and what dowe see? At bright dazzle
comes from the spot in the heavens where
the aim is ; but lii! is siioi'ii ot lus rays.
All around tiie sky overhead is of a deep
azure, like the color of Prwsmiafi blue, a
well-known sign of light imperfectly de
veloped $ just as we sec in the flame of n
candle or gas jet, at the port ofSmperfect
combnstion ; or, to take a better example.
just as t he blue flash of the electric ma
chine is increased.
There Is little light in the air at those
all it inle.s ; the moment the prism by the
gyrations of the car is inclined away from
the direct ray of the sun, there is no
spectrum at all. Manifestly, then, neith
er heat nor light com to ns from the sun
in the manner supposed, namely, traveling
down to us through the empty waste of
space, and decreasing with the square of
the distance. For if thi were the (act,
both light and beat would increase rapid
ly with the lessening distance as we as
c tid whereas light diminishes and heat
wholly disappears ! ,
Calm! v considered, these facts of them
selves not only upset the common theory,
but suggest the true one. Heat and light
are generated, spring into existence, with

SpeakiNO. We quote from John Stuart
Mills' account of the style of the ancient
writers :
" The secret nf-tfrc slyln df the great
Greek and Roman authors is that it is the
perfection of good sense. They never
use a word without a meaning, or a word
which adds nothing to the m ailing. ' It
never entered into their thoughts to con
ceive a piece of writing as bcautitul in it-
sen, abstractedly from what it had to ex- I
press; its beauty must all ho subservient
to the most perfect expression of the sense.
I he perfection of workmanship is only
visible iu the absence of everything which
distracts the mind from the main purpose
It was only-in the decline of ancient lit
ei.it ure that 'ornament began to be cultiva
ted merely as ornament. Kven descrip
trve epithets were one ot the corrupt ions
of style which abound in . Luc m, for in
stance. The word had no business there
unless it brought out some feature rela
ting to the matter in hand. Ornament
for the sake of ornament defeats the very
purpose of the speaker by calling off at
tention from the main object. This, is
the first grand lesson in composition to
be learned from the classical authors."

tance now to bo promptly initiated and
adopted on the re assembling of Congress
is an additional amendment to the Const -tut
ion forbidding disfranchisement, or pro
scription from official trust, oa account ef
race or color, in a State or territory of the
Union. It ia urgently demanded to guar
antee the ballot to Southern colored men,
and to enfranchise many thousand in the
Border and Northern States. Thi me as
ure should not be postponed for the con-
h idem t ion of the forty-first Congress, but
should be promptly acted upon and adopt-
ed by the Fortieth.
"Let us have peace" has been many
times reiterated during the campaign just
closed. One danger before us is the as
sumption that ihe fact of Grant's election
in itself will insure "peace" at the South.
With the triumphant rc-cleci on of Gen.
liiitlcr. and the rell-known desire of most
of the new Southern members for the re
vival of impeachment, we have strong
hopes of the successful consummation of
the impeachment and deposition of John
son by the beginning of the new year.'
With Wade even two months in the White
House, and such tools of treason as Rous
seau, Steedmau and company, of New Or
leans, replaced by Sheridan and other
I trustworthy, loyal men ; with the recon
struction laws properly revised and amen
ded, wirh suffrage and the right to hold
office vouchsafed to the negro every where,
the nation may be well on the way to
wards "peace," having secured its essen
tial conditions before Grant is inaugura
ted. While deliberate and organized in
justice to tho negro perpetuated, the "ir
repressible conflict " will continue, no mat
ter who may be President.
Our many triumphs in the past bave
been won under circumstances of adverse
opposition much more formidable than
anything we are likely to encounter in tho
near future. Opposition we are undoubt
edly to have, bat now, m hitherto, logic
and right are on our side. We have but
to press urgently and pcrsevcringly oar
demand, aud our past successes are a guar
anty ot ultimate complete triumph.
