A RrxARxABLE SrRMa.Is FLoRtDA.-
There Is near Ocolo, Florids, a'remark-
able spring, enc Of. the. largest of tho
great number in that State. II Is called
Silver Spring. 1 found il in the midst
of a lone hammock, o~vsrloving its
banks. It bubbled up in q basin thirty
seven feet high aud about an acre in
extent, filling and oYcrhowiug IL, and
sending from it q deep stream fifty or
sixty feot wide, aud extending eight or
nine miles to the 0klawaha river, into
wbichit smptics. In the spring itself
City steamboats, may lie ut anchor, and
in the stream steamboats, Of considera-
BILE draught. The stream thus forms a
natural inland port, 10 which three
steamers now run regularly from st.
Johns. Tho clearness Of the water Is
truly wonderful. Il seems even more
transparent than air. You see on the
bottom, about thirty feet below the bot
tom Of your boat, the exact form Of the
smallest pebble, the outline and color
and shades of color Of the leaf which
has sunk. Large fish swim in it, every
scale visible, and every movement OBJ
servable. The water is imprcgnated
with limo and magnesia, but has no APP
probable taste, and is excellent drink
ing water. II you 60 over the basin in
a boat you will SEQ the assures Ia the
rocks from which the river poprs up
ward like an inverted cataract. There
arc more Of these springs in the chan
mel further down. Such springs are
almost common in Florida. Clay Spring
near tho east bank Of Lake Apapka,
pours forth q uavigablo stream into the
st. Johns. Bug Spring, on tho west
side of Lake Harris,is nearly as largo
aa Silvor Spring. have laughed at q
story Of o spring in Iowa which was
large enough to turu,a mill, but I can
swallow all such tales now, after having
seen one that will float a aeot.-Cor.

likely to enllghten Europe "a to the real state OF
things In that happy land. SO far as can be made
out from the scraps of news that have reached us,
oil those Generals who have not been transported

OF any note In the country seems TO have resigned

The military party has always had great influence at

States.
Nowhere outside America are Admiral FarraQut's
exploits better known and appreciated than In
Greece nowhere, also, did the cause OF the United
States possess as warm well wishers ms among the
Greeks. In the triumph Of the Union the GREEKS
have hailed the victory OF friendly people At the
same time as the consolidation Of liberal and repub

Notwithstanding the monarchical form with which
their attributes are Invested among u.s.

get these things In the next Parliament There was
one rock, however-a very serious one-ahead OF the
liberal party. Whether they liked 1t or not, there
doubt that very large number Of the liberal
party in the House was composed OF the aristocracy
and wealth of the land; and II men of extreme opn-
ions were returned they might find that the aris-
tocracy and wealth of the land might be rather
frightened, and II they might large secession

liberal majority would be turned into minority.

Telegraph Cables to crcial
Harmony.

From the London Times tcity artcle August 2s.l
II seems To he well understood that the new French
Atlantic Telegraph Company and the English one
will work with a rational understanding, SO as to
develop without contentious rivalry the utmost ca
liabilities OF the service From the day OF the sue
cessul working OF the English cable IL was almost
universally regarded as certainty that the field
would soon be entered by many competitors, while
In some quarters there disposition to believe
that this branch OF enterprise would create the basis
Of q new revival Of wild speculation. II any more
companies, however should hereafter be formed, il
will be entirely through Acknowledgement the part
OF the existing oncs. 1t was Indispensable that the
Continent should have an Independent line and
France was its natural starting point; but there IA
neither political nor other necessity for additional
communication and any future Increase in the num-
bel Of cables should come as q result merely OF the
and vigilance OF the managers Of the present
lines IN ceaselessy seeking 10 give new
facilities and to reduce their charges by
entertaining In concert every practical suggestion
that may from time TO time be presented for the pur
pose II only one company existed there would
always be the danger OF ~ management falling I'M
der the influence OF q clique who would prevent
every new idea from reaching the Board, but any
such result Will be improbable when two separate
nations are concerned. Under these circumstances
the prospects OF the undertaking seem free from
risk as could be hoped for In any work whatever Of
public magnitude. The fact that nearly one half the
length OF the cable will be in depth OF water in
voying no peril OF any Kind and that the other half
viii lie In depths from which, In OF accident the
practlcabiiy OF recovery has already been demon
straed, insures TO great extent the fulmcnt Of
the enterprise without the likelihood OF any expense
beyond such as has already been fully provided for;
WHILE as regards income when success shall have
been achieved, the shareholders can entertain not
only the knowledge that the existing profits Of At
lantc telegraphy could be divided with handsome
results between two companies, but that wide
vction prevails that these profits form but small
proportion OF those destined TO be attained when the
intercourse between the two hemspheres shall have
been suihciently opened up.
