explained to be tho doctrine of forms and

it so happens that the brilliant colors in the
plumage of the peacock, or the stripes on tho

is quite beyond our ken. The tact is unde

M. Coignct, in his rojiMrt, to the Society of
Civil Kiigineers, shows to what perfection tho
nit of manufacturing artificial .stone biis
reached in Franco. In the composition of
this stone the following indications are given:
for walls, four or live parts of sand and one
of lime: a line of masonry one yard high can
be raised dally. For the lighthouse of Port
Said, with nu elevation of lifty-fivo yards, to
be finished within fivo months, the sand of
the desert will be used: it will be run up with
out any danger at the rate of half a yard
daily. For vaults, from a quarter to a half
port of cemont is added to the above compo
sition, for the purpose of increasing security.
For pavement, able to resist hard scrubbing,
the composition is four to live parts sand, one
lime, and one part cement. Quarry sand
innry lime may be safely used: in the
f Fontainobloau the sloue is made with

Tropical VCKclntioii.
It is a very prevalent opinion thai tropical
countries far surpass temperate countries in
' abundance and brilliancy ot the (lowers,
urn in me magniuceni. nppearanco ot nuu-
ureiis oi loresi-trees covered wit u musses ot
olored blossoms. On this subject, Mr.
Wallace (thau whom few have had better
means of judging) says: ''My whole expe
rience in the equal orial regions of the West
and the East has convinced mo that, in the
most luxuriant parts ot the tropics, (lowers
are less abundant, on the average less showy.
md are far less effective in adding color to
the landscape, than in temperat3 climates."
1 he erroneous view has arisen, lie. thinks.

It is well understood that the cause of the
phenomena of reasons is the inclination of the
earth's axis to the piano of its orbit; and the
dillercnces of terrestrial climate from tho
present, which are believed to have existed in
posl-geologienl times, are supposed to be con
netteu'with a change ol this inclination ot
the earth's axis, lint what and whence nro
the causes which have changed it? The trene
ral opinion has been that they are astronomi
cal, and due to the varying attractive in
fluences of tho planets. 15ut a book has just
been published bv Air. Samuel Mossmau, in
which the chfiiigo is ascribed to geological
causes. His theory is as follows: "The
earth, in an early period of its history, had
its nxis of rotation nt right ancles to the
plane of its orbit. At this time its surface
was nil water no land had yet been up

crust, cast up in a succession
of .upheavals the continents of the Northern
hewnsphere. Ihis upheaval of laud in the
Northern was accompanied by a complemen
tary, depression in tho bouthern hemisphere;
the formation of tho continents in the latter
hemisphere did not occur till a much later
period in tho earth's history. This disturb
ance of the position of the solid portions of
the earth threw by degrees tho axis of the
earth's rotation into obliquity with the piano
of its orbit, until this obliquity, by the succes
sion of upheavals, became at least twice ai
great as it is at present. A transference of
volcanic activity from the Northern to the
Southern hemisphere, producing there the
Southern continents, but principally that of
South America, then took place, giving rise
to n gradual diminution of the obliquity of
the earth's axis, still going on nt the present
time. Ihis degree of obliquity was greatest
at the commencement of tho older tertiary
formation, and r ,,"t period, therefore, the
