 'h's, but being versed in Geology. we can account !ot many agricultural phenomena. and thus avert the consequences, if disad- vantageOUs, or cause them to be repea,ed if to our benefit. Geology is a study in which every land owner is particularly in- terested; through its means, we can cor. recIIy estimate the value of the land, by knowing how much matter it contains. which can be converted into source of profit. The expense ofstudying Geology is trlfiIng, and five spend one hour day on it, for years, and make observations in'the mean time. it would be of incalcula- ble benefit to the community, and source ot rational amusement, and more probably of wealth to ourselves.

 Concord (Nfs) Gazette. Marriage of e Parisian Roue iu 7Mr- key.-Count Merle d'Argenteau, a noted Paris roue and duellist, has married the daughter of an inn-keeper at Constantino- pie. The affair has made a great noise m that stupid city, and furnished subject for the correspondent of the Morning Post. who thus describes the manner in which it Sd1ne tO pass

 Such of your readers as have been at C"nstant'nople will probably remember ,he t1"'ei dc rEurope, and they will, doubt- iess' at the same time, (particularly such as are oachelors,) remember what induced them to put up there certainly it could not have been the spurious quality of its wines, still less the comfortless state of it's ruined apartments. Ifthey speak tho truth, they must own there was metal far more attractive in the shape of the inn-keeper's step-daughter, to whose jet black eyes and voluptuous form (undeniable vouchers of her Andalusian descenL no, only theirs but the princely heart of the Sultan Mahmoud himself was compelled to yield at discre- ton. After these admissions, 1t will be un- necessary to tax the memory of these gen. tIemen any further. Fortunately for her- self, as for the benefit of the Hotel de F Europe, to the facinations have described she united all the virtuous intrepidity which we read of in q Pamela, and which in.her case was destined as signal reward.- Into this house did his stars conduct our Lothasio, and week after week did he put up with its bad beds and worse champagne, for the sake of the Houri who made the one and the Hebe who poured out the oth- CT. On the other hand, this was just the sort of customer that suited Boniface, who. strong in the faith of his daughters virtue, no less than in her attractions, was contin- ually urging her to give full scope to the for- mer. He had net calculated that she might have game of her own to play, and might possibly think that fate had reserved for her better lot than that of perpetual bait to his dingy old trap ofa hotel. Great, therefore, was his consternation upon dis covering one fine morning, that not only had she decamped with the Count, but that her younger sister had done the same thing with one of his friends. He immediately raised hue and cry, and in the course of the next day the fugitives were detected in house at Galata, and brought back to him. But this by no means satisfied our host, who, having taken advice on the sub- ject, was decidedly of opinion that he was entitled to damages with them. He accor- dingly waited on tho Count, and armed to the teeth, demanded instant reparation for the dishonor inflicted on his house. But the former laughed at his loaded pistols, and set his threats at defiance. Just as much respect did he show to the demands of the Spanish Minister, who, dee ming the national honor compromised in that of the only family which could lay claim to his protection at Constantnople, repaired to him in person, and charged him in the name of her Majesty the Queen of Spain and the Indies, to give the satisfaction that was re- quired fhim. The Count, in reply, char- ged him in the name of the same august parsonage, to leave his house immediately, or his own honor would certainly suffer from tho application of his foot to the seat of it.. But that which he refused to me- mace and compulsion, he yielded to softer influence. Damages he declined givings probably because he was conscious there was no foundation for them, but lie made a tender of his hand and as some doubts were raised as to the legality of such n,ar- riage in his own country, he bound himself under heavy pecuniary penalties to pre- serve it inviolate. To complete this strange eventfuI history, his GdMs Achates, young French merchant. who had shown his sym pathy by running away with the younger sister, gave still more striking proof of his devotion by leading her to the hymenial altar on the same day that witnessed the happiness of his friend. The whole party are now on their way to Europe, and will doubtless create no small sensation on their arrival"
