AN INTERESTING PAPER.-M. Boussingault re-
Gently read to the French Academy of Sciences an
extremely interesting historic account of the dis
covery OF the nitrUgenous guanos of Chill and
Peru, and those of the islands of the Pacific. He
enters into great detail respecting the origin of the
guanos of Peru, formed of the excrements of sea
birds, designated by the generic name of gWanaches.
To explain the enormous accumuatons of guano
the islands, it suffices to admit that they were
frequented every night for six thousand years by
two hundred and sixty thousand birds--num bers
that are not exorbitant, considering the enormous
number of those fowl. In conclusion, NJ. Boussin-
gaut takes occasion to mention the services which
pure science renders to humanity, recalling that
it was the observations of geologist, Mr.. Buck
land, and the analysis of a chemist, NJ. Berthier,
which first called attention to these extremely
valuable deposits.

The New Orleans Picayune says there has not been

personal resentments and quarrels, and perhaps,
also, Fate, too busy with the wholesale disposal of
