saItuess of the Sea as Afectihs
NaVigatiOn.

Surprise has been expressed thas yes
sells going to Sabastapool take smaller
cargo than if they were only going 70
ConstantinOple, or that they diminish
their cargo in the latter port before en-
tering the Black sea. The reason Is tnls'
the density of water of different seas Il
more or less considerable, and the yes
sells sailing in them sink more or less, ae-
cordinp to their density. The density
.rises from the quantity of salt contained
in the water; and consequently, the salt
er the sea is, the less vessel sinks In 1t.
As. too. the more sail vessel carries,
the deeper she penetrates-the water, 1t
follows that the more salt the water the
greater the quantity of sail that can be
carried. Now, as the Black sea Is SIX
teen times less salter than the Medlterra-
mean, vessel which leaves Toulon or
Marseilles for Sebastapool must take
smaller cargo than one that only goes to
Constantinople, and still smaller one II
! il is to enter the sea of Azoff, which Is
siohteen times less salt that the Medit-
erranean. The Mediterranean is twice
! as salt as the Atlantic; once more than
the Adriatic, Eve times more than the
Caspian Sea and seventeen times moro
than the sea of Marmora.[ The Dead sea
contains more salt than any other sea; it
is asserted on good authority that two
IONS of its water contains $50 pounds OF
salt and magnesis.

eOrpESa"

Hear an old Soldier.

The following Is letter written by
General Wool to friend in New York.
Will not honest Democrats and lukewarm
Republicans heed the voice of the hero
of the war of IL, Of the war Of AS, and
the war of '6l:
was more than delighted with the
views you entertain in regard to the elec-
ton of Mcclellan to the Presidency OF
the United States. You have said truth
full that his election means the trailing
of our flag in the dust before its enemies;
the entire subserviency of the North to
the South" and you might have added
the surrender of the United States to
jefferson Davis and his Government
That such is the intention, if they succeed
in the election of Mcclellan, of the lead
ers of this widespread conspiracy of
peacemakers, there can not be shadow
of doubt. It extends over the North as
well as the South. Its influence is seen
and felt in every. city, town and hamlet
throughout the land, with its headquart-
ers in Canada, stimulated and encouraged
by the three Presidential factions in the
Republican ranks, which appears to have
paralyzed the whole party.
The conspirators have taken advantage
of this silence and apathy of the Republi-
cans, who have hitherto professed to be
supporters of the war, and have not failed
to add to their ranks the weak, the timid
and cowardly of the Republican party, as
well as of the Democratic party. Within
the last two days, however. the Repusli-
cans have been somewhat reused from
their lethargy by the recent successes of
Major General Sherman. Nothing. for
aught that can discover, will save the
Union and its Government but the sue
cesses of Grant, Sherman, Farragut and
Sheridan.
These successes may rouse the people
and preserve our. country; but nothing
else, from present appearances, will save
it from the danger with which it is threat
ened. The perils of the Union were new
er greater than at the present moment
The conspirators have secret associations,
whose members are scattered over the
land, using every means in their power
to alarm and frighten the ignorant and
timid They are also distributed through
out the armies and navy of the United
States, and exerting all their powers to
induce those who have the privilege of
voting to cast their votes for Mcclellan,
who is represented to be popular with the
rank and file. At future day may
present facts which will substantiate all !
have said in regard to this dangerous con-
spiracy and their convention and their
candidate for the Presidency.
|, 1t was not the sword Of Csesa rthat des-
troyed the liberty of Rome, but the dem
agogues that thronged the forum with
souls dead to their country's honor, and
spotted with corruption.
am, respectfully, your obedient servt,
ISigned,1 JOHN E. WOOL.
