Nea-Curnmliem' C'urioDi Marine Animals. Yt. Andrew Wil.-ou contribute the following to ' '(lull's tanitl'i M i-jiziht : I'nder the nauie of tea-cU'-uiiilierC" some vere curiou forms of animal life are iiK luded. The Ur.'u has been applied to the-e ! in's from the r'J!i n-.-erii-blance they pre--nt to the familiar eeUvble of that nariie, and they are ai-o known under the designation of trpan.'," " bi he th-iiier," whilst by the naturali.-t. they are r:an ! lhun-r, and are by j.im c!aiti-d alon' with .-tar-lL-he-, sea-un-hia or frhiut, and allied form. Arund the British co:x.-ti Mnull pe imens of ea-cu(uin-U-r. may frequently Ie obtained by drflin, but it I "in the tropical rejrion of the xvorld, and e-j- ially in the sea of China and of the Ka:ern Arvhinelao, that the-e form attain their highest development, both i to number, varietv and size. An ordinary lltlAhurii bears arouh reen.blanee in external form to a cucumber. Kxternally we may perceive five row of jeculiar little feet, each l pre-entin the ai'j-arance of a tube

ending in a little sucker. These rows of feet thu divide the loly of the aninal longitudinally into five loin- or di-vi-ion. At the anterior extremity of the 1mJt w rind the mouth -urrounded by a circV-t of beautiful feathery tentacle or feeler, which re aj'able of bein;r retrated at will within the body, and whi h prin from a -erie of living plate arraii-l in the frru td a rin within the mouth. The kin of the IhhIv is touh, and f, . r. .... . . ,i wuicsu.ii leitt'! i.-?; u t , very frequently contain particles nf living matter iiiile ided in it u!i-tance. 1 h-.-e " -pii ule.-, ' as the particle. are named, prt - nt, w h- n pn pared for examination under the iuicr.-xcoj.e, very curiou ami charactcri-tic form. Tliey . are to l-regarded a nidiments of the i'ti.i -.in iuie-, iii. ii aiuiiJi a uiutu rreater development in the -kin of the ft.ir-?il e r a rtiil eater derree in the ".. 11" of the -ea-urchin. In one ru;i of the .-ea-cu umlier, that know n l-y the name of Syn if ti-l e, Ii inar spicule are used to a i-t in the movementof the animals. In this latter (rrouj the pi?ule exi-t in the form of anchor ha ed parJclc. w hich are situated upon little prominence of the -kin, and they thu erve to fix one portion of the tody, w hil-t the other portion i ajjnximated t- the fixed part by muscular contration. The entire skia in all of these animal, indeed, i hihiv mu-cular. and I in virtue of thi mus ul aritv exhihit a hih d.-ree of contra' tile pow er. Thi power i carried to such an extent in the-e animal that when either irritab-d ! or alarnjed they are seen to eject t! ! internal orar. f thb.lie frorn J their mouth, by compres-ins' and cntra. t;r: the skin; and thi phenomenon 1 not necessarily fatal to the animal, since the ejected vi-cera can be aain withdrawn into it- bodv; while till more str:inpe reproductive pi.wcr -et-m in --ime ca s to ufKce for t!ie rpla.-v-ment, by the tlevelopun nt of new re;an. of the ejected and ca-t-otT viccra. The internal structure f the ImhIv tn I the a- ucumlt r preer.t, in eeral ox n arx-, ueiau oi jrreai iniere-i. Thus, we find a special system of tu!-. termed the " aiubulavral y-tem," adapted for the performance of locomotive movement. 1 hrnih thi system the little tubular feet already alluded to are inflated with water, or with some other liquid, and so ren Jered tene and ti:T for the upport of the b.dy, and the due eerci-c of their function. A central tube i f.ind surrounding the tnouth, and little ba,r of ve-icle. named I'olian ve-it le after I'oli their discoverer, eaist on this tube and ad a re- rvtirof fluid. From thi i ntral and circular tule five main pije. traverse tlie interior of the lodyf and underlie the five pw of tuW-feet --n on the exterior of the hdy. Kach little tule-f.Mt ctmi-t es-entiallv of muscular layer, and expand at it attach 1 end or that at which it join the wa-ter-tabe of the interior unto a little muscular sac tr xeiele. Thi latter act a a reservoir t-t the fluid usetl in the expan-iin of the foot, and accord ingly w hen the feet are to he protruded j for the iurreof "wa'kinir." the fluid! j conveyed to the foot ae i ejected from i j the sa into their n-sjectiae feet. On j the other hand, w hen the tuU'-feet are ' j to Ik retractl the fluid whicli t'.i-tf rid I them i wr.t back Iv th ir oontrai tion I into the !acs, and there remain' until arriin rep:nred for the di-tcn-ion of the fe't. It i -mew hat remarkable that while in the allied tar-nh- and .-ca-urchin the fluid u-d to di-tend the tube-f.x-t simjily conL-t cf ie.a-wat r admitted into the tube from the exterior, that I used to di-tend the f t of the scaj cneurr.lH-r apj ar t le derived solely !frimt!.e it nor f the ImnIv.

Julius Wie.aniler, a native of Dantrz, in l'ru-ia, but for the ta-t two or three year a resident of Hertford, is the inventor of an apparatus for the m.anuf.u-turine; of illuminating pas, which pnmie to Ik; valuable f. r factories and private establishments. He obtained hi firt idea in regard the invention in his own country, where he was employed in a.-wtrk, but it was not until quite recently that he perfectel hi apparatus and brought it to its present hih decree e-f eflicienry for the manufacture of pas. It is designed for apjdicat'on in factories, foundries, or other establishments where harp? quantities of coal arc used in furnaces or beneath Ixulers, either for steam or heatinp purjK-, or 1 t h . Mr. WiesanIer ha a working model on exhibition. His fyrnace and retorts are in the form of a cube, about three feet in ize each way, the furnace leinp of shet-iron, the" two retorts of ca-t iron. In the retorts is placed, coal such a is used for the manufacture of pa, and the fire U liphtcd in the furnace. Within twenty or thirty minute the pa will be penerated, and pas-es diree tly to a purifier, containing a slnple c jmpartmnt, alnive the to; of the furnace, fontaininjx water.
