Extraordivatry Conduct of a Judge.
A letter from Kingston, Jamaica, gives the
following details of an extraordinary affair on
that island:
A serious disturbance broke out at Fal
mouth, on the north side of the island, be
tween the black soldiers. 'and (the new con
stabulary force located there. Order was
restored, and several of the soldiers were
taken into custody and committed for trial.
The magistrates for tho parish of Trelawny,
indignant at the judicial policy of the Go
vertior, which, gives any person charged be
fore a sitting magistrate the option of select
ing to be tried by the magistrates or by
the district judge, proposed to tender in a
body the resignation of their commissions
Ito justices, of the peace for the parish.
Aiter a good deal sof talk and bravado. it WAS
fano,"that the magistrates wanted . the news
osq , Ipount of resolution, and they sepa- . ,
'rataktrithout doing anything. Colonel Om
uta bas not been discouraged by the unex
- pecb:d.cto by" which' the Legislature gave
- the subject of a subsidy for steam communi
ilition between Jamaica and New Orleans,
with the view of promoting immigration
from the southern States ; The 811bjeet, is
THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN.:-PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 28, 1867.-TRIPLE SHEET.'
still being agitated, information regarding
the island is being widely diffused, and
another effort will be made ere long to have
.the subsidy for a mail service. A great sen
'sation has been produced throughout the
country by the extraordinary conduct
of 11r. Justice Lowry on the ' bench
of St. Mary. However true and de
served his censure might have been on the
prisoners before him, it is clear that the dig
nity of his court was not upheld. , The. fol
lowing scene is said to have taken place dur
ing the hearing of a case: Silvera was the
petty debt collector of the parish, who was
arrested and imprisoned by Governor Eyre
during the rebellion of 1865 for seditious lan
guage. Silvera tenders his objections in
writing against fthe jurisdiction of the jus
tices. One was received, the other was re
jected. Silvera (to the. clerk of the court)—
I must ask you to note that I tendered
two objections. I demand Judge
Lowry—Do not interrupt the court, sir.
How dare you address the clerk, sir?
They shall not be. taken down. You are a
swindler; you and the other man (Kelly)
have swindled the public" for a long time.
Silvera—Am I in a British court of justice or
not? All I look for is justice (thumps the,
table). Am I— Judge Lowry—Hold your
tongue, sir, or I shall commit you. Produce
your warrant. Silvera—All my papers were
taken away by the Government, and I have
not had them back: but— Judge Lowry—
' Shut your mouth, sir. Hold your tongue, I
do not believe you; you have been robbing
the people for a long time. • Silvera—l must
ask your worship to give me fair play,
and— Judge Lowry—Shut your mouth,
sir. Silvera—l beg to tender one Rein as a
witness. Judge Lowry—What is he to prove?
Silvera—l wish him examined. Judge Lowry
—Then if that is all the answer you have to
make the court, you shall not call' him. SR
vem—l apply for a postponement of this case.
Alexander Currie is a material witness on my
behalf, and he is not present. Judge Lowry—
I won't postpone the case, it shall go on.
Wh,g did you not subpoena Currie ?
I thought he would have been present, but as
he is not, I wish to have him examined as a
witness. I expected him here. Judge
Lowry—You lie, sir. SilVera—l return
the lie to the bench' (thumps the
table). Judge Lowry—Shut your mouth,
sir, or I shall commit you. That seems to
we to be what you want. Silvera (at the top
of his voice, and with great gesticulations)—
If the gallows was near me, and you called
me a liar, and I had to mount it, I would re
turn the lie (thumps the table). Am lin a
British court of justice? Judge Lowry—You
are, sir, and, therefore, I will not postpone
the case. You subpoenaed your witnesses,
and you could have subponaed Currie; but
you waylaid the policeman, and took away a -
letter addressed to Mr. Allwood. Silvera—
It is not the truth; you returned my letter to
the boy I sent with it. Judge Lowry—You
lie, sir; you waylaid the policeman, and took
it away; in short, you stole it; sir. Silvera—
The lie, I say again, is with the bench, and
not with me; am I hot to have justice? Judge
Lowry (to the clerk of the court)—Go on
with the case.
A .Yellow liresinng-tiown in Court.
[Pada Corrempondence N. Y. Herald.]
