The funeral train met with no delay after leaving Altoona, ani reached Cleveland at 1:17 !p. m. of Saturday Sept 24. Immense throngs of sorrowing people gathered at the stations along the route, anl at several point's the track was strewn with fowera. The train wag met by a Tast couoourei' of people at the depot in Cleveland. The ktcomcUve ma hoavily draped in deep bliuA on the boCer-head, and ail the cars were elaborately drapeo. After the train stopped, the ladies were escorted to the carriages. The wipes of the Cabinet officers went first; then, tile distinguiflied widow, supported on one side by Secretary Blaine, and on the other by h r son Harry. The ladies, having been placed in. the carriages, were sent to the places provked for them at private rejidenees, lira, Garfleldad . children being the guests or James Mi son. The body of the late President was then taken from its earby a dtlachment of the -egnlar irmy. under Lieut. Weaver, and borne on thtir shonlders to a special bearse in waiting, followed by disangmsbed guaid it honor, marching two by two, an army acd A naval oflieer abreast. Gen. Sherman and f eat Admira: Nichols were first; then Gen. Sheridan and Admiral Rodger. Gen. Hancock and Ailmiral Porter, and Gens, Drum and Meign passed, vith other naval offieern not named. Then followed Chief Justice Waito and other Supreme Court Justices, memlierd of the Cabinet, Gov. Foster and Btaff and escort, and the committer At liW the coffin, on wh'ch were palms and a large wreath fragrant with tuberoses, wasjlaeed in a bearse, and the hne of march formed in the following order : CoL Wilson and staff, Silver Greys' baud, First city trooi s.

or tue army atia oistinguisiiea guests. Leaving the depot the ccrtego moved very slowly down Euclid avenue, the bells tolling, and people standing with uncovered heads. All the fcoueert on the route of march wem elaborately deiorated. Arriving at Monumental Park, Iho remains were conreved through the fine or guards to the pavilion prepared for the lying in statu until intermimt The casket was placed by (he pall-tiearm on the dais underneath a canopy supported by four gilt Egyptian columns. On account of the feelings of to 3 widow the taoe was not exposed, but instead was p'afled aa admirable copy likeness, lake: 1 by J, F. llyder on president Gvfield's rotnr 1 from the Chicago Convention- a most natun 1 portrait.

tt was clear, warm and' windy. The mala trances tn ihe puhlie square wore Uuroau op;n to the public at 1 o'clock in the morning, a id an hour before that time a procession began to form, which lengthened and stretched we itward for three or four blocks, like no enormous human anaeouda, wriggling to make progress, as the word was given the throug kept in pttrfect order by tho police and militia guardsmen, pushed forward to the catafalque. At flrat the? moved slowly, those in front pa using at the catafalque to pay more than a 'parting tribute to the joad President ; but grade ally the impatient mass io the rear caused an acceleration in the movement, and by 10 o'clock the two Unas were pouHnglhrougH the pavilion at the rate of 100 or 500 every live minntos, a speed that was niaintained with little Letup until 9 o'clock at night. At times (he line of mourners was a mile in lonf th, the f rths- end of the procession beinp: lost to sight around the curva in the great viaduct leading off Superior street There must have bees 10,000 people in line mo-it of the tin) .-, and there were counter procession of n- eu, women an J children leading from the square to the remote extremity of the line, where tney fell in plane and returned. Men and women if all classes ani stations, at indicated by dress and appearance, vere there, and there was no exhibition of ili-tenipcT or impariinco noticeable. Probably 45,. 00 pilgrims pasted the shrine during the day and evening, .nd the streets and highways aliout the sqaaiM and lea-ling to it vere packed all the time. It is no exaggeration to say that 1X1,000 people were cm tho streets within it radius of two blocks from the cataf a': que from sunrise to midnight. "The eatafalqne at night was a citadel or glory. The ghastly glare of the electric hVlits, blending with the softer yet scarcely less brilliant flash from the monster headlight mounted on the main arch, shed upon the palace ol death a halo that transformed it into a temple of almost supernatural beauty. None could view the spectacle without emotion, and thousands massed in the streets in front, gazing upon it in rapt adiiiration. Never had it appeared to uach advantage before. It was incomparably beau .itul and, as a spectator whose soul was inorsd by the sight observed, " It is indeei betttiug tl.tt a King of men should rest on such a splend-.d bier." The bronzed columns of tlie dais, with their chivalrk mountings, glittered in the night like burnished gold, making blacker th j sable drapery of the tomb of a day. The shields lad swords and massive emblems that adorned the corner pieces of the structure, together with the funeral wreath and oilier floral wrappings, so placed as to relieve the uacligioond of melazeholy black, mule a separate picture by themselves, a magnificent frame f x tte central figure, the whole forming what m-ght wcllToe called tho glorious creation of an artist's dream.'

