Important Discovert.—The Liver-
pool Post speaks of a recent discov-
ery, by Mr. Napier, of Glasgow, by
which the consumption of coal in
steamships is greatly economized:—
It has been tried in several oee n
steamers, and with success. The
saving is one-third in the quantity
of coal used; and, avoiding techni-
calities. the fact will be best under-
stood when wc say that on a voyage
to the West Indies and back the sav-
ing would he between £1,500 and
£2,000, Used by all the West India
mail boats, the auually coast would
be abridged by a very large sum.
The saving of cost in coal is only j
one of many advantages. At pre-
sent coals are of a bulky and a hea-
vy article. They occupy considera-
ble space in a vessel, and for a voy-
age to Austrilia, for instacc, they can
hardly he carried at all. Reduced
the quantity by oifle-third say 3,000
tons to 2,000 tons, the voyage may
he commenced in perfect confidence
that the vessel can steam all the way.
This will be an immense advantage;
and fortunately for the Great Eastern
she appeares contemporary with the
discovery. She can now be sailed
cheaply, and as she is certain to sail
well, her sucess is ho longer problem-
atical. •
Succe-give Creations of the Globe
—The theory of successive creations
of the globe is one which, however
much or little probability of truth-
fulness may attach to it, is at least
unique and interesting. According
to the advocates of the theory the star
on which we live is a mass of liquid
fireof celestial orgin,round, asliquids
are when floating in space, and en-
crusted by cooling into a shell of
feldspare and quartz. A blue gas-
eous anreal of watery exhalatation
envelopes it for about thirty miles,
and condenses on its surface into lakes
rivers and oceans, covering three-
fourths of the crust, and forming a
resplendent globe of many colored
waters. Instead of being fixed and
solid, the crust quakes, islands rise
and sink in the sea, coasts change
their levels and the fiery central ga
ses escape through the regular series
of craters. Climates change in al-
most every land, in the experience of
almost every generation of men.
The sea has been where the laird is,
and the plants and animals of the
tropics have lived and flourished in
Siberia, while the sedimentary rocks
are proved, in countless instances, to
he made of the petrified remains of
marine life.
Wn.\T is a “ Mo?”—Some years
since there lived in the city of 1
-a merchant who had not the
slightest idea of difference between
truth and falsehood and was so fond
of money that he would have danced
on his mother’s grave for a shilling.
The silk netted shawls called “mo-
hair,” were at that time very fashion
able. An ignorant girl, who was one
day looking at some in the shop of
our friend, complained of their ex-
travagant price.
“Do you know ” asked the mer-
chant how very difficult it is to obtain
the material of which these shawls
are made ?
“ No, sir.”
Wei!, madam when I tell yon that
it takes three men six days to catch
mo, and eight moes to make
shawl, you'll no longer wonder that
they are dear.
“ I should think not” replied ilie
verdant young lady, who took the
shawl, and departred well pleasec
with her bargain and new fact in
natural history.

DESPISING RIDICULE.
I know of no principle which it is
of mor£ importance to fix in the
minds of young people, than that of
the most determined resistence to the
encroachments of ridicule. Give up
io the world, and to the ridicule with
which the world enforces its domin-
ion, every trilling question of man-
ner and appearance ; it is to toss
courage arid firmness to the winds,
to combat with the mass upon such
subjects as these. But learn from
the earliest days to insure your prin-
ciples against the perils of ridicule;
you can no more exercise your reas-
on, if you live in the constant dread
of laughter, than you can enjoy life,
if you are in the constant terror of
death. If you think it right to differ
from the times, and make* a stand
for any valuable point of morals, do
it, however rustic, however antiqua-
ted, however pedantic it may appear,
do it; not for lusolence, but seriously
and grandly, as a man who wore "a
soul of his own in his bosom, and did
not wait until it was breathed into
him by the breath of fashion. Let
men call you mean if you know you
are just; hypocritical if you are hon-
estly religous; pusillanimous, if you
feel you are firm; resistance soon con-
verts unprincipled wjt into sincere
respect, no after time can tear from
you those feelings which every man
carries with him who has made a no-