Talking of morals, a case has this week
been laid before justice by an indignant
father, who has sued a lady, an opposite
neighbor, for watering her flowers at her bal
cony in a yellow negligc, of which the
style was so flowing that the Aspect - thereof
was not very modest in the •eyes of his fard
ily. The lady was requested to select some
other garment for her morning avocations,
:lint She refused to do So. It is probable that
she is an Austrian by birth, and partial to
yellow. Princess Mathilde wore a yellow
satin robe and casaque, trimmed with fur, at
the opening of the Assembly,
and this lady
very likely prefers yellow to the Metternich
.green 'at the opening of her windows. She
was threatened with a law-suit, which, suited'
her, doubtless, and law, proceedings- led her
before the President of the Police Cqurt,
where the following questions and answers
Were exchanged :
President to complainant—State the object
of your suit.
Complainantlt is not a suit at all, Mon
sieur le President;:it is a dressing-gown.
President—What is objectionable in this
garment?
Complainant—ln the first place, it is yel
low, an anti-national manifestation in favor of
outward politics, which the youth of France
have nothing to do with; and besides it is of
such a cut that—
President—Pray, continue,
Complainant—lnstead of ' being high in
front; especially for the purpose of watering
Bowers, it is / very low in the bodice and high
behind.
President to defendant—What is the name
given to the style of your morning robe,
madam?
Defendant—An antique, Monsieur le Presi
dent; Ovsar's wife wore one. [Laughter.]
President to complainant—What family
have you?
Complainant--An only son.
President—How old is he?
Complainant—Twenty-One months. [Grea t
laughter in court.]
,e„,
President (gravely)=l do not think the
morality of your infant is in immediate dart
geri and -the- court, therefore, decides that--
Defendant—The dressing-gown may be
dropped. [Much laughter.]
complainant—Then I must give 'notice to
leavi my present dwelling, as I cannot live
in a house in front of which public morals
are set at defiance.
Another instance of this kind, tending to
correct the loose manners of the age, is
shown at the Porte St. Martin, where we
are to have a review; but the ballet is not to
represent three hundred partially attired
dancers; they arc to be clothed as vegetables.
We are to have a quadrille .• of asparagus,
another ,of turnips and carrots, in which it is
hoped not so much as a chignon will be dis
cernable. M. Fournier, the manager of the
theatre, is thus striding toward reform. The
new song now abroad-is called "The POldii-
DaiSe and the SwallOw.,_" a very innocent title.
It is sung in the comic bingronneric of the
Creve," at the. plies I)ramatiques, and
the music is by Herve. Ido not suppose the
sense of the romance is ,as innocent as the
title, nor as pretty as the music; but I state
that the song is momentarily creating a
fttroie.
English Ittiview of Norwood
Mow the London Spectator, Dec. 7.)
From more than one point of view Mr,
Henry Ward Beecher is a man of mark. No
- popular preacher is in greater favor with the
ladies of New York than the orator of Ply
'mouth Church, Brooklyn, who is no less suc
cessful as a speaker from secular platforms
than as a lecturer from his peculiar pulpit:
His literary publications are read with de
light by his many admirers; moreover, he is
the brother of Mrs. Beecher Stowe. liut.his'
present work shows that a man may be a
fluent preacher, and brother of a clever
woman, and yet break down when he at
tempts to write a novel. Had Mr. Beecher ad
hered to what appears to have been his origi
nal design, and given I* a series of detached
sketches illustrative of village life in New
ill,ngland, his "Norwood . ' might have taken
rank by the side of Miss Mithird's protro.it
tires of village life in Berkshire; bat he threW
away his only chance of rendering his book
acceptable to any numerous body of' readers
when he decided to give it the form of a
long, straggling, pointless three-volume
novel. That his representations of runt
worthies and their ways are faithful to nature,
and executed with conscientious pains, we
admit; but they lack the simplicity and
poetic insight of "Our Village." Moreover,
he is guilty in a high degree of the besetting
sin of popular preachers, who, more than
any other class of educated men, delight in
verbose utterances of common-place thoughts.
