COLOR-BLINDNESS.
A
of Vision Which Is Said to Bo
Largely Hereditary.
The defect ot vision known as color
blindness is a very curious one.
Il
consists ot either total or partial lack
ot ability to disting.il-h color, while
tlie sight may be faultlM. in every
other respect When total, the sensa
tion of color is absolutely wanting,
and the individual sees only different
shades of white and black.
These
ctsea. however, are extremely rare.
More common is partial color-blind-
tiosH. where the sen-ation Is defective
in relation to cer ain colors, but not
to alL
This is of three kind«—red-
blindness. green-blindness and violet
blindness.
Cases of tli»last variety
are so sel-iom met with that tho term
oolor-blindnoss, as commonly used,
lias reference Io either red-biindnoss
or ereon-blindiioss.
P r«ons vh > -Jiro rod-blind »no all
red obj ect as a shude of gray, and the
sanw
true of the green blind as to
r<>»u. A mixture of white and black
in proper proportions will give to tlie
color-blind the same sensation as the
different shades of red and green. It
is some»hat singular that while there
is no reason to doubt that color-blind
ness is as old as man, it was not dis
tinctly recognized and accurately de
scribed until a little more than a hun
dred years ago.
Tlie first case on record is that of a
shoemaker named Harris, who lived in
Mayport, England. It b said that his
first suspicion of any peculiarity of
vision on his part arote when he was
altout four years oliL Having by acci
dent found a child’s stocking in the
street he carried it to a house near by
to inquire for the owner. He noticed
that other peoplo called it a red stock
ing, but could not understand why
they did so, as it seemed to him com
pletely described by calling it a
stocking.
He observed, also, that
while
the
children
with
whom
he
played
could
distinguish
tlie chorries on a tree by some pre
tended difference of color, ho could
onlv tell them from tho leaves by their
difference in size and sliapo. Ho found,
too, that by means of tills diff ironce in
color, or in some way which he could
not understand, they could see the
cherries at a greater distauco than lie
could, though in cases where their
sight was not assisted by the color,
he could see objects at as great a dis-
tance as any of thorn.
Tliis case was described in 1777.
Seventeen yenrs later the celebrated
English chemist, D.ilton, described his
own case so accurately and minutely
that color-blindness in general, and
especially tlie form of it with which ho
was afflicted — namely, red blindness—
has since been known as Daltonism.
He says that he was never convinced
of any peculiarity of liis vision until ho
accidentally observed the color of the
flower geranium tonale liy candlelight.
Tlie flower was pink, blit appeared to
him almost an exact sky-blue by day.
Bv tlie light of the candle, howevur, it
seemed to him not to have any blue iir
1L being what lie called red—a color
which forms a striking contrast to
blue. His friends, to whom he re
ferred tlie matter, agreed that the
color wns not materially different from
what it was by daylight, except his
brother, who was subject to the same
defect as himself. Two years after
ward he began to investigate tlie sub-
j ct of colors, or color-blind test. Ho
found that ho could distinguish but
two, or at most three, colors in the
rainbow.
These wore yellow and
blue, or yellow, blue and purple. Hia
yellow Included tlie green, yellow,
orange and red of others. This was
the same Dr. Dalton who afterwards,
though a Quaker and conscientiously
opposed to wearing bright colors, when
ho had received tlie scarlet gown
of a doctor of laws for presenta
tion at court not only donned it with
out objection, but also wore it for sev
eral days upon tlie street, in happy,
unconsciousness of the effect which he
produced.
Col. r-bllndness is largely hereditary,
and affects males much more frequent
ly than females.
It oils s from birth,
and there is no means known by which
It can be remedied
A temporary
condition of color-blindires« is occa
sionally met with, due to disease m
Injury, which passes away with tho
condition which produced it
The
existence of color-blindness in persons
occupying nspotisible positions in the
railroad and marine sorvicos is a
source of great danger to the travel
ing public, and in most countries ex-
aminatiuns are provided by law, f r

ception of all applicants for these

MOUNT
SHASTA,
Poetical Description of the Grandest
Mountain in America.
Bctwoen the great pines going up
you sec the religious dome of Mount
Shasta, its snows and frowns so mixed
that one perceives it nearly with super
stition.
