TnG APPEARANCES or the MOONS sUerAcg -
AT one Of the late meetings Of the Association oI
Geoogisls in New York, JAMES DANA read an
exceedingly interesting paper on the appearances
on the surface Of tho moon The rrihuac gives
synopsis Of his remarks, which were to the fol-
lowing effect:
The surface Of the Moon has been infinitely
studied in physical point oryiow aud already many
interesting geological discoveries have been made
1903 lunar lights have been measured by Beer and
Nader. Drawings of several of these mountains
were exhibited by Mr. Dana One important sub.
ject 10 regard to the Moon yet remains unexplained
viz the Immense magnitude OF It's eroters One
of them has been asceFtancd to be l5) or 300 miles
in diameter, and $4,000 feet deep. The crater
Bailey is l40 l.S statute miles in diameter. u was
stated in the report that two,thirds Of MI the lunar
hemisphere in view-compoSng its Southern quar-.
ter--are covered with volcanic mounians The
Names heights, depths and peculartes Of the var.
ious cralers anh mountains Of the moon were par.
ticularized in the papers Of Mr. Dina, and numer-
ows drawings-plans Of these elevations aud the
inside Of their craiers-were shown. The walls of
the craters are frequently so regular as to appear
almost artificial. One very singular circumstances
observable in them is, that the sides appear more
illuminated, more brilliant, thanthe bottoms May
no, this be accounted for by the existence of a
nebuous light, apparently in the lower porlionl
The absence Of water in the Moon and the prin-
cipa volcanoes elsewhere observed, were then
treated Of after which taken up the subjects
Of the Geology Of the volcanic regnns, aud the
distribution Of land aud water on our globe as
compared with the Moon. In the ocean all the
islands, except the corals, OF an igneous forua-
ton.
When Mr. Dana closed. Prof Silllman inquired
how Mr. d. would account for the volcanic action
of the Noon withou, the agency Of water TO pro.
duce the yapors always accompanying volcano ,
To which Mr. Dana replied that it was not abso-
lu:ely decided that there is no water in the Moon
but that none had yet been perceived. Before he
had time to answer Prof. Slman's special inter
rogation, the President, Dr. Jackson, remarked
that the presence of chlorine in the moon was moi
mprobable-as this substance had been found il
the meteroic siones-and might not this be the
cause of vapors and lunar volcanoes
