The P h I lafeplq pfjlsrt ty) oakr,.
Enq-JIBBB SflWf:—Haring, in a former
communication, given you my views as to
the onuses of our seismic troubles. I pro
pose now to exemplify them more fully', I
shall do so with some reference to the the-
crieS'lntely advanced by Professor New
berry bofore a New York audience, a part
of wnose lecture was copied in the Sun of
October 26, 1880.
Earthquake disturbances have been
handed down to us from the earliest wri
ters on the subj ct, and have always caused
the greatest possible alarm from the little
knowledge mankind have been able to
bring to bear upon them in a scientific way.
Tnis field of observation is still the theatre
of discordant speculation, some thinking
it the result of accident, wntle others in
vest it with the attributes of a regular in
stitution—a principle of uction inherent
to all bodies of matter similar to our earth,
(such ore the writer’s views ou the subject)
springing from well regulated forces ol'tho
earth, and acting in perfect harmony with
the whole. Thut French experimentalist,
Joubert, on “motion and heut.” illustrates
this theory, that “a specific amount of
action” gives its equivalent in heat, inten
sified by volume und velocity. If we apply
these laws to the solution of earthquakes
we shall be obliged to discard most of the
theories advanced by Prof. Newberry, par
ticularly those of “a shrinkage of the earth”
from former ages, by interior heat, as
wtll as that of accelerated heat, extending
from the surface to the centre of the
earth, causing a red hot, “seething, boil
ing. white heat mass” of matter. The
earth’s diameter of 8200 miles would give
•us a cubic number of miles of 8000 by
8000, which equals (110,000, multiplied by
.8000, equals 5,120,000,000 of cubic miles of
fire really a thousand times hotter than the
material we call fire. Prodigious! The
solid rim of the earth wonld certainly dis
appear, and we should be placed back to
our original state of fire, where he, the
professor, says the earth started from,
“but is now cooling off.” But Prof. Jou-
bert’s theory would just be the reverse of
this; it would give us a cold centre of the
earth on the same principle of action that
the north and south pole undergo,
making three points or the earth
minus action and diminished heat,
giving us a cold centre of gravity
rather than a hot one; yes, would pre
fer a hollow earth on the soap bubble pat
tern, or one filled with water, instead of
fire. There is more heat generated ut the
•earth’s surface than any where else on it,
because its action is greater, as we shall
presently see, about 1000 miles an hour
velocity, which cannot be said of any part
•of the earth’s interior, or division of its in
terior stratas, which gradually slow until
they are nill, no movement at all, and
have but one motion or orbit, like nill at
the poles.
If we divide the earth Into fifty circum
ferential s tratas, e.. tending round and
round it, like covers to a ball, and give
them eighty miles depth each, we shall
-cover with them the earth’s interior, and
• reach its centre of gravity of 4000 miles.
These stratas or rims, from odc to eighty,
-are susceptible of different degrees of heat,
but gradually lessening to the centre, from
the tact of their lessening volumes and ve
locities. According to the science here laid
down, the first strata, or surface rim, of
eighty miles deph, would give the most
heat. Why? Because its volume and ve
locity is much greater; in fact, when this
1s passed the heat decreases on and on to
the centre of the earth. Herein lies the
region of seismic trouble. The surplus of
heat evoked finds a ready venc lrom vol
canoes and lines the earth’s surface wit a its
scoring for ages on ages, giving it the ap
pearance of having been, us a whole, one
vast body of fire. This is the fusional, and
the only fusional point that could possibly
exist under such laws.
Thus, we see, the diurnal forces of the
•earth are intimately connected with earth
quakes. The generating of surplus heat
by the earth gives their rise, and often
finds a safety valve in their display. They
-are an institution which will continue to
exist and to increase until others forms of
-escapement are provided for them by na
ture. Again, I cannot see them ac
counted for by the rising or
sinking of any portions of the
-earth’s surface, either solid or fluid parts.
Variations in the earth’s orbits and ve
locities wonld give these changes. Two-
thirds of its surface being water, it acts
as a great equilibrator, maintaining its
weight and level, which naught but water
could accomplish in suitable periods.
When we look above into space and see
the large and accumulating family of
planets of all sizes and velocities with
which our solar system abounds, we shall
-see cause to admire the economy of a pur
pose thut admits of no waste, of no idle
suppositions, but intelligent creations,
mysterious until known. Is there any one
•of them that appears to be in a state of
conflagration like ours is supposed to have
been? Our observations,by the best instru
ments, answers hone, and whose shrink
age would and might cause a constant
Tupture of their surfaces, when their mat
ter, their laws and their action are identi
cal all through the system, our answer is
the same, it cannot be. The above theory
will give a solution to the gulf stream, and
also, to the tides, and will account for
many meteorological phenomena that ap
pear mysterious uow. R.
A FAMILY RENAMED.
Mr. B. B. Kay I.lvcs fur fears in Ignorance of
Ills Own Name Until He Finds That His
Brothers arc Named Dunlap.
Pittsburgh Commercial-Gazette.
In the court of common pleas No. 1 of
Allegheny county yesterday the name of
Birdine Blake Ray and Anna L. Ray, his
wile, were chaugud to Birdine Blake Dun
lap and Anna L. Dunlap. It was also or
dered that the last name of their two small
children, Anna Marion and Alice Adella,
should be changed from Ray to Dunlap.
This is the revival as well as the culmi
nation of a very romantic story. Mr. Dun
lap, who was Ray’s father, died by the
time he was borii out in Bedford county,
and a few months afterward, when he was
but 11 months old, his mother died also,
leaving three boys, himself and two older
brothers, Harry and C. E. Dunlap, which
was his father’s name. This happened in
1849, and in the same year a married man
who had no children, Mr. R. S. Ray, ap
plied to Mr. Birdine, Dunlap’s relatives,
lor permission to adopt him, which they
gave, and he was brought up under the
name of Ray.
His adopted father moved away from
his family home, living part of the time in
Pittsburg, aud lie and nis wife raised the
. boy as their own sou, and us he never
heard from his brothers nor knew of their
existence he grew up under tixe belief that
his adopted father and mother were his
real parents. Finally his adopted mother
died, and shortly afterward his adopted
lather followed tier. Even ou his death
bed his love for his adopted boy was so
strong that he had not the heart
to tell him that he was
not his son. Mr. Birdine Ray, nee
Dunlap entered the war and fought all
through it. At the same time Ins two
brothers were fighting in the same army,
possibly meeting daily and neither them
nor their brother being conscious ol their
relationship Mr. Birdine Dunlap’s
brothers it is true, had heard of his going
to the war, but had also heafd that he was
•killed. After the war they went back to
their old home, while Mr. Dunlap came to
Pittsburg. He lived here aud married,
having two little girls aged 13 and 11 years
respectively.
Last year a rumor reached the ears of
the two brothers that their brother had
not been killed in the war, as they had
been led to believe, and they started out to
trace him. At length last spring they

