John Jasper, of Richmond, | ad an audience of about two hundred poolc at Lincoln Nail last eveniu" to listen to ] lis lecture on "The Rotation ot the Sun." , lost of the audience were wh^Lo people. | the lecturer ook the platform at S o'clock. lie is nlnost coal black, about five feet tcu inches u height, of muscular frame and jaw, has a artly bald head, and a face covered with a hurt black beard and mustache. He was tressed in black, with a white necktie and , pair of new shoes. His years arc about , t3. The chain to his watch got loose from he upper button hole of his vest, when he lecamc excited in his discourse, and danged wildly around his stomach us lie rushed ' roui one siue 01 tne singe to the other.? j lis delivery is good, though somcwhut fnst, lid he soiuctimes mouths his words. His Lialcct is marked, llis voice is clear and harp, and runs at times into the sing-song >f the catnp meeting or revival, and the 'Yes, ah !" "Good, ah !" of the converted larkcy. When speaking quietly and evenly : 10 keeps his left hand ou his hip, the arm ikiinbo, and saws tho air with his right,? When excited, however, he ^hnrgee abot?t,j md gesticulates rapidly with both hands, hrows back his head and indulges in one >r two lines of some old-fashioned hyum, lie better to illustrate his meaning and impress upon his hearers what he has to say. TIIK HYMN, lie commenced by saying that his usual :ustoni was to begin his lecture with a lymn, but, as he saw there was ho choir ircsent, he would "line" out a few verses md ask the audience to "jiuc" him. lie cad three verses of the hymn "The Ileavngs declare thy glory, Lord," and after ungiug cue or two Hues by himself, reading .hem separately, ho was joiued by the coljred people iu the audience. UKOTIIKIt J ASTER A HI 11 EE INTERPRETER. lie began his lecture by saying that he ivas no grammarian, and had never been to ichuul in his life. If auy of the audience expected craunrmr front him tlioy would bo mistaken, but they would get iustead scrip1 1 A ?. - .1. . - 1 * * 11 luiiii iruiu auu souna argument based ou the lliblc. It was owing to the grace of God that ho had "arrove" at what he had 'arrove" at. "I come," he said, "befo' you Lo prove bofo' 1 lef you, that tho sun do movo." The first part of his discourse, he said, might be ' scattering," until ho got to the land of Canaan, but -when I docs get lo Canaan, 1 certainly will prove dat the sun lo naive." He then gave \ N ACCOUNT OK AUK AH AM AND ISAAC : liow Abraham was about to "dagger" Issue, when the angel called out "hold on Abraham, thy faith arc tried, thy lo ;c are kuowu, ^o dar in de bushes and get dat ram what have got his horns tangled, and sacrifice lini." For de Lord was a man of war. Ua in o.mn Israel's captivity in Egypt and "l'hariar's" wickedness, and tlie doings of Moses and Aarion" who were sent by the Lord "to tell I'hariar to let my people go." The Lord wanted his people to go, for lie was a man >f war. The plagues were next described. IVlieu the lice came, I'hariar said to Moses, Take the lice away and I'll let 'cm go; ind the Lord took 'cui away, but I'hariar vouldn't let his people go." Then came he flight of the children of Israel and I'hariar" following them, he having "soliritcd" six hundred chariots, "with captains nd colonels to command them," and "the loops on horseback and the infants oil footng." Then the passage of the lieu Sea jy Israel and the destruction of "I'hariar," lie Lord having sent.his angel to Like the wheels from his ehittfWbV-^for tW'Lotd was i man of war." After some more skirmish ng, ue cauic to [TIE JIATTLK OF THE ISRAELITES .WITH THE OI REUNITES, vheu Joshua cried uuto the Lord that he had not time to whip his enemies ss 'he tun was goiug down, aud tomnand the sun to staod stiU; inatne sun itood still and the moon stayed until the icople had avenged themselves upon their snemies. "if the sun don't move what vas the use of Joshua commanding it to itand still? Why didn't he tell the earth 0 stand still, if that was the one that noved ?" Our fathers believed in the^ IJiblo, and, he said, we should accept their* iclicf. The Bible is recognized .throujjh?ut the land. Every witness in ctiurt is worn upon it to tell the truth. It is a livincly inspired volume, and is to be bc..1 n ~.i. 1? 