SIZE OF THE ARK-Infidels have OBJ
jected to the size Of the ark. k.-have ass
serted that it is quite absurd to sup-
pose that ever there could be vessel
constructed large enough to hold all
Tho creatures which must have been
placed in it, with sufficient food, it n. ay
De tor six or twelve months, water for
fish, corn for the four footed animals,
seed for the birds, and so on. Now we
will take the dimensions of the ark
from the record of Moses. and calcu-
late thom on the lowest possible scale.
There are two definitions given toN
cubit; one that it is eighteen inches.
We will take it only at the lowest.
Moses states that the ark was three
hundred cabits long; this would make
it four hundred and fifty feet long, or
about the length of ST Paui's Cathe.
dral, London. The breadth he states
to be forty cubits; we then have it
seventy-five feet in breadth. He
states it to be thirty cubils high, SO
thatiJ was forty.fve feet in height.
The tonnage Of the ark according to
the computation ofmodern carpenters,
must have been thirty.two thousand
tons. Thelargest English chip, OF a
size altogether unimagiuabe to those
who have never seen it,, is two thous>
and FIVE hundred tons burden so that
the ark must havo been equal to sew
enteen first rate ships of war, and if
armed as such ships arc, it would have
contained beyond eighteen thousand
men, and provisions for them for eight
teen months. Button has asserted that
all four'footed animals may be re'
duced to two hundred and fifty pairs,
and the birds to still smaller number.
On calculating, therefore, we shall find
that the ark would have held more
than five times the necessary number
ofcreatures, more than five times the
required quantity of food to maintain
them for twelve montbs.-[Dr. Cum.

Of perfection in domestic economy.

remarkable for the delicacy of it's

from the earth, feeding upon the nee

icately soft, sheltered, and undistin'

of which it seems a most natural ex'

white eggs, as large as peas, adorn the
nest, upon which, as asserted by some
naturlists, the cock and hen cit by
turns for ten or twelve days. The lit.

SOMETHING FOR THE LADIES'
Massachusetts, Judge has decided that a
husband may open a wife's letters. on
the ground so often and SO terseiy stated
by Mr.. Theophilus Parsons. Of Cambridge
that tie husband and wife were one, and
the husband is that Olo b..
We don't doubt that the law is as above
stated, since the authority is Of the high
est character. But the husband that
would open his wife's letters because the
law permits it, is a brute, and has no
Pace in civilized society. There is just
che rule in this matter, which so far ap-
proaches the sancli.y Of holy writ that /:
should supersede all hHman statutes
and it is, under 10 circumstances. as you
value your hoaor., break the sea! of :
letter, package or enclosure of any sor;
which is directed to another person, be II
wife, sister, husband, brother, or ever
son or daughter old enough to be treated
With confidence and respect.

The National Inte,ligeacer saws:
,s. Exchangeron London has been quoted in
New York at 106a. A fall Of exchange to
this rate has always heretofore been fol-
lowed by the importation Of gold Mer-
chants in Liverpool, &C., will find profit in
remitting gold for the purchase OF cotton
blils. 1t Is expected, indeed, that the
amount of exchange will be in our favor,
and that tho export Of gold, which has
now ceased, will not be renewed. Possibly
breadstutls and provisions may be 50 Far
reduced in price under the decline of gold
in this country, that the export trade OF
those articles may bc resumed and prose-
cuted- at a brisk rate. This would soon
turn tide of gold into this country.
Should VIC remain exempt from the hog and
