The congressional contests this j ear in Pennsylvania arc unusually tlistiirlel mid both parties are having trouble in their camps. A Democratic district or two is imperilled by internal disorder, but a fair offset is obtained by dissensions in Hepiibli can districts which seem te beevenmore virulent than In the Democratic families. The Republicans have a very het family Are kindled In the adjoining Cliecter-DeU-ware district, wliere Mr. Darlington cheated Congressman Evcrhart out of a re nomination he was entitled te expect. As the foil; down that way are iccull.ir, It is net surprising that there is some very fine practice in their dealings, nor that, when they get eacli ether by the ear they don't let go for a while. Jbverhart and Darlington are lu iug just the sort of quiet, wicked, stubborn fight, which might have been predicted from the nature of the elements engaged in it. The paity is pretty well split betwixt them, se that the Demo cratic candidate has a line chance of elec tion. We are sorry that it is net Beb Monaghan who has it. But what could be done with a man who was se confoundedly straight that he could net take Cleveland because of his moral character ' Monaghan was about the only Democrat in Pennsylvania who was caught by this Blaine campaign lly-paper. He is honest and earnest and Democratic te the core, and generally steel's right ; but when he steers wrong the stone walls in the way need te leek out. The Republicans aie having another elegant time in the ileailville district, where one Dr. Roberts is their candidate, who seems te be about the worst man in the state, if all is true that the opposing Re publican faction says of him. Nerman Hall, the Democratic candidate, is likely te go te Congress from thisdistiict, se that there will be ene Hall in the 1'enn sylvauia delegation, if the ene in the Clear field district is beaten, as it is quite possi ble he may be. If the Democratic state executive com mittee succeed in straightening out thing? in the Fayette seat se as te assure the election of a Deiuet rat, our party is likely te suffer a geed deal lcs3 than the Kupub'i cans from broils in the districts. the feeling that il was prompted by a m.ul man.

Majer Volkmar has submitted te the ad jutant general his report en the national guard of Pennsylvania. He says that the plan of encamping by separate regiments is an improvement en the system of as sembling all the state troops in uue large encampment. He bases this conclusion en the fact that it throws the ellicers of the u-giment upon their own resources and se tends te give them the self-reliant character that is soes sees sential te successful ceminaml; that the " troops learn better hew te supply them selves upon a service which they are mere frequently called upon te render their state." On the ether hand, a beneus objection te encamping the guard by tegiment near home is the host of interested jieoplewho thus find convenient oppeitunity for visit ing their friends in regimental camps, the presence of whom at times becomes an incenvenience and almost an obstacle te satisfactory performance of militaiy duty. Te reniove tills one objection, the major suggests that encampments be selected at a distance from railway lines se that it will be difficult for visitors te leach them, ami the troops will gain practice in route march ing when pieceeding from the nearest sta tion te their camp. He notes a decided improvement in the discipline and diill of the men, and in the performance of guard duty, but sajs that there should be improvement in the pie" scribed courtesy te officers, and mere uni formity in the manner of carrying field equipments and in camp arrangements. The lepeit condemns the wretched arms and ammunition supplied the Guard, and therecommendatiensof the previous year's report en this point are renewed. " Inter est in a soldier's weapons," saja M.ijer Velksmar, " cannot be very gieat, when he knows that they are inferior, obseleto and almost absolutely worthless." In time of danger the people leek te the National Guard for aid and they should impress upon Congress the prime necessity of arming their defenders with modern weapons. Military experts all deciaie that many an important battle has been leit in spite of skill, numbers and bravery, by in ferior weapons. "We are forewarned , let ns be forearmed.

This question admits or no m inner of doubt when viewed in the clear light in which a member of the cabinet recently put it.

In order te anticipate a question Inte w hlch our critic has net inquired, it seems proper te state why the demonstration el Th.

The object Is te de termine the fox of force prevailing at the t'int A which win oause a particle at A te which a centrifugal Impulse at right angles with AH is imparted, te describe an are or a circle. It is shown by the demon stration that the law- which will satisfy this condition Is the law of gravitation itself.

The expression :h5Y'A' F--? ,7;i,y'u which h represents twice the atea described by the radius vector in a unit of time is properly derived. The error which Newton commits is simply an oversight. It is conceded that In an expression of varia tion only variables should be retained. Will anyone dispute that the chord of a given circle drawn through two given points is a constant? lu the course el the dem onstration Newteu says, let I V be the chord drawn through S from P. S and P are points fixed before the chord l'V is drawn. PV can only be what it is and nothing else. The supposition that the p' i-es of S and P may be changed will net change the chord I'Y , for then the chord drawn from P through S will be an entirely ether chord. The chord drawn in this latter case will also be a constant as will Indeed any chord of which two fixed points are given. It is evident that HP is variable, since It Is the radius vector, but we must net conleund SP the radius vector with .SP as a part of the chord PY'. As vector HP Is variable as a part or the chord It is constant, Hy applying this, se rightfully test, te the ih'VA1 expression F-s,.j,v, In which Newton recegulzes the oenstancy of h and Y'A but tails te acknowledge the equally evident con. stancy et PV, the final expression of varia tion and the true expression is, F varies In versely as SP', which is the law of gravita tion face te face. Had Newton net commit ted this oversight in his demonstration, he would have ttpared me the task of Introduc ing the true doctrine of orbits. Had he made this announcement in his day. It would have been accepted witueut me nes Hie demonstrations which confront an hum ble Instrument whe happens net te be "geed authority." Had be announced this theory, astronomers would long since have recon ciled themselves. It islmpetent te maintain that a series of observations is worth mere than a volume of demonstration, but iny article is growing tee long aud must be brought te a close. By way of conclusion, let me say that if I hav e net shown sufficient respect ler the criti cism irem the observatory, 1 have, at least, displaced ue worse behavior than the dis tinguished professor himself. The tone or his entire production is remarkable for Its manifestation efspleen and prejudice, no less than ler Its abseiuie Bieruuy wi argument. He will, I have no doubt, find some "diffi culty in seeing Just where Newton is wrong." Might 1 net add, that Judging irem the dis. play In public, it doesuet requirea very diffi cult task te gtve him some trouble. The pre. fesser is uet very candid in saying that be is net supposed te knew, wherein I propose te assail Newton's demonstration. personally directed his attention te the point, shortly after my eriitlnal announcement. During that in terview tasked him te assent te the fact that a chord drawn through two fixed points Is a constant, te which he simply replied "net necessarily," u third or fourth time. Finally he agreed se far, but fairly indicated byre marks and manner, that, whether right or wrong, he proposes te fellow Newton any. hew, fcccatue he is yoed authority. Prof. Kershner is net correct in saying that a cel league and himself were innocently drawn into controversy with me. Surely net ty me. Their comment appeared lu connection with my first announcement, te which I did net at all object, I want criticism, but let It be worthy of the name. Ifltlste be a game of bluff, il is certainly a two sided play, aud our friends must net think harsh if I try te play iny side, Hucccsslul contradiction will re ceive acknowledgement at once, aud I want no ene te suppose from the tone of this reply, that 1 will take unfair advantage of any criti cism that is .offered with a due degree el courtesy.
