BAPTISM IN HooPs.-At Chicago, lately, a
rather amusing scene took place during the bap-
tism OF young lady by the pastor of the Taber-
nacle. The Union says The minister requested
her to assume the dress peculiar to such an
occasion, but she declined to take off her hooped
skirt the minister told her of the inconv enence
that must result from her obstnacy. but she per-
sisted. When she came to descend into the bath,
the fated skirt touched the water and rose up
around her like q balloon. Her head was lost to
che congregation. she was swallowed up in the
swelling skirt the minister tried to force her
down into the bath, but she was kept above the
surface by the floating properties of the crinoline
until after much difficulty and many forcible at
tempts to submerge the lady, the minister sue
eeeded in baptizing the fair one. Finally it was
effected, TO the relief of the minister and the Sc
riously inclined audience, who could not keep
from laughing in their pocket kerchiefs.'

ANOTHER Pool OF SMOAM.-In the northern
mountains, still unnhabited, is a small lake which
at times exhibits strange phenomenon. Some
mysterious agent troubles the waters; we do not
know at how long intervals, but have twice seen
its inexplicable agitation. Millions OF bubbles
come up to the surface and the water trembles as
though innumerable little fishes were splashng
about, near enough to the top to cause rings and
waves ca the pond. No living creatures are Wis
ible in the water, except small frogs who. when
the exhibition begins, go ashore in great numbers.
Some suppose that the disturbance is occasioned
by the escape of gas, generated in an underground
laboratory; others think 1t is caused by the sub
terranean discharge of lake waters, by the ope-
rations of syphon; while persons less scientific
imagine that the spectacle is produced by mil
Hons of little fishes and tadpoles going spree.
But in that lonesome place, without even a bird
to disturb the stiffness, we confess to having felt
a shade of superstition ut the bubbling cauldron.
1t reminded one of the pool of Sloan, where n
spirit came and troubled the waters; but around
this id-forest fountain there were none Of the
lame, or halt, or leprous, waiting to lave their
shrnnken limbs or burning hrows in the pool
which trembed at the invisible touch Of Deity.

The Sentinel Of Wizards Cliff.


There is pile of rocks on one Of the tributa-
fies of Feather river called Wizards Cliff 1t
is lonesome place, where no one would care to
stay, except to rest for night after climbing
over the hills in search of gold. The cliff rises
four or FIVE hundred feet nearly perpeudicularly,
and from the opposite hill side looks like wall
of solid masonry with but few irregularities on
the surface. 1t is cleft at the top square pillars
of tock, rising fifty or sixty feet and inciining
together at the summit, form wide arch
way from which the keystone has fallen
Through this gateway you can see the snow peaks
four or FIVE miles distant, and right in the middle
of the opening, which is dozen yards wide, an
old fr-tree stands, all alone; poor weather-beat-
Ell thing, dead at the top, with its white, bony
limbs and remaining green branches dropping as
though they had grown numb and weary with
holding the ice and snow that gather on them in
winter About sun-down we camped at the foot
of the cliff; the shadows were creeping up the
mountain, the sunshine trembled little while
among the waving trees and then went out. The
day was gone, and twilight hurried out OF the
glen and hung her drapery on the crags. If you
have never camped at night in a forest of fir, in
the region of perpetual snow, you have not a
good idea of the lonesome hour between sundown
and dark The silence is deep, intense and nearly
audible; it is like the few moments of stiffness
in a death chamber after the father of the house
hold has expired, and before the mother and
children open the wide doors of their sorrow.
One would be glad to hear the voice of the most
discordant creature, but there is not bird to
sing, not squirrel to drop nut from branch;
nothing save the low, melancholy wind dirge
greving through the boughs which nod sadly to
each other and interlock as if bidding "a last
good night So voiceless was Wizards Clif'
Our companions were sleeping the deep sleep
that faleth on mem when they are weary, butwe
were watching the solitary tree that stood in the
chasm. The moon came and set it out in bold
relief against the glstenng snowy background,
and swaying about and backoning with its arms,
it appeared TO take human shape and stand in the
gateway parleying with the wind. We thought
of the spectre of the Broken and Of the grove
where story says an opening reveals phantom
warrior resembling the exied Corscan. The
tree grew wondrously; the dead top, glittering
with frost, became a soldiers bayonet the green
branches below formed his military cap and
cloak, and we seemed to see, on the battlements
Of fortress, the giant sentinel Of Wizard Cliff