Iho immediate members of the family and near relatives and friends took seats about the casket, and at each corner woe utatio:iect a member of the Cleveland Grays, each or wi-om stood like a statue during tho entire progn lime.

A few minutes before 12 o'clock the militaiy bodvgnard from Washington movod up the eft incline, entered the pavilion, halted at the bier, lifted the casket containing tho nation's dost, ornamented only by tho Queen Victoria wreath and John Hooy's sage palms, and reverently boru ft on,-thetr hroad and powerful shoulders to Mio elaborate funeral car in waiting near the east entrance, Im-

podin;: as was ino cenotapn in ine lrk avilion, thi-i tonihir carriage of the (lend was c .eu more so. Maesivo in its proportions, rich i-i Its decorations, and solemn suggestiveness in all its psrt, its general effect was pooulsrly and lastiiigly impressive. It was built in the canopy form, on ponderous trucks, and topptd with a roof sloping to and ending in a ,iarllelograin, on wllicb. rested tho typical black nm. Tne lowest portion nearest the grom.d was trimmed in heavy black breat'cloth. Edged af tho bottom was a m.issive black fringe and heavy cord. Behind a heavy crpe hanging, sot off with a silver lriiigo. were barely viBiblothestars and ttiip- a of flu- uatiouiil embleig. The b'adt surfceu aetiye was fostunnad with immortelles, hi'e the three steps leading up to the floor ol tbe ear wcro edgtd with white, awl the corner moldings covered wit'i heavy black velvet. The eacafalqro proper, r stmg on Oio floor, was trimmed with htavy vertical folds of llnck broadtlotli. the prevailing material throughout, ctU-.cd at Ihe Uip w.th silver fringe, ai d si t off with heavy clusters of black crapo. A white tU'ap wai'sttaihcd tc each of the four sides to hold the ;olliu in place, A black column, trimmed in bands of white, roso from each of tho four corners of the car, and was nupph mer.tcd by a drape 1 battleflag carried through the dust and Wood and heat of the day at f'hiriiaiiiaiiga. from the upper step roso the "Sgyptinp eoliinins, throe on a side, i;r il l in all, suppoiting tho canopy, i.nd trimmed with immorte.les and htavy vertical folds of Hack. Black festoons, edged with silver, trimmed with rot-Mtes slid nittatlis of immortelles, depended from the root on the outer surface. The ioof was cove-red with folds of heavy black, trimmed with white rosel c: slid wreaths of immortelles, with a rayed ceiling of red, white and blue on the backgiom-.d. Back andnhito plumes ornamented the roof and surrounded the urn, which rested on the top, while eight small wreaths of immortelles were attached to the id a. Home idea of the massive character of the ccr can Do obtained from a t;tniaeut of i's dimension.!. Tlie distanco from the ground 1.0 the urn was twenty le t, while tho platform itself liMSHUied eight by sixteen feet, and the biei twenty-eijdit inches by seven feet. Four black guy-ropes depmded from the corner posts, aud weir held by bh ek grooms, who were thus en

