It is not said to be found any where else in the world, but there is there an immense vein of it, from which It is said that 160,000 tons can be obtained. In fact, as it is believed to be a volcanic product, and the vein goes down' to the center of tne eartn, tne supply is lnexnauswuic, though the expense of working beyond a certain depth would be too great, lue mine is owneu, and the mineral is quarried out by a firm in Philadelphia, ' c ' " ; ? ; We saw a notice, a short time ago, of a ship lost at sea with a careo of this on hoard, and also having the crew of another .vessel that had been previously lost on the way w rnuaaeipnia. 2, It is known in Chemistry as the Huenae of Sodium and Aluminum, and from it different products are obtained by different processes. For instance, great quantities oi caustic ooaa. The mineral is said to contain 44 per cent ot hydrated Soda, the manufacture of which from this mineral is much more rapid and profitable than from common salt as formerly. Alumina is an incidental product in this manufacture.

But, even if one were . permitted to, an nounce .this one 'side of domestic "experience by change " of garb, the question still remains, whether expression should be given to the weak ness of natural feeling, or the triumph of Chris tian faith ?
