RVKHJUiniE EXPEBIEXCB). Of the various methods resorted to by men to obtain a livelihood, one of the most unattractive would seem to be that of diving, even where goodly pearls reward the diver for the great exposure of his life, yet the practice is almost as old as history, and the art of searching in deep waters for concealed treasures has a charm to it, sufficient to overcome, in minds of a bold and adventurous nature, the aversion with which it is generally regarded. Exciting and novel experience characterize the life of the diver, and if these amphibious individuals would communicate to the various incidents of their submarine lives, not only would their books prove very interesting reading, but our stock of knowledge concerning life beneath the waters," would be vastly increased. In the pursuit of the hazardous profession of divers, our countrymen have obtained a distinguished pre-eminence, as is evidenced by the success of the company now engaged in raising the sunken llussian frigates in the harbor of Sebastopol, and by the exploits of Mr. J. B. Green. Mr. Green who has become a cripple in consequence of imprudent exposure while diving oo Lake Erie, has published a narrative of his experience as a diver, which contains many interesting facts, and is worthy the attention of all who would add to their store of information on aqueous matter. Mr. Green's pamphlet is entitled
Diving with and without Armor," and from it we gather that he early possessed a love for the water, and could swim and dive with uncommon case, and the success he met with at Oswego, N. Y., one day in diving for some trifling articles which had been lost overboard, led him to adopt diving and submarine wrecking as a profession, as he found it was a very lucrative one. For several years he followed the business without the use of armor, going down to a depth of forty-two feet, and remaining at times three minutes under water. During this period he not only recovered a large amount of property in and about the harbor of Oswego, but also many bodies of drowned persons. Oil one occasion lie was successful in quickly recovering the body of a young lady who fell overboard from a steamboat, so that site was resuscitated, and he received from the overjoyed father a reward of five hundred dollars. In this connection Mr. Green states that in almost every ease where he

Mr. Green first saw and used armor for diving in the year 18f2, on Lake Eric, where he met a party of divers who were exploring a sunken steamer. He adopted the use of the armor, and afterwards succeeded in reaching the remarkable depth
of one hundred and fi.tv-two feet below
as if slie were at her
The armor employed by divers is usuall3- composed of a metallic head piece for the protection of the head, and a rubber suit for the rest of the body, made large enough to admit the three suits of wooleu clothing requisite to maintain the warmth of the body. Attached to this suit arc two tubes, a signal line, and a bead line, by which the driver is drawn up. One of the tubes connects with the surface, and through it fresh air is forced to the diver, by means of an air-pump. The other tube is for the escape of the foul air expelled from the lungs, and is furnished with a valve which immediately closes if the wa: ter rushes into it. The supply tube also contains a valve which in case of leakage instantly closes and prevents the air from passing out. Many divers have lost their lives from not having these valves on the air tubes. To sink the diver, weights are attached to the feet and waist. It is necessary that divers should be careful abont eating before making a descent. Going down directly after a hearty meal, rendered Mr. Green a cripple for life. They should also descend slowly- The sensations experienced by the divers are thus described
On this bank of coral is presented to the diver one of the most boantiful and sublime scenes the eye ever beheld. The water varies from ten to one hundred feet in depth, and is so clear that the diver can see from two to three hundred feet, when submerged, with little obstruction to the sight. The bottom of the ocean in many places on these banks is as smooth as a marble floor in others is studded with coral columns, from ten to one hundred fe«t in height, and from one to eight feet
in diameter, the tops of those more lofty supporting a myriad of pyramidal pendants, each forming a myriad more, giving realty to the imaginary abode of some water nymph. In other places, the pendants form arch after arch, and as the diver stands on the bottom of the ocean, and gazes through those lofty winding avenues he feels that they fill him with as sacred an awe as if he were in some old Cathedral, which had long been buried beneath old ocean's" wave. Here and there the coral extends even to the surface of the water, as if those loftier columns were towers belonging to those stately temples now in ruins.
There were countless varieties of diminutive trees, shrubs, and plants in every crevice of the coral, where the water has deposited the last earth. They were all of a faint hue, owing to the pale light they received, although of every shade and entirely different from plants I am familiar with, that vegetates upon dry land. One in particular attracted my attention it resembled a sea-fan of immense size, of varigatcd colors, and of the most brilliant hue.
The fish which inhabit those Silver Banks, I found as different in kind as the scenery was varied. They were of all forms, colors, and sizes, from the symetrical goby, to the globe like sunfish from those of the dullest hue, to the changeable dolphin from the spots of the leopard, to the hues of the suu beam from the harmless minnow to the voracious shark. Some with short blunt noses, others with bills protruding feet beyond their heads. Some darted through the water like meteors, while others could scarcely be seen to move.
The sun-fish, saw-fish, star-fish, dolphin, white shark, ground shark, blue or shovel nose sharks were often seen. There were also fish which resembled plants, and remained as fixed in their position as a shrub. Tlu only power they possessed was to open and shut when in danger. Some of them resembled the rose in full bloom, and of all hues. There were ribbon fish from four or five inches to three feet in length. Their eyes are very large and protrude like those of the frog. Another fish was spotted like the leopard, from three to ten feet long. They build houses like the beaver in which they spawn, and the male or female watches the ova until it hatches. I saw many specimens of the

