The of Harmony cemetery say that the published statement that the body of a wo- man interred there on Sunday last had been removed on Sunday night, is incorrect. Mr. David Fisher, the president of the cemetery association, to satisfy the family of the de- ceased, had the grave opened a day or two ago and the body was found as it had been buried. About half-past 2 o’clock to-day fire was dis- covered by Messrs. Green & Williams over their eenntng-room, corner D and 10th streets, and wpon investigation it was discovered that the lcor in the second story was on fire from the engine used to run the macuinery in the job printing office in that building. It was extin- guished with trifling loss, no alarm being given. ‘THE New Nationat Tueater—The Decora- five Fainting —We have already spoken of the eneral beauty of the new National Theater, ut the fresco painting is of so, high an order and excites so much admiration that a brief de- scription will be of interest. It was executed Mesers. Schutter & Rakeman, of this city, \d demonstrates that we need not go out of Washington to get the finest quality of work of this kind. The principal parts of the flat ceiling are four allegorical figures in octagon panels, eight feet by four and a half.on a sky ground, framed m gold and brown borders, represent- ing Comedy, Tragedy, Music and Terpsichore. Compiementai thereto. as corner ornaments, are, in balf relief, the buste of the heroes of poetry and music in a circle three feet in diam- ameter, in gvid ground, representing Shake- speare, Schiller, Mozart and. Beethoven, en eloved by ornaments in neutral tints, sur- rounded by laurel leaves as emblems of euecess. These ornaments are tastefully connected by festoons of flowers and Pom- Peisn borders. The dome in the center is twenty-five feet in diameter and eighteen feet high, pancile* ultra marine green, pink and French gray styles, with Pompeian bord. ers. From the center of ‘the dome is suspended & magnificent chandelier, which enhances the ‘auty of the fresco.

These walls have a Bondescript tint, which will retleet favorably on the complexion. The size of the ceiling is 80 by feet high, and the work was com- pleted in seven days. ° Tue TREaTEeRs—Miss Clara Morris, whose expressive face and facinations ef voice and manner have made her a great favorite with Washington play-goers, closes her engagement at Ford’s (/pera House to-night, appearing for the Inst time as “Cora,” in “Article 47.” She will be warmly welcomed here if she comes back.

Tue Boarp or HEALTH met last night. A communication was read from Jerome Isradley, =s whether = order had been issued by the of Health for the removal of the bodies interred at Holmead’s cemetery. Mr. Marbury stated that the cemetery had been condemned as a nuisance injurious to health, and an order issued that there should be no more interments there. The secretary was directed to inform Mr. Bradley of these facts. A resolution, offered by Dr. Verdi, was adopted, a the coungil room of the Board of Health | be tendered for the use of the Health Board Convention, to meet in Washington on the 2ist of January, 1874.” Dr. Cox offered a resolution, which was adopted, ‘that the committee of the two houses of Congress on the District of Co- Inmbta be invited to examine the condition of the Board of Health, the nmr in which its duties have been discharged since its organ- ization, its expenditures, &c.” Adjourned. —_~ THE MONEY MARKRT isdaily becoming some- what easier, and the finances of the country are returning to the investments which they sought before the panic. Many people who formerly bought the stocks and ‘bonds of railroads a: other companies are prejudiced against any in- vestments which are under the control of cor- | Pporations. To such parties the real estate loans | secured upon property well located, and which would, in case of foreclosure, readily sell for one-third or one-half more than the amount loaned and costs, commend themselves more strongly thanever. B. H. Warner, real estate broker, 729 7th street, can furnish, at short no. tice, employment for all inactive capital, on well secured loans, from one month to ten years. t Waat « Newsnoy Dons ror mis @oTRER.

