PROF. TYNDALL ON RAINBOWS.

The Canae of am Interesting Phenomenon Explained. Lecturing at the Royal Institution on thd above subject, Prof. Tyndall observed that the oldest historical record' of a rainbow was found in the “I do set My bow in the cloud, and 4t shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.” The sublime' conception of the theologian preceded that desire for exact knowledge which was characteristic of the men of science. Whatever the ultimate cause of the rainbow might have been, the proximate cause was physical, and the aim of science had been to refer the rainbow to its physical principles. Progress toward that consummation had been veiy slow. Slowly the ancients mastered tile laws of reflection; still more slowly were the laws of refraction dug from the quarries in which nature had imbedded them. He used that language because the laws were incorporate in nature before they were discovered by men. It was by the scientific genius of the Dutchman Snell that the world obtained in 1621 the first approximate explanation of the rainbow, his discovery having, however, been rendered possible by the observations and measurements of earlier philosophers. The great Descartes completed the solution. There was a certain form of emotion called intellectual pleasure excited by poetry, literature, nature, and art, but he doubted whether there was any pleasure of the intellect more pure and concentrated than that of the scientific man who, looking at a difficulty which had challenged the human mind for ages, saw that difficulty melt before his eyes and become crystallized as a law of nature. Such pleasure must have been that of Descartes when he sueeeeded in uncovering the law which rules the most splendid meteor of our atmosphere. Since Descartes’ time further light had been thrown on the matter by Newton, who found out the secret of the colors of the prisms; by Thomas Young, who, eighty-two year's ago, was appointed Professor of the Royal Society, and who discovered the causes of the rainbow’s supernumerary zones; by Sir George Airey, the late Astronomer Royal, who demonstrated the truth of Prof. Young’s scientific principles by more accurate calculations; and lastly, by the late Prof. Miller, of Cambridge,: and Dr. Caller, of Berlin. Prof. Tyndall described how, in the Alpß, last year, and subsequently at Hindhead, in Hampshire, he had witnessed the rare phenomenon of a white rainbow, caused by reflected light on a misty atmosphere. 1 By clever and amusing experiments the lecturer showed how this remarkable effect might Ire artificially produced, and how, when the moisture in the air was composite, as, for instance, where water spray was mixed with paraffin oil spray, a still more wonderful rainbow resulted, such as was to be seen at almost all times from a famous mountatn in Western China, whither the people flocked from far and near to witness what they called “The glory of Buddha. —London Telegraph.

The Mandrake.

Few flowers have had an earlier or more superstitious reverence than the Mandrake. Solomon speaks of its fragrance, and includes it “among all manner of pleasant fruits.” As a plant of potent power and occult virtues, it is used extensively in Syria at this day. The Arabs call it the “devil’s apple,” the Greeks call it “love apple,” and their women nearly universally wear it as a love charm. Many ceremonies were anciently observed in the gathering of it. Josephus describes the manner of pulling it by tying firmly to its root or stem a dog. It was said to utter a shriek when drawn from the earth, which was fatal to those who heard it; hence the Jews used a dog to gather it, or else carefully closed the orifice of the ear. The singular resemblance to the human form, often observable in its roots, has given it a fame greater than any other plant in all magical pbtions. Among the Rosierucians it was believed to have the power of discovering subterranean treasures. In the fifteenth century it was commonly worn in France and Southern Europe as an amulet, and the powdered root was the celebrated “love powders” of the wise men and women of those days. Even at the present tune it is only pulled in Germany, aftersigning the cross three times over it, and in the Tyrol pieces of the root worn round the neck are believed to protect the wearer from robbers. It retains with us a shadowy remnant of its once great medicinal virtues as an homeopathic pellet to cure rheumatism. It is much easier to change dogmas than svmbols, and it is somewhat remarkable that the death of Baldur, in Norse mythology, is identified with the nativity of, John the Baptist in Christian faith. On this night, in pagan times, all witches were abroad, and the plant known now as St. John’s Wort was dedicated to them. After the introduction of Christianity, the same plant, mingled wi h the cross, was used as a protection against them. The red juice of the plant suggested the blood of the Baptist, and was believed to confer the gift of second sight, and to wrest the secrets of the future from the powers it was supposed to rule. Four centuries ago, in England, it was customary on St John’s Day to build large bonfires, and young men and ■women, wreathed with St. John’s Wort, danced around them, invoking the saint and praying for blessings on the coming yeay. In tine Tyrol it is still put into the shoes to prevent weariness in walking, and in Lorraine there is a decided prejudice against cutting grass for hay until this anniversary.— Floral World.

