TBVAT HIGH SCHOOL.

Peep Sea Soundings.

As will heseen by the advertisement ■in another column, this School.will com* mcnce on next Monday in the Odd Fallows Hall. It is very desirable (hat all the pupils should commence with the term, as all the regular classes will be organize .1 during the first week ; and every scholar, in order to make proper advancement, should begin tcilh the clattet. The Hall will be open for the reception of desks on the Saturday morning previous. . 1

Some petsons arc surprised at the stale-1 ment that the water upon the telegraphic’ plateau .between Trinity and Valentin; Bays is from two to three miles deep iu < the deepest parts, having beea teld .that there it is comparatively shallow; A > comparison ot deep sea soundings will show that the idea of its shallowness is I correct, when measured by the almost in- ’ crcdiblo abysses to -1 which the' plummet | has been sent. Lieut Berryman, in 1858. | made a sounding in the Atlantic Ocean 37,000 feet in depth, equal to a little over j miles, and Capt. Denham, of (he Britiah Navy, has obtained soundings .at the 1 vast depth of 40,236 feet, or about English miles. The highest' mountains j upon the globe might be hurled into these immense chasms and still leave a vast ocean above th£ir tallest peaks. The giant Himalaya, that overtop, all other mountains, would be swallowed as easily as the Alps. The highest peak of .the chain is only 28,178 feet above the sea level, and its' summit might be sub* mciged about three miles at the point of Capt. Dunham's deepest soundings!

It is evident that the Administration must go before Congress at its next session for either an additional loan or a higher tariff.
