Graggon, anartist of som val reputation, modeled it in London in 1831. Washington Irving was in England at that time, and he brought to Graggon’s aid the results of his own extensi rch in the libraries and galleries of for his “Life and Voyages of Colum- bus.” He displayed much interest in this work, and the design is strietly in aceordance with Irving’s conception of Columbus. The statue was brought out from London by the British brig Rose Hill, and was landed at Nassau on May 9, 1832. It was intended to erect it in front of the publie buildings oppo- site Rawson square, but this idea was abandoned on count of numerous threats to destroy it.

A Puzzling Problem for Scientists of All Ages. Several theori+ by the that w have been advanced sientists to aecount for the fact have the ever-present phe- nomena known as “light.” The two principal of the many reasons thus set forth by the learned gentlemen who have devoted their lives to such inves- tigation are the emission or corpurcular theory and that known as the undulatory theory. The principals of the emission theory originated in the fertile brain of the philosopher, Descartes, who was born way back in 1 But little at- tention was paid this peculiar theory at that time, and it and Descartes were both almost forgotten when, about sixty years later, Sir Isaac Newton ap- peared upon the scene and enunciated the same doctrine. According to these eminent men, light consists of small particles emitted by luminous bodies, the velocity of its transmission mainly regulating the colors. The undulatory theory, that most generall spted by the rientifie we teaches that the space between the celestial bodies is occupied by an imponderable ether; and that the luminosity of a body*is supposed to be a rapid vibratory motion proceeding from the body in question to the eye. The waves of light proceed in all directions from every luminous point in straight lines; the motions of its particles being supposed to undulate in direction to the lines in which the light travels. The velocity of light is so great that the human mind cannot 1 idea of the rapidity with which According to the best au- es attainable to the writer, the distance traveled by a beam of light in a single second of time is ona hundred and ninety thousand miles. This dis- tance isso great that no perceptible space of time would be occupied in its passage between any two given points on the earth's surface. a transverse A Man “Up a Tree.” The following paragraph is printed in several British Indian papers: “Up a tree.” wrote a native forest subordinate recently in his ¢ “where I adhere with much pain and discomposure while big tiger roaring in a very awful man- ner on the fire line. This is a very in- considerate tiger, and causes me great griefs, as I have before reported to your honor. This is two times he spoiled my work, coming and shouting der, and putting me up a tree. and mak- ing me behave lik ninsect. Iam not able to climb with agility owing to stomach being a little big ng to bad water of this jungle. Chenchu mans ean fly up tree quic' It is a very awful fate tome. Even when I do not see this tiger and he does not make dreadful noise. I see the marks of his hoofs and his nails on the path!” Loved His Dos. An old colored man went to jail in Washington last week for the sake of his dog. He had neglected to pay for a license to keep the animal, for kill the dog he would not. His explanation was that the dog belonged to his child, and about the time he was going to get the tag for the dog his child died. It took every cent that he could beg or borrow to pay the funeral expenses. “And,” he said, “I keep the dog for the sake of the dead child.” He promised to get the tag if the judge would give him further time, but, as the old man had not wrecked a bank or done any- thing in the first-class order of crimes, he had to go to jail.
