The Apalachicola correspondent of the
Philadelphia Times sends his paper the fol-
lowing: "While boring well on his vine
yard and orangerv situated on the outskirts
Of Ecoatina, Fla, Henry Harlc ast!e recently
struck what must be an immense under
ground river, aud wh ch poured its water
forth at such tremend US rate that the
men who were doing the boring narrowly
escaped being overtaken by the food,
which, gushing down the side of the slide
incline on which the fruit farm Is situated,
had soon worn channel to the dry bed of
an ancient creek. This is soon filled w Lth
rushing, furious tide. which finally emptied
itself into the Apalachicoln, and which has
continued to flow unchecked or with
out signs Of diminishing. The water
is clear, sparkling, end very
cold, with only a slight mineral flavor.
Fish by the thousands have been thrown
out and are of several varieties, some of
which are of kind unknown to ichthyolo-
gists, being perfectly colorless, while Others
are translucent and gelatinous, and ali are
without eyes, and very small; except few
of the sort resembling our pickerel, and
which measure from a foot to three aud a
half in length, and are provided with very
large pointed teeth. Great damage has
been dore to his fruit and vines, and Mr.
Hardcastle, seeing no prospect Of the flood
abating, has offered reward to stimulate
the Ingenuity of the local engineers to find
a way of controlling and utilizing the
water Peoples from miles around have
been coming in crowds to inspect the Won
der, and one or two venturesome spirits
have narrowly escaped drowning"
Jacksonville Times Uaion: At the resi-
dence of Mrs. L. j. Maxey, the winter
Home" in this city, there is stopping a
Virginia lady, Mrs. Hooper, who is a grand
nisce of President Madison. She was her
self Q Madison before marriage, aud has il
| her possession collection of highly inter
| esting relics aud heirlooms. BY far the
uiOst qudluG VI tuSS6, anu possessing Uue
| deepest interest from a historical point of
view, is huge breast-pin Of antique shape
and design. 1t is oval in shape about the
size of a hens egg, the back OF solid gold,
the front of which is concave and
overspread with a substance much
resembling ivory. Upon this is a
decoration doubtless unlike any
thing in existence in this country to-day.
1t much resembles painting in oil, but is in
reality done in bits of human hair, COM
bned with different coloring materials
| How it was applied to the surface Of the
gold is q mystery. 1t is a lost arc. Presi-
dent Madison had tho pin decorated by a
| French artist who alone possessed this
secret, and who died soon afterward, TAX
| ing his secret with him into eternity. The
design is that of a tombstone, near which
sits a beautiful woman-Madison's mother
and Mrs. Hooper says that the likeness
is perfect On the tombstone are the
words, Deep is the sorrow, genuine is the
tear" commemorative of the death of the
father of President Madison and the
husband of the beautiful woman. Above
her head is a cherub, commemorative of a
brother of the President, who died in in-
fancy. All the hair used in this art work
was from the head of Madison's mother
who was noted in her day for the wealth of
her tresses. The design throughout is very
delicate, and is protected by convex glass.
President Madison died childess, and this
came down to Mrs Hooper through the fam.
lily of the Presidents brother. Only a weel
ago a baby bov was born to Mrs. Hooper,
great granddaughter of Madison. 1t has beer
suggested that he be named Lee Madison
Hooper, a name combining both sides of his
ancestry.
