WrREXHAM SOlI n' OF NATURAL I SCIENCE. Ou Tuesday evening the second evening fl., et- mg of the Se..3»ii held in t..e Saving's Ba. ii, Dr. Williams presiding. Mr James Bury, H..1 uury, was elected a meaiber of the society. Mr D. C. Divies, F G.S., of Oswestry, re-.d a paper on Life in the Deep Sea." In these dn?s uf cheap and au;ck travullDg, sd Mi Davies, most people knew wh?t it was to s o j -cm for a few days or longer by the sea side, au? here enj. y the pleasures afforded by the study ] of the UJauy forms of life found on the beach 'er the eit) d the tide, or iu the recesses of '.h'< rook pools. Now, suppose that either gradually or suddenly the ittull were to sink (ourselves being secure, of coarse). Suppose that it, I". ge'her with the shore line were to btcome the bed of a deep tftt, and suppose that Ii,tle by lit-it, sizid or limy mill were to accumulate npon this sea bed, covering gently, as the robins did the bab-s iu the wood, ail tue remains of the beautiful creatures of the sea shore, and then suppose that af.er many aies had goue by, the land were leilIer etiddeiilv or gradually lifted Up out of the sea, that it w, re broken aud scooped iuto mountains and valleys, made up of rocks hardened out of the sea sand and mnd, and sup- pose that then men were tu dig and burrow into these rocks searching for lime and slate aud stone, why then what-ver eloe they would fiud, they would be sure t ) fiad the remains of this old lea beach, with very many of i's shells and corals, and even some of it- softer forms of life hardened into stone. Sup- posing they had never seen anything of the lik- hefure, they would certainly stare to see cockles and mussels, periwinkles and limpets, lobster aud sea urchins, coral iiud sea weed, turned into stone. This was what oar forefathers did when ih-y with wondering eyes looked upon the sem- blances of sea life which they found on the rock-, for as we know, most uf the rocks that compose the earth's crust do actaallvcontain the fossibz^d remains of former life, a stream of life beginning in the L iureutian or older knowa rocks with t;iat compiex aud gigantic foramiuifera, the E >o- z K>n Cauadensis, and iilding after running through all the succeeding fo.-m tIons of strati, some 120,000 feet in taickness, with the remains of man aud his handy work, as these are found in the must recent deposits. Tarse organic re- maius in the rocks were a sore puzzle to our au. cestors, aud various theories were started to ac- ooaut for their presence. One of these was the plastic tueory, which taught that there was a sort ef hidden power in nature, by vittie of which matter coald assume the semblance of living things. He met a curious illustration once in bumble life of this theory. He asked a man in a quarry how came the stones to be fall of shells, he said he did not know but be supposed it w is io the nature of the stone for the thiDgR to grow in it. There was the "plis'.ic theory" ef the old philosophers. For two or three centari, a disputations went on concerning the origin of fossils, and when at last the doctrine that they were really the remains of firmer living tilings came to ba Lyeuerally acccpted, their origin was frequently assigned to the action of the delngp of the time of Noah. Here again a difficulty arose. The waten of the nood ool? only leave a f?w layers of mud aud sand of no very great IhiCk., Bess at the most, in which the remains of life wou'd be entombed, but here were shells and bones ti- r tending through deposits of thousands of feet in thickness, aud a very carious attempt to solve this difficulty was made by Woodward, who lappolled that the deluge was occasioned by a momentary suspension among the particles of mineral bodies, by which the whole mass of the globe was dissolved and the paste thus form- i Oecame penetrated with shell. Gradually we have come to a more reasonable apprehension of the manner in which these remains of old life got into the rocks, and the changes which he had just supposed to come over the sea