THE GREAT KENTUCKY SCIENTIST AND CAVE EXPERT GIVES HIS IMPRES SIONS OF OUR SUBTERRA NEAN RIVER. The discovery of the great subter ranean river under Birmingham has been the great topic of conversation the past week. Great excitement has prevailed, and so great was the in. terest taken in it that Dr. Jos. R. Smith; W. S. Brown. Wm. Hood. T. J. Brown, Wm. Beruey. Geo. C. Kel ly, J. B. Farle and other leading cit izens held a meeting at which it was decided to telegraph Prof. Joseph Mulhattan, the great -Kentucky sci entist and cave expert, the facts in the case and urge him to come at once to give it a thorough explora tion. The result was that Prof. Mul hattan arrived from Iuisvillo on Friday evening, and a party com posed of the above named gentlemen spent all day yesterday exploring the great subterranean wonder. A strong boat was quickly improvised iu the cave from lumber which was lowered through the narrow inlet arid the par ty proceeded down the riyer for at least fifteen miles before there" was any obstruction to prevent them from going forward, and that was only a narrow formation of recent origin that can be easily cleared away. The natural tunnel through which the river flows is of almost uniform width, and say about 300 feet for the distance of fifteen miles navigated, and the height is at least 150 feet, so that a steamship of the largest class could uavigate it with ease; the depth of the stream varies from 45 to 70 feet. It is connected with tide water, and this will give Birming ham a wonderful and cheap direct outlet to the sea, for the products of its furnaces, its mines and industries generally. The above is Mr. Mulhattan's first impression of the wonder, which is fully corroberated by all of hie party of daring explorers. But this is not all. Prof. Mulhattan has this to say of it: "The great subterranean river recently discovered under the city of Birmingham is undoubtedly the most remarkable discovery ever made on the American continent. The river is greater in volume than the mights Mississippi. Its vast subterranean bed is undoubtedly due to the grind ing and cutting of immense icebergs during the glacial period, then at a subsequent preadamite period, vio lent upheavals of the earth toppled over the mountains which forms the present grand archway through which the icebergs continued to cut, leaving it as it is now a natural ship canal to the Gulf of Mexico, A pre historic race undoubtedly. utilizei it for the transportation of metals from this section to the sea where they were transported to various parts of the world. Furnaces on a scale scarcely so magnificent yet as satis factory in results to thdse prehistoric people undoubtedly existed on the present site of Birmingham, as ruins of these, and of ancient sun temples are found in various parts of this county." "Added to this," says Professor Mulnattan, "we discovered in niches of the cave numerous articles of bronze, also statuary, numerous ma sonic emblems, and mummies with sandals on their feet all in a perfect state of preservation. We also dis covered the remains of many marine monsters of the Diasor old red sand stone period, prominent among them j the huge Ichthyosaurus, which was undoubtedly used by these prehistor ic races to drag their ships from what is now Birmingham to the Gulf of Mexico. These extinct sea monsters were docile and harmless, and were harnessed to the ships laden with pig irory which they pulled to the sea with the greatest ease. They were more powerful than the most power ful locomotive of the present day. Hulls of these ancient ships are scat tered all along the banks of this great subterranean stream." Furthor explorations will be made to day by Prof. Mulhattan and his scientific part3r, and their next re port will be eagerly looked for by the readers of the Age as the wildest excitement now prevails over these latest developments Thousands of people have been crowding around the entrance to tho river clamoring foradmisssion. Prof. Mulhattan saw numerous eyeless fish and eyeless sea n? ousters of the shark species; al so eyeless amphibious animals of the alligator and reptile tribe. He says a company should be formed at once to clear the river of any obstructions, and that boats and barges to navigate it should be constructed at once. As the entrance to it is one of the streets of the city, -it will therefore belong to the city and cannot be claimed by any private individuals. This discovery is of paramount im portance to Birmingham, to Alabama and to the entire scientific world, and