The famine andspestience in Persia, seem to
be abating. Terrible as the truth has been,
some of the accounts of the English papers
from which most of our information on the sub
feet has been Obtained were probably exaggera-
ted. OF course, We can have no conception
here, even with the most faithful descriptions
before us, Of the destitution misery crime and
desolation which this famine has caused but
the percentage of deaths, the absence of food,
and the deSertion of whole districts have appar-
emily been oyerstated. The impression con-
veyed, however, is perhaps more nearly correct
than if the bare truth had been told. The suf
fering is by no means at an end yet, but the
drouth is over, and there is reason to hope that
there VIII not be another failure of the harvests.
A correspondent at Teheran, early in January
thankfully announces that it was showing
heavily, and at Tabreez abundance of snow and
rain are reported. For two years the country
has been cursed with drouth, and there have
been no harvests. Pestilence, the inevitable
companion Of famine, has also ravaged the
country. The latest reports, though they
somewhat relieve the horrible pictures
which earlier letters have given, say
that the country is fall of wandering
beagars and dead bodies are frequently seen by
the road sides Crowds were seeking shelter and
relief in the large towns; in Tabreez 5000 were
dependent upon aims, and the mosques were
crowded with the poor wretches, many of whom
died daily OF cold and hunger. The governor
had quartered many of the most needy upon
The rich merchants in the neighborhood, and
also ordered the sale from the government stores
Of one hundred bushels of corn daily at penny
pound. This, it was thought, would bring out
tAe private hoarCls Of grain, as there was pros
pect OF a bOuntiful harvest this year, and it
would be useless to hold it longer in the hope
of higher prices. The cholera had disappeared
from the province of Tabreez, and trade is said
to be reyiving, being already more active than
il has been for years. Persia is not depopulated,
pof likely TO be, but the country has suffered
from a scourge more fearful than any nation
has endured in recent timns.

NATURAL GAS FoUNTAINs.-ln paper re-
Gently read before the New York association of
practical engineering, Prof, II. Wurtz gave the
following account of natural Gas wells:
It appears that in the state Of New York alone
there are three great belts Of gas-bearng fOrma-
tons, each two hundred miles long, an average
Of ten broad, and having a thickness esti-
mated at one hundred feet. This would sup
port three thousand wells, yielding gas equal in
heating power to fourteen tons of anthracite
daily, for one hundred years. Similar forma-
tons are found in Canada, Ohio and Penusyl-
vaula, but perhaps the most important is the
immense area Of the Devonian and Silurian
basins Of the great lakes and the Mississippi
valley, where there are i've, perhaps six, great
beds Of snch rock.
Some Of the gas wells give a most enormous
quantity OF gas. One on the Little Kanawha,
nine hundred feet deep and four-inch bore, has
q twO-inCh pipe leading from il distance OF 4
mile, where it feeds the furnaces of twentv-eight
steam boilers Of tWelve-hOrse power each, besides
fifty stores aud large number Of jets for illumi-
nation. There is one in Ontario county, n. y,
$40 feet deep aud ivG-inch bore, which gave
fame thirty feet high. the flow OF gas being
about five cubic feet per second, or upwards Of
100000 per day. The gas is nearly equal to six
candle power. At VenangO, Pa, gas rises from
wells under pressure Of two hundred pounds
to the square inch and instead of being burned
under boiler is run direct into engine cylin-
ders in lieu OF steam. AT Erie, Pa wells can
be sunk for Sf5OO which will give gas enough,
burned in the furnace of a steam generator, to
produce zoo horse power.

MIUEs O'REILLY found his counterpart dur
ing the German war in the person of the brave
fuSieer kutschke This redoubtable soldier and
minstrel sang the deeds of The German warriors
with so much gusto and humor that he soon
conquered all hearts, and his songs went up
from almost every camp and fIom every tiresidc
of the fatherland Ofcourse, everybody wanted
to know the veritable Kutschke, bur this favor
was not then TO be granted to common mortals,
and mystery only enhanced the desire. Pre-
tenders by scores presented themselves, but their
claims were soon found to he spurious, and the
public took TO guessing everybody, even Bis
marck. AT last the enigma was said to be solved.
Dr. Grieben, one Of the editors of the Cologne
Gazette, has just published in Berlin work en-
titled 'Ihe Songs Of Kutschke before the Bar
His investigation is very thorough and circum-
stantial, and his decision is that the famous lays
are the productions Of pastor Of Meckleuburg,
0y the name Of PistOrius. But the editors of
Dahcim still claim that the secret is with them,
and that IN due time they will bring the soldier
poet from his obscurity. and introduce him TO
his numerous friends.-ScrjbBer'S FOR AprU

