P. S.-Since concluding the above
dispatch, Professor Palmieri did me
the honor of special call, and, after
some desultory conversation. approach
ed the all-absorbing topic of the day,
and cautiously expressed his opinion,
as follows: Explaining his theory,
as announced at the Congress, lie said
that /" Holland, Belgium and Denmark
being all low countries. some portions
Of each lying below the sea level, he
would not be surprised if the present
outflow Of lava devastated them all,
and covered the bottom of the North
Sea tor many square leagues with a
bed of basalt.n The reason given was
this: THAT lava must continue to
flow until, by its own action, it builds
up around the volcanic crater rim or
cone high enough to afford counter
poise to
THE CENTRIFUGAL TENDENCY OF AXIAL
ENERGY;
And that, as the earth's crust was
demonstrated to be exceptionally thin
| in the north of Europe, the hight re-
quired in this instance, would be SO
great that an enormous lapse OF time
must ensue before the selfcreated cone
could obtain the necessary altitude.
Before Htna attained its present So
cure hight it devastated an area as
large as France and Professor Whit
ney has demonstrated that some center
of volcanic action, now extinct, In the
State OF California, threw out stream
that covered much greater surface,
as the basaltic table mountains-vul-
carly so callcd-extend north and
south for distance as great as from
Moscow to Rome" In concluding his
remarks he ventured the prediction
that 1.-THE North Sea would be COM
pletely filled up and the British Islands
again connected with the Continent"

P"nca squ.w rushed from the house. and.
before the Sioux could defend himself. gave
him slash;ng cut acrOss the abdomen with
. huge knife. literally cmhuwcllng him. A.
she struck him. the Sioux invOlun,arily
bent forward, claspirg his abdomen with
his hands. and just at ihnt moment the
squaw caught h,m by the hs,r. and with u
savage stroke Of her knife scslped him.
Shaking her cory trophy sloft. and giving .
shrill cry Of defiance. she ,iarted hack into
the building in safety, followed by dozen
rifle balls from As many Sioux, vho from a
distance saw the result Of the sor,ie. The
effect WAS perfectly maddcning upon the
Sioux. for IL have one Of their warriors

They rushed for the building but were met
with fire which laid scversl Of them low.
and SD c'mled the ardor Of the rest ,ia, they
retired to safe distance wi,hou, having
injured any Of their foes. The act of the
squaw seemed to inspire the Poncas. and
Haunting from the window the scalp Of the
unfortunate Sioux, they uttered yclls Of
dcr's'on and contempt which nearly drove