In diving to a depth of forty-two feet without armor, lie experienced no inconvenience whatever, and this is the experience of divers. His theory is that where the body is unprotected, the water which is admitted into the system through the numberless pores, counteracts the pressure of the water from without, and the two equalizing each other, the body docs not feel the weight. When water proof armor is worn, the bodv has to support tuns of pressure at thirty feet below the surface it would be ten tons.

The Republicans have nominated Abra ham Lincoln of Illinois for president, and though the Baltimore Convention has yet to meet and go through the formal completion of what was commenced at Charleston, the country is already prepared for the is sue Stephen A. Douglas or Abraham Lincoln. Upon that issue the campaign has already commenced, and will continued upon that issue—upon that choice the American people will at once divide, and long before November next will have determined in their own minds how they will choose.
The nomination of Lincoln is one that the Democracy would have invited if they had been solicited by their opponents to make a choice. The forty thousand old Whigs of Illinois, who admire the conscr vatism of General Cameron, and who would, have cheerfully voted for him, have already in the remarkable contest in 1858, repudiated the detestable doctrines of Lin coin. A vast number of voters in Illinois who have come to Illinois from New York, where they were taught to respect, admire anc love William H. Seward personally, and who while differing from that gentleman in his ultra notions upon slavery, would have voted for him as a tribute to his great talents and rare personal integrity, will not vote for Abraham Lincoln, whose nomination is the result of a con spiracy by Greeley and the Bl^irs, aided by some men from Pennsylvania, to prevent the nomination of the great statesman of New-York.
The negro equality doctrines of Abraham Lincoln, will deter all those who think this government was formed for white men from aiding in his election.
The contest will be a warm one in Illinois, and to some extent in Indiana. In these two states Lincoln will find personal friends, a class of politicians to support him with ardor, but as against Douglas he will in these States be disastrously beaten. Illinois will give Douglas eighteen thousand majority, Wisconsin will recover her democratic laurels, Iowa will once more become the Democratic game cock of the west. In Ohio Douglas will lead his opponent ten thousand, even in Michigan, from lake to lake, from the Indiana line to the peninsula, the name of Lincolu will be lost in the universal acclaim of Douglas.
The nomination of Lincoln secures to Douglas, that respectable, and it is to be hoped, large portion of the people who think that ability and capacity ought to be considered in the selection ot a president of the United States. The nomination of Lincoln (and we intend to say nothing unkind or disrespectful of him) will be regarded by all who know him, as a degradation of intellectual worth for mero purposes ot crafty personal hatred towards others, and not because of any fitness on his part for the office.
We therefore say to our Democratic friends in this state, as well as elsewhere, that the nomination of Lincoln but removes all possible doubt of Douglas' election.— At home here in Illinois, where Lincoln is perhaps stronger than elsewhere, his defeat is as certain as if the votes had all been countcd. In Indiana he will met by hosts who will turn from him and enroll themselves under the broad banners of Fopular Right*, and follow the great champion of the popular will. Let the Democracy of the other states rest assured that in the northwest there will in November next be a true and almost unanimous electoral vote for Stephen A. Douglas.
The Republican party in Convention have been governed through their fears of Douglas. Had they any hope that any other candidate but Douglas would be nominated at Baltimore, Lincoln would not have been heard of in the Convention. It was the aspirants for office in Illinois and Indiana who prayed his nomination, hoping by the aid of a local candidate to save something from the general wreck of Republicanism that will follow Douglas' nomination.
Let the Democracy of other states, we repeat, rest assured that out of the contest of Douglas and Lincoln, the Democratic flag will come forth untorn, untarnished, and adorned with all the emblems of a glorious victory.—Chicago Times.
When an armor is perfect, the diver can b°r should she attempt any more such anrcmain down from thirty minutes to nine hours according to the depth of the water, but four or five hours is the extent of prudence. Almost every kind of work may be executed below the surface except chopping, which cannot be easily done, and it is with great difficulty the least gash can be made. Sawing, prying, moving bodies, and lifting are easily done lifting can be done easier under water than out of it.
HEAR FROM THE STARS.—It is a startling fact, that if the earth were dependent alone upon the sun for heat it would not keep existence in animal and vegetable life upon its surface. It results from the researches of Pouilet that the stars furnish heat enough in the course of the year to melt a crust of ice 70 feet thick—almost as much as is supplied by the sun. This may appear strange when we consider how immeasurably small must be the amount of heat received from any of those distant bodies. But the surprise vanishes when we remember that the whole firmament is so thickly sown with stars that in some places thousands are crowded together within a space no greater than that occupied by the full moon.