Shasta is ono of the finest mountains
in America, a naked dome of rock,
gravel and perpetual snow, made by a
volcano, and having two side pieces or
transepts, the whole mass standing up
white and dun in crazy-quilt patches
of triangles of snow and ovuls of rocks,
and slides of loam and gravel, above
a skirt of Oregon pines, which are of
sober green and seem the kirtle of a
huge, muscular, naked man, wearing a
clout of green as he kneels upon the
platead and surveys
his brood of
inoundy peaks extending around him
in an amphitheater of a hundred miles.
There is but one Shasta, and he is a
Sierra—one of the bold range beyond
the Rockies, overlooking the Orient
West “There is t..o East, there is
Europe," says the statue of Thomas
Benton at St. Louis, pointing at the
same time West.
There is a county of California called
Shasta, and a range of mountains be
tween Sacramento river and the sea is
called the Shasta Range. It is only a
night’s ride or a sleep of 340 miles be
tween San Francisco and Mount Shasta,
and in this ride you rise nearly 3.600
feet to Sisson, in Strawberry Valley,
from which Mount ShasLa’s peak is
still 10,885 feet higher, or above the
sea 14,440 feet.
It is 10,000 feet higher than the Lick
Observatory on Mount Hamilton.
This is the power of Mount Shasta—
that it rises so grandly above every
thing else—not like Pike’s or Gray’s
Peak, one of a large family of mount
ains sitting around the white table
cloth of the skies. It seems the high
est when you are at it, and looks to be
inaccessible. The railroad keeps wind
ing around its base as a wheelbarrow is
guided around a cathedral’s steeples.
It is more than twice the height of
Mount Washington, and is seven-eighths
the height of Mont Blanc.
For 2,000 feet the snow-slides drop
down its sides, frequently turning red.
Then for 4,000 feet lower tho inorganic
mass stands like a Vulcan among his
cinders. Next for 2,000 feet encamp the
firs, where once the lava licked the
world.
Yet it is only twelve miles from Sis
son on the railroad to Shasta’s top, and
women have ascended it, and pant and
grumble in the deed less than men.
In four days there was carried up by
white men and Indians a copper monu
ment weighing 3,500 pounds, which
can be seen 190 miles away. But no
signal officer can live on Shasta's top.
Its pimples, 1,500 feet high, are like
the warts on Cromwell’s head when
Warts like clouds that rise against the sun,
But make him greater seem—not greater grow.
As I passed Shasta a great white'
cloud was trailing from it like a pen
non, called the
“Snow-banner of
Shasta." It really was a palpitating,
cloud-like wild bird, failing for breath
as it flew, and holding tip-toe to the
peak, with its feet in snow-drifts, while
its plumage blew outward and away.
There is a butte, or mountain hump,
near Shasta, 6,500 feet high, but the
snows, like virgin belles at court, dis
dain to coquette with it, and keep all
their flakes for Shasta. It, too, is a
tine and stuck-up thing quite solitary,
but the miners only call it ¿Uiasta
Butte, as the actors called Mr. Greene,
when he compared himself to Shake
speare, Shakespeare’s call-boy.
Coining up to Shasta from the south
by the tortuous canj’on of the Sacra
mento, you see the great mountain
vaguely yet tremendous, as Io saw
Jupiter in his cloudy passion, but, go
ing from it northward, as the locomo
tive turns often to see it, the god stands
out naked as before bold Juno in tlie
domesticity of the heavens: the pastur
age plains of the Klamath stretching
below him like a coverlet pushed
away.
You see him to be a volcano put out
by snows, and our only worthy brother
of the Alps, like Monte Rosa dissected
out of them and spirited away in the
Gambols of the Titans.
The Alps too often hide in the reek
ing dews of Lombardy, but Shasta is
set in a sky that in limpid as the blues
in the eyes of babes.
How still it is, with that great, un
mistakable scar of crater a mile and a
half wide, telling were hell climbed up
aud vomited its blood and flame to
gether drunkenly for some momentary
spasms of thousands of years’ We
have resolved that hell is not, but there
is Shasta, and somewhere must be fire.
