These are carefully put up in vials, and the latitude and longitude as they were taken, together with the depths of water, are marked on each rial. Lieut Brooks is stated to have declared it to be as easy to lay 8 chble in three as in two miles depth of water.
In neither case should the cable be allowed to bang perpendicularly, as by that means it has to bear the strain of two or more miles if the vessel has sufficient speed to keep the wire in a nearly horizontal line, it will sink gradually, and have but very little strain upon being the case, the depth of water is but little consequence. The exact direction of the submarine mountain, or mountain ridge, above mentioned, was not ascertained by Lieutenant Brooks. It was evidently from north to south, but as it was merely crossed, and.1 not sounded along its length, nothing further is known on the subject. Whig and Courier. Wheeler Lynde, Proprietors.

This has been defined to be, "sitting on a rock and sipping cold water." But there is a harder kind than this. It is where one may even sit on a downy couch, ill at ease, and drink his sparkling champagne as the heel-tap of a gluttonous repast, the appetite for which has been provoked only by a stronger stimulant. Between these two classes--the "poor way-faring man of grief," reduced to his stone seat and his cold- water beyerage, and the "rich man faring sumptuously every day" -comes in a middle class, but for the intoxicating cup the very bone and muscle of the country--the effect of whose inebiety is even more ruinously visible in their shattered frames, and disordered bueiness, and blighted fortunes, and the starvation and misery of their degraded families.
Let WORKING MEN, especially, beware of the fell destroyer. Let them see to it that they work it right: -that they do not "put an enemy into their mouth," not only "to steal away their brains," but the bread from their children's mouths, and peace and harmony from the domestic circle. If the rich man will be "joined to his idols," we can almost say, him alone Let the gout seize his feet, and delirium his and cholera morbus his body, and death the entire system. A blank in creation is thus caused, that may often be better filled by a thrifty operative -by a whole man; and the concentrated property of 8 wealthy individual is often scattered, profitably to community, amongst relatives and friends. But the hard- -working man's hands once disabled by disease and death, his capital is gone forever.
No effects, but a blighted memory and blasted family hopes follow the cause of the working man's ruin. Beware, then, the first step, and beware every step in the drunkard's downward progress! LIGHT IN A DARK PLACE. The Union represents, that the Whig Courier complains of its being often "obliged to seize upon something, or nothing. in order to eke out its editorial columns." Tte Union has, for once, some truth in this nutshell of theirs. It is however the latter branch of the alternative of which we principally complain.
The people sometimes expect us to seize upon the Union, and expose its nothingness as to argument, and its falsities as to fact -when, to touch such pitch at all, is to become one's-self defiled.As a substantial old farmer once said to 8 "weak and washy" opponent, whom he declined to answer in legislative wrenches one terribly to kick against nothing."

The annual report of the Land Agent, Barker, has been printed, containing substance of his quarterly, report made to Governor and has procured large map of the northern portion of the execated by Luther H. Eaton, of gor, and he is confident that it cannot fail meeting the expectation and wants of the lic.
The State line between Maine and Hampshire has been surveyed and marked, but the accounts have not yet been settled. The Land Agent the past season has the following townships and tracts to be veyed and lotted out for settlement, to No 5, range three; the balance of five; south half of 12, range four; and lots on 1, range two. Some few roads been located tor the -convenience of settlers, not only on the foregoing townships, but on range one; range two; 12 and 13 three; and 13, four. Under the "Resolves in relation to two," approved March 20, 1858, he employed Hon Stinchfield, who had previously plored the township on former resolve, direct and assist in setting off to George Smith, of Van Buren plantation, six thousand acres, which has accordingly been done metes and bounds; and the field notes plan of the same are embraced in the returns made off by Mr Alford, in the survey of township.

And it is believed that this information thus disseminated has had a salutary influence turning the attention of the community importance of developing the resources wilderness lands, where the foundation good farms, and desirable homes, may be tained "without money," and aimost "withprice."

Fortylots have been conveyed the past year unthe Treaty of Washington, averaging from one hundred acres per lot. The schedules of lands sold, do not show actual amount taken up for settlement, custom which has long prevailed of enterupon lots before making application at the Land office, has not, as Jet, been wholly abandoned. Attention is called to nece-sity of further legislation to protect any all of the public lands being unlawfully entered upon, before they are lotted, and open the market, thereby exposing the timber, rendering the survey of the land more laperplexing, -to say nothing of the conflicting claims which are liable to arise by possessions being thus prematurely made, and the evil in future.
The Eaton and Plymouth grants are found excellent tracts 10r farming, and a puror exchange is desirable, as it would essentially enhance the settlement of that porof the State to which the current of emiis now so strongly tending. Under the present "settling laws," the of course, expect to derive any present pecuniary benefit from the purchase of these -the only advantage being to promote settlement of her wilderness lands, and in way increase the wealth and prosperity of citizens, by opening fields and channels of to the strong-handed, and homes to the destitute.

The protection of these lands, intersperced a8 they are, over an extent of more than ten thousand square miles, requires constant vigilence, and is attended with much trouble and expense. In townships which have been surveyed for settlement, there are certain mile sections that are unfit for settling purposes, the timber upon which is exposed to fires and it would be for the interest of the State to authorize the sale of these sections for cash, as well as certain lots in the County of Aroostook, togetber with the improvements thereon, which were formerly mortgaged to the S.ate, and the mortgages subsequently foreclosed by the State Treasurer.

We find in an English paper an account of the death of a father from grief.
His boy, aged eight years, was accused on a charge stealing 8 sovereign. Bail was refused, and the lad W88 sent to prison. The father, on parting with his child, took the matter so deeply to heart that went home and never again looked up.

Mr Meriam says that persons having limbs frozen by cold, should immerse the frozen limb in cold water, and retain it in that position until the ache has ceased, and no unpleasant consequences will result to the limb from the frost. Persons chilled with cold should drink feely water, and take a cold water bath if practicable.
Soft snow will extract frost if applied as a poultice to frosted flesh, while the frost is still stopping. The same remedy to 8 person struck by lightning is required as when prostrated by cold. The Chicago Times says prayer meetings bave been instituted in the Ulster County jail, with a view to the conversion of the prisoners.