Curious Laws.

There are some curious customs in Sicily relative to real estate purchase that an' American would not tolerate long. If any man in that country buy an estate—be it house, land, or vine* yard —the neighbor of the purchaser may, for a year afterward, eject him at an advance of price. In vain would the first purchaser give more to the original owner. This law is generally evaded by falsehood. The purchase money is stated, in the articles of agreement,' at a higher sum than has been

agreed upon, in the presence of four witnesses. There is another no less singular law in that country, according to which any man can oblige his neighbour to seU his house, if he will pay him three times its value. The intension of this law was the improvement Of the towns. Ife%'as to encourage the possessors of large houses to purchase the humble homes of the poor. %.

Collecting a Bill.

A citizen who has an office on Monroe avenue has for the last three years been owing a grocery bill. The grocer’s collector called on him over 100 times to secure payment of the debt, but always put off with scfine excuse or other. At one time it was death, another sickness, another time bad luck. and so it went on until it really seemed impossible for the debtor to invent any new pleas. The other day the grocer himself took the bill in his fist and cornered the debtor in his office. “Yes, I know—very sorryv—hand you the money a week from to-day,” was the smiling excuse. “See, here!” said the grocer, as he locked the door and pulled off his coat, “I’ve been figuring on this matter. This bill is for sls. I can give you the 1 ’ worst licking a man ever received, and get off with a fine of $lO. I’ll then give you a receipt for the other five, and the account will be closed. Prepare to be pulverized!” “But suppose I lick you—then what ?” queried the other. “Then there won’t' be any resort to the law, and vou shall have a receipt in full!” • “That seems to be fair, and I’ll do my best,” said the debtor, and at it they went. The grocer expected to get away with him in about a minute, but he was a .deceived man. It wasn’t over three minutes before he was knocked over a chair and rendered hors* de combat. “Is it a receipt in full?” asked the debtor, as he sat astride of the other, and kept both hands fastened in his hair. “She is!” “And you’ll pay me $2 in cash for the broken furniture ?” - “Yes.” - “Then you may get up, and I’ll recommend you to a doctor who’ll fix your broken collar-bone as good as new insideof a week.” The grocer gave him a receipt for the and handed over $2 in cash, and later in the day, when telling the story in his store, he explained: “Gentlemen, I’ve sassed scores of citizens, abused dozens of hackmen, and been aching for three years past for a chance to pulverize some one. it’s worth sl7 to me to know that my grit gives out witli the first round!”— Detroit Free Press.

As to Christians and Fools.

Jenny Lind once went to hear Father Taylor preach in Boston, but the preacher, ignorant of her presence, paid a glowing tribute to her powers of song. As the Swedish nightingale leaned forward with delight, drinking in this unexpected praise, a tall man who sat on the pulpit stairs, began slowly to unwind himself, and when he had done so, Avanted to know whether any one who had died at Miss Lind’s concerts would go to heaven. Father Taylor said: “Sir, a Christian will go to heaven wherever he dies; but a fool will be a fool, even though he be on the pulpit stairs. It would take more grace to sane such a mail than it would take skim milk to feed an elephant. ” —Macon Telegraph.

How to Hake Things Hum.

A smart-stepping citizen of Tennessee was in New York to see about raising money for a proposed railroad line down in bis county, and when asked to explain, he said: “There’s no- explanation about it. This is to be a railroad 200 miles long.” “But about the company?” “Oh, that’s been organized and all the officers elected. ” “What’s the capital ?“ * “Five million dollars. ” “How much stock has been taken?” “ About three hundred dollars’ worth. ” “What —only S3OO worth!” “That’s all, Mister, and if you fellers down here w ill only pitch in and gobble up the rest of it, we’ll go ahead and make things hum.” —Wall Street News.

The Beautiful.

There never was a truer saying than Victor Hugo’s in Les Miserables: “The beautiful is as useful as tfie useful, perhaps more so. ” The beautiful is a powerful influence for good; it teaches the most impressive lessons in a language that all can understand—the language of the human soul. * Its lessons are so plain and forcible, at the same time so charged with feeling, that all, from the least to the greatest, arc affected by them.. Beauty is constantly giving and constantly growing richer ; it is unselfish, yet it demands attention from every one—only to make them better.

An Ingenuous Maiden Speech.

