 1S79
there were only 10,431,855 in the
Mississippi valley.
Tho hottest portion of the coun
try is the southern end of Florida,
while southern, Texas and smith-
, western Arizona come next in de
gree of temperature. The great
est increase in population n in tSse
medium temperature between 50
and 55 degrees. Theie are 2S5
cities whose population range be
tween 8.000 and 1,200,000.
General F. A. Walker, superin
tendent of the census, estimates
the population in 1890 at about
05.000,000 and in 1900 at possibly
85,000,000.
The Philadelphia Times sa's:
"Love without a kiss would be like
the harp without the hand; the
rainbow without its hue; the brook
without its babble; the landscape
without its color; the tea-rose
without its odor; poetry without
its rythm, or marriage without
love." The Times might have con
tinued its comparisons, and likened
love without a kiss to a hand-organ
without its crank; an egg without
salt; a cod-fish without flavor; a
society young man without money;
a boil without a poultice; an oys
ter without its health; a circus
without a clown; but they
wouldn't have sounded so poetical.
The editor of the Boston Globe
has returned from a tour in the
Southern states, and this is what
he says: "Some Northern editors
would have you believe, that the
Southerners are still unrepentant,
irreconcilable rebels. Go down
South, affiliate with the people,
behave yourself like a gentleman
and when you return, you will un
hesitatingly call thoe editors
something wotse than a liar.''

Tho Count Cinchon was the Spanish
Viceroy in I'oru in 1630. The Countess,
his wife, was prostrated by an intermit
tent fever, from which slm was freed by
the u-e of the native remedy, the Peru
vian bark. or. as it was called in the
language of the country, "-Quinquina.
(Iraleful for her recovery, on her return
to Europe in licy, she introduced the
remedy in Spaiu, where it was known
under various names, until Liumcus
called it Cinchona, in honor of the lady
who had brought them that which was
more precious than the gold of the Iucas.
