and falling into the Rio Graude in 29' 40
min, it flows over 400 miles in q straight

world perhaps-its actual length is some
thing over 1900 miles. 1t is the most

several miles in breadth, and whose
alluvial oil is of the most fertile descrip-
ton, being composed chiefly OF lime,
sulphur and saline sediments from the
river, besides the accumulated rotten
matter of the grasses When dry 1t

Ifoue wants to realize the majesty Of the
great deserts of the southwest, and the
sublime solitude that reigns on the Ilano
Estacado, or Staked Plains of West
Texas, let him journey across the river
Pecos in the direction Of Camp Stockton,
which is lifty-two miles south Of that
river, and in latitude 80 deg. 40 min.
and in longitude 102 deg. 80 min.
Travelling across the plains that stretch
away TO the northeastward from the
river, over dead-level expanses of prairie,
whose tall grass reaches your horse
belly, and knocks off It's dew globules
against your stirrup feathers, you rather
unexpectedly come upon the Rio Pscos.
That wild and lonesome river has, at
least in this longitude, no trees upon its
banks to mark its course in the great and
arid wastes through which it flows, and
your field glass sweeps over its track as
over any other treeless ravine that de-
pouches from ranges of low hills, unsus-
picious of its presence.

Why Ia. -3a,omoter Rises and Falls.

First of all. what is n barometer? It i.
n tube or pipe, closed Mt one end and open
At the other, and made of some TRANSPARENT;
material, such MS glass, so that it may he
seen through. The tube is filed with the
melted metal called mercury. L when
quite full, he thumb is placed over the
open end ESQ as to keep the mercury from
falling out), and the tube is turned upside
down. So the close end is at the top, the
open end ut the bottom, and if the thumb
were removed, the mercury would, of course,
run out. But now suppose you wished
not to waste any, and so put the open end
OF the tube into u basin with some more
mercury in it, and then removed your
thumb. what would happen! why, the
mercury would oil run out into the basin, I"
some one would say. But this is a mis-.
take, as the italian philosopher Torricelli
found oat and whatever size or length of
tube be taken, the whole of the mercury
will not run out, but a length of about
thirty inches of the u b will remain full of
mercury, and you cannot make it run out
Into the basin unless you either pull the
open end of the tube out of the mercury or
make a hole in the closed end of the tube.
ms puzzled Torricelli for a long time, I'M
TIL at Inst the thought struck him that the
only thing which was on the mercury in
the basin was the air, and that it was prob
ably the weight of the air passing on the
metal which prevented its running out in.
to the basin. "If So" thought Torricelli,
then If l n my tube and basin of mer-
curry up n mountain, less and less of the
tube will remain full. for there is evident
ly less air above the basin at the top of the
mountain than at the bottom" You may
be sure he didn't wait very long before he
made the experiment and to his great de-
light, he found the mercury getting lower
and lower in the tube, thus proving that
1t really was the weight of the air that kept
1t in the tube at all and so the instrument
was called a barometer, which is derived
from the Greek, and means in plain Eng
lish, a " weight measurer." But if the
barometer is watched it will be found to
contain different quantities of mercury on
Iiiterent days. On n fine day the mercury
VII, as a rule. stand higher in the tube
than on a wet day or just before rain and
now for the reason of this. Why does the
barometer rise (nr, rather the mercury in
it, In fine wealth r, and fall when it is going
to be wet? = Now dry air is much
heavier than wet air, or air containing
steam. The consequence is, that when the
air gets moist it becomes lighter, and
presses less on the mercury of the barome-
ter. so more mercury flows out into the ba-
sin, and, consequently, less remains in the
tube. or, as we usually express it, the bar
ometer falls. Now, when the air is very
wet. there is. of course, more chance of rain
than when it is dry. for rain is formed by
the cooling of the steam contained in moist
air.-ffom =" Little Folks for July.
