a singular phenomenon occurs or
The borders Of the Red sea at a place
called Nakous. where Intermittent un-
derground sounds have been heard for
an unknown number Of centuries. II
In situated at about half a mile distant
from the shore. whence a long reach OF
sand ascends rapidly to a height Of 300
feet This reach is about eighty feet
wide and resembles an amphitheater.
being walled by low rocks. The
sounds coming up from the ground at
this place recur at intervals OF about
nm hour. They at first resemble low
murmur. but ere long there is heard a
loud knocking somewhat like the
strokes Of a bell and which at the end
OF about five minutes becomes so
strong as to agitate the sand. The ex.
PLANTATION of this curious phenomenon
given by the Arabs is that there is a
convent under the ground here and
that these sounds are those of the bell
which the monks ring for prayers. So
they call it Nakous, which means a
bell. The Arabs affirm that the noise
80 frightens their camels when they
hear 1t as to render them furious.
Philosophers attribute the sound to
suppressed volcanic action. probably to
the bubbling Of gas or vapors under
ground.

During the coming session of par
hament the chief interest will be GEN.
tered on the introduction of the gov.
eminent measure for the abolition of
plural voting for members of the
landsthinget, the upper house of the
Danish legislature. The conservatives
will lose heavily by the abolition Of
plural voting and the present govern
ment will not gain anything, while
the radicals will have their voting
strength greatly augmented. BY the
original constitution of 1S49 plural
voting was prohibited. but In 1866 a
measure was carried permitting heav-
lily taxed voters more than one vote
for members Of the upper house. AS
. counter demand the conservatives
IN the lower house will seek a meas
ure for proportional representation,
demand which meets with opposition
from a section of the democratic par
dies. Unless all the parties modify
their demands. and the prospects for
this act at the present time seems re-
mote. II is hardly likely that they
win reach an amicable agreement. At
any rate the coming session promises
- be exceedingly stormy.
