'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 alluvial 'absorptions and solar evapora tionsi Which diminish valliy rivers, it tikes sgong in its- course the sinking Meats and lakes of the mountains of Mateo; and ,with them , perhaPs; a -hundred — mo nths in Vits deep bed lie- Imitates unseen into's-the Carribea n Bea and Gnitof Matte*. , • - , The frequent "Montagne, quifement,!' • ffeatztiett.'!.and• "Blowi*g -lrisees;" Mich esker [lithe Reeky Noun.

Antilles chain, which went down-in the Cataclysm well established in the Indian traditions, I havegathered . both in North and South • America, and also by - unimpeachable records on _the rocks, themselvesby shapes and grooves left on_tisegtant walls at *Caraccas and Banta Martha, on the 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 bles. ' • • , - 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. Remedies will , be administered through,' other avenues thaw the .stomach.

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: i'VrarMnted corkwood"--Sank in an ".warranted Stood .' the, test • for 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!? nent ones: "Bee, in the lashionable world, the education given to a young lady! It consists - mainly of how to bow and curtsey, how to 'meet a gen*eizian' how be graceful 1n a ball roam,,, ho w to get " into and out ; of a carriage, how to walk on the streets;_how high her clothei should, be lifted, or how many feet they, should drat behind - her; and, An' addition' this, to thrtmon the gibuto and have ;a smattering Of French or Italian. - „Thole are what should - he- **led female loafers; the no good , to tirentselveiler any body They cannot knit their stock ' lags, late Weir clressti or itaderclothhAg, Or dd anything useful" • EMmEN „11i0441a .suatt .that ' age w dr,P4oled b'POlll:Pegiodiel and kW time .1860' , thall4P o olo. en gaining on., the neryotts,Ana ni n . lose blood nowt' according to these stain.; • mentkirho conki mot a; few lears atig, • uThe nervous type;', says onsphysich w octane:in *gib the grit,:chblers Olden:do,' and has hutted about athhdr4areanteri."