abled to steady the motion of tne car over rough places, and prevent its swaying to and fro cu its journey lo the cemetery. Twelve ooal-alack hoiisesj fonr abreast, and covered 'with broadcloth neck and body oloths, edged with silver fringe, drew the somber object. Black and white plttmoa waved from their heads, while a groom at tho head ef each oumc horse controlled its progress by a black-aud-wbito halter-lend. The only incident which occurred el the pavilion was the request of Grar dma Giirficid for a drink of watr. Manyporsom construed this is an indication that the old lad; was faint. Buoh was sot the oase, however. The remains bavhvr been placed in "tho funeral car, the mourners retired from tho pavilion and took their places in the carriages assigned to then), Mrs. Garfield, heavily veiled, entered the Prat one with the dead President's mother, and the boys, Hurry, lames and Abram. CoL Corbin, with Miss ilollie Garfield and young Irwin, entered tho second. The relatives aud friends camo next, followed by the guard of honor, and th'i members of the Cabinet and their nives, oxPresident and Mrs. Hayes, ox-Socretnry Evarts, the Judges of the Supreme Court, the members of the United States Senate and House of Koprofientativos, 0i6 several Stato Kxocutivos and the remaining occupants cf the platform, logo her with tho Society of the Army of the Cumberland, the Mayors of cities, and tho members of various Aldormanii bodies and Uie numerous local committees, Tlie funeral-car proceed id beyond the City Hall on Superior street, aud stopped until the first carriage started. As tho remaining carriages followed up, it continued its -Joaruoy until it reached Erie street and the massive arch at that point. Turning ialo Euclid avenue, famous as pei haps the handsomest in tho world, and decorated as it probably never will bo again, with all the badges of ntouin'ng and insignia of grief, it joined in the procession of military organizations, Ha ionio societies and ill the numerous civic anil other organizations, and slowly wended its vay, to the sound of funeral dir&ee, to the cemetery flyo miles away. Though tho several divisions dropped rather promptly and gntoufully into line, it soon became too painfully apparent tbat there was altogether too much of tho profession, and yet not a few societies were erowdeci out. owing to their late and unoxpocted arrival, or loft with the cold couHolation of being privileged to drop in at the rear, when it was morally impossible for them evor to reach the jemetory, if they stayed there unfit the head bad arrived at like View, witnessed tho obso-qnios-aud should be ready to turn round and como noma. As a matter of fact, the tail of tlie procession rested down town while the head was af: the cemetorVj while, if every society and club which wanted to march had persisted in doing so, tho i rjcossion wonld have lioen swollen to unreasonable proportions, Tho military pri st nt"d a magnificent scone. The co until was headed by that veteran volunteor organization, the Boston Fnsileers, who bad traveled from Massacl.usct s iu order to pay a last trihut to their d . ceased comrade by parQoipatiug in the ols .qnio. Air'v.dnt the remebiry, tho pal'-bcarers alighted and Look their positions on o ther tide nf the cirjiot walk to the vault, while tho two oldest sons of the dead President, Harry and James, joined those on tlio right in company with tbn inevitable and t mmnroneit lloekweu aud Hwnini, Mrs, Garfield sat at her carriage window, her veil roloovod, and her tearless even rovcaling be mental fstinggle she wai midoroing in her determination to bear up bravely under her loi.d of grief. Tho steps to tho vault were carpotod. with Bowers, and o:j either sido of the entrance wore an anchor of tuberoses and across, while amilax and ovcrgnons wore festooned above. A heavy, block canopy wai stretched over tho steps from which the exoreiaes wem to be conducted.

At 8:30 o'clock the procession entered Oio gateway, which was arc-bed. over with block, witb appropriate inscriptions. In the keystone were the words ' Come to test." On one side wore tho words, ''Lay him to rest whom wo liave learned lo love ;" on the other, " lay bioi to roBt whom we have learnt d to trust." A massive cross of evergreens swung fro on ihe renter of the arch. Tho Vnited t tates Marino Hand, continuing (he sweet, mournful strains it had kept up during (lie entire march, entered first. Then craie the "forest City Troop, of Clevi land, which was the escort of the- President to his inauguration. Behind it came the f mural ear, with its escorl of twelve United States artillerymen, followtd by a ba tahon of Knights TrnipW and theCleveland Grave. The mourners' carrir.ges anil those containing the guard of honor comprised all of the procession that entered Uie grounds. Tno cavalry hahod at tto vault and drew nu in Hue, faciiisj it with Bshers presented. The car drew up in fn lit, with the moni'iiors earri'giw and those of the Cabinet behind. The band played "Nearer My God to Thee" as the military escort lifted the coffin from the car inc. carried it into tho vault, the local Committee of Ueception, Secretary Blaine, Marshal Heiny and one or two peivonal friends sundiug '.it either sido of tho entrance. Nona of tlio President's family except two of tho btys left the carriages during tlie exercises, which occupied lm than half an hour. Di'. J. H.

