The following interesting facts cod tenting the sun are condensed from tin ccentlj published work of Amedei Jaillemin : The sun at the zenith (and 91 mil ion miles' distance from us) gives at Jttch light to any object as 68,000 can les three and a half feet from that ob ct. The 1 ght of the snn is about 75 times s intense as that of Drominond iight, nd the most dazzling electric light evei btained was 2} times weaker than the no's rays. The 'after is 18O.U00 times Wronger than that of a candle. The suu's light at or near the z-nith, ith a clear sky. is about 1000 times renter than wheu the sun is setting; 00 times greater than when ouc de rce high, and eight times ns great as hen five degrees high. Dr. Wo! las ton calculated the light of le sun to be at least twenty thousand nllion times greater than that of Sir-. is or the dug star. The light of the son is 800,000 nil * creator than that of the moon. The sun's light at the planet Mcriry is 7000 times grc-iter than the land Neptune.

The special corn sp >ndeut of the .N 2 Y. Tribune at Berlin gives, on the 26t 2 ultimo, the following official s^atemer of German captures thus far, not in eluding Laon : 5 On the 2d of August, the day whe ' Saarbiuck was temporarily ahaoriooe ' by the Prussians, the French lost a prisoners six officers and sixty Bevei ' privates. > At Wciscmbourg, 30 officers am 1,000 men as prisoners, 4 mitmilleurs 1 22 cannon, 51 army wagons and carria ! ges of nil kinds.

These were capturod in tho fortresses Hurrcndored during the first half ni August: At Ilanneuu, 4 officers, 102 privates, 8G horses, a large supply oi arms; at Litchtenberg, 3 officers, 28C privates, 7 guns, 200 muskets, 30,00C cartridges, powder, &c.; at Lutzolstein and Petite Pierre, large quantities ol arms and munitions; at Marsal 60 guns The three days' fighting at Mctz do not show such large captures 01 uicn and material because the enemy was able to save both under the guns of that fortress. Still, the captures were, at Vionville, 30 officers and 3,000 prisoners; Oravolottc, 54 officers and 3,000 prisoners. (The lo>?es in killed and wounded during those three days were 25,000 ) Since then the captures have been, at the fortress ofVitry lc Fruncais, 17 officers and 850 private prisoners, and 16 guns.

