John Jasper Demolishes g, the Copernican System before a d Washington Audience. ^ Tho Rev. John Jasper, of Richmond, tl hud an audiunce of about two huudred poo- ] pie at Liucolu Hall last evening to listen to b his lecture on "The Rotation 9tho Sun." 0 Most of the audicuce were whijte people. b the lecturer ^ took tho platform at 8 o'clock.' He is almost coal black, about five feet teu inches in height, of muscular frame and jaw, has a partly bald head, aud a face covered with a [ short black beard and mustache. Ho was (| dressed i6 black, with a white necktie and w a pair of new shoes.

His voice is clear and sharp, and runs at times into the siiT^-song ^ of the camp meeting or revival, and the 3 "Yes, ah !" "Good, ah !" of the converted I darkey. When apeakiug quietly aud evenly g ho keeps his left hand on his hip, the arm "i akimbo, and saws the air with hia right?? n When excited, however, he ^hnrgce about,^ t and gesticulates rapidly with both hands, ? throws back his head and indulges in one I or two lines of some old-fashioned hyuin, t the better to illustrate his meaning and im- c press upon his hearers what he has to say. I TIIE HYMN. # ? lie commenced by saying that his usual * custom was to begin his lecture with a hymn, but, as he saw there was uo choir 3 present, he would "lino" out a few verses J aud ask the audience to "jiuc" him. lie * read three verses of the hyuin "The Heav- j ings declare thy glory, Lord," and after singing one or two lines by himself, reading 1 them separately, he was joiued by the colored people iu the audience. BROTHER JASTER A BIBLE INTERPRETER. y lie began his lecture by saying that he < was uo grammarian, and had never been to | school iu his life. If auy of the audience ^ expected grammar from him they Would bo , mistaken, but they would get iustead scrip- ] tural truth aud sound argument based ou the llible. It was owing to the grace of j God that he had "arrove" at what he had "arrovc" at. "I conic," he said, "befo' you to prove bofo' I lef you, that the suu du uiovo." The first part of his discourse, he said, might be "scattering," until he got to i the land of Canaan, but "when I docs get lo Puuauu, L certainly will prove dat the suu do move." He then gave AN ACCOUNT OF AMI All AM AND ISAAC : 1 how Abraham was about to "dagger" Issue, ? when the angel called out "hold on Abra- ? ham, thy faith arc tried, thy love are kuowu, . go dar in de bushes and get dat ram what ,, have got his horns tangled, and sacrifice ^ him." For de Lord was a uiau of war. II* f tylo , ll ! J111 ; f 'j Israel's captivity in Egypt and "Phariar's" j wickedness, and the doiugs of Moses and "Aariou" who were sent by the Lord "to tell t Phariar to let my people go." The Lord wanted his people to go, for he was a man V. of war. The plagues were next described. u Whcu the lice eamc, Phariar said to Moses, s, "Take the lice away and I'll let 'cm go; ;l and the Lord took 'cm away, but Phariar [ wouldn't let his people go." Then came s( the flight of the children of Israel and "Phariar" following them, he having "solicited" six hundred chariots, "with captains j, and colonels to command them," and "the n troops on horseback and the infants on footing." Thcu the passage of the lieu Sea f( by Israel aud the destruction of "Phariar," 8 the Lord having senldiis angel to take the a wheels from his chAfWw* 'for ffi^Cotd was ^ a man of war." After some more skirmish- j iug, he cauic to t, T1IK RATTLE OF TIIE ISRAELITES ^lVITII 'l THE G1UKONITES, S whcu Joshua cried uuto the Lord that he f had not time to whip his enemies as the >' suu was going down, oftd S; mand the sun to stand stUfy'nftpfne sun c stood still aud the moon stayed until the , people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. "If the sun don't move what P was the use of Joshua commanding it to stand still? Why didn't lie tell the earth to stand still, if that was the one that H moved ?" Our fathers believed in the r( Bible, and, lie said, we should accept their* S belief.

It is a >' divinely inspired volume, and is to be be- P lieved above all other books, or the words a) and scientific doctrines of all men. "Turn r? to the l'salms," said the lecturer, and you will find, 'Froui the ri.-ing of the sun until t' the going down of the same the Lord's Si name is to bo praised.' If the sum don't have to move, to rise and go down, why, then, I'm mightly mistaken. You will all admit that a' solomon was a wise man, tl; a cultured gentleman and a Christian.? Now ho says in Kcelcsiastes, 1st chapter er f>lh verse : -The sun also uriseth and the Id sun gocth down and hastcth to his place t(J ...I wuuru no arose. i utm t know any gram* cl mar, but I know that while teaching your Ul children in your grammar schools, when, fr you come to the word arise you tell 'em it} b( means to git up, not to lie down. You also\te tell 'em that to go down is also a movin' L'b action. I ant sho' no one will say that has- J? teth don't mean movin.' Therefore, taking dat verse from Solomon and do meaning of ta dc words in it, if dc sun don't move then i' my name ain't Jasper !" (triumphantly.)? lie <|noted a number of similar passages w from the < )ld Testament, always winding up " with sc "Til Kit WORE TilK SUN DO MOVK." w Again he said: "You get up in the at inorning ntid see the sun rise ; ynu eoc it at B?eaiesgegis-m.'L; hbwi iovo up abovo your head, aud you sco it :t behind the western hills, if the sun ou't move, then you cau call Jasper a liar." l gentleman in KicLmond had told hiui lat the earth moved instoad of the suu.? lo asked him how.

It was one of the first and tnost knotty physiological problems which presented itself to our youthful mind, why our youug sister, wbeu she tried to throw u snowball at us, almost iuvariubly sent it eureeuing over the top of the house, while we, in turn, could pop her in the ear almost ad^u^^^if^^^cflSr^nntHion of naturcF in our behalf against our sister; and it may bo that wo improved the opportunity to rake her lore and aft whenever she came within liring distauoc. lint that is ueither here nor there, As the time passed slowly on and we increased our stock of observation, we saw the other follows' sister's la* borod under about the same disadvantages that ours did, in the matter of throwiug any kiud of missile. Why this uiaiked and unmistakable .difference existed wo never learned, uutil, at a somewhat advanced period, we looked into a book of physiology, and learned that the clavicle, or collar bone, in the anatomy of a female is some iuches longer and some degree lower down than in the masculine frame. This long, crooked awkward bouc interferes with the full and free actiou of the shoulder, and tbkt'a the r??s^n .why girls, cannot throw a "stone. Tmrd?ITgG OP'tniC soK <*T " thing is still unexplained to our entire satisfaction. We have developed a pet theory of our own, however, that an allwiso and beneficent providence, foreseeing that there would be rolling-pins, aud stovehooks und pot-lids, aud hot water in the world, act the woman's clavicle down a hitch or two for tho safety of man. It's lucky for all of us that Women cannot throw stones. ? ??* * Jones remarks on frequent cases of ambiguity in expression, as when ft maa said he saw a lady "sewing with n Roman uose " Another rcmarkod.