The exercises closed wit h the benediction by President Hinsdeile, of Hiram Colloge, who wasintrxluoed by Dr. Bobison. Mr. iliui dale said : "O God! tho sad experience of this day

The last word bad no sooner died on his lips than those in the immediate proximity of the vault pnssed forward and gathered up handful of flowew aud hemlock twigs as precious mcnieutoe-i of tbo solemn soene. A liirge rose, a geranium and a sprig of hemlock woro carried to Mrs. Garliold, who pressed them to her lips and treasured tbvin as a pricei'sss boon. The genoral crowd broke in about ibis tune, and iu tai time than it takes to tell it the rich carpet of flowers and sprigs had almost vanished, and wis being carried off in pieces by tbo rcliehunttm, A guard was left at the vault, the procession returned, and in a few moments more the lino of mourners was wending its tray back to the citv, tho Cabinet oflicsrs slopping at the Euclid Avenue Station, where they took their special train back to Washington, Mrs. GarfioM returning to tlio residenco of Mrs. James Mason, where she remi ined until ihe following day, when sie embarked on. tbo saddest journey of all, the tiip to her once happy Mentor home. II is estimated that f (10,000 people were in the i-trot'ls of Cleveland during the progress of the tiiieral procession, and that from 100,000 o ISO.O .'O of these wore straiwers. Some of the dj icent towns were almost depopulated. At Mrs. GarSeld's suggestion, the casket contain ng tho inte President will be inclosed in an iron ewe. Then a cement wall will be built around 'this of sufficient ttieugth to resist all attempts to remove the body, and of dimensions enough to form the foundation for the proponed monument. Tio Mayor of the city detailed a pol-ee force to lie on duty continually i.nt.l the final interment.

All over the United Staffs, in Canada and in many parts of Grout Britain, business was wholly suspended, rilgious services were held in the churches in the morning and were very largely attended. In the' evening there were meetings in halls and churches, at which the great public services of tho illustrious dead wore referred to, and in which his character was fittingly eulogized. Tho funeral procession in Chicago was the largest nd, all considered, tho mot i remarkable which ever occurred iu that c.ty. It consisted of ill tho military organizations, all the iirinciiial Secret bodies, the postoftico aud other Governmental and municipal (ulcers nd subordinates, national and benevolent saoicties, numbering not loss than 15,000 men, and by some estimated at twice that number.

PRESIDENT ARTHUR.

H Takes tlie tath olOfrirent Waslf ingtoii, mid Dcttvero a, Short Innugurnl. As the result jof a conference between several of the highest Government officials, the oath of office was administered to President Arthur by Chief Justice Waite, in the marble room of tbo Capitol in Washington, noon of Thursday, Sept. 22. Among those present were ex-President Hayes, Senator Shot-man, Bear Admiral Nichols, Gen. Grant and Hannibal Hamlin, Within afew momenta after taking the oath ot otlieo President Arthrr loosened the upper button of his coat, took from the inside-pocket a small roll ooutaiiiiug bis address, which was written upon note paper, and proceeded to road ais inaugural address, which is as follows : For the fourth time in the history of the republic its Chief Mag strafe has been removed by death. All hearts are filled with gikj.' and horror at tho hideous crime which has darkened ' our land, sad the memory of tue murdered President, his protracted sufferings, his unyielding fortitude, the example and i enlevements of his life, and the pathos of his death, will forever illumine tho pages of our history. "For tho fourth time the officer elected by the people, and ordained by tho constitution to fill tho vacancy so created, is called to assume the executive cbair. The wisdom of our fathers, foreseeing even the most dire possibilities, made sure that tbo Government should never be imperiled because of the uncertainty of human lif e. Men may die, but the fabrics of onr free institutions remain unshaken. Mo higher or more assuring proof xmld exist of the strength f.nd permauouoy of popular government than the fact that, though tho chosen of tlio people lie stricken down, Ins constitutional successor is iMSMOfu'.lyiustallcd without shock or strain, except the sorrow wh ch mourns tue bereavement. Alltut noble aspirations of my lamented predecessor, which found expression in his life; the measures devised and suggested during his brief administration to correct abuses and enforce economy; to advance the prosperity and promoto tho general welfare : to insure doinestio security, and maiu-

