Origin Of sard.

-
& It is calculated that nine-tenths of
the coasts Of the world are covered
with sand. What is the origin Of
this sand and to what circumstances
is it's abundance due? Men Of sci
sence says the New York Sun, have
explained this in part by saying that
it is due to the erosive effect Of the
waves upon the rocks, but it is gen
orally admitted that this is not suf-
ficient to account for the vast quaint
ity Of sand that borders our beaches,
Undoub btedly very considerable por-
tion represents the material carried
to and toward the ocean by the
storms and glaciers of the ice age.
