A WATER SPOUT ON LONG ISLAND
SOUND. H6H

The New York Sun gives the fol-
lowing description of a wateFspout
that occurred a short time ago on
Long Island Sound:
Between six and seven o'clock, as
the steamer Martin was coasting up
the Sound, an immense waterspout
was discovered. When first seen it
was several hundred yards ahead of
the vessel, moving rapidly up the
Long Island shore. Some fishermen,
who observed. the phenomenon, said
that Immediately after hard shower
they noticed an immense dense cloud
forming in the heavens. While they
wondered at its rapid formation, and
momentarily expecting further del
uge of rain, conical pillar, or huge
upright funnel, descended from the
cloud. The apex of the spout shot
downward. At first it apparently
consisted of dense vapor. A SINH
lar cone arose from the bosom of the
Sound, and the two became united du-
ring vivid fash of lightning. When
this junction was formed the water
seemed to run up the sides of the fun
mel like flames of fire (enwrapping a
church steeple. A high wind pre-
vailed, and the column became oblique
to the horizon. The pillar at its base
was the size of a hogshead, but some
huRdred feet above the. water it was
no larger than lager beer keg.
The spinning column of water
danced over the waves like a huge
giant in q waltz. Nearing Cold Spring
il shot across the harbor from Oyster
Bay att quarter to seven. In its
course it struck a row-boat, sending it
spirally several hundred feet in the air
carrying it over boat house and drop
ping it on the beach. Just outside the
harbor it struck brig, completely
dismasting it in the short space OF
three seconds.
Its power of suction was enormous,
and it is estimated that half million
gallons of water were drawn into the
clouds during its existence. Nearing
the beach in the vicinity of Banvard'i
castle, it was seen by boy named
King. The urchin says he heard q
terrible roaring, and ON turning about
saw twenty steamboat pipes rolled in.
to one mile long twisting toward
the shore. The boy ran for his life
and the spout ran upon the shore ap
parently in pursuit of him.
Z Striking the beach fronting the cas-.
tie, the vast pillar of water broke, ,and
the. shore for an eighth of mile wal
deluged by its flood. The phenomenon
was also Witnessed by Mr.. John Ban
ward, who speaks of it as wonderfu
natural curiosity.

SILVER ore has been discovered in
Northern Arkansas, thirteen miles
from Fayetteville. The deposit is
silver and copper mixed, between a
strata of slate, and an experienced mi-
ner states that it is equal in richness
and extent to the silver mines Of Ne
vada. Some of the metal extracted
from the rocks was forwarded to St.
Louis, and pronounced to be nearly
pure silver. The ore is said tobe very
abundant. 49, g -,

AN ExTRAoRDINARY MAN.

One of the most extraordinary cases
Of peculiar formation in the human
body we witnessed a few days since
at Connolly's Hotel, Mercer, in the
person of a colored man, stranger.
1t is hardly correct, perhaps, to call it
case Of malformation, as the phe-
nomena were entirely internal, the
man presenting no unusual appear
ance whatever. This person, by some
inward muscular power, which he
cannot explain, can shift the position
of his heart at will. We went to sec
him, not believing more than half that
was told, but were convinced in less
=HHT1 Tnan It takes to write It. He re-
quested US to satisfy ourselves that
his heart was in the position usually
Occupied by that organ. Placing our
hand on his breast we could feel its
beating distinctly. He then COM
menced a series of contortions with
abdomen, rolling it over and over sew
,eral times. At the conclusion of this
striking exhibition, we placed our
hand upon lump in his left side be-
low his waist, and there was the heart
humping away as if nothing unusual
was the matter. A few more contor-
tions and the frisky organ passed
across the abdomen and on the right
( aide, kept up its work of throwing the
blood through the system as regularly
IS if in its natural position. More
contortions and it travelled back home.
Its course being easily traced under
the skin till it passed under the ribs.
The man then commenced a sort of
rotary motion of the bowels, appar-
emily turning them over several times
when We felt . complete set of ribs
covering the abdomen, the regular set
being in their usual place. Turning
the bowels in the opposite direction
the false ribs disappeared. On being
asked if his parents had any more
children like him, he replied that he
had brother over six feet HIGH, who
could reduce his stature to something
less than three feet. We believe him
readily after having Witnessed the
above performance.-Mercer (Pa.)

