"Well, tho fact of the matter Is that I have noticed for several nights the unmistak able path or orbit of tho comet. Lockl Do you sco that gmt streak In tbe heavens resembling bomewhattln m Iky way?

As Profes sor Klein has heretofore predicted and discovered comets with unfailing accur acy, the fulfillment of this prediction will be looked forward to with interest by the scientific world generally. Tun President Saturday suspended Horatio C. Burehard, of Illinois, as Di rector of tho Sllnts, and appointed Jamci B. Kimball, of Pennsylvania, in his stead, llr. Burehard said, In regard to his suspension, that he preferred that the change should bo made in that way rather than to resign In tho face of tho charges of Inefficiency nn 1 mii manage ment which had been made against him by personal enemies, and which have been published in several newspapers, lie did not dispute tho President's right to remove him, but had conic little curi osity to see "the reasons'' therefor which the President would glvo lo the Senate. Ills relations with Secretary Manning had always been of the most pleasant character, and bo regretted that a con trary impression had arisen since his re moval had been spoken of. Dr. James B. Kimball is nProfassor of Economical Geology In tho I.chlgh University, at Bothlchcm, this State. He is a mining engines and metallurgist by profession. He was educated at narvard University and-at the Mining School of Frclbnrg, Saxony, receiving tho degree of Ph.D. from tho University of Ucttltijcn In 1K7. He has held appointments on inents.. Thocrofn lields were In sight; oven the warning noto of tho scvcntccn year locust roundel like music, almost" equaling tho eong of tho blrdsr-TValk-lng along I cams to a beautiful place, where magnificent residences skirted the way. None but tho rich lived there The squalor and wrotche'dness that meets you everywhere In tho city, was nowhoro to bo seen. On a 6loplns hill sldo was a rural palace; on the building and grounds two hundred thousand dol lars had been expended. AH that art and tasto and iuoney could do was done. to beautify and adorn this elegant house. lie who built It and Inhabited It two years' ago, Is now a f ugltlvo from justice, an! ihls splendid mansion and grounds represent tho proceeds of his thefts, and arc for sale. It Is a strange history, Almost thirty years ago a poor friend. less, boy landed In this country from England. lie sought employment, and found It with ono of tho most enterpris ing firms In the city. Tho boy was dill gent and faithful, and ho rose from place to placo year after year, till at tho. end of twenty years ho found himself a partner In tho concern, with an Income of 825,000 a year. Tho poor boy had reached the highest round of tho social ladder. Men took off their hats as they passed .him in tho street; women point ed him out to their husbands as a model; employers mentioned him as an example to their clerks, and told them that if they only pursued tho same course that ho pursued, they would bo one day per- hapi like him The man himself was a study. He held his head high, and he looked right over the heads of common men, forget ful of his own meagre start; ho seldom noticed any of the minor employees of tlio concern, and when he did, he made them feel their Infcrioiity. As ho grew rich ho rather began to look down on his mercantile associates, for he himself wai .of a literary turnt and had a soul above bobbins and thread. Ycars.rollcd on, and the firm to which ho was at tached becann ono of tho foremost In the city, when suddenly ono morning Now York was startlod with a story of thefts that shook It to tho centre. The tried and trusted partner of this mighty firm had been detected robbing his as sociates, and was In fact a common thief. Tho news flew llko wildfire; we all thought that tho thief would be made an example of: thciuo3t extraordinary revelations wore premised when all of a su Idcn everybody connected with the aff ilr became mum as an oyster, and after tho robberies had been fully de monstrated a stop was r.t once put to all pioccedlngs. Tho convicted thief moved out of his splendid homo a dis graced and ruined man; but the firm ho hid robbed did not prosecute him but gave him money' to depart for Europe, where hcnnwmour.ns ovcrcrini33 which cannot be recalled. What was Ihe secret of this sudden change? you ask. Well, a very simple one. Tho firm with which ho had been connected had been robbing the govern ment for years by swearing to false In voices and perpetrating other frauds upon tho government, and this tried and trusted partner had been the Instru ment of their perjury. hen brought face to face with his crimes bo defied his accusers while acknowledging