A New Scientific Enterprise. Conscious of th« Interest which our readers lake in the advancement of Sci­ ence we present above a view of the new Warner Observatory, which is being erected at Rochester, N. Y. This institution would seem designed to add very materially to the cat.se of American Science possessing as i t does certain ad­ vantages heretofore unknown ai.d mu >h may reasonably be expected from its inauguration. { The cause of Astronomy in the United States is comparatively in Its infancy but sti l l i t has made very great strides which will unquestionahl}* be surpassed in the future. Space will not permit a lengthy account of all that hue been done but the following are a tew of the leading discoveries by American As­ tronomers. Prof, l lall , of the Washington Observatory, was the fortunate discoverer of the two Moons which accompany Mars, ami no event ot the present century in this special Held has been of greater importance. American astronomer* dis­ covered the separation of Bielhi\ comet into two parts, and in 1848 Prof. Bond found the eighth satelli te of Saturn. This discovery by Prof. Bond was follow­ ed in the year 185(1 by the discovery of the transparent^ ring of Saturn, both of which events relieved the greatest credit upon the country comparatively des­ ti tute as It then in telescopic facili t ies. In addition to th>*se great discov­ eries Pitofs. t l inteiHUwwer^i^iil plauet^.jlurl tal eclipse of 1878, uTiile over a thousand double and triple st?<T8.' niVMhe f ifty asteroids and fifteen new comets have been located in the heavens through the researches of the United States. This is a record ot which all may be pmu<! The new Observatory &i Rochester Is specially designed to further this very work. I t is intended as a point of discovery rather than as an institution of record and there can be li t t le doubt that It will bring out much that is new.-- The original idea was to build a tower and residence of moderate proportions, but the financial successor Mr. II . VV. Warner, who made the original endown- ment, ami is the proprietor of the Safe Kidney and Liver Cure and other rem- edies,induced that gentleman, to expend much more upon the building , ground and instruments ami thus enlarge the place to their present dimensions. Prof. Swift who has found so many comets and also two intraniercurial plan­ ets in 1878 will havn charge of the VVarner Observatory, and devote his entire time to the work of the institution. The new telescope is to be twenty-two feet in length while the lens is sixteen inches in diameter, being the third lar­ gest in size of the telescopes now in use in this country. While America is so greatly distinguished by its inventions and grand enter­ prises there Is much to indicacate that i t will take an equally high rank in the realm of discoveries, and i t may also be predicted with a reasonable degree of certainity that astronomy will eventually find i ts highest advancement at the hands of American investigators. OCK WASHINOTOM COKKKSPOMOENT. Washington. D. C.. October 11.1890, EDITOR PL.AINI>KAI.ER:--Wade Hampton at Cincinnati pledg­ ed northern D»mocrat« 138 solid votes lor Hancock. This solid vote was un­ der a slight embarassment during the four years they were enforcing their demand for a change of government by the use of musketry and cannon. Tills vote wns solid during that struggle In all that represented states' rights, and Southerners opinions. It has been a solid vote all these years in Its devotion to the 'iost cause." It Is solid now !n its determination to ac­ complish by the election of Hancock the purposes that were temporarily postponed at Appomattox. The utter­ ances of Hampton, Toombs ,H»I1, Black burn and other southern orators, the drilling under the rebel flag by stud eiits in military academies and in Fourth of July procession, are indica­ tions that this vote is likely to remain solid for yenrs to come. There are other evidences that show that these Southern leaders do not in­ tend to let the spirit of the rebellion die. A distinguished Southern clergy­ man says the whisper of a mother shall be the future boom of cannon it; defense of the "lost cause." Within eight of tiie dome of the Capitol in Virginia and Maryland the chilJreu ^tudy the "New School History of the United States of America*' by J. S. Blackburn, Alexandria, Va. and W» N McDonald, A. M., Louisville, Ky., pub­ lished by W. J. C, Dunlauy & Co., Baltimore. It is illustrated by pic­ tures of Calhoun. Lee, Johnston, Davis Jackson and others. Calhoun, it says "was a statesman and it was the aim of his life to strengthen the South, so that she might resist the encroach­ ments of her rights by the North." It teaches that Lincoln was a sectiotai candidate, who joined to his political opinions the prejudices of liis party.-- Ellsworth it pronounces **a famous rough and circusrider." Of the secession of the Southern States it Says: "The departure from the halls of Congress 'vas an occasion of solemn leave taking. Some hurled defiance to their political enemies, others, oppressed with a fee use of com­ ing evil appealed to the magnaulmity of t heir opponents."