Social Honor.?Every person should cultivate a nioc sense of honor. In a hundred different ways this most fittinp adjunct of the true lady or gentleman is often tried. For instance, one is a guot in a family where, per hnp?, the domestic machinery does not run smooth!^. There is sorrow in the house unsuspected by the outer world Sometimes it is a dissipated sun whose conduct is a shame and a grief to his parents, sometimes a relative whose eccentricities and peculiarities arc a cloud on the home. Or, worst of all, hu band and wife may not be in accord, and there may be often bitter words ;spoken, and harih recriminations. In any of those cases the guest is in honor bound to be blind and deaf, so far as people are concerned. If a gentle word within can do pood, it m3V be well said; but to go forth and reveal the shadow of an unhappy secret to anyone, even your nearest friend, is an act of indelicacy and meanness almost unparalleled. Once in the scored products of any home, admitted to its privacy, sharing its life, all that you sec and hear should become a sacred trust. It is as really contemptible to gossip about such things as it would be to steal the silver or borrow the books und tail to return them. How Monkeys are Caught ? From the chapter of Menageries, in Oliver Logan's "Before the Foot Lights und Behind the Scenes," wo make the following extract : Monkeys are such cunning creatures, one would suppose them the more difficult to catch than other wild animals. Pitf'nlla will tjike a lion, and the fatu ished monarch of the forest will, after days starvation, dart into a cape containing food, and thus be secured. 13ul how are monkeys caught t The ape family resembles man. Their vices art human. They love liquor and fall. Ir Durlour Sanaar the natives innrke for mooted beer of which monkeys ar< passionately fond. Aware of this, th< n itives go to (lie j?Krts of the fore-ti fr<quented by the monkeys, and set 01 the ground calabashes full of the cnti cina liquor. As soon as the monkc; . sees and tastes it, lie utters loud crie i of j-iy, that attracts his comrades Thei i ao orgic begins, and in u short time th > beasts show all degrees of iatoxicatior Then the negroes appear. They ar t >o far gone to distrast them, bu'.npparcntly take them for larger specie* : jj of their own genus. The negroes take tbexn np, and then begin immediately 11 to weep and -cover them with kisses.? 1 > When a negro takes one by the hand 1 to load hint off. the nearest monkey will i Q dine to the ono who tlms finds a sup- 1 ,j port, and endeavor to go off also. An- 1 8 other will grasp at him, and so on till ' n the negro leads a staggering line of ten I or a dozen of tipsey monkey*. Whon t j finally brought to the village they are 1 , securely caged, and gradually sobered I ' down; but for two or three days, a i gradually diminishing supply of liquor 1 is given them, so as to reconcile them I by degrees to their state of captivity. ] e p Great Eartbquake in Asia? * P Over tkrte thousand People Killed.? i A correspondent.of the Londou Times i . writes from India: ? j ,,The Roman Catholic Bishop of * Batang,on theconfinesof Thibet, Uhioa, I j and Bunaah'ands to India a terrible I j account of an earthquako in that region, ? , affecting an urea of one liundied and f , eighty by ninety miles. The event oc- ? curred on the 11th of April, and his * [ letter is dated the 30th of May. Con- t sidoring that the missionaries there can t communicate only by Shanghai, the <3 I- transit of the letters has been rapid.? ? Last year, it may be remembered, there p was a very destructive earthquake in n I the, in one sense, adjoining British t I district of Cachar. A shock at five in ' ( the morning and a stronger shock at a r noon were followed at sunset by an ii earthquake which leveled the whole t | town, and killed or bruised half the $ population. The missionaries escaped h to their garden, and only one of their o servants perished. The Inrge and splen- t did Lamaserai, inhibited by three t thousand Lamas, fell with a crash. n "Tho nhinftsfi official rcDorts. which v Dr. Chauvcau tells us aro a little exag- 1 gerated, estimate 'the loss of human 1 life at 418 Lama priests, 57 soldiers, 11 and 2,812 'common people.' A series 0 of earthquake shocks were felt as fur as u Poiigmonstnng, whore Mr. T. T. Coop- 8 er met Sucr Suggufsing, tho Ncpaulese c Ambassador, in 1SG8. 'J'he village and r' many othtrs are destroyed, and so many of the authorities and the soldiers have been buried under the ruins of their n houses that 'robbers, like wild beasts, ? run everywhere.' To conclude, in the T bishop's own words, 'the imperial high- " way Irom Pekiti to L lia?sa seems, and 1 is said to be now, totally impracticable * near Kotig-dzc tiu by the fall of n mountain and the sudden upbeat ing of a new one.' " CnuE'ii Matters?"Well Kufus, I gong to the First Presbyterian wi h Die this morning?" " No, father. I reckon I'll go down to the Second Methodist." Put on his way to the edifice, Rufus uniformly stopped at the oilicc, unlocked the old gentleman's private closet, and indulged himsilf with plensant fluid. Every Sunday morning the Judge repeated his Jaudabel inquiry; but Ilnfus preferred the Second Methodist. The Judge soon began to ootico a marked diminution in the contents of his demijohn, and ^ I riffhtt'nllv eusDeoted who was the cul* a * r j - i # . M prifc. The Judge emptied the remaining liquid'into another vessel, and placed it in a secluded place. Next ? Sunday morning came the usual interrogatory: "Going with me this morning, Rufus?" "No, father; I reckon I'll slick to the Second Methodist."? t On reaching the office, and talcing hold * of the demijohn, he not only saw with disgust that it was empty, but noticed a small piece of white paper attached to ^ the handle, on which was legibly in- J* scribed these words: " Second Methodist closed for repairs." After church, tc father aod son met, and looking curi- 113 ously at each other, smiled a little e* sinile, but said nothing. The repairs P on that Methodist building have not 31 yet been completed. g A Horrible Scf.nf. at an Execu- ^ TION.?The Vienna Wanderer relates . to a horrible scene which occurred at Cor- p inth, in Greece, at the execution of a p nuuibcr of brigands. The criminals were six in numocr, ana two or mem i ?, drew dampers at the mouient when they j q were to lay their heads under the fatal axe, and rushed upon the executioners with frantic fury. One of the latter owed his safety only to a cost of moil ^ he wore under his shirt, while nnothor tc was dangerously wounded. The rest hnd to defend themselves with their axes and knives against the robbers, p and did this with ro much fury, that two of the criminals were dead and cut to pieces before their heads fell by the fatal axe. This horrible spectacle was enacted before an immense concourse of people. .

Beautiful Tuodght?There is but breath of air and a beat of the heart tetween this world and the next. And n the brief interval of a paiuful and wful suspense, while we feel that death 3 with us, that we arc powerless, and he all powerful, and the last faint pulatiou here is but the prelude of end* ess life heroafter, we feel in the midst f stunning calamity about to befall us, hat earth has do compensating good to he severity of our loss. But there is 10 grief without some beneficent proisioos to soften its intensities. When he good unl the lovely die, and tho uemory of their good deeds, like the aoon beams on the stormy sea lights up ur darkened hearts, and lends enchantlent to the surroundings, a beauty so ad, so sweet, that we would not, if we ' ould, di>pel the darkness that cuvions it.