his thefts, and they finally compromised by taking lis properly ai:d letting tho criminal go free. Ano'hcr great firm paid the government a quarter of a mil Hon of dollars on Invoices falsely sworn through, and yet there arc not more p.'om or honorable men to be found in New York than that same firm. Tffcic is no denying the fact, that lobbcry of tho government is not looked upon as stealing by the great majority of mer chants, and men will swear to a false in voice who would scorn to pick a pocket or tap a till. In tho past week tho rove- latlons made at tho Custom House prove that for the sake of a few dollars men esteemed reputable aro willing to jcop ardlzo their liberty, llteir characters, and their souls. The timo has como when this villainy oujkt to be stopped, and the soonersomconc Is mado an example of the better. Tho case with which men swear was never better illustrated than In the case of Mr. Itccd. Mrs. Reed sues ford! yorcc, and believes her husband to be worth $200,000; certain It is that the profits of his business ran up as high as !.$-iO,000 a year this Mr. Reed don deny. Ho then sold out his business for $30,'XM), but swears llko a niosstrcopor that he Is not worth a cent, and that ho Is only a clerk In the bmlucss at 4 1,500 a year, where a short time ago hew a: the principal, drawing a dividend of $40,030 a year. I would not for the world assert that Mr. Reed Is guilty of perjury 1 but it locks very strange to man up a tree. "The uii'.lr'of tho gods grind slowly but they grind exceeding fine," and this Mr. Bud lcnsclk has discovered to his cost. Ills buildings were death-traps If thero Is r.o Sheol wo want to get chance at Mr. Buddcn clk while he Is here, and as a punishment for his crimes make It as uncomfortable for him as possible. Ten years In States Prison Is not ,a comfortable contemplation for man after ho has reached fifty-five, Hero U a man who lauded hero almost boggar, glad to cam by honest work fifty cents or adullara diy. Kor a few years worked away ana lod an honest life ger was his own conductor, but wo clung to these old arks as If they had been a blessing. . ' I have no word to say about tho meth ods by which Mr. Sharp got bis fran chise. It is quite immaterial whether ho gave I)uffy and. Welly arid Drlscoll and McShanc twenty thousand dollars each for their, .votes prnot; ho got them and the bill went through according to law. The Supreme Court jo decided in' his favor, and under the terms of his charter Mr. Sharp kccs Broadway in order, and If bis. income holds as it has begun, ho will pay tho city from $75,000 to $100,000 a year for its use. Tho city has a good bargain, and tho cars are ft positlvo blessing. I never hoped to eoo a surface railroad on Broadway, 'and confess that I had all of an .old New Yorker's projudlco against It; but now tho cars are running I own up-that was mistaken, and in thirty, .days from this timo if anybody should attempt to movp tho cars from Broadway I believe It would lead to a riot. Tho H'oWd's bitter opposition Is senseless and stupid, and not at all In keeping with Its enter prise In other directions. Mr. Sharp and his associates may have made a good thing, but the cltv will realize moro by tho bargain than sho ever received for all tho privileges sho has given since her Incorporation Doctor Talmage has left us to enjoy a season of well-earned repose on the oth or side of the water. Occasionally I may havo Indulged In a little pleasantry at some of tho Doctor's methods, but never In the spirit of mallco or disre spect. Tho Doctor has his own pecu liar way, and without that way ho would not bo Doctor Talmage. As a hard and earnest worker in tho cause of Christ, there aro few in this land that surpass him. Ho is a Calvinlst through and and through. You can call it Sheol or Gehenna or Tophct, or anything else. but to the Doctor it means a lake of burning brimstone at tho very uncom fortable temperature of seventeen mil lion degrees with a heavy weight on top of the safety-valve. There Is no fool ishness about tho Doctor; ho takes hfs tralght and red-hot at that; but aside from his theology, a moro genial gentle man docs not live. As ho intimated somo time ago he has no objection to roller-skating might possibly take a spin himself; and my Individual opinion Is that he would bo a heavy weight at base-ball. If ho only batted the ball as lard as ho bats tho devil; no pitcher could stand In front of him. In Brook lyn where ho is known, there arc few men held higher in public esteem, and In his promised vacation ho carries with hlin tho love of his congregation and tho Godspeed of tho entire community. Brother Becchcr will toon hie him to his rural retreat, whore the hay fever com cth not.

