Our friends OF the Hebrew faith will
doubtless feel much interested in know
ing certain strange Developments, which,
according to the Austrian newspapers,
have manifested themselves in Jerusa-
lem. These developments refer to the
coming Of the Jewish Messiah. The
story, as told, is singular enough. 1t
appears that the rabbi Of Parka, q town
in Hungary, has received letters from
Jerusalem, which state that toward the
end Of last month, column Of FIRE was
seen near the ruins Of Solomon's Tenn
pie, and that strong voice was heard /,
which addressed itself TO an Jsraelite,
who was worshipping there at the time.
This voice warned the devotee OF the
coming, Of the Messiah, this year, and
declared that the Israelites should re-
pent, and be more obseryant OF the re
ligion Of their fathers. The man so ad.
dressed spoke prophetically Of what he
had heard. Thereupon the people treat.
ed him as an imposter, and some went
so far as to attempt to take his life
but be as If miraculously endowed with
more than human strength. fought hun.
dreds Of his sssailants. and when after
wards. battalion Of soldiers were sent
to arrest him, bafied them in their ef-
forts to capture him. Two Israelites, the
Hungarian journals say, have been dis
patched to Jerusalem to learn the exact
facts Of this extraordinary affair. 1t is
clear that il not ono Of the race Of
prophets, tho man who, a. narrated
above. opposed this host Of enemies.
must be an athlete Of no small proper
York Sun.

The Academy Of Sciences Of Paris
has received a highly interesting com
munication from Mr.. "A. Rojas. OF Car
acas, on the phenomena which 10 yan-
Gus parts OF South America occurred
simultaneously with the terrible
earthquake Of the 18th Of August, 1868,
which conyulsed the whole Of Peru.
The information collected on this sub
ject by the author is exceeding striking.
o. the above mentioned day. between
half past three and four O'Clock r. NJ,
the waters Of the Atlantic receeded from
the western coast Of the island Of Gran
ada, and suddenly returned, rising above
the accustomed Level. At that. same
hour, at Bolivar, the 0rinoco rose fully
three feet and at that identical time q
traveller, riding along the banks Of the
Araucs tributary Of the former river,
all at once saw the water rise and reach
higher up than his stirrups. Atapoint

feet Of ground on each side immedi

the water kept bubbling for some min.
utes, and then subsidized to its pristine
tranquility. At the same moment the
inhabitants Of Juan Criego, north Of
the Island Of Margarita, opposite Gu
mana, fed to the highest point Of their
village on seeing the waves Of the ocean
rise to the altitude Of twenty ieet and
more, advancing to the very doors Of
the dwellings. The waters, however,
speedily retired without doing any dam.
age. The same phenomena occurred in
the Port Of Rio Caribe, on the side oI
Cumana. The Lowell OF the Juruari is
said to have risen at the same time, but
trustworthy particulars are wanting.
From all these facts, observed vt points
widely distant from each other, Nj A.
Rojas concludes at the time Of the great
earthquake Of Peru there was general
upheayal Of the sarths crust throughout
the northern part Of South America
The volcanic axis OF that continent
passes precisely between San Francisco
and Bolivar, extends WESTWARD Of La

from the smaller West India Islauds.

markable instances Of synchronism,
