Decrease of Water ON the Globe.

AT late meeting of the British Associ-
alton, paper was read "On the General
and Gradual DeSiccation of the Earth and
Atmosphere" The writer drew attention
to the fact that those who had travelled in
continental lands, especially in or near the
tropics, had been forced to reflect on the
changes of climate that appeared to have
occurred. There were parched and barren
lands, dry river-channels, and waterless
lakes, and not infiequently traces Of ancient
human habitations, where large populations
had teen supported, but where all was des-
olate, dry, and barren.
After quoting largely from the works Of
various travellers and writers, (among the
latest of whom was DR.. Livingstone,) ard
giving interesting descriptions of dried-up
rivers and dessolate tracts Of country in
Australia, Africa Mexico, and Peru, which
had formerly been inhabited by man, the
writer concluded there was gradual soli,l-
flying of the aqueous vapors, and conse-
quently OF water, on the face of this terres-
trial world, which he inferred was approach
ing a state in which it will be impossible
for man TO continue an inhabitamt. Yet.
he added, We should feel satisfied with the
prospect that the term of our occupation is
not ye, half expired. Races proceeded US
in the chain of existence, and there was no
reason to suppose that others would not
follow. Indeed, some of those that are dcs-
tined 10 succeed, seem to be always in ex-
istence, and have their home in the icy sea,
where they enjoy climate that exceeds
mars endurance. Various considerations
lead to the conclusion that the fitness of the
earth Tor man may extend 20 a period much
longer than that in which it has been occu-
pied by him nor will that term end till af-
ter the Polar bear, The warlrus, and Tie
narwal have become inhabitants Of the trop-
les.

RAYMOND, April, 1859.
Read Good Books.

Look at the influence on the mind, of
books of a worse character see how they
taint and pollute il A respectable lady,
in fits of arrangement, sang some indelicate
songs. When told of it afterwards, when
when less than four years old. What,
then, would be the impression that an i'm
pure volume would make upon the young
and tender mind? viii it be one easily
eradicated? Will it not rather remain as
if written with pen of iron upon the suS-
ceptible heart, and exert its polluting in
fluencc TO a greater or less extent through
life? Many very pious people have had
sore trial in contending with the defling
influence occa>ioned by reading improper
books in former years.
BY reading books of good character,
such as exert salutary and beniticial in
fuence, the ground will be occupied, and
there will be no room for tie poison and
trash which surteit and kill. Give child
ren good books, written in lively and in
teresting manner, and they will be so taken
up with them as to have no desire for un-
wholesome reading. The ground will be
occupied with something better. There is
no room for the worse. Fill measure
with wheat, and there is no room for chaff.
The reading of good books exerts con-
versative influence in after life. Not only
is the ground preoccupied and the young
kept from the baneful effects of improper
re ,ding while they are young, but the in
fuence in the whole course of life will be
conservative. In many hours Of fearful
temptation. the truths which were instil'.d
into the mind by early reading have proved
life preserver 10 the struggler. Here is
man exposed, fron the iorce of circum-
stances, to very severe temptation, and is
just about to yiell. but at this moment he
remembers the history of a man similarly
placed. which he read about in a good book
when a child. and that. and that only, ena-
bles him 10 resist and finally gain the con-
quest over the temptation.
Reading of good books is the means of
spiritual good, in many cases. Can any
one doubt that Buns ans inimiabie work
has made impressions upon the tender mind
OF childhood which were never worn off,
and which resulted in sincere, lasting con-
version to God? The great William Will
berforee said, Il had rather 90 to render
my account at the last day, carrying off
with me the little narrative of The Shep-
herd of Salisbury Plain than bearing the
load of the volumes of Scott, full as they
are of genius" Why? Because The little
narrative was the means of the salvation of
souls - but SCOTS novels never were.
Many now eminent in The religious world
affirmed that their first serious con, lotions
arose from reading good books lRateh.

Gamblers are the worst of misers they
are wretchedly miserable until they secure
what belongs to others, while they who are
usually denominated msers, are willing TO
give honest toll or its equivalent for what
they receive. The example given to youth
by men Of maturity is much stronger than
that Of one young person to another. We
all teach our children TO reverence age and
gray hairs, but it would be much wiser to
teach them veneration exclusively for those
who act virtuously and honorably. The
laws OF society are SO strict with regard to
women who game, drink, or are addicted to
Other vices, that they are banished from the
society Of all good people, abhorred, yea
loathed. 1t is not a matter of complaint, it
is right and proper that it should be thus !;

regretted that these laws are not as strin.

Every one must know the misery, disgrace,
and, too often, crime, which men bring to
themselves and their innocent wives and
children by indulging in this vice. They
must share the fate of the husband and ia

now imnured in dungeons for crimes, can
trace their first step to ruin and disgrace to
