uuASo DIscovERIEs-Some time ago, we published
an account OF q company in this city which had
cna.sered a vessel to proceed to certain islands in the
racine ocean, lying a few days sail to the south and
west OF the Sandwich Islands, in search of puano
Inc Islands have been found and the extent OF the
guano Is ascertained to be enormous. Annexed is an
extract from a letter on the subject, just received
mere from the captain of the schooner, who had gone
10 prospect the islands, and who has brought samples
OF the guano. tie is now at Port Oxford, taking in q
cargo OF lumber for this port, and when he returns
to San Francisco, further information will be received
from INN as to the guano discoveries. He saws:
On BoeRD OF THE sPALEsrrNE,"
Port Oxford, April Is, 1859 O'Clock, P. M.
DEAR SIN We have just arrived here for a cargo
OF lumber, and as the steamer from Portland is hour
" expected to call in for the mail, I have only time
to inform you that we have found puano on the
Islands we visited. We only, however, examined
one place particularly. The quantity is not less than
one and a half millions tons. As for the QUALITY.
that must be determined by a chemical analysis: and
l have reason to believe that IL is equally as good as
that found upon Jarvis Island, which is worth in
New York, forty or fifty dollors per ton.
We clip the above from a San Francisco paper.

cleared from this port in the latter part of February,
for ISLANDS in the Pacific the true destination
being kept secret at the time. 1t WITS the intention
OF the captain to have touched here on his return, to
report his discoveries, and procure a freight for San
Francisco; but finding his most ~sanguine anticipa-
tons more than realized in the extent and value of
the guano islands, he probably deemed it prudent to
return as speedily as possible, and SO steered a
straight track for the coast.

IHE dUANo RADE-Commodor Mervine must feel
but little battered by the following letter. subscribed
Dy some OF the most experienced shipmasters of New
BEDFORD. When he further reflects that by his SUPER
ncial examination and unSounded report he has re-
tarded the progress of a great enterprise, and affected
two or three years crops in our country, such rehec-
tion cannot be without some twangs of remorse =
NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Feb. 1858.
TO the Hon. Secretary of the Navy, Washington,
u. MT The undersigned American shipmas-
tiers beg leave most respectfully to state that they have
c1u.sed In the vicinity of Jarvis and Bakers Islands,
between l4Oo west and 1902 east, near the equator
trades are seldom if ever visited with gales that
Jarvis and Bakers Islands with as much safety as in
any other sea; that most of the undersigned have
landed on one or both of said islands-more ~particu-
lariy, however, on Bakers, that being the Post Office
depot for our whaling feet; that the idea of difficulty
IN landing upon said islands, or in taking anything
therefrom, has never entered our minds.
That the report of Commodore VIM. Mervine, rep
~resenting these islands as unsafe places to land upon,
and Commander Chas. H. Davis confirmatory letter,
published in Honolulu, stating that Commodore Mer-
vine's conclusions are approved, are in direct conflict
with our experience and recommendations
We deem it a duty which we owe to ourselves and
to the interests of commerce, to state that we should
not anticipate half the difficulty in obtaining a cargo
OF guano from either one of those islands that we have
often experienced in taking an old and ugly whale.

TIE CHANGE OF LEvEL IN THE LAKES Sc
Dewey, LII D., Of the University of Rochester,
states that Lake Ontario is seven inches higher
than in October, 1857, when it was the highest
that had been known for eleven years. He says
there is no regular time Of the rise and fall in
the lakes-no periodical changes of five, seven or
eleven years. Lake Ontario is high or low soon
after the same fact in Lake Erie, and the huctua-
tons are about equal, they are in Lake Mich
igan. The difference In the level is very rarely
four feet in year, when the waters are at rest.
The conclusion he arrives at, after eleven years.
observation of the lakes, and of meteorological
conditions In their vicinity, is, that the uctua-
tions Of their level depend the quantity Of the
water poured into the lakes by all the streams
which carry of the rain and the melted snow
and upon the amount Of evaporation.
