From them we learn that our world is made up of coitiparativelv few substances, so few, indeed, tliat we are struck with all wondter and astonish ment, Yrhen we cougider the innumerubla variety of form and character into which those elements, are capable oi being moulded. We have all the animate creation, the plants, the animals; wo leave the rocks, the earth, the air, and water, in their endless variety ; and yet the substances of which they are composed do not exceed sixty.? On closer examination our wonder increases, as we learn that of these elements no less than forty-six are metals, in the ordinary sense of the word; five n/e gaseous-bodies like the air?which, indeed, consists, of two gassCs out ot these five ; and the remainder are substances of an intermediate character, of which sulpher and charcoal arc the types. Therefore everything that we can see or touch pertaining to our world is composed of one, two, or more of these elements. We know of no one substance that contains more than six of these elements ; and in a general way there are rarely more than two or three blended together to produce one result. Titus, the white, of an egg is made of six elements. These three materials are the types of the portions ot the world to which they belong.? Thnnirl. Oil A slnnn I'l-nm nnAtkrvi. _ " "fcj ?
