A SENSATIONAL DEVICE.

The priest of Ednicatti, a large
town in Sicily, hit upon very sem
sational device the other day for
making his public ministrations at
tractive. Finding a difficulty in
bringing home to the minds of his
congregation the personal existence
of their ghostly enemy-defined,
by-the-by, years ago by Windsor
schoolboy as "Priuce Albert"--he
caused young man to appear be-
side him in the pulpit, with his face
BACKED, two large horns on his
head, and tail from which crackers
went off at intervals. The success
of the experiment as to the main
point was complete, but its effect
was to clear the church by general
stampede, in which women and chill
dren were much injured. The re-
verend gentleman meant well no
doubt, but it must be admitted
showed more zeal than judgment.
1t was too much of a surprise to his
flock: he should have begun with
somebody more similar, and yet
who would have carried out his idea.
such as the lawyer of the town,
| Melbourne Argus.

REnENT PRlGRESs IN SCIENCE.

In an article in Scribner's Month
ly for February, Prof. n. S. Shaler,
of Harvard University, states the
most modern and satisfactory eX-
PLANTATION OF how volcanoes exist and
act, in an exceedingly lucid way.
He first points out that all active
volcanoes are along the edges of the
occans( chiefly the Pacilic), and that
the few volcanoes inland show no
signs of activity since early geologi-
cal eras. 1t was long ago suggested
that this fact indicated necessary
connection between the effects
brought about by large bodies
water and volcanic explosions.
Various theories in regard TO the
way sea-water gained access to the
heated interior of the globe, and
there became converted into steam,
forming the propulslve force of vol
canic eruptions, have been advanced,
but they are all Objectionable in so
far as they suppose the sea-water or
surface water finds its way down.
At least this is Professor Shaler's
opinion, and his opinion is entitled
to high weight, though there are
other students who still believe that
this explanation is true or partly
true in many cases. Professor
Shaler believes, however, that while
superheatcd steam is undoubtedly
the propulsive agent in an eruption,
the water for this steam exists in
sufficient quantity in the rocks laid
down on the floor of the ocean (for
the most part near its edge), which
are never so compact but that from
to 10 per cent Of their mass con-
| sists of water held between their
particles. The rocks laid down in
early ages, inclosing this quantity
of saline water, have been buried 10y
the dispositions since to a depth of
many thousands of feet, and, blan-
keted by the new layers on the top,
have received heat (Which had little
means of escape) from the hot core
of the globe until their temperature
is thousands of degrees above the
boiling point of water. The water
contained in these rocks is not only
vaporized, bnt superhealed, and
