The Earth's Insides.

Is the earth made up Of three con-
centric spheresf A physician says that
such Is the case. The solid nucleus he
supposes to be between 5000 and 1000
miles In diameter, and this Is surround
ed by liquid substratum, outside OF
which Is the crust variously estimat-
ed at TO to 200 miles In thickness
More than two centuries ago a similar
theory, including the slow rotation OF
the inner solid sphere on a different
axis from that Of the entire globe, was
held by DR.. Edmund HALEY to account
for the changes in the earth's magnet
ism. The axis of the nucleus was
thought to have been originally that OF
the entire globe, and to the change Of
Its course was attributed the deluge>
The earth's internal heat, 1t Is now
pointed out, may be accounted for by
the friction Of the different rotating
bodies.

Piracy Is no new thing in the waters
around Hongkong. AS long ago as the
thirteenth century the island Of Hong
kong was piratical stronghold. and
for centuries the Chinese government
was unable to drive the sea robbers
out All craft passing what is now
Hongaong harbor were compelled &c
pay tribute. The higher elevations Of
the island served as lookout stations
and Ito boat that approached was per
mitted to leave until 1t had paid toll.

cut off by the late legislature restricting the sale

These only emphasize the wisdom of the legislature