1- - uuuii. an uiurr uuotiS, or nio words tnl scientific doctrines of nil tncn. "Turn o the Psalms," said the lecturer, and you nil lind, 'From the rising of the sun until ho going down of the sauie the Lord's I lame is to ho praised.' If the sun don't lave to move, to rise and go down, why, hen, I'm mightly mistaken. You will all limit that i SOLOMON WAS A WISE MAN, 1 cultured gentleman and a Christian.? s'ow ho says in Fcclesiastcs, 1st chnptor ' >th verse : 'The sun also ariseth and the ' uu goctli down and hastcth to his place 1 . here lie arose.' I don't know any irrain? < lar, but 1 know that whilo teaching you^ ' hildren in your grammar schools, wheri ' ou couie to the word arise you tell 'em iti ' icaus to git up, not to lie down. You alsoV "II 'em that to go down is also a movie' Ij ction. I am sho' no one will say that has- rL< :th don't mean movin.' Therefore, taking at verse from Solomou uud do meaniog of 1 e words in it, if de sun don't move then 1 iv name ain't Jasper !" (triumphantly.)? ' Ic ((noted a number of similar passages ' om the Old Testament, alwnys winding up ' ith ( "THEREFORE THE SUN DO MOVE." 1 Again lie said: "You get up in the * orning and see the sun rise j you sec it t novo Up above your bead, aud you sco it ct behind the western bills. If the sun | iou't move, then you eau call Jasper a liar." ' \ gentleman in Richmond had told him : :hat tho earth moved instead of the sun.? 1 lie asl(ed him how. The gentleman moved ! his arms rftpidly around each other in front ; )f him jtoad said on its axis. That couldu't i happen ip -viia. earth ~ "^ultftei) over. v ! If the earth turns around, then all tho people, the houses, the rivers, the creeks, the trees, the lakes and the surrounding territory would he mixed up together, and we would certainly all be drowned. We don't have an}' little trap in our feet by which we can hold on to the earth, like the flyJou the ceiling. ^"""The sun do move and tjot the earth. When the angel souuded bistrumpet and the earth moved, we would MlTkpow it, and that sound would be unweyoioa to lots of us." to the philosophers, hevaid they were gentlemen, but mistaken. TlicV did uot know they were wrong, but they should not put themselves above the ivofd of God. They might call Jasper a liarj but they must not put themselves above God. These philosophers said that tho Vu^jrns 95,000,009, miles from/-the eafrtr^BKfr did they/know ? Tic'couldn't' be made to believe that ouc of them with their "spy glasses ox microscopes or nnv othfrjfcind of scopey.-cpuH Wtfclhlt far.? No oife could compVftBTOufttht distance.? Suppose you knodk off the 94.tJ00",UOO and try to conceive the 1,(100,000 left over.? You couldn't do it. By the eye of, faith you could see that distance, but not otherwise" Tbeso philosophers would have to JookL through somethiug else besides the miefjiteope. They arc woefully mistaken, f,nnd the suu do uiovo !" UOW DOES THE SUN GET HACK AGAIN ? } 'llbo lecturer was well received, and was frequently greeted with shouts of laughter atid^ hearty applatisc, especially when ho wound up a syllogism with "therefore the sud io move." " One of the audicDce asked hiafcllic closoot the lecture how the sun goffliik lo its starting point after risiug in i'ne 'cu'sTiihd sett ing in the west. lie sajd he hasted back, for the Bible said "the suu goeth down and hasteth to the place where ho arose V ? \Yushii<ytun Star. v IIAHD TIMES AUD Sunsuixk NHKIKHS. 7?

It was oue of the first and most knotty physiological problems which presented itself to our youthful mind, why our youug sister, wheu she tried to throw a snowball at us, almost iuvariably sent it careening over the top of the house, while fe, in turn, could pop her iu tho ear almost I advnum^^fthis^Ssmrimtu^ion^f ^a^i? in our behalf "against our sister; and it may be that wo improved the opportunity to rake her fore and aft wheuevcr she cauie within firing distunoc. Hut that is neither here nor there, Ah the time passed slowly ou and we iucrcascd our stock of observation, wo saw the other fellows' sister's la' bored under about the same disadvantages that ours did, in the matter of throwing any kind of missile. Why this uiaiked and unmistakable .difference existed we ucver learned, until, at a somewhat advanced period, we looked into a book of physiology, and learned that the clavicle, or collar bone, in the anatomv of a female f ia some iucbea longer ami some degree lower down than in the masculine frame. This long, crooked awkward bouc interferes with the lull and free action of the shoulder, ami that's the reason ..why girto cannot, throw a' stone" Of 'IBit" aofTOT thing is still uncxplaiucd to our entire satisfaction. Wo have developed a pet theory of our own, however, that an allwise aud beucficcnt providence, foreseeing that there would be rolling-pins, and stovehooks und pot-lids, and hot water in the world, aot 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 frequcut cases of ambiguity in expression, as when ft man Saiu he saw u lady "scwiug with n Roman uose," Another rciuarkodj ^I.saw two men digging a well wRn straw bets."