beach, and its I inhabitants, afforded the key to the solution of the whole pheeomena. The North Wales Bordtr contained mauy examples of such petrified seu beaches with their fossilized inhabitants. At TrefldC1' and Trevor, and at many o'her plac-s along the belt of carboniferous limestone which runs from Llanymy nech to the Great Ormes-head ue could point out each an oceau fl or as he had described, laid bare, and corals and sea shells strewn all a bout, or if they were to visit, the quarries in the old,-r lim-s;tone-tlie Bala time- stone in the hills about Bala, or Llanfylliri, or G ii.sfield, or in the beautiful valley of the Ceiriog they should see the remains of immeasurably older sea beaches and bottoms eoi.tiining millions of sea shells densely packed in fossiliferous layers 'hat extended over hundreds of square miles of country, shewiug to them the wide prevalence of a s halluv sea. The same remarks were true i f the formations that lie between these two, b anliful extimples of which we have iu the quarries of Wenlock Edge, with their profusion of the most beautiful of « I corals there to be found. The position occapied by and the grouping prevailing among  also pn.st'utt.d many 0' these orgaoto rpmaius a!so prts?ut?'d many o- he piJelJùuema 01 sea iite atict laws, IUHB, in the Btia lilositicine, we sc)inf t,.naes saw an assem- blage of old sea shells and corals confusedly huddled together and broken, reminding as how the tides at long ago, like those of to-day, swept high up on the beach, the .'mp'y tenements of the sea population. Again, we discerned the steep sea slope in the rapidiy thinning layers of fossils. When these lay-rs were continuous and retained their thickness nv.r a large area, we traced the evidence of ex'^nsive mnddy 2 i's bounding an ancient sea. Wnen the limestone was phosphatic more than carbonic, we inferr-d that the prevailing organisms were creatures wi-li phosplititic shells, like those of the craufish, the nautiios, the mussel, and such like, rather ttittd like those of the cockie and the whelk. In the pale coloured limestone of the carboniferous belt we saw indicaiious of a deep sea deposit, in thf fine mad of which theah-lls of ihe pleurotomaria stand upright just as their rt presentatives of th. I present day bury themselves m t Ie fi e mu l of deep seas. In t'iese limestones tiie terebratula occurred of small 8 ze just as we fi-id their des- cendants, tow sm-ll in Biz" as they are anchored to dep sea bOlt, ms. III the higher limestoueH of the name group are observed the coiais fllrm- iug whole beds or reefs like the reefs of southern seas. We also saw aa abundanca of parasitical life, smaller corals growing upon larger ones, tmuut-i shells attached to those of bigger growth, an microscopical life within aud without those obserVutile by the uaki d eye. Ou the slopes of the milUoue grit hills were preserved the ripple mark s made ou aucieut sandy b hores. lu the Bala liioett ine, about Meifod and Lianfyllin, were the )id wave marks and the cracks made in the old mild as it dried beneath a hot sun. Mr Davies then prooeeded to speak more particularly of the Kind s of liie remains found in tue rocks, more especially in those rocks near to us from the ii,&N downwards, aud concluded his highly teresting paper as follows: — One or two gennai j t rfimarks tiiid I have done. Ana Ouservr, ursf, r now our ideas of form, strength, mid mechanical contrivauce are auticipht d in be structure and I tiltbitaii,lus of tile low.y forms of life we hav.

TLt-. c rru.4,t,k,d shells of the mullusks, combining ligh-ues-s elegance, and ct.eiigtb, are tue original of m my a structure of the present. How much do all om diving apparatus, and indeed our kuowb ;!g ■ generally of hydrostatics, owe to the structure of the nautilus. The colouring of these ancient in- habit iu s of the deer' is for the must part 10 t. But bow mucu of tile ornamentation of our dre. our houn-8, and of our public buildings is d -rv from the shapes aud eiiouniig ut tneir moder;. ,i, Cehdsur.s.

