F. lower than the dry bulb, thus furnishing pesitive proof that air is. aphvdrinted, ns well a8 cooled and warmed, by paselng it-through a duct laid in a atratun of carth known to have a tetnperatire of about 50 jeu.

By placing o tin veseet filled with tco and salt, fn the discharge ond of a sub-carth nir-duct, the exterlor of the vessel soon hecame covered with a heavy coating of frost. ‘The frost is, of course, the congealed vapor remaining in alr trusinit- ted by the aub-carth duct, and proves tit the air {snot thoroughly dricd in passlug through the duct; yet it is so dry that plain shect-rou pipes forming the discharges of alr from a suo- earth duct are not rusted, even when they have been in constaut use for years, and under all conditjons of the external atmosphere. At Is also found that air fully saturated, as well ns that {ina very dry condition, when it enters the fopress shaft of a sub-carth alr-duct, Is de- Hvered to the building in the same condition as to both temperature and dryness. It is also found that ducts of proper length and depth marvelousy tuintain tielr patency for botn coollug air transmitted by them dur ing protracted heated terms, and warmiug it for a lige period of very cold weather, Now there must be brought to bear on the walls of the dart, and on the surrounding earth, some coinpensating Influcnce not generally un- derstood, thut so operates that verytdryfand very hurold air transriitted by tt with be deltvergd Into the building of about the same tempera- ture and dryness, nnd nelther condition of the air seems to impair the cooling or the warming power of a sub-carth duct.

I say “sup- posed,” for this movement fora change in the hours of labor never had any logical connection with those Sociatistic {deas which have been so nersistently pushed into prominence by men who are unacquatuted with the theory of our Governinent, Jt is true the leaders of the Communists haye endeavored to capture the eight-hour men to galn sympathy for their party, but the attempt has been a failure. One of tho lending argumenta of the oppo- nents of the movement is that itis unjust to ru duco the hours of labor without a correspond. ing reduction of the wages reeclved. ‘This urgzu- ment funores the maln idea of the movement. T deny that the Iaborer now receives as grout a proportion of the profits of the products of his Jobor as he should, and this movement js for the purposo of having a readjustment of the rel- ative shares Which labor and capital should re- celve for their Joint contributions in the pro- duetlon of manufactires.

England's Estimate of Our Export Business London Globe, a ‘The Untted States way justly claim tobe “go- ingahend" fu thetr export business, whatever may be thought of their boasted progress in other directions, Unbappily for us this form of prosperity chances to be the very one mont Ukely to be secured at our expense. For while our transatlantic consing are sending us largely increased quantitics of thelr goods every year, they show tess and less tuclination to return the favor by taking our commodities. From some valuable statistics publisted in the Manchestor Courler,{t appears that while the yalite of the total exports from the States was only £50,123,805 to 1868, It had reached £141,314,400 In 1878, being au increase of £35,002,855, ur at the rate ol about £8,600,000 per annum. in the leat year, however, of this decennial period -the Increase was close on £19,000,000, @ stron indication that the competition our manufacturers encounter from this quarter ts likely to become more and more embarrassing, On the other hand, the net imports of merchandise have fallen aif stendily since 1872, althougl Lhe copulation must now be cons{derably Jarier than ft was at the former date, snd the demand for European goods ought, therefore, to be 60 much the greater.

Find- Ing the President still unmoved, they erled out, “if you don't back down we will refuso you 000,000." As this threat had no effect, they finalty held back $600,000 and ran away, It was aremarkably woll-developed case of ‘the small end of the horn.” i Speaking of the encouraging prospects of o Republican victory in the next Prealdential elec tion, Seeretary Evarte sald: , : “1 think we ought to'carry thres or four Southern States. ‘The best ‘clusses_of the Southern people are, ‘gle of the Bourbon rule nnd ot the unprofitable allfance of thelr. leaders with the Northern Democracy, They are all the white told by their Northern allies to Keep quiet, and not to show thelr heads above the hatches, test they should arouse the feelings of the Northern peuple, Naturally they begin toask who these Northern propia are that they must be careful not to offend.
