THE AGAssIZ EXPEDITION

The discoveries of Prof. Agassiz at
Patagonia. and by his deep-sea sound
ings on the voyage thither, promise
to be a great acquisition to science.
He holds a correspondence with one
or two of his CO laborers in tn field
of cosmic investigation East. to
whom he communicates, in general
wav. history CT his discoveries.
These have il several instances been
rather remarkable. He speaks OF
haring found fish shaped Ike wicker
baskets. and sea hog tn It keeps up
an appetite so voraciOus, that after
being laid ont to dry on deck, 1t is
still able to kill and eat other marine
animals. The proofs of glacial ac-
ton in Patagonia; the fact that her
mountains are extinct volcanoes,
giving color to the legends from
which Terra del Fnego took its name;
and the determination of the position
of the coal measures, showing that
the mining operations are carried on
in true coal, are among the lmpor'
tant results of his expedition.- 5.

The National Board of Trade, lately in ses-
sion in New YORK, discussed at some length the
manner ct voting. A resolution was presented
and referred TO. the executive Committee, re-
commenting what il known ss the Hare system.
The Hare System allows every voter to give in
his own ballot, and he may add to the candi-
Gates nominated as many as be pleasss, number
ing them l, 2, 3, &c, according to his prefer
ences; so If there 100 900 voters and ten can
didafes, il requires 1900 votes to insure the
election of any enc candidate.

The Baltimore republicans seem to have done
fairly well in the election yesterday, electing
three members TO the first branch of the city
council, gain Of two over last year. The vote
was light. and the falling OFF was largely on the
democratic side. The democratic vote cast yes
terday was 3 sJi less than they cast in October,
1S'l, whilst the republican and temperance vote
OF yesterday was 300 votes in excess of the vote
received by the reform candidate for mayor in