A young lawyer, while making his maiden speech in the Comt House here, in defending a little negro boy for some petty crime, in the midst of an impassioned appeal to' the twelve good and true men exclaimed: “Ah, gentlemen of the jury, you see before you this poor trembling boy-—without father, without mother, without friends, without counsel—” At this point the orator was interrupted by a general titter around the bar, and, to add tb his confusion, the Judge, who was smiling on the bench, added: “Proceed, Brother ——, the court is with you.” —Morganton Mountaineer.

Genius.

Genius borrows nobly. When Shak* speare is charged with debts to his authors, Landor replies, “ Yet he was more original, than bis originals. He breathed upon dead bodies and brought them into life.” Prof. Blount has made some elaborate experiments in Colorado, which prove that the tendency of foreign seed is £o produce- a better grain than domestic seed. It has also been found that wheat loses it gluten by sge, and some varieties in a much greater degree than others.

HEREDITARY TAINTS.

Some Revelations on a Subject Which Concerns the Welfare of the Race and the Happiness: of AU. {Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.] To any one who has studied the laws Of Ufa* and especially those which relate to reproduction, an experience such as we are about to relate will come with special force and interest. The transmission of certain mental traits of prominence, and of certain physical traits of equal prominence, are facts which all acknowledge, but which none, can understand., The father may be distinguished—the son, an imbecile; or, the. parent may be decrepit and unknown, and the child achieve the highest place possible to humanity. But through it all, there will be certain characteristics, which mark the individual as descending from certain ancestors. Too often, indeed, these characteristics are infirmities. These facts were strikingly brought out during a conversation, which a representative cf this paper recently had with Mrs. Carrie D. T. Swift, who is the wife of one of our piost prominent citizens. This lady related that she inherited from her parents certain tendencies, over which she had no control, and which were In the nature of blood difficulties, assuming the form of rheumatism. Her experience can best be described in her own words. To the writer she said: ——— “I felt the beginning of this hereditarytaint many years ago, in vague pains, which seemed to come unaccountably and at uncalled for times. They wore annoying, exhausting, and interfered not only with my duties,- but also totally destroyed my happiness. At first, they would be only transient, appearing for a day or two, and then disappearing; then again they would come in such violent forms, that it was impossible for me to lift a cup to my mouth. Afterwards, my feet and hands swelled so that it was impossible for me to draw on my shoes or gloves without the greatest effort. 1 realized what the difficulty was, but seemed powerless to avert it. I finally became so bad that I was couflned to the house and to my bed most of the time. My joints pained me continuously and my feet swelled to enormous proportions. Knowing that I inherited this tendency, I had about abandoned hope, when I began the use of a remedy, which was recommended to me by a friend as being specially efficient iu cases of a similar kind. To my great gratitude, I found that it relieved me, restored my appetite, and 1 am able to say that now I have gained forty pounds in weight, feel perfectly well, and am in the best, possible condition, owing, wholly, to Warner's Safe Rheumatic Cure, which was the remedy! used".” “No one would ever suspect you had suffered so, Mrs. Swift, to see you marked the reporter, - -■■ ■ *: ‘ That is what all my friends say. Only yesterday, an acquaintance of mine, whom I had not seen for some time, hesitated, before speaking, and apologized by saying, ‘Why, I really did not know you, you have changed so for the better since I last met you; how well you do look.” “Have you any objection to giving the name of the party Who first mentioned this remedy to you?” 7 "Not the slightest. It was Mr. R. H. Furman. the photograidter.” The - newspaper man, after bidding- Mrs. Swift gcod-by, repaired to the photographic rooms of Mr. Furman, when the following conversation ensued: “Have you been a sufferer from rheumatism, Mr. Furman?" “Well, I should think T had.” “For how many years?” “Twelve or fifteen.” “Did you try to cure it?” “Yes. I tried everything, and at last went .to the Hot Springs of Arkansas, and nothing seemed to do ms any good until i tried Warner’s Safe Rheumatic Cure." “And it cured you, did it” •‘Yes, completely.”* “And you can cordially recommend it?” “Yes, indeed, more cordially than anything I have ever known of. It is simply a wonderful medicine. I believe that two-thirds of all -cases, both acute and chronic, could be cured as I was cured by the use of this remedy. In fact, I know a number of persons who have been in the worst possible condition, and are now completely well, wholly through' its use.” The statements above made are from sources the authority of which cannot be questioned. They conclusively prove the value of the preparation named and show that even horeditary traits can be removed by the use of the proper means.

Had a Diamond at Home.