was iving quietly out at home on the hills,
at the head of Buena. Vista street,
Allegheny, in walked his two
Joue parted brothers, who announced
their relationship, which was received, as
may well be imagined, with considerable
incredulity by him. Finally they con-
vineed him of the mutual ties which
uound them together, to his bewilderment
and astonishment. At first his joy at dis
covering some kindred when he thought,
himself alone in the world was tempered
by sorrow at learning that his kind parents
were only relations by name.
At. Him newly found brother’s suggestion
ho dele.'.-, line I to take his old family name
and discard nts adopted name, so in May
ne filed a petition in court In accordance
with the act of the legislature regarding
the changing of names, and yesterday his
petition was granted, and henceforth he
will be known as a member of the Dunlap
family.

Philadelphia, November 14.—To
night’s Star says in its Washington dis
patches: “Senator Vest, Joseph N. Rickey
and others of Morrison’s near and close
friends are here. They do not disguise
their disgust at Morrison's defeat and the
close shave made by Carlisle, but they
swear loudly that it will not result in bring
ing Randall to the front again. They say
that Carlisle will be speaker again unless
he himself refuses to run in the face of hav
ing his sent contested. Carlisle is u high-
strung man and punctilious about his hon
or, and it might occur to him that, with
his sent contested, he should not hold the
position of speaker. In such an event,
Rickey says, the Carlisle-Morrison revenue
reform people would bring forward Crisp,
of Georgia, or Sunset Cox as their candi
date.
“Rickey will go to Philadelphia in a few
days to make a thorough examination of
just how the republican bosses of that city
came to the conclusion not to allow a re
publican candidate to be put in the field in
the third district. He wants this material
for Morrison and Carlisle as use against
Randall at the coming session; and to as
sail Randall’s leadership by questioning
his fealty to party. Rickey has letters of
introduction to Cassidy, Vaux, Ker, Sin-
gerly and to several republican leaders,
who can tell him just why neither Mc-
Cammou, Sheppard nor any other republi
can was allowed to enter the race for
congress. Colonel Rickey is a very aggres
sive man and an excellent talker. He is
fond of betting, and it is his way to back
every assertion he makes by offering to bet
that it is true. He won $25,000 by Detting
on Carlisle when that gentleman won the
speakership, and $60,000 betting on Cleve
land against Blaine, and he is willing to
bet that Governor Hill will be the next
democratic nominee. Rickey will make
either Dooner’s or the Hotel Bellevue his
headquarters, but I imagine he will be
found most of the time closeted in Coun
selor Ker’s law offices.

