From the Tedesco rocks, on the outer
point at Swampscott, recently, there was
O scene of awful subGmity. A heavy
surf during the day had been rolling in
upon the. beach, and breaking with mag
nihcent effects upon the rocks, while the
broad expanse of the ocean was white
with the foam of million caps which
were dashed into spray by the gale. AS
the night came on and deepened, the
wonderful phosphoreseent light, far
more brilliant than anything ever seen
upon our shores, was displayed in a
pageant of indescribable beauty. AS
far as the eye could reach along the
rocky coast the breaking surf was
turned to molten silver, and then to
deepest emerald, and then to the mi
mute sparkling fires one sees flashing
from coronet OF diamonds In artificial
Light. 1T was sea Of glittaring gems.
The crest of every wave was a line Of
massive silver, and the seething wal ers,
changed from palest blue to most brill
liant green, emitted light which
CLEANED upon rock and grass, and was
reflected upon the clouds above. AT
midnight at the full tide, the splendor
of the scene was beyond words. Wave
after wave broke upon the line Of rocks,
showing a wall of colored fires, forty,
and at times even fifty teet, IN height.
The ocean seemed afame. The crest of
every wave was q coruscation of gems
sparkling with more than rainbow hues.
The intensity of color all luminous with
hOsphorescent fire, was far more won
derfrl than that produced by any me-
chanical chemistry Footprints Of sill
yer in the sands; handfuls of diamonds
for the graspipg, aud although SO fleet
ing, they vii remain q possession for
ever.
Standing thus in the darkness and
loneliness of midnight, at the edge Of
the vast, turbulent ocean of light, with
the cleaning splendor Of advancing and
retreating waves, the vision of the
apocalypse was for the time made real.
Ia imagination it was city garnished
with all manner OF precious stones,
jasper and emerald and chrysolite, and
the streets were ofpure silver, as it we're
transparent glass. " And saw no
temple therein, for the Lord God AL
mighty was the temple Of it. And the
city had no need of the sun, neither of
the moon to shine fla III, for the glory of
