From the New York Sun. ‘The importance of the latest news gathered from the starry heavens has, apparently, been hardly comprehended, even by many of the astronomers themselves. To say that a new star bas appeared among the countless brilliant specks of light that enliven the sky at night | does not seem very startling, especially when the new star is so faint as to escape all eyes ex- cept those that are aided by the telescope. The ews assumes greater interest, however, when itis considered that this new star is a sun, as . probably, as our own sup, which has sud. deniy sprung Sto being in the depth of 5 lighting up with {ts radiance a corner of the universe hitherto buried inthe gloom of per Petual night. Bat the most interesting fact about the new Starin Andromeda is that it pears in the center of a nebula, thus giving soe counten- ance to tl ‘rtion whieh has been made that 1 Isa marvelous example of the. process of nebular evolution by which our own’ solar sys tem is believed to have been produced. If this isso, however, we have here an instance in which the exceeding slowness of development assumed in ebular Hypothesis ix replaced. by asudden bound from the nebulous to the solar condition. It appears that eat in Au- gust certain observers saw sing arly bright spot in the Andromeda nebula, which, however, Was clearly @ nebulous mass and not a star. In @ month a star glittered in the place of the cudlng firemist! Thus, if we believe that the new star lly belongs to the nebula of Androm*ia, men have beheld the birth of a Sun, 108 by gradual processes of contraction covering axes upon ages of time, but by a sud- | dep spring into being, a burst of splendor in Which the dull and scattered matter of a dimly | glowing nebula has, almost In a twinkling, been transformed into a magnifleently blazing sume pouring the sudden light of day into the depths | ots e for millions of miles around it, We can behold no spectacle on earth com- parable with that. But a great deal of evidence ‘Will be required to convince astronomers that Pais is the actual history of what has occurred. They will probably sooner believe that the new star is the result of some collision of dark Lodies in space, or of a terrifle outburst of tiery forces in such a body lying between us and the Andromeda nebula, rather than that the step from nebula to sun’could be so suddenly per. formed. Ivis as yet all a great mystery, and the solu- tion of it, whatever it may be, cannot fail to prove intensely interesting. ne Mere Cock Fighting Lomg Ago Than New. ‘From the Saturday Review. Cock fighting was fashionable In Greece at Jeast 500 years before Christ, and it was proba- bly avery aucient sport in China, where it is suit highly popular. In India, ‘again, cock Nighting is an institution of very great anti- quity. Mr. Doyle, in his book on poultry, as~ sumes that the Britons practiced cock fighting Defore the landing of Cusar, from the statement of that author to the effect that the Britons only Feared their fowls for amusement, Both Hen VILL. and James [. were fond of “cocking.” OW ted against it, but Charles IL revived it. Ti royal cockpit at Westmins- ter, which was the headquarters of cock fight- ing, was established by Heury VIIL,aud even in the present century mains have been fought init. Newmarket has been the scene of nuin- Deriess cock fights. Indeed, it may be. said that for along time cock fighting went band- fa-hand with racing, and it used to be rej in the official racing calendar, which was then ‘culled the Sporting Calendar. Taking up the Sporting Calender of 1775 we read that in Neweastle-upon-Tyne, during the Tuce meeting, the gentlemen of Durham aud Northumberiind fought a “main of cocks,” consisting of thirty-cight battles, and ending in “a drawn main.” It is said that ome cocks have heeo killed, in fights during one week at Neweustle. The gentlemen of the same counties fought another main at the Durbam races of the same year, when North- deen fought. Although the “inatehes, were nh fought. mate! were somotiones Red one ae — more usual for the mains at races fough between cocks bel to the gentlemen of ining counties. Ten guineas each bat- Ue, and 100 or 200 on the “odd,” seem to have beén the usual stakes; but there was an im- mense amount of betting, and the odds were to iileety.

