Marsh.of Yale Cllege, has gwen an Interesting account of the metamor- d phLosis of some peculiar reptiles which he obtaioned of in the liccay Mouunins during the paust usmner. The animals were caught in Lake Come, a small be bracki.h sheet of water near the Pacsflic Bailroad, a and about seven thouvand feet above the sea. They are known is that region as the ' fish with he leg," ed by naturalists have hiherto been placed at in the genus •-rtden, and coniered closely re- w lased to the axuou from the table-lands of of Mexico. On bringing the spceimeas to the warmer cli- a. mate of boew Haven, one of them coon began to in undergo a remarkabhe change. Dart spots ap- of peared on the aides and finally extended over the rest of the body. The afins on the back and tall -e and external glills gradually disappeared, and the Ii animal came freqently to the earface of the water off for air. The body aimo diminished in size; the re. head chnged in form. and the eyes became more p* prominent. The mooth and tongue became much Isager, ad the teeth changed in position. tl- buriLog thse alterations the almMl made fre- is quent eforts to quit the water, and at last eoeaped he as a rue slamsnder, represeating a diffrest genus and even tfealy ofreptile from that of its original couditiou. tubsequently everal other speciemse underwent the mane metamorphosis. during which various ezperlmests showed that the rapidity of the change was gratly afected - by varialioas in light amd tompeatsre, the indi- ad vtduals mosot fnavored i theseu respects having passed thruegh the eatire tr aartubion is about rc, Whether thin speeei ever heagesI la Lke r- Como and In othr tiear elevaed regios is ou- of certsn; hbat that breead in h edone stante, lke the Meeiaa aueloti. theme moe little dobt.

YIE•TRDAY, Fon THs FIrasT TIMI, the maps and plans for the portion of the New Orleans, Mobile and Chattanooga Railroad to be constructed be- tween this city and Moble were exhibited at the office of the company, in Gallier Court, for the benefit of those who may desire to make propo- sals for contracts prior to the 20th prox. Iestirous of giving the public some information relative to this long talked of enterprise, the reporter for the Casorariw was among the visitors, and gained much interesting information concerning the road. A map sixteen feet long, representing the New Orleans division of the road, (i. e., from here to Mobile.) and drawn upon a scale of 4000 feet to the inch, is exhibited, and affords in one glance a comprehensive view of the region lying between the two points, includg the marshes, the Itigo- lets, the asatring place villages, the oyster and sand banks, and the piny woods beyond Pseca- goula, where turpentine orchards do abound. lIv a bee line Mobile las disteant Irom na 132 mle--by the propose, d line of the road 1;d miles, mtna-uring from the loot of St. Joseph street to Dauophine Wsy. From this city to the Rigolets, an u nbankmentabout six feet high will be thrown up by dredging machines for the track, the exca vation forming upon one side of the track, a canal useful for dannage, sad which will be about twenty five feet wide. The company have, we learn, e belt of about two hunded feet in widt l h along there marshes. At Chef Menteur there is to be a bridge of 770 feet, at Lake Catherine a trestle work if 2600 feet. The great bridge at the ligolelts willi be 3fi00 feet long, with a draw of 11:0 test. The sections of the road are nuom- bered fri :, one to thirty one. begiinlog from this end of tl.e line. January 1l70 is to be the fua- tliest time allowed for the completion of any of the contralts.

