Speaking of the formation Of noun
tains, Professor Favre, Of Geneva, has
said that the three systems which 40.
count for the origin OF mountains do not
differ II estly from each other. Those
who admit the system Of elevations as
the principal cause would probably ad-
nit the formation OF depressions as a
secondary canse; while those who give
depression the first place would also
admit elevation as Il secondary factor.
Lastly, In the system Of lateral crush
ing there Is general depression Of the
earth, since there is diminutinn in the
length OF the radius Of the globe, and
yet there result elevations OF the
ground in the midst Of this general
depression.

The IMPORTANCK or VEdETABLga.--
The vegetsble-oater can extract from
Ills food all tho principles neGs ary for
tho growth and support OF the body AS
we'll as tor the production of heat and
torCe, provided that he selects veg
etables which contain all the essential
O 'ements named. But he must for this
purpose consume the best cereals
wheat or oats; or the legumes-beans,
peas, or lentils; or he must swallo v
and digest large weight Of vegetable
matter OF less nutritious value, and, ,
thel ore, at least containing one ele-
mcnC In large excess In order TO obtain
all tho elements no needs. Thus the
Irishman requires for his support ten
or eleven pounds of potatoes daily,
which cont lin chihy starch, Of which
he Consumes superfluous quantity,
very little nitrogen and scarcely any
fat; hence he obtains when he can
some buttermilk or baoOn, or a her.
ring, to supply tho deficiency. The
Highlander, living mainly on oatmeal,
requires much smaller weight; this
grain contains not only the starch but
much nitrogen, and far amount Of
fat, although not quite sufficient tor
this purpose, which is usually sup
piled by adding milk or little bacon
to his diet. On the other hand, tho
man lives chiefly or largely on flesh
and eggs rs we'll as bread obtains pre-
cisely the same principles, but served
In concentrated form, and a weight
OF about two or three pounds OF such
food Is full equivalent to the Irish
mans ten or eleven pounds Of potatoes

The Labor Troubles,

The Offices of Justice Allison and Justice
King were the scene all day yesterday of
considerable excitement, and continued
gathering of the laborers who were en-
ployed by Randolph Ross, late contractor
on little over mile of railroad work at
Black Oak Ridge, on the X. & o.
Railroad. 1t was mentioned by us yes
terday that the men, failing to
receive their money on the 18th, as per
agreement, came in body and began to sue
out attachments against Mr.. Ross and j ohm
Ellison, who it was claimed had the
money.
The first trial yesterday before Justice
King was that of Patrick Dougherty
against Ross, in which judgment was
given for the amount of his claim. The
cases of J. q. Monday and Mr.. Sanderson
| were dismissed by the justice,
and Ross confessed judgment in
favor of the following in the amounts
mentioned: N. NJ. Casteel Solo, Robert
Howard, Sll05, Chas. Hammons, $l5.3
Red Wiler, $3.50, Wiley Weies $500
7, S. burden brought suit against Ross
and Ellison, and the case Was heard as to
Ellison before Justice Allison, but his de-
cision wss held up until to day.
1t seems, from Mr.. Ross statement of
the case, that he Was intending to throw
up the contract on the 18th inst. He Grew
| his estimate Monday Or Tuesday and re-
ceived in cash something over $3.50.
which he claims to have turned over to Mr..
| Ellison. as he had been accustomed to do.
Mr.. Ross says it was his intention to have
| the money paid to the hands, the paw
| roll being about $1,30). He says he left
word for the men to stop work at noon on
the 18th, and be ready to receive the
money. He then came to Knoxville.
On the other hand Ellison claims that
the money was due him from Ross. Eli
son has been, it seems, keeping store and
furnishing goods to the men, and shaving
their tickets and due bills between
pay days. Ellison claims to hold due bill $
on Ross for s.. 500 or S., 800 in all, and claims
the authority to appropriate the 81, 500
to his own credit, and not to the payment
of the men, IS Ross claims. ..
Thus the matter stands, and the end ia
| not yet. In the mean time the work stands
| idle.
