Professor Boedecker, however, has just completed a aeries of experiments conducted oe quite new principle. The question be proposed to himself was whether milk obtained at any hour of the day always pre sented the same chemical composition ornnt ; and he has arrived at the result that the milk of the evening is richer by :1 per cent. than that of the morning ; the latter contain- Mg only 10 per cent. of solid matter, and the former 13 per cent. On the other hand, the water contained in milk dimi nishes by 3 per cent. in the coume of the day ; in the morning in contains 81) per cent. of water, and only tei percent. in the evening. The fatty particles Manua gradnally as the day wears on. ID the morning they amount to 217 per cent. ; at noon, to 253, sod in the evening to 3'42 per cent. This eireurnstance, if true, would be very important in a pear. Heal point of view. Let us suppose a kilogramme of milk to yield only the sixth part of its weight of butter ; then the milk of the evening may yield double that quantity. The moons particles are also more abundant in the evening than in the morning : from 2/4 they increase to 2'70 per cent ; bet the quantity of albumen diminishes from 0'44 to O• 31.

PRIISSIL A communication from Berlin has the following : The Premien ministry has not yet come to any definitive reardation upon the modifications to which the bill on the military organisation is to be subjected. Deliberatkes are, however, going on actively to the cabinet u the time for the meeting of the Chambers draws rear, and the ministers understand the necessity of nuking some concessions to pmliament. Immediately after the arrival of the Prince Royal from Vienna the King presided at a conference, at which the Minster of War and to heeds of the different corps were preeent. Several generals are said to have de clared for fixing provisionally the time of military service at two years during the next five years. The following is taken from a Berlin letter : The King of Prussia has onoferred the title of count on M. Von Usedom. If this title is, on the one hand, a com pensation for the diplomatist, who, although intended for the poet of Turin, has renounced it in order to procerd to Rama, it is, at the same time, ma anknowledgment of the eminent senior which R. Von Usadom has rendered to Prussia. It h unerted that M. Bramisr de St. Simon his hew real ied lama Twin because he complained, with some acrimony, that the Prince Royal, in coming from Roma, did not pass through Turin. LIFEBOAT SERVICES. The following is an extract from the quarterly report of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution : Darin the past year (1862)316 lives have been directly rescued by lifeboats of the National Lifeboat Institution from a 'natty grave, mid 21 vessels have bee. safely brought into port through the instrumentality of the lifeboats. The lifeboats went 0'43 time. in reply to signals of dietrese from ships in danger, but wbioh in the meantime lad either N otepad it or bad had their crews saved by other means. The lifeboat,' crews bad also assembled on nine oomeioas in stormy weather to be ready for amorgencieviexpectedtoarise. We feel assured that no one am peruse them accounts without experiencing a satisfaction which can better be felt than expremed. Let anyone think of the feelings of these 136 persona thus snatched, during'stormy weather, from an apparently inevitable death by the lifeboats of the institution. Although such services can onlj be pro perly appreciated by the persona themselves cm whom such important benefit has been conferral in their hour of dis tress. yet they are always keenly and gratefully acknow ledged by the wives and children or pulsate of the men saved, who would otherwise have become widows, orphans, or childless. The acknowledgment. of the National Life boat Institution are, of came, mainly due to those who have contributed to this large amount of human bappinesa, by manning the lifeboat", or by subscribing towards their establishmentand support. Rewards amounting to 730/.ls led. have been voted by the institution to the crews of the life boat, for their laudable services during the put year. We also refer wi th great pleasure to the accounts o f the services rendered by shore boats, and other means, rein life from wrecks on our shores duriog the preceding year. Some of thews services have been of the noblest character, for it should be borne in mind that men engaged during Wes of wind in this dangerous work undergo grader risk in open boats than is usually incurred in life boats, which are well adapted for the important work which they have to perform, god which are fully equipped, including excellent lifeboats for their crews. Although fully acknowledging the valuable services of the crews of the so ciety's lifeboats, we are glad to find that the committee of the National Lifeboat Institution proportion their rewards for wring lifefroni shipwreck according to the risk