The FAMINE IN PERsIA.-rhe horrors of the
Persian famine increase. A correspondent
writing to Turkish journal from Tabreez, I'M
der date of April Both, says: The details which
reach us here of the destitution and misery
which the drouth of last year has caused in the
central and southern provinces of Persia are
fearfully heartrending. That the people are
dying of hunger, even in the streets of the cap
ltal, is minor phase of this terrible calamity
In khorassen, parents are selling their children
as slaves TO the Turcomans in order to keep
them alive; and in Ispahan, as is said men
have been seized in the act of digging up corpses
to serve as food for their starving families. In
Saskatchewan and Yezed the wretched suffer
ers endeavOr to support life on grass and roots
which they may find in the neighborhood, and
as might be expected, pestilence follows hard
on the footsteps of famine-between them the
half of the kingdom of Persia is becoming rapid
ly depopulated.
A later account Of the famine is given in the
Times of India Of May 10, which says: "The
famine in some parts Of Persia is severe beyond
comprehension. Rain was for long time hope
fully expected, but it came in very measured
quantity, and too late to turn away the foe that
was already at the door. Thousands are said to
have died by the wayside of sheer starvation, or
of starvation coupled with the diseases il inYar-
ably brings in its train. Most of the dead lie
unburied-a fact which may be regarded as the
sure precursor OF pestilence. At first, when self.
preservation by any means whatever, became
question TO be decided, yea or nay, the former
alternative prevailed with the Mussulman, and
more than one human being is said to have been
killed and eaten by them. 1t is stated that the
sights to be seen, and not to be avoided in the
neighborhood Of Shiraz, are such that the Eu-
ropean residents will not leave their own houses
Also, between Shiraz and Bushire, thousands of
dead bodies lie unburied. Amid all these tales
Of privation and DEATH how is it that we hear
nothing of measures of relief, except now and
again by the acknowledgement of donation of
few rupees in Bombay? WHAT'S the sovereign
of Persia doing~

A PHENOMENON IN New JrRsEr.-A Ne,

A PHENOMENON IN NEW JERsEY.-A New
York paper of the 21st inst tells this story:
"The citizens of Broadway, Warren county,
| N. j., and the residents of the neighboring
townships have been greatly excited by curl
GUS phenomenon. On Monday morning, about
ten O'Clock, as a canal boat from Phillipsburg
was passing over the Seven-mile level between
New Village and Broadway, the driver of the
boat heard an unusual rumbling noise, like that
of muftied thunder, and looking ahead he saw
in the canal, about hundred yards beyond, the
water seething and boiling like a whirlpool.
Though stricken with fear, he crossed in safety
the dangerous eddy, but had not gone many
yards when he was startled by an unusual noise,
and turning, discovered that the bottom of the
canal had given way, and in a short time he was
on dry land. The water in the canal for the dis
lance of mile and a half had in wonderfully
short time disappeared in cavity, of which the
dimensions of the opening were forty by fifty
feet.
Careful Investigations were made of the
neighboring streams and the surrounding coun-
try, but no outlet for the water was discovered.
above the canal, in wood, three apertures
were made, averaging in diameter twenty by
twenty-five feet. In these holes or cavities,
rocks and trees were swallowed up. The tops
of the trees were visible to the eye, while the
trunks were entirely buried in the earth. Fis-
sures were made on the surface below the canal
to the extent OF hundreds Of yards.
"LaborerS have been constantly engaged in
filling up the hole in the canal, but as yet have
made no apparent progress. One hundred
bundles of corn stalks, together with the
branches of trees, were thrown into the cavity,
and disappeared Immediately from sight.
The cause of this phenomenon is a mystery,
which only an Agassiz can attempt to explain.
Some think that there is a cave in the hill, and
that this immense volume of water has been
deposited there by breakage in the upper layer
| Of earth surmounting the cave. Others are Of
the opinion that, this being limestone region
a spontaneous combustion of the lime has beer
going on for years, and vacuum or cavity
necessarily produced into which these waters
have been precipitated. Which of these opin
ions is the correct one will be made manifest by
future Developments The loss TO the Morris
canal company by this accident is calculated to
be about ten thousand dollars"

The holders of the confederate cotton bonds
are the most sanguine of men. If they were
not, their hopes would have been blasted long
ago. They have had occasional seasons of
dependency, but in general they retain mar
velous confidence in the ultimate success of
their claims. The treaty of Washington has
made them positively cheerful, if not exultant.
With an enviable optimism, they see in the
article providing for mixed commission to
adjust the claims of British subjects arising out
of the war, a provision which exactly meets
their case, and somebody has informed them
that, when that commission meets, it will be
"quite open" to them to lay their claims
before it, if they think best. These bondholders
held meeting in London few days ago, at
which these things, and more in the same strain,
were said. They seem to have had very pleas
ant time, exchanging mutual congratulations
on the bright prospect that the justice of these
demands will soon be admitted. If this pros
pect, such as it is, affords them pleasure, they
are made happy with enviable facility, and will,
no doubt, be able, when this source of comfort
is exhausted, to derive much satisfaction from
the artistic beauty Of the bonds which are the
vouchers for their imaginary wealth.

The association formed at the convention yes
terday, auxiliary to the Massachusetts total
abstinence society, is formed, like the parent
society, to enable its members "to protect
themselves and to save others from the evils of
intemperance, TO educate the public sentiment
of the commonwealth to the magnitude of the
evil, to organize on the broad basis of moral
and Christian effort, TO elevate the character of
society" These are worthy objects, and the
history of temperance reform proves that they
are practicable. Perhaps such rapid and
splendid success as was achieved by the early
reformers is not to be looked for, and it is pos
sible that some of the methods which they
found efficient would prove to be not so well
adapted to the somewhat changed circumstances
of the present time; but organized effort intelli-
gently directed and sustained and stimulated by
earnest Christian philanthropy cannot fail to
have an important influence for good.

Charles Reade,. RatIonaI house,

Mr.. Charles Reade's confidence in his own
ability to do anything within the range of hui
man attainments, or to show how il could be
done, is only equalled by his contempt for the
ignorance of their own business DISPLAYED by
all other people, He isat no loss to deter
mine "who shall decide when doctors disagree 4"
Whether they agree or disagree they are all sure
to be disgracefully and stupidity wrong, and Mr..
Reade alone can set them and the world right.
He knows more Of medicine and surgery than
the doctors, more of engineering than the engi-
neers, more of banking than the bankers; he
can teach lawyer how to conduct trial, and a
veteran navigator how to sail a ship. In his
numerous novels he has made opportunities for
exposing the astonishing stupidity which in his
opinion, peryades all occupations. 1t seems to
be theory Of his that the man who has given
years Of study and practice to any business, and
makes his living by it, knows, as a rule, much
less about it than he does about anything else
aud has little TO show for his labor except that
he is almost hopelessly ineapacitated for learn
ing his business of Charles Reade. the only
really competent instructor. Perhaps Il is only
because novel writing is Mr.. Reade's business
that he does not write better novels than Dick.

DAYTON, June 21.-Mrs. Vallandigham is
still unconscious. The physicians in constant
attendance are reticent as to her recovery. She
fails to recognize her most intimate friends. II
is feared that she has lost or will lose her rea-

she has encountered during the last few days in
the loss of her brother and husbond, threatens
the most fatal consequences, and that her death
is matter of brief time.
