only cooled down a matter of fifty or a
hundred miles of the crust. This molten

If the
earth was ever a molten mass It is rea
sonable to conclude that as it has cooled
on the surface it has cooled all the way
through ; and there is no trouble about
giving it all the time it needs for the
cooling piocess. Men of science take
all the time they want for the work of
the world's creation. A few millions or
billions of years, more or less, are of no
no possible consequence to them. And
as it is conceded that the earth is cooled
off for a hundred miles down, we can
affirm that the cooling process is done
with, and that there is a polar coldness
down at the centre ; and we find it get

to place the least confidence in their

transpired that he owes the government
fifty-ene thousand dollars, dating back
to tbe time when he was Revenue Col

Andrew Johnson. It seems that, under
tbe law an officer cannot draw his salary
when he is indebted to the Treasury, and
as Saurders would have been obliged to
serve twenty years in his new office be
fore his salary would extinguish his
indebtedness to the govern ment, which
was a state of affairs ho never dreamed
of, he concluded to withdraw in favor of
