AsDlyer Getting Evidence OF the
Terrible Power Of the Creature.
IRON the WaTnanbool (AultnlIl Standard.
Mr.. smals had fred of aehItge Of
dynamite and displaced large quantity
Of stones at the bottom Of the river. he
went down to prepare for lifting these
stones by the aid Of chains into the punt.
While engaged in rolling over a large
stone he saw something which he sup
posed ~ The time wEsGpIece Of clean
looking kelp moving about In front Of
where he was working.
In a few seconds this object came in
contact with the divers arm, abontEhich
it quickly coiled, partly holding him.
Immediately Mr.. snale touched what
was coiled round his arm be became
aware Of his position, and tried 10 extri.
cate himself, but found Il 4 more diff.
cult Job than he anticipated. Catching
hold Of the part hanging from the arm,
he walked toward the end Of il, when he
saw he was firmly held by one Of the
feelers OF n large octopus, better known
among sailors a. the devil fish. .-s
Mr.. smAle tried to pullthe feb ofFfrom
ia hold OF the rocks, but without effect
for some time. AT last the tish, perhaps
thinking be had not got sufficient hold or
power over his prey, loosened itself from
the stones and quickly transferred its
feelers or arms around the divers legs
and body. In this position, Mr., smale
thought the best thing for him TO do was
to get on deck as soon as possible, and he
quickly made tracks for the ladder, which
reached from the deck OF the punt 10 the
bottom Of the river.
The diver was certainly acurious look
ing object when he came up. This huge,
ugiy.looking thing appeared to be en-
tangled all over him, holding him In a
firm embrace. However, Mr.. Smale's
fellow. wor klnen were not long in freeing
him from the uniriendly hug oil his sub
marine companion. ~.
The body portion Of the octopus was
only about the size Of large soup plate,
with eyes in its head like those Of sheep;
but II possessed nine arms, each about
four feet in length, at the butt as thick as
a mans wrist, tapering of at the end 10
a. fne point as that of pen.knifei thus
il could spread over an area Of nine feet
in diameter. Mr.. Smale declares II was
powerful enough to keep three men un-
| der water.

The Doylestown PENN intelligence
publishes the following in regard TO an
over issue Of bonds Of the State oil Penn
sylvania, which no one seems able to &C.
count for:
An oyer-issue OF Pennsylvania bonds,
10 the amount OF 800, 600, has lately come
10 the knowledge Of our State authorities.
1t appears that in the year 1852 the Leg.
islature authorized a loan Of 81 ,00O,OOO,
10 meet the financial necessities oil the
times, which were then very pressing.
This VISA found 10 be not sufficient, and
nj the next session an additional loan Of
100000 was authorized. The bonds oil
the last issue were dated August ] 1853,
and were payable in twenty-five years.
William Bigler was Governor and John
NJ. gickel State Treasurer at that time,
and all the bonds wero duly signed by
them. It turned out that the whole
amount OF money for the last issue OF
S5OOyO00 was not required, and after
100000 had been sold, the remaining
100000 we're left in the possession OF
the Girard Bank, Philadelphia, which
WAS klen tlC uuAuClhi ahehh VI huS
State. In process Of time the State
officers were changed, and no one
remembered the fact that 100000 Of
regularly signed but unissued bonds were
in existence. They remained in forget.
iulness until within few months, when
the Treasury officials became aware that
they had somehow gotten into the mar.
ket, and were likely to be presented for
REDEEM ption. On the first oil August a
number OF these bonds, amounting in
value to $4,000, were presented at the
Treasury, they being due and payable on
that day. The question as 10 whether
they should be recognized or not was
submitted by Mr.. Noyes to the Attorney
General, and that officer has advised
their payment on the ground that they
are genuine bonds, now In the hands Of
innocent holders. How they ever got
out Of the custody Of the bank and into
the possession Of outside parties 10 yet 4
deep mystery. II Ia said that the bank
ledger containing the record Of bonds
disposed Of under this loan has disap-
peared. No coupons belonging TO the
oyer.issue Of bonds has ever been pre-.
scented tor payment, and their appearance
for redemption is the first tangible evil
dence Of their existence that has come to
light,

HEAVENS HARVESr-HOME.

In the happy harvest fields, oh, what eadsome
singing!
Men and maids and children joining in the strain
For in merry triumph they are homeward bring
ing,
Poppy -wreathed and loaded high, the last har-
vest vain.
"Over now the sowing and the reapipg,
Earth has given her fruit into our keeping;
Over now the labor and the doubling,
We are bringing home the harvest, shouting
Harvest-home harvest home"
In silent upper room a sad household kneeling,
Weeping, praying, but, alas! uncontrolled,
Though sense of rapture through the room is
stealing
As the waiting angels guard well the dying bed.
Waiting till some mighty word is spoken.
Waiting, with some marvellous sweet token,
Till, amid the praying and the weeping,
Breaks the harvest song Of Deaths great reap
The spirits harvest home.
Weeping mortals only heard just gentle signing
Just n futter, as of WINGS stir the still warm
ar;
Only heard whisper. "Prav, for she is DYING
Only heard the broken words of that parting
prayer.
Bat the angels heard mighty singing,
Heard il through the endless spaces ringing,
Heard it above earth's tumult and her weeping,
Heaven rejoicing for one spirit keeping,
Through all her golden streets, harvest-home.