TRYING TO GET SICK.


Medical philosophers assure us that
three-fourths of ordinary diseases are
avoidable, could be prevented, if we
acted up to the knowledge we have;
but some are not only careless of their
health, make no effort to avoid dis
ease, but actually seem determined to
get sick; the reader has done this
many a time, and win continue to do
it in too many cases. You have often
come to the table, glanced over it saw
nothing which pleased you, and got
mad as hornet in a minute. At
yourself? Oh no. but at your wife, or
cook, because something was not on
the table which you could relish. But
you could not yourself tell what you
wanted, and acted as though you ex-,
pected them to dive into your glutton-
GUS nav, and divine what would
please you mayhap you wanted forty
different dishes on the table. that sYou
might make your sovereign selection,
leaving the three dozen others to be
thrown away, and then the next thing
would be virtuous indignation at the
waste in the house, and the expense
of living. Why, half of the men don't
deserve wives and they are the very
ones that get the very best. Ont upon
it You unreasonable, ignorant churls.

which causes the feeling of hunger
your wife could not help that, nor
your cook, you might have helped it
yourself, had you not been too lazy to
work yourself into an appetite but de-
termined tomake yourself sick, you
sat down very grumpily, with both ell
bows on the table, or beating a tattoo,
both indicating passion, presently you
began to nibble at this and nibble at

crowded into the system what nature

A SUBMARINE VOLCANO. .


A San Francisco paper relates the
following story told by Captain Ma
SON, of the North German ship. Schil-
Ter, which sailed from Hong Kong on
the 11th of December for San Francis
co. On the middle of january the
following strange phenamena were
observed: @ 90 ga ! 1E8
The position of the ship was lat. 81
20 N. Ion. lao W., and about ten
miles south of Smiths Island which
lies some three hundred and fifty
miles south of Y okohama, on the coast
of Japan. EARLY in the. morning, in
clear weather, and with nearly a
smooth sea, an immense and heavy
volume of smoke issued from the
ocean, about ten miles from the ship.
The smoke arose to great height
and spread far and wide. 1t was moi
accompanied by any noise, nor was
the sea apparently agitated in the To-
eality where the cloud came forth
The smoke was very light co1ored
and continued to rise until the ship
had passed away from the vicinity,
At a distance of thirty miles the dense
volumes rolling upward were plainly
visible from the deck. Had it been
in the night time the captain believes
that flames might haye been seen
Smiths Island is high peaked rock
rising abruptly out of the ocean, and
to the northward of it is an island
about eighty miles distant, evidently
of volcanic formation, the mountains
in the interior of which are nearly
three thousand feet high. The only
way in which Captain Mason can &C.
count for this strange appearances il

A DELEGATION of negroes called on
the editor of the Harrisburg Pa.) }
Patriot, on Monday, to complain of
neglect and bad treatment from their
Radical white friends, in decorating
the graves of'colored soldiers. They
say that not only did their white
friends refuse to participate with them
in the ceremony, after leading them to
expect it, but that they caused the
gates of the cemetery to be locked up
on them, and when their procession
arrived at the principal entrance it had
to break ranks, in order that those
composing it might crawl through
holes in the fence. Query? was it
sudden Sabbatarian piety that prompt
ed our Radical friends to ego back"
ON their negro brethren, or was it
Nthe internal spirit of caste" as Wen
dell Phillips calls it? ..4aH

CooLING off suddenly when over

thought that abundant exercise in the