Had Mr. Beecher submitted his manuscript
to a critical and fearless editor, with a view
to its amendment for the press, it would
have been reduced by at least one-third of
its words, and would also have been relieved ,
of numerous offences against good taste. Now
that the Southerners are , broken and humil
iated, it ill becomes a Northern partisan to
taunt them with the lack of fortitude which
is said to have characterized their soldiers
when lying in military. hospitals. "Hun
dreds of wounded rebels," says the novelist,
with a partisan's bitterness, at that point of
the book where village life disap
pears in the life of camps, "hadj been
captured,' and • lay among our men, sub
ject to the same kindness. In the hospital
there was peace; wounds were counted as
amicable settlements. The South, impulsive
and unrestrained in the expression of feeling;.
the North, grave and self-constrained, more
apt to repress than to show feeling—both car
ried into battle and, into the hospital their pe
culiarities. The Southern brigades, im
petuous and fiery, charged yelling and noisy.
The Northern men, sometimes hurrahing,
yet oftener sternly silent, put their feelings
into blows. The rebels wounded groaned
and cried out—the surgeon'S knife cut
ivose their tongues.
The Northern wounded
lay quiet, suppressed their groans,- fighting
their pains as stubbornly and silently as they
had fought the rebels." Without accusing
the author of the malignity which some read
er:4 will think they discern if this allusion to•
suffering men who, however , craven they
may have been under the surgeon's knife,
bore themselves right gallantly on many hard
fought fields, we cannot do otherwise than
regret that the triumph of his political cause
has not mollified Mr. B eecher towards its
brave though misguided adversaries.
A Present or a Grave•
Figaro,relates an amusingly exasperating
adventure that recently befel one of its coad
jutors, Noriae, author of "La Betise Hu
inaine." He was sleeping one morning much
at his ease, anntot at all in the mood for
receiving company, when the door of his
room opened, and, there walked in a little
man, short and stout, who seated hiinself
without ceremony on the foot of the bed.
"You are certainly Jules Noriae?" said
the new corner in a strong Meridional ac
cent.
"Yes, sir," replied Noriae, sitting up j and
rubbing his eyes to be. sure that he was
awake.
"I am," pursued the stranger, "a native
of . a small town of Provence, and at my
house every winter I• assemble a society of
my friends—all grocers for wine, oil and
olives. Can you imagine how we spend the
evening?"
`•I have not the faintest idea."
"We read your books. It is I who read
aloud,. with my sonorous and vibrating
voice.'
"Highly - flattered, Monsieur."
"I need not tell you how the time flies,
how the hours glide by unheeded, thanks to
the charms of your, incisive style, your origi
nal method, your sparkling wit."
"Monsieur," observed Noriae, "I do not
detest compliments, but I must say I prefer
to receive them in the afternoon. In the
morning, when one is still fasting, and has
gone to bed late---"
"Ah, you ratty well speak of compliments,"
continued the Provencal, remorselesgly.
"Just hear me out, and don't interrupt me.
Know that the people of the South are not
ungrateful, and like to render homage when
they have enjoyed intellectual delights. At
our last seance I rose, I said in my vibrating
and sonorous voice, 'My friends, we have not
finished here. lam going to Paris to see the
Exposition, and the idea has occurred to me
to call upon M. Noriae ? and make him a little
present in the name of us all.' Bravo! cried
ail voices, as of -a single man. Then came
the discussion concerning an article suitable
to offer. Money was of no use—we knew
that you would squander it immediately; after
much discussion, the true idea dawned (as
usual) upon raj mind, and Heaven has
guided my steps to its accomplishment. The
purchase is effected; the deed is now in my
pocket."
"What purchase, what deed:" cried Noriae,
in a sharp tone.
"How! you do not guess? Prepare your
self for a delightful surprise, then, my friend.
I have brought for you a - concession in per
petuity at Pere La Chaise! In the grande
(tile, if you please, close by the tomb of
Balzac. The soil is dry, because it is to the
slope of the hill, and that is a great advan
tage, for you know dampness decomposes
rapidly, and it would be a pity if you should
crumble to nieces at the end of a year or two.
Come, look - a
little• pleased; here is the deed,
and all ; signed by the authorities. No . one
knows how - soon you may need it, exhausted
as you are by dissipation."
At this moment Noriae leaped from bed
and seized his good Toledo cane.
"Kind Meridional," said he, "I do not wish
to be indebted to you for concessions, and,
therefore, Lmake you that of not throwing
you out of the window, but on condition that
you do me the pleasure of taking yourself off
in the twinkling of a second!"
When Noriae , related this adventure he
added; "I went back to bed and tried to
sleep, but it was impossible; as soon as I
shut my eyes I saw myself interred on the
dry spot, close by Baizac, and the prospect
was not altogether cheerful."
