One of the most wonderful achievement 'of astronomers is the weiMiin-T of th bodies comprising the solar system.: The ', mass of the sun is 359,551 times greater,. than that of the earth and moon, and 70 D times greater than tlic united .masses -?f all the planets. A flash of lightning on the earth wc uld - be visible 9n the moon in a second and a quarter ; on tho sun in eight minutes ; -on Jupiter, (when furthest from us,) ' in twentyfive minutes'"; on Uranus, in two hours; onrNeptnne, in four hours and a " ' quarter; on the star Arcga, of; thc lirst magnitude, in 4,000 years; yet such stars' are yisible through the telescope. La Place, the great French astronomer,' says : "I have', ascertained that between the heavenly bodies all attractions are transmitted with a velocity which, if it bu' not infinite, surpasses several thousand. times the velocity of light." Jlis .annota tor estimates" that speed as being eight railliqns times greater. than that of lights "Daniel Webster once remarked : "Small -is the sum that is required to patronize a newspaper, and amply rewarded is its pation. I care not how humble and un-' pretending is the gazette which ho takes! It is next to impossible to fill a hhect with printed matter without putting in it something worth the subscription prices r Pvery parent whose son is away fronvr home at school, should supp'y him with' ' a newspaper.

A writer in an Oregan paper fr rnislK-s a description of the falls of tho Palou'se river, to which Lc recently made a viit. The falls!.' arc fifty miles from Walla WaJ la. Their exact height is not known, ow-r ing to the difficulty of making an actual measurement. . For miles above and be low the falls the river is confined to a t narrow-canyon, several , hundred feet in , depth. Approaching the falls the chasm makes a sudden turn 16 the wes-t,. when the whole volume of water is precipitated in a fciuglo sheet into a basin below. The height of di fall is estimated at one hun dred and ninety feet It is possible to reach the foot of the fall ly going some distance down the riverj descending into the chasm and clambering over the rocks up the stream: TJtre basin below the" foil is about five hundred feet across, and ncar ly circular in form. This fall is somewhat similar to that on the Snoqualmie iivcr, a stream which enters into Turret hound Q world. 1 ' -r t 1 . - .. . , . 1 L,ntiOipu says tnai an eiepuant as oue day ordereu to launch a fcmp. ine ammai :l ' m a. - 1-1 A. 11 il-; '....1 !.. !... ... x awav ttiat lazrv beast, antl vv t another in . . w . - . . bis stead,"? cried the a?gry ke per.