EDITOR PLAIHDELER:--With yonr permission, I will give my reasons why I vote the Republican ticket, and It may influence some other man to vote likewise. I can see now no alternative but retaining the great Republican party in power or yielding ap the govornment of the country into the hands of the very men who onee waged a bloody warfare to destroy It. It seems to me that no patriot can long hesitate In his decision as to which par­ ty he will adhere in the coming great political contest. It will decide whether or not the interest of the Americas people, now so prosperous am! happy, shall be held in the hands of those who> have, served us so faithfully ami, well* or given over into the possession of mew opposed to freedom of thought, free­ dom of speech, freedom of the ballot and the liberty of the press. Can &r>f freeman of the north, who loves hie Country, be willing to surrender, the well being of this great nation ins* the hands of know traitors and rebels against our government, the best 4 that earth affords. There doebttes* are many professed Demoowtts among us who do not understand how this matter stands, ami suppose that the Democratic party is, as it once was In old Jackson time, an honest party, btitr if they will look over the field',, they will soon discover that the party to­ day is entirely under the control o^ the traitors and ex-rebels1 of the Sontbem States, who aie determined to gain by the ballot what they lost by the buffet. The vital question now is. Shall w« permit them to do it? May God Air- bid. Wade Hcmpton has promised the solid vote of all the States, which en­ gaged in rebellion to overthrow this Union, for Gfin. Hancock, their pliant tool, whom they will use as the potter does clay, if they can but elect him.-- Should not this threat of a solid South­ ern vote which etui be secured only by the shot gun and counting-out policy for the Democratic party,, he met by a solid vote of a solid North in favor of eqnal civil and political rights to al! men? Does any northern man, who Is bless­ ed iu the full enjoyment ef all his rights tinder the ConsiuuUon of oar country, desire to see tiie reael pre- le.-t^ed to the Un?o,i soldier? Does he wit>h to have the countrjbtased to pajr tbebunared of tnlllUMM ef DojBtfsof that are S&rThe amendment to Art. 10, of the State Constitutivn, which is to be voted for or against at the next elec­ tion will , if adopted, do away with elections on "off years," and provide against the re-election of sheriffs and treasurers. The following is the amendment: ARTICLE 10.--SECTION 8.--In each county there ghall be elected the fol­ lowing county officers, at the general election to be held on the Tuesday after tiie first Monday in November, A. I). 1882: A County .Judge, County Clerk. Sheriff 'and Treasurer, and at tl ie election to be held on the Tuesday aftjr the first Monday in November, A 1>. 1884, a Coroner and a Clerk of the Circuit Court (who may be ex-olHce Recoider of Deeds except in counties, having titU'OO ;md more inhabitants, in which comities a Recorder of Deeds shall he elected iit the general election in 1SS-1.) Each of said ollleers shall enter upon the d'. i t i»*s of his office, re­ spectively, on the tirst Monday of De­ cember. after his election, and they shall hold their respective offices for tl io term of four years, and until their successors are elected and qualified.-- PROVIDED that no person having once been elected to the office of Micrifl or Treasurer shall be eligible to re­ election to said office lor four years after the expiration of tl ie term for which he shall have been elected. An exchange tells the following story: A day or so ago the engineer of a train near Montreal saw a laree dog on the track barking furiously. The engineer whistled, but the dog paid no attention to the noise and re­ fused to stir . Tliedog was run over and killed. The engineer notioed that the animal crouched close to the ground as i t was struck by the cow­ catcher. A minute later the engineer saw a bit of white muslin fluttering ou the locomotive, and he stopped the engine. Ou going back to where the dog was killed, i t was discovered that not only the dog but ^ li t t le ohiid had been killed. I t was then seen that the dog had been standing guard over the child, and had barked to attract the attention of the engineer. The faith­ ful animal had sacrificed his l ife rather than desert his charge. TnK "New Process" Flour, manufac­ tured by Hanly xfc Sons, McHenry, is giving unusual satisfaction wherever us,ed Ask your Grocer for i t . mr Among the "countless poetic truths and arguments of Col. Ingersoll none perhaps afe more beautiful and more strictly true than the following, which is taken from his Rockford speech. He said: "1 know and appre-> eiate what our l iberty has cost. We are to-day reaping the benefits of the • offering of every hero who ever died. We are reaping to-day tlie benefits conferred upon us by our heroic dead> We are to-day, a great, a united, and a splendid people, simply because some­ body was great and grand enough to die that we might liv e. Now do you believe if the dead could rise from their graves--the men fallen on all the battle fields of the war--could they rise from tiie unknown graves that make this continent sacred, how would they vote next November? Think of i t . Let