A cave has recently been discovered in
Marion county, Mo which promises to rival
all others in extent and beauty. Large
succeed each other, their height varying
from 80 to 100 feet. The dropping water
has formed the most beautiful stalactites,
and the ceiling is studded with decorations
of groups of spar in a variety of figures,
roof above. Others resemble crystal pen
dants of a great variety of shades and sizes.
A pistol fred in one of these vast subter-
ranean caverus wakes echoes that reverbe-
rate for long time, causing deafeuing
Cave. In one place q transparent sheet of
limestone extends from ceiling to floor like
a curtain. In another apartment is a sub
terranean river that Aows through the cave.
In still another room is bottomless pit,
whose interior has never been exploded. In
fact, the wonders of this cave seem never
to end.

GEN. MosBY's WIFE.-The following obitu-
airy appeared in the last number of the Louis
Vile Catholic Adroeatc
The many friends and acquaintance of bIrs
Pauline Mosby will be shocked by the an
nouncement of her death which occurred at
her residence in Stanton, Va, on the 10th
inst She died of pulmonary consumption.
Mrs. Mosby was the eldest daughter of the,
lamented Beverly L Clarke, of kentucky.
She was educated at old St. Mary's Academy,
in Nashville, Tenn, where she won the lasting
love and admiration of the COED Sisters aud
the entire school, and through life has ever
been noted for her piety and intelligence. In
1856 she was married to John s.. Mosby of
Virginia, who afterwards distinguished him
Federal army. The marriage ceremony WAS
performed in Nashville, Tenn, by Rev. Two
Schacht, of happy memory. As an instance of
Mrs. Mosby's perseverance,, when the war
ended in Virginia she was unwilling for her
husband to surrender until she could first see
President johnson, and obtain from him a
guarantee of his safety. The President, al
though q warm personal friend of her father,
gave her poor comfort but q woman of suoh
spirit was not to be bahled, and by her tact
obtained for him pass to Gen. Grants head
quarters. The General treated her with the
utmost kindness and gave all the protection
necessary for the safety of her husband. Hence
the amicsble relations between President
six children, all we'll Instructed in the Catholic
religion, besides she has been the instrument
in the hands of God for converting great
msny-including the sisters of Col. Mosby,
two of whom have attached themselves to
religious orders.

d. 8. Fairchild, J. NJ. Earnest.
PROF. HEINRIcHs, In his report of the
State weather phenomena for the decade
ending Jan. 30, says:
The most remarkable features of the
decade were the two great depressions of
the temperature, On the exact dates pub
lished in our January probabilities from
month TO a week In advance The first
descent, for the 23d and GATH, amounted TO
thirty-five degrees; the second, for the 2sth
and 29th, To fifty-six degrees In fifteen
hours. This last change was brought
about by q regular blizzard" which
here travelled nearly 500 miles in twenty
four hours, and when at its height reached
velocity OF over twenty five miles an
hour. This storm was introduced in
Northeastern Central Iowa by regular
thunder storm.
The temperature rose again, making the
31st quite warm day; but already in the
forenoon of this day more or less brill
liant solar halo was observed at most sta
tons in Iowa, thus indicating in advance
the actual coming OF the colder February
weather, as predicted in our last Iowa
Probabilities. This halo was especially
complete and brilliant in the northeast, ac-
cording to the description of Mr.. +. H..
Robbins, Volunteer Observer at Waukon
The mean temperature OF January was
26 s degrees, which is 1874 degrees above
normal. As December was 81 degrees
above normal, The prediction made over
two months ago in regard TO our present,
winter Is fully confirmed, whatever NAV
be the character Of February. February
will be "a cold month this year, consider
bly, below normal.
