The Deep Sea.

Some interesting results of recent deep
sea explorations were conclsely stated in
late lecture at the Royal institution,
London. Four-elevenths, or nearly three
fourths of the surface of the earth is COW
cred by sea. The average depth of the
ocean is, according to the latest calcula-
tions, about 1877 fathoms, or somewhat
over two miles. The greatest depth ever
known to exist was discovered by the
United States ship Tuscarora near the
Kurile islands, in the Northeast Pacific.
1t Is 4, $50 fathoms, or about five miles
and quarter. The highest mountain
existing is about the same height as the
deepest sea is deep. Mount Everett is
is 1873 fathoms In height. So insignifi-
cant, however, is the total volume of the
land raised above the sea level in pro-
portion to the vast cavity occupied by
the sea, that were this cavity emptied of
its water, the whole of the land now
above sea level could be shoveled into it
twenty-five and half times over before
it would be filled up to the present sea
level.
Nevertheless, the depth OF the oceans
great as it is, is as nothing in comparison
with the vastness of their extent of sur
face. As Mr.. Croll has said, the ocean
In relation to their superficial area, are
as shallow as sheet OF water 100 yards
in diameter and only an inch IN depth.
The sides of the ocean basins are not at
steep. They are mostly SO little inclined
that an ordinary locomotive engine could
run up them IN a straight line with ease,
Their inclination ID usually not more
than three or four degrees, or less
Around some oceanic islands the slope
is greater. The steepest slope known is
at Bermuda where there is an inclination
of nearly twenty degrees from the edge
of the reef to 1900 fathoms. There are
no such things as mountains and valleys
on the deep sea bottom. Animals can
not slip down against their will into the
depths, but must move deliberately into
them, and travel long journey to reach
them. The pressure exerted by the SUI
perincumbent~ water at great depths is
SO great as to be almost beyond concep-
ton. It amounts roughly to ton on
the square inch for every 1000
fathoms of depth, about 1866 times. as
much as the pressure to which
people are subjected on land. At the
greatest depths the pressure is about
four tons and q half. Vast though this
pressure IS, it is, however, emily about
one-eighth Of that which Professor Abel
and Captain Noble have measured, as
produced in their experiments on gum
powder. The deep sea animals, being
completely permeated by fluids, are prob.
ably no more conscious Of pressure act
ing upon them than we, and, 80 long as
they move slowly from ONE depth to an

Inhalation.

DIR. Hunter, of Chicago, whose project for the
erection OF hospital forthe treatment Of lung
diseases formed the subject matter ola recent
article in this paper, has revolutioniZed the
method OF treating all forms of lung disease,
especially consumption. Instead Of treatment
by remedies through the stomach, his method
is to destroy the germs of disease in the lungs
by inhalation, and the success Of his treatment
testifes to its advantages over all methods
hitherto tried. Thousands in this city have
been restored to health by inhalation, while
the whole State of illinois probably could not
show single case of even chronic bronchitis
cured by the old method, to say nothing Of
that more dangerous malady, consumption.
Experience, the experience of many years, is
worth, in medicine, all the theoretical dogmas
even promulgated. The two systems of treat
ment, the old and the new, have been thor.
oughiy tried. The result in one case, is uni
versal failure; in the other, almest universal
success. OF course the patient who has neglect
ed his malady till its hold on him is overmaster-
ing, or has had his system broken down by
false methods of treatment. can have little
hope of relief in this world, and may as well
turn his attention to the next. But to those not
yet beyond the possibility of a cure, DR..
Hunter, by his admirable system of treatment
by inhalation, stretches out aIhelpiDg hand, Of

The Digging Up of Ancient Troy.

The st. Petersburg Gol0s has received
q letter from the celebrated arch@ologist,
Schliemann, dated at Athens, which con-
tains this interesting piece of informa-
ton: l have just returned from Asia
Minor, where / have at last finished that
digging out Of Troy which I begun in
1870. During the last ten years have
struggled with great difficulties, among
which perhaps the most troublesome has
been the amount of debris under which
the ancient city was buried. It has cen
necessary TO dig down and up the ground
for more than sixteen yards below the
surface. But am fully recompensed
tor all my trouble. found the remains
Of seven different cities: the last of them
was lion of Homer. That city was built
by Eolians, banished from. Greece by the
Dorians in the eleventh century before
our era. In one of the buried cities
I found many statues of Minerva
with the owls head, whence her
name of Glaucopsis. In another city
were found many images of the divinities.
But the most interesting ana important
of all discoveries is, of course, the city of
King Priam. Every article found in the
ruins of that city bear unmistakeable
signs Of having been destroyed by FIRE in
time of war. There were discovered
many remains of human bodies In full
armor. dug OFT and cleared away the
debris from the entire wall that surround
ed the city, and also from all the prInci-
pal buildings. Now / am finishing a
large volume in English describing with
full details all my discoveries and con-
tanning 200 illustrations of the most i'm
portant of these discoveries. NV Trojan

end of this year shall take to nv villa

with towel to remove all traces OF
perspiration, and then applied liberal
coating of mutton-t allow. After this
was patiently and literally rubbed in on
every portion of his countenance, so as
to prevent the paint and other mixtures
from injuring the skin, he applies a
preparation of chalk and bismuth, which
gave him an exceedingly CHASTITY ap-
pearance, his head being covered with
white cloth. When this process was
satisfactorily accomplished, and every
spot covered, he took little cup con-
tanning tallow and lamp black, and ap-
piled it in spots with delicate camel's-
hair brush, previously having held it
over stub of candle until it was melt
ed to the proper consistency. Having
artistically spotted and streaked his face
with this preparation, he placed cup of
tallow and Chinese vermillion over the
light, and drew cone-ehaped figure on
each side of his mouth and freely paint
ed his lips. This had the effect of en-
abling him toproduce that seven-by-nin
smile which is SO effective in the ring.
He tried it in the mirror, and being Salts
fed with the effect, he donned his quaint
garments of many colors, took hitch in
his trousers, set his hat ja11ntily on his

IT is sold that vermin in pigeon cots

min thrive best in dry places.
CALVES and colts should be weanea
before the cold weathef begins; ,ahd
While there is some fresh grass for them
to eat. They do better if weaned now
than later in the season.
HALF the profit Of farming result from
taking care of the crops after maturity.
Lealzy barns, half made granaries, faulty
stacks aud bad fencing cause more loss
to farmers than bad seasons.
LOOK we'll to all kinds of live stock
upon the approach of winter. The
fruits Of b summers grazing will be
swept away by the first cold blast if the
animal is not provided with abundance

A CARELESS farmer suffers his corn
shocks to twist and fall down, where
they remain until he is ready to shuck
them. Often this is late, and in rainy
seasons the fodder, and often half the
corn, is loss.
A BRITISH gardener, says a London
exchange; green's all his seed potatoes by
leaving them in a light place, but shield
ed from the sun, and finds that thus
treated they keep much better during
winter and are much harder for seed.
PROFESSOR RILEY says that kerosene
or oil of any kind is sure death to insects
in all stages, and the only substance
with which we may hope to destroy the
eggs. Oils will not mix directly with
water, but will mix with milk, fresh or
sour, and then may be diluted to any
desired extent.
To KEEP celery through the winter,
the american Cultiv0t0y advises:
"About the last of October dig trench
eighteen inches deep and twelve inches
wide, in some dry place where drainage
is perfect, so that no water can stand in
it. Lift the celery with considerable soil
round the roots, stand the branches up
right as they grew in the trench; pack
them as close as possible; draw the earth
close against them, then lay on them
boards, and on top Of these coarse straw
or leaves, or both.