1 tain friendly and honorable relations with

the nations of the earth, will be garnered iu the hearts of the people, aud it will be my earnest endeavor to profit, and to see that tho nation shall profit, by Lis example and experience, Prosperity blesses our country; our fiscal policy, fixed by law, is well grounded and generally approved. No threatening issue mars our foreign intercourse, and tho wisdom, integrity and thrift of our people may bo trusted to continue undisturbed tho present assured career of peace, fraternity and welfare. Tlie gloom and anxiety which have enshrouded the country must make repose especially welcome now. No demand for -speedy leghdaton has been heard; no adequate occasion is apparent for an unusaal session of Congress. The constitution di linos the functions and powers of the Executive as clearly as those of either of the other departments of tho Government, and he must answer for the just exercise of tho cUscretion it permits, aud the performance of tho du:ies it imposes. Summoned to these hieh duties and responsibilities, and profoundIt conscious of their magnitude and gravity, I assume the trust imposed by the couptil ation, relying for aid ou divine guidance, and tho virtue, patriotism and intelligence Of the American people." The occasion will long be remembered as one of gre.at historic interest. There were present ouo Presiient taking tho oath of office, two cxPrtsidtnts, and an ex-Vice President among ihe spectators, while but a few feet c.-.ay there was lyiug in state tho remains of the late Chief Magistrate. At tcr tho reading was over, which occupied less than five minmea, all the persons prosont advanced aud shook hands with the President, ant immediately tho party mingled in general conversation. All persons soon retired except the President and Cabinet, whereupon tho doors were closed and they proceeded to hold their formal consultation. The most important matter personally to the Cabinet officers was attended to without delay, aud after soma rrelimhwics each handed his resignation to the President. President Arthur gavo no imiaiition as to the course he jut nded to pursue. There was some discussion relative to the funeral arrangements. The Cabinet agreed that it would be best for tho President to remain at tho capital ani not expose himself to tho dangers of travel while his life only stood between a lawful head of tlio Government and possible confusion. In deference to this opinion tho President decided not to accompany the funeral party to CK'vcland. The question of most importance io the public was that, of a special session of the Senate, it haviug already been announced in the President's address that no extra session of Congress wonld bo called. The propriety of convening the Senate was admitted by all tho Cabinet, bat a tiiuylo opinion ou tbo subject being expressed. It was agreed that it wan an urgent necessity lo bave a Pnidtut of tho Ke.iiftto aa soon as nussilile. in order Hint thn

I country might not bo left withont an executive

head in caso ot tue ueatu or tne l'resiaeiit or the United States. Tho now President, shortly af tor his formal induction intc office, issued a proclamation designating Monday. Sept. 28 tho day set apart for the burial of the lamented Girtield as a day c f humi'iatiou and mourning, and recommending "all. people to assemble on that day in their respectivo placeB of eUvino worship, t'icre to render alike their tribute of sorrowful s lbmissiou to tbo will of Almighty Got!, aud lo their reverence and love for the memory and character of our late Chief Magistrate.