Shortly after Mr. Cleveland ,was appointed he sa, some radical changes in building, and the mem! ip promptly seconded him. Under the building a cellar has been excavated and walled up, in which heat- ing a has been placed. The Sabbath- school room has been entirely remodeled, reno- ited and redecorated. The rooms for sovial and religious services have been rearranged. The galleries of the church have been made available for use by a change in the pitch of their floors; the entire auditorium has been frescoed and de fed im the most chaste and ornate style, and the windows provided with cathedral giasa. ‘The fresco of the ceiling and walls is said to be the finest work of the kind in this section of the country. The panels have the palace-car finish, bordered in gilded mouiding, which liks- ‘ise adorns each of the immense arches which 1 elaborate, consisting of the cross and crown, with other emblems, wrought in blue and gold upon a ground of lavender. Below the emblems are scripture mottoes. This work is also bor- dered with fine effect. An imitation screen from Solomon's Temple is at the foot of the decoration behind the palpit. The ceilings and walls of the galleries have been decorated to correspond. ‘he entire decorative work has been done by Messrs. Gibson Brothers, of Phila- delphia, upon plans submitted to and approved the architect, Mr. Edward Fraser, of this city. The new cathedral glass bears circular medallions, in which are scripture embiems. The church floor has @ carpet of red ground, inwrought with vines of light colors, and the pews have crimson cushions. The chandeliers are of blue and gold, so much preterred for church ornaments of late years. Last night the members of the Sa assembled in their lecture room and gave a social reception to Bishop Matthew Simpson and Dr. B. 8.

In the Equity Court on Wednesday last Juige Wylie acted on several cases of divorce, as mentioned in Tae Star of Thursday. The first case was that of Martha R. Shiver against William Shiver. The petition was filed in July last and sets forth that they were married in South Carolina in 1850, and that for four or five ears past defendant has deserted her, and she ad strong suspicions of his infidelity. She charges that he committed adultery in a house on 8th street east in Jnne last. The evidence of the petitioner and another witness was taken by Examiner J.J. Johnson in October, and re- cently an affidavit of defendant was filed stat- ing the amount of income he receives and ask- pe the honorable court to turn over his house- hold furniture to his wife and such reasonable proportion of his income as the honorable court may deem nt and equitable. The court dis- missed the bill because there was no proof of marriage and no specification of person with whom adultery was charged; and because it looks like a case of collusion on the evidence and the bill contains no averment as to that, ae is always required. Besides, the parties have been married “3 years, have one child, to contribute and the defendant seems willing e's support, and the court thinks the to his parties had better settle the matter. He granted a decree in the case of Elizabeth Timberlake against Wm. Timberlake. The petition in this case was filed October 9th last, and sets forth that they were married at Au- rora, Ill., March oth, i870; that they lived to- gether until October Sd, 1s71, and charges that for four years past the defendant has been a habitual drankard; that he repeatedly pawned her —t for liquor; that he twice drew a knife upon her; that he fambled for a living; that for two years past he totally neglected to provide her with the necessaries of life; that for two years past she has been wholly dependent on her own labors ter support; that in Isto the defendant was confined in jail at Lexington, Ky., for fighting. stealing, and resisting offi cer’; three times at Covington, Ky.; at Colum- bus, Ohio, twice for fighting; that he was ar- rested in this city in November, 1871, and sen- tenced to two years in the Alban} for grand lareeny. Mr. J. H. 3 peared for petitioner, and Mr. I took the testimony. andeville ap- 1. W. Garnett Judge Wylie also made a decree inthe case | of Hanson Burnes against Jane L. Taylor. Pe- | titioner states that he married defendant in September, 1565; that they lived comfortably together until 1:70, when, owing toa scarcity of work, he left with the approval of his wite for the state of Alabama, and remained away eighteen or nineteen months; that during his absence, believing her to be chaste and vir- | tuous, be contributed to her support; that on his return he discovered that she had deceived him, and had committed adultery with one | Jobn Contee and others; that shortly after his return she gave birth to an illegitimate child, which she acknowledged was Coutee’s. Messrs. Lloyd and Alexander appeared for petitioner, and Mr. J. H. Mandeville took the testimony. ——— Dr. Sander! Editor Star: A large party of ladies and gen- Uemen met at Dr. Sunderland's church last evening, and forming in procession, marched to his house, where they took the Docior and