There were noiotermcnts in Bellevne Cemetery this week. Ex-Senator Sharon's daughter. Lady Hesbetb, is coming from England to console her father over the Hill affiic tion, which proved such a mountain of matrimonial difficulty to the San Fran ciscojury which endured the protracted trial for divorce. A member of the Institute of France has proposed a scheme for the founda tion of a number ot annuities of the va! ue of 2,000,4,000, and 6.000 francs to aid scientific men in the prosecution of ex perimental work, offering to subscribe himself 5 000 francs toward the realiza tion of the scheme. Senator-elect Stanford, of California and New York city, is one of the four great statesmen who went into Central Pacific comparatively poor men and came out millionaires this famous quadrilateral being composed of Leland Stanford, C. P. Huntington, Charles Crocker and Mark Hopkins. We publish, by request, on the 3rd page, the "old but ever new" poem, entitled: 'The Blue and the Gray.'' The origin of this is in doubt, but from information gathered from tbe most reiiable sources we think that Judge F. M. Finch, is to be accredited with the authorship. It is singularly beau tiful and tender, and can never grow stale while patriotism finds an abiding place in the human breast. It was in spired by a newspaper paragraph stating that, two years after the close of the war. the womon of Columbus, Mississippi, had shown themselves im partial in their offerings made to the memory of the dead, strewing flowers alike on tbe graves of the Confederates and ot the Federal soldiers. The din of the politican conflict is hushed and the smoke of the battle has cleared away, and now that we have attested our devotion to Republican institutions and Democratic principles will it not be in decency and in order to exhibit a lit tie genuine patriotism and philanthropy by renewing the agitation of a Home, or the granting of pensions by the State, for the needy and deserv. ing men who by their valor and forti tude wrote, with their blood, the bright est and most glorious pages of her his tory? lo our recent strile it required little more than the free shedding of ink and other fluiids. but in those days that tried men's souls something tbL-ker and ot a deeper crimson was requisite. The relics of the "Lost .Cause" are justly the foremost patriots of history. Many of them are needy, and it is, in deed, hard in their age and infirmities o eat the bitter bread of penury or compulsory charity. We boast of our patriotism and then allow the heroes wtio won for us the claim of patriots to go unprovided for. These brave men in their long, fierce, bitter struggle for bread have been forced to the conclusion that patriotism i a poor possession and war a bad in vestment. To-day the South is vieiog with the North in her love for tbe "brother in black" and has al most wept the foqntion of her tears dry orer his condition, and her bowels of compassion have yearn -d over, and tbe cockles of her heart bunset to-morrow afternoon at 2 minutes past 5 o'clock. 7 The receipts of cotton at this port to day foot up 258 bales.

In cossequence of this, there will be no services to-morrow forenoon at the First Presbyterian Church. Rev. J. W. Primrose, of the Second Presbyterian Church, will preach at night, at which time the usual collection wiil be taken up. A Weather Sisru. .Next Monday, the 2nd of February, is the day on which it is said the ground-hog comes out from its winter's retreat and prognosticates the weather Tf it sees its shadow, that is, if the sun shines, it goes back into its hole, and remains six weeks longer, durinz which period wintry weather'will con lmue. Our readers can prove the truth or falsity of thi3 old tradition by noti cing next Monday whether the day is bright or cloudy, and then sec what the weather is for the next six weeks. The Lecture Last Night, Prof. Proctor delivered his secoud and last lecture last evening to an au dience equally large and cultured as the one which graced tbe Opera House the previous night. The subject of his lecture was "The Sun," about which he discoursed most felicitously, giving his hearors a great deal of new and curious information respecting this grand old monarch of the skies. To the better informed portion of his audience tbe lecture last night was, perhaps, more interesting than that of the previous evening, but the majority, doubtless, were better pleased with the former. Th3 only objection to be urgedj against the lectures, is that he is too rapid of utterance. There is a vast amount of mere conjecture in all scientific knowl- enge, so-called, theory conflicting with theory; and the majority of even people ofGulture are less informed upon the subject of astrouomy than that ot any other science hence the difficulty in keeping pace with the distinguished lecturer. The audience manifested its appreciation by the most earnest atten tion and once or twice by applause. ' Prof. Proctor's visit to Wilmington will long be remembered by those who heard him, and, we trust that some at least may be induced to pursue that grandest and most fascinating of oil studies. Some Corn. Mr. R. S. Murray brought into our office to day a curiosity in the shape of an ordinary ear of corn with five small ears growing around and attached to it, makinix ears in all.

Stir copy COMMUNICATED Mr. Proctor's lecture last night was a rare treat for those who have taste for and have made the great science of astronomy a study. It requires many years for men even of such talent as Mr. Proctor to master tbe subject, (in so far as it can be mastered,) and ofj course, it requires years of reading and thought for other men to grasp even the ideas ot the wonderful problems, involv ed. Iijut Mr. Proctor has the faculty lor making abstruse ideas and facts tolerably plain. He explained briefly in the outset the theory of the genesis of the 6olar system, as held by the great Laplace, Herchell and others in the past, and which is taught by such men as Winchell, Steele and others of to day (tbe planets being thrown off from the sun) and expressed his disbelief in that theory. He gave many interesting figures as to distance, s ze and con stituent elements of the sun, which very materially differ from those given in many of the scooF- books. He said the siza of the sun is greater than that of tbe whole planetary ma:ter, not f50 ; times nor 0, as some of the books say, J. D.