incurred; hence it is seen that the rewards granted to shore boat crews fare frequently in excess, per man, of those voted by the committee to the crews of the Institution's lifeboat.. These reward. continue most materially to stimulate our oust population to make the greatest exertions to save life from shipwreck. The men feel now assured that their ser vices will not go unrequited ; and also that, in the event of a calamity overtaking them, their widows and orphans will not be forgotten by the National Lifeboat Institution, in conjunction with the benevolent public, which in ever ready to succour cases of real distress. One of the earlicat and most fundamental principles of the institution was to foster and encourage these heroic enterprises, because fishermen's boats are always handy, and are often knell available in localities where it would be impracticable to plant a life boat. From a summary which the Institution gives of its operations during the past three years we observe that is that period 1.408 lives have been rescued from a watery gram by the joint efforts of its lifeboats and shore boats, far which united services the society has granted awards, ithicaniting to 3,3421. fie. 7d., in addition to 68 silver models. The number of lives eared by the lifeboats of the society and other means since it. formation is 12,900, for which services 82 gold medals, 718 silver medals, and 16,413/. in cash have been paid in rewards. The institution has also expended 66,8801. co lifeboats, lifeboat transporting-car riages, and boathouses. Deeply sensible of the great re sponsibility that ruts on the institution to maintain its large life-saving fleet of 123 lifeboats in a thoroughly effi cient state, and its crews practised in the management of the huts, which can only be effected by a large permanent annual income, the committee of the National Lifeboat In stitution earnestly appeal to all Clllllll4l. of their countrymen to aid them in upholding and perpetuating so great and truly national a work. The Tribunal of Commerce of Paris has just I given a judgment of great importance to tradesmen who are in the habit of transmitting orders by telegraph. M.

In prosecuting my investigations on this point, although I havefailed to detect soy well-defined specimens of Globigerins in colt* I have been rewarded by discover ing that it consists eassentially of an allied monothalamoas genus.

Although perforating mollusks are living at greet depths,l do not think there are any grounds for appre hending thatthey would bore into • telegraph cable. I am also inclined to believe that there is little chance of a cable getting injured if laid down on foramisiferous bot toms ; as in such places vital and chemical actions appear to be going on so unceasingly and copiously, that • cable thus circumstanced could not but become covered in the course of a few years with organic accumulations. The survey has bean fothanate in bringing to light moms interesting facts in naiercecopie life. It has also made known some species of shells and other animals new to the British Fauna ; besides extending our knowledge of the habitats of certain nue species. Rising not over suddenly out of the " telegraph Plata= 4 to within 85 fathoms of the surface of the ocean, at the I distance of 120 miles from the south coast of Galway, and forming the most westerly " " on the Irish meat, occurs the newly-discovered "Porcupine Bank." It oon sista of siliceous and and coarsish gravel, the latter chiefly composed of sub-angularpieces of granular quartzite (? meta morphic), granite, thloritic quarts, fro.; along with which occur considerable quantities of the debris of Nullipores, shells, and other organisms. The larger rock-pieces, some of which are three or four inches in diameter, have often adher -1 ing to them fresh specimens of Trasoatulins and various genera of Bryrreoa ; occasionally they bear specimens of Crania anomala. In most cams the living objects are attached only to the sides, or upper surface of the stones, which shows that the water at the comparatively incon siderable depth where they live is not much affected by storms and other disturbing agents. A number of fishes was procured by the dredge on this bank in about eighty fathoms water : one • species of Peett•, allied to the " whiff " ; another a species of Sebastss, allied to the Norwegian haddock ; both appear to be unrecorded as British.