GROWTH OF CoRALs.-An interesting
fact has recently been observed respecting
the growth ofcorals. Somewhat less than
two years ago Captain McGregor, of the
steamer Kiluca, moored buoy in Kealak.
ekua Bay. Last week he was ordered to
hoist the anchor and examine the copdi.
tion of the chain. The latter, which is a
heavy two.inch cable, was covered with
corals and oyster shells. some of which
are as large as a mans hand The larger
corals measure four and a half inches in
length, which represents their growth
during the period of two years that the
anchor aud cable had been submerged.
The specimen which we have seen shows
the nature of its formation By the little
coral insects more distinctly than any we
have before examined. When taken out
OF the water, it had small crabs on il. A
query arises whether these crabs live ON
the coral insects, or whether they simply
seek the branches of the coral for protec.
ton, The popular supposition is that co.
rails are of extremely slow growth. Here
we have a formation equal TO more than
seventeen feet in century.

MECHANICS.
Meeting of the Members of fhe Institute.
Very Satisfactory Reports - TO the
Progress Of the Exposition Scheme.

The regular monthly meeting of the
Mechanics Institute took place last
night, president Burke, Alderman, in
the chair.
Alderman Burke, chairman of the
subscription committee, said that the
committee, since it was raised. had been
increased by other members appointed
at pa citizens meeting. The new
committee held a meeting on Monday
night at the Peabody Hotel, and it was
found that $4,000 had been subscribed.
He thought it would be an easymatterto
raise the required S25, 600. He felt great
ly encouraged in going on with the en-
terprise. There would be a meeting of
the stockholders in the Chamber of
Commerce on Monday night. 1t would
be necessary to appoint some one to re-
present the stock which was taken by
the Institute at that meeting.
In answer to am inquiry, Mr.. Burke
said hat the Institute had only taken
twenty shares. a committee which
had been previously appointed con
grounds" for the proposed exhibition
was discharged.
Colonel Pickett spoke in favor of coli
tinuing the committee on the ground
that the Mechanics Institute being a
permanent affair would necessarily be
interested in the location of the Expo
sition building, as it would become the
residuary legatee Of much of the stock
which he felt many citizens would give
for its benefit. They were in want of a
hall and a library, and these wants
ought always be kept in view.
L. Woodbridge was elected a member
of the Institute. James b. Cork was
also elected.
2. J. Quigley was also elected.
On motion of the Secretary, the Presi-
dent was authorized to send three dele
gates to the Nashville Exposition.
The President was authorized to vote
the stock of the Institute i'm the EXPOSE
ton Company.
Mr.. Mansford, who has been acting as
Secretary of the Subscription Commit
tee, reported that three books out of
eight showed seven thousand five hun
bred dollars subscribed upon them. The
President said he was aware himself of
one other book that had about four thou
sand dollars in subscriptions OF it.
Colonel Pickett submitted the follow
ing resolution, which was adopted:
Resolved, that this Institute take great
pleasure in the prospect of the Memphis
Industrial Exposition, and in addition
to the stock already subscribed, they
pledge themselves TO cooperate individ-
ually and collectively, and give the Ex-
position all the aid and active assistance
they can to promote its success.
Re6OtUed, that we commend the Expo
sitiOn TO the great body of mechanics of
this city, and earnestly solicit their ac-
tive support.
A resolution of Mr.. MansfOrd author
izing the president to subscribe for twen-
ty shares in the Exposition, was adopt
ed.
A resolution was adopted providing
that the hnst v~ice-president act as alter
to President Burke i'm voting the
stock in the Exposition.
Adjourned.
