Lieutenant Maury, in recent lecture, argu-
ed in proof of the open Polarsea. discovered by
the lamented doctor Kane. Reason and every
well established theory of the tides and ocean
currents confirmed by land, and the north pole
must be surrounded by water. However, the
waters of the two oceans are the same, though
there are many more rivers running into the
Atlantic than the Pacific, and there must be
communication between them. Besides, there
are every where in this ocean currents, counter
currents and under currents, all setting north
ward, and proving the necessity Of Polar sea.

We were present, on the 9th instant at the
disinterment of the remains of Mrs. Mary Jane
Tompkns, first consort of honorable P. W.
Tompkins, former member of congress for this
district, and sister ofex governor Helm, OF Ken
lucky. She had been inferred II years on the
18th instant, enclosed in zinc coffin filed with
alcohol, which was enclosed in a wooden cof-
lin, and the top of the zinc one was somewhat
decayed, but the corpse itself was in perfect
state Of preservation, features natural, and hair
as flexible as in life. The object Of the disn-
terment was the removal of the remains from
private lot to one in the public cemetery, as
the former might, in the course Of years, pass
into the hands of strangers. Among the af-
fecting incidents of the interesting occasion.
was the presence of the only daughter of the
deceased, who was but child at the time Of
the death Of the deceased, and who now finds
protection and shelter in the family, who have
so long watched and guarded the ashes OF her
deceased mother, and who have just given to
those ashes more secure and permanentresting
place, where the flowers which affection may
plant can grow and blossom without fear Of be-
ing bruised BY profane feet. [Vieksburg Sentinel.

EanaWha River improvement

WePu5lish IN to-day's paper various
resolutions. passed by the James River
and KsnaWha Company. respecting the
Improvement oil the Kanawha river; and
also acts Of the Legislature Of Virginia,
passed last session. whereby all the tolls
now due, and all 70 be collected. on Kan
awha river, are TO be appropriated, er-
elusively, to the improvement Of the nav.
igation Of this river. The amount Of
tolls now collected is Gbout $4,000 per
anuum, which sum will pay the interest
at 6 per cent. on ss5o, 900; but as the
improvement goes on, the tolls will rap
idly increase, for at present the tolls are
derived from the shipping Of salt chiefly.
With.the river improved, coal interests
and Kanapha trade generally, will rapid
ly grow into magnitude. and thus, in a
few years, double the present tolls col
lected on the river. Any one at all ac-
quainted with the natural resources Of
Kanawha Valley and the country tributa--
~ thereto, can easily see that the bonds
issued for the improvement Of Kanawha
riyer.if issued and paid in accordance
with the resolutions Of the ], r. and K.
Company. must prove good and safe
invsstmsnt; and furthermore, all acquaint-
ed with Kanawha resources, know that
The improvement Of our river will do
more than every thing else combined in
developing the great natural wealth Of
this section Of the Old Dominion.
With these facts before our people, it
is much hoped thatall will lend a helping
hand towards the vigorous prosecution
and completion of the Kanawha river
improvement; and for this purpose, q
public meeting will be held at the court
house on Saturday evening next. 18th
March. At which time and place 1t is
desired that our citizens generally will
attend.
Messrs. Mason q Co, and B. J. Jer-
dan q CO., Of Eastern Virginia, contrac-
tors for the improvement Of the river, are
now on = visit 70 our county, making ar.
rangements preparatory 70 the commence
mentof the work. We understand the
contractors have agreed 10 take in pay
ment for their work one half cash and
the other half in the company's bonds,
and that various individuals and coal
companies have literally subscribed to.
wards this improvement. But for all,
there i not yet sufficient Of the bond,
taken and paid for 70 secure the com.
mencement Of the work BY the contrac,
ltors. And considering the great benefit,
TO our salt-makers. to our coal men. to oul
farmers, to our merchants, 70 our bust.
ness men generally, and to alllthe varied
inisrestsof our valley. We hope that the
citizens Of Kanauha. and ell other indi-
viduals. viii give thissubject that atten-
itiou which it importapcs demands and
win. on Saturday next. go 70 the cour,
house determined to take hold. and give
encouragement to this great enterprise.
