vowed q vow In the forest solitudes
that would confess His aid before
men. Silence, as Of death, was round
about me: 1t was midnight / was

fatigue, and wan with anxiety for my
white and black companions, whose
fate was mystery. In this physical
and mental distress ! besought God

Wonders Of The Deep.

The sea occupies three-fifths OF the
surface of the earth, says the Ocean.
At the depth OF about $500 feet waves
are not felt. The temperature Is the
same, varying only a trifle from the
ice Of the pole 10 the burning sun OF
the equator. A mile down the water
has pressure of over a ton 10 the
square inch. IL box 6 feet wide
were filled with sea water and allowed
10 evaporate under the sun, there
would be two inches OF salt left on
the bottom. Taking the average
depth Of the ocean TO be three miles,
there would be layer of pure salt
$50 feet thick on the bed OF the Allan
tie. The water is colder at the bot
tom than at the surface. In the
many bays on the coast OF Norway
the water often freezes al the bottom
before it does above. Waves are
very deceptive.
To look at them in storm one
would think the water travelled. The
water stays in the same place, but
the motion goes on. Sometimes III
storms these waves are 40 feet high,
and travel 80 miles an hour-more
than twice as fast as the swiftest
steamship. The distance from valley
TO valley is generally fifteen times
the height. hence wave hve feet
high will extend over 75 feet OF water.
The force OF the sea dashing on Beli
Rock is said TO be Il tons for each
square yard Evaporation Is
wonderful power in drawing the wa
ter from the sea. Every year layer
OF the entire sea, IL feet thick, Is
taken up into the clouds. The winds
bear their burden into the land, aud
the water comes down in rain upon
the fields. TO flow back at last through
rivers The depth OF the sea presents
an interesting problem. II the At
lantic were lowered from 6,564 feet,
the distance from shore 10 shore
would be half as great, 1000 miles.
II lowered little more than three
miles. say 10. $50 feet, there would be
road OF dry land from Newfoundland
10 Ireland This is the plain on which
the great Atlantic cables were laid.
The Mediterranean is comparatively
shallow.
A drying up OF 600 feet would leave
three different seas, and Africa would
be ioined with Italy. The British
channel is moro like n pond, which
accounts for it's choppy waves IL
has been found difficult TO get the
correct soundings OF the Atlantic. a
midshipman OF the navy overcame
the difficulty, and shot weighing ~
pounds carries down the line. a hole
is bored through the sinker, through
which rod OF iron is passed, moving
easily back and forth. In the end OF
the bar a cup II dug out, and the in
side coated with lard. The bar Is
made fast TO the liue, which extends
below the ball, touches the earth, the
sling unhooks and the shot slides
off. The lard in the end OF the bar
holds some OF the sand, or whatever
may be on the bottom, and n drop
shuts over the cup to keep the water
from washing the sand out. When
the ground Is reached shock Is felt,
as IL an electric current had passed
through the line.

IN VAIN.

A bark, one radiant summer day,
Sailed joyfully out on placid sea;
Lightly it danced on its gladsome way,
Like thing of life so bright and free.
The sun shone bright in the azure sky,
Soft, fleecy clouds drifted calmly by;
The blue waves rippled and murmured low
Ofreace and rest in their ceaseless flow;
And the bark sailed on.
A watcher stood on the lonely shore,
And smiled through the thars while she
waved farewell
To the gallant craft, as from her it bore
one who was deaier than words could tell
Still her sad eyes watched till sail and spar
Were lost beyond the horizons bar;
Then she turned with a sigh TO the world
again,
While her poor heart throbbed with its anx-
ious pain,
And the bark sailed on.
The sad waves grieved in the autumn gale,
And tossed their crests meath the wintry
skies;
But the gleam OF the white returning sail
Gladdened never the watchers eyes.
And the summer sun looked brightly down
On the slcping roofs of the seaport town;
But the treacherous sea no token gave
Ofthe sailors fate, or the restless grave
Where the bark went down.

Chinese Wisdom.

Forbearance Is attended with profit.
The straightest trees are the first
felled
Life is a journey, aud death re-
turn home.
Causeless anger resembles waves
without wind.
1t is better to suffer an injury than
TO commit one.
The loftiest building arises from
small accretions.
A discontented man is like snake
who would swallow an elephant.
To persecute the unfortunate II like
throwing stones on one fallen into n
well.
II men will have no care for the
future they will soon have sorrow for
the past.
Kind feeling may be paid with kind
feeling but debts must be paid with
hard cash.
Hear both sides and all will be
clear; hear but one and you will still
be in the dark.
While silent consider your own
faults, and while speaking spare
those OF others.
The house wherein learning
abounds will rise that IN which
pleasure prevails will fall.
Those above should not opprers
those below, nor those below en-
croach on those above.
The people are the roots OF the
State IL the roots are fiourisbing the
State will endure.
The wisest must In a thousand
times be once mistaken; the most
foolish In a thousand times must be
once right.
To be fully fed and warmly clothed,
and TO dwell at ense, without learn
ing, is little better than a bestial
state.
When paths are constantly trodden
they are kept clean, but when aban-
doned the weeds choke them up; 70
weeds choke the mind Ira the absence
Of employment.
