IRoN IN LIBERIA. native iron
found in Liberia, and which has excited
so much interest among scientific men,
is said to present only very minute crys-
talino grains. which have not been bro
ken or blended Their color is lighter
gray than that of any hammered iron !;
they are without much ustre, resembling
iron which has been aggregated by elect
rcal deposition The mass is tough, and
when fragment is broken, repeated,
bending and doubling is required, and
the fracture is hackly. The texture is
not uniform some parts are less com
Pact than othcf portions, rendering the
specific gravity of the mass less than
that of other iron. This inequality is
due in part to the presence, 10 the mass,
of crystalline quartz, magnetic oxyd of
iron, and zeolito mineral having a soda
basis in part-proving that the iron has
never been melted artifcally, There are
no other metals present, and the absence
of carbon proves it net to be Of artificial
formation.

An Incident.

It was the usual time for the arrival
of the New York and Boston train, and
a crowd as is always tho case, were gath.

little circle of some half dozen Buchau-

something of bitterness and rancor in

"Humph that demonstrates the strength

The talk continued louder and every
sentence on'the part of Buchanan closed
with challenge to risk thousand. Jus,
as the Buchanan mans triumph seemed

were obliged to change, but while they
were hocking across the platform, atten-