A POT OPENED WITH A CALF, RAISED A COW AND SEEN FOR TWO MORE, From the New York Sun. Butch was a grand scamp, a brave, reckless ruifian, but he had some very good points. For instance, he could make excellent hoecakes, and he was cheerfal and companionable, and could tell highly interesting les. One evening, as we sat side by side on the sandy soil, leaning against the house and smicking our after supper pipes, a group of Indians, driving cattle be them, rode trom behind a rocky point that was thrust into the waters of the Columbia, Instantly Buteh sprang to his feet and rushed into the cabin, He put on a cunningly de- vised harness that held two navy six-shooters in a handy position under his arms. He puton his coat. “He pulled at the pistols to see if they were loose, and that there would be no hitch in the performance if anything more than a re- hearsal should be reauired. Ina few minutes the party of horsemen drew rein in front of the cabin, “They were three young bucks from Moses’ camp in the Grand Coulee. Butch greeted them, cheeriully and helped to corral the cattle. Then he told me that these men were the selected poker ginvers, of the Colum- bia Plain Indians; that they had been staked by the tribe to play with iim in hopes of win- ning a number of cattle. Yes, he sald, the cat- te were the stakes. Before thie first hand was dealt Butch quietly informed the Indians that lish and Chinook only could be spoken the table, and that the first Indian who spoke in his own (and to Butch unknown) tongue would have the top of his head shot off, ‘The braves cheerfully agreed to this condition. Then the relailve Value of cows, calves and steers was agreed upon. They decided to play table stakes. The checks were pistol and mus ket balls, ‘Ten pistol balls were equal in value toacalt or to a musket ball, Three musket balls equaled a cow in value. A heavy Calffornia blanket was thrown over a@rough table. A candle was thrust into a to- mato can that was filled with beans, and the game began. Hour after hour passed and not ‘& word was spoken by the players. With faces: as unchangeable as bronze the three Indians layed, and, favored by the dim light and the fact of Buteh’s having but one eye, how they did cheat! ‘The luck varied, as it always does ina pokergame. Now they would be ahead, now Butch. I dropped asleep, and when { awoke it was nearly morning. Buteh’s back saw toward me. I was some cards thrust under his coat collar. I knew he was waiting for the end to come. One of the Indians dealt, Buteh picked up his cards, raised his right hand to scratch the back of | his neck, adroitly exchanged the cards he held | for those In reserve, and then thrust the cards | he had received below his shirt collar. ‘Then | he turned to me, exposing the back of his head | tothe Indians, and he winked a wink of great | Sagacity at me. He talked to me for an instant and then tured to the table. He was aged man. The Indian to his left bet acalf. The next one straddled it, The dealer went.a cow better,and Butch saw it all and ralsed the pot twocows. All stayed. All stood pat. Then the betting began in earnest. It went on until all the cattle the Indians brought were staked. Then came the show down, Butch hdd four queens and an ace. The Indians all had tours, which they had stolen, of course. They grunted loudly, ‘They struck" their mouths with the palms of open mands. to express surprise. Then they bade us good-bye and mounted, and, sing- Ing us they rode, disappeared In the "faint gray light of early morning. Buteh had won thirty head of cattle. As we got breakfast the king ot clubs fell out of Buteh’s right trousers leg. Rattlesnakes Paralyze a School, Lander (Wyoming) Letter to the Denver Tribune. One day last week the well-modulated voice of the school mistress of the Lyon school said “noon” in its usual calm tones, and the usual wild rush for edibles followed the magic word. Asan eight-year old boy thrust his hand into his dinner-basket and drew out a bottle of milk the vicious warning of the deadly rattlesnake was heard from the depths of the dinner-bas- ket. Down went thedasket with a crash and | in “the fragment of a shattered pie-plate his snakeship coiled himself while its busy tail jnade the alr vibrate with its angry song, and that song was quickly re-echoed. From every corner of the school room came the fearful warning. and it was seen that at least half a dozen snakes had come to school. A wild scene of terror and confusion ensued. The usually suave and self-contained school mistress made a basty leap and load shriek, the double effort landitig her on top of the highest desk in the room. “Her example in both leap apd shriek Was speedily followed, and the new papils were left in possession of the floor. A very babel of cries and screams announced that the school mistress and older girls were in consultation as to how to get rid of the undue amount o. ser. ents that had so suddenly a them. In 1e midst of this effective discussion a ten-year old boy succeeded in forcing a side window open, and falling out, soon made his appear- ance’ with @ formidable club, with which he dispatehed the snakes in rotation. There were found tobe five, of the deadly rock variety.

Chautauqua. Chauteuqua has afforded, and will afford, to thousands of people opportunities of hoaring lectures and sermons by distinguished men, whom otherwise they would never hear. And @ day or s0 of the enthusiasm which pervades the pace like an air, may be = healthy stimu- lus to those of sluggish temperament, or who have little attrition with other minds.’ But let noone delude himself with the thought that Chautauqua is a place of rest or recreation. It tsa place where everything oratory, singing, study, religion itself—is at high pressure, but ‘examine the program and the calendar printed in the Evangelist of August 20th, ai 722 Will see how any one who attempts todo’ ut @ moderate portion of what is there laid out, must be kept at full strain. With all that people find admirable and at- tractive about Chautauqua, it is open at_ many points to severe criticism; and the trae friends of Chautauqua ought really to welcome such criticism. On the other hand, the votaries and the leaders of the institution are notoriously touchy, and are apt to look askance at press correspondents. Accordingly, one of the most entertaining and intelligent ‘of Chautauqua’s reporters, noticing the paucity of newspaper correspondents present this year, well remarked in arecentietter to the Buffilo Morning Express: “The only safeguard Chautauqua hus against itselt, against its demoralizing tendency to self- praise and constant, laudation of its works, be they good, bad oF indifferent, seems to be sadly lacking.” ’ “The wholesome ‘and friendly eriti- cism of which the place stands hourly In need is wamting.

