[The Continent.] The theory of cycles, as applied to the phenomena of nature, has gained as adherents all scientific persons of any standing, and numbers among its disciples, xre believe, a great many orthodox theoloerians. Indeed, there is good scriptural authority for the belief that in a general way "it never rains but it poars," or, in other words, that the material universe moves in circles, and events repeat themselves in groups at certain intervals, not as yet thoroughly understood by mankind, but which are probably regulated by 1 o rrrc* +l?fl ooiwo-f m fl.V sooner or * later be unlocked by science. This is forcibly brought to mind by the events of the past five or six years. Within that period the earth appears to have been especially subject to internal disturbances. Volcanoes^ long silent have again given signs of activity, and some of them have burst into fierce eruption. Something like a score , of new volcanoes have been reported, and in the straits of Snnda a sinsrle dav witnessed the appearance of a dozen or more.. These phenomena have been preceded, accompanied and followed by the most alarming terrestrial disturbances. To-day it is Asia Minor, yesterday it was Java, the day before it was Jschia ; and in all cases there has been fearful loss of life and universal terror. In. the southern hemisphere, too, fchfirA TiftVA hpft-n " atmosnlieric effects, the sun ' apparently shining through a veil of blue or green, and coloring all things with a strange, aweinspiring light. Doubtless this last phenomenon is due to volcanic eruptions in remote South American regions, accounts of which have not as yet reached the telegraph lines. It is a little remarkable that while these disturbances are beyond the reach of human forecast, the highest civilization seems to have centred in terrestrial belts which have not been subject to upheaval within > T\ '/**? recent geologic periods. x rimce, *jr?xrnany, England .and the United States are, for the most part, outsida of the earthquake belt, so far as its limits are at present defined. It is not reassuring, however, to know that we > are probably passing through* a period of terrestrial disturbance, which may not reach its maximum without giving lis all a taste of its power. .This earth of ours runs so smoothly along its elliptical track, performs its own mechanical functions ordinarily with such perfection, that it is narci .to .realize now sman a mmg, comparatively-considered, may throw the machinery out of gear. There are unknown forces imprisoned within its surface, which now and then give us a hint of their existence, and there are' unnamed extinct suns drifting about through space, on whose bulk the wrecked .earth , would barely make a hillock. It is well enough for us afc times to remember tliese conditions, and reflect how utterly insignificant is our home and its belongings in comparison with the universe of which we Jorrn a part. Too 31uoIi iicslc ror the Words. [New York News.] A ludicrous scene was witnessed some years ago in a country church in Scotland. The precentor was a burly fallow, who followed the plow during the ;week, and whose only recommendation for the post of psalmody-leader was the possession of powerful lungs. The 'paraphase, "Ho! ye that thirst," had ;been chosen, and the bucolic precentor elected to sing it to the music, of the "Old C"?a common-metre hymn to a 'long-metre tune. He began with stentorian stolidity, never dreaming of the metrical precipice that lay immediately before ham. The first line, "Ho! iye that thirst, approach the 'spring," passed off without mishap. Then came the second line, Where living waters flow." No sooner had the unfortunate precentor reached the last word that he stood aghast at the fact that there was more music but no more words! With the despairing look of a drowning man catching at a straw, he cast liis eyes imploringly from side to side, prolonging the vowel-sound of the last word into two groans of dismay, to the remaining notes of the line?"flow? oh!?oh!" Thereupon he collapsed into liis seat with the air of a betrayed and deeply injured -man, amid the audible titters of the rural congregation:' ; ?. *; ~ g A I>arln2 >?cIioolxeaclier.

School TeacherS' Pay in Switzerland. ; : [St. Louis Globe-Democrat.] There is a great complaint in Switzerland about the inadequacy of the sala ries paid to public school teachers. The uamber of teachers employed in the Swiss cantons is about 5,S00, and their average compensation is $280 a year, .In the Talois the rate is not over*$S5?the lowest paid. In some of the primitive cantons teachers are provided with fuel and lodgings and from May to September, when the children - " ' - -- n. . n are watclnng tne cattle on tae .oaps, they earn a little money, in other-ways; but even with all these helps many teachers are wretchedly poor; they live in miserable hovels, eat the coarsest food, and if they have families can hardly keep body and soul together.