There seems to have been no authori ty for the supposition that tho Admin istration would make a clean sweep of Republicans from oflice at tho close of tho fiscal year and many Democratic Congressmen arodlsgu3tcd that tho out look ls not promising.

It Is iuppeced the Senator could not withstand the pres sure of his constituents who wanted postotllces, and he Is now as active In tracking around tho departments as any body. Thero was a rumor yesterday that Director of tlio Mint Burehard had been asked to resign. Appointment clerk Hlglns was asked If It was true. He replied that ho had heard nothing of it, Your concspoiident then saw Mr, Burehard, who, in answer to the corres pondent's questions, said ho had not resigned, bad not been asked to resign, and did not know e-f anything upon which the rumor could be based, '.Not withstanding this positive denial, it Is said to-day that there ls no doubt that Mr; Burehard had been asked to resign, and has refused to do so upon the grounds that he rould not bo removed except upon charges. Tho law provides specifically that reasons must bo given when. tho director of the. mint is re moved. It is thought, however, that this will not embarrass Secretary Man nlng, and that he will remove Mr, Burehard as soon as he has determined upon his successor. He will give for his "reasons' that ho is not satisfied with Mr. Burchard's management of tho office. Soutiimin Pm-.p, N.C., Juno 29. Tho York State man ls known by his "bo's," the New Englander ls known by his "kcows;" the Pennsylvanlan by his "scein's;" tho Irishman by his broguo and the German by his "nix's." So it cannot be wondered at in the least If hero In tho South ono finds somo ex pressions that challenge the attention of tho new comer or "tenderfoot." To illustrate: Everything In the matter of timo of day Is cither "morning" or "evening". "Morning" Is any timo be fore noon, and "evening" Is any time afternoon. Now, you know that in the north If a person says that he will call on you In the evening, wc accept It that at that time of tho day after the second meal since breakfast, when the tasks for the day are completed, and, with curtains drawn close and lamps alight, wo sit down to compare notes, swap yams and lay plans for next day's labor or pleasure, wo may expect that his promise will be kept." "Good evening" lnthc Sonth means "good afternoon" in tlio North. And so on through tho entire use of tho word. Then there is tho word "carry." Down here the people say, "I'll carry you over there this evening." Of course they mean that you may ride with them in their carriage seme time after dinner. There arc other peculiarities of expres sion, but I have enumerated enough for this time. A LITTLE SEUCXADE. This is the native homo of the North Carolina Mocking Bird, a winged crea ture about the general slzo and form of a thrush. The other morning one of the little beauties tendered tho writer here of a serenade. He (the bird) was swing ing on a bough of a tag-alder bush, and for upwards of ten minutes ho sang ono of the quaintest and most attractive medleys ever listened to by mortal cars. Emma Abbott's voice is sometimes called bird-like, but Emma would glvo the pro ceeds of several successful seasons If sho could sing the song that I heard from the mocking bird's throat. It ls a great pleasure to hear Emma Abbott sing, while to hear the North Carolina Mock ing Bird at his best is to see the curtains of heaven drawn quietly aside audio ca'ch the perfect melody that Issues from the portals of the beautiful Over There. Listen t" the mocking bird," and listen as well tg the native south crner as ho tells you A LITTLE STORY of the precious bird whoso song Is the very essence of melody. Ho will first tell you that if you catch a grown mock ing bird and rage him he will never sing a note while behind tho bar. In fact "He never slnss behind Die liar," for he is a lover ot freedom, and his picture would not be out of place on a corner of the Stars and Stripes. 'Suppose you catch a young one, and tame It?" you very naturally Inquire. And then the man of the South smiles He sees his opportunity. He has chance to tell you something. His ans wer will be In substance something like this: "Some people have caged young mock ing birds, but I have never yet heard that a caged mocking bird was ever known to sing. They do say that It Is the mother bird that teaches the young birds to sing. Besides It is somewhat dangerous to cage the young birds." "Dangerous! Mow dangerous?." you Innocently Inquire. "Dangerous to the young bird, sir. Some sunny day you will hang the cage outside the house so that tho little pris oner may have a chance to look over the large, grand house he has been taken from. Then the old mother bird will come about the cage. You would not be so cruel as to drive her away. Direct ly afterward jou take your cage ln-duors, and In a few minutes your mocking bird Is dead. You see, sir, the mother bird brings a poisoned berry which the feeds heryoun;, preferring to klll it rather than have it grow up In captivity." A dim idea of a new law In the bird code of rules, In the Interest of young mocking birds, floats through jour mind and you have something to think over, at least, for the next half hour.

Pennsylvania has her annual camp, which calls for about as much attention in summer as her citizen soldiers can spare for mili tary training; and so It Is with Massa chusetts, New Jersey and other States. The Philadelphia camp Is really only a continuation of tho scries of competi tions already held this season at Momlo and Now Orleans.

Sun: The most striking feature of tho so-called National Military En campment now going on in Fairmount 1'ark, Is that the troops assembled there, are almost wholly from South and West. There aro soldiers from Michigan but nono from Maine. Kentucky finds no difficulty in sending four companies of Infantry and a light battery, but Con necticut does not furnish a squad. Tho organized militia strength of Massachu setts Is twice as great as that of Mis souri, but the termer State has thus far bad nothing to spare for Fairmount, while St. Louts contributes two of Its crack organizations. It ls true that the nrcsence of one comnanv from Xcw llampshlro has given New England a slight representation at the encampment while a Catling battery from Xcw York was on tbe ground at the opening as a contribution from tlio Empire State. Hut while distant places like Montgom ery, Mobile, New Orleans and even Houston have their troops at Fairmount. great towns near by keep their militia at home. The crowning oddity of the affair Is that, with two entlro regiments from Ohio present, so great Is their in terest in tlie encampment, not a solitary company from Pennsylvania, not even from Philadelphia itself, has put in an appearance. ftut why Is this ratherlng held In Philadelphia?
