The school astronomies used to as?
severate that the 6tin was exactly
95.000,000 miles from the earth. Peo?
ple were generally sutit-fied that this
was a tolerably safe distance from the
fiery orb. Now, with improved im?
plements for sneassrisg celestial dis?
tances, wo are informed by scientists
that only 88.000,000 miles of space
Bepatate uh from the sun. While the
elight difference of 7,000,000 miles is
not very alarming, yet it is possible
that the next general and critical ob?
servations will diboount still further on
oar safety.. Fortunately a number of
good soientists tell us that the sun is
porcoptibly getting short of fuel, and
in the oonrae of ages will emit bo litttle
heat that the earth will become a huge
ioiole. Science quarrels with itself
sadly.
tTobn Weld on was shot and instantly
killed at Clinton, Baker County, Ala.,
a day or two ago by his son, Wm. Wel
don, agedaboot seventeen years. The
patneido io said to have been insti?
gated to the fearful crime jay his ancle,
who fled to Mississippi. Tho wife of
the unfortunate victim, and mother of
the-'murderer, was rendered nncon
Doioua by the terrible shook produced
by tho occurrence, and has remained
insensible ever since. The murderer
was arrested.
Hon. B. H Hill made a speech in
Atlanta, Wednesday night, on the po?
litical sitnation. The Atlanta Herald
says: "No ovation has been tendered
to any man since our residence in At?
lanta, as we teudered Hon. B. H. Hill
last night, The legislative hall, galle?
ry, lobbies and floor wore jammed and
packed beyond expression. There was
not standing room in any of the u'ialos,
and men almost stood upon eaoh other.
Busan B. Anthony has beoomo trea?
sonable. In a speech at Washington,
the other day, she abused Grant for
omitting in his message to Congress a
.Timnmmaniliitinn locking to fi-muln
suffrage, und "recognizing only sooie
abandoned Chiuese women emigrating
to California." Miss Anthony will
have a bayonet ut hor lily-white throat
if she is nut careful.
The existence of the Mormon Oh n roh
depends upon the future decision of
the Supreme Court of the United
States on the indiotments found by
the grand jury for polygamy and
adultery, ander the Territorial statutes
and the Congressional Act of 1862.
Bnghum Young is dying, and probably
after his death polygamous Mormon
ism will be swept away from Utah.
BliAUqHTItR OF THE INNOCENTS.?
Mary Reynolds, of Holleston, Mass.,
and a female accomplice, have been
arrested for the alleged poisoning of
fivo infants within eight weeks. The
aeoneed keep a "baby farming" estab?
lishment, and the children had been
placed in thoir churge.
Mary Allen, uu opium-eater, aged
fifty-three years, cut her throat in
Philadelphia, on Friday night. Au
unknown Germau was found dead
near Willow street wharf, iu the sumo
City, with a ballet iu his brain and a
pistol ip his bund.
It looks bud to see a dog preceding
bis master down the street, and culmly
turn down the stairs to the first saloon
he. approaches. It shows there are
something wrong, somethiug lucking,
a deplorable teudeuoy on tbe part of j
the dug.
The Rev. G. Osboro Eddy, rector of
the Glotersville (New York) Episcopal
Church, has been deposed from the
ministry. Ho had aa uncontrollable
appetite for liquor, was the husband of
two living wives and gambled exten?
sively. And that was all.
' Tho Western Union Telegraph Com?
pany raised the tallest telegraph pole
in tho world, the other day, in New
York. It is ninoty-tbree feet long and
two feet in diameter, and it came from

this Guano: "By a oritioal examination of
the analyeia .of the various cargoes you
havo imported, a striking feature is the
great r? ?ularity in tho per oentageof tho
important con?titnents essential for the
production oi ;i!l crc> ??
Prof. F.A. Oenth.o. . hiladelphia.Penn.,
aaya: "xhe Guano is evidently of animal
origin, aud the minute bones which were
discovered in the same, indicate that it ic

Tho quantity of organic matter which is
Htdl pre Bent in about 12 per cent., and tttia
yields about 2 J per cent, of ammonia. A
portion of the nitrogen is present az nitric
aoid, of which about 8 percent, were found.
All tho nitrogen present would be equiva?
lent to ahout 8? per cent.'of ammonia. The
phosphoric, aoid in the Guano averaged
about 12? per cont., eqnal to 27 3 per cent,

tity of the phoaphorio acid, however,- ir
Eresect as so-called neutral Phospbato of
lime, which, being slightly soluble in
water, renders the Guano as quick in it*
action as a corresponding quantity of Su?
perphosphates wonld do. The smaU per
contage of potash which was found in
analysis adds to its value. From all the
experiments which I have made of the
Guanahani Guano no doubt can exist that
it is'a valuable manure."
Prof. H. O. White, of the Georgia State
Agricultural Society, says: "As shown by
tho analysis, this Guano contains., in good
proportion, all the elements which'are
generally considered as of value lor, plant
food, and the forma and combinations in.
which they are present are such as4o ren?
der tbem availablo to aud assimilable, by
the plant. I should Judge that tho propor
use of this article for purposes of fertiliza?
tion would be attended with great profit."
Prof. Charles U. Bhepard, Jr., in a recent
analysis of this Guano, says: "This.Gosen
(of animal origin) would appear from its
physical and chemical properties t'c* an?
