A mystery has for ages hung over these famed waters. The most vague ideas, the most wild and erroneous impressions have prevailed ; and travellers, who haw strayed on its shores and glanced at their mournful solitudes, have given their crude and. imperfect observations, and added to the existing stock of wonders and horrors so widely diffused. So well known as are most parts of the earth, to which great. historical events have imparted a deep interest, it was time that some adventurous spirit should arise in our age, and that science should. lift the veil from the doubt and uncertainty that shrouds the subject. That spirit was Lieutenant Lynch of our Navy, : and our country had the honor - of embarking in the enterprise." Pubiic curiousity was keenly excited. The truth was a great considern turn. The time had passed by when the wondrous tales of travellers are swallowed with credulity. ; and men were prepared to glean facts and phenomena from. an authen-- tic source, and to: draw deductions for them selves. The present is an investigating and 'a reasoning age, and nothing but truth, tvell-established truth, will - satisfy it.' It can not be denied that our commander has ex hibited,great zeal and energy ; that he has shown great firmness and tact in surmolint-, ing obstacles; acute observation, and the, greatest industry in collecting facts. His preparations were made with judgement, and an admirable precaution. Every sup posed difficulty was anticipated and guard-. ed,agaiast. . The equipment. was complete. His . two, metallic. boats, easily transported across the land, the one,of copper, the other of galvanized iron, were admirably suited to the There . were in all sixteen per sons iri - cbe'paiiy., In transporting the boats to the sea of Tlberias, the Syrian horses re , fused to draW, and'Oaineli Were substituted in their stead.

We have gone somewhat into these three points, because in the Apoerapha, in the Wisdom of Solomon, x. 7, they are alluded to in speaking of the cities of the plains,. From constructions put upon this passage, and trona the representahuns.of some trav ellers, the.4e errors, so generally einertained, seems to have sprung. 'l'hat the water from the impregnation of salt and bitumen is greatly heavier than the ocean, our trav ellers declare, as well as the fact of its ex treme buoyancy - . Many curious illustra tions of these !acts are gi venon Mr. Lynch's' book, to which we refer the reader, and which have been mentioned by' many oth ers. Many annoying and peculiar sensa tions and effects resulted from bathing. A highly irritated state of the skin, and febrile symptoms, and prostration of strength seem to be the eikCt produced on the system by the totettbe heat and the quality of the wa ters. The leafless branches of the bushes on the shores were encrusted with the salt, and sparkled like icicles in the sun. The copper boat, wnen overhauled, was found to be wearing away rapidly, and when ex posed to•the immediate friction of the fluid, was us bright as burnished gold. Theshores presented the appearance, from the incrus tation ofsalt, of being whitewashed. The very footprints upon the beach were coated. wan crystalization. These are strikin4 , facts mentioned by Lieutenant Lynch.
