Tits llorrosi on THE Sua.—Besidea the count- less varieties ofthe focus, the bottom of the sea is overgrown with the curled, deep purple leaves of the sea lettuce, with a large forest of lichens, and many-branched, hollow algae, full of life and motion in their rosy little bladders, iliicltly set with ever-moving tiny arms. These plants form submarine forests, growing one into another, in apparently lawless order : here interlacing their branches, there forming- bowers an lon avenues; a one time tliriv abundantly, till the thicke seems impene- trable ; then again leaving large openings between wold and wold, where smaller plants form a heart- tiful pink turf. There a thousand hues and colors shine and glitter in each changing light. In the indulgence of their luxurious growth, fuci especi- ally scoin to gratify every whim and freak. Creeping close to the ground. or sending long stretched arms, crowned with waving plumes, up to the blessed light of heaven, they form pale green sea groves, where there is neither moon or star ; or rise up nearer to the surface, to be tran- scendently rich and gorgeous in brightest green, gold,an¢l purple. And, through thisdreain-lilto scene, playing in all the the colours of the rain- bow, antl deep under the hollow, briny ocean ere sail and chase each other merrily gsily- aintod raollusces, and bright shiningfishcs. bnails shape creep slowly along the stems, while seals hang with theirenormous tusbs on large, tall trees. There is the gigantic Dugong, the siren ofthe ancients, the side-long sharlt with his leaden eyes, the thiolt-haired sea leopard, and sluggish turtle.

The subject nfthoessay was the Coagulation of the Blood. This prize essay contains the announcement ofa very important discovery. The cause ofthe co- agulation of the blood has hitherto been a. lmystery to physiologists. Dr. Richardson has demonstrated that the cause of the fluidity ofthe blood is the presence in the blood oftlie volatile alkali ammonia. This fact he has arrived at by a series of well- conducted experiments. Lodon .«‘lllren- Meum \Ve learn from Simpheropol, by a letter written towards the close of last mouth,’ that the Russian troops hitherto in the Crimea had completely evacuated the peninsula. Only a very wes garrison has been left behind at Sebastopol, whilst on the spots formerly occu ied by the Allies a few gonsdarmes and a hand ul of Cos- sacks are amply suflicient to maintain order. Wnouzsana ILLUMINATION.-—The Rus- sian commercial community has volunteered to illuminate the Moscow railway 400 miles, rom end to end, for the Czar’s journey to and fro. The quantity of fireworks in course of preparation is said to be almost incredible. -mu: The Bavarian government has followed the example of Prussia. by issuing an order to al} editors ofjournsls to abstain from publishing ad, vertiaementa of medicine and quackeries of al kinds, unless the same shall be duly authorised by the police, after chemical analysis by authoris- ed versions. The most stringent rules are in force in Berlin, in regard to the sale of poisonous and pernicious substances.