Glorious relic of a time when man
was not, and Pan was playing with the
tools of Vulcan, the molten waste of
Shasta ran away, spilling westward
into a range of mountains, each spat
tering up to be like Shasta’s self, but
making only tame miniatures of it.—

profession. Some of his oonfesiions an
<»f a kind on which persons of goo<’.
taste would hardly care to dwell;
others are comparatively void of of
fense and undoubtedly curious. Ther
seems reason to suspect that political
»ympathies have had something to d«
with the choice of this highly respecta
ble organ, of East Anglian Conserva
tism as the medium of these confidences.
In other words, James Berry is, accord
ing to his own declaration, “a Conserv
ative through and through," in that
regard differing from a brotlier of bis
(of whom more anon) whois, or rather
was, “a Liberal, and in favor of
abolishing capital punishment." Berry,
we gather, stands Na 14 in the list of
a iamHy of twenty>ono children. It
will hardly surprise any one to leal n
that his friends did not approve 01
his choice of a profession, but all
right-feeling persons will be shocked
to hear of the disastrous indirect
effects of James Berry’s abnormal
inclinations upon his afflicted relatives.
Questioned on this delicate subject, he
replied, mournfully:
“It killed my
mother and brother." Then, with an
apparently morbid pleasure in harrow
ing details, ho went ou to say: “When
Marwood died I was appointed in his
place, and directly my mother knew
of it she was taken ill. My father’s
solicitor then wrote the Home Office
informing the authorities of this. The
result was that I gave up the position,
and Binns got the appointment. My
niother died soon attci wards, and then,
when 1 saw the way in which Binns
was going on, I caiue to the conclusion
that he would not hold tho place long,
and I again wrote to tho Home Office,
stating that my mother was dead, and
that there was nothing now to prevent
my accommodating them if my assist
ance should bo required.
Soon after
that I was engaged to hang two men
at Edinburgh, and I have carried out
nearly all the executions since then."
The sequel of the tragic tale is yet to
tell:
“My brother," he went on to
say, “ha»l married a girl with plenty of
money, and his pride received a Blow
on my appointment. That was the
cause of his death." This, it appears,
was the brother who was “a Liberal"
and “in favor of abolishing capital
punishmont"
It must be confessed
that this unfortunate member of the
Berry family could hardly have given
h more emphatic proof of his dislike of
the hangman’s office. It is to be hoped
that we have here reached the final
incident in this ghastly tale, though
James Berry’s final observation,.“Al
together I have buried my mother, two
brothers and two aunts within the last
three years," has a painfully ominous
sound.— Exeter County {Eng.) Chron
icle.
NUPTIAL NOVELTIES,
The Queer Wuy In Which Nome Weddings
Are Celebrated.
At the bottom of a good many strange
developments of civilization which we
owe to America lies a. passion for novel
ty for its own sake, and not for any
ulterior benefits which is produced by
it People who dislike the old hum
drum methods find all round them a
a society equally fond of “new depart
ures;" and in a democratic land the
unusual is not always frowned upon as
being necessarily wicked. American
couples have before now been married
in balloons, in railway cars, and even
in bathing machines.
The individuals who delight in these
social antics have no desire to shock
their neighbors or to do any thing that
will be dubbed grossly iniquitous; they
only choose to act for themselves and
to do things in their own way, to step
out of the rut for a time. They will bo
able to talk afterward about their wed
ding as having been determined under
unique circumstances; their children
will proudly boast how “their papa and
mamma were married in a balloon," or
In a box on wheels near the briny deep,
an the case may be.
Who can say but that some day a
bridegroom will astonish the specta
tors, his mother-in-law, especially, by
appearing as Robin Hood, in a tasteful
suit of green, with quiver slung on his
back? And it would only require one
step farther for the officiating clergy
man to don the vestments generally
associated with the name of Friar
Or the bridegroom might be married
as Orlando aud the bride as Ro.alind.
In our English weddings—we know
not how the Americans manage this
detail—it is usual for a few seloct and
favored individuals to kiss the bride in
tiie veS'ry when the whole performance
isover; it would be obviously impos.i
bio for this special feature to be omit
ted. and equally inappropriate for th.
bride to be kissed in public. Therefore
it would be essential to have an Im
promptu vestry at hand—say tho hol
low of an old tree—in .which, besides,
the register could be signed and the
usual fees paid. A pleasant lunch on
