A most scosssful banquet was given lastUR NEW YORK.-* night by the members of the Cerole da Com-Bank Bilig on demand.... marce to Monsieur Chavossieux, the Roxidant Maire of Haiphong, the ocasion being his ap- preshing departure for Europe. Monsieur Chavisar having gained the affections of everybody be has come in contact with, it was not at all surprising to see the largo nmaber of members who sat down to table. The¬tangart| was laid with great taits, and the character of the various wine and vinnda muro than dame up to what was expected from the high sounding | names on the sun; in fact, M. Gandaubert diet fall fürties this established reputation as a caterer.
Good humour and kindliness of feeling por vaded averything, and when Monsieur d'Abbadio rose to propose the health of the honoured guest, which he did in a mont aloquent manner, the tomat was received with the utmost enthuelaer. Menseur Chavations returned thanks in bis most happy manner, and other specskés félared, showing how much our genial rewident-in octected. The oompany had a very planean evening and did not break up till the wall hours of the morning.
The reason for M. Cherassient's departure
In the led state of his health, which has for some time pas given his friends some seriaty. During the time of our Resident's holding his
1 prosent sipointment he has by his ability, tact, and Firdlinete proved himself a most able administrator, and it is to be hoped that in the futarasta of Ilo-Chias, where he has passed asy of the best years of his life and to which he is greatly attached, he may in the near future return to reap the fruit of his labours in holding the highest posts in £be servico.
We understand that M. Chevossions goes boms per the next mall vis Hongkong, and we wish him from one bart a plusmat passage, speedy recovery, a good tiras at home, and quick promotion.
SOIENTIFIC MISCELLANY.
- To en Axperiment descibed to the French Academy of Bolences, 2. V. Zeöger has imitated the rotation of the earth by mesas of 's hollow glass globe and a Wichurat elootrioj maabins. The globe was silvered on ita inside, and supported queel:axia. Placed between the poles of the momokine so that a line connecting the discharge points would pass at one side of the axis, the globe began to rotate when the crank of the machine was turned, and dontiqued to mors with a degree of regalarity and spent varging with the motion generating the rout From this affect it was segood that, the reolions of the planets of car solar system have an electro-dynamic origin. “
