Inequalities In the Ration Of the
Ocean,

Z
WARRINGTON, Oct. 1S.--Capt. Geo.
4. Belknap, commanding the United
States steamship Alaska, at Callao bay,
Peru, reports TO the Navy Department,
under date Of September %, that when
returning to San Lorenzo Island q line
OF deep sea surroundings was run for
distance Of about 200 miles. These
soundings revealed the existence Of a
much more aprupt descent Of the ocean
bed than was shown on the line run by
the Alaska from Anson bay In June and
July last, and the character Of the bot
tom was found TO be quite different. A
distance Of II miles from Saa Lorenzo
1 land gave depth Of 343 fathoms; Is
miles, 22 miles, 33 miles and 81 miles
further on respectively resulted in
depths of 992, 1902, 1858 and 2,60S
fathoms. Captain Belknap says these
soundings would seem to indicate that
the depression found IN the line from
Arson bay was parallel with the coast,
and shoals ON its northern end in about
the latitude of the Huara Islands.

II is worth mentioning that this pa.

also be seen that these publications