Something About Rubber. Thero are tons of thousands of thofisands of people probably who do not know where India rubber, as it is called, comes from, or from what it is derived. As it appean. iu mtuiufacturcd goods, cloaks, overcoats, overshoes, and a multitude of eibjects too numerous to mention, as tlie auctioneers sty, it bears very little resemblance to ths rubber as it originally appears, Th rubber tree grows in immerse forest in Colombia and other parts of Central America, and properly cared f. aud cultivated could supply the world with rubber, but the rubber hunters are as careless and prodigal as our lumbermen, oc.tting down at cl wasting the trees, so that now they have to go considerable! distanoes from the rivers to And them, and are pat t3 some hardship and expense to brmg their products to market, bringing it back through swamps and over mountains, on theit shoulders. If they tapped the trees as our furmors do the maple is the spring, collecting the sap, the trees would yield year after year a handsome return. But in their eagerness to gel. all the sap the tree contains, they firs', girdle all they find near their camps, us a mark of proprietorship, and thea hack the bark as high as they can reach with a maeliile or ax, the outs being made iu tho form of &.V. . As the sap exudes it is collected Mid put in a bole elug in the ground-near the can-p. After the sap, or milk, as it is somctiineti ealied from its whiteness,, ceases to ej;udo, they chop down (lie tree and gash its throughout the euiiro length. That hni&hes the tree? in every region where camps are located, aud tho hunters havo to move on to new spoils, but not until they have treated the collucte'-d sap. Hard sop and other substaueses are used to coagulate the milk, but a water will not mix with the rubber, the coagulated substance appears full of Bniall wills containing -water, and when that is expressed there remain innumerable small holes in tlio rubber. It appears to be an eaiy matter to treat the milk so that it can be made homogeneous, clear and transparent as amber. It is so done in Para, and occasionally in (Jolombio, but the hunters are as indifferent to tho quality of the rubber as they are to the protection and cultivation of the trees that produce it j ar.d so they put upon tlie market a crude materinl of iuferior value. The Colombian Government has laws and rcgn'atiouH against the destruction of the rubber treejs, t ufc they are not enforced, and little attention is paid to them. But bye-and-byo their Government will wake up to tlie fact that one of the most valuable souivscs of its limited revenue is drying up, aud that ruoner trees are becoming ail scarce ns good timber in the Upper Alioghany. Forl tiuateky. the rubber tree is easy of eultiviiti u and a rapid grower. In three or fonr years from the pi nut i tig of the seed the trunk attiinn a eliamotor of eight Ui ten inches, auc". gives returns to the cultivator sooner than almost any other tree. The planting of rubber plantations along the rivers where it i indigenous, and has lies n most abundant, will some day ben. huge and lucra'tive industry. duetunati Commercial, Hott Prices At e Fixed. There is ti discussion among some Iowa papers whether or not Liverpool fixes the price of Amercan grain. Certainly Liverpool fixes the price of what American grain it buy?.. So docs Glasgow. There may bo ' no relation at all between the price of wheat in Chicago and New Xoik and the prico at Liverpool. Then, agairj, tli3 market may be such that- thero will be a great intimacy between the price of u lieat in the Amer-ie-au and English ni:u'ket. Liverpool fixes the price of A- aerican wheat in this general sense that the price of commodities between all countries that have an interchangeable v.-ade feud to an equilibrium. And, as Liverpool is the great rnarkvl exchange of Ohrif-tendoin, the fquilibriuni in prices linds its usual mercantile expression there. Putt the price is made not, by Liverpool, but by tlie whole area of supply aud demand. If Liverpool raiscaloulates and fixes a wrong prico for itnoli, New York and Chicago would net be governed by it, but would tlx what would seem to then; a right price. That will cont ol price as to all that go to New York or Chicago market. And it may be above or below the Liver, -oor price. But it is trie that sooner or -later, althoujrh Nw York and Chicago may fix the piicoof gram above or bslow the Liverpoo price, the price in t.ll threo places vill gravitate to a uniformity. Not, wei repeat, because Liverpool makes the price for New York and Chicago, but because it indicates that equilibrium between supply and demanci which iuos price iu Liverpool, New York, Chicago and everywhere.