his family completely by surprise. Judge Edmunds took the lead, as he does in many friendly acts, and among Dr. Sunderland's admirers were seen Senator Ferry, Senator Crozier, Hon. Barbour Lewis, of Memphis; Hon. Mr. Hawley and lady, of I}linois; Mr. Crittenden, nephew of John J. Crittenden, of Kentucky; Mrs. Crittenden and daughter, Miss Coleman, grand-daughter of Mrs. Crittenden; Mr. and Mrs. Ream, Miss Vin- nie Ream and sister, Dr. Bliss, wife and daugh- ter, Mr. Scott and lady, Dr. Ashford and lady, ristmas Party ia mds C Advance. | Miss DuBois, the sons of Dr. Gurley, Prof. and Mrs. Hayden, and many others, well-known. Each guest carried his or her little Christmas present, some of them very valuable, and all dictated by affectionate hearts. I am glad to say there was not a pincushion or @ tract among them,—not that I’m opposea to pincushions. They are good in their way, and useful—pre- cious, too, when made by hands that we love. but minister’s wives and daughters have so much todo with fairs that I should think they would hate the sight of them. Well, when the presents were showered in, the Doctor and wite were so completely astonished that all the: could say was: “Oh! oh! what a surprise!” an. afterwards, when the things were arranged tor inspection, the Doctor went around declarin, that each article was the very thing he hat been longing for above everything elso—the poor, dear Doctor! God bless him! Soon after the arrival of the self-invited guests, a young lady, who had brought a hand- | Some dressing gown, asked him to try it on; it was very becoming, and some one suggested that his new overcoat would look well over that; and finally the ladies, bringing some shirts, insisted upon his putting them on over the overcoat and dressing gown, which he tried to do, with the assistance of Senator Ferry ant Judge Edmunds, amidst peals of the mérriest =e ter. ¢ Doctor and his family were all command- ed to stay in the parlor by Mrs. Dr. Bliss, who took possession of the dining room, where she sat forth, of herown making, good old-tasi- loned cake and splendid coffee. ‘This little affair was a genui love for the good Doctor; and friendly satherin is worth all the germans and fashionable partes that were ever given in ‘Washington.

He says In connection with modern views of science we hear 80 much of evolution and evolutionists that it is worth our while to ask if there is any | such procesé as evolation in nature. Unques- tionably yes. The law of evolation, however, #0 far as ite working is understood, is’ law con. troling development and keeping types within appointed cycles of growth, which revolve for- ever upon themselves, retarning at appointed intervals to the same starting point and repeat ing through @ succession of phases the same course. These cycles have never been known to oscillate or to into each other; indeed, the only structural differences known between individuals of the same stock are monstros- ities or peculiarities pertalning to sex, and the latter areas abiding and permanent as typo mt Ss +s + he he The excitement produced by the publication of The Origin of Species may be fairly com pared to that which tollowed the appearance of Oken’s Nature: Philosophic, over fifty years ago in which it was claimed that the key bad becn | | | found to the whole system of organtc lite. Ac- cording to Oken, the animal kingdom, in all its diversity, is but the presentation in detail of the organization of man. Tne parallelism was drawn with admirable skill and carried into th secondary divisions, down to the families and these views, in which the scattered elements of organic life, serving distinct purposes in p lower animals, are gathered into one stra combination in the highest living being pealed powerfully to the imagination, In many they were welcomed with an enthasiasm euch as ts Shown there for Darwinism. Kagiand was lukewarm, and France turned a cold shoul she at present does to the theory of the English 0 The infinence of the Jussicux was deeply felt in western Earope, and perhaps saved French naturallsts from falling into a fancifal but at tractive doctrine, numbered now among the ex ploded theories of the past. * = * The most advanced Derwinians seem re- luctast to acknowledge the intervention of an intellectual power in the diversity which ob- tains mn nature, under the plea that sach anad- mission implies distinct creative acts for every species, What of it, if it were trae’? Have those who object to repeated acts of creation ever considered that no progress can be made in knowledge without repeated acts of thinking? And what are thonghts but specific: acts of mind? Why shonid it then be unscientitic to infer that the facts of nature are the result of a similar process since there is no evidence of any other cause? The world has arisen in some way or other. How it originated ig the great question, and Darwin's theory, like all other attempts to explain the origin of life, is thus tar merely conjectaral. I believe he has | not even made the best conjectare possible in | the present state of our knowledge. The more I look