A BURNING MoUNTA1N-Fve miles from
Minersyille, Pa, and fifteen from SchuylkiIl
Haven, some fifteen years since, an anthra-
cite coal-mlne caught fire, and has eyer
since been burning. 1t is now considered
a very dangerous experiment to travel over
the mountain, as it is supposed thatin many
places the surface is a mere superficial crust,
or shell the coal having been consumed up
to the surface, and thence the least pressure
thereon, it is presumed, might break
through and let the adventurer down to the
fiery schasm below. At the base Of the
mountain, in one place, a stream of water,
almost boiling hot, comes out. The surface
of the mountain presents a desoIate APP
perance as far as the eye can reach.

MORE CODA new gold region has been
discovered near MALAGA, in India, which.
promises a considerable increase of the pre-
cious metals, as if Australia and California
were not enough to supply the wants of the
world. 1t has long been known as a gold
producing locality and at one time was tx
tensiyely worked by Chinese, but for many
years has been abandoned, owing to the
lawless conduct of the Malays, who being
too lazy themselves to work the mines plum
dered and murdered the Chinese to such an
exteni that Tie latter were. forced to quit
the spot. The party now at work consists of
some seven or eight Europeans, who had
about eighty Chinese, in their employ and
the quantity of gold obtained by this party
is said to be about 80 ounces a day, with
every prospect of an increase. Chinese to
the number OF 1870, or thereabouts are also
at work. The gold obtained by the Euro
pean party at present is found in a stream
flowing the mountain.

ESrA wild man named Goings, original
ly from East Tennessee, who has been Ey-
ing in the hollow of trees and caves, and
who has frequently been mentioned in the
newspapers, was recently captured near
Florence, Alabama. He is from 25 to 80
years of age. He had been surprised sew
eral times by parties, and tales Of romantic
encounters with him were deemed fabulous
heretofore. Last December an attempt was
made to capture him, but he eluded his
pursuers, and forsook his then quarters in
the hollow of a chestnut tree. A pack of
hounds afterwards got on his trail, but ow-
Ing to the rugged character of the country,
the hQrsemen could not keep up, and the
fugitive was lost in the waters of Shoal
Creek. All further pursuit was then aban-
doned, and many believed the whole story
fabulous, until last Sunday week, a boy,
belonging to A. p. Nicely, reported to his
master that he had seen a man upon the
bluffs near a noted cave, on the plantation
Of Judge Posey. Mr.. Nicely imne lately
called anumber Of gentlemen, and procee-
ded TO thepost indicated. The day was one
Of the most inclemcnt of the season. On
nearing the mouth Of the cave, they dis

senting a picture o fobject misery and squal,
led wretchcdness which utterly beggars of Ill
description, and we shall not attempt it.
He appeared perfectly sane, butgave no sat
isfactory reasons for his singular conduct,
beyond a general charge that the world had
treated him badly, and he had determined
to come out from it. He protested that he
had done nc man harm, and begged to be
allowed to continue his solitary life; but he
finally agreed to go home with Mr.. East
