REMARKABLE PHENOMENON.

On Wednesday evening last, at six O'Clock, the
at Waialua, on t his island, was observed to be
rapidly rising and wave after wave rolled in, each
higher than the preceding, until the usual bound
airy OF the highest tide was passed, and the ordi-
nari!y dry land was submerged.
We have authentic account from any resi-
dent at that place; but from what we learn YER
baily from native, the tide must have risen some
twenty or twenty five feet above its usual bounds
FIVE houses were swept away, and fences and
other property destroyedto aconsiderable amount.
small vessel, at anchor, was completely sub
merged; her scope Of chain not allowing her to
rise sufficiently to float clear For about ten
hours the high water continued, and then began
to recede.
No premonition was given of this phenome-
non; nor has such thing ever been known be-
tore at that place. 1t was probably the effect of
some submarine eruption, in connection with the
volcano, and its limited action at Waialua alone,
while other parts of the same island were unaf-
fected, Is mystery not easily explained. We
remember a similar rise of the sea at this place,
one at Maui and one at Hilo, on Hawaii, all &C.
curing several years ago, and each isolated and
distinct from the other. This at Waiaua appears
to be another of the description, and owing
to the same cause, which has usually been attrbu-
ted as above stated, to volcanic action. We hope
to hear more of the details of this singular phe-
nomenon from some one who witnessed it, and
also to learn its extent, which may not have been
confined to the limits above indicated.

The following letter WAS written by General
Scorr to General PAEz. soon after the strug-

tablish its liberty and independence. II shows
that the Generals sympathies with struggling
freedom are not limited to the boundaries Of
his own country.

DEAR GENKRAL:-Our friend, Lieutenant
Colonel Young, is on the point Of returning
to Columbia, and will do me the favor OF ex-
planning 10 you how our correspondence has
been interrupted, and the lively interest take
in the three 6ne boys you have done US the
honor to send among US, for their education.
The President deemed this circumstance SO
A.tterinR to the United States, that following
up his kind feelings for sister Republic, he
Immediately ordered, with the appreciation of
Colonel Young. that tho boys should, as they
successiyely attained the proper age, be ad-
naitted into our National Military Seminary,
on q footing with our own cadets The eldest
OF the three will Join in few days, and
shall have the pleasure of being present and of
rendering him all the assistance in my pow er.
You may rely on continuance of those atten-
tions to him, and also the other two. who are
placed at school near my headquarters.
We have heard with deep regret of the
loss uftwo of your ships of war, in an action
with much superior force. Thank God,
however, your independence and liberties ale
placed beyond the reach of foreign agrees
ion. In few years more our continent can
not fail to be occupied wholly BY Republics.
Liberty seems also likely to spread over
large portion of Europe. and among its gallant
assesstors, the Columbian army certainly Oc-
cupies foremost position.
Permit me, General, to say that shall. at
all times, be happy to hear from you. and
that / am, with great personal admiration and
Your obedient servant,
WINFIELD SCOTT.
