The Pension office, at whose he vl stands the Commissioner of pension attends to the examination of all claims for pensions which are pre seated in accordance with the peri odically recurring grant and appropriations. The office was created bv Congress as early, as in the year 1833. it was transferred from the In war department to the interior," iU significance, however, it obtained only with the late "unpleasantness.1' The bureau with its numerous clork and assistants is locatod in a very unfit building, on the corner ot Pennsylvania avenue and U'.th St. According to existing laws the following named classes of persons are authorised to draw pension: Every officer or soldier of the U. H army, navy or marine corps who h been disabled by wounds or disease while in the service of the country, every captain, helmsman, engineer, mate, sailor or other employee on a who has been dina-bleU. S. in the serv ce to earn his own living thereafter; persons who served in state militia under the U, S command, provided that such claim? Imve been allowed before July 4th. 1874; persons whom old age incapar States to do further marine servic after having served twent years n the navy o.' in the marine corp, it they have not been discharged fi bad conduct; every disabled persoi that has served tec years in the murine, but such receives pension on for a certain time; colored persons who served in the U. S. army during the last war in whatsoever capacity and finally pensioners who have been declared such by s,ieciul corigvef sioi-enactments. Persons who hav serve'd in the war of 1812 again" Great Britain and have not participated voluntarily in the rebellion oi 1801, are entitled to a monthly pension of $3. The word disabled which bused i' the pension acta to designate ti condition of persons entitled to pei i ons, admits of various interpret tiou-- , but it is usually understood it convey the idea that the pensionei or pension claimant hits become unable to attend to his professional oc-rnation. If a neraon him died ainrt-March 4, 1861, on the oonequencet of wounds received or a disease con tracted in the war for the Union, so that he now would be entitled to i pension, if mer ly disabled, his wid ow, or, if there is none such, hii children under 16 years are entitled to the same pension the husband or father would h drawn. Such a pension .begins from the day of th man's death and last for the widow as long m sua ia such, and for the children or child to the completed ICth year of age. If the widow if married again, the pension reverts to the children. For each child ti e pension is increased by $'2. We cannot follow our author into all the details of the nmounts paid for the different kinds of inva. lids and to the different ranks of military and naval pensioners, but will simply refer to some interesting . statistics. Tho pensions are paid out quarterly, on the 4th day of March, June, September and December, by duly appointed agent. Such agoncK aro appointed by the president, to a number of not more than three for a state or territory. Up to last year there existed 63 pension agencies, their number, however, has been reduced materially.

This conclusion is fullv supported by Prussian measurements at Mem el and at Kiel. The electri light ii not swithout bit of its dangers. Some time ago red-ho- t carbon droppd. from one of the lamps of the British Museum to a table usually occapteo by ! readers, and a repetition of tlieaocident a few days later set fire to some loose paper on a table in tho same room. It is conceivable that a single spark might do irretrievable damage to some unique' manuscript or ether literary treasure. To intercept such stray pieces of carbon as may fall in the future, transparent saucers have been hung under the lamps of the reading room; and It has even been proposed to ensure greater security by lighting the room from the outside. While it basloug been known that finhes return each year to about the same place to spawn, recert observation of their habits show that they no tm the left hand side of the stream and comedown on the opposite side. A Norwegian, Ernest Frolich, think he has found in tho Indian rice of American swamps a living Sturl-son'- s proof of the truth of Snorre vmits Ericsson's of Leif hiatory to this country, nearly nine hundred yers age. The voyagers reported finding in Vinland not only an abundance of wild grapes but also a kind of grain which Mr.;r roach believes to have been tho Indian rico, or wild rye. It grows plentifully in swampy localities, as did the grain described by Ericsson. It has been found that a larger amount of ainiionhi exists n the almoxnhere when an epidemic of yellow fever is at its height than at other times, decreasing as the disease lessens. ' In a recent lecture m London, Prof. Graham advised all who must gmoke to do so on the German plan that is, without, expectoration. This becomes easy when the tobacco used is thoroughly dried, as then only a comparatively small quantity of creosote and the tarry products of combustion collect in the mouth. Saliva performs an important part in digestive processes, and its Bupply ahould be htiHbanded. llerr' Fischer thinks the extensive planting of forests in the countries of North Africa would prove much u'ore effectual in restoring those desert regions to their ancient fertility than the proposed inland sea in Algeria. "It is singular,." says Mr. Proctor, "how stronjjly some errors retain hold on men's minds. When Mad' ler announced his belief that Alcy one, tho chief star of Pleiades, is the central stur of the universe, men's minds were attracted by the thought that the stellur system, like the solar system, revolves around a centre. Yet astronomers know perfectly well that the evidence on which Madler based his theory ' was exceedingly I belie, e that no feeble. astronomer ' of repute would now venture to maintain tho theory that Alcyone is the central sun at all. Yet I find that not only is the belief still widely spread among the general public, hut t hat this theory excites far more interest than most of the real discoveries, interesting though tliey are, which have been made during tho Inst half century." 'The researches of Dr. Bollinger show that the milk of cows suffering from tubercular disease may com municate the affection to human beings. As five per cent, of cows ad vanced in life suffer from this dis ease, the doctor believes the danger to be considerable, foiling the milk is not a safeguard, Dr. C. W.
