Famine in England.

We take the following from the N. Y.
Sun, which shows the wretched condition
Of the poor of England.
THE FAMINE IN ENcLANr.-The intense
distress prevailing in England authorizes us
to speak of it rs a famine without being
~ctareeablc with exageration. The popula-
lion of Great Britain. including Ireland and
Scotland, is something over twenty.seven
millions. Of this number it is supposed that
at least twenty millions are wholly depend
ent upon their daily labor for the hare neces-
saries of life. In many parts of the kingdom
persons are actually dying from starvation
and want.
Our London correspondent in a letter
which we are obliged to omit for want of
room, says, sin n former letter ! mentioned
that great distress prevailed throughout this
country. l wish ! could tell you that this
vast amount of misery no longer prevails,
but | cannot-with every mail from all parts
of the Kingdom, the accounts are heart-ren.

That it may not be supposed that the pic.

our correspondent we will adopt the lam
guase of a London paper. which thus embo-
dies the fact upon this subject. "Misery has

habitations Of the poor, and the metropolis

floating ice never shows above the
surface more than ~ene.eight of its
bulk, we may reasonably conclude
that islands of sixteen hundred feet
In thickness frequently float from the
Arctic regions to more southern
chimes. 1t is easy to see then, thai
these islands are capable of trapspQy-
ting immense loads of rock. far mole
heavy than the largest ships OF war;
and it is obvious that when these is
lands float into warmer regions, they
must melt and drop their load. Thus
the rocks which come from the most
northern regions are deposited in the
bottom of the southern seas. These
masses, transported thus. may be seen
off the West Coast of South Amer.
ca, and at the island of Chloe. The
process has long been going on, and

The remarks present a very inte-
resting view Of the subject, and there
can be 10 doubt of their correctness;
but they fail to cover the whole
ground. The powders in this part
Of the country, generally show the
effects of attrition; and where they
are derived from rocky strata on this
side OF Lake Ontario, some estimate
may be made Of the distance that
they travelled, from their change oil

occur in regular strata.
Now how lid those powders geI
there? This question would be an
swered very differently by different
persons.
Some believe that stones groU; and
that the pebble Of to-day may be-
come a large rock in future years.
Ia other words, that they grow as ma
turalIy as pumpkins. Nobody, how
ever, has discovered the stem that
rocks grow on; o the veins or Po-
res through which their nutrimen; cir
culates. Animal life and vegetable
life are familiar terms; but mineral
life would be something new in the
language of n~aturalists.
Other people who Qike the torm)
have not studied causes and effects,
quietly conclude that those fragments
have dtudys been there; and see no
reason t. wcndcr at their appearance.
1t has been observed, however, that
nearly all the rocky strata in Wes-
tern New York abound with the re-
mains ~ animals that once existed;
and which could live buried deep IN
the earth no more :han a horse or a
COW could live there. When alive
thew were at the surface of the groud,
though that surface was probably at
the bottom of the sea; but certainly
thew never lived with those rocks on
their heads; and if we may judge
from the plainest analogy, every one
of those powders, lies directly over
the remains of some animal.
It will be safe to conclude, there
fore, that there was atime when these
rocks were not in their present posi-.
tons: and the question may proper
" recur, how did they get there? In
a late lecture on Geology, delivered
by Professor SiIliman in the city OF