is worthy of the greatest enthu -8iasm. ' . Instead of reading the riot act, to the striking miners at Coal Centre, Pa., Sheriff Chambers should have read Blaine's letter of acceptance, that they might better know how well off they are. Wash. Post., Terrible Bat True. HOW BLAtXE IS ARRAIGNED I5Y EX REFRESENTAT1VK POUND OF WIS CONSIN. Himself a speculater, enjoying a fortune too great to have been ac quired by honest industry, legitimate business enterprise, or his country's service at 5,000 a year, he sympathizes with and profits by speculative stock-jobbing and gam bling methods which have wrought ruin, disgrace, and business disaster beyond computation.rschooled youth and persuaded middle age to avoid honest and useful industry, made su iside and insanity commonplace, un settled values, placed the fruits of honest toil in the power of the Goulds and Armours to bear down or bull up in the markets as whim or inter est may dictate; methods which re centlyT gave us but an exaggerated illustration of their iniquitous conse quences in the Grant & Ward fifteen- miil on dollar failure and robbery. Reference to Blaine's Congression al record relating to subsidies, class legislation, corporate exactions, &c. will readily satisfy the honest inqui rer of his uniform support of monop olies and indifference to the common weal. Littlo wonder that he omits in his letter to refer to or explain the cause of the great disparity in the distribution of this marvellous in sreaseof wealth accumulated during the period he chooses for comparison ; that he fails to note the fact that the one three hundreth part of the $44, 000,000,000 is held by one man, while others rank little below, and his own palatial residence commanding a rental of $11,000 a year, suggesting more thau an average per capita of wealth. Little wonder that he is si lent on the subject of inter State com merce, the regulation of which is de manded by all producers and legiti mate traders. Great corporate inter ests command non interferance. It was a lame defense of his devotion to improved civil service to cite the fact that during a prolonged public ser vice he only advised the removal of 'four persons.' The expert observer will conclude that the true better ment of the service demanded the removal of forty. He should have emphasized his position by noting the fidelity with which a horde of relatives have constantly fed at the public crib, notably the favorite broth er Bob, drawing pay for another's service. Nor will the citation of his pacific assurances to Mexico, quite cover up his South American policy and interferance to protect the Lan drau guana scheme. The death of his servant Hulburt, whom he feign ed to rebuke, may serve to partially conceal the true inwardness of this affair, as did his garbled rendering of the Mulligan letters first lead many charitable people touching the Little Ruck bond job. The disingenuousness of his letter of acceptance is further betrayed by its significant silence touching the events of the past three years. Bring ing down his historic figures to the present would have revealed the fic tion iuvolved in his statements; would have shown a marvelous shrinkage in nominal values; would have noted the downfall of bus iness prosperity and business morals, and would have pictured as few can do so graphically as he the furnace fires dying out, the wheels of facto tories standing still, wages reduced, beggarry usurping the place of labor bank and business failures, creditors and depositors wantonly defrauded, homes lost, and crookedness in pub lic affairs. Mr. Blaine is objectiona ble futhermore for the company he keeps and for the f rieuds he has made. Will the chief promoters of his nom ination be his chief advisers, if elect ed? There's the rub. I need mention no names, but will suggest that the least objectionable of his pet support ers are tho Tribune's supporters, of Greely in 1872 and accusers of Blaine in 1876 and 1S80, charging him with bribery and other penitentiary crimes. ' Political Points. Blaine's magnetism has no appre ciable effect on the Edmunds ice berg. Bait. Day, Dem. After the 4th of November Gener al Butler will know how a tanned hu man hide feels himself. Utica Ob server. Mr. Blaine is said to be recovering. It would be a serious blow to the Democrats if ill-health should com pel him to withdraw. Chicago Times. "Blaine's growing strength" is the caption of an article floating through the Republican press. It is "grow ing" small by degrees and beauti -fully less. Wash. Post. People who are