TilIl DIVINING IMOD.
rhe art of dicovering water courses un
ler the tsurface ol the carth by means of a
;rcen rod or wand newly cut from peach.
iazle or cherry tree, has been known in
urope for several years. it is said the
iscovery was made in Germany. but by
vhom is uncertain. Until a very late pe
iod it has been considered an imposture,
nd ranked with the arts of magicians and
ther vain pretenders to mysterious Pow
rs. This opinion of t6e power of "divin
mg rod," or " magic wand," as .aqbe
etion of the'rod is wholly imperceptible,
rhilst in others the attraction of the wa
er, especially if it be near the surface and
he vein large, is surprisingly real. When
he wand is or a brittle nature the attrac
ive power is so forcible as frequently to
freak it.
Fron numerous experiments made in
rancc, -ince thn ctmmtencement of the
iresent centurv, liv Tlouveiel and other
tn of sciene , the claims of thle divining
oid are found to rest upon well kno nti ma
erial powers. The art of findmug water

iiscs to be of great utility to our country.
