Drought and Yrot.
A well known Bitish ccitist. Mr.
E. J. Lowe, ha; recenfly ptibiehed v

Whatever be the truth as to the ilngthI
of the cycle Or uniormity in the re
currence of drought, Mr. Lowu lhas
pretty clearly shown connelctionl be
tween freezes and dIroughlts. In our
Own experiencee the winter of 1879 w as
* exceedingly dry, and the past winter
* excessively cold. If'Mr. Low~e's theory
* ~ be correct thmere is cause to apprehei
* a dry summer tis year, and1( here
again, hl thle floods of thle past two
mloniths, is found corruborationl of the
theory.
England suffered f-onm a fearful
drought in 1870. The past winter has
beeni marked with cold almost unpre
cedonted, and thIs year Is the eleventh
usice 1870. Mr. Lowe believes, then,
that England may expect a severe
drought.
-d We are toldlalso by astronomers thlat
the sun hlas just entered a period of
"I unusual activity, and that great nmag
netic fluctuations have occurred onjthe
earth's surface. The man11 in tile moon
has not yet begiun to cut any didos,
and the comet has niot yet fallen upjoni
tile earth. For thes~e mercies we are
Iitankful. Still it Is well to be dubl)

the apparent ey!dences of prosp~erity.

Finally, made desperate by their re- I

were cut and backed, and th tendons I
torn from their places from the knee c

with anr axe, after which the body was r
hidden uder some bushes In a neigh- v

Two nights later two of them car- I

crimeo was comnitted, and that the
body had been thrown into the sink
hole where it was found. This woiaur,
who was considered a sort of witch in
the neighborhood, had evidently been
told by some of the negroes what they
had done.