A Curicius Mistake.
The following story is told in an Ohio
paper, and serves as a fresh illustration of
the difficulty of discriminating the difference
" 'twixt twcedle-dum and tweedle•dee." It
appears that there is quite a large and pros
perous colored- settlement in Kings county,
Ohio, composed of thrifty and in some cases
quite wealthy farmers, owning their lands,
and being an orderly and thriving commu
nity:- Until a few years ago these people
had no school of their own, although they
were assessed annually for school purposes,
there being no separate return of, property
by the township trustees, who, though re
peatedly importuned, to do so, always rie
glected to make such return; and the whole
of the school fund went to the support of
the white schools in the township. At length
Aquilla Lett, perhaps the wealthiest person
in the colored settlement, determined to test
thelegal right of the trustees to prevent a
separate return of property for school pur
poses, and to start the question, sent three
of his daughters, nearly women grown, to
the school in the district in which he resided.
Lett, himself, is a mulatto, and his children
of very light complexion, with long, straight,
sandy-colored hair.
The school was taught that season by a
young lady from McConnellsville, and know
ing the subject of controversy she made no
opposition to the admittance of Lett's daugh
ters. But an intense excitement was the im
mediate consequence of the first day's attend
ance of these young colored women ; a meet
ing of the &chool directors was speedily held,
it was resolved that Lett's children should bo
turned out of school,and one of the directors,
a Mr. Jordan, was authorized to enforce the
order. Mr. Jordan was an old man, past sixty
years of age, With eyesight somewhat im
paired, and who knew but few children in
the district.
On the following day he repaired to the
school, which was then in session, and said
to the teacher: "I understand that three of
Lett's children arc attending school here."
On being informed that such was the case,
he stated tliat thc directors had authorized
him to expel them from the school, and
wished her to point them out to him. The
teacher told him she had no objection to the
children attending school, and was willing to
teach them, and therefore would not point
them out.
Mr. Jordan, not to be thwarted thus, at
once went to work and expelled three white
children from the school; mistaking them for
Lett's. Of course, this created great scandal
in the district, and in a day or two the Lett
children were expelled and the others rein
stated by the full board of directors.
, This, however, closed the business; for the
colored people have obtained their proper
proportion of the school fund, and have since
maintained a schoolof their own.
From our latest Edition of Yesterday,
Latest by Atlaniic Cable.
LoNnoN, Dec. 27, Noon.—Another of those
fiendish outrages, which have characterized the
operations of Ole Fenian Brotherhood, has just
been perpetrated at Dublin. Telegrams received
from there to-day give the following parti
culars:
An unusually large number of letters have re
cently been received at the post-office at Dublin,
directed to prominent officials. Each one of
these letters was loaded with explosive com
pounds designed to kill the person addressed.
Beveral ' of them exploded befdre their real nature
was ascertained, but up to this time no person
hos been killed.
One of the city policemen, who received a let
ter, was horribly mangled by the explosion
which occurred when he opened it. It is not
known how many of these dangerous Missives
have been despatched. Considerable excitement
prevails in Dublin and elsewhere throughout the
country, on the discovery of this latest Aldan
outrage. The authorities are actively investiga
ting it, and will no doubt-probe the matter to the
bottom.
The Times of this morning has an editorial ar
ticle on the Fenian question, and • says that no
less than 50,000 special constables have been
sworn In, and are now serving in London. The
writer calls attention to the great public danger,
and asks the provincial cities and towns to emu
late the precautionary measures of the metro
polis.

Soldiers' and Sailors' Conirention.
[Special Despatch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
WAsiinvoroN, Dec. 27.—The committees‘, ap
pointed at the meeting of the representatives of
Soldiers' Leagues _throughout the country. held
here two weeks ago, to communicate with va
rious military parties as to the propriety of hold
ing a National Convention of Soldiers and Sailors
next May, to nominate a Presidential ticket,
report that responses have been received, ap
proving the plan, from a number of prominent
military officers, including two of three who are
Governors of States. Another conference is to
be held here on the eighth of January next,
when an address is to be prepared,
and the time and place for holding the Conven
tion decided upon. The leaders of the move
ment advocate the plan for holding the Conven
tion at Chicago the woek previous to the Re
publican National Convention, and then proceed
to nominate such a ticket as the latter will be
compelled to accept,- or take iSBIIO with the sol
diers of the country.
