Henry Giiendle, living on Limestone Ridge, iu Wyandot county, Ohio, was ploughing when one of his horses broke through the earth in a deep hole It was rescued from its position w uh great lifliciilty. 1'pini examining ihe spot, liendle found a large hole leading per iiiidicularly ilnun into the lailh.

F.xag- ueraled reiiorls of this discovi ry reached Hey. and an cxploiing parly was made Hid drove over to the ridge lo a.-eir- aiti whal was at the bottom of the story 1 the hole. The party consisted of half a dozen well known gentlemen, including a re- porta', who were provided with ropes, lights, fireworks, etc., lo make a thorough xploialioD. Having lixed everything in readiuiss for the dcscenl, the ipiestion nose as lo who should first go down. The men looked into the dark, mysteri ous hole, menially made a calculation as to the probability of finding a nest of rattlesnakes at the bottom, and each one was perfectly satisfied to let several of the others go first. Dr. G. started the uncertain descent alone. Ashe was lowered down. down. down, the light of his lantern could be seen growing fainter and smaller until only a liny speck was visible. After letting out theropo about a bundled feet, a faint, muHled whisper anuouneed that he had found solid bet- torn. The reporter wcut down next, and finally the whole party found itse'f at the bottom of the shaft. The hole descends through liiueitone rock all Ihe way down, uud varies iu di ameter from three to thirty feel. Tl c bottom is dry rock, and the jdaee pruved to be a capacious cavern. 'The place where the landing was made was esti mated to be sixty feet in width, and, while the cciang at that point was low, it gradually rose like a dome to ihe height of fully fifty feet. The Hour was very uneven. The parly had not gone a piarter of a mile when they were sud deuly confronted by a yaw ning chasm, ten feet in width and of an unknown depth. Ileyond this impassable el- ft they could see the roof glitteiing in Ihe light of their lanterns, Several Roman candles were fired into the soaee, but the side walls could not be seen, so that there is no telling how far ihe cave ex tends in that direction. The fireworks revealed numerous stalactites and stal agmites of beautiful formation, whose marble-like whiteness glistetied and shone resplendent iu the vari-colored light . The roof sparkled with a frost-like in crust nl inn, which reflected the light from a myiiid of shining points as though the whole dome was set iu diamonds. Retracing their steps for some distance, the parly found lo the right a sinal1 opening at the tup of a steep ascent, and entering it Were obliged lo crawl on hands and knees fur a distance ofpeihaj s ten yards. Then the ravel n suddenly opi ned into another niammoth chamber, apparently much larger than the first one, and possessing more of the curious stalactite formations. At a great elis tanee from the entrance they came! upi n a lake of pure cold water, as clear as crystal and of unfathomable depth, lloldiug the lights to the water, a shin ing penny was dropped iu, uud its grad ual descent watched until it had fallen apparently fifty feet, when all trace of it was lost. The water uf the lake was perfectly still and dead, there being no current, and no signs uf fish or animal life were visible. A few shells were picked up on the shore uf the lake, and, bciug again fc.jdr from fun her advance, the parly retraced ilio'ir Qy in other directions, as tiiuclj, '.

When a man marries a woman simply because he admires her pre;lty face, flow-i-ig tresses, or general physical propor tions, he is almost certain to be disap pointed. Most men, however, try to make the best of ihe bargain, evuiif they discover that the woman of I tie r choice, through the ngnicies for inipuv. ing on nature which have been common in all ages, do mislead them iu the days of eourlship, and fail to keep up I lie p r haps pardonable deception in aft -r years. Not so a wealthy Michigan farunr by the name of Pheyl.in. who is a parly to a divorce suit iu Detroit under extr.ioiilina ry lircuui-'an.'cs.

Dining lain the plant seems to succumb and bends its heal during a thunder shower; it remains there without force or virtue even if one should shelter it with an umbrella. No .-buck is fell at that time in breaking ihe leaves and the rm illu is unafleetid hy it. One novel by any chance sees a bird or insect alight oil llic electric plant; an instinct seems to warn them that tiny would find there sudden death. It is also imporiant to remark that where it grows none of the magnetic metals are found; neither iron, m i cobalt, noriiicke l, an undeniable proof that tbeeleelrie force belongs exclusively to the plant. Light and heal, phosphorescence magnetism, electricity, how many mysteries and botanical problems does this wondrous Indian plant conceal within ils leaf and flower? WHO SAID IT. D.an Smith is credited with Bread is Ihe hi iiff of life." It was Keals who said: "A thing of bounty is a joy forevei." "Man propose!, but God di-poses," re mark Thomas a Kempis. Franklin is uutlioii'y for ' (lid helps those who help themselves." "All cry and nu wool," is an exres sion found iu Butler's "lludil.ras." It was an observation of Thomas Southern that ''Pity's akin to love." We are indebted to Colley Cihbi r, not to Shakespeare, for "Richaid is himself again." K hvard Coke, the English jurist, was of ihe opinion that "A man's hoiis-i is his eas'le."

' Of two evils 1 have chosen the hast" and "The end inu-t- justify the means" are from Matthew Piior. To Milton we owe "'I he Parull-e of foils," "A wilderness of swe-els," and "Moping inelanch ily and moonstruck madness." Chiislopher Marlowe gave forth I he invitation so often repe-a'cd by bis broth ers iu a lesi public way: ' Liveme lit tle, love iuj long."
