The CHAIN GANG.-We notice that great
number of D. D.'s are now, temporarily, asso-
ciated with the chain-gang movement in San
Francisco. The Sun condemns '.the existence
of such an infamous institution" and seems to
think, with the poet, that
If early habs-those false links which bind,
AT times, the loftiest to the meanest mind"
are to be continued in such relation, before the
public gaze, the sooner the evil is remedied the
better. Let not the watery rays of the Sun il
Illuminate, exclusively, the aristocracy" of the
chaln-gang it is too bad to force bit-whisky
and champagne into such close fellowship-the
casks to work side-by-side. By all means, Mr..
Editor keep up the respectfully of the kid
gloved never-sweats "a chain-gang is the
proper place for the poor bank-swindled laborer,
who browns his bitter grief in rectifcd Monon-
gahela, but it will not answer for the hummer
blue-fy of lunch -table-professiona habits.

LAvA-During the week several fine speci-
mems of petrifed wood, leaves, ferns, &C., firmly
embedded in lava, have been left at our Of
fee. Mr.. Nelson 7. Norcross presented us the
finest sample taken from the bed of the ditch
now being dug by Messrs. Wyllie, Treat & Co.
The impression of oak leaves imbedded in the
lava is perceptble every few inches. The form
and figure of the leaf is true as life itself in its
natural display
AS great deal of interest is manifested in
regard to this lava,-many seeming to think
that it was not lava, but some other substance of
an alkali-liquid nature existing in the subter-
ranean chambers Of the earth, which CONCEALED
or was reduced to hard substance by evapor-
ation on its exposure to air. Comstock in his
Introduction to mineralogy thus describes tho
true lava:
LAvA-E1tcrndl Characters = Colours vel
lowish, or greenish gray, grayish black, or
greenish black, sometimes sulphur yellow, and
often spotted with red occurs massive with
internal marks of fusion, being vascular, or
porous, the vesicles being empty; fracture
more or less conchoidal, or fbrous; lustre glist-
enlng OF SnlnlnS opahe, OF IeeDly translucent
on the edges also compact, with dull earthly
fracture, and often containing chrystals of fell
spar, leucite, horneblende, &C.; brittle often
attracts the magnet.
Chemical characters.-Fusible into dark
coloured glass.
Composition Compact Laval Slick Is; alu-
mine 10; lime 10; soda 4; iron IA water L.
Philips.
Distinctive chdrdcters-I.ava is heavier than
pumce, and does not possess its fibrous aspect
nor its silky lustre
1t is found in volcanic countries only, and is
the product of the action of volcanic fire on
earthly minerals.
Localities.-Etna Vesuyius, Hecla, and most
other volcanoes.
Werner and Jameson notice two kinds of
lava, Stag lara, and foam lara. Hauy enumer-
ates six species, and Karsten nine. Many mine
ralogists, however believe that some substances
formerly included among the lavas, are not vol
canic products and consequently not true lavas
Lava frequently includes crystals and other
substances which are easily fusible, but which
in appearance have not been altered by the fire;
such are felspar and horneblende. On this ac-
count some mneralogists have doubted its vol
canic origin.
The above description is intended to embrace
only such substances as are undoubted lavas.
