It is dated June 26th, 1876, and it came promptly to hand June 13th, 1882, the recipient being Maj. Graham Daves, y,rho is now in charge of the Atlantic Coast Line of fice in Charleston, and the writer Gen. M. P. Tai lor, of this city.

There has been an extraordinary out burst of sun spots within the last ten days, l-ast week a spot resembling in its general appearance and its position upon the disc the great spot that accom panied the" magnetic storms ef April, crept slowly around the eastern edge of the sun, advanced with the revolution of the orb, until a few days ago it was weU situated for observation. The area covered by this outburst of spot is a tri angular figure containing, in round numbers, a thousand millions of square miles of the solar surface. The disturb ed region is visible as a black dot with out a telescope, when the eye is protect ed by a smoked or deeply colored glass. FRIDAY, JUNE 23. 1882. Samaritan Xervine.
