EIO. 600. to erect a Memorial Building, to train
Medical Missionaries, under the Edinburgh Medi-

enterprise he so warmly supported. The sum OF
s6OOs has been already subscribed, and the
Directors Of the Edinburgh Medical Missionary

Remarkable Phenomenon.

New orleans Plcayune.l
d. Two miles southwest of Milneburg,
and about a half a mile from Lake
Pontchartrain, there occurred on Fri
day night a most wonderful phenom-
enon. The earth for about thirty
acres became suddenly depressed, sink
ing fully thirty feet, and trees on the
margin tumbled into the chasm. When
there, on Saturday evening, a very dis
tinct rumbling noise could be heard at
intervals, whilst in the center of the
ave flashes of light sprang up to the
height of fifteen or twenty feet. A
sulphurous odor is so strong on the mar
gin of the chasm that. it is approached
with difficulty, and is percePtible at the
distance of a mile from the spot. Where
fore is this, and what does it mean? l
am a seafaring' man, ami have recently
noticed a change in the Gulf Stream.
1t Sets in with a powerful current
through the Ghandeleur Islands, Missis,

Can it be, by some sudden %coavulsion
