THE LARGEST DEBT IN THE WoRLp -
When the German indemnity is paid, France
will have the largest national deb, of any
country in the world amounting in round nun.
bers to ST. SOC. 600, 600, or more than double
the present amount of the public debt of the
United States. An idea of this unprecedented
national burden may be formed when we state
that 1t represents a sum equal t" S125 per
head of the entire population of France.

CAVE DISCOVERED We learn that a cave
of large dimensions has been discovered on
the land of Mrs. Clary West, formerly owned
by Mrs. Lucy L. Eastman, about 81 miles
below Harrisonburg, l mile from the Valley
Turnpike, on the right hand side The cave
has been explored for a distance of about $50
yards, and reveals many of the wonders usual
ly found in suhterranean abysses of this kind.
The entrance to the cave is rather ahrub,. but
immediately after getting in, the passage is
easy, the rocky ceiling rising at least 6 feet
above the head. of the tallest man. The cell
ing and sides are Of solid rock, and are filled
with notwithstanding and curious shaped crea>
tons of different kinds. A party of eentle-
men penetrated the cave n few weeks agn for
the distance of $50 yards, aid found three
different routes or passages in the cave. 1t
was first discovered a short time since, BY a
gentleman of the neighborhood, Mr.. j.. Har-
vey Taylor, who was looking for a calf that
had fallen into the mouth of the cave. This
newly discovered cave is said to abound in all
the strangely>wrought curiosities which are
found in such hidden recesses. What is most
remarkable about this cave is its strange loca-
ton, underneath a level field, which has been
in cultivation for many years.