Tho secret of the entire matter is that the Con
vention will be held to further the designs of
some candidate for the Vice Presidency, who
hopes, by obtaining the nomination of the sol
diers. that it will - likewise place him upon the
Republican ticket. None but those cor..:_:ected
with the movement seem to doubt but that
the Convention will declare for Grant for the
Presidency.
A Fight foiAnother Office.
[Special Despatch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.)
'WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.—1 n the absence of some
other vacant office to fight over, the politicians
about this city have turned their attention to the
Solicitorship of Internal Revenue, and there is a
host of applicants for the position. The
"Whisky Ring" have not produced their
candidate yet, but when there Is any
probability of an appointment being made,
there can be no doubt but that they will
appear here in force and commence to urge their
claims by threatening Secretin7 McCulloch or
Commissioner Rollins. The former is decidedly
averse to making any appointment for the posi
tion at present, and hence the announcement
that "so and so" have been tendered this position
is premature.

was transacted in Cabinet meeting to-day. It
was expected that the propriety of removing Gen.
Pope would be under consideration, but upon
inquiry it is learned that the matter was not
brought up at all, and matters of minor interest
only were considered. Neither Attorney Gene
ral Stanbery nor Postmaster General Randall
was present at the meeting.
From Wash [moon.

Colonel George Ward Nichols has added a
Supplement. to his "Story of the Great
March"— one of the most successful war
books published in this country. The sup
plementary chapters, grouped under the gene
ral heading of "After the War," contains
some pleasant sketcheS; illustrating the , char

humor and good feeling of the" soldiers of his
army. Among the new stories told by Col.
Nichols is one called
',l : ,
In the Connecticut valley, ever so many
thousands or millions of years ago, when the
land was lower, or the waters of the. sea rose
higher, there were broad flat beaches which
at each turn of the tide were left bare. Over
these beds of mud ran many animals, enor
mous birds, of whose existence there remains
in our day no evidence:save their huge tracks
imprinted upon - the yielding earth, eternally
fixed there by the succeeding tide, which,
overspead them with a glittering veil of sand,
by and by to harden into stone. A silent,
immutable record that, which tells the stu
dent of to-day the history of ages past.

Britain over the' Continent, the garrulous

centuries ago, the legions of Rome had
camped there, and now and then we read of
excavations which have brought to light
tablets of bronze or weapons of war which
reveal to the curious antiquary another
chapter in the history of gone-by races of
men.
The campaigns and marches of the North-,
em 'armies over the' Southern land will be
remembered in nursery story and thrilling
legend these many years, but here and there
a mark was made which will outlast the
»ientory 'of man—a tale of justice justified,
and printed in blood with letters of fire.
One morning in: the month of February,
i-1;5. a detachment of troops from Sherman s
army were at Work breaking a railroad. This
great host of fighters and marchers had left
the city of Savannah behind them, a gift of
'conquest to the nation. With giant strength,
with noble endurance, and wonderous pa
tienee they had struggled waist-deep through
swamps whieh had been deemed impassable,
they bad built thousands of bridges, they had
swum the treacherous streams, always in the
face and fire of a desperate toe. Tries , were
used to bending and twisting these strips of
iron, destroying these great arteries of
the life of the rebellion. They had
left their mark all the way from Vicksburg,
through Meznphis,across the mountains, over
the hills and plains of Georgia, and now, in
the uplands of South Carolina, they had
reached the great heart of the system, and the
, heart of disloyalty as well, where the great
highways of trade and treason met and sepa
rated to their farthest bound. it was a still,
sunshiny morning, of Sabbath quiet, that of
which I write. Far away to the west the
railroad track ran to a point, and was lost to
the horizam's edge. • All along the way was
marked by light, colunins of smoke, which
lazily lifted themselves into the misty air.
About these swarmed thousands of men feed
s ing the flame. or bending the heated iron into
strange, fantastic shapes, as their fancy or
accident might direct.
