Tlio most simple of scientific fuels
arc those leant understood by the i?en-
crulity of readers, and the bet attest
cd and mowt carefully developed of
modern truths arc those that receive
, -rpftrM t.v j0 not un(lerstiind.
It is a melancholy fact, that men
whose names now, nro emblazoned in
the galaxy of fume, tlio bcnutiful aciii
tiluliona of wlionu genius, i1unhiti like
niimmer'R lightning in tho Iroubletl
pky of Bficnco, light tho weary pule
meed student amid tlio (horny paths,
where lie the pearls of hidden nature,
were men whom cotcmporanooti pub
lic opinion had doomed to a lilu of
woo. llurvey to whom wo owe un
appreciated dol'ts of gratitude, for his
unparalleled discovery of tho circu
lutory ayatcin j Davy to whom Kng
land owes tho past and present proa
pcrity of her mit rml woallh ; uh
ington, even our own Washington,
who made ovory aacriflco for ouri
country good, had to contend with
tho liJca of popular fooling, and each
bad to struggle with the conuolincr
hope tlmt futurity would do justice
to Ilia memory.
Such opposition likewiso do some
facts of modern acieneo meet with ul
tho hands of those, w ho do not under
stand them; as the formation of the
earth, tho relative aye of successive
strata, the form, hize, nnd habits of
tho fierce batracbians, huge birds, and
mighty mammoths, that roamed sole
monarchs of an uninhabited world.
To tho same scale of disputed facts, is
referred tho well attested geological
principles, that tho interior ( our
earth is a molten mass of fiery liijuid,
where, tho hardest substances
"Feetb. and boil aa a put.'
Tlio eye of the experienced geologist
easily detects tlio igneous agency of
other days, in tho numerous upheavals
w hoso jagged edges project from our
mountain sides. Jicsidcs tlio assort!
vus of scientific men, w o have not only
palpablo evidence, but irrefragable
pioofs of tho earth's inlernul heat.
It is observed that the influence of
tho solar rays ccaso after tho first
hundred feet from tho surface, but on
entering mines below that depth, the
tempcrattiro increases about ten Kali,
for every sixty or seventy feet. I'.vcn
at this increaso a point would be
attained at no very great depth,
wbero it would be impossible for the
hardest rocks and metals to ithstand
the excessive bent.
The question then propounds itself,
does this beat continue to increase,
may it not be owing to local ciiusesT
And before great depths were reached, I
might not heal lio entirely suspended :
To tho first wo miilil reply, that in
all parts of the world, and in every
kind of roik Ihrongit which mines
obwrvod
As to tho second, we can unhesita
tingly reply that from tho most raro
ful observations of men, w ho visited
curtain wells in different parts of the
world, the above rule is verified. Tho

aris rising from the depth ol !;

tho city shows a mean temperature
of 63 Fab. This shows an averavo ,
increase in the temperature of the

feet. Very accurate observations

CLEAHFIELD, PA., WEDNESDAY, JUNE 29,
Beginning 11 1 tho north amid the
haunts of tho Kamschutkain, this
giguntic chain runs south, through
tho l'lii ilo, Japan, l'hillipine, Sunila,
Australian Isles to the volcanoes of
Kiebus and Terror, in Sun th Victoria
Laud, returning along tho eastern
coast of South America nnd Mexico,
the series completes its circuit through
tho Allentiuii Isles. These facta offer
unmislaknhlo evidences of tho lirono-
sitiou embodied in this article, and
as mortals, subject to tho ills of mor
tality, should enforco upon our minds
the moral fact, Unit while wo dread
disease and accidents and shun their
causes, wo aro standing on a trap so
lalal that tlio uioinculury suspension
of nature's. laws would completely
I annihilate man nnd bis proudest
works, in tho
"Twinkling of an eye."
Wo might add, that the crust of the
earth is supposed to be about eighty
miles, and it increases in thickness by
cooling about nino metres, or thirty
feot every UOUO years. This would
decrease the length of tho day one
sixteenth of a second. Uut tho fric
tion caused by the tides equalling
six thousand millions of horse power,
would increaso the length of the day,
one sixteenth of a second in 2UUU
years; thus are those opposing in-
fluences reconciled, and tho day is no
longer than it was 111 the tiuio cf;

"Race" and "Colors-White vs. Black.
Somo men aro born stupid, somo bo-
come so after they aro born, and sonic
nave stupidity suddenly thrust upon
them through parly associations.
The editor ol the 'ew York .Stand
ard ought to know better than to
make so stupid an observation as tho
following : ".Nothing could bo more
ridiculous than tho attempt to tnako
race or color a party test." The now
somewhat widely known editor of the
iSlandard was not born "stupid,"
but ho appears to have become so by
his associations. "Itaco" or "color"
lias nover been made n party test.
"liaco" or "color," as here used, nro
simply terms w hich convey tho scien
tific fact of "inferioriiy ;" and w hen
such is the casc,then "raco" or "color"
should niako a party test ; but "raco"
is tlio wrong term, it should read
"fprcies." It is not color the While
Democracy object to, but tho "inferi
ority" which llm u.-iid "rnlnrnd" Rie-
cies are born with, and which hus
ever unfitted them for solt'irovcrii-
moni. Tno White Han's I'uitv il.

There aro two great difficulties con

Ono is that wc have to deal w ith it,
not as a new question, but as a very t

thefoo. Tho great ot'ject is Iheriloio j
to prevent a recurrence of such (
scenes. 1 no riiicl point gained lo
that end will bo toiiuiko the Indian
lindei'slsnd that his warfare tipori
lho whito man, though it may Falisfy
for the limo bis hubiliial animosities,
must inflict greater sutlering on him
self by the punishment it entails, and
in the end, result in its extermination.
It would bo a grand fact accomplish
ed should the new commission, sus
tained by the power of tho Govern
ment, succeed in teaching him that
wholcsomo lesson.
Another difTlcully of tht Indian
question is one fully as serious as that
w hich I have just stated. Wo aro loo
much iu lho habit of considering tho
Indian tribes as all aliko iu their ca
pacity for civilization. .Nothing cat)
bo more incorrect, as our whole, expe
rience shows. There are Indians and