The child's injuries are said to be of a fatal charac- ter. ___ -- -- -- - - One eass, wnesa. BY THE FAT N00KTRIBTOR. There was a funny littl epode on the car that helped to arouse us. At Montana a young man and a young woman came on board of the sleep- ing car, and the former said: "See here, Mr. Conductor, I want one of your best bunks for this young woman and one for myaplf individo. ally. One will do for as when wegit to the Blnff., hey, Marer ? (a playful and afectionate poke at "Merger" with his elbow, to which she-replies, "uow. John. quit!") for you see we're go n' to sit married at Marler's omele's when we git there. We might 'a been married at Montoeny, bat we took a habit to wait 'till we got to the BlaSt, bein as Marier's uncle is a minister, av they charge a gol' fired price for hitchis folks at Montanny." Maria was seskned to one of the "best bunks," and .John was given one not far away. After a time the inmates of the car were all stowed away in their berths to go through the inevitable alter- nations of sweltering and Ireesing. During a stoppage of th tre tal at one station the voice of John was heard, raised in pleading accents, all uncouscious that the trasin had stopped, and that toes which the noise of the rattling whetls had drowned while the cars were moving, could be distinctly beard by all when they had stopped. " Now. Ma-ri, you might give a feller js' one kiss." SJohn, yeou quit, or I'U git rihbt out here and hoof it back to Montanny in the mow storm." " Only one little kiss, Marier, and I'll go; hope to dle'i I don't." Jc hn -" Just at that iateresting moment a gray head protruded from a oerth at the other end of the car, and an old man cried olt so that all could bear: "Marier. for God's sake give John one kiss, so that we can go to sleep some time to- night." It is needless to remark that a peal of laugh- ter rang from one end of the car to the other, under cover of which John slunk back to the solitary seclusion of his " bunk," leaving Maria to the undisturbed possession of her marriage license,' which she interpreted to permit no license to John until accompanied by the proper certificate. And Marier was right. A California correspondent of the New York Jonrnal of Commerce thus compares the Falls of Niagara and Yo-Semite: The Falls of Niagara and the fallsof Yo-Semite, in California. are objectaalmost beyond the power of Suite comprehensaon. The contemplative ob- server surveys " The hell of wats where tbhe hwl and bles ua tbol in aend ore trtar.' and with each sneceeding view irnahled to form a more definite conception as to the volume and power of the tremendous cataract. In respect to height Niagara dwindles to instgnificance con- trasted with the fearful plunge of two thousand six hundred feet at Yo-Semite--sixteen hundred feet of this descent unbroken-and, as to volume, the talls in Californla are probably quite as im- pressive, if viewed near at hand. There is this dtllerence, however: that one I4 thelong feathery flight of an arrow, or as the plunge of a roolte through the heavens, whereas at Niagara a pon. derous mass is thrown over the precipice, and at once strikes below. One is light, aerial, beauti tul. but at the same time the eternal roar that echoes among the cliffs, the voloumesof vapory in- cenase perpetually ascending, indicate the presence of a restless power. The other is overwhelm. ingly terrible. (oe is the firing of a rifle at a dis- tant matk : the other the discharge of a mortar a snort range. I think that Niagara suffers in the comparison. It is something from which human nature recoils with a sense of dread, whilst Yo- Semite fills the mind with astonishment andrap- lutre. BaaRT ox to idTHlE CHARTER OAS.-Boston is celebrated for its noonuent to the lamented Mr. lurher Hill. Providence for Roger WiIams, Philadelhia for its butter and qVuoakers, and Hart ford, as we now learn from the excellent Mr. Twain (Mark) for its charter oak. Mr. T. hsa vie- ited Hattlord. He saw the oak. Likewse he heard it spoken of. He says: I went il over Hartford with s'oltizen whose ancestors came over with the pilgrims in the Quher Citly- in the Msaflower I should say-and be showed me eal the bhsturic relies of BHartford. te showed me a beautfuolly earved chair in the benate chamnoer where the bewiggled and aw- fully homely old time governors o teoo commnon- wealth flown ftop their canvs overhbead. "Made from charter oan." he said. I gazed upon it with inexpreoible solitude. He showed me ansoother caved chauir in the House. "Chartler oak." he saud. I gazed aganm aith interest. Then he looked at tihe rua y, -tained and famousM old charter, and Inre ntily I tlirrod to tgove away. But he sol enrly drew me back a:td pointed to the rusee: " chaotr oak." he said. F worshiped. We went don to Wa.worthb's .\thenoizn. and I wanted to lo.k at the pictures; but he conveysed me slently to a corner, and pointed to a log redey saped somewhat like a ehair, and whispered ' charuter k.'" I exhibited the accustomed reverence. He showed me a walking stick. ieedle caoe, a dog collar, a three leggted stool a hoo'jack, a duner tab e. a ten pm alley, a toothpick- I interiopied him and said, "Never mind-we'll butrch the whole lumber yard, and ciall it--" * C•rter Oak." he said. " W ii." i aoid, " now let us go and see some Cbarter Oak for a change." ' I nt ant that for a i.ke: bit how was he to koow that. being a straiger ie took me around aid showed me Charter Oak enough to hbeld a pla•k road from here to Great Salt Lake City. It ii a shame to confess it, but I began to get a little weary of ('harter Oak finally; and when he invi. 'ttd me to go nome with him so tea. it tied me with s blpiaed sense of relief. He introdu•ed me t, his wile, sad they left me alone a moment to ause n yself with the little boy. I said, in a grave, pateiaal way, " My son, what is your name ?" And be said. " Cbharter Oak Johneon." Tha was suofmcient for a semm ve nature like mite. I departed out of the mnsion withoet another word. The three and five cent piees, it is state , have recefrved the coudemantlon of the aethorities at WashLngton, sad a reeommendarties will be made in the report of the United Sates treseurer that these comns be called in, esad the further lmene of tbem be disooattined.