In the foreground of this scene there was
r`'Enacted one of thoie solemn dramatic inci
/dents which symbolized
,a nation's history,'
wherein the actors, impressed with one pre
sent, all-powerful idea, unconsciously become
prophets as well. Deft of hand and earnest
of will, a party of workmen soldiers fashioned
the white-heated rails into the two letters
U. S. With many a shout and stern exela-
Elation, the earth was excavated at the exact
point of centre at the great cross-roads. A
massive framework of solid pine soon filled
, the_cavity to.the level of the way. To this_
foundation, with many a strap and spike,
were fastened the iron letters sym
bolic of union, liberty and law; and
when it was all completed, and
K. shone in the sun us if they had
. grown into the soil, a roagh, sunburned sal-
dier of the West r tised his weather-stained
hat from his broad forehead, and with some
thing . of sadness, .and more of, proud coati
dence, and yet with that sublimity of thought
which is the voice of God speaking through
N the people, exclaimed, "There, boys, we've
planted an iron seal right in the centre of re- •
bellion. These fellows shall know that the
United States government has been here and
left its-mark."
A. few months from that day, and the Con
federacy, which for long years had lifted its
haughty front before the power of our arms,
went crumbling to the earth, smitten at its
foundation, a hopeless wreck, an eternal
ruin. The iron seal had made a deeper im
print than the western soldier hoped or
thought, and it shall go - down the coming
centuries the signet of the government of law
and the people.
A Letter Isom General Illeigs About
Street raving in Gerunuriy.
The following extracts are from a letter
from General Tileigs to General Michler :
"DRESDEN, July 27, 1867.—Dear Gen
eral : You are, I believe, now in charge of
the paiing of the avenues, for which appro
priations have been made by Congress, and
of the expenditure of the funds appropriated
for the public places in Washington.
"The streets of the cities of Germany, Den
mark and Prussia, which I have lately seela,
are so well paved that I am induced to send
, ' you a few notes thereon.
"The ipavement in general use is like what
we call Belgian. The blocks used are not
large, but they - are laid in regular courses
along the line of travel. I noticed thatlarger
blocks are often used on the margin of car
riage roads than in the more frequented mid
tile of the way.
"Caro seems to be taken to lay the courses
at right angles to the line of travel. In a few
streets they are laid diagonally, but in only a
few. The stones seem to be laid on a bed of
gravel or coarse sand. In the repairs I have
seen making, I saw no other preparation as
foundation, but I am not sure that in first
paving a street some greater and more elabo
rate preparation is not made. The French
Fonts et Chaseer reports will doubtless give
full details. .i.
"Sidewalks here are never paved with
brick. There is generally a line of flags
admitting', of walking in single file; in the
wider and more important streets, two such
lines. The rest of the sidewalk is either
paved as the 'street, sometimes worse, c. e.,
with cobble-stones, which are torture to the
feet, or else it is paved with small stones
about the size used for concrete or macada
mizing, which are laid in sand or gravel as
close as they'can be placed, points down
and flat base up, and then rammed to a
amooth, , and even surface. 1 These make a
pavement easier to the foot than either flags
er bricks, stud, as the stones are sorted and
laid in patterns, far more pleasing to the eye
than either. A space around every fountain
or statue in 'the public places and streets of
Berlin is paved with.the mosaic. The colors
used are red, gray, black, brown, which
seem to be granites and sandstones, and
white, <which is of marble fragments.
"In tl.e pavement about the monument to
Frederick the Great the pieces of atone
average two square inches surtlice each, or
*fly of them fill a space of ten by ten indica;
white stars ten rayed—with red centres, the
color of the Pavement being red, gray, blue 1
and white.
"This pavement never gets muddy like
our gravel walks. It dries after a shower
quickly, even awe quickly' than brick, and ,
far more rapidly', than tlag-stone. A shower'
briege out the cOlors more vividly , and im- 1

proves its appearance. It is very. pleasant
to the foot, and very ornamental •to the
streets and squares. •
"Shop-keepers in Berlin lay the • whole"
pavement in front of their shops in this rude
and cheap mosaic, sometimes. The name of
the store or number is sometimes introduced
-in block letters—white or black. The expe
rience of these old towns leads them to pave
the whole of their public squares which are
not parks. They are used as market places
—tables or wagons standing all over them.
They are paved as the streets—nearly level=
withvery shallow undulations serving to
carrying off the water to the gully holes of
sewers passing under them. The streets
which come in irregularly seem to continue
their pavement across on the direct lines of
travel. The intermediate spaces are paved
in irregular lines, or laid off into circles, tri
angles, 6:;e., in Which sometimes stones sorted
of different tints are used with good orna
mental effect, and sometimes the decoration
depends upon the coursing above the block.
