Now Guinea.

| Immediately north of Au ,Uralia, and
| separated from 1t at Torres Straits by
less than hundred miles of sea, is the
largest island on the globe, New Guinea
country of surprising interest,
whether as regards its natural produc-
items or It's human Inhabitants, but
which remains to this day less known
than any accessible portions of the
! earth's surface. Within the last few
years considerable attention has boon
attracted toward it by surveys which
have completed our knowledge of it's
outline and dimensions, by the settle
nent OF English missionaries on it's
southern coasts, by the explorations
OF several European naturalsts, and
by The visits Of Australian miners at
tracted by the alleged discovery of gold
In the sands of its rivers. From those
various sources there has resulted a
somewhat sudden increase in our still
scanty knowledge Of this hitherto un-
known land; and we therefore propose
to give general sketch of the island,
1t has hitherto been the custom
of gcographers to give the palm to
Boraeo as the largest island in
tho world, but this is declded-
~ an error. A careful estimate,
founded on tho most recent maps, show
that New Guinea is considerably the
larger, and must for the future be ac-
corded the first place. In shape, this
island differs greatly from Borneo, be-
ing Irregular, and much extended in a
north-northwest and south-southeast
direction, SO that its greatest length is
little short of fifteen hundred miles:
a distance as great rs tho whole width
OF Australia from Adelaide to Port
Darwin, or of Europe from London to
Constltinople. Its greatest width is
four hundred and ten miles; and,
omitting the great peninsulas which
form its two extremities, the central
mass Is about seven hundred miles
long, with an average width of three
hundred and twenty miles; country
about the size of the Austrian Empire.

OF ono large river, an absolute blank

SCIENTIFIC,

Ne,o pdrniSh.-Some few years ago
1t was discovered in Natal, South Africa
that knives used for cutting down
plants belonging to the natural order
Euph"rblaccD were protected from
rusting by the gum which adhered to
them. This led to further experiments
being made with view OF utilizing
the gum as preservative material.
Iron plates were coated with it, and
subjected to immersion in the waters of
South Africa, which are stated to be
proverbial for their foulness, and for
tho raridity ofthc growth of ofvegetation.
The euphorbia In Natal grows in close
contiguity to the sea shore, 80 that
there was ample opportunity tor severe
ly testing It's value as 4 projecting COW
ering for iron against corrosion and
marine growth. The experiments
proving successful, it was then sought
toput the discovery into practical form.
10 this end the gum was dissolved in 4
preparation Of spirits, and this was
round to DO a ready means Of applying
1t as a coating for ships bottoms, and
for iron-work generally requiring such
protection, the spirits evaporating, and
The gum being left on the surface OF
tho metal. A sheet of iron coated with
this preparation was placed in the wa
tors in the Naval DOckyard at Chatham,
where anything immersed becomes
rapidly fouled. At the end of two
years, tho plate was taken out and
1oand to DO quite clean and free from
toultng and corrosion. The compost
ston has also been successfully tested in
Africa against tho ravages Of the white
ant. Those successes have led to its
adoption In practice for various pur-
poses, and It now being introduced in
England.
