JHE P AIL Yj PINING TELEGRAPH PinLADELPgA, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1868, rrcwnt SUle of Ueographlcal Science. At tbe meeting of- the Bi ittch Association at Norwich, England, oa the '20th of August, Cap tain BlebardH, njdronrapber to the Admiralty, reviewed the present state of geographical science, and referred particularly to those blan Its on the map of the world which appeared to demand the attention of tature explorers in the InteroHlof humanity, and for the Uouor of tbe country. The science ot geography was within easy reach of all, and it was matter of little sur prise that it should be one ot tbe most popular sciences. Wherever navigation had penetrated, they knew enough of tbe shore ot the world for the pin Poets of geography proper, but It was necessary iu tbe interests of commerce and tbe intercommnnicatlon of nstionB that thev should be cotpg'sntly adding to tbnlr knowledge. But for the knowledge of tbe physical geography of the ocean H would have been impossible to have laid the Atlantic cabK lie had no doubt that, as soon as the requirements ot commerce Justi fied the .outlay, similar cables wjuM be laid wntll the whole world was encircled. The day was not fur distant when a coble would be laid from Gibraltar to Malta, and along the Mediter ranean and lied Sea, to briug India lato more direct communication with this country. From lad's a cable would be laid to Australia and Mow Zealund, and another t China. AH this required an accurate knowledges of the physical geography of the ocean. Their energies were being directed to the argument ol that (ufcrenc?; and he m ght say that by the aid ot science aud tbe modern inventions of me chanicul science they were becoming lutimatcly acquainted with tbe depths of every sea iu the woild. .Tbe bed of the Atlautic was knovn by three routes accurately, the average depth being about to m.les. Within the last few weeks they bad connected the obtaining of full kuow lege of th? riepibs of the Iudinn Ucean between' the Red Sea aud Bomb ly, aud in various other places, sn.i ihe depth was fouud to be not more than iwj mile. They bad also very recently obtained ilie necessary knowledge of the depths of tbe o'aii between India and China, and bo tweeu the 1, ape of Good Hope and tbe Equator, tbe maxim am depth tu - the latter cae being a Jilt1. ver three miles. These were great arhleVments, second to none In importance, and in view of their practical results the Admi ralty bad prepared charts of the physical fea tures of the Atlantic Ucean, and he trusted that they would be lolloweJ by charts of every other ocean in the world. The darker side of the picture was to be found In Africa, Central Ai-in, and Australia, and that sealed book iu tbe north of Europe which ly almost at their own doors. The mind almost failed to contemplate tbe great problems wbich were yet to be solved. It sickened the mind to see ho comparatively little tboy had learned from the great and self-deDying and self-sacrificing eflortb ol explorers. Scarcely more thin a corner or Australia could be said to be fairly occupied. Of a great proportion of the Interior they knw little more than they did when Cork first visited its shores a hundred years ago. There was here an almost nn limited field for zeal and enterprise, and the time has come wtten a combined effort sbould be made to remove a great reproach 'from the science of geographj. In relerring to Africa he pointed out the results of the labors of Livingstone. For the la6t two years and a half he had beeu wander ing almost single-handed to carry out the object to which he had. devoted his life, namely, tbe extinction of slavery and the regeneration ot the race of Africa. (Loud applause.) With retereLce to the fate of Livingstone there was a great mist in the public mind, and much cause for the anxiety which was lelt, as he had been only once beard of within the two and a half years, and tbat eighteen months ago. If he wai spared to return to this country, he believed he would return, not by the Mediterranean, as some thought, but by tbe way he went. The absence ot fcir Roderick Murchtson, which they all regretted (hear, bear) was caused by illness. (Sir Hojerick bad written a .letter from Germany, In which he said, "I beg you will tell the section that nothing except the necessity that I am placed under of coming to Germany for the recovery of my strength would haveiuduced me to be ab sent. 1 have attended the meetings of tbe British Association tor thirty-two years."' Sir Roderick might, in fact, be said to have founded the sec tion. Applause. The grent hope ot his (Sir R. Murchison's) life was to welcome home once more his friend Livingstone a hope in which they all heartily joined. applause. 1 Tbe Pre sident then referred to tbe subject of polar dis covery. He trusted that further efforts would be made to discover tbe North Pole. It was a matter for the nation not, as some hell, for the Admiralty. He regarded it as being as much a public question as the Irish church laughter and applause; and he believed If it were only csnvahPed, It would have as much effect upon tbe elections renewed laughter in all places 'where geographers possessed the franchise to any extent.' Wliat a "Tramp" Says. The London Star pays: "We have received a letter on the subject of the accommodation offered to the waDdering poor throughout the country from a correspondent who, to use his own words, has, during tbe past three months, been 'on a tour ot inspection into the various tramp wardd between London, Birmingham, Manchester, Preston, and back to Loudon.' Most of these wards, it appears, are still very badly managed. "The nearer,' says the writer and we give his own spelling as well as his own words 'the poor artisan (.vagrant he is styled in the printed form given him for adrnlssiou) gels into an aristocratic neighborhood the worse the place his, and the treatment he has to eubmit to. For instance, Knutsford in Che ehire, near Lord de Tabley's mansion, and other magnates, I was locked up in the tramp ward between six and seven in tbe evening. There was no bread or anythiug else for supper, not even a drink of water, and I was told there was no breakfast the following morning. The ?lace had not been even swept out, I should hink. for a week. No straw, no rug, or cover ing of any kind; no place for a wash in the morning, and too much ventilation.' And Lewlshara tramp ward, in which, after vainly trying to get work on the road, tne writer was compelled to take shelter on Sunday last, was very little. If at all, better than KnutsforJ. 