AN UNDERGROUND RIVER IN 0HIO.-It
is generally known that there exists about a
mile west of Fremont remarkable under
ground stream, with a swift current, aud no
outlet above the surface ofthe ground this
side of Lake Erie 1t was discovered sever
al years ago on a farmof the Mile House,
now owned by widow Shelter. by man who
was returning from a days choDping In the
woods In walking over a slight sunken
place, he noticed hollow sound and turn
ing struck the ground with his axe. The
axe broke through and disappeared and bas
never been heard from since Further in
vestigations showed a rock about six feet be-
low surface, with erevice foot or more
wide, in which could be seen several feet
below. By tracing Its course further down
and breaking through the crust, the pheno-
nomen appeared again, and by dropping a
piece of wood or other floating substance in
the upper aperture, it was soon seen to pass
the lower one, showing strong current. A
lead and line let down to the depth of seven
ty feet found no bottom. The supply of
water is only slightly effected by drouth. 4
pump sctup in one of the places above men
toned has furnished the water to the whole
neighborhood during the late dry season.
1t is certainly a remarkable stream.

THE Two MERCHANTS. We clip the
following, which daily finds an illustration
in every city, from an exchange, and com
mend the lesson it teaches, to the c0nsidera-
ton of merchants located IN this vicinity:
When trade grew slack, and notes fell
due, the merchant face grew long and blue;
his dreams We're troubled through the night,
with sheriff bailiff' all in light. At last
his wife unto him said, Rise up at once,
get out Of bed, and get your paper. ink and
pen, and say these words unto all men: Ny
goods | wish to sell to you, and to your
wives and daughters too; my prices they
shall be 50 low, that each viii buy before
they 90.
He did as his good wife advised, and in
the paper advertised Crowds came and
bought of all he had; his notes were paid
his dreams made glad, and he will tell you
to this day, how well did printer S ink repay
He told US this, with knowing wink. how
he was saved by printers ink.
The other in place as tight, contented
was the press to slight, and did not let the
people know of what he had, or where to GO.
His drafts fell due, and were not paid, a
levy on his goods was made; the store was
closed until the sale, and for some time he
was in jail. A bankrupt now without a
cent, at leisure, he deeply repents that fool
ish and unwise, he did not freely advertise.

SUNDAY REST A NECESSITY.

Nature re-afirms the Divine law that Que
day in seven should be set apart for rest and
worship. Both the brute aud human world
need it for their well-being DR. Fare, a
distinguished physician, says.
Although the night equalizes the circula-
ton well, yet it docs not sufficiently restore
its balance for the attainment Of loHg life.
Hence one day in seven, by the bounty OF
Providence, is thrown in as day Of coln-
pensation, to perfect by its reposc the am
NAL system You may easily determine
this question by trying it on the beasts of
burden. Take that fine animal the horse.
and work him to the full extent Of his pow
ers every day but one in seven, and you win
soon perceive by the superior yigor with
which he performs his functions on the
other six days, that this rest is necessary TO
his well-being. Man, possessing 4 superior
nature, Is borne along by the very vigor Of
his mind, so that the injury Of continued di-
urnal exertion and excitement in his animal
system is not so Immediately apparent as il
is in the brute but In the long run it breaks
down more suddenly; it abridges the length
of his life and that yigor Of his old age
which tas to mere animal power ought to be
the object Of his preservation. This is sim
ply as physician, and without reference at
all to the theological question.

negro preacher has been paying Marysville,
Grass Valley and Nevada visit, perhaps on
business connected with the Grand Army Of
the Republic. Well, this Negro under the
tuition Of the Marysvle Mongrsls has come
to the conclusion ihat white trash should not
be crowded into the same coaches with
colored gents Of the God and morality cloth.
lie writes to the colored mongrel organ at
San Francisco as follows:
"Frday morning, 2oih inst, we started for
Grass Valley and Nevada City. The roads were
horrible. Tobacco smoke, bad whiskey, onions
and garlic made our ride OF forty miles anything
but agreeable"
Look We here you Dutch tobacco smoking,
garlic eating, and Irish whiskey drinking

ofactory nerves of yonr niger fellow pas.

turned in, would stink dog out of tan
yard, and that the white passengers wero
compelled to resort to whiskey and garlic
to protect themselves from the fetid, offensive
smell Of the darkey.
