T,v,Ts oF THE SEA IN ANCIENT IIMES.-
Geo!ogists have ascertained the remarkable
fact that in earlier ages the ocean covered
much larger surface than it doesat present;
hut the line OF the old sea coastls not 50 easy
70 ascertain. NJ Marcel de Series, wei
known geolog!st, points out clrcuh' stance
which certainly appears, 10 many CASTS ~
afford a satisfactory clue to the mystery
It is we'll known that there are certain Klhos
of molIuses which perforate rocks IN every
1ir.ciion. and with such assiduty as 60 make
them in the end fall to pieces VI. Marcel de
Series, while engaged near the hamlet OF ot.
Apolis in the neighborhoud ct PeZenas,
where the necomian formation is we'll devel-
oped, in examining the effects of these zorro
sions, remarked certain perforatlcns, resem-
bling the impressions of thimbles, On the
cretaceous rocks which are situated on the
southern side of the mountain RAINING par
aiel to the Mediterranean. On the North
ern side, which is turned away from the sea,
no such marks are to be seen. NOW cohSlu-
er that these peri orations are unquestiona-
Div the work of the mollases in question,
and that these creatures chiefly lnhablt the
coasts. NJ Marcel de Series arrives at the
very allowable conclusion that the sea for
lnerly reached to the level Of those perlora-
tons. In continuing his researches, he has
been enabled to ascertain by an analogous
line uf argument, that the sea formerly reach
