ABATH IN THE DEAD SEA.-Mr. G..
A. Kingsbury writes as follows in
Forest and Stream of bath in the
Dead Sea; ''Reaching at last this
most remarkable of all the seas and
lakes on our globe we prepared to
take bath-and such a bath can
hardly expect ever to take again. l
had previously bathed in numerous
seas, lakes and rivers, but never did
l enjoy such bath as this. The
specific gravity of the water is such
from its holding in solution so large
proportion of salt (264 per ct. that
one floats upon its surface like
cork. At. the time there was
only a gentle ripple upon the sea,
and being a good swimmer l at once
struck out into deep water. 1 soon.
found that l could not only swim
and float with wonderful ease, but
that 1 could actually walk in the
water, sinking only to the arm-pits.1
Discovering this fact, I made for the
shore, and taking DR.. c., one of our
party, who could not swim, by the
hand, led him into the sea where
the water was many fathoms deep.
At first he was quite reluctant to
follow me, but he soon gained conf
dence on finding there was no
danger of sinking, and he enjoyed
the novel bath as much as if he had
been an expert swimmer. Should the
bather allow the water to get into
his eyes or mouth he would suffer
considerable abatement in his enjoy
ment on account of its extremely salt,
bitter, and irritating nature. No fish
can live in this sea; but various kinds
of ducks abound here at certain sea-
sons of the year. The water was as
clear as ordinary sea-water, its tenn
perature was agreeable, and it has
an oily feeling and altogether its
action on the surface of the body
was such as to develop those pleas
urable sensations pertaining to the
sense of touch, accompanied by the
most delightful exhilaration. OF all
the baths in the world, give me a
bath in the Dead Sea-"

HISTORY REPEATING ITsELF.- It
seems that Pharaoh of Egypt did not
have a monopoly of plaques, for
there are a few more left in addition
to the grasshopers. which are making
their presence felt in Lafayette
county, Missouri. A few days since a
terrible storm of wind and hail passed
over the central portion of the State,
doing great damage to the crops.
And since then it is said millions of
toads have made their appearance in
Lafayette county,a and the farmers are
much alarmed from apprehensions of
the double invasion of toads and
grasshoppers. Thus they are receiv-
ing, in installments, the plaques
which infested Egypt during the
time of the prophet Moses. If the
Lafayette county people only had a

DIsTmIER PLEADS GUILTY.
Sr. IouIs, Nov s, 1875
In the Whskey Ring cases the proceedings OF the
Grand Jury regarding 0rvil Grant and General Bah
cock have not yet been made known. The rumor that
appeared in several papers here to the effect that
they had both been indicted is now believed
70 bo false, and the probability Is that
Indictment win be found against either
Of them That Patrick the ex United States District
Attorney is indicted with Chester H. Krum and others,
there IS little doubt AS nearly be ascertained,
three Of the Grand Jury in favor Of indicting
Grant and Babcock but the counsel objected. This
seems queer. in view Of the fact that United States
District Attorney Dyer had been exhibiting letter
from President Grant, in which he demanded the
prosecution OF the guilty ones 20 the bitter end.
MOST SIGNIFICANT EVENT
In the Whiskey Ring matters here to-day was the plea
OF guilty entered by r. 4. Jonctt of the indicted
dsters Jonett had heretofore declared his determi
nation not 10 plead guilty. and it had been recently
charged by the Cincnna Gazette and other papers that
he would not confess because he partner Of Col
ecor Casey the Presidents brother nlaw and that the
government dare not prosecute him. This story was
believed by large number OF the people, and the plea
ol guilty was surprise 70 many Jonett Is charged
with deirauding the government out Of $50 600, and
his distillery the most extensive in ST. Louis is under
seizure.
THE PETIT JURY
which Is 70 try the whskcy cases was organized to-
day. Judge Treat cautoning them against the Efforts
that are likely to be made Tor their corruption The
Grand Jury brought in four indictments today
only of which is said to be for Whskey Ring frauds
The indicted party is repued to be Jonah Torina
OF the wealthiest liquor dealers Of ST. Louis Several
whiskey cases have been set down for trial this and
next week.
ExSupervisor McDonald's trial comes Off on Monday
next, and Chief Clerk Avery's has been fixed for the
18th inst The cases against Mckee and Mcclure will
come Up next week and will be fixed for trial. II is
stated that Colonel John A. Joyce Is to be brought
down from Jefferson City TO appear before the Grand
Jury, he having offered to gve startling testl-
mony about the operations of the Ring in ST. Louis and
elsewhere.
