'Trabner's Record contains the follciw
ingletter from" Mr. 'Catlin:
Kr, the American ethnographia;
whose , extensive 'travels have led' him
through the wildest and rudest scenery
of. Auterica r has turned his attention for
several •years past, from the Indiana to
rocks, and has made in these studies troy.
aalgeess to South America, to the Rocky
Mountains. the Andes, and, the Antilles,
the result of which he iftrepring , to
publish:in. a work entitled "The Lifted
and Subsided Rocks of America, with
their Influences on, the Oceanic. Atmos
pheric and Land Currents." And one of
the striking features of this book seems
to be, to quote his own words, "the , dis
covery of a river under the Rocky Moun
tains many times larger than the Missis
sippi, its course nearly twice the Missis
aippi's length, and gliding through, the
clean and vast rocky cellars of the up
heaved mountains without the losses by

among broken , up and angular. rocks, are
on their way to the ocean level.
• Through the anti heated vaults un
derneath the Andesi, I contemplate a sim

carrying their overflowing waters also to
the Carribean Bea.
• The Antilles, now partially sunk in the

which, six thousand years ago, stood up
in their
. grandeur, a part .(and, probably,
the glory) of the Andes; and at that date
the two mighty submontagne rivers meet
/ ing and debouching together into the
ocean, Eastor North of the Antilles, com

coast oU Venezuela, where this mighty
chain was broken; records which I have
twice seen, which may be read by all ages
to come, and which are - not , myths or fa

In this tremendous catastrophe, probe
biy the most stupendoun that ever took
place on the' murface =of the globe, the
Peninsula of Yucatan, . with its splendid
Aztec cities, sank, anckaince has partially
risen, leaving the two grand sunken est
uaries, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Car
liberal Bea, into which two subterranean
rivers, from ;the constant overflow of
their vast cisterns, under the mountains,
now spread their clear and blue waters,
heated by the volcanic furnaces they have
Asset. By the joint influx of these rivers
into the Carribean Sea, its Western sur
face is elevated several feet above the
level of the ocean. ' and pouring into the
Gulf of Mexico, sweeping the Western
coast, and taking in its way the waters of
Rio del Norte and the Mississippi, this
vast flood debouches with them into the
Atlantic, at the Florida Cape, and there
becomes the Gulf Stream, until now one
of the mooted puzzles of the world.
A Few Things That Are to Be;
Before 1900 science and art will have
so advanced as to have affected complete
revolutions in many of the industrial pro
- ceases and methods of securing health,„
comfort, and convenience to the human'
race. Vast gas manuntetories will be
found in all the great cities and towns,
in which the invisible agent will be man
ufactured solely for the purpose of cook
ing the food and warming the dwellings
of the inhabitants. These Works will be
independent of those established for ma.
king illuminating gas: It will not be
necessary to purify the fuel gas so fully,
and it will, in most places, be made from
wood. The cost will be so low, and the
convenience so great, other kinds of fuel
will, in a great measure, be dispensed
with. No ashes, no smoke, no dust—
what a glorious realliation this will be
At that time, theist; theearth, and thetea
will be fall of conducting wires, and elec
. trio currents *ill Sew constantly in every
direction: A new 'order of things will
prevail in our post offices. 'The click of
the telegraph.instrument will be heard;
instead of the snap of the lock which
closes tt_p wide months of the mail
bags. The install sum of ten cents (per.
haps less) will place correspondents in
instant oommunication with etch otheri
no matter how widely they may be sepa.
rated. ' Although the industrial art will
bale. ;enormously' increased, - less steam
power will -be employed. of
some of the hidden forces, otiliatire
~wil be harnessed to the primary moving
wheels of the great manufacturing estab;:
lishmeuts, and smoke and vapor will no
longer mark their location to the distant
traveler. The sick will not be required
to swallow disgusting doses of medicine.

