To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
Few persons who have not given the
subject particular attention have any idea
of the enormous extent TO which the
manufacture and sale OF patent medicines
has reached in thiscountry. The litera-
ture." so to speak, of the subject, con-
sisting of innumerable pamphlets, with
certificates of miraculous cures, end
flaming advertisements in every journal
in the land, is an unerring indication OF
the hold which these drugs have upon
public estimation and of the extent to
which they are used
1t cannot be denied that many OF them
are carefully and skilfully compounded
and well adapted TO the relief OF the
disorders they claim to cure. 1t may be
asserted with equal confidence that great
injury to health and many deaths have
resulted from their indiscriminate use.
Their popularity is standing evidence
of the credulity and gullibility OF the
public and these mental conditions, so
favorable to the designs of quacks and
impostors, are in their turn the results
OF ignorance.
So Icing as people are uniformed in
regard to the plainest truths OF physiolo-
gy and hygiene will they believe absurd
and impossible things in regard to the
action of remedies for disease.
The truth is that the American public
have not taken time-it may perhaps be
better to say that they have not had
time-to attend to these matters. With
a continent to redeem from the wilder
ness and the savage to span it with rail-
roads and to bring Its uttermost parts
into close relationship by network OF
telegraph lines with building marts OF
commerce and manufactures, 10 bring
together and convert the raw material OF
the country into the varied uses OF civil
ization, they have had but little time to
devote to anything else than the work IN
hand.
The natural consequence is that vast
amount of disease has been caused by
overwork and by inattention to and igno-
rance OF those details in our daily mode
OF life which are essential to good
health. and to remedy this an extensive
array of nostrums-some good, some
bad, some wheat among the chaff- IS
brought to supplement the work OF the
physician.
Ii is time now, and the public are be-
ginning to appreciate the fact-to take
measures. both public and private-to
promote health and lessen disease by APP
propriate remedies; to protect against
those epidemics which have been the
scourge OF former periods by improving
the sanitary condition of towns and
cities, and to seek, in better food and
better clothing, in recreation, travel,
and improved methods Of living the pre-
vention, instead OF the cure, OF the Ills
the flesh is heir to. Nj. ID.

THE DEVIL.

While making another circuit Of the
apartment we were startled by an excla-
nation from Tupps. "The Devil, he
cried, and blaze of fire leaped from
the muzzle of his gun. A shower OF
hail fell around us. and a most astound-
ing report followed the discharge. The
sound was most terrific as it rolled and
reverberated through the caverns, and
WAS echoed and re.ecboed down the
aisles and passages until it died away like
a receding storm cloud. We looked up,
and for some time were rooted to the spot
in CONSERVATION. Immediately over us
stood a gigantic form. His eyes cleaned
in the freight, two horns arose at the
temples, his arms were outstretched, his
body writhed, and from it dropped the
differing hail-stones. Brakeman was
the first TO recover, and going boldly up
&c the monster struck him blow with
his Ratchet, which caused another down
nour of hail. But that blow dispelled
The illusion. The Devil was stone
image at least twelve feet high, mounted
ON n pedestal about three feet high. AS
the flames on the altar mounted higher
we were enabled to make closer exami-
nation. The rude figure was evidently
designed to inspire the beholder with
terror. The eyes were two glittering
stones. the horns appeared to be the
tusks Of some large animal, the nose
was aquiline, the features most re-
pulsiye, and from the open mouth
protruded sharp, white teeth and
tusks of bone. Around the arrns and
neck OF the giant strings of beads and
shells were fastened with copper wire.
and thus covered the body like a gar
ment. Az many OF these beads and
shells had been cut away by the charge
Of bird shot in Tupp's gun, the mystery
OF the hail-storm was explained. We
we're much grsti6ed 70 find our devil %

THE RIVER srYx.

Here we noticed that We were follow
ing the stream from the falls. Going
three or four hundred yards forward,
and many feet downward, we were again
arrested by body of water, which ex-
tended entirely across the catern and
into the blackness beyond. We tried
the depth of this gulf with our poles,
but it was apparently bottomless. A
large rock was tied on the end of the
rope and lowered, but it rolled down the
sloping sides and found no resting place
for more than sixty feet. "Drot
the luck; L wish l had my
boat" said Tupps, showing the dis
appointment no felt The water was
warm, and he'd a brackish, sulphurous
taste. After standing for some time I'M
decided how to proceed, Braddenham re-
marked. "Well, boys, l reckon we'll
have to swim it. This proposition was
not relisbed by at least one of the party,
for ne could not swim stroke. Brad
denham at once undIessed, and breaking
off a piece of the pole, tied it to his
back, the end rising about two feet above
his head. 10 the end OF this pole be at
tached lantern, and then without a
moment OF hesitation let himself down
into the water. He was good
swimmer, and in few minutes
only the light from .he lantern could
be seen dancing across the darkness.
After going about fifty yards il was seen
that he had stopped, aud now ne wss re-
turning, but ia zigzag course. AS soon
as no reached the shore he said "It's
ali right i reckon you can walk across. >
This appeared absurd, but ne explained
that in swimming ledge OF rock had
been struck, and this he found extended
back TO where we were standing. Brad
denhsm then started again, this time
walking on the rock below the water,
carefully feeling with his pole. After

After reading this letter our desire to
explore every portion of the cavern was
greatly increased, but this was impracti-
cable at the time, as we found more than
dozen passages leading in different di-
rections. A large quantity of fuel was
piled upon the altar, and the ruddy glow
beat back the dark shadows toward the

Again, after briefly relating the incl
dent of his rescue by Pocahontas, Cap
tain Smith. in his General History, says !:

1.-Two days after, Powhatan having disguised
hlmselfin the most fearefuest manner he could,
caused Captain smith 10 be brought forth 10
great house in the woods, and there upon mat
by the fire TO be left alone Not long after, from
behind mat that divided tho house was made
the most dolefullest nOyse he ever heard; then
PoWhetan, more like n Divill than man, with
some two hundred more M black as himselte.
came unto him and told him, now they were
friends, and presently he should goe 10 lanes
towne TO send him two create gunnes and
cryndstone for which he would give him the
Country Of Cepahowsick. and forever esteeme
him a. his son Nsntaquoud.'

Tupps, who was in front, could scarce
ly squeeze his bulky form through the
narrow opening. For more than fifty
yards we were compelled TO crawl along
the low tunnel, but the floor was very
smooth and dry and the walls we're regu-
lar. Having proceeded some distance We
were halted by an exclamation from
Tupps. who was peering into the dark
ness below. The cavern bad now
widened SO that we all came up and stood
abreast. "Here's the botiomless pit J"
said Tupps, with a laugh, aud the sound
echoed from the depths like the voice Of
q lost spirit What's that 2" said
Lane, and echo repeated the question.
Braddsaham lowered his pole, but The
