MoBNoN lNSusRANTs-The United States mail
steamship Minnesota, Captain Morgan, Of VII
liens Il GuiOns line, arrived at this port on Mon
day from Liverpool with 900 passengers Of whom
coo are converts to the Mormon faith and on their
way to the city Of the latter Day Saints.
About three hundred OF these disciples of
Brigham Young are ine-looking, healthy people
from Norway, Sweden and Denmark, and the
remainder are natives Of England, Wales aud
Scotland. They have been culled from the work
ing classes, Wolverhampton and Birmingham fur
nishing large proportion. They seem to be en-
tire families, and among them are man aged 81
years aud woman 50. The decks of the steamer

tery we're lively with the many children of immi-
grants chasing each other in noisy games about
the ship. The older ones were busy collecting
their baggage and opening it for the inspection of

tons Of the Mormon missionaries, the converts
being sent from their native places TO Liverpool

TIE LATE RIoTs IA BEIFAsT.-~ Order reigns
once more in Belfast says the London Tee
:gsaDh, land we may say without impotence,
that it was high time it should reign. Foreign
nations" that journal continues, (which blame
England for her dealings with ireland, might well
be requested to turn their attention TO this Hi
bernian city, which calls itself by all sorts Of
proud names, and so judge whether it is an easy
task to make Ifisbmen quiet and happy" While
we write Belfast presents the appearance, IN more
than one quarter, OF place which has been
sacked By an Infatuated army. There are entire
streets wherein a whole pane Of glass is not to
be found the very easements being shattered TO
pieces while the feathers from hundred mat
irasses strew the roadway, and piles Of embers
here and there show the spots in which the furni-
ture OF the victims Of one or the other side has
been reduced to ashes. In the middle Of these
ruins, and between the halfquiesed savages of
Sandy Row and the Pound, is encamped force
OF nearly 1000 strong IN ALL if we count police
men and militia with the regulars little army
in fact, and yet the fighting has come to an end
much more because the rain fell and the combat
acts were weary, than by reason of any effective
interference. We ask our foreign critics TO con-
template this monstrous spectacle and to tell US
what they could do better or more gently than we
have done with furious fools ike the Protest

Africans and East Indians is really relevant any

Of the 9th Lancers that before the FIRST of July
he would run quarter Of a mile, hop quarter
Of a mile. ride quarter Of a mile, walk quar-

quarter Of an hour. The task was set down for
decision at Windsor on Monday, but in conse-
guence Of the departure Of the officers from tie
place that day, it was subsequently arranged that
the match should take place on the Friday pre-

The ATLANTIC FERRY. There is something
more than daily ferry now between Europe and
America In fact. the rate is something like a
steamer for every twelve hours from the port Of
Liverpool alone. During the month of May,
6fty,three steamships left the Mersey, of which
thirty.four came to New York, eight to Boston
eight TO Quebec and Montreal. and three TO Hal
flax, Norfolk, and Baltimore. Seventeen Of
these belong to the CunArd Company, eleven to
the Inman, FIVE to the National. FIVE to the White
Star, ten to the Allan, and six to the Guion
Companies respectively. When to these are
added the ships of the Anchor, French, and
German lines, we get some idea Of the prodigious
increase of late in steam communication between
the continents

The OPEN POLAR SEA.-lf writer in the English
periodical, Nat,s is correct in his views the open
Polar Sea, unless discovered soon, will exist no
more. Land is said to be rising everywhere be-
tween the Pole and the 55h parallel and the greatest
movement is at the Pole itself Some interesting
facts are quoted in support of this theory Pliny
says that Scandinavia is archipelago, aud speaks
of bold seamen who had circumuavigated the group
OF islands. Ptolemy confirms him. Celsius said,
in the seventeenth century, that Norway was rising
at the rate Of forty inches year. Sir Charles Lyell
indorses the theory. The water-leye in the Gulf of
Bothuia falls one foot every fifteen years Near
Gefe, there are low pastures where old men remem-
Der seeing boats afoat Near Stockholm, seventy
feet above the level Of the sea- the remains of she'll
fish, identical with the present coast Species are
there is a bed of sand which contains some wrecked
boats aud an old anchor In the interior of Spitz-
bergen, skeletons of whales have been unearthed
forty feet above the sea level. The fishermen saw
that the shallowness of the water has driven away
the right whale, which, once abundant, is now
rarely seen. On the Pacific the shores around
Behring's Straits are low and fat, but mile or two
back there are ranges of bluffs, parallel with the
coast, and containing nnumerabe shells of the Tito
raj species Ifihe theory true, it offers curious
case of compensation. While the ocean is washing
away Great Britain, and France, and Holland, and
New England, away TO the north the continents are
encroaching on the sea- The only pity is, that the
process can not be reversed, and Neptune enriched
at the expense OF the frozen north aud to the gain
OF the more habitable south.

