 Hence. in short, we find that water, from the moment of it's evaporation is continually dissolving and carrying for> eign substances, which generally increase in number and variety till it reaches the ocean. The solvent power of this element depends much on it's temperature, as hot water withhold in solution much greater portion of some substances, than cold water. This is illustrated in the case ol thermal springs. The different temper atures of water, evidently depend pri> marily on it's fuidity, hence. on its ca pacity of free and universal movement.
 z Thescapscity of being drawn up in capillary tubes, is given to water, by it's auidi,y. Both in the organic and inor~ ganic worlds, this quality furnishes a motive power to water and enables it to enlarge in great degree its circuit of travel. ssrn
 The capacity of being easily decom- posed and recomposed and the feeble affinity holding it's clements together en- ables water to facilitate the production, the support and the decomposition of organic matter. .,.,. .,
 9 Water, inasmuch as it moves from place to place, is a carrier of it's own elements. oxygen and hydrogen hence the fact that it is composed of gases so extensively required in organic end inor. ganc changes enhances it's value as a carrier.
 10 The affinity of water for certain bodies enables it to enter them. to te carried with them, and at last to become disengaged and to carry portions of these bodies into the organism of plants. For instance. lime when slaked absorbs the water, which it eventually gives up to the soil on which it is placed.

A certain amount of opposition. says John Neal, : is great help to . man. Kites rise agcinat and not sOith the wind. Even head wind lis better than none. No man ever worked his passage any" where in dead calm. Let no man wax pale, therefore, because of opposition. Opposition is what he wants, and must have to be good for anything. Hardship is the native soil of manhood and self- reliance. He that cannot abide the storm without flinching or quailing. strips him. self in the sunshine, and lays down by the wayside. to be overlooked and for gotten. He who but braces himself to the struggle when the wind blows, gives up when they have done, and falls asleep in the stiffness that follows.'

FLYING SQUIRRELS.

Thc nyins squirrels never build their nests
sspf leaves on trees during summer, like the
,rue s,uirrels, .but con6ne themselves to a
hollow. or some natural cavity in the branch
Is or trunk. We have very frequently found
them nlabi;ing the caves and roofs OF nous
es. and we discovered considerable number
of them in the crevices of a rock in the VI
cinity Of the Red Sulphur Springs IN 'ir-
ginia.
they are grcgarious, living together IN
considerable communities, and do not object
10 the company of other and even quite Diff
ferent animals. An example, once noticed
IN taking down an old martin box, which had
been for great number Of years on the top
Of 4 venerable locust tree near my house, an"
: whic ID some eight or ten apartments AS
: the box fell to the ground, we were surprised
to see great numbers Of flying squirrels
.sGeecl,-owls, and leathcr-wrged bats run
ming from it. We caught several OF each,
and one of the flying squirrels was kept as
pet in cage for six months The various
apartments o. the box were stored with hick-
DRY nuts, chestnuts, acorns, and corn 'n'en-
de,f for the winter supply Of food There
must have been as many as twenty hylnG
souirrcls in the box, as many bats, and we
know there were six scrccch-Owls. The ere
vices of the house were always inhabited b!
the squirrels. The docility OF the one we
kept as a ret was remarkable; although he
was never lively and playful in the daytime,
he would permit himself to be handled and
spread out at the pleasure OF any one. We
frequently took him from the cage, laid him
on the table or on one hand, and exposed the
extension of his skin, S:notlIcd his fur. put
him in our pocket or bosom, etc, he pretend
iny all the time to be asleep.
1t was common occurrence that squirrels
flew into the house on summers evening
when the windows were open. and at such
times WE caush, them. They were always
perfectly harmless. Although | frequently
seized them in my hard. was never bitten.
We caught so many Of them one season, that !
the Young girls borrcd their winter rapc>
with their tails whch are very pretty. 1t was
a curious circumstance that the flying SPUR /
rcls never descended to the lower parts Of (
The house, and we never knew of any rats in
The upper rooms. Whether the squirrels or
he rats were the rrpu!>ive agents, do not
tnow; certain it is they never inhabited the
over location in common.
During the first winter they were confined
o the room, boxes were placed in different
,arts of it, containing Indian meal, aroruS.
luts, Nr. As soon as it was dark they were
n the habit of hurryinS from one part of the
DOM to the other, and continued TO be full
f activity during the whole night. We had
u the room wheel, that had formerly been
ttachcd to the cage of northern grey SOUR
el. TO this they found an entrance, and
hey often continued during half the night
urning the wheel at times we saw the whole
,roup in it at once. This squirrel, we NAV
conclude, resorts to the wheel not from COM
,ulsion, but for pleasure. .iminlon.
