Hon. Thomas Ewing in late letter on the
Mississippi River. developes an interesting
theory of the tendency of rivers running
southwark to abrade their western banks,
and attributes it to the constantly increasing
centrifugal force impaired to the water as it
proceeds to the South. He inforces this ex
PLANTATION by pointing to the fact that ships
sailing southwark must correct westward
tendency in all things moving northward.
This is idea which deserves elaboration
an the light of more ample facts.

FAST TIME-The members of the Hunga-

dispatched two carrier pigeons to Cologne,
whence they had arrived before. The
pigeons commenced their fight at 6 A. M.

arrived from Cologne stating that they had
reached that town at two, thus performing
the whole distance between Pesth and Colo
gne (about 600 miles) in eight hours.
