Curious Hypothesis.

We have spoken OF foolish enterprlzc
of an American who proposes TO go TO ihe
North Pole in order 10 discover great orl-
fee, by which he believes he could pene-
trate to the centre OF the globe, where he i
masines he could find habitabie lands -
There is a German, Mr.. Steinh"user. who
announces in The Literary Gazette oi bal
lie, hypothesis Of the same kind. 10
explain the variation OF the magnetic nee
die, he supposes that, in the interior OF or
globe. at the depth OF about 10 miles,
there exists another small body which per-
forms round the centre Of the earth re-
yolu,ion from west to east, IN a period oil
44O years. This small glooe, ehdueh
with magnetic attraction, would be Tue
cause OF the variation Of The magnetic nee
die. The calculation. of Mr.. Steinhauser
appear 10 agree exactly with experience /;
he had predicted in 1905 thai the needle
would be Tor time stationary, aud at the
present epoch would reirograde towards
the east; which has in fact taken place
He has given TO his subterranean planet the
name of Pluto. Mariners, according 10
Mr.. Steinhauser, will have no more occa-
sion to observe the celestial bodies, 10 guide
them at seat will be sufficient tor them
10 understand the motion Of the Pluto, by
observation of the magnetic variation
These ideas, all extravagant as they ap-
pear. are not altogether new. Some per-
sons have already, nearly century since,
nsguec the hypothesi SIS OF metallic or
magnetic kernel in cuE globe.

We were engaged on this excursion about
six weeks. After our return to Sierra Leone,
we finished our enquiries in that co'ony,
and became satisfied that there was no subj
Gent reason for our wasting the rainy
months on HE coast, and that we could DO
more with advantage to promote the OBJ
jects of the AIMEE Society: we should
lave been happy t56ave sailed directly 10
the Unileu States, but, as there was no A.
merican ship in The vicinity, we improved
the only opportunity which offered, and
took passage for England in the brig Sue
cess: we did not regret this circumstance
greatly, as there appeared 10 ne some deil-
mite reasons for visiting England.
When taking our last views OF the African
continent, which, ior the sake OF others,
we had so earnestly desired 10 see, We rem
dered thanks TO God, and expressed cur
congratulations to each other, that the prIn-
cIpal laJours and dangers OF our embassy
were now past. The nature oil the ciI-
mate, and the unknown circumstances IN
which we might he placed, were subjects
OF mature reflection before we left our couH-
try. Our minds were prepared 10 meet
dangers, and endure trials, whicu, through
divine goodness, never occurred. Cur
prospect appeared fair 10 return 10 our cou"-
try, and see the face Of. our irie,.l, ia
peace.
But the period Of that event no" ap-
proaches respecting which neither ny