us be true to tl ie memory of every man that ever died for us. "Let me ask you another question: IIow do the men wto wished to destroy this government, wish you to vote how? How would every Rebel in the South, could he have come to the North, have voted in 1864? How would every Rebel in the South, could he have vis­ ited the North, how would he have voted in 1808, in 1872, in 1876? How would Jeflerson Davis vote If he were in the North to-day? How would the men who starve J our prisoners at An- dersonville and Ltbby,--and Anderson- ville and Libby are the mighty wings that will bear the memory of the Con­ federacy to eternal infamy,--how would the men who starved our brave bays there vote if they were in Ill inois now? Every one of them would hur­ rah for Hancock." flgy'She dresses quietly," is the comment of one of tl ie fashion journ­ als ou a well known bolle. I t is an ab­ surdity. When a woman dresses there is more rattl ing round of shoes and oorsets, and banging about of wash bowls »nd pitchers, and calling for this and for that, and slamming doors and breaking off bureau knobs, and--and-- and we have often wondered how the mirror stood is so well. We don't be­ lieve that a woman ever dressed quiet­ ly, but of course we don't know. How should we 'it--New Haven liegiater* (iraut had 120.384 men; Lee on 63,000. Notwithstanding he attacked the Federals, inflicting heavy loss." To impress the minds of scholars with the supreme prowress of Southern troops questions are framed to draw forth answers most favorrble to the Southern side. Those questions relating to the battle of Gettsburg are examples of this -method of teaching history. "Ques­ tion: How did the first collision ter­ minate? Answer: By the defeat of the Federals. Question: Why did not the Confederates occupy Cemetery Hill? Answer: Because the Federals were reinforced. Question: Why did Lee withdraw Into Virginia? An­ swer: Because his amuuitiou failed." "The men in the Suutli were peculiarly tilted by blood, climate. Institutions and education, to couteud i i defense of their rights witli a world in arms." This History had passed through ten editions in 1879. With this kind of education the young are receiving in the solid South, the bourbons will be prepared to furnish from these young "ideas who will know how to shoot" solid votes or rebel bullets as the case may require. It is high time for the north to awake out of bleep. These are. some of the Democratic reasons why the North t should surren der the control of the Government to tlie bourbons. The Union men of the North conquered the rebels, preserved tlie Union and gave the country peace which was bad for the Democracy.-- They secured the adoptiou'of amend­ ments to the Constitution giving free­ dom, franchise ami civil rights to the slaves, measures that southern Demo­ crats have trampled under their feet.-- They pensioned Union soldiers,sailors, widows and orphans which uiuWi dis­ gusted Southern Democrats. fhey destroyed "wild cat" money legalized tiie best currency iu the world based on Gcvernment bonds instead of the rotten securities of the repudiating Democratic States, millions saved by making currency of equal value every­ where, reduction of the annual Interest $71,313.716.(K), and the interest bearing debt 9628,538,193.00, maintaining the National credit, opposition to flat money, responsibility for resumption, fostering American industries, collect­ ing Government money without steal­ ing it, protecting American laborers, making greenbacks worth 100 cents on the dollar, refusiug to pebsiou Jefl Davis, these are some of the heinous offenses of the Republican party which Are a stench in the nostrils of the bull­ dozing patriots who promise 138 solid votes lor Haneoek. Colby Bros., have just received a full line of Youth's and childrens clothing, and can now fit any from Ave years old up. Their stock of clothing is com­ plete in every particular, to which they invite the attemlmiof the buying publk\ Does any patriot desire II slon of free speech and a free ballot ' :i any pV*t of our land ? Xo It cannot be. All such will shun the Democratic ticket as they wrould a v:per. * But says one. •* We are going to vote for a northern man and a Uuioii Gen- erel. He surely wont go with the ex> rebels in all their schemes to over­ throw the new amendments to the constitution, of our country, which grant civil and political liberty to all men in the land." To such I would say, be not deceived. If Gen. Han­ cock Is an liouorable man, lie would not accept the nomination of a party, and after his election, go back on that party and refuse to do its bidding. No Democratic President was ever yet known to do it,and Hancock will not, as evinced by his famous order No.40^, Issued at New Orleans, in which he violated tlie law of the land, in order to please rebels and lay tho founda­ tion for his nomination to the Presi­ dency. Gen. Hancock will be to th* Democratic party (two thirds of whieb is cqmposep of ex-rebels.) what the taillft to the kite. He will be jerked this way and that according to the fitful movements of the tr&tteroo* Democratic party, whose kite is buoy­ ed up and tossed about by tlie poison­ ous winds of state rights, iudlitic*tiaih secession and rebellion, wluvlt hlow toward the harbor of disunion,aiMrclijr and mineth the nation.