'It is a new building and Uke everything else our government, ana almost all the different boards f guardians, meddles with is wrong iu the beginning. If a place is to bo kept clean in every particular, it must be insisted upon that thev. tbe ai)tl;cants. no lo bed clnan (as they do in Birmingham), yet iu this new building there is no bath, the very first thing has ougnt to be put into operation is aosenr, ana, luereiore, mo rues and tbe beds will besome filthy quickly. It had been verv wet. vet there was not a hook or nail to hauu mi clothes on.' Such are our correspondent's experiences, and tbey appear to be those of a genuine casual. He is very precise us to names and even dates, anl bis charges are fpecltic; he can, therefore, be eally corrected If he has iot told tbe truth. In all probability his statements are substantially accurate." The Spiritualist Treasure-Hunters. A correspondent of the Boston Journal writes from Mount Desert. Maine: "About a mile and a half from our camp a party of men are engaged in 'digging for trea sure' under the direction of two spiritualistic mediums. They have been working at it all summer, and the man who owns- the land, and is to have one-fourih of all that is found as bis khare of the proceeds, tells me that in about two weeks there will be developments tbat will astonish the world. He was an unbeliever at first, but lie has bacome convinced now that tbe results of Captaru Kldd's piratical expe ditious are buried among the ledges of his farm. The mediums have told the diggers tbat there are twelve rooms, elaborately nn thhed and covered with a roof of polished EzVD tlan marble, which are filled with trea-mres stolen by Kldd and his companions, and the owner of the land has spent considerable time in trying to convince us that a common trap ieuge, moolLlv worn bv nlactal action, is the root o polished marble. The spirit who speaks through the mediums purports to belong to one of Kldd's companion, and he exhorts the men who are disglni 'o niane gooa use oz whatever tney may find. Tbey bave spent the summer in making the excavatiouN which thev exoect will lead theiu to Independent lortui.es, aud if they are I disappointed thev will havei nonr nrovUInn fnr IA 1 r tn- fVU I.

Maria Talu'. a wa herwomnn in ihn service of the Chlgl family, who died here in 1837, in the odor of sanctity. A great sensation hub ueen creaiea oy ner prophecies, which were confided to her confessor. Father Natall. now ninety years or age, who has faithfully related them as the events successively hap- urueu. j uo praois 01 ner present residence in heaven are incontestable, though her body is Still on earth, having been exhumed from thn catacomb of the church of St. Chrysogen in Trastevere. The corpse was found perfectly fresh aud flexible, and Is now exposed in a cDapci araente, raisea at the expense of the Princess Barberinl, in tho aforesaid church, where everybody in Rome, with the exception of myself, has kisped its leet. The exhumation was oidered on the demand ot the l'ostulator for her canonization, on his adduoins the proofs of her beatitude, which state, among other wonders, thnt her image was sent to the uiipitoi last uctooer, with on intimation that the building was ilueatened by a great danger, which nothing but this pailudium could avert. The next day brought the insurrectionary attack, at the time supposed to have been re pulsed by the troops, but now admitted to have Deen 10 ilea oy rue miraculous image. "The Marauls Ctvalettl. senator of Romn. la determined to commemorate this event in a becoming manner, the Capitol being under his care; and he has ordered it to be represented in a picture, which will be placed in one of the galleries. The other day the confessor was aeisea wnetner Maria Tatet prophesied any further danger from the Garibaldians. .'Yes,' he answered, 'and in those davs we shall see the Tiber as full ot corpses as it now is of rJsh.' At this moment fish are so abundant in the Tiber, owing to the floods from the Umbrla, that the Komans ptcK tnem out 01 the water with their handf." FINANCIAL. EAST INDJA TELEGRAPH.

She bas no postal system, and her ouly means cow of communicating Information Is by conrler on land, and by steamers on water. The Western World kn.ws that China Is a very large cennlry, in the main densely peopled; bat tew yet realize that she contains more than a third of th human race. The latest retnrns made to her central authorities for taxing purposes, by tbe local magi. trates make her population bur Hundred and Four teen AliUione, and tLls la more likely lo be under than over the actusl aggregate. Nearly all of these who re over ten year old not only can, but do read and write. Her civilization Is peculiar, but her literature Is bs extensive as that of JCurope, China Is a land of teachers and traders; and the latter are ezoeedluily quick to avail tl euiselvea of every proffered facility for procuring early Information. It is observed la California that the Chinete make great use of the telegraph, though It there transmits messages in En glish alone To-day, great numbers of fleet steamers are owned by Chinese merchants, and used by them exclusively for the transmission of early intelligence. If the teiegrapb we propose, connecting all their great seaports, weie now in existence, It Is believed that Its business would pay Its cost within tha first two years of Its successful operation, and would steadily Increase thereafter.