disposed to speak slightingly of the brevity of ex-Gov. Hendrick's letter of acceptance should refer to Mr. Lincoln's of 1860. Mr. Hendricks wrote one hundred and seventy -three words; Mr. . Lincoln one hundred and forty-one. . They are models of their kind. Wash. Poet, Dem. A TOUCHING INCIDENT. A YOUNG GIRLS DEMENTIA HOW IT WAS OCCASIONED SOME NEW AND STARTLING TRUTHS. The St Louis express on the New York Central road, was crowded one evening recently, when at one of tlie way stations, an elderly gentleman, accompanied by a young lady, en tered the cars and finally secured a seat. As the conductor approached the pair, the young lady arose, and in a pleading voice, said : "Please, sir, don't let him carry me to the asylum. I am not crazy ; I am a little tired, but not mad. Oh! no indeed. Won't you please have papa take me back home?'' The conductor, accustomed though he was to all phases of humanity, looked with astonishment at the pair as did the other passengers in their vicinity. A few words from the father, however, sufficed, and the conductor passed on while the young lady turned her face to tho window. The writer chanced to be seated just behind the old gentleman and could not forego the desire to speak to him. With a sad face and a tremb ling voice the father said: "My daughter has been attending the seminary in a distant town and was succeeding remarkably. Her natural qualities, together with a great ambition, placed her in tho front ranks of the' school, but she studied too closely, was not careful of her health, and her poor brain has been turned. I am taking her to a privato asylum where we hope she will soon be better." At the next station the oid man and his daughter left the cars, but th3 incident, so suggestive of Shake speare's Ophelia, awakened strange thoughts in the mind of the writer. It is an absolute fact that while the population of America increased 30 per cent, during the decade between 1G70 and 1880 the insanity increase was over one hundred and thirty five per cent for the same period. Travelers by rail, 'by boat, or in car riages in any part of the land see large and elaborate buildings, and in quire what they are? Insane asylums ! Who builds them? Each State; even counties; hun dreds of private individuals, and iu all cases their capacity is taxed to ths utmost. Why? Because men, in business and the professions, women, at home or in society, and children at school over tax their mental and nervous forces by work, worry and care. This brings about nervous disorders, indi" gestion and eventually mania. It is not always trouble with the head that causes insanity. It far of tener arises from evils in other parts of tho body. The nervous system de termines the status of the brain. Any one who ha9 periodic headaches; occasional dizziness; a dimness of vision; a ringing in the ears; a fever ish head ; frequent nausea Or a sink ing at the pit of the stomach, should take warning at once. The stomach and head are in direct sympathy and if one be impaired the other can never be in order. "Acute dyspepsia causes more insane suicides than any other known agency and tho man, woman or child who.'io stomach is deranged is not and cannot be safe from the coming on at any moment of mania in some one of its many ter. rible forms. The value of moderation and the imperative necessity of care in keep, ing the stomach right must there fore be clear to all. The least ap pearance of indigestion, or mal-as-similation of food should be watched as carefully as the first approach of an invading army. Many means have been advocated for meeting such attacks, but all have heretofore been more or less defective. There can be little doubt, however, that for the purrose of regulating the stomach, toning it up to proper ac tion, keeping its nerves in a normal condition and purifying the blood, Warner's Tippecanoe The Best, ex cels all ancient or recent discoveries. It is absolutely pure and vegetable; it is certain to add vigor to adults, while it cannot by any possibility in jure even a child. The fact that it was used in the days of the famous Harrison family is proof positive of its merit as it ha3 so thoroughly withstood the test of time. As a tonic and revivifier it is simply won derful. It has relieved the agony of the stomach in thousands of cases; soothed the tired nerves; produced peaceful sleep and averted the com ing on of a mania more to be dreaded t jan death itself, Hon. M. W. Offutt, State Senator, Tow8on, Maryland, writes: "I had occasion to apply treatment to a se verely sprained