A FIELD OF CoRALs.--Corals arc
immensely various and exceedingly
beautiful. In the immediate vicinity
of Bermuda is a field of corals, some
twenty miles BY ten in extent, which
seen through water several feet deep
and perfectly transparent, presents
an object of great beauty and rich
ness. The prisoners at the English
establishment are frequently employ
cd to procure, by diving, specimens
OF coral from that cxhaustless field of
beauty and richness, which arc sent
to numerous cities and individuals
upon both continents, for ornaments
upon mantel-picces. In many places
coral rock is used as the only building
material. For forts it is probably
preferable to any other material. it
IS more difficult to shattcr by cannon
balls than other rock. Though no.
hard, it is tough. Coral is the car.

spirits can move table or other Or
ganic substances A spirit, without
possessing any of the grossncss of the
earthly form, is yet organized in its
principles and functions precisely as
we are in this life; and when it, q
spirit, desires to move q table, (by
way Of manifesting its nearncss,) it
concentrates its own magnetic and
powerful elements so rs to take hold,
as it we're, Of the magnetism of the
atmosphere. In like manner this at
mospherieal magnetism takes hold of
the electricity Of the air, and the lat
ter is then concentrated upon the ar
ticle which it is the spirits design to
move. Atmospheric magnetism and
electricity are, therefore, the merves
and muscle which spirits employ
when manifesting their presence to
the material senses o. believing, as
we'll as skeptical individuals. Hence

MANoRIAL TITLES.
Mr.. JOHNSON addressed the Senate In defense
of staying proceedings for the collection OF rents
on immortal leases till the question of title is

Mr.. MANN consended that no relief would be
granted to tenants. He thought the blu a contin-
uation Of thoIe measures which have been ripe
since the Anti-Rent agitation, which bold out a
promise aud hope without any real relief. The
bill was practical deception on the tenants.
The debate was continued by Mr. BABcocK, but
no question was taken.
The Senate determined 10 proceed TO the cleo

Peter Wendell, deceased. Adjourned.