From Mine. Durand’s Memoirs.
At the period of the retreat from Mos
cow, Napoleon had secured means toavoid
falling alive into the hands of his enemies
in case of accident. He had procured from
his surgeon, Yvan, a sachet, which he wore
round nis neck during the time that the
danger lasted. Some said that this was
opium; others insisted that it was a
preparation compounded by the celebrated
Cabanis, and the same with which Condor-
cet, the deputy, had destroyed himself.
Whatever it wag, Napoleon had pre
served this sachet in one of the secret
drawers of a traveling dressing case, wh|ch
he always took on his campaigns. Tnat
night at Fontainebleau he bethought him
that the moment to have recourse to his
terrible expedient had arrived. One of
his valets, whose bed was placed behind
his half opened door, had heard him rise,
and seen him stir something in a coffee
cup, drink it and lie down again. In a
short time violent pains in the stomach
and bowels forced from Napoleon the ad
mission that lie was dying. Then the man
took upon himself to send for those who
were most intimate with the emperor.
Ivan was not forgotten, and when he
learned what had happened and heard
Napoleon complain thut the action ol the
E oison was not sufficiently rapid, he lost
is head and ruahed away from Foutain-
buleau. After a long swoon ; followed by a
profuse perspiration, the pains ceased, and
the alarming symptoms disappeared, eith
er because the dose had been insufficient or
because the poison had lost its effect
through time.
It is said that Napoleon, astonished to
find himself still alive, reflected for a few
moments, and then exclaimed, “God does
not will it to be,” and, yielding himself
into the hands of Providence, wiio had
just saved his life, resigned himself to his
new destinies.
Hot Springs Vomiting Human Itcmnins.
Laramie Boomerang.
Charley Ercildonne, an old trapper and
hunter who has long made the Big Horn
mountains and valley his hunting grounds,
passed through Laramie City recently on
his way to visit Scotish relatives with
whom he has not exchanged fraternal
greetings for over a score of years.
From him a reporter learned that the
noted Hot Springs of the Big Horn have
lately taken to throwing up boiled human
bones. These well-heated relies of poor
humanitv are deeply marked and scarred,
and have apparently long been ground
against the rocks of the bowels of the
earth. Every portion of the human frame
is represented, and skulE, breast
bones, fore-arms, clavicles, thigh-bones,
knee-pans, shin-bones aud phalanges
come pouring out of tlie building vortexes
in bewildering and ghastly succession.
That records of past violence and murder
have come to light is simply evidenced by
the fact that tlie breast-bones and skulls
are cleft and pierced with knife and ax
strokes or bullet holes.
The llot Springs of the Big Horn are
situated on both banks of the Big Horn
river, about ten miles below where the
noble stream issues from tlie world-famous
Wind Canyon. They are some thirty in
number, and the steam and vapor arising
from their boiling depths can be seen for
scores of miles in every direction.
Quite a number of these springs are
called in local parlance “blind springs,”
that is they have apparently been so
choked up with mud and refuse as to en
tirely retard their action. Every year,
however, some of these “blind springs”
arouse themselves, Durst the mud bonds
which bind them and take their place
amoug their active brethren. It is two of
these yeysers, so long inactive, which have
this year signalized their return to life by
the vomiting forth of human remuins
committed to their keeping by the
sed-handed crime of the olden days.
The Wind canyon cuts through three
mountain* ranges, the Rattlesnake,
the Owl and the Big Horn. In the savage
gorges of its vicinity tradition locates the
headquarters aud the hiding-places of a
band of outlaw road agents who preyed
upon the emigrants westward-bound over
tlie old Bridger trail. Countless robberies
were committed by this gang, and a safe
refuge always awaited them in the neigh-
borhoodjlof the Wind Canyon. The Hot
Springs were probably one of their favorite
haunts and in the mud-sealed springs of
the group were thrust the bodies of the
murdered victims to now appear and
recall the crimes of the band and the
memories of the murdered.

plucky fight aud terrible experience with
that much-dreaded and always to be feared
disease, cancer:
Home five years ago a barber accidentslly
cut my lower lip while shaving me. The !
pain was very slight, and for some time j
hardly gave it a passing thought. Finally !
it assumed the condition of a wart, which J
refused to heal entirely with all my efforts
in that direction. 1 went to one of the
leading physicians in Philadelphia, who
treated me three months f.r cancer, and
sent me home cured, as he said. But f .
was apprehensive. 1 was told by a oromi- j
ner.t physician of Wilmington that I would
surely die of cancer. About that time 1 OU;
heard of the wonderful cures effected b

Chicago. Novembe,
time up to tlie present I liave never Celt
the least evidence of a return of my old
trouble. The cancer disappeared over a
year ago, but I refrained from making tlie
cux'e public before this, as I wished to he
certain that I was cured. My condition
is perfectly normal; I have none of those
annoying symptoms which foil wed c cry
other treatment ufed. I honestly believe
that I have been cured of one oftlie worst
afflictions that can be visited upon the.
human family, and by the medicine known
as S. S. S. I do not wish my name to ap
pear in this connection, for business
reasons only, bu you are at liberty to give
my name and address to any fellow-suf
ferer, or anyone interested in the cause ot
humanity.
