iCpThe lecture by Professor Chose was one
Of the most interesting and instructive Of the
eosfse be iors The Lyceu,n. The theory ol
volcanic erpptions aad earthquakes. together
with description Of their most s,riking phs.
nomena. formed the subject Of tho lecture
And though subject somewhat dlficul, to be
presented In popular form without departing
Gom the precise technicaliies necessarily used
in natural science. It was yet 90 treated as TO
be easily comprehended by I'll. The difIeren,
suggestions sn this subject sntertsined by Ge-
ologists Oi dAeront peri~ds were briefly stated.
together with the objsotions that h,vs been
raised 10 each successive hypothesis. The
superstition Of the molten state OF the interior
OF the esr,h's su ubstance, and tho cons equent
immenss steam pressure az the pro- sctile force
Of streams Of lava, has seemed to account
most satisfactorily foe the phenomena observ-
cd. and hence has been msst commonly a.
doPtsd. Bet the learned PRO eessor suggested
some philosophical objections TO this. and pro-
sented the latest theory as tho most probable,
that these eruptions are the consequences OF the
fused slate ofthe earth IN particular regions
produced by the ooncentrstive force Of tha
electrical fluid at certain focal points. How.
ever true this theory may be proved to be,
IN an advanced state Of geological science. it
seems very ingenious a. it 10 novel
no style Of the lecture was characterized by
the clearness and force Of q mind sccustom-
I'd 10 tho more difficult snd intricate invest.
cations Of natural end chemical philosophy.
While tho moral sentiments so happily OK.
pressed in the closing passages OF the lecture
we're worthy Of christian philosopher adj
dressing an enlightened audience.

MELANCHOLY AFFAIR.

A melancholy accident occurred a
few days since in Buffalo Gap, by which
one Of our county men lost his life
A hunting party, composed of Abra-
ham Vance and David Swaftz, of this
county, and Levi Swa'rtz, residing near
The Gap, it appears, had gone INTO the
Gap hunting deer on Monday last
Ere they had gone far into the noun
'tains, Levi Swartk in front, David in
the middle, and Vance in the rear. Le-
vi thinking he heard a deer, jerked his
gun from his shoulder, and in the in
slant of bringing it down, it went off,
the ball passing IN few inches Of Da-
vid Swaltz, striking Vance in the right
arm between the elbow and shoulder,
and lodging in his left breast, killing
him instantly.
1t is truly a melancholy occurrence,
sand We deeply lament it. Levi Swartz,
we believe, was brother-in law to Mr..
Notwithstanding Republican.

OBITUARY

Died of liberated sore throat, at the
re sdence of his fathe, in Harrisonburg,
on the Oath inst, in The 10Th year of
his age, JAMES MORRISON, son of Rev.
Henry and Mary S. Brown.
Ofthis amiable and exemplary youth,
nothing need be said further than a
pleasing memento to his afflicted pa
rents, and for the satisfaction of a nu-
merous acquaintance. Through his
whole life not one instance is remem-
bered his having used a profane ex-
preston, or told falsehood, and to
the difficulties into which youth are SO
ap, TO fall with their companions, he
was almost a stranger. Though most
of his days have been past in sorrow, it
is pleasing to know that he has always
been inclined 20 religion-that he come
to the last conflict professedly as with
out fear as to the future, reposing all
his hopes in the merits of a Saviour. -
A message by an Uncle to Cousin
which was written on slate { for ne
could not speak, may be considered
as one to his companions here. Tel
- he must pray, and try to be a
better boy. Ifhe should take sick and
die, to be prepared TO meet his God.-
Upon his poor parents the stroke has
allen with great severity. Of SIX love
Sly children only one remains: Bu
though the 'waters Of Mara are yer.
bitter" they bow with submissive res
igna,ion to the will of Heaven.
