TOwA'- WONDER.

The greatest wonder in the State of Iowa, and perhaps in any other State, IS what ls called the Walled Lal'e,' n Wright county, r miles north of the Dubuque and Pacific railway, and 150 miles west of Du- buque City. The lake IS from two
 to three feet higher than the earth's surface. h some places the wall IS
 ID feet high, 15 feet vide at the bot tom aud ) feet wide on the top. An- other fact IS tue size of the stones used III the construction, the whole of them varying in weight from three tons down To 100 pounds. There is an abundance of stones in Wright county, but surrounding the lake 10
 the extent of five or ten miles there are lIoue. No one can form an idea
 IS tO the means employed to bring them to the spot or who constructed It. Around the entire lake Is belt of woodland half mile in length. composed of oak With thls excep- ton tue country IS rolling prarie. The trees must have. been planted there at the tune of the building of tue wall. ln the spring # the year 1856 there was d great storm, aud the ice on the lake broke the wall m several places, and the farm -rs iu the yicini- y were obliged to repair tue dam- ages to prevent inundaGion. The lake occupis ground surface of Zc00 acres; depth of water as great IS 25 feet The water is clear and gold, soii saii.ly ID loatny It is tntt no one has been able to ascertain where the Nater comes from nor N5ere it goes. yet t is always clear aa.l fresh

THEORY oF VEINS.
BY BREDhMEYgR, NJ. E.


 It Is generally acknowledged, that the vein Assures and the cavities, con necJed with such Assures iu limestone formations, were filled at one time Rith water, from which the mineral substances after saturatiou OF the water, precipitated themselves on the walls, and also connected as crystals around fragments of rock and brec- cia. This water eaa have it's origin either from a lake, sea or ocean. covering the surface above, or from ascending waters, as well as from the country rock. If the first and second had been the case. then We should find in tue filing up of the fassures, a greater regularity. and more symme- try, in the distribution of minerals along the strike of such Assure than appears at present Every thing warrants tue opinion. and pleads the cause ii favor of in6Itration from the country roek. From all th.s. we certainly masr acknowledge. after close and strict observation. that 1t is impossible b explain the filing u2 of all Assures according to one theory only. We fna tha5 part of the fs- sures were flled mechanically from above, others through injection from below, and again others. through iu- filtration from the eounrrY rook there are also Assures winch show marks of different origins in one and the same Assures :; such are poly genetic veins. Strictly speaking. au injection from below, IS nothing else than descending from some part of the surface through certain lateral i Assures, it connects with the vein certain depth, from which 1t asceuds i egain through the vein assures ru the ] same or similar way, as water through artesian wells, so that injections from below ls Gotang else than in- filtration rom above. and from tine country rock colnbfued in 0f.e.

A Dog Killed by q Mouse.

A gentleman writing to a journal in
Berlin, Germany, relates the following
curious occurrence: "I was alone with
my labors in field where potatoes were
being harvested. My watch dog was
along with me. 1 saw him seize a
mouse. swallow, and then lie down at
my feet. 1 went home to dinner, and.
while seated at the table, was asked
what was the matter with the dog. He
was turning round and moaning, and
something was hanging from his side.
1 took him up in my arms, and found it
was a mouse which had just been killed.
At first 1 thought it had merely stuck in
the long hair, but on examining closer
l saw that only one'half of the mouse
protruded from the dogs body. When
the aperture was cleared, it was found
to be an inch in depth. The dog had
no front teeth, had swallowed the mouse,
and the little animal had at once began
to gnaw its way out. 1t was at first
stopped by one of the ribs, and had ac-
tually burrowed out between the skin
and rib. The dog killed the mouse
when it put its head out by munching it
with his jaws. The dog died the same
day