The London Spectator, in some speaolations oa the changes that may possibly occar to the ant half century in ooansequee ( new discoveries, regards emigratio as oee of the thigs which is quite as likely iobe aleeted as say other. Should a new linpetus be given to this, the cosnequenoes to Europe would be very sr le. The writer says: abppoe, if true, as mmeay men of mark li science believe, that the next great step may be in sea going vessel, that lnternational communi- cation msay be aooelerated, as internal commult- caton beha bees that we ay pt se ew Terk brought within two days' Joeraey of Uverpoel, tLe probability is that io ten years every social condition now existinag i Europe would have ceased to existt: that the mtillions whI el for others and on whose toil moder society is built, would choose to toll for themeulvue-wold pre- cipitate themselves in a rush to which all the movements of mankind have been triles, apo the New World. Suppose the populetion of Britain sad Germary redoed to 10.000.o00-.. change less in magnitude than that which has oc- corred in many sountrils--ad those 10,000.0W only retained by advantages M•reat as the New World csn offer, what would all the hage of the past half century be to that' This may happen, even without asy applicaties of Sepbenson's great idea-the one idea he never worked out-that if enlaeoru, instead of trying to Increase the power applicable to drivian ships, were to reduce the frle on which retard bships, the world would speedily be eoe great pariab. This writer, who has see many comn- tries and lived among many races, seriously be- lkves that, of all the danger to whiho Europe and European soolety are exposed, nose is so formidable as the pasion for emigration; serl- ously doubts whether, if educatlom spreads i Europe, it will be possible to retal its pOpaUla- tion cooped up In their narrow and half-ezais•ed corner of the world. We thiLk, we BgiLsh. that we know what emigration is; bht we know moth- ing about t ; have an Idea of the bchange It would involve if aided by the whole force of the masuses then in possession of the supreme poltical power. Suppose Eve-sixths of those Eugliahmoe who now work fur others choose to go elsewhere and work for themselves. The change between Waterloo and Sadows would be very slight compared with the change between lbeSt and Il1,. and there is not a sesi- ble man in England who will delalre that altersa tlon beyond the reach of Ithoght Why shoel not emigration in Englanld uad Germany attai he beight it has reached in leland, ad the masses losist on aldinl it through the aiUtloal fleets?

In the November number of the American Jourarmled o(f bcience, Professor II. C. Marsh.of Yale Cllege,

has gwen an Interesting account of the metamor-d phLosis of some peculiar reptiles which he obtaioned

of in the liccay Mouunins during the paust usmner.The animals were caught in Lake Come, a smallbe bracki.h sheet of water near the Pacsflic Bailroad,

a and about seven thouvand feet above the sea.They are known is that region as the ' fish withhe leg," ed by naturalists have hiherto been placed

at in the genus •-rtden, and coniered closely re-w lased to the axuou from the table-lands of

of Mexico.On bringing the spceimeas to the warmer cli-

a. mate of boew Haven, one of them coon began toin undergo a remarkabhe change. Dart spots ap-of peared on the aides and finally extended over the

rest of the body. The afins on the back and tall-e and external glills gradually disappeared, and theIi animal came freqently to the earface of the water

off for air. The body aimo diminished in size; there. head chnged in form. and the eyes became more

p* prominent. The mooth and tongue became muchIsager, ad the teeth changed in position.

