ANEW JERSEY vEsUvrus.
The Crater of an Extinct Volcano Found
In the Orange Mountains.

The Orange mountains have always
been considered one of the redeemlng
features Of Eastern New Jersey. But
for this fine range OF chestnut-clad
hills the geographers Of EsseN county
might be excused for believing, with
the contemporaries of Columbus, that
the earth Ia flat. The Orange noun.
tains are their pride and JOY, the Jer-
seyman's picnie-gTound, the locality OF
mysterious robberies and murders, the
supposed winter resort OF tho seaside
mesquite, and at Inst something has
actually been found which should give
these humble hills pre-eninent
position IN the Appalachian system.
The crater OF an extinct volcano has
been discovered In the mountains near
Orange, and hundreds Of visitors daily
crowd around the Interesting spot
The genuineness Of the discovery is
asserted upon authority OF State Geolo-
glai Cooke and many other scientific
men. The prevailing geological struc-
tuTe of that part of the Blue Ridge
range admits, however, af caves
and what are commonly called 'rink-
holes,n and II II were not for
the CONFEDERATION of Prof Cooke, who
enjoys "A distinguished reputation in
his department Of science, the report
would not be 40 readily believed as II
Is. The New England society, cOln-
prlsing many OF the foremost oitizens
OF Orange, are arranging 10 obtain pos.
session Of the property on which this
wonder Is situated.

Gen. Buffers declaration that he will stand by
the greenback and antLmonop0ly nomination Is
looked upon by politicians about town as ha wing
lost its Importance from long delay, and neither
party seems to derive any particular satisfaction
from the prospect OF hts drawing on part of the

make the most OF it, however The republicans
contend that he can not poll very large Ir sh vote
and whatever support he gets he must draw from
the ne ular democratic rank and file The demo-
Gratis say, however, that he Will draw OF the dyna-
mite Irish who would have gone TO Blaine had he
not run and 1t Is h1ntej that the whole thing is
