Underground Mountatn..

A very curious result of recent op-
erations by the trigometrical survey
in India is the conclusion, stated by
Maj. Burrard, that there is in the mid
die of India an underground, or buried,
mountain range, a thousand miles in
length. and lying about parallel with
the chain of the Himalayas. This con-
clusion is based on the singularities
of the local attraction of gravitation
in central India, the plumb-line being
detected southwark on the north side
of the supposed subterranean chain
and northward on the south side,
leading to the inference that a great
elongated mass of rock of excessive
density underlies the surface of the
earth between the two sets of obsery-
ing stations.-Youth's Companion.