As to the work attempted at Chautauqua, after all the boasting and enthusiasm it has elicited, we are convinced that it Is too varied to be kept well in hand, and there 1s too much of it tobe practicable. ‘Instead of encouraging the outgrowth of any more limbs from the trunk of this already marvelous, many-branch- Ing tree, we should say it were better to saw off here and there a limb, and then resolutely keep the thing in shape, to become a Sequoia giganteu iit may be, but not a Ficus Indica, or Banyan tree, To specify but one thing for particular re- mark, what substantial good can be hoped for from the department entitled “Normal School of Languages,” in which we are offered instruc- tion in Greek, Latin, Hebrew, Oriental tongues, German, French and Anglo-Saxon?

First, the lady smoker and the wife retired to aside room to dress, Then the proprietor, turning the light down to aglim- mer, removed his coat, vest, and shoes, and roceeded to a closet from which he took ‘three ‘urkish rugs and a like numberof tin tea trays. ‘These were carefully spread out on the floor, and a tray laid in the middle of each, On them. were put a little card of opium, an oil lamp, and #pipe. The room was then still further dark- ened, and the women appeared attired in their dressing gowns. The owner then conducted the girl and her companion to a rug, at one end of which he aes pillow. The two then lay down on thefr sides, facing each other, the tray between them, The man was then handed the pipe, and began to “cook” the drug. the woman in turn accepted the pipe, holding the bowl toward her companion. As he pro- ceeded to light it in the flames, and place the burning drug in the little hole in the middle of the bowl, she puffed complacently a moment, and then said: “It is all right. Obi how nice it seems to smoke again.” ‘The proprietor then left the couple to them- selves, and came over to propere the remaining couches, After going through the same routine witheach, he sees the whole party reclining com! coreabty on the rugs, and then, taking a pipe, joins his wife on the bed Jor a smoke. For overan hour no sound above a whisper was spat tee Piet pe Ment, stealing in rough the windows, lent a weird appearance to the place, and the delleate odor ot the per. fumed opium slowly commenced {ts work. The smoke grew thicker and thicker, Suddenly a low, distinct whistle was heard outside. Ina moment the keeper was on his feet. Cautiously he drew the curtain aside with the remark. “I wonder who now?” He hastened below, unlocked the door, and soon appeared with a party of four young'men, and later on with two closely veiled girls, As thelr outside wraps were being laid aside almost everybody in the room was awakened, and for afew minutes there was a hearty interchange of greetings. The hostess was on hand with plenty to drink. Some took beer, others lemon- ande, and afew wine. Then thé conversation turned to opium sent “I wish Icould remember the dream I had it night,” said one. Can't you remember your visions?” asked the reporter. “No,” was the answer. “That’s what makes me mad. I will sometimes seem in a heaven, and the moment Iawake It’s all lost. I never remembered a dream so that I could tell about it the next morning. There is nothing distinct about my visions. ‘I feel all the time a kind of confused happiness that I have tried in vain to hom,” ‘How long have you smoked?” “Oh, I'm an old hand. Three years ago last Wintek I tn “hit the pipe’ and have kept at it off and on ever since, had the babil bad a while ago, about the ‘time I got plached with two young lady friends whom I had induced to go with me to see an Elliott street joint. The lice took us all in—a terrible stab, It seems just as if the Giobe put itself out to break up our smoking places, Wasn't I mad, though, when I read the story of our appearance in court in the evening paver. “I'd just like to get hold of that. Teporter for three minutes,” be said, with closed teeth. “I'li bet he wouldn't write another piece like that for one year.” The writer drew a deep, but inaudible si; rh. His conscience troubled hit. “Was it not his duty to tell the irate smoker that the author ot the alleged tunny story was within convenient reach of his left fist?” Seltpreservation ar- gued to the contrary, and he only said, with shaky accents, “Y-yes, it was a rather mean Job to put up on the crowd.” One by one the smokers closed their conver- sation. The room was crowded in every part, and the proprietor said there would be no others admitted that night. The smoke filled e room in clouds, The reporter was restl 1d, being unable to sleep, he soon got up an tly satin achair, From the seat he oceu- ed the room and its inmates could be dis- inetly seen, Over in the northwest corner, near the bed, was a party of tour sleeping soundly upon theit mat. Their lamp was burning low, the card of opium was exhausted—the fascinating narcotic had done its work. The owner and his wife were likewise asleep upon the bed. A sinile of seeming contentment rested on her features, Her husband’s face, on the contrary, was dark ‘and troubled. Beyond them, on the floor, was a group of young inen smoking slowly in silence, power of action remained in them. Their minds were fully lost in the fantastic visions that came in the fragrant smoke. At the foot of the bed were the two girl: iy Bl ‘peace! itn thelr beds at home. “PD ## Peseetully an ———+e+_____ A Gallant Thrush.
