How Funnel of Sea Foam Danced
Along the Surface of Jersey Inlet.
While your correspondent and friend
were sailing IN Great Bay, on the after
noon of July 16, says the Ne,o .Jersey
Coast Pilot, they saw huge waterspout
the first ever known in that BODY OF
water. Our attention was at first at
tracted by violent cOmmotion of the
water, covering space of probably
twenty yards in diameter. By the aid of
pair of marine glasses we watched it
attentively during it's formation, and as
1t pursued its rapid flight toward the west
we were enabled to make the following
observations: The body of water ap-
peared to be leaping and fOamino with
great violence and was travelling at the
rate of or 10 miles an hour. AS it moved
swiftly on its course it gradually ascended
toward dense, black cloud that over
hung it. Presently we observed the cloud
to change in appearance, portion of it
becoming elongated and descending TO-
wards the waters that rose to meet If.
and, as it drew the water up into it,
changed from an inky blackness to a
much lighter color.
The thing was now complete, and con-
sisted OF mass of seething, foaming
water, whose diameter had increased to
forty yards or more, to which was ioined
a narrow funnel, which extended at least
a quarter of a mile upward, where it
united with the heavy, black cloud that
still lowered over it. The funnel. if such
we may call it, at first ran down in almost
a perpendicular direction, but soon
changed into a double curve. and. as IL
swayed to and fro in the air. ii presented
the appearance OF, a huge rope, connecting
the mass of water with the inky cloud
above.
The whole affair lasted, as near as we
could judge, for about fifteen minutes.
when the upper portion gradually became
less dense until it finally disappeared
while the waters continued in agitation a
few minutes longer. From the time we
discovered 1t until its dissolution it kept
up the same rate of speed, and had anv
boats been in its path it would assuredIy
have meant destruction To fham

LONDON, Aug. 5.-Premier Gladstone,
in moving a credit of 800, 900 to provide for
an expedition to the Soudan, said that the
purpose of the expedition was merely to
relieve Gen. Gordon, and not to crush El
Mahdi. 1t would be sufficient to secure
good government in the SOudan. The eVae-
uation of that country was now out Ofthe
question. England was bound to protect
Gen. Gordon. Premier Gladstone said
that he was asking the members to vote
rather on the principle involved than the
exact figure which he anticipated the eX-
pedition would cost. His intention was
to obtain authority to redeem the pledges
which had been made. 1t was undesira-
BILE to enter into details at present.
Mr.. Labouchere Radical objected. The
vote now asked for, he believed, was mere
sop. Next year the House would be asked
to vote 93,000,000 to carry on the work
The credit was agreed to by vote of 174 to
IA. The minority was composed of the Par
nellites and few Radicals. No Conser-
vatives were among them.

BROOKLYN. n. Y, Aug. 5.-The Inde-
pendent Republicans held a mass meeting
tonight in the Grand Opera House in this
city. Every seat was filed, and MANY
who desired to do so were unable to effect
an entrance to the building. A large por-
ton Of the audience was Democratic, and
there were not a few Blaine Republicans
present who succeeded in making them
selves particularly prominent before the
meeting was over. H. w. Maxwell called
the meeting to order, and introduced
Horace Z. Deming as Chairman.
Mr.. Deming said that such an immense
assemblage was an indication Ofthe wide

lIeYed that the Republican candidate was

frequently interrupted by similar demon
stratlOns whenever the names of the can
didates were mentioned, and before he
finished the uprOar was so great that he
could not be heard.
Carl SchurZ was then introduced. He
said that he wished to address himself to
the Republicans, and appeal to their
reason as men who loved their country,
The tariff was not the question which
they had to meet, and the charge that
they were free traders was false.
HONEST GOVERNMENT THE ISSUE.
The question was whether or not honest
government could be attained. Would not
the Endorsement of such man as Blaine
be dangerous to good government? 1t
had been asserted that Blaine was
an abused man, and that his enemies
were prosecuting him. If this were so it
was not right. Nothing, the speaker said.

character of any man, but he should not

of the Mulligan letters, and
remarked: "Blaine's friends disliked
very much to be brought face to face with
those letters" A vOice-''NO o they DON'T"

into the history of the Mulligan letters
