Truth About Bald Mountain.
SPARTASRrRG. Nav 26

SPARTASBURG, May 20.
In accordance with your instructions
to visit Bald Mountain and report the
facts in regard to the alleged rupture Of
that famous peak, ! left Spartanburg last
Thursday morning, and after fatiguing
ride Of forty miles through the mountains
reached Bald Mountain next day. Find
ing it impossible to reconcile conflicting
rumors, or TO ascertain the truth By ;:-
quiry, procured guides and ascended
the peak the same afternoon. But one
man had ever seen the fssure, and him I
could not find. After a long and painful
search, however, we finally CHANGED upon
the object of our quest, and found il 10
be crack about one hundred yards ia
length, about four feet in width, and Of
unknown depth. The crevice, which
runs nearly due cast and west, is parallel
with and but short distance from the
brow of the precipice, which marks the
southern boundary OF the mountain.
That it is OF recent origin was plainly to
be seen, and is further proved by the
freshly torn roots of the trees growing
near it. Careful investigation leads me
to the conclusion that the crevice merely
marks the separation Of very large Sec
ton Of the cliff from the body of the
mountain, and that the break will result,
sooner or later, in q land slide, differing
only in point Of extent from others like it
and of frequent occurrence in this locali-
ty. There has been no appearance Of
smoke, nor smell of sulphur, and the
mountain experienced its last ague at
least year before tho crack appeared.
Whether or not the latter was caused by
the former is thing no fellow can find
out He,rs and Courier.

Pennsylvania politics have long puz-
zied the people of the United States, but
If the statements made by certain news
papers be true. very remarkable condi.
ton Of affairs exist in that State. The
recent Democratic State Convention
nominated ex- Congressman Dill for Gov
ernor, ard adopted resolutions denounc-
ing the Republican party for the election
frauds, and declaring in favor of the
greenback currency. NJ. Dill was SEN
ator Wallace's candidate, and it is an
nounced that there is an agreement be-
tween Senators Wallace and Cameron,
of Pennsylvania; that Cameron, who il
q staunch Republican, is TO be reelected
to the Senate this fall, and Wallace, who
IL Democrat, is also TO be reelected
four years hence. These two men con-
troll their respective parties, and, by q
contract, it is alleged they are to keep
each other in position. 1t is thought the
Democratic party will succeed in Penn
sylvania next fall, and, If 80, we hope
that Speaker Randall's influence will
prevail in the Legislature and secure the
defeat of Mr.. Cameron, thereby giving
the Democratic party of the nation the
benefit Of the State victory.