THE IAWS OF STORMS. lufrnialiti ot tlie Approach af Cyclone. (I-rom fJf rmldci co (It. I.) Tress. The cyclone has a small calm spot ir the center, around it hich the wind revolves with it ti-emendous velocity, Iocreasing us ihe center is left tienbid. The cyclone has aliio a forward movement, just a Um earth travels in its orbit while revolving on its center. The "cubits" of the ej clones that reach ras coasts ate generally within certain wt.llkt.own Hmitu, althot.gh erratio instances have occurred where they follower, a highly exceptional track. As a ride tlwy c tue ftr.m about latitude 10 degree.-. 20 dt grees north, and are either th-flt-eted noithwarci by tho windward islands, or else they pass these islaida and sweep up Uio Caribbean nea, through the Gulf of Mexico, and thtuce inland, where they generally lose t ieir strength and are dissipated. Others sweep aloug the nccrthern coast of Son Domingo and Cuba as for as the Flo -ids coast, turn north bu fur as Cape Hatterns, and then ejurve back northeastward, traveling as fur as Europe at tines. Bometimes oven they cross the Pe ainftila of Florida, take a sweep northward inland, and come out to sea again in latitude 35 dog-zees to 10 degrees north. The greatest force of a eryclone is nearest the calm spot hi the center, ths spot having a diameter cf from two to Ave miles. The influer ce of the storm may ext end over a tliaroeter rarely less than 250 miles, and sometimes as great at: 400 miles. At t :ie extreme outer edge of the cyclnne the force of the wind may be only moderate, but it will be governed by the same, laws and maiked by the samo phenomena att at a point nearer the center, differing wily in degree. The suited of tho revolution varies, even, at the central point, bnt it is believed that 100 miles an hour "ana been known to have been reached. The forward motion is also .variable in speed, the dis'ant covered in jy,doy ran giias from 100 fc -100 miles. It is desinxblo to keep at t distance from the center, and it is possible for a vessel to take such adivntag of a cyclone as to carry a fair wind, net too boisterous, for several days in its tnflu-e-iee, Tho object tif every vessel is to avoid the dangeroas field of the cyclone at the least cost oi time and distance. In iho southern h emisphere the direo lion of the rotation of the wind :j5 the same as that of tti3 hands of a vatch, from left tc right ; whilo in the northern hemisphere tho direction w reversed, This rule h- invariable. The indications which denote the approach of a cyclone are a rapid'y falling barometer, a titeadily shifting wind, iusreasing in. force, and a certain appearance of the sky ai,d sea which can be leaj'ned only by experience. When a fteaman is satisfied that

he is within the influence of a cyclone, his lirst care should be to learn tho bearing of its center and the direction in which it is traveling. In the northern Lemisphero let him face the wind, and the center will boar just flOdegree. to the right, He must then determine whether he is on the right hand or 'tho kit-hand side of the storm's forward movsment, and this can be teamed by the following rule : Watch the wind ; if th shifts occur from north te- east, east to south, south to wirst, or west to north, jou are ou the right-hand side of the .-Uorm'e course; if they occur from north to west, west to south, south to rust, or east to north, you lire on the left-hand side. This mlo is invariable, except; in the unusual instance of a steamer i-uuning in tho sane general direction an the cyclone, ntiel at a higher speed. Uaviug (letermired that he is within a cyclone's influence, aud liatiug leavied on 'which i-ide of ibi course he is. a Captain should at once put his ship on that course which Trill carry him an jy from the center, and keep that course until he has evidently escaped tho he.avient wind, or until (us may be ossible) ho finds thathenmst " .ie to.' In "'lying to" he must a lopt this; invariable mle. : If on the lelt-hauil t.itle of Uio cyclone's eouit-.o "li to" on the port tack V if on the right-Lund sidf " lie to" ou the starboard 'tack. Every shilt of find will then draw aft instead of cntohing the ship abiiok, and. it the prevfow rule has been complied with, the Car tain will Itavn done, all tha is possible for Ihb shin's saf.'tv. Dunns the cyclone

The Camel and the- Needle's Eye. The passage from th e New Testament, ' It is easier for a. caniel," etc., has perplexed many good men, who have read it literally. In Oriental cities there are in the large gatai small and very low apertures, called metaphorically '' ueed'.ts' eyes," just as we talk of windows on shipboard as " bull's eyes." These entrances are too narrow for a camel to pas through them in tho ordinary manner, or even if loaded. When a loaded camel has to pass through one of these entrances, it kneels down, its load is removed and then it shuttles through on its knots. "-Yesterday," writes Lady Duff G-orilonfrom Cairo, " Isawa camel go through the eyo of a needle, thnt is, the low arched door of an inclosuro. Ho must kneel, and bow his head, to creep through ; and t'ius tho rich man must humble himself."

Sew York comes next, with ready 9,00i),000 bushels ; while West Virgiuia and Ohio take the third and fourth places, with 2,(580,000 ttud 2350,000 bushels, r i-speotively.