• There were also brought up by the dredge from the depth of • hundred fathoms Pilidicm folviun, Limatula subauricukta, Scissarella crispata, Lode pypicea, Ares raridentata, and other shells, numbering in all nearly fifty pieces; besides sponges, star-fishes, see,- urchins, tie. The same prolific, Lank yielded in abundance a large hermit crab, specimens of which were obtained tenantiog one of the rarest British shells, &minim ovum- There also came up in the dredge a specimen of Litoriee litorea, which, notwithstanding its insignifi cance, requires to be mentioned. The specimen is an adult one ; and, though broken, it has • fresh appearance. and retains interiorly its characteristic polish. Bow has this shell, which only lives between ordinary tide-marks, sod feeds on the Films peculiar to this tract, got into 80 or 90 fathoms water, and at the distance of 120 miles from the shore ? It may have been swallowed by a cod or some other fish, and carried thither ; it may have got en tangled in the root, of • seaweed, which afterwards floated out into deep water; or it may have been taken out there by some vessel, and swept overboard. With regard to the bottom, near the landing places, I can only speak of that on this side of the Atlantic. Between the North Isle of Arran and the Galway coast there is " foul ground." The rocks. *dear from those on the adjacent land, are evidently rooadsd hammocks and detached blocks of mynahs, and granite, with lathes' wore down by the action of geologically-seeker* field toe and other glacial agenta, such as now prevail la Omer load aid Alpine regions. Instead of twos dengsroes to • cable, provided it had the ordinary protective towing, these submarine rocks would probably perm* eihraullegeoas, inasmuch as they would prinent trearliag aad We firidag, as well aa the anchoring of skips where they prevnit. It is quite possible in laying down the odds to avoid the Porcupine Bank, which, as I have already sided, dose woe extend south of the parallel of Guide Bay ; but if it should be carried over this bank, no fears need be enter tained of the effects of the heavy NY which chersoterise an Atlantic storm, because, as shows in my 'Preliminary Notice," the smallest stones oomarrieg on flisorfaos exhibit appearances of beteg as little disturbed as if they were at the bottom of • lake. On the other bawd, • buoy might be permanently placed on this bank, is proximity to the cable, to indicate where the latter could be found in nee of accideat ; by this means, the repairing of injuries (which I cannot but conceive would be of vary rare occurrence), ans. Wined on this side of the Atlantic, would be materially expedited. I may, is passing, remark that the Porcupine Bank is an importaat feature in &roar ci looking Galway en Atlantis packet station. In being the most westerly Led-fall ow the coast of Ireland, it will enable steamers, during a fog or cloudy weather, to obtain, by souodings, an early intimation of their approach to land, while, both on the north and on the south, no such advantage exists, because the outer edge of the bundred.fathoms' terrace, of which the bank is an outlier, trends rapidly towards th• land, approaching it to within only • distance of from 25 to 50 miles. If we now refer to the Atlantis sea-bed off the coast of Berry, it will be found to present features of a different character. Beginning at the coat—ay, near Valentin— the bottom slopes down somewhat suddenly to the depth of 525 fathoms ; it next rises again, apparently at the same acgle, till it reaches a level varying from 196 to 230 fathoms below the surface ci the omen, and where it forms • submarine ridge about 25 miles in width, 140 miles from laud, and tenuinatiog southward ow the parallel of Cape Clear. This ridge, which is evidently a tongue or southern extension of the deepest portion of the terrace lying off Galway, declines rapidly—that is, on its western side—to a depth of from 1.500 to 1,700 fathoms. Further out, the bottom sinks to 2,040 fathoms. Now' if we refer to Manry's map, it will be seen that the last mentioned woad*, by proesedieg to the south, makes that part of the sea-bed, whine ft was obtained, a portimi of the great three-mikadeep sub marine valley, which runs down to the Cape Verd Islands on the coast of Africa, and which, according to authority cited, actually attains nearly its maximum depth—viz., 2,675 fathoms—somewhere off the south-east coast of Kerry. . . At the depth of 340 fathom• the sounding machine brought up orbulo-glebigerinous mud containing (l feat) specimens of • Pecten, an Arca, and • Peetutanlua, which appear to be new to the British seas; also sped- Unfortunately, the soundings north of the parallel of Valentin, sod nenr the meridian we are sow in, are not sufficiently known, but from the rise of the bottom, se in• dictated by the two last-mentioned souediags, it la to be meos of Trochum millegranns in the same condition. A perfectly fresh specimen of a Cochlodesma, hitherto unre corded u British, was brought up front the depth of a thousand fathoms, and at the distance of a hundred miles west of Cape Clear. But the most unexpected fact in this record of deep-sea life is my finding Disci= (Orbicula) in swipes ted that the three-miles-deep valley gradually rime up to the two miles-deep telegraph plateau, somewhere on the parallel of Loop Head, in Clare. It may possibly extend much farther north ; still, even in this ease, it cannot but have lode its distinctive character, and become reduced to a mere trough on the telegraphic plateau. mud from 1,240 fathoms, taken in N. lat. 62.8, W. lon. 15.30, on the eastern aide of the great three-milee.deep submarine valley which runs from the Cape Vent Islands, on the coast of Afnoa, up to Kerry or further north, where it rises into the two•miles•deep "telegraph plateau." 