-ICEBERGs.

Very few sights in human nature arc
more imposing than that of the huge
solitary iceberg, as, regardless alike
of wind and tide it steers its course
on the face ofthe deep far away from
the land Like one of the front giants
Of Scandinavian mythology, it issues
from the portals Of the North, armed
with great blocks of stone. Proudly
lit sails on. The waves that dash in
and foam against its sides, shake moi
the strength OF its crystal walls, MOI
|tarnish the sheen of its emerald caves
Sleet and snow storm and tempest

and from the green depths of "Caverns
measureless to man."
The visible portion of an iceberg
is only about one-ninth of the whole
mass; 80 that if one be seen 100 fee,
high, the lowest point may perhaps be
away down 700 feet below the waves.
Now it is easy 10 see that such a NOV,
ing island will often CRATE across the
summit and along the sides of the
submarine hills; and when the lower
part of the berg..is roughened over with
earth and stones, the surface of the
rock over which it passes will be torn
up and dispersed or smoothed and
straited, while the boulders embedded
in the ice will be straited in turn.-
But some icebergs have been seen
rising 400 feet over the sea, and these
if their submarine portions sank to
their maximum depth, must have
reached the enormous total height OF
5000 feet. By such mass, any rock
or mountain top existing below the
surface of the ocean, would be polish
ed and grooved; and succeeding bergs
depositing mud and boulders upon it,
this smooth surface might be covered
up, and suffer no change till the ocean
bed should be slowly upheaved to the
light of day. ..' I'D -.s4
In this way submarine rock sur.
faces at all depths, from the coast
line, down to two hundred or three
hundred thousand feet, may be scratch

THE NEW FRENCH CANNON.

The new cannons, which have just
been substituted for the old material
in the French Army, are all rided.-
The calibers are but two-caliber of
1c for siege, caliber of four for field
guns. The solid ball has been sup
pressed; all projectile's are hollow.
They strike as solid ball and burst
like shells. Their shape is conical
they are provided with lead projections
which enter the grooves inside the
cannon and insure great precision in
firing. The cannon of IL tells more
against Notifications than the enor-
nous caliber tried in England. They
have been tried as follows Two simi.

placed before the other at about doub.
le that distance-namely, u yards.
It required half the number of shots
from the new cannon to make as wide
a breach as was made by the old one.
The balls entered the masonry 80 in.
ches deep, and then exploded throw
ing of large cones. The charge Of
the new cannon was two pounds, ten
ounces of powder; the charge Of the
old one was eighteen pounds. The
superiority of the field piece was still
more marked; it. weighs less thar
600 pounds, and six men can carry il
on their shoulders through a difficult
defile. 1t requires only one pound O.
