Another jacity can be treced in their expo gure to the sun’s light. To all of them God bas suid— “Let the e be lights in the trmame t of the heavens, to divide the day from the night, and let them have auns apd searons, and cays and years.” Even the sun iteelf is = ‘globe surrounded by light, as proved by the breaks in irs atmo.pbers or the spots seen upon them, Snow likewise uppears’ at ter, and partially disappears Clou is are seen, ments can be seen tu the a!turpheres wh on its disc.

Profesor Plateau’s inte- Testing experiment wa: hee exhibitei—a globe of oil suspended in a wixtore of *levhol and water, #0 as to be freed from Ube operation of gravetation. Tae oil assumed a globular form. and, by av axis pars-d through it, radia- tion was communicated. When this axis was turned it Decame flat a1 i'* poles avd dilated at ite equator, illus- trating the effects which had bees produced upon the planets. As the radiation became more rapid the poles approached, tillat las: a prriect ring was formed, like tseenon Saturn. By a greater accelsration th: mo ticn of the axis still more, the ring was broken aad the fragments collected in giobular forma, which tarned upon their axis and abou: the common centre. After this ex periment the lecturer, by means of a diagram, explained what would be the action incase a series of liquids of different specific gra itie could be suspended from the attraction of the carta. The deasest would occapy the centre, the lighter ones following in the order of thir density. By communiceting radiation to them the lightest film would leave the poles, collect at the equator, and might be thrown off fiom the mass, The next in the order cf des sity would folk thus, said the L-ctarer, we would expect in the planetary sysiem thaghe lightest ‘bodies would be the furth st from the dease: would be nearest tothe sun.

The Speaker said, that in # lecture delivered last season he at tempted to illustrate the peculiarities of the lecturing system, and the subject naturally led him to refer to ‘the audience, which was touched upon in a fe# sentencer, alibevgh it appeared rather a free and easy matter to speak upon. That the lecturer was the property of his sudience for an bour or two was inJisputadie; and if his face did not suit some they turned up their noses, While others indulged in a sleep; and all this the lecturer must ‘dear; but when it comes to his turn it is another qu tion; and here he hoped the audience woul i shake hands, like boxers before a set-to, and take all the knocks which might be administered in a friendly spirit. After various amusing illustrations of bis subject, the lecturer com meoced with the definitions of an audience:—Three made a college, and thre, jence—a maa, @ womar, and s boy.

The letters of our correspondents at Montevideo and Buenos Ayres, al- ready published, are of nive days later date. We extract, however, from the Argentine Packet of Octcber 1, a summary of the state of affairs at ] Montevideo, subsequent to the reactionary movement against President Giro and his government. The above journal says:—The successive accumu- lation cf choke damp his at last resulted in an ex- ace that bas driven President Giro aud the par- ws of Oribe aud Urquiza from office. Afier the scandalous part they acted during our late rebellion, aidwg and abetting the Provisional Director in every way and as openly thwarting the measures of de- | fence on the part of this capital, it would be too ouch for them to expect any sympathy in this quar- | terin the day of their misfortune, however much individuals may regret the inevitable calamities ap- parently awaiting that sister community. The reaction of September, 1853, in Montevideo, must be traced to the same causes, and may be aay by | the same considerations as that of the llth of Sep- tember, 1852, in this province, and follows a3 a necessary cousequence of the events that wok place at San Jose de Fiores ia the month of July last; and we cannot help thuking that the able ‘hand that poe and accom plished the discomfiture of Gen. Jrquiza may bave at least suggested this salutary and merited chastisement for his unblushing par- | tisans. In imitation of his friend and predesessor, Presi- dent Giro has retired but not resigned; and the omi- nous question of “legality,” is once more suspended over ihe heads of the unjortunate Orientals; backed, there is also reaton to suapect, by the influence of the French Legation, of waich Senor Giro was an inmate.

The notes discovered in Clark’s house are ail admirably executed, and are calcu/ated to deceive even good judges. The bills were found in different stages of their manufac- ture, and some of them were being submitted to the action of acids, probably for the purpose of having the colors fixed. Letters, memoranda, &c., found in the house, disclosed the fact ‘that the establisliment thus ferreted out has ex- tensive ramifications throughout this State and ths State of New York. Quantities of the notes were placed in packages and prepared for delivery. A namber of the rpurious billa were prepared so as to give them an old and worm appearance. From informa. ion in the possession of the police, there is but little doubt that the counterfeit bills on the Fanners’ and Merchants’ Bank of Somers, N.

Or an increase of tweaty per cent up to 30th Sept , and which the saree fall business of October and November will doubtless have raised to twenty-five or thirty per cent. This is an enormous increase. Much delay takes place in passing the locks, es- pocally between St. Catherine's and Thorold, owing to the throng of vessels, which are not unfrequently General Flores had lett at the head of a division, to watch and suppress any mutinous tendency that | might show iteelfia the country districts.
