A cnor lee.

The s'anchor icc" by which the
steamer City OF Boston was imprisoned
in the Thames River. at Norwicl, is one
OF the sirangest OF wintry phenomena.
II goes bv various names. West Of New
England it is known as "slusl ice, aud
abroad it is called ground ice.' 1t IS
not formed upon the surface OF water,
bnt collects on the beds OF streams.
This is the most remarkable thing about
it. Many theories have been advanced
to account for its formation. One scien-
fist claimed that it was the result OF ra'
diation of heat from the river bed, and
that it was deposited on the same prin-
ciple as dew. Another stoutly main
tanned that It was produced by little
spicuie of boar frost falling from the
atmosphere into the water.
The most acceptable hypothesis, how
ever, is that the whole body Of water in
which it is found is thoroughly chilled
by a mechanical action of the currents Of
the stream, and that the anchor ice then
naturally forms on the stones and other
rough bodies at the bottom. After this
general cooling of the water to TEN.
perature in the neighbcrhaod OF thirty
two degrees Fahrenheit, the anchor ice
will speedily coat a pole, for example,
that is lowered into the strean. The
nucleus having once been formed, the
small masses OF ice that cling by adj
hesion to the asperities Of the river bed
grow in size, and at length attain suf.
ficient buoysucy to loosen their fastenings
and rise to the surface. In doing this
they frequently tear up small stones and
clumps OF gravel.
The anchor ice is clearly crystalline in
structure, aud in the water resembles a
kind OF fungus or vegetable growth. At
times stream will be seen full Of little
masses Of anchor ice floating along near
or at the surface. Its consistency is
often very Eight, so that ifan attempt is
made to grasp in the hand it readily
mets and disappears. 1t is conhued
manly to swiftly running streams hav'
ing gravelly or stony beds, and it is
feature Of the winter that proves trouble
some chiefly to mill owners. 1t collects
on the head gates of canals and on the
racks at the entrances Of fumes, aud, if
it is allowed to pass into wheel pit, is
liable to stop the wheel, as it eifectuallS

The first distinction the eye makes in

their color. This IN the darker races IS
found to be black or very dark brown
dust, deposited on the lower layers, on
a ground the color OF old ivory. This
dust anatomists discover to be fine SCOT
or carbon deposit, and the point has a
specific interest for women in that it is
of a similar nature to the deposit which
colors the disfguring "blackheads. "
The received opinion that the black

the talIowy filing of the enlarged gland
