THE CORAL REEFS OF FLORIDA.

At the last meeting Of the Boston Natural
Historical Society, Professor Agassis gave On
account of bis recent visit to the reefs Of
Florida, and his explanation Of coraline
growths. He estimates the rate Of coral
growth to be only few inches in century;
tenth or twelfth part less than has been
hitherto supposed, and supposing the reef
rises from depth Of twelve fathoms. hs
would calculate its age upon its arrival st the
surface of the water to DO about twenty i've
thousand years, and the total age Of the four
distinct concentric reefs Of the southern eI.
tremity Of the peninsula to be one hundred
thousand gears. Professor William B. Ro'
gers said that the physical conditions could
not have differed much in that region hum
dred thousand years ago from what they now
are, and consequently that such calculation
could reasonably be made upon the data &C
cumulated by Professor Agassiz. DR.. ID. I.
Weylsnd called attention to fact observed
by him while in Hayti, which would seem TO
involve more rapid growth Of some kind OF
corsls than is generally assumed. Hs there
noticed branches Of a species of msdrepore
from three to FIVE inches above the surface OF
the water. WHICH must have grown during the
short winter Of three months when the water
is high Boston Traveller.

Clasp me fondly, treat me kindly
AS lilly on the bosom
or lake reclines its blossom,
On my trusting heart recline;
Press your rosy lips to mine;
From your brown and waving tresses
Shake whole clouds Of tendernesses-
Kiss me madly, kiss me blindly--
Do not stop TO droop or blush
But 90 il with perfect rush!
Mine you should be, mine you could be,
Fairest thou OF female creatures,
None in eyes and hair can beat yours.
Cupid laughing over trips
The Norma Polka on your lips,
Where, antique like, grace reposes
Smothered half among the roses.
Dearest, mile you said you would be-
Say not so, with fstering tongue,
But go il, dearest while you're young!

"John Palfreyman, who is buried here,
Was aged tour. and.twenty year.
And near this place his mother lies;
Likewise his father, when he dies"
This superiluousness sometimes extends even TO
manifest ialsehood, as in Llanymynech church