knee from which, and from inflammatory rheumatism, I had been suffering for six weeks. Some one suggested St. Jacobs Oil, which I tried, and it not only gave immediate relief' to the sprain, but it cured me of every symtom of the rheumatism." A bald headed man hasn't much to be proud of, but he always wants to put oa hairs , Cleveland up North. Gov. MeLane. of Maryland, is just back to Annapolis from a month's sojourn in the North. From the Bal timore Sun the following from the Governor's conversation is repro duced, ami it is full of ood cheer. He said : , "I found all our friends in the North confident that Cleveland will carry tho pivotal States of Connect i cult, New York and New Jersey. The attempt of the Republicans to take the Irish vote for Biaine had failed. His record iu the State De partment in reference to tho Irish Americans arrested in Ireland under the coercion act is a bad one. The contrast between his cae and that of Gov. Marcy in the Kosz:a case is very marked. "In Connecticut!, New York and New Jersey the workingmen were very generously refusing to partici pate in he Butler canvass, and will for the most part adhere to the Dem ocratic party'. I think that is the delicate point of this canvass, and if tho Democratic workingmen remain firm and loyal to tho Democratic par ty success is certain. "I heard everywhere that the inde pendent Republicans maintained their position and organization, and were determined to support Cleve land. "Gov. Hendricks has no doubt at all about Indiana, and I have had very good accounts from Califorria. I believe both of those States will vote for Cleveland. What is still more notable in the canvass is the very sanguine hope that the North western Democrats have of carrying Wisconsin." The New York Herald and the New York World both rejoice at the result of the election in Vermont and see in it signs of the victory to bo achieved by the democrats in No vember. The Herald says: The shrinkage of the Republican vote in Vermont yesterday, as com pared with. the September election of 18S0, appears to be in a proportion which will assure the election of Gov ernor Cleveland to the Presidency by a great majority in the electoral col lege, if it is repeated throughout the Northern States. There is reason for confidence that it will not merely he repeated but greatly exceeded. It is manifest that several thous and Vermont Republicans have with held their votes eve" fpom a respect able State ticket in SepLemberto sig nify their reprobation of their party's Presidential nomination. IVhen No vember comes and the Presidential ticket of Blaine and Logan is directly in issue at the polls it is safo to look for a still more vigorous expression of public opposition to it. And this is from the World: There is nothing discouraging to Democracy in the result of the elec tion in Vermont yesterday., Ver mont is the rock-ribbed, granite-based fortress of Republicanism. It is the Gibraltar of the party. Its pop ulation is fixed, its predjudices are ingrained and there is little or no political change in Vermont. But the election shows that even in Ver mont there is a desire for change and Administrative Reform this year. Four years ago, at the Gubernato rial election, the Republicans "had a plurality of 2o,C03. Judging from the returns received from yesterday s election the plurality this year will not exceed 21,000. The stay at home Republican vote seems to have been unusually large. In a. number of tovvn.s:i.' 1 :. jcrats and Indepen dents sccumu local victories. The Republicans in several districts were routed for the first time in the histo ry of their party and the j Democrats gain largely in the Legislature. The coolness of Senator Edmunds toward Blaine seems to have ?pread over the mountains and descended into the valleys. It is gratifying to know that in Stalwart Vermont there is a desire for a change and a purification of the Government which the "magnetism' of Blaine caanot deflect. To stir up any sort of Republican revolt in Ver mont is a victory for the friends of Reform. The sentiment that has reduced the plurality in Vermont from 26.000 to 21,000 will in like ratio give Cleveland every close State in the Union. And who shall say that like influences are not at work, in every State? Turn the Rascals out! For the prompt and certain cure of erysipelas, use Ayer's Sarsaparilla, which is the specific endorsed by the most eminent medical authorities. A man's word in 1 these degenerate days may be as good as his bond But the question is, what is his bond worth?
