Artesisn Wells,

The SOURCE OF THE WATER.-Various
conjectures have been made as to the
source of the water which comes from
the Artesian wells. It was long believed
that the water of the sea must necessarily
penetrate, by infltration, into the interi-
or OF the continent, and at length from
large bodies of subterranean waters.
which, except for capillary influences,
would not rise above the general level of
the ocean. Another opinion was that the
subterraneous water, from which the
sources OF rivers and springs are supplied,
Is the product of the condensation of
aqueous yapors ascending from the interi-
or parts of the earth, in consequence of
the genial heat. But these hypotheses are
purely visionary. The simplest and most
natural explanation is, that the water of
ordinary wells, of Artesiaa fountains and
rivers, is supplied by the rains which fall
on the surface at higher elevation, and
which penetrate through the pores and
fssures of the ground till they meet with
some impermeable stratum, or are collect
ed In sabterranean reservoirs. 1t has been
objected that springs are sometimes situ-
ated on or near the SUBMITS of noun
tains, which could not be supplied in this
way; but on an attentive examination oi
all the circumstances, that is to say, on
measuring accurately the extent of sur
face at a greater elevation than the spring
and comparing it with the quantity of rain
that falls annually in the same climate
it has been found, in every instance, that
the aqueous deposition from the atmos-
phere greatly exceeds the supply from
the spring. 1t is computed that not more
than third part of the rain which falls
IN tae valley of the Seine is conveyed tc
the sea by the river.-Er.

them a government which they have re-
jected by vote of four to one, the whole
country will be satisfied, and Kansas will
quietly settle her OWE affairs without the
least difficulty and without any danger to
the Confederacy. The Southern States
which are supposed to have deep inter-
est in the matter, will be saved from the
supreme folly of standing up in defence
of so wicked and dishonest continuance
as the Lecompton Constitution. The
moral power of their position will not be
weakened BY vain and useless defence
of wrong, when it is perfectly certain they
viii gain nothing even by success in the
present attempt.
The extra session of the Kansas Legis-
lature has done good, also, by giving
means TO expose and punish the mon
strous frauds which have been perpetrated,
and doubtless, also, by preventing others
which would have been attempted. It
has driven the guilty miscreants engaged
in them to become fugitives from justice,
and has rendered it impossible for the
peace of the Territory hereafter to be en-
dangered by similar occurrences.