THE LABOR QUESTION MAsTERED.-One of the
leading railroads that enter this city-the Chi
cagO, Rock Island and Pacifc-has mastered the
labor question, as far as the strife about the num-
Der of working hours in the day is concerned.
The company pays BY the hour il the shops, by
the mile to those who operate the rolling stock.
The engineer who runs an extra train receives an
extra compensation for it. In hurrying times in
the shops, those who wish to work over the
ordinary time can do so. and receive proportionate
wages In dull times the company does not dis
charge its efficient wor1meu, but allows all to
labor a sufficient number of hours to support
their families. In busy times 1t encourages them
to work more hours instead of putting on more
hands. In this way competent men find sort
Of security, and those who are ambitious to make
as much as they can have the opportunity

THE last good story related of Henry Ward Beech
or is that he was standing IN front OF the Twin
Mountain House week or two since, wearing a not
particularly mnisterialrig, dandy-lI1e gentleman
drove up and asked him 10 pompous tone if he
would take his horses to the stable Mr. Beecher re-
piled that he would politely helped the ladies from
the carriage, took the preferred twenty five cents and
drove to the stable. The story soon in every
bodys mouth, and it is unnecessary to say that the
gentleman len that night, as should think he
would have done under the circumstances.

PROFESSOR MUII.ER in course Of lectures in
Berlin, offered simple and mechanical explaua-
ton Of the universal admiration bestowed on cir.
cles. The eye is moved in its socket BY six mus
cles, Of which four are respectively employed to

The other two have an action contrary to one an
other, and roll the eve on its axis, or from the
outside downward, and inside upward When,
therefore, an object is presented for inspection,
the first act is that of circumvision, OF going
round the boundary lines, so as to bring cousecu-
lively every individual. portion of the circumfer-
ence upon the most delicate and sensitive por-
ton or the retina- Now, If figures bounded by
straight lines be presented for inspection, it is
obvious that but two of these muscles can be
called into action and it Is equally evident that
in curves Of circle or elhpse all must alternately
be brought to action. The effect then is, that il
two only be employed, as 10 reciiIinear figures,
those two have an undue share of labor; and by
repeating the experiment frequently, as We do in
childhood, the notion of tedium is insrIed,
distaste for straight lines is gradually formed, and
We are led to prefer those curves which supply a
more general and equable share Of work to the
muscles.

New England summer resort, which is too good
to be lost. Rev. Dr. T., of the Trnitarian Con-
gregauonal church, and Rev. NJ B., of the Uni:a-
rian, being on the best terms, were one day
invited to dine at the house of mutual friend
Mr. B., for some reason, failed to come, and some
one at the table took occasion to remark upon
his excellent qualities. " Yes said the Doctor,
" be is very fine man but isn't it pity he will
swear?" Mr.. B. swear! What do you meau?'
" Mr.. B. is very fine man. persisted the Doc
tor, but am sorry to say he sometimes swears."
Being pressed for an explanation. he finally
yielded. Some time before the two had been
out fishing together and as the Doctor stood on
a rock be heard some conversation between
Mr.. B. and a fisherman, who we're at little dis

following rules, which viii be found useful to
many OF our readers: First, see that the animal

Then measure from the bone of the tail which
plumbs the line with the hinder part Of the but

length. Then work the figures thus: Suppose

than fire feet to girth-make $50 lbs When
the animal measures less than nine and more
than screen feet in girth, 81 is the number of
pounds to be estimated for each superficial foot
