Mr. Carton, the Americanlethnogra-,
phist, whose extensive travels have
led 'leira through the wildest and ru-
dest et enery of America, has turned
his attention. for several years past
from the • Indians to rocks, and has
made in these studies voyages to
South America, to the Rocky Moun-
tains, the Andes -and the Antilles, the
result of which he is preparing to pub -
lista., in a work entitled "he Lifted and.
ir
Subsided Rouks of Amer ca, with the
Influences on the Oce nic, Atmos-
phere and land Ourrents." And one
of the striking features of . this book
Seems to be , to quote- his - own words,
."the discovery of ,a river under the
Rooky Mountains many times wider

waters of melting snows, of rains, of

and lakes which are on their way to
the Ocean level.
.Thio igh the vast and heated vaults
underneath the Andes, I contemplated
a similar river, running from the tbila
tieth degree of south latitude t ) the
north, and carryiag its overflowing
waters also to the Caribbean Sea.
' The Antilles, now per'.-„iaily sunk in
the ocean, are but a chain of mountain
tops which,, six thousand years ego,
*stood up in their grandeur a part, and
probably the glory of the Andes, anct
at that date the two mighty submon-
tagne rivers, meeting and debouching
together into the ocean, est or north
of the Autilles, combined with extra -
ordinal' ST volcanic influences, un.dermin-
ed the Antilles chain, which went down

Indian traditions, Which I have gather-

unimpeachable records on the rocks

In this tremendous catastrophe, pro

splendid Aztee cities, sank, and since

the consta.nt overflow of their vast cis-

with clear blue waters, heated by the
volcanic furnaces they have passed.

is desired I should plant on a light,
warm soil, with a sour -them or easterly

not too highly Immured in the hill, or
there will be more vines, than fruit:
- Put out the piants as soon as warM
enough, and no danger from frosts, say
15th to 20th of May, three and one

early cultivation can all be done with 'a

to -within five rods of the other end and
step ;i now- back harro-w as usual the re-
quired width; and then turn_ a square
corner at the end, observing to have the

RYE MEAL TOR BEES. In localities
where willowhazel, elni and soft map-
le abound, bees find natural pollen al-
most as soon as they can fly in the
spring. ,..: Li other places it is -of great
advantage to place rye meal in shallow
-vessels near the bees every pleasant
clay; as a substitute for pollen. They
gather it eagerly, and rear brood much_
earlier for having it. If no stream or
brook is near your bees, pr 'de them
with water in some way, he .need it
spec*ally in spring, and maity arelost if
they go far to obtain. it. 1
