AN EARTHQUAKE TUEoRY.-A well-known
young physician, of Charleston, said yes.
terday that he thought he could suggest theory
which might account for the present disturb.
ance. He said:
scientifically as we'll as supersttiousIy the
earth is supposed to be at its centre a molten
mass, the temperature being gradually lowered
as we approach the surface where vegetable and
animal life are sustained. This, we have reason
TO believe, from the sinking Of Artesian wells.
From depth Of two or three thousand feet, we
are euabled TO bring boiling water to the surface.
Some one, scientist, believe, has said that
the earth crust is, relatively speaking, Us thin
MS the shell of an egg. This comparison may be
quite hyperbolical. 1t may be in thickness five
hundred or three thousand miles for all that is
or can be positively known. But to whatever
depth we have 80 far reached we have always
found water. In fact water seems to penetrate
every portion Of the earths crust May it not
be that from the constant burning in the bowels
Of the earth that fire at times comes in actual
contact with immense bodies of water, the
chemical action producing steam, which must
hnd vent, and hence the conclusion on the
earth's surface.-Nc,rs and Courier.