Louis Napoleon, or the pamphleteer, speaking for him, meets with this bold defiance. Take this paragraph as an illustration
"We are far from Waterloo we are no longer fatigued, exhausted, ruined by twenty-nine years' heroic wars. We have profited by forty-five years of peace, which providence has given to us to recover our strength and recast our patriotism. Our African wars have occupied the leisure of the most valiant army in Europe, and have trained it to victory. We have good carbines which carry far and accurately, and cannons which can sweep men off at three or four kilometers distance. Our armv is 600,000 strong and if our frontiers were menaced, France would have as many soldiers as ahe has Frenchmen. We can all struggle on the sea. We have constructed gigantic vessels, sheathed in steel, bristling with triple rows of guns we have solid gun boats, in a word a powerful navy and seamen—in^all of which we were deficient in former times. And then we know the shame and the woe of invasion. A national historian has again placed before our eyes the sad episodes of that fatal period. We have not forgot them. The terrible lesson has remained in our heart, and Europe would be dismayed if it knew of what her&c and passionate resistance we are capable, rather than undergo oew affronts."
F»M1. THEMOCKIXC BIRD OF AttERICA The American mocking bird is the prince of all song being altogether unrivalled in the extent and variety of his vocal powers and besides the fullness and melody of his original notes, lie has the faculty of imitating the notes of all other birds, from the humming bird to the eagle.
Pennant says that he heard a caged one imitate the mewing of a cat, and the creaking of a sign in high winds. Barrington says, pipes come nearest to the nightingale of any bird he ever heard. The description, however given by Wilson, in his own inimitable manner, as far exccls Pennant and Barrington as the bird excels his fel-low-songsters. Wilson tells us that the ease, elegance and rapidity of his move ments in listening to and laying up lessons mark the peculiarity of his genius. His voice is full, strong and musical, and capable of almost every modulation, from the clear mellow tones of the wood thrush to the savage scream of the bald eagle. In measure and accent he faithfully follows his originals, while in strength and sweetness of expression, he greatly improves upon them. In his native woods upon a dewy morning, h's song rises above every competitor for the others appear merely as inferior accompaniments. His own notes arc bold and full and varied seemingly beyond all limits. They consist of short expressions of two, three, or at most five or six syllables, generally uttered with great emphasis and rapidity, and continued with undiminished ardor for half an hour at a time. While singing, he expands his tail, glistening with white, keeping time to his own music and the buoy of his action is no less fascinating than his song. lie sweeps around with enthusiastic ecstacy he mounts and descends, as his song swells and dies away lie bounds aloft with the celerity of an arrow, as if to ecover or recall his very soul, expired in the last elevated strain.
A bystander might suppose that the whole leathered tribe had assembled together for a trial of skill—each striving to produce his utmost effort—so pcrfcct are his imitations. He often deceives the sportsman, and even birds themselves arc sometimes imposed upon by this admirable mimic. In confinement, he loseq a little of the power or energy of his song. He whistles for the dog Ceasar starts up, wags his tail and runs to meet his master. He cries like a hurt chicken, and the hen hurries about with feathers on end, to pro tect her injured brood. He repeats the tune taught him, though it be of considerable length with perfect accuracy. He runs over the notes of the canary, "and of the red bird, with such superior execution and effect, that the mortified songsters confess his triumph by their immediate silence. His fondness for variety, some suppose, injures his song. His imitations of the brown thrush is often interrupted by the crowing of cocks and his exquisite warblings after the blue bird arc minged with the screaming of swallows, or the cackling of hens. During moonlight, both in the wild and tame state he sings the whole night long. The hunters, in nocturnal excursions, know the moon is rising the instant they hear his delightful solo. After Shakspeare, Barrington attributes, in part, the exquisitiveness of the

His friends are ranged in solid column, and have altogether thc best tactics. His opponents arc divided, and without any programme of operations. His fricndu arc at work systematically—have plenty of music, brandy and cigars, and arc accused of having $200,000 to invest in delegates.
