Perhaps no part of the Kronborg fort

interest than that which lies UNDER

elers is that of the casemates lying i'm
mediately below the basement story of

under the castles entire extent, are said
to have frequently accommodated in the

as dazzling spot against surrounding

only to heighten the intense gloom of

roof extended the hardened limy secre-

GEOLOGICAL POINTS.
Surprising Features which . Birds Eye,

Surprlsing Features which . Birds Eyej
View OF the Earth Would Disclose.
u If we imagine an observer contem-
plating the earth from convenient
distance In space and scrutinizing its
features as it rolls before him, we may
supposed him to be struck with the fact
that eleven-sixteenths Of its surface a"e
covered with water, and that the land
Is 80 equally distributed that from one
point OF view he would see a hemisphere
almost exclusively oceanic, while nearly
the Whole of the dry land is gathered in
the opposite hemisphere. He might
observe that the great oceanic area oil
the Pacific and Antartic Oceans is dot
ted with islands--like a shallow pool
with stones rising above its surface-as
if its general depth were small in COM
parlson with its area. He might also
notice that mass or belt of land sur.
rounds each pole, and that the northern
ring sends off to the southwark three
vast tongues of land and of mountain
chains. terminating respectively in
South America, South Africa and Aus
tralia, toward which feebler and insular
processes are given off by the Antartic
continental mass. This, as some geo.
graphers have observed. gives a rudely
three-ribbed aspect to the earth, though
two Of the three ribs are crowded to-
gether and form the Europ-Asian mass
or double continent, while the third is
isolated in the single continent of
America. He might also observe that
the northern girdle is cut
across, SO that the Atlantic
opens by wide space into the Arctic
Sea, while the Pacific is contracted to-
ward the north, but continent with the
Antartc Ocean. The Atlantic is also
relatively deeper and less numbered
with islands than the Pacific, which has
the higher ridges near its shores, con-
stituting what some visitors to the Pa
cific coast of America have not inaptly
called the "back of the world" while
the wider slopes face the narrower
ocean, into which for this reason the
greater part OF the drainage of the land
Is poured. The Pacific and Atlantic,
though both depressions or Hatteninga
of the earth. are different in age, char.
acter and conditions; and the Atlantic,
though the smaller, is the older, and
from the geological point of view, in
some respects, the more important oi
the two. II our imaginary observer
had the means of knowing any thing oi
the rock formations of the continent
he would notice that those bounding the
North Atlantic are in general of great
age, some belonging to the Laurentie
system. On the other hand, he would
see that many of the mountain ranges
along the Pacific are comparatively
new, and that modern ingenious actor
occurs in connection with them. Thu.
he might be led to believe that the At
lantic, though comparatively narrow

A couple of smart Alecks who had
