A Curious Phenomenon AZ the Cum.
berIand Mountains.
From the Louisville oOurier-JOurnal.I


Some six miles east of Crab Orchard,
in Loudon county, there is spring
known as the Burning Well" situated
at the very base of the Cumberland
Mountains, and on the banks of small
stream called Dix river. The water in
this well is in constant state of ebulli-
ton, and regularly every day, between 4
and o'clock in the afternoon, over
flows. A large quantity of gas is liber-
ated, said to be carburetted hydrogen
gas, to which a light being applied a
flame sometimes 10 or Is feet in hight
results. The only peculiarly curious
feature of this well is the diurnal and
infallibly regular overflow, as there are
several burning wells" (so.called) in
this and other States One gentleman,
who processes to have devoted good
deal Of time and attention to the subject,
explains this phenomenon on the hypo-
thesis that this rarefaction of the atmos-
phere, caused by heat, relieves the at
mospheric pressure upon the water,
allowing the gas confined below to make
its escape by forcing the water upward.
This might be satisfactory, but that the
phenomenon occurs some two hours sub
sequent to the time of average highest
heat, and in the coolest months of win
ter, as in the hottest days of summer,
always between the hours mentioned.
The phenomenon has been mentioned
before, but never with a satisfactory
explanation.

Teach self-denal, and make its prac-
tice pleasurable, and you create for the
world destiny more sublime than ever
from the brain Of the widest dreamer.
1t is easy to exclude the noontide light
by closing the eyes; and it is easy to re-
sist the clearest truth by hardening the
heart against it,
In all differences consider that both
you and your opponent are dropping off,
and that ere long your very memories
will be extinguished.
There are moments when petty sights
are harder to bear than even serious
injury. Men have died Of the fostering
of gnat bite.
Mems hearts ought not to be set
against one another, but set with one
another, and all against the evil thing
only.
A man behind the time is apt to speak
ill of them, on the principle that moth
ing looks we'll from behind.
Public reformers had need FIRST prac-
tice on their own hearts that which they
propose to try on others.
Steadfastness is noble quality but
unguided by knowledge or humility, it
becomes rashness.
Next to the man who can answer a
question thoroughly is the man who can
ask it clearly. f9f
The more any one speaks of himself
the less he likes to hear another talked
OF.
No science is speedily learned by the
noblest genius without tuition.

A Gold Island in the West Indies

a Gold Island I'm the West Indies
From the Patterson IN. J.) Guardian. Sep
tember 5.
Some three months since a small
island in the Caribbean Sea, known as
the Bimita, aud about eight hundred
miles south of the Trinidad, while being
explored under the direction of Agassiz,
was found to contain gold. The rock is
quartose, and quietly few individuals
obtained possession of the island, and
these indlviduals-all Americans-will
not dispose of any interest, although last
week several offers from English capital
lists in London we're received, infcrma-
ton having reached them through the
custom-hogse, as is supposed, although
every arrangement had been made to
keep the matter as quiet as possible.
The gold is free aud easily amalgamated,
and in purity in veins in the quartz.
Forty different veins have been dis
covered on the island, and five are now
being worked, and the ore is being re-
eeived from ships at the Centerville
Works in Greenville, in Hudson county.
The works are running night and day.
The ore is now, with very imperfect ma
ehinery, yielding $50 per ton, and they
are only getting one-third Of the gold,
but the "tailings are being saved, with
the view Of running them through the
improved machine being contracted for,
All the gold ore seen by our reporter,
who tested the specimens just as dumped
out on the wharf, will yield SlS9 per ton.
This great discovery is believed to be
likely to build up a very important en-
terprise in Hudson county. The ore is
as rich as the richest ores Of California
and Venezuela.
