Great Telescope Olasse. The glass for the now refracting tele scope ordered by the Russian Government, when completed, will be the largest in the world. Its extreme diameter will be from thirty one and one-half to thirty-two Inches, with a clear aperture of thirty inches. J Three years and one-half are allowed for its completion-two years to procure the rough disks and eighteen months for grind tension of time, provided good and sufficient reasons are given for the failure to finish within the specitled period. When Ilnished the glass will be mounted in Hamburg. The cost of the glass alone will be $32,000. The material for the glass will probably be furnished by French manufacturers, the Clarks finding their disks to be most trust worthy. As the procuring of glass of a density as nearly uniform as possible, and free from flaws, is of the utmost importance, Mr. Alvan 0. Clark left for E'urope to a certain the prospect of a careful complet ion of that part of the contract. I Ic was4 ac coipanlid by Mr. Struve, the Director of Sthio Russian Imporial Observatory ait l1tul kowa, who made the a\vard to Clark & Sons, and will return in about six weeks. The method of making glass of this 'size is very Interesting. The raw material is carefully selected and mielted in an ordinary glass pot, allowed to cool and then broken out. It is onc emore melted an( cast into rough plates. These are placed in a mould and heated until they are waxlike in con aistency. Then they spread out and fill the mould, making what are called the rough disks. This IF the shapo In which they are received by the Clarks, whose labor begins at this polit. The disks are first mado perfectly circular by means of a revolving disk of iron, with the aid of wet, sand. They are then roughly ground on an iron plate, fed with sand and water, to sone thing approaching the shalfe th3y will have when completed. Then comes the line grinding with cencry on another ron plate. This part of the process hasts from six weeks to two months, and the rest. of the time is devoted to pohslhing, testing and correcting. The polishing is done with rouge on an Iron tool, covered N ith a ine layer of tar and pitch, and hand :abor must be employed. When the glass has received its first polish it is set up and I.-sted, and from this time on the work is a sitcession of testing and correcting, .-peated until the desired result Is reached. In this operation great, careinust be taken, for anll inaccuracy namounting to but ahair'sbradth in the thick ness of the glass at soine particular point. would be suflicient to seriously injure it and require months to bring it to Its forner state of completion. If the glasses were of ab solutely InII'-ormn t1ensity throughout, the operation would 1-c comparatively simple. But such a piece of glass it is Impossible to thid, and as each variation in refractive power must be equalized, the glass needs to be corrected in nearly every point of its surface. As the glass is tested after each correction, an inimense amount of patient, careful labor is required. Again, the con ditions under which the ghlass is to be used must be taken into account, and ailso the state of the atmosphere and the tempneratnre when'the tests are made, conditions which are never twico alike. As telescopes are most used before midnight, their objectives are corrected for a falling temperature. One of the Clarks said that a glass which would be called in fair condition might re ceive several months' labor before being what they would consider perfect, and yet in that timo the amount of material removed would not equal one-tenth of a grain in weight. The largest glasses now in exist ence; are the objective at Washington and one made by the Clarks for McCormick, but stIll In their p)ossesson, each of which is twenty-six iniches in dliamfeter. Whein this and the Russian glass are completed, of the four largest glasses in the world, three ~ill have been mnade by Alvan Clark & Sons. Trho contract madlo with the lRussian GAov crnment with thme Clarks wvas concluded September 1. It Is providedl that the (left nition of the glass shall not be inferior to that of the telescope mn tIle Naval Observa tory, and tIle amount of lighlt shall1 be greater in proportion to thme increased area If of tile objective, allowance beIng mnade for 2 thle absorption of lighmt by tIle glass. 'When the roua:h disks are rcady for figuring, M. Struve is to receive for his approval the plan for fixIng the objective glasses mn their cells. M. Struvo has1 tIme right ao (designate the ratio of focal lengthl of the objective to :1 its aperture, said ratio being not less than 18 to I, nor greater than 20 to 1, and tho Clarks must make tile focal lenugthi confornm to tis ratio within one-fortlethl of its whole amount. If Mt. Struve dlesignates no ratio, the Clarks shall gIve such focal lengthl that the ratio shall be 1t6 to 1, within the limit Ignato wvhat two rays or parts of the solar spectrum, shall1 be brought, to one focus b)y tile combined actions of the lenses, and if it fall to do this, the makers shall fashion the 6 curves of the glass so as to give the most perfect achromnatism. It is provided that the Clarke shall, about the i'me of the comn e~' pietion of the objectIve, construlct a rough, reversible equlatorial mouniting for It, inlum ding a tube of suech sIze, form and thickness IH as the Russian Govermnt may direct, tIle wholle to be so arranged that tIme objective may be safely anid conveniently tested by observations of the stars at least onie hour qon each side of tIme merIdian, Th'le pay.. mthents for the objective were agreed to be paid as follows: $8,000 In advance, $6,000 IL when thle rough dis5ks are ready for figuring f' i',jand $18,000 when the glass Is accep)ted.

A Trout Story, A gentteman has ini his groundls near Whitehati, New York, an artificial trout pond, wvhich contains at least 8,000 spot ted beauties, weiginmg from a hlalf to twvo pounds eachl.

Tile fish have learned to jump up out of the -water and snateh a worm from hecr lingers. They' seem exceedingly fond of her, In fact they may be said to perfectly adore thleir queen.

All thle birds and beasts of the country were entirely destroy ed. Numbers of the human race suffered the same fate.