Tuns j while it is trae of the stream of life on the globe generally I 'nf'r¡jlly thoil tdE're h'ls beu li progress fww the protoplasm of Liureutian s.jas through the i iirmediate types to that of the buuaau fo.m and face diviue it is uot true, as a mat er of fact, that io each sub-Liugdom or clas- ttie ifti-uest forms are the mobt i-uiiwltitari -,zi,i gradually improved afterwards. 00 the con- trary some of the earliest forms are the most complex aud perfect. The E Z JOU Canadens is was a oowplex oiganism, uniting iu itself, we are told, the characteristics of several modern genera. I, there anything in the vi.-uil organs of modern crustacean" ti compare with ,ue c-ye uf the trilo. bite. For beauty of shape and high type cf organises the c irals of the C -ml)r.ati, Silurian, and C irbociferous seas are eqial to those of the present time. Where among v"rt:- orata will you cow find asythiug equal in power to the eyes of the great Saurians of the Lias, and thus I might go on woltiplyiug illotratiol's of .hat high type of structure with which, as far as oar knowledge goes, orders and genera of life hive s'arted. But I have said enongh for the inference which I wish to make, which is tbis. tnat it is nnpuiiosophic to limit the mode iu which creative wa, k has proceeded to any one or more of the pi ins which have been sug^e-ted ,0 as, wh-ther these plans be sudden creative ac s or slow evolviug proce-ses. We may easily con- •e:ve bow with the infinite diversity of life, of oond.tio'i, of time, aud with the illimitable wta th of the uuiverteat i's command and that wondrous fertility of resource, which in innumerable litrie rilis, is diffused through human minds, the Or-a'ive Power w -;c i I like to speak of by the good old Eiigii t, word G-d," need not be con- fined to any number of moiles of operation that may commend t.iernstlves to as. Tuere are tit- versities of operations, but the same one inform- ing vivifying spirit. And if the old or.i,.r ohangetb, giving place to the new, God fu.tils Htiii«elf in many ways. (Applaase). The paper was ilia?trated by a number of beau- tiful diagrams of vi.rioas fossils, executed by Miss Minshall, of O- wastry and Mr D. Johnson iu proposing a vote of thanks to Mr Davies for his kindness in comi; g over and giving the members such a valuable lecture, said they w. iL- also indebted to ML'II Minshall for the help she had given Mr Davies. Members of their own society had had the apsistance of ladies it a similar manner, and he hoped the latter would still continae to render the same kind co-cperation. Dr. Eyton- Jones, seconded the vote of thank-3, which was carried with acclamation, and acknowledged by Mr Davies, who said be was pleased to see so large an audience gathered together to listen to a scientific lecture. He did not think that in Oswestry, they coald command such a number. The next lecture will be given by Mr Parr, of Raabon, on November :27h.

H» believed that the powers of the municipal body were so explicit and so plain that it was uunecesi-ury to rsolt to any counsel for his opinion and interpretation of the letter of the law, b cause in this particular instance he believed the law wa-i as clt-br as auy section of their bye- laws. Many people thought it was a pity that tin Town Council should ii.t rfere with a body of r. spectahle men like the corn merchants, and tarn them nolens volens into a buildiug, which, how- ever convenient fur some purposes was not sait able for he purposes of t eir pal ticular bu,iue- He ii!id heard this stated by many persons wh > Were well qialifierd to express an OI)iLiOG on !I!t- subi ct. Again, if they passed Mr Smith's leso- lution it would mean litigation, which he thought hey should, if possible, endeavour to avoid- (hear, beat)-but li'igation would certaiuly en- sue if they tarned these people out of the street. Litigation moitat aucerta-in results both parties might win to a ceitain extent, and beth parties would be great losers. (H, a r). The reasonable and fair thing to do would be to wait a while. He believed the Market Hall Compauy were con- templatiig very substantiel and extensive ait ra- tions and improvements in the Market Hall, and in time they might see their way to accommodate the dealers better than at present. He would are them to piase, because there was a strong objection to going into the build,ng, there was a probability of litigation, and there was a prospect of a better state of things. (Applause). He therefore begged to second Mr Bradley's amend- ment.-I)r. Eyton-Jones X U-g to support the t amendment, and I do so mainly for the following [ reasons.
