The following eloquent passages are from the
Physical Geography of the Sea" by Lieutenant
Maury:
The Bible frequently makes alluson to the laws
of nature, their operations and effects. But such
illusions are often so wrapped in the fold of the
peculiar and graceful drapery with which its Ian
guage is occasionally clothed, that the meaning,
though peeping out from its thin covering all the
while yet lives in sense concealed, until the
lights and revelations of science are thrown upon
it then it bursts out and strikes us with the more
force and beauty
AS our knowledge Of Nature and her laws has
increased, so has our understanding of many pas
sages in the Bible been improved. The Bible cali
ed the earth " the round world; :" yet for ages it
was the most damnable heresy for Christians to
say the world is round; and finally sailors crcum-
navgated the globe, proved the Bible to be right
and saved Christian of science from the stake.
And as for the general system of Atmospheric
circulation, which | have been so long endeavoring
to describe, the Bible tells it all in single sem
tence "The wind goeth towards the South and
turneth about into the North it whrleth about
continually, and the wind returneth again accord
ing to his circuits" Feel. i: 6.

TUBs rs. CLIPPERS. The Sun, in view of too
many compliments paid to clippers and their pas
sages nowadays, gets off the following in relation
to the = Ark" an old tub near jackson street slip
She was built in Newburyport, where tradition
says they used to build vessels by the mile and
saw them off to suit purchasers She belonged to
Caleb Cushing, the father of the present Attorney
General OF the United States, who resided in Bos-
ton, and manned his vessels according to the eco
nomical system of the merchants of that cradle of
liberty, aristocracy and notions.
Having SIX men and two boys, all told, which
was then considered sufficient for vessel capable
of carrying seven hundred tons of cargo she was
rugged after the received plan of the times, every
rope, spar and sblock being just thirty-three and
one-third per cent. larger than there was any oc-
casion Tor, for the voyage about to speak Of
She sailed for Liverpool with lot of spars, naval
stores, and some Spanish dollars She left port
with strong gale from the N. W., and had not
been to sea great length of time before it became
evident to all on board, that the wise men of the
East had been guilty of slight oversight in the
hanging of the rudder which, it was clear, had
been attached to the wrong end the stern possess
ing the greatest share of locomotion which was
manifested by its continued attempt to supersede
the bows in leading off the van-ward when going
before the wind: no efforts of two steersmen SEEM
ed to have any effect in correcting this unfortunate
propesity. But notwithstanding her stubbornness
in persisting to have her own way, she made the
shortest passage from Boston to Liverpool that was
ever known, and we believe never mas been eouaed
by sailing vessel to this day, she being but thr-
teen and a half days from the time she discharged
her Boston pilot until she let go her anchor in the
Mersey This upon her return, was looked upon
as something so far out of the natural course of
affairs that the captain received his discharge it
being believed that he aided by some power

A ScHooLMAsTER BOARDING ROUND" Extra
from the Journal of schoolmaster, published in
Vermont paper
Monday. Went to board at Mr.. BIS Had
baked goose for dinner. Supposed, from its size,
and the thickness of the skin with other venerable
Appearances to have been one of the first settlers
in Vermont. Made sligt impression on the pa
triarchs breast.
Supper-Cod goose and potatoes Family con-
ssting of the husband, guide wife, daughter Peggy,
four boys, Pompey the dog and the brace of cats.
Fire built in the square room about o'clock and
pile of wood lay by the fireplace Saw Peggy
scratch her fingers and couldn't take the hint
Felt squeamish about the stomach, and talked
about going to bed Peggy looked suen, and put
out the fire in the square room. Went to bed and
dreamed of having eaten quantity of stone wall.
Tuesday. Cold gander for breakfast, swamp
tea and some nut cake--the latter some consola-
ton.
Dinner---The legs &C. of the gander, done up
warm one nearly done up.
Supper---Tbe other leg &C. cold. Went to bed
as Peggy was carrying fire into the square room.
Dreamed was mudturtle, and got on my back
and could not get over again.
Wcdnesday Cold gander for breakfast Com
planned of sickness and could eat nothing
Dinner---Wings, &c, of the gander warmed up.
Did my best to destroy them, for fear they should
be left for supper did not succeed. Dreaded sup
per all the afternoon.
Supper-Hot johnny cakes. Felt relieved. Sup
posed had got clear of the gander and went to
bed for a good nights rest Disappointed
cold night and couldn't keep warm in bed; got up
and stopped the broken glass with coat and vest--
no use froze the tip of my nose before morning.
Thursday. Cold gander again. Felt very much
discouraged not to see the gander half gone, Wis
tied for dinner and supper, slept abroad and had
pleasant dreams
Friday. Breakfast abroad. Dinner at Mr. BIS
Cold gander and hot potatoes the latter very
good ate these and went to school somewhat con-
tented
Supper---Cold gander again and no potatoes,
bread heavy and dry. Had the headache and
couldn't eat. Peggy much concerned had fire
built in the square room, and thought she and |
had better sit there out of the noise. Went to bed
early. Peggy thought too much sleep bad for the
headache.
Saturday. Breakfast, cold gander and hot In
dian johnny -cakedid very wel---glad to come off
so well.
Dinner-Cold gander again. Didn't keep school
this afternoon. Weighed and found that | had lost
six pounds the last week! Grew alarmed Had
talk with Mr.. B., and concluded had boarded out
his share.

TREATIES WITH JAPAN. A recent article in the
Official Gazette of the Netherlands has created
some sensation in India. 1t appears to have
capped attention in Europe. 1t is we'll understood
that the treaties recently signed by the Japanese
government with the American and British COM
missoners are frauds. Trade is no more permitted
than before. No one is allowed to trade but the
Imperial agents, who again will sell ouly provis-
ions. All communication with the interior is pro-
hibited and, in fact, both nations are precisely
where they were. 1t Itappears from the Dutch state
ment that all these deccptons were suggested from
the Hague that Dutch official specially selected
sent to Japan, and that he has since acted as
kind of foreign secretary to the imperial govern
ment. These facts are indeed, admitted by the
King himself whose notes on the treaty have been
published and they appear to deserve, if not chas
tsement, at least attention. The Dutch in the East
are jealous in the extreme of Anglo-Saxon infu
ence, and by no means scrupulous in their endeav-
ors to undermine it. M. Dedels cool attempt, in
1852, to claim the sovereignty of Borneo for his
court is not yet forgotten. .--Liverpool Times
