A subterraneou8 outlet to the Great
Salt Lake has been found opposite
Corinne, and between Fremont and |
Kimball Islands. The schooner Pho
neer, Captain Hannah, while sailing
in that vicinity last Sunday, was
drawn into an opening which is an
immense mael8trom or stupendous
whirIp ool, and the descent and circu-
lar motion Of the water were so rap,
id and violent that the vessel was
made to spin around in it with fright
full velocity, and it was only by a high
wind prevailing at the time that she
was enabled to sail beyond the inAu-
ence Of the awful chasm.

indamed, and continued to grow worse
until it was feared that fatal result
could only be avoided by amputation
of the limb. From the lads deScrip-
ton, the reptile is thought to have
been a water snake.
