Professor Guvoti of Prlhectdtl 1ol lege, calls America the Continent of humidity, or the Oceanic Continent, on account of the largo amount of freshwater it contains. The Krcitt lakes between the United State and arc computed to eohtalfT ifcarTyerm half of all the fresh Water on our globo, and IX to these we add the lakes of Brkixh America, Orinoco, I Plata and otbors, with their hundreds of tributary lakes and rivors, there is a quantity of fresh water fully sufllci cnt to justify Professor Guyot's ap pellation. , . , , Tne great lakes, witn tne Bt. law- rence, which forms their outlet to the ocean cover an area of more than one hundred thousand square miles. The rise and fall of the water in the larger lakes has never yet been fully ac counted for Sometlin.es the water In lake Supe rior rise eighteen to twenty-four inches without any apparent cause, and in llko manner subsides. There is no uniformity tn these changes. Prof. William Mather, of the West Point Academy, several Veilrsago spent sottie weeks hi studying this iihenntnenon, and gave it as his opin ion that the lake system formed a van! hammntcr. 'Ilia atmosnhere over any portion of the lakes bucotn Ing heavier or lighter from any cause, such as winds of a different tempera ture will bear down upon the surface of the waters In ono portion of tho expanse, less or more heavily, as the case may bo, and cause ah elevstlon or depression or tne waters oisewnero. The aVerago pressure of tho atmos nboro beluur fifteen Istuuds to tho square Inch, it can easily be seen how very small a variation iu the weight of two columns of air In different lo calities on the lake would produce a difference in' tho relative force with which the.v bear upon these vast sur faces of Water irt different places, The bottom of Iake fcrle In sorflo places is hardly, if at all, below the level of the top of Niagara Falls; and it ummI to be tliouirht that iu nroccss of tlmo, by a gradual weariug away of the cataract, only a barren wants of mud might be left where the bod of the lake at present is. U is how believed, that by thu gradual retro cession of tho cataract, the be'ght which the waters plunge will btcoine smaller and smaller, until at or near the lake the falls will altogether dlxap- ..... - I .1...

Tbo fact is tout we have, lu a geo logical point of view, ouly juet boun to make acquaintance with these lakes. Geology is but in ita infutieyi and tho geology of tho lakes iastill lea known thu tuatof tliescacnet.
