MORE WONDERFUL THAN MAMMOTH CAYE.-Dr. ID.
l.. Talbot, in commencing series of articles for
the Fort Wayne Times, in regard to the Wyandotte
Cave, makes the following comparison between
WyandOtte and Mammoth Caves Wyandotte Cave.
one of the most extensive and remarkable in the
world, is situated in Crawford county, Indiana
about twenty-five miles below New Albany on Blue
river. | have called it a remarkable cave The
Mammoth Cave of Kentucky has hitherto been de-
signated as the greatest known cave in the world
1t may startle your scientific readers to hear me
assert the fact that there staagmite alone in
Wyandotte Cave more massive than all the stalag-
mites and stalactites in Mammoth Cave put together
This cave have surveyed and mapped distance
of twenty miles in length, and there are numerous
avenues. l have never penetrated to their end al
though have visited the cave for scientific and
other purposes, over dozen different times spend
ing on one visit four days and nights within its
darksome halls. The Mammoth Cave is dis
tinguished more for its vastness than its beauty;
the Wyandotte for its great extent, its mammoth
hail Its lofty ceilings, reaching frequently to the
height OF 267 feet, and especially for its numerous
ana beautiful natural fountains, which almost con-
tnuaily meet the eye in every direction. A por-
tiOn of this cave has been known and visited for
over forty years. This portion is about three miles
in length, and is termed the Old Cave. In 1850

miles in extent In 1858 still newer discovery of
ingress accidentally made, which has added
eight or ten miles thereto, and disclosed plan of
formation more extensive and more beautiful than
any heretofore known. This cave contains every
kind of formation peculiar to the Mammoth and
other caves, besides very peculiar and unique
formations found only in Wyandotte Cave.

pear to have protted by the opportunity, In two
different editorial articles this morning it talks of
marching French troops through the kingdom of
gent as it would be to say that the militia of this
city must pass through Pennsylvania to reach the
Hudson river But the most amusing part of this
blunder is that important consequences are made
to hang upon Louis Napoleon's demand of ga right
of passage for his army through Hanover to the

WINE IN OHIo-An experienced vintner, who has
one of the best vineyards in Hamilton county,
Ohio, says that four hundred gallons of wine per
acre may be safely depended upon this year as the
product of the grape crop. The fermented Juice of
the grape readily commands, when new, an aver
age Of Sl25 per gallon. At the above rate the
crop will yield $500 per acre-about the most pro-
fitable crop that is produced in this country.

NEWSPAPER CORRESPONDENTS IN THE FRENCH CAMP
Almost all, if not ALL the special correspondents of
the French journals at the theatre of war have been
sent back to Paris. NJ. Achard of the Dsbats and
NJ. Texier of the Steele had already been seen up
on the Boulevards on the 20th ult and NJ Dreole
of the Constitutional was expected there before
this. The police lately ordered the French iourn-
ais not to say anything more about the battle of
Magenta, and in consequence the account which
Texier sent to the Steele was entirely suppressed
That journal was reduced to excuse itself to its
readers by saying, "Our correspondent has sent us
such narrowing account of the battle of Magen-
ia, that we think it desirable to suppress it, not to
distress our readers"
