ANOTHER GREAT CAVE DISCOV-
Erred IN KENTUCKY,

Cincinnati. June PA special to the
Commercial from Glasgow Junction, KY,
says another wonderful cave has recent
ly been discovered near this town. It
has already been explored for distance
of twenty.three miles in another direc.
ton, called the short route. The ave.
nues are very wide. A span of horses
can easily be driven through for dis.
tanCe of IL miles. Three rivers, wide
and very deep, are encountered on the
long route. One of them is navigable
IA miles, until the passages become too
narrow to admit boat. This forms the
third or river route. which has to be ex.
plored In boat. The cave is wonderful
beyond description, and far surapasses
in grandeur the Mammoth or any cave
ever before discovered. Several num-
mified remains have been discovered in
one of the large rooms. They were re-
posing in stone collins, rudely construct.
ed, and from appearances may have been
in this cave for centuries They present
every appearance of Egyptian mum
mics. Great excitement prevails over
this very important discovery. Edwin
Mortimore, of Chestnut street, Louis
vile, purchased three of the mummies,
and has them now in his possession.
Major Geo. NJ. Proctor, of Glasgow June.
tion, KY, purchased the remainder of
the mummies from the owner of the
cave, Thomas Kelly. He is, or rather
was, few days ago, very poor man,
struggling to make a payment on farm
of "a acres, upon which, by mere acci-
dent, the entrance to the wonderful cave
was discovered. He realized about S4OO
from the sale of the mummies, and now
is offered $40 900 cash for the cave. The
entrance to the cave is within the limits
of the town, and is only about two min
utes walk from the depot, which makes
it very valuable indeed, as visitors will
not be compelled to travel five miles in
a stage coach, as they do if desirous of
visiting the Mammoth Cave. which is
five miles from this town. In fact, all
the celebrated caves in Kentucky are To-
Gated in this immediate vicinity. The
surface is very much broken, full Of ele-
Vations and depressions, with everything
to indicate that there were volcanic erup.
tons or violent upheavals of the earth
at some period.

"RAPID TRANSIT" in New York by the
Elevated Railway, appears to be an ac.
complished fact. The danger of train
running off the track isguarded against
by placing a guard on both sides of the
rail, of heavy beams lined with iron, SO
that, as the wheels leave the track
they are still held in place. The success
of such roads, on both the east and west
sides of New York, or the less popular
underground railway, such as London
has for its needs, is important for New
York. The street railroad running par
allel with the elevated road will reduce
their fares, morning and evening, to
three cents. On the elevated railroad
four car trains will be run at intervals OF
two and three minutes, and it is believed
the line will carry $4,000 passengers a
day.

WHEN Mr.. Beatty asserted in the pres
ence of the Republican State convention
of Ohio last week, that every single day
for the past year the administration has
lost friends, and that Republicans would
insure the defeat OF their ticket if they
attempted to endorse the administration,
he declared the truth. Yet their failure
to endorse him would have rendered
their prospects for success next fall still
more Uncertain. By indorsing the adj
ministration they indorsed fraud and
usurpation; by refusing an endorsement
they would have openly repudiated his
Southern policy, which in many respects
is based upon principles of honesty and
justice. The prediCament is indeed a
grave one, but Republicans have made
their own bed, in which they must lie
and die.-Btaler Co. Democrat.

WILL the Plain Dealer brace up and

or is it sorry that the Democratic House
conspiracy to destroy the army has been
thwarted by the Senator No long. wind
ed explanations are desired; simply a
plain, direct answer. Will the p. d.,
give itP-Leader.
We have no objections. A matter Of
five thousand men in fixing the strength
of the army is not worth quarreling
about. The great point in this question
was the employment of troops to boost
up failing party. That abuse being
done away with, we are quite content
with force oftwenty. FIVE thousand men.
We never heard before that the PROPOSE
tion to reduce the army by five thousand
men was a conspiracy to destroy the
army" but the army as used under the
Republican party was a conspiracy to
destroy the freedom of the elective fran
chise.-PLain Dealer.

The liveliest fighting in Texasj just now
is between Major Jones's Rangers and
the robber gangs whom he is following
up to their lairs in the thinly settled
frontier counties. These brigapds are
renegade white men, Americans and Eu'
ropeans, but commonly Texans to the
manor born. They raid upon unguard-
ed ranches, and occasionally make a
dash into village and rob store. They
sometimes go disguised as Indians, and,
as the ocean pirates Of century ago, they
act on the principle that dead men tell
no tales, their crimes are usually laid to
the Indians or the Mexicans. At pres.
ent the Bass Rangers are receiving the
attention Of the Texas authorities, and
several of its members have been killed
in skirmishes with State troops and Sher.
ifs posses. So far the robbers have the
worst Of it, and they have taken to hills
impossible by horses.