1. Fragments of a branching coral (Caryophyllia) and a large. s pilled sea-urchin have also occurred to me from other parts of the Irish Atlantic sea bed. Too much credit cannot be awarded to Mr. Iloak7n and the officers of the Porcupine for the real which they dis played in collecting and preserving the various objects I have noticed. Their labours. it is well known, were fre quently conducted under the most adverse circumstances, sod during a singular succession of unfavourable weather. Nevertheless, the results of the survey, both as regards geology and natural history, are highly valuable. Belmont, near Galway. 0/3812VATIONS ON THE PIOPOSID TILICEAPH CO11111:21CA- It will now be seen that a telegraphic cable running from any part of Kerry most of necessity cross two valleys, the eseteromost on., upwards of half a mile is depth, and the westernmost, about three miles, before it reaches the tato graph platers. Nothing is known of the western side of the deepest valley, but its eastern side appears to be some what steep, and it is to be feared, in some places rocky. The specimen of Dimino, a shell which lives flied to stones, rocks, and other objects, mentioned in my preliminary notice as having been taken on the east Side of the valley, at the depth of 1,240 fathoms, may be regarded as support ing this apprehension. The difficulties attending this route, however, may very possibly be overcome by carefully selecting the courts where unfavourable circumstances least prevail, and allow ing sufficient length of cable to be payed out, so as it may rest on every portion—not only elevations, but depressions —of the irregularities of the sea-bed._ TION UTWUN INELAND AND NEWFOUNDLAND. II YEO. TENSOR WILLIAM KING. In 000clumoo, I may remark that it appears to me that the conditiots most favourable for a telegraph cable between Having under examination the objects obtained front the Irish Atlantic sea bed by her ItLijany's ship Porcupine, of which a preliminary swine by myself appeared in the last number of the Nautical Magazine., my attention has been at the same time directed to the nature of the deep-ece soundiegs on the west coast of ,Ireland, with reference to the establishment of a telegraph connexion between this country and Newfoundland. thin country and Newfoundland area gentle, undulating in shore bottom, extending far into the Atlantic before &team ing any great depth, and its outer edge panning down to the deep telegraph plateau by a not over rapid falL These eon. claims can be found nowhere on the coasts of Ireland, ex empt off Galway, where also occurs the Porcupine Beak the advantages of which bare already been stated. Belmont, near Galway, Nov. is, 1862. Before proceeding further, I feel it necessary to state that, previously to entering on a consideration of the latter subject I held no particular view in favour of any one place for the eastern terminus of the cable. Indeed, I con. fees to baring entertained considerable doubt as to the prac ticability of successfully carrying a cable actors the At lantic at all. I also wish it to be widentood that .I am not writing against any piece whatever, for I feel convinced that it will be requisite ultimately to lay down two or snore telegraph cables, and probably from different parts of the coast. It beenmes my duty, however, on the present occasion to show that Galway presents in many points of view claims which particularly recommend it for selection as one of the stations. Look's( at Mr. Restyles valuable "Report on the Deep Sea Smedley to the Westward of Ireland," and BUPPLIMINTAIT •OIR. Mr. Hoskyn preserved specimens of deep sea soundings i• bottles containing spirits, by which means they have been prevented from drying, and have retained their original nos sietency. Orbuloilobigerinous mud, thus preserved, has quite the appearance of a thickish batter panto. To wbat depth below its surface the deposit continues is • pasty condition has not yet been ascertained. The " bull dog ma:hine," so successfully used on board her Majesty's ship Porcupine, brought up large quantities of it ; we may therefore conclude that the deposit was penetrated to the depth of • few inches. Further, if we take into consideration the enormous vertical pressure of the ocean in deep places, it is difficult to conceive otherwise than that water would be forted to a considerable depth into the permeable mod, forming the two miles-deep " telegraph plateau." Under these conditions, we may fairly assume that, at least, its surface mass is highly charged with water, and oecaequent}y so soft that a body like a telepaph eabi. so•Y •eh romii lour on it without being covered op.