| LINCOLN'S DREAM.-Ihe president remarked
| that the news would come soon, aud come IA
| voraby, he had no doubt, for he had last night
his usual dream, which had preceded nearly ey-
cry important event of the war. | inquired the
particulars Of this remarkable dream. He said
it was in my departmental related to the wa
ter; that he seemed 10 be in a singular and in
describable vessel, but always the same, and
that he was moving with great rapidly toward
q dark and indefinite shore; that he had had
this singular dream preceding the firing on
Sumter, the battles OF Bull Run, Anhetam,
Gettysburg, Stone River Vicksburg, Whining
ton, etc Gen. Grant remarked with some en-
phasis and asperity, that Stone River was no
TctOry-that few such victories would have
ruined the country, and he knew of no impor-
tant results from it. The president said
that perhaps he should not altogether
agree with him, but whatever might be the
facts, his singular dream preceded that fight.
Victory did not always follow his dream, but
the event and results were important. He had
no doubt that a battle had taken place or was
about being fought, "and Johnston will be beat
en-, for had this strange dream again last night
1t must relate to Sherman; my thoughts are in
that direction, and know of no other very i'm
portant event which is likely just now to occur"
Great events did indeed follow. Within a few
hours the good and gentle as well as truly great
man who narrated his dream was assassiuated,
and the murder which closed forever his earthly
career affected for years, and perhaps forel er,
the welfare of his country" Lincoln and John
son" By Gideon WelleS, IN Apra GdlQgg.

An ANECDofE OF RIcH.-Of Rich, the mana
ger and lannon's harlequin, "a story is told which
is probably the original of several almost sim
liar ones, with the advantage of being true.
One night, returning from the Portugal street
theatre in a hackney coach, he ordered the man
to drive to the Sun tavern, Clare market. Pass
ing one Of the parlOr windows that was invit-
ngly open, Rich sprang out Of the coach
into the room. The cOachman Just then halt
ing, and finding the vehicle empty, slammed the
steps, cursed the cheat who had bilked him, and
mounted the box to DIVE off. At this moment
Rich jumped back, and putting out his head
told the man to turn the coach and
set him down. After he got out, Rich swore at
the stupid fellow, and offered bin his fare.
Jarvey declined; he did not like the look Of
things, and said stouty his master had ordered
him not to take any money at all that night.
Rich replied, Your master is a fool here Is
shilling for yourself" But the man was resolute,
regained his box, and as he dove off shouted,
mo, no, Mr.. Devil, know you in spite of Your
shoes, aud so you're made fool of for once"
This story is usually told of an actor, who, on
being set down at his destination, in the dark,
kept getting our at one door of the vehicle and
gong in at the other, till the coacnman, aston
ished at such an endless procession fed for ter

TERRIFIC BEAR FIGHT.

Last Saturday evening, Washington
Obenchain, who resides on Big Butte
Creek, about 80 miles from Jackson
vile, noticed that something had been
disturbing bis cattle, and on making
search, found the intruder to be q
very large grizzly bear; Early next
morning, Mr.. Obenchain, accompanied
by his two brothers, took their guns
and dogs and started in search OF the
grizzly, and the dogs succeeded IN
overhanling him in about four miles
travel, bringing him to stand-stilI.-
The men spurred up their horses and
were soon on the ground, which is
known as S0-acre prairie, dismounted.
and one OF them fired on him, but
without any perceiyable effect. except
to start him for the brush. Washing
ton Obenchain then mounted his
horse and followed him into the
brush, where the dogs had again
brought him to bay. Mr.. Obenchain,
finding himself in close quarters, rails
ed his gun and let him have load OF
buckshot, which set bruin in excellent
fighting humor, and he turned on him
for revenge, knocking his horse from
under him, and was using him up
pretty fast, when the dogs, who were
vigorously attacking the bear in the
rear, attracted bruins attention, saw
ing their master from further mutiIa-
tion, until one of the other men came
up and gave him dead shot; which
caused him to retire in disgust, and
the dogs then took satisfaction out of
him. The bear was of enormous size
and would weigh about l 200 pounds.
One of his fore feet measured II
inches in length and 9Iirches in width.
This bear has been a pest to the citi-
zens of that section for years. We
learn from DR.. Aiken, who dressed
the wounds of Mr. ObenchaiD, that he
received twelve flesh wounds, nine of
which are serious and the rest slight,
the most dangerous being where the
bear bit him through the legs. Mr.
Obenchain is convalescing, bnt 1t is
not likely that he will banker after
another bear fight soon.

The TRIAL OF BAzAINE.-Notwith-
standing the silence that is kept in
the affair Bazaine, as the French
term it, it is known that the officers
charged with the inquiry are actively
proceeding with their task. The
principle point was to ascertain if the
accused had beed informed in good
time of the march of Marshal Nc
Mahon toward the north. The in.
quiry has now obtained positive proof
that at the time the conference be-
tween the chiefs of the army of the
Rhine took place in the farm Of Gri-
mont THAT is to say on the 26th),
Marshal Bazaine had received and
held in his own hand the dispatch
sent by McMahon, although he feign-
ed to be ignorant of its existence
More than seven couriers has been
sent to Bazaine by Mcmahon. Three
succeeded in crossing the Prussian
lines, and obtained admittance TO the
Commander of Metz. They have
been examined by General de Rivi-
ere, and will be summoned by the
Council Of War, when the public de-
bates take place. Another important
point that appears to have been
established by the inquiry is that
Marshal Bazaine kept up a corr
respondence with the enemy. a
witness has been found who served
as interpreter for the Marshal in his
interview with Prince Frederick
Charles. The existence of this inter-
prefer was pointed out, we under
stand, by some of the most honor
able Inhabitants OF Metz.
