The geological formation Of this state is
singular. Ponds with no visible inlet or
ontlet are very frequent Holes IN the
ground, called ''sink-holes, are very COM

caves which abound in this region. Boys
pick up load-stone from the ground at most
any point Surveyors are often troubled
from this cause "Snk- holes" extended in

with sometimes spring Or small stream at
the bottom. Two Of these, near Mqmlord-
vile, excite good deal OF curiosity. One,
on an c'rinence called the Frenchman's s
Knobb, has been descended 275 feet with
,ut indications of a bottom. Another, near
the town, is some 70 feet in diameter at the
top, aud incines like funnel to the depth
of 30 feet At this point is an aperture IL
feet in diameter, leading to unknown depths

RICHARD Il. IRWIN, 1t. Col, A. A. e,

A Bit OF Scorer HIsroay 1T has trans
pired that the rebel General Albert Sidney
johnson, killed at Shiloh. concerted nice
plan to possess the secessionists Of Califor
mia at the beginning of the Yebellion. He
was in command at San Francisco at a
given time the secessionists were to take the
forts with his conniyance, and seiz. 10000
stand of arms shipped thers by Floyd for the
very purpose. San Francisco at their mercy,
must have succnmbad, and the rebels would
thus have had a port in which to fit out pri
vateers, and would likewise have obtained
control Of the vast treasures of the State
The Fact was either suspected or known at
Washington. Brig Gen. E. " Sumner was
appointed to tne command in California, and
was privily put on board ship at sea, arriv-
ing at San Francisc, without previous in,i-
nation Of his coming. He walked, incosni.
to, to the Office of Johnson. Informed him
that he was his successor, showed him his
papers and demanded imneaate possession
The astonished rebel had no alternative but
to comply In half an hour after all the
guns Of the forts were run OUT on tho land
side and heavily shotted The same evening
the 10000 stand OF arms at Renicia were
secured. This brilliant, but quiet cQap d

the chairman short Pambiechookian sort
of man, standing in the centre, speech in
hand, ready to pounce upon the Parson as
soon as he appeared. About the first Irau
to alight was Parson Brownlow, but as the
COMMITTEES did not happen to know him from
"any other man" he was allowed to pass
quietly to the rear. Shortly well dressed
gentleman appeared with servant bearing
his valise, when the committee made up to
him and the chairman at once began to read
his & eloquent address but was dumfound-
ed by the stranger remarking that he was
not Parson Brownlow, but an agent for Hol-
loway's Pills. The Parson, who had been
looking on, then introduced hmsefand sug-
gested that they had better so to the hotel
and he would listen to the address there, and

THE ONLY NATION THAT HAS Pne
ITS DGBrs.-The United States has,
paid every cent of two national'debts,
each greater in proportion 10 the pop,
ulation and resources Of the people
than the present prospective debt. On
the lst of January, 1891, the bublio.
debt was $40, ,46s, ,I7G; this was sues,
cessively reduced until ISI2. when it
amounted to 45,3o6,7S7. The war.
of IsI2 raised it to sI27, 1874, 1898 in Is
I6; the debt was thoroughly cancelled
in 1880, and in addition, s2s, 900 900
Of surplus divided proportionately
among Ito States. The United States.
has the rare honor of being the only
great Government that has paid her
debts, with q surplus, and this without
having oppressed her people with ex-.
cessive taxation.

A pastor was making a call upon q

A pastor was making a call upon q
parishioner, an old lady, who had
made it habitual rule never to speak
i'll of another, and had observed it so
closely that she always justified those
whom she heard evil spoken Of. Be-
fore the old lady made her appearance
in the parlor, her several children
were speaking of this peculiarly OF
their mother, and one of them play
fully added: Mother has such hab-
it of speaking well of everybody that
I believe that if Satan himself were
the sub ject of conversation. mother,
would find out some virtue or good
quality even in him" Of course, this
remark elicitod some smiling and mer-
riment at the originality of the idea,
in the midst of which the old lady ems
tered the room, and on being told
what had just been said, she immedi-
ately and involuntarilyreplied: swell
my dear children, I wish we all had
Satan's industry and perseverance,"
