re- We learn from the Selma (Ala.)
Reporter, that the stream of water from an
artesian well in that city has been turned
upon large wheel at the Central Ware
house to draw up the freight car fom the
river to the top Of the bluff. The power
was sufficient to draw up the loaded car,
and the Reporter anticipates that the pro-
pretors will find the experiment entirely
successful. This enterprise of going down
five or six hundred feet into smother earth
to tap and bring up one Of her natural ele-
nenls wlierewith TO bring machinery, is a
striking Instance Of the power of human
genius. There is well ut Cshawba which
discharges still larger volume of water,
and it WAS at one time intended to operate
factory 10y its stream, but we believe that
it has not yet been applied to that purpose.

The author is evidently careful obser-
vcr and profound thinker, and has pre-
sented us with vast amount of informa-
ton, derived both from man and the infe
ror animals. He has aimed to be useful
by pointing out how bodily deformities and
mental inirmites may be forestalled, and
how marriage among blood relations tends
to the degeneracy of the offspring. He also
shows how by carefully assorted marriages
the means Of improving general organiza-
tion and beauty Of countenance, as well as
mental and hysical vigor, are, in a great
degree, under the control of man. Altho
