THE BIRDS OF THE SEA.


The birds that belong to the sea are verJ
curious, and their number beyond all calcu.
iaHon. Every naked rock or surf beaten
cliff that rises over the immeasurable
deserts Of ocean, Is the refuge Of myriads
Of sea-birds every coast from the poles tc
the equator, is covered with their ~leeions,
and far from the land their swarms hover
over the solitudes of the deep.
Inc penguins are, perhaps, Of all others,
the birds that most widely depart from the
ordinary type Of their class. Their wings
are adapted exclusively for motion IN
water, and they swim with such rapidity
and perseverance, with the head alone out
OF water, that they frequently overtake
fishes in fair pursuit. They live in the sea,
and have been met with q thousand miles
from the nearest known land. The larger
birds Of this kind sometimes weigh as much
as eighty pounds, and in their stomachs
have been found two pounds weight of
pebbles md large stones, swallowed, nc
doubt, to assist the gixzard to pound upthe
food submitted to its notion.
The frigate bird, the petrol, and the
aibatross, seem to range through the air
over the whole extent of ocean from coast
to coast of the Atlantic and the Pacific.
The pelican, also. and the cormorant
are TAR more nearly dependent on water
than land, and strictly belong to our pres
emit subject. They are all birds of power
full and rapid flight, feeding IN fishes, and
rarely seen fur inland, though often stretch
ing to great distances across wide expanses
Of sea. Thanks to them, we have those
accumulated masses of guano which help
to fertilze our lands. Some idea Of the
extent OF these masses may be obtained
when it is stated that. on the island of
Ibuiqne alone, upwards of six millions of
cubic feet of guano have been removed
within the last thirty years. while, in the
year 1854, not less than half a million of
tons were exported from the Chineha Is
lands.

EMPEROR WILLIAM SHOT AT.

Berlin, May I'LL y. m.-Two shot
we're fred into the Emperor William
carriage from the sidewalk without effect
The assassin ran into tho Middle avenue
followed by crowd. On an attempt be
ing made to capture him he fred three
more shots and threw his revolver away
He was then secured.
The emperor's carriage was stopped and
the footman sprang from the box and as.
sisted at the capture. A few minutes af
terwards another individual was seized in
the Middle av0nue, in consequence Of m
alleged attempt TO rescue the assassin.
The assassin is a tinsmith named Emil
Heinrich Max Hoedel, said TO bo from
Leipsic. lie was taken TO the nearest po'
lice station, where preliminary investi'
CATION was instituted. The accomplice ar.
rested is named Kruger laborer, be-
longing to Berlin.
There we're unceasing demonstrations
before the palace throughout the evening.
Dense masses are streaming in from the
remotest suburbs to manifest their loyal
ty and sympathy, singing the national
anthem.
The emperor went TO the opera and Roy
al theatre tonight and received great ova-
lions.
Berlin, May l2.-At the official eEamin>
alton Hoedel, the prisoner, stated he was
a native Of Leipsic and born in 1857. He
denied that he fred at tho emperor. He
affirmed that he was without food and in
tended to shoot himself publicly to show
tho rich the present condition of the peo>
pie. He stated that he shot once at him
self and copId not account for the other
three shots which were wanting in the
chambers OF bis revolver.

THE OBJECTS OF THE HOWGATE
POLAR EXPEDITION.

Favorable reports relative TO Captain
Howgate 's plan for exploring the Arctic
regions have been made IN both Houses
of Congress, and a bill providing for n
suitabl. appropriation will shortly be
considered. Captain Howgatc has point>
ed out the cardinal objects OF his plan
With much clearness, and IN way
which must 20 far TO satisfy those who
can see no national benefit to accrue
| from Polar expeditions, the ostensible
end OF which is the empty glory OF
showing the flag at the pole, aBnexing
new territories Of ice fields, and bring
ing polar bears and Esquimaux under
the blessings of Republican govern
ment. The fact is, however, that the
benefits to be gained by Captain How
gzte's scheme are really great import
ance and perhaps most especially so IN
the additions TO our knowledge OF the
laws OF meteorology which will be secur-
ed. In reducing meteorology TO an cx~
act science, an experienced German
student and explorer has shown the ne
cessity Of comprehension OF the con-
ditions existing in the Polar zones. The
general movements OF the atmosphere
arise from the exchange of cold and
warm, OF dry and humid air, between
the poles and the equator. How enor-
nous must be the influence OF the huge
masses Of polar ice upon the distribu-
ton Of the earth's heat is obvious.
Greenland and Iceland afford proofs
how the movements Of ice, driven by
winds and oceanic currents, may affect
the climate of country, hut our knowl>
edge Of these movements is very deiec
tive. Now it is possible that the ice of
the Polar zones may be the regular
cause of our own climatic conditions the
origin Of many OF the furious storms
which sweep destructiyely along our
coasts and over our own land. IL ispro-
baby not saying too much, adds the
same authority, when we assert that the
Polar regions are the most important
portions Of our globe for the study of
the natural sciences.
The extreme conditions under which,
the forces Of nature act in the vicinity
Of the poles produce phenomena which
offer Us the best means OF investigating
the nature Of the forces themselves. AS
in meteorology, so, also, in terrestrial
magnetism and electricity, these have
to do with forces of the most tremend-
Gus magnitude, often exhibited in des>
tructive energy, but never yet snbdued
10 the service of man. So, too, If IL isl