tl- buriLog thse alterations the almMl made fre-is quent eforts to quit the water, and at last eoeapedhe as a rue slamsnder, represeating a diffrest

genus and even tfealy ofreptile from that ofits original couditiou. tubsequently everal otherspeciemse underwent the mane metamorphosis.during which various ezperlmests showed thatthe rapidity of the change was gratly afected- by varialioas in light amd tompeatsre, the indi-

BY THE FAT N00KTRIBTOR.

There was a funny littl epode on the car thathelped to arouse us. At Montana a young manand a young woman came on board of the sleep-ing car, and the former said: "See here, Mr.Conductor, I want one of your best bunks forthis young woman and one for myaplf individo.ally. One will do for as when wegit to the Blnff.,hey, Marer ? (a playful and afectionate poke at"Merger" with his elbow, to which she-replies,"uow. John. quit!") for you see we're go

•n' to

sit married at Marler's omele's when we git there.We might 'a been married at Montoeny, bat wetook a habit to wait 'till we got to the BlaSt, beinas Marier's uncle is a minister, av they charge agol' fired price for hitchis folks at Montanny."Maria was seskned to one of the "best bunks,"and .John was given one not far away. After atime the inmates of the car were all stowed awayin their berths to go through the inevitable alter-nations of sweltering and Ireesing.

During a stoppage of th tre tal at one stationthe voice of John was heard, raised in pleadingaccents, all uncouscious that the trasin hadstopped, and that toes which the noise of therattling whetls had drowned while the cars weremoving, could be distinctly beard by all whenthey had stopped.

" Now. Ma-ri, you might give a feller js' onekiss."

SJohn, yeou quit, or I'U git rihbt out here andhoof it back to Montanny in the mow storm."

" Only one little kiss, Marier, and I'll go; hopeto dle'i I don't."

Jc hn -"Just at that iateresting moment a gray head

protruded from a oerth at the other end of thecar, and an old man cried olt so that all couldbear: "Marier. for God's sake give John onekiss, so that we can go to sleep some time to-night."

It is needless to remark that a peal of laugh-ter rang from one end of the car to the other,under cover of which John slunk back to thesolitary seclusion of his " bunk," leaving Mariato the undisturbed possession of her marriagelicense,' which she interpreted to permit nolicense to John until accompanied by the propercertificate. And Marier was right.

A California correspondent of the New YorkJonrnal of Commerce thus compares the Falls ofNiagara and Yo-Semite:

The Falls of Niagara and the fallsof Yo-Semite,in California. are objectaalmost beyond the powerof Suite comprehensaon. The contemplative ob-server surveys

" The hell of wats where tbhe hwl and blesua tbol in aend ore trtar.'

and with each sneceeding view irnahled to forma more definite conception as to the volume andpower of the tremendous cataract. In respect toheight Niagara dwindles to instgnificance con-trasted with the fearful plunge of two thousandsix hundred feet at Yo-Semite--sixteen hundredfeet of this descent unbroken-and, as to volume,the talls in Californla are probably quite as im-pressive, if viewed near at hand. There is thisdtllerence, however: that one I4 thelong featheryflight of an arrow, or as the plunge of a rooltethrough the heavens, whereas at Niagara a pon.derous mass is thrown over the precipice, and atonce strikes below. One is light, aerial, beautitul. but at the same time the eternal roar thatechoes among the cliffs, the voloumesof vapory in-cenase perpetually ascending, indicate the presenceof a restless power. The other is overwhelm.ingly terrible. (oe is the firing of a rifle at a dis-tant matk : the other the discharge of a mortar asnort range. I think that Niagara suffers in thecomparison. It is something from which humannature recoils with a sense of dread, whilst Yo-Semite fills the mind with astonishment andrap-lutre.