A & lie* -3 4 : ^ Home's Festival of the Dead. [St. Louis'G-lobe-Democrat.] , The first week in November, begin- ; ning witfc Ail aamts juav, is ceieoratea ill Kome as a "Festival of the Dead." There is nothing mournful about .the custom. People go the cemeteries laughing and talking as if they were in a public promenade, and the various tombs, cliapels and vaults are visited with as much curiosity as any exhibition of -works of art. Before 1870 the "Festival of the Dead" was observed with more pomp than now. At break of day cannon were fired, and the Pontifical banner was unfurled. Later the pope celebrated mass in the Sistine chapel, and at night "sacred" representations of scriptural scenes were given in various cemeteries. These performances, of course, -were reminiscences of the "mysteries" that were celebrated during the middle ages, and also of tho dances of pagan origin once performed in the cemeteries, called the "Dances of the Dead." The loss of the no-ne's temporal t>ower put an end to ** - 4T * * these doings. One singular custom of pagan origin, however, still holds on. The ancient Greeks and Romans, it is said, used to eat a mess'of beans over the graves of their dead, in order to drive away evil spirits from the neighborhood. Some i have it that the Festival for the Dead was J once kept in the spring, when beans | were young and generally eaten. When the memorial day was transferred from spring to autumn, it would seem, the custom of eating beans was still continued, but dried ones had to be substituted for fresh. At present no real beans are eaten, but only imitation ones, of sugar or chocolate. Biscuits made in the shape of human bones are eaten also during this commemoration week. Ilerr Krnpp and Hia Gun Factory. [Chicago Tribune.] Herr Alfred Krupp, the proprietor of the great steel-works, at Eisen, Germany, where the guns which bear his name are manufactured, employs 20,000 men, who operate 1,541 furnaces, 439 3team boilers, 450 steam engines, and 1,622 machines for working iron. Besides being the owner of the works at Eisen, he is the owner of 547 mines in various parts of Germany. His entiro possessions are said to be worth $40,000,000. He is described as a tall and rather stern'-locking man, with sloping shoulders, a long neck, and full white beard, hiding a sensitive mouth, and a face narrow at the jaw and broadening above the thiiu well-shaped nose. His dark eye is kefcn and penetrating, his forehead expansive. He is : delicate, nervous and intellectual, and looks like a clergyman..

Military Bridge Buildins'. [Chicago Tiiues.] Among the military maneuvers in Enroi.a this season has been bridge building at Presbm-g by a battalion of Austrian pioneers (engineers), assisted by 293 reservists. At tlio placo chosen the Danube is 369 metres broad, with maximum depths of seven metres, and the velocity of the current is more than four miles an hour. Bridges of different kinds, formed both by pontoons or j boats and rafts, were thrown across on succeeding days. Openings were made on some occasions for ships to pass, and J closed again in the usual way by swing- : ing a part of the bridge back again to >. its place. Slight bridges were con-' structed for light' traffic and stronger : for heavier carriages. Sometimes the ; bridge was made in the common way, bv addinsr uontoon to Dontoon: some-! times rafts were first constructed, then ! swung into their places and fixed there. I On one occasion the bridge was partly ! built with the ordinary military means ; and partly with material found on the j spot.

The opening for ships to pass , was made in two minutes and a half and closed in three minutes and a half. , Xiisson.

The Assyrian bas ! a lion's body with wings, a scaly neck j and a sort of dragon's bead with horns: j The Cingalese satan has two heads -with i tusks, fonr arms, sits on a colt, and has j venomous snakes climbing all over him. ! The French is the first of the old Devils j to exhibit the combined traits so ; familiar to us now. He has horns, the j ears of an ass, a goat's tail and rooster's claws, but his body and head are human, with bat's -wings growing from the j shoulder.

By Landseer's time, however, the j I artist had elevated liim to a quite gen-1 ! teel sore of person, with a sardonic leer, j I but good clothes and an unblemished | ! person. Landseer, it-must be explained, ' ! once made ten etchings. called "The ' ' Devil's Walk," which are very rare and i | valuable. The most industrious and ; { extensive of all artistic glorifiers of his j i Satanic Majesty, however, has been; i George Cruikshank.
