A New World Of Wonder.

The microscope has been called man.
sixth sense. After exhausting all the ma
tural powers, unaided by science, there
yet remains an unknown world of nature
to which the senses have no access. The
microscope opens this amazing creation
to our vision; and we find it teeming
with organized life and beautiful forms,
in comparison with which the grosser
structures seem quite imperfect.
The earth on which We tread is in
many places simply the remains of living
things, which once moved and felt the
sunlight, and died to build up world of
variety and usefulness for man in his turn
to live and die upon. The city of Rich
mond is built upon such gray eyard.
The chalk cliffs of England are made of
dead infusoria. The rotten stone with
which We polish metals is only the shells
of minute creatures whose day of exis-
tence was millions of years ago. The
dirt eaters of Lapland, of North Carroll
ma, and of California, devour the remains
of organized life, and derive nourish-
ment from the animal matter, which has
survived countless ages for these wretch
ed beings to feed upon.
All these things come to us through
the little tube upon which science has
conferred these marvellous powers and
science is yet ccasclcssly working on to
results still more surprising The last
advance which has just been made in
New York is a very large one. Until
now the best microscope magnited an
object not more than two hundred mil
hon times its actual size, and very few
microscopists ever saw such power. The
President Of the Royal Society of Eng
land last summer showed a shell magni-
fled one hundred and forty-four million
times, and this excited the establishment
of microscopists throughout the world
But the new optical combination Just
completed in that city exhibits the same
object Under an enlargement of nine
thousand million times its natural mag
nitude An ordinary fly, seen entire
under such maenitication would seem
I to cover a space as large as thc whole city

THE GREAT UTAH MYSTERY.
The Discovery Of the Outlet OF Great
Salt Lake.

To-day We give the facts, as we have
them, relative to the discovery of sub
terranean outlet to Great Salt Lake.
This inland sea, the briniest of all the
waters of the world, and which former
Investigations pronounced as being kept
at its level by the action of evaporation,
has itself solved the mystery of the noun
tains. The lofty hills and all the lovely
islands have for countless ages found a
mirror for their grand majesty i'll the
bosom of our lake, and its FURNISHED face
has been kept bright with the crystal
supplies of a Thousand streams from out
the roaring canOns, clefts and snowy
reservoirs of the Rocky chain. The eye
of science has scanned with care the
agencies which, it was supposed, held the
aqueous wonder in its place, and the
Humboldts and Sillimans of two CONT
nents saw no escapement for the " Hang
ing Sea y save through the aerial path
ways of the sun. Many years ago the
bureau of topography sought to explain
the permanent equilibrium of Great Salt
Lake, whose thirst absorbs greater sup
ply of fresh water than Michigan or Erie,
but still the reduction was the same.
Every trial said its shores were saved
from flood by the evaporating power.
This is no longer a theory, and never
was correct
One night last week the schooner
Pioneer, Captain Hannah, on her voyage
from Corinne to Stockton, when mt a
point i'll the lake between Fremont and
Kimball Islands, nearly opposite this
city, came suddenly i'll contact with some
thing which the Captain thought more
solid than water, believing his vessel to
have stranded upon rocks. Instead OF
tins, however, the men on the Pioneer
discovered that she was i'll the whirl of Il
maelstrom, for the vessel immediately
revolyed as If in IA circular ctu ent, and
the motion was SO rapid III the revolu-
tons made that the men could scarcely
stand at their duties.
Captain Hannah being ali old sailor,
and understanding the danger he was in,
at once added sail, and brisk wind
blowing at the time, the craft was, after
about half an hours detention, borne be
yond the vortex of the eddy. He informs
General Conner, the owner of the
schooner, and from whom we get these
interesting facts, that while in the trough
of the ugly hole the deck was far lower
than the water outside the whirlpool, and
that he owes the safety of vessel and men
to the stiff breeze which fortunately
sprang up at the time. The noise of the
waters as they descended denoted that
some mighty airless cavity below gave
strength to the suction, and the surging
frothy foam above was like the boiling of
mammoth caldron. That this is the
safety valve of Great Salt Lake there
seems no doubt, and We can reasonably
assume that similar openings are numer-
GUS on the bottom. The steamer Kate
Conner will be ready in two or three
days to go on the lake, when the General,
accompanied by II party of gentlemen
from this city, will go out and examine
the maelstrom. tt0h Repo,ter

developed at the hearing are rs follows
On the first of the month. Thomas J

An Awkward Mistake.

two pretty sisters who had married. one
an eminent LAWYER, the other n distin-
gulshed literary man. Literary man dies,
and leaves younger sister a widow
Some years roll away, and the widow
lays aside her weeds. Now. then. II
happens that certain author and critic
has occasion, on biuiling day in sum
mer, to call on the eminent LAWYER, hus-
band of the elder sister. He finds the
lawyer pleading and sweltering in a
crowded court, sees that the LAWYER is
suffering dreadfully from the heat, pitics
HIM, reIoices that he himself is not IA
lawyer, and goes for Il cool saunter under
the sheltering trees of fashionable park
and garden.
Among the lce-eating, tanning crowd
there he meets the younger of our two
sisters, and for the moment he thinks he
is speaking to the elder
Oh, Mr.. -, answered the lady.
