It is admitted that the salts, of tho sea comas from the ! ?' ami that they consr' of the soluble matt rains wash ont from the fields, and which the ri vera bear to the ocean. The waters of tho Mississippi and the Amazon discharge immense quantities of this soluable matter. This matter cannot be evaporated, and as die rivers cease pouring in fresh supplies of it, it is argued that the sea must be continually growiug more salt; and such, perhaps, would be tlxe case were it not -these microscopic animals are constantly at work extracting this matter from the sea water, and depositing, it in the form of shell at the bottom of the ocean. Thus, says | Lieut. Maury, 'the oceau is presented as a vast cheinieal bath, in which the solid parts of the earth are washed, filtered and pflpipi tilted again as solid matter, but m a new form, and with fresh properttee.?Boston Journa?} ^ V The Do-Nothinga.

A man without money is a body withou life?a walking shadow?a spectre that ai frights. His look is doleful, his con versa tion is languid and heavy.

Hever Treat Religion Lightly. Tinprens our mind with a reverance for a that# sacred. Let not wantonness of rout! ful spirits, nor comp^fece with the mtenc perate mirth of others, ever betray you int profane sallies. Besides the guilt that i thereby incurred, nothing gives a more od ous appearance of petulance and presumj tion to youth than the reflection of trCatin religion with levity. Instead of being an e^ idonce of superior understanding it Chsoovei a pert and shallow mind, which, ram of tb first smatterings of knowledge, presumes t make light of what the best of mankind rt im, At the same time you are not to in jjgine that when exorted to be religious yo are|called upon to be' more formal and ?b eon* iu your manners than others of the sam yeans or to erect yourself** into snpcrciloi reprovers of those around.

A dandv, ripe for a scrape, tipped nods and winks at all around, 'a^ow m have some fun; HI frighten the greenhorn." He jurajped ashore with a long drawn Bowie knife, brandished it in tLe fhee of the "green 'mi," exclaiming? "How I'll punish you?I've been looking for you a week." The fellow stared stupidly at the assailant ; he evidently had not sense enough to be scared j but as the Bowie knite came near his face, one of his huge fists suddenly vacated his pocket, ana fell hard and heavy between the dandy's eyes, and the poor fellow was flonndering in the Ohio.