Mr. 'Jima GieetiwOddOlitr , i'Lettlin
Ourual,” writes to the , Morniktly Star ,
7amiterience, among.lite .preserresall ,
sailors and ; passengers., H is- story Aug :
gests the inquir y whether the life preserv
ers an our - ships and ; steamboats are an,
better than these - desCribed by him: - Some
years ago, it was discoiered that the In
dia rubber buoys in the state rooms of .
Lake Erie steamers had been msed'es pin
cushions by lady passengers. Mr. Green
wood went among the sailor's shops and .
bOuglit life buoys with the - following re
suit:
One was branded "warranted , cxirk
iwood," one "all cork," and the third
!simply bore the word "warranted." They
ranged in price from six shillings to seven
and sixpence. They were all three car
ried home and dissected, with the follow
ing. results: • " •
No. 1 ("warranted,") when its flimsy
yellow skin was slit, was discovered to
consist bodily of straw, sparely covered
with cork shavings , for, the satisfaCtiOn, it
is presumed, of any cautions mariner
who might feel disposed to risk a like slit
in his purchase, so as to make sure of its
quality before be paid for it.
No. 2 ("warranted") was stuffed with
rushes.
No. 8 ("all cork") cork chips and
rushes, about twenty per cent, of the for
mer and eighty of the latter.
To test. the buoyant capability of the
threedetected impostures,they wereplaced
in water, a - weight. of ten pounds- being
attached to each. This was the result:

".warranted Stood

nearly twolows and then subcumbed.
' corkl%—Floated for four hours
and then sera- from ..vieW. •
Here is a pretty revelation 1 In our in-
bred love for the sea and all that pertains
to it, in this morethan in any other direc
tion do our sympathy and charity' extend.
An appeal for funds to float a life-boat on
any , dangerout; coast is seldom or never
Made in vain. We hive hearty despis
ing for all "crimps" rand gong shore"
sharks, who prey on the seaman, and
fleece him of hfshard earnings, more than
all. - Of all men, none soy utterly ab
horred as the "wrecker," the cold-blooded
villain who, by means of false lights and
signals, betrays a vessel to certain de
stxuction. for the sake of such Plunder as
the shattered hulk and the bodies of
drowned men may yield. What, then,
must be our opinion of the man who, for
the sake of an extra profit of half a
crown, consigns a fellow -creature to the
lingering torture of death' by gradual
drowning? To be sure, it may o ft en
happen that, cast on the flux of the wil
derness of water, the possessor of a life
buoy deserving the name may, in the end,
be worse off than the man who has no such
hope left him out of the wreck of his ship,
and "goes down . and have done with it;"
but who; since ihis wretched imposture
began, may reckon the instances of des
perate hope all unexpectedly mocked to
death; of life lost that would have been
saved, had the promise that the_ treacher
ous buoy held out but proved true? Nay,
how many men, and women, too—emi.
grant mothers bearing up their little chil
dren in the fathomless waters—have been
cheated out of their lives by abandoning
the spar or plank for the more hopeful
looking ring of stuffed canvas "warranted
solid cork wood," hut which is no more
than straw and rags, and soddens and
sinkt3, dragging the clingers with it?
FEnsaxtoo Po, where the prisoners of
State in Cuba are to be conveyed, is an
island, 44 miles long and 20 miles broad,
situated on the west coastof Africa, in the
Bight of Biafra, about 20 miles from the
nearest point of the mainland. Fernando
Po is in•latitude about 8 deg, 80 min. north,
is traversed by a mountain ridge which at
Clarence Peak rises to theheigheof 10,880
feet, or over two mike, is fertile, well
watered and thickly wooded. It contains,
in a state of nature, larze flocks of goats
and sheep, and swarms of monkeys of
great size. The climate, excessively hot
at all times, becomes intolerable during
.the rainy season, when a pestilential wind
blows from the continent of Africa. The
native population consists of twelve thou
sand negr oes , . inhabiting fifteen ; villages.
The Eng lish Godernment, between 1827
and 1834, gli made an attempt to form a col
ony, but failed. In 1844, Spain again
took possession and established a penal
settlement.
Tux snow sheds of the Central Pacific
Railroad extend for a continuous distance
of twenty-two miles, with a breadth of
sixteen feet, and a height 'of sixteen feet,
not including the pitch of the roof. The
sides are inclosed, and the sheds resemble
a long tunnel, lighted at the sides through
the interatices between theboards. The
,building is braced to,gether substantial
manner, and is bolted to the , rocks
wherever the road approaches the edges
of cliffs. Where now slides are to be
feare'd, the roof is extended to the wallof
rocks, so that thelalling masses shall be ,
deposited'on the other side,, down in the
ravine. Where sideliogs have beelt laid,
:the shed is siider than sixteen feet. The
-entire building covers an area, of More
than 1,858,5150 square feet, or forty-three
acres. Over 40,000,000 running feet of
, lumber tutve been'used in building these
sheds. -
BaronAw Yourto lately lectured the
ladies of ktormondom on education, and
among other remarks, made these _Pert!?