“So you want a position as clerk, do you?” asked the proprietor of the hotel of a dapper young applicant. “Yes, sir.” “Have you had much experience?” “Oh, yes, sir. I have been connected" with a great many of the large hotels, and can give the best of recommendations.” “Well,” said the landlord, “we want a clerk, but ” and he hesitated. “But what?” asked the young man. “l r ou seem to have no diamond breastpin.” “Yes, I have. I’ve got a big one, but I thought I wouldn’t wear it this morning.” “In that case,” said the hotel proprietor, with a relieved look, “the position is at your service. I thought at first you had a diamond yet to purchase, and the way business is going on just flow it might cramp me somewhat.”— Philadelphia Call.

The Lonesomest Man in the World.

Dave Walker, of Anderson’s Store, was one of the best North Carolina soldiers that Lee had. Dave was in Richmond some .time since, and sitting at night in the St. James Hotel, he heard a fellow with a cocked hat on, talking everybody nearly to death about the war. He said he had been a Colonel. Finally he drew a seat up to Dave and asked him if he was in the war. Dave said: “Yes, I was there.” “What position did'you hold?” “None, sir,” said Dave. “I reckon I’m the lonesomest man in the world.” “Ah! why so?” asked the Colonel. “Why, ” said Dave, “I was a private in the war, and I’m the only one I have ever seen since.”— Raleigh News and Observer.

An Important Fact.

The voluntary testimony of thousands established beyond all doubt a fact of vital importance to the sick and debilitated, viz., that Hoetetter's Stomach Bitters is an absolute specific for remittent and intermittent feVer, dyspepsia, constipation, biliousness, mental depression, sleeplessness, chronic diarrhoea, and all diseases of the stomach, liver and bowels. The .unmedicated stimulants nsnally prescribed in these cases only aggravate the symptoms, instead of removing them The Bitters, on the contrary, act as a corrective and invigorant, without producing the unpleasant and dangerous consequences of the old-school practice. The action & mild and soothing to the irritated stomach and bowels, promoting digestion and preventing flatu’ence, nausea, headache and all internal irregularities. A wineglassfol before meals greatly assists digestion. The convalescent may use them with great benefit, as a means of restoring strength and cheerfulness.

TRUE SOLDIERLY GRIT.

Having Passed Through the War, am Old Soldier Conquers One Enemy More. Kindling with enthusiasm as he recalled the great struggle Qf twenty years ago, Capt. J. R- Sanford, of Newark, who raised Company B of Sid N. J. Zouaves, and want to the front with them, said to a transient companion one day last summer: “Yes, I was in eight of the fiercest battles of the war; Seven Pines, Malvern Hill, Savage Station, Missionary Ridge, and Harrison's Landing are in the list. 1 started to go with Sherman to the sea, but my right leg was shattered by a ball at the first engagement after the great march began. After the amputation I was taken twentylive miles and left in a tent at Ringgold, Ga. A rain same on and my tent was flooded. Then I was started On my way to Chattanooga, 2*o miles distant. Jdst try to imagine the horror of that journey to a mam in my condition. For years afterward I was shaken with every exertion. Yes, the doctors prescribe, as/they always will when you ask them, but ] keep my own-'doctor now, and he never opens his mouth.” “A dumb doctor?'' exclaimed the Captain's caller. “ Yes, dumb as a mummy, but smart as lightning; there he is,” pointing to a bottle of DR. DAVID KENNEDY'S FAVORITE REMEDY standingjon a corner shelf; “ I take that. When 1 1 am run down it winds me up; when J am weak it strengthens me; when I am‘oil my food ’ it gives me an appetite; when I am excited it quiets me.” Remember name.

Haid to Believe.

It is hard to believe that a man was cured of a Kidney disease after bis body was swollen as big as a barrel and he had been given up as incurable and lay at death’s door. Yet such a cure was accomplished by KidneyWort in the person of M. M. Devereaux of lonia, Mich., who says: “After thirteen of the best doctors in Detroit had given me up, I was cured by Kidney-Wort, I want every one to know what a boon it is.” Why la it that when a church is burned, nothing is so difficult to save as the organ? Because the fire engine cannot play upon it.

Rescued from Death.

William J. Coughlin, of Somerville, Mass., says: “In the fall of 1876 I was taken with bleeding of lungs followed by a severe cough. I lost my appetite and flesjb and was confined to my bed. In 1877 I was admitted to the hospital. The doctors said I had a hole in my lung as big as a half dollar. Atone time a report went around that I was dead. I gave up hope, but a friend told me of Dr. Wm. Hall’s Balsam for the Lungs. I got a bottle, when, to my surprise, I commenced to get well, and to-day I feel better than for three years.”
