The SENSATION OF DEowSISG.---Dr.
Hoffman, survivor of the Dixon dis
aster, thus gives a description of the SEN
sation of drowning to the Chicago Tri-
bune; Il was greatly astonished at the
number Of events that passed through my
mind while under the water. Nothing
that occurred during childhood was evil
dent, but everything which has occurred
since was about nineteen years old ap-
peared before me as if photographed. "
When he was rescued, the doctor says
THE sudden transition from the beatifc
state in the water to the dry land seemed
to have bad effect upon me, and made
me Indifferent to what was going on
around me-" Something analogous to
this is related by De Quincy out of his
own experience. What good thing it
would be for newspaper publishers if a
few hundred thousand of those fellows
who never pay little bills because "they
forgot all about it, were to be given a
view Of the great hereafter through the
medium OF water,

BoRAx AND AN fSDIAN VILLAGE FoUSD.
The San Fradcseo Bulletin says that on
the coast of Oregon, 81 miles north Of
Crescent City, the borate of lime is found
in huge boulders, weighing 200 or 800
pounds each, which are imbedded in the
clay and gravel formation. In the i'm
mediate vicinity of the mines are the
ruins of an ancient Indian village and
cemetery. Conical mounds, constructed
Of clam and mussel shells, are numerous.
Some of the mounds have been opened
during the progress of the explorations
for borax, and numerous curious relics
discovered, consisting of arrow-heads Of
flint and bone, piece of an Indian
medicine stone, spoon made from the
skull of an infant and Il portion of {
stone hatchet.

The Silver State says there is flock OF
California quails in the canyon above the
town of Unionville. They have been
seen on Christ. Lark's ranch several
times, and seem to enjoy life in the sage
brush as well as in their native chapparel
over the big mountain. How the wan
derers arrived in this canyon is not
known, though it is surmissd that they
came from Guthrie ranch, in Grass Val
ley, where n small flock, imported from
California, were set at liberty two years
ago.

IN view Of the fact that the Rocky
Mountain lines of telegraph have often
been broken during the past few months
with SHOWS and ice, and communication
between the Atlantic and Pacific cut off
for days at time, the New York Herald
suggests the propriety of making an I'M
dergrouud cable connection, as has been
done between France and Italy, under
the Alps, where such terrific storms &C.

ANOTHER old Indian mine or cave has
been discovered within nine miles of
Santa Fe. The opening in the cave or
excavation is large enough to permit one
to walk III, and SO continues for some
considerable distance, when the great
darkness prevented further progress.
Part of a basket made of very strong will
low boughs and filled with stones was
found and brought out. The impression
of those who were inside is that it is one
OF the old mines worked two or three
centuries ago.

Shooting ARRAY.


LITTLE Rock, August 81 The board
OF supervisors met in Perryville Monday,
when man named Morse, former clerk Of
the county, backed by four or five others,
entered the town. They had sworn they
intended to kill j. WI. Mathews, attor-
ney of tho court, on account of an article
published in The Gazette rejecting upon
them. They attacked Mathews in the
courthouse, breaking up the conrt.
Mathews entered store and fired upon his
pursuers without effect.
A brisk fire then opened on both sides,
during which Mathews was wounded, !,
though he managed to escape to the woods
that evening. His friends, to the number
of one hundred and fifty, entered the town,
killing aman named Trice. Morse and his
crowd had left, however. After the board
OF supervisors resumed their court Math-
ews had warrants issued for the arrest of
Morse, Hambright, the sheriff, and all
others engaged in the affair, but at latest
accounts they had not been served. The
affair creates great excitement throughout
the county, and full particulars will be
laid before the executive tonight.

In the year 1911, Sir w. Herschel an
nounced that he had (as he supposed) de-
tected changes in the Orion nebula. The
announcement appeared in connection with
very remarkable theory respecting nebule
generally--IIerschel' celebrated hypothe-
sis Of the conversion of some nebule into
stars. The astronomical world now heard
for the first time..of that self-luminous neb-
ulous matter, distributed in highly
attenuated form throughout the celestial
regions, which Herschel looked upon as the
material from which the stars have been
originally formed. There is an allusion to
this theory in those words Of the Princess
Ida:
f" There SINKS the nebulous star we call the Sun,
If that hypothesis OF theirs be sound"
And in the teaching of "comely Psyche ="
"This world was once a fluid haze Of light,
Till toward the center set the starry tides,
And edded into suns that, wheeling, cast
The planets."
Few theories have met with o stranger fate.
Received respectfully at first on the au-
thority Of the great astronomer who pro.
pounded it-then in the zenith of his fame
the theory gradually found a place in
nearly all astronomical works. But, in
the works OF distinguished living
astronomer, 'The bold hypothesis
did not receive that confirmation
from the labors Of subsequent in
quirers which is so remarkable in the case
ofmany Of Hcrschel's other speculations. !"
1t came to pass at length that the theory
was looked upon by nearly all English
astronomers as wholly untenable. In Ger
many it was never abandoned, however,
and great modern discovery has suddenly
brought it into general favor, and
has in this. as in many other instances,
vndicated Herschel's claim to be looked
upon as the most clear-sighted, as well as
the boldest and most original, Of astronom-
ical theorizers. Science Monthly

TIE Norfolk Virginian of yesterday
urges in an able article the Importance Of
Southern Pathological Association, auxili-
ary to the American Society. 1t also
earnestly urges Virginia fruit-growers
everywhere to save their finest specimens
of fruit, especially apples, and forward
them to the meeting of the American Po-
mological Society, which takes place on the
10th of next month in Boston. We heart
ily commend both these suggestions of the
Virginian.
Our fruit-growers have an opportunity to
do great service to the state by giving her
productions a full display in Boston.
Representatives Of all the world will be
there. We can advertise our fine soil and
climate in most substantial and practical
way, and help to create demand for its
splendid fruits. Virgin ia apples are already
much sought for abroad, and cannot be ex-
celled by any produced on the globe. Let
us all do our best at the anniversary of
American fruit-growers.

THE Conservatives ask the colored
man for his vote. They claim to be his
best friends, and assert that the white
Republicans only W ish to get his vote to
elevate themselves to power. But in the
same breath they declare that the Repub-
lican party desires to set mp tile negro
Ouc,' the aohite man.
That is, first, the Republican party will
not give the negro office but only accept
his vote to secure power.
2. The Repub lcan party will give the
negro all the offices and social equality be-
sides.
This is the consistency to which pa,ti-
sanship leads men who in other matters
have fair sense. Can any man conceive of a
more aggravated case of mental obliquity !?
Under the influence Of great truths men
grow to giants in day! Conversely, un-
der the sway of prejudice and false hood,
they shrink to intellectual dwarfs.

SAN FRANCISCO, August 21.-The
Democratic party in this city is squarely
divided. Each wing has put legislative
ticket in the field. Ex-Mayor McCoppin
has developed into an out and out railroad
man, and is the railroad candidate for state
senator, together with james Clarke. The
Democratic municipal convention, which is
claimed to be anti-railroad, has nominated
Philip Roache and A. j. Rowe for state
senators. The tax-paying independent
ticket for this city is gaining strength daily.
The same is true of the independent anti
railroad movement throughout the state.