at the great complex of the animal world, the more sure do I feel that we have not yet reached its hidden meaning, and the more do I regret that the young and ardent spirits of our day give themselves to speculation rather than to close and accurate investigation. What Agassiz meant by this last sentence | may perhaps best be illustrated by the refuta- | tion which he cites from anew pamphlet vy the veteran embryologist, E. K. von Baer, of the theory of some later larwinians that the Ascidians, man’s ancestor's, with their “incip- ient backbone,” (which turned out to be placed on the lower side of the abdominal cavity in- sterd of the upper,) the Ascidians having really no homology of structure with the Vertebrate animals at all. The fancied resemblance was the resultof an imperfect examination, bined with what von Baer cails a belief in | “complete transmutations.” In regurd to in- heritance, the intluence of climate, &c., upon which Darwin and his followers so mach rely, Agassiz says: ‘No one can deny that inheritance i a power. ful factor in the maintenance of race and in the improvement of breeds and varieties. Bat it has never been known that acjuired qaalities, even though retained through saccessive gene rations, have led to the production of ne} species. Darwin's attractive style is never m: alluring than in connection with this subje His concise and effective phrases have the weight of aphorisms and pass current for prin- ciples, when they may be only unfounded nm the genera.

Atter reading some chaptersof The Descent of Man, could xuy one doubt. unless indeed he hap- pened lo be familiar with the facts, that wnima: | | | | | ng certain advantages over others, are necessarily winners in the race for life? And yet it is not true that, outside of the influence of man, there are, in nature, privileged individuals among animats capable of holding on to a, positive gain, gene- ration after generation, &’d of transmitting successfully their peculiarities until they be- come the starting point for another step; the | descendants losing at last, through this cama- | lative process, all close resemblance to their progenitors. It is not true that a slight varia- tion, among the suce-ssive offspring of the same stock, goes on increasing until the difference amounts toa specific distinction. On the con- trary, it is a matter of fact that extreme varia- tions ‘finally degenerate or become sterile; like monstrosities, they die out, or return to their t TKS to the influence of climate and physical conditions, we all know their power for evil and for good upon living beings. “Butthore is, nev- ertheless, nothing more striking in the whole book of nature than the power shown by types and species to resist physical conditions. End- less evidence may be brought trom the whole expanse of land and air and water, showing that identical physical conditions will do nothing to ward the merging of species into one another, neither will variety of conditions do anything toward their multiplication. One thing only we know absolutely, and in this treacherous, mar- shy ground of hypothesis and assumption, itis pleasant to plant one’s foot occasionally upon a solid fact here and there. Whatever be the means of preserving and transmitting proper- ties, the primitive types have remained perma- nent and unchanged—in the long succession of agesamid all the appearance and disappearance of kinds, the fading away of one species and the coming in of auother—trom the earliest geological periods to the present day. How ese types were first introduced, how the spe- cies which have successively represented them have replaced one another,—these are the vital uestions to which no answer has been given. ‘¢ are as far from any satisfactory solution of this problem as if development theories bad never been discussed. ‘This brings us to the geological side of the question. Asa paleontologist I have from the beginning stood alvof from this new theory of transmutation. now so widely admitted by the scientific world. Its doctrines, in fact, contra- dict what the animal forms buried in the rocky strata of our earth tell usof their own introduc- tion and succession upon the surface of the globe. Let us therefore Lear them—for, after all, their testimony is that of the eve-witness and the actor in the scene. I hope in fature ar- ticles to show, first, that however broken the geological record may be. there is a complete Sequence in many parts of it, from which the character of the succession may be ascertained; secondly, that, since the most exquisitely deli_ cate structures, as well aa embrvonic phases of growth of the most perishable nature, have been Preserved from very carly deposits, we have no right to infer the disap, of types because their al disproves some favorite theory. and, lastiy, that there is no evidence of a direct descent of later from earlier species in the geo- logical! succession of ant; 7 To say & man “defuncted” is the latest re- vr kes ii el it takes intellectual to select one ar- ticks dat of a whole top ee? bor ‘ jy Fecen! eu Rrweek ‘on’ basswood eprouts.
