Thrilling Incident.

Prof, Hitchcock in letter to the AM
hcrst Express, from Virginia, describing
some Of the coal mines in that State, re-
lates the following thrilling incident: get
"a hunter one autumnal evening, ca
gerly following in the chase, found him
self sliding down into an abandoned coal
pit; but, seizing upon the top of bush
as he slipped down the craggy sides, he
hung dangling in she air over the black
gulf, and felt conscious, from his knows
edge Of the place, that if he fell he must
drop at least two hundred feet and be
dashed to pieces OIL the rocks beneath
He struggled in vainto regain foothold.
He heard the cry of his fellow hunters
and OF the hounds as they bounded past.
He shouted with all his might, aud the
forest returned the echo, but no voice of
rescue came with it. Theswinds whis-
tied around him, and the moon shone
upon his face, but. they brought no re-
lief. His strength rapidly failed; he
thought in agony of his family and
friends, Blu. he must die an awful death.
andey his mangled body never be dis
covered. His mind became bewildered,
his muscles gave out and down he went
-down--down--swifter and swilter,
nor struck the bottom till he had reached
the enormous depth Disk INCHES"