• "The space in front of such buildings as
the Capitol is, in Europe—as far as I have
yet seen—always paved. The court-yards of
palaces are also paved like streets ; not with
flags or regular cut stones, but with rough
rectangular blocks, like those' used in Bel
gian pavements, and with mosaic of the
small two-inch stone, like Berlin trottoirs.
"Bain and the broom keep MI free from
dust. The waste of gravel and sand east of
the capitol would be much improved by such
a pavement—Belgian on all 'lines much used
by carriages, small mosaic on those
parts used principally by footmen.
"Asphalte is also much used for sidewalks
in the German cities, as in Paris. With us
it is too expensive,. and Ido not find it as
pleasant Lo the foot sus the small stone mosaic
pavement, whose irregularity is sufficient to
prevent the soreness caused by treading
always upon a flat, hard, stone surface, which
presses the same parts of the sole at every
step, without any relief or change. My feet
have been in a good condition to test the
quality of pavement since I have been here,
for, since my sickness, a little walking
makes them very sore.
How Lord Hos'e'd Great, Teleicope
was Made.
The • London Guardian, speaking of the
great telescope of the late Lord Posse, tells
how it was made " Lord Bosses - speculum
is six feet in diameter, and its focal distance
—that is to say, the distance of the point at
which the reflected image is formed—is fifty
three feet. This necessitates a wooden tube
of rather more than that length, and at least
seven feet in diameter. Let the reader figure
the difficulty of suspending such a tube
heavily weighed at one extremity with four
tons of metal cast into the shape of a
mirror, provided at the upper end with
the movable galleries for the obser
vers, and the whole capable of smooth
though limited motion, and he will have
some notion of the easiest part of the pro
blem which Lord Bosse had to solve. For
by far the most difficult part was the casting
and polishing of the mirror itself. These
four tons of tin and copper, mingled in defi
nite proportions, had to be cast into the
shape of an exact paraboloid, and the whole
surface raised afterwards to a faultless polish.
Three huge iron crucibles in three separate
furnapes held these vast masses of fusing
metal, which, after three hours exposure to
the heat, were lifted out by huge cranes and
poured into the carefully prepared mould.
"The spectacle of that casting must have
been a sight fit only to he described in the
'Song of the Bell.' It took place at night.
`Above'—vive quote from Mr. Weld's pictur
esque description in his 'Vacations in Ireland'
—'the sky crowded with stars seemed to look
down auspiciously on the work; below, the
furnaces poured out huge columns of nearly
mono-chromatic yellow flames; and the ig
nited c rucibles. during their passage through
the air, were fountains ot'red light, produc
ing on the towers of the castle such accidents
of color and shade as might almost transport
fancy to the realms of enchantment.' And
when the crucibles dischargel their seething
contents, 'for several minutes the metal
rolled in heavy waves like those of heating
quicksilver, and broke in a surf of fire on the
sides of'the mould.'
"This, however, was only the first pro
cess. For sixteen weeks the moulded metal
was left in the annealing oven, and when it
was withdrawn it had still to undergo the
delicate and hazardous operation of grinding
and polishing. These were successfully
affected by a small steam engine, imitating
with the utmost nicety the ligat touch of the
human hand—the only instrument which
had hitherto been thought capable of this
work. Not even yet, however, had the
speculum passed all its dangers. The con
struction of the framework which was
to support it was a problem of no
small difficulty. The slightest strain or
flexture is sufficient to distort the image of a
star. It was necessary to support the specu
lum by a pressure which should tell with ex
act equality on every portion of its surface.
A most ingenious contrivance of a system of
triangles, carrying at their angles eighty-one
brass balls capable of revolving, freely, sup
plies this want. On these balls the speculum
reposes with an absolute uniformity of pres
sure; through the changes of direction com
municated to itr - by the universal joint by
which the whole vast apparatus is connected
with its foundation in the earth.
"This is a brief sketch of the many diffi
culties which had to be overcome and the
many problems which had to be solved in
the construction of this great telescope. We
have enumerated them in order that due meed
of fame may be assigned to the genius, perse
verance, industry and munificence which tri
umphed over all. All this was done by Lord
Rome himself.- The powerful and delicate
machinery required for all these nice and
difficult operations was conceived and ma
tured in his brain. The workmen who exe
cuted it were trained by , his care and
worked under his own eye. The whole
vast expense was defrayed from his own re
sources."
