A MIRACULOUS Escape.

During one of the great eruptlons
of Etna a tremendous stream Of lava
burst forth from the side OF the
mountain, and descended towards the
town of Catania, threatening it with
destruction.
The tcrror-stricken inhabitants
brought their patrons, st. Agatha, to
avert the impending catastrophe, but
their prayers for while seemed all
in vain. Closer and closer crept the
dreaded lava stream. before whose
powerful thrust even the town wall
m ust give way, when 10! amiracle.
A few inches from the wall the
stream was arrested in its progress
and began to pile itself up in heap
Higher and higher it grew, fed by
fresh lava from behind, until before
it had quite cooled and hardened 1T
had actually overstepDed the wall.
st. Agatha, as might be expected,
obtained the credit of this miracle,
as it was thought Ito be; but science
very soon after robbed her of it.
Lava, it has been discovered, is full
Of gas, which gushes out in little jets
and so strong are these jets that the
lava actually blew itself back from
the wall. and as the wall was luckily
strong enough not to be blown down.
the lava kept on blowing itself back
till it had time to cool.

Never Such a Storm Before as That of
Thursday Night.

CHICAGO, March S.-The storm which
ragged throughout the Middle West on
Thursday night stands unparalleled,
not only. for the great extent of terri
tory over which it ranged, but for the
amount of water precipitated. At
Cincinnati, the rainfall reported by the
weather bureau of this city amounted
to 5. 3s inches, and floods are reported
from every Geographic station, from
Pittsburg on the east to Kansas City
on the west, and from the lakes to the
northern boundary of Tennessee. At
Cairo, ILL.,, several buildings were un-
rooted, and one dwelling was blown
down, causing the death of an infant
inmate.
Throughout southern Illinois, Indi-
ana and Ohio the damage to railroad
property, in the form IF washouts,
making traffic impossible, and in the
wrecks caused by the softening of the
roadbeds, is immense.
not inconsiderable loss to the peo-
Pile, as whole, will be the washing
away of bridges and roadways, which
have been built up in the rural dis
tricts at cost of millions Of dollars,
and which in many cases have been
totally DESTROYED.

Considerable attention has been at.
uracted to the reported discoveries OF
coal in the Huasteca Vera Cruz OF
tropical district lying on the eastern
or gulf side of the mountains which
line the coast of the Gulf of Mexico.
The existence of coal in these locali'
ties has been known for long time,
and it appears that the matter has
been taken'up by syndicate OF Eng
lish capitalists who have sent experts
into the region. 1t is asserted that
the latter have pronounced the thick
ness and extent of the deposits TO be
very great and the coal to be OF the
best quality. Tests Of the fuel are
said to have given an average result
of SO per cent. OF fixed carbon.--

hat they are Portuguese.
The legend Of their history. which
they carefully preserve, is this: A
great many years ago these mountains
we're settled by u society OF Portu-
guese adventures, men and women,
who came from the shore Of Virginia
that they might be freed from the re-
;traints and drawbacks imposed upon
them by any form Of government.
They made themselves friendly with
the Indians, and, freed as they were,
from every kind of social government,
they uprooted all conventional forms
Of society and lived in kind Of
Utopia OF their own creation, tramp
ling upon the marriage relation, ,de-
spising all forms Of religion and sub

product of the soil-and the game of
the great forests. They intermiXed
with the Indians and subsequently
with the negroes, and thus formed
the present race of Melungeons. They
are tall, straight, well-tormed people
of dark copper color, bat with CIR
cassian features. They were priv
LEGGED voters in the old slave days
and accredited citizens. They are
brave but quarreisome, and are hos.
pitable to strangers. They have no
preachers among them and are almost
without any knowledge of Supreme
Being. They marry by established
FORMS but husband and wife can sep
arate at pleasure without meeting
with any reproach or disgrace from
their friends. They have but little
association with their neighbors, and
are in every respect, save that they
arc under the jurisdiction Of thc State
government, ii separate and distlncf
people. N. Y. Recorder
