Spanish Bonrbons, he states his decided
preference 10 be the ri ante Don Fernando.
II presenting various reasons for his
choice, lie says a
THE very fact, indeed, that the nffaante
Don Fernando,is still unmarried, might
be most advantageous to Mexico, III that,
when upon the throne, ii would DO most
easy for him TO contFuct an aIlinnce with
any one of the most powerful reigning
Houses, thus finding IN the union Of the
interestsof botlfa considerable augmenta-
ton Of force to secure the consolidation
and prosperity Of the new Mexican az.
nasty
But il II should be found impossible to
obtain the assent of the Powers to the
candidatnre Of Don Fernando, lie had OBJ
tained assurances at Vienna that Austria
would furnish an Archduke q proposition
that had obtained s'tthe most complete
appreciation Of the British Government
ID conclusion, anticipating TINT be might
BE superseded IN bis secret mission, he
thus speakssof bis own qualifications;
The negotiation pending IN Europe Is
delicate and most important. The con-
duct Of il, then, on the part Of the Next
can agents, demands not only skill and
dexterity, il demands, In addition, pro-
found political convictions of q ccrtain
character, unconqnerable zeal, and know
ledge of the, nhtecedents Of the question,
because 1t is not new. Ability and zeal
III the discussion Of subjects already con-
sidered do not supply the knowledge Of
what has already been done. 1t Is no
presumption on my part TO assure you
that no Mexican possesses this as fully Us
myself, nor is 1t boosting for me TO say
that this knowledge Of the antecedents Of
the business, and Of the persons with
whom i have already discussed ii, would
facilitate its prompt and favorable ter
Inination, snpposing good will on the part
ofthose who must cooperate iii the reali-
zation of our views: my only desire being,
at the termination Of the question, to re.
turn 10 the obscurity Of private life, With
the immense satisfaction Of hasing crowned
with my hand the edifce whose fonnda-
tons il was my fortune TO lay eighteen

Then let your homes be provided with

wisdom. Have these always on hand and
happiness win be with you. Do not drink
anything Intoxicating, eat moderately, so
about business after breakfast, lounge a
little after dinner, chat after tea, and kiss
after quarreling. Then all the Joy, the
peace, aud bliss the earth can afford shall
be yours until the grave closes over you,

q lecture recently in New York, before
the Kane Monument Association, in ex-
PLANTATION OF his new theory concerning
the physical structure Of the earth. He
detailed at length the discoveries which
led 70 the present state Of scientific know

and mentioned many curious features Of
the earth's surface, which were now ex-
planned for the first time by o single law,
His theory appears briefly to be as fol-
loves Is. 81. S. :::s Il s;-
There was q time when the land Of the
earth was completely covered by the
ocean. There were then but astronomical
causes to disturb the surface of the sea;
but the ocean currents must hare existed
then, for the same reason that they exist
now. The ocean then constituted six
equal circuits, symetrically arranged
three In each hemisphere. The cause Of
tho elevation OF the land was the sinking
Of the bed Of the sen within each Of these
circuits. The liquid lava that was be
meath the crust Of the earth was crowded
Up around these circuits, and formed three
polar continents in each hemisphere, beside,
three tropical continents. If these six cir
eai.sor oceanic basins had sunk equally, th.
continents would have risen equally, ant
Tho land In one hemisphere would be tht
same In quantity and in form as in thu
other. The lands did actually begin X
