Danger of Another Deluge -The North

Revolutions de /’ Atmosphere et dc la J/er,” bv
Ideut. Juliet, a distinguished officer in the
b reach navy. The greater part of the book is
devoted to a general description of Lieut.
Maury s sjsjendid theory of currents and winds, i
by whichjne explains the recurrence of storms
and other meteorological phenomena; but what ,
ha^ chiefly attracted our attention is anew
ory outlie inevitable periodica] return of a cat- ;
adysm%imilar to that known under the name of j
tne I niversal Deluge, a subject whic*h®*lhe au
treaty with singular lucidity, and yf which
vve®will here endeavor to give an outline : 8
Ihe author starts from pertain facts, some of
which are generally known, viz: 1. That the is
othermal lines (lines where the same degree of
Warmth is oltferved globe) of the high
> est temperature are unequally distributed be
tween the northern and fbuthern hemispheres,
ihe*pace they occupy in the former being about
doubly of that which •south of the
equator, the soifthern.hemisphere is consid
crably*coLder,%s{?bdally towards the pole, than
the northern one the
|)f ice at the Antarctic pole is ufucbgmore cun
si do rabble fhan at the ©northern, b® That the
eaflhqierfynns the shortest portion of its revo
lution, viz g;,that%carefl©to the perihelion, much
more rapidly diuri the other, that period
the year wdiifh comprises ©the autumn and
winder of northern hemisphere. Hence it
follows tjpt th.e winter of the latter is shorty
(by about eight days) than tlufltof the souih
ern. and this Win
ter, when the earth is furthest from sie sun, |
Uft-t the solar must lose in strength what
gain in dunnion. To this cau*3e of dimi
nution of temperature must be added the loss
|of radiation it will then be easv®
to perceive the reason of the difference of tem
perature betweeiAhe two hemispheres. Obser
vation has shown tharthe quantity of
caloric lost at the south pole in the ciiurse of a
year is equal surplus absorbed at the
north pole.ii®Now let us, with the autho®
tally represent to ourselves the earth at the mo
*’ merit of its creation, when its wholg surface
i was covered with water, and%ts centregjf grav
ity coincided with its geometrical centre. Prom
j that moment its around the sun
: menced, and all these causes which have led to*
! tls inequality between tho two
! began to operate. @
In the course of a few Centura b the ico at i
I the South pole became in consequence heavier
| than thatgaccumulutcd at the North pole, and j
the centre of gravity was dispatched south-:
wards; mathematicians, in fact, state dis- j
tance betaveen the latter and the geometrical
centre to
i circumstances, what cou'd the liquid sifi-face of
! the globe do but flow southward, leaviifj| all th.e |
Continent we familiar with ? J
®llere M. Julian observes that all the regions of
| the southern hemisphere bear unmistakable
marks of submersion ® that America, Africa
and India, in points, all turned towards the
@ South the islands of the southern©
regions have the appearance of the summits of
mountain ranges, and that Lieut. Almjry’f:
soundings shoes’ that the coasts on that side all
descend abruptly into the sea. He further i
states the curious that in going from tho
North to South pole at every pfballel the
ratio of the of land to that of the sea
diminishes regularly and progressively.

Defence of Reserved People.
We have not been in the habit of admiring
this class of our fellow beings; but it is as well
! to hear what they have to say on the other side.
A writer in Frazer's Magazine thus gives thorn
! the preference'; “The 1 obit of reserve lias moat
its origin iu a disbelief in sympathy, in
the existence of some qualities or some emo
tioinfwith which those who are classed as fel
low-creatures are not likely to have any fellow
feeling. There is iu such characters, it may
be. a sensibility, fine and true, that sinks itself
deep; too delicate to mix with vulgar streams.
If you would taste the purity of this water, you
must dig laboriously for it. There is it may be,
a passionate power, fervent and concentrated;
too to dribble out; too strong to dissipate
itselt in petty phrases and agreeable expres
sions ot sentiment; or, perhaps, an intelligence
high and extended, to which views are granted
jn finitely beyond the horizon of'the general
eye. $ * Thereserved man, therefore, isMt
object of dislike and distrust, but he is also a
subject of interest. He repels confidence, but
he excites attention. Is it not agreeable from
a high window to survey the movements of a
crowd below? —danciug, laughing, leaping,
fighting, crying, kissing—to analyse their agi
tations —to smile at their disturbances— to be
yourself secure and still —a looker-on who is not
looked at—to be audience to a drama, and to
the actor who cannot criticise you?
“This is the privilege of the reserved man.
He conceals his emotions, he.buries his feelings-;
he masks his passions He controls his features;
every muscle is under his command : there is rio
such thing with him as :i°spontaneoua move
ment. He revels in a continual victory. He
Lathes curiosity, he defeats expectation, he de
stroys hope. He wears his shroud before h‘e is 1
in the tomb. The inquisitive crowd will pluck
at it, hut will draw back shivering when they
feel how cold it is. O
“They wonder, they fear, they admire—and
they admire with good reason. The power of
concealment is in itself worthy of admiration;
the man who wears so strong an armor must
needg be a strong man, and it is the conscious
ness of a valuable possesion that suggest* the
necessity for a detense.”
