WONDERS OF THE SEA.

The water in the striiit of Gibraltar is .150 fathoms deep. The polar currents contain less salt than those from the equator.

Fo* a long time the coral was supposed to bo ft plant. Even lieaumur treats it as such.

One kind of sea bladder has no mouth, hut absorbs all its nourishment through the pores of its body.

The bed of the north Atlantic consists of two valleys, separated by a mountain range that runs from the Azores to Iceland.

Sea anemones have been known to live for three or four years without any nourishment save what, they extract from the water.

At the lowest, depth from which specimens of the bottom have been brought, up 110 different species of infusoria wero ate from Bowdoin college, found.

When some species of sea hydra desire the blessings of a family, they break off an arm, and the severed member soon becomoB a complete creature.

Some varieties of polyp consist of eight or ton individuals inclosed in one skin. In all respects save that of having a common covering they aro quite independent. ss

CADIZ. March 20.—The Spanish cruiser Alfonso XII, which has been cruising in the Mediterranean in search of the

missing warship Reina Regente. arrived here this morning. She found I the Reina Regente :it Bajo Aecitunos I near Couill, in the Straits of Gibraltar, where she had sunk. Only about IS inches of her masts we.ro visible above the surface of the water.

From the best information obtainable here at this time ir. is regarded as probdble that all on board the Reina liege lire were lost. Mot a single survivor is been reported as having arrived at aay port, nor lias a single body been fount-.. chat could be identified as that of one of the officers or crew of tlie lost ship. I Tlie Alfonso XII has rerarne to tlie' scene of the wreck ".vii ha company of livers and diving appliances for .he pur-h pose of removing the bodies Irom iiie£ innkeii siiip and examining the condi-i'|

The Reina Regente about two years I dgo came to Now York as one of tlie Spanish squadron which escorted across the Atlantic the Columbus caravels.

The Infanta Isabel, now reported to have sunk an American schooner off the .joast of Cuba, ami the Xueva Espaua were the other ships of the Spauish squadron. The latter arrived at Fortress Monroe on Anril 21, Jtlie Roma Regente having the caravel Santa Maria, in tow the Pinta was in tow of the Infanta Isabel, and the Nina was towed by the Xueva Espuia. All three of these Spanish warships took a conspicuous part in the great Columbian naval parade in Mew York harbor on April 7 jf the same year.

The lieina Regente was launched in 1S7, and was one of three second class :lcek-protected cruisers of tlie same build, her si for ships being the Alfonso XII and 1 anto, ail of 4.NOD tons, 12,000 horse power, and expected to steam 20 knots. The. wrecked cruiser was .'120 feet long, had feet inches beam, and draught of 20 feet 4 inches. She was propelled by twin screws. Her protected deck was 4 .'!-4 inches thick on tlie slopes, i.er conning tower had 5 inches of armor, and her gun shields were inches thick.
