Occasfonally it. Is a icouvcrslttion between

arc two sturdy angels, with fat, solid wings,

is a pair of indecent giants with clubs, or
a couple of snarling tigers., or a pa:r of

Sometimes a brace of resiivctablo muster

Looking at tlu highly refined aristocracy

Terrific Advekure is the Mammoth
Cave. At the supposed end of what has
always been considered the longest avenue
of tho Mammoth Cuve, nine miles from its
entrance, there is a pit, dark and deep ond
terrible, known as the Maelstrom. Tens
of thousands have gnzed into it with awe
whilst bcngul-lights wcro thrown down it to
make' its fearful depths visible, bat none
ever had the daring to explore it. ' The
celebrated guido Stephen, who was deemed
insensible to fear, was offered six hundred
dollars by the proprietors of the Cavo if he
would descend to tho bottom of it, but be
shrank from the peril. A few years ago,
a Tennessee professor, a learned and bold
man, resolved to do . what no one before
him had dared to do, and, making his ar
rangements with great care aud precaution,
he hud himself lowered down by a strong
rope a hundred feet, but, at that point, his
courage failed pirn, and he called aloud to
be drawn out. . No human power could
ever have induced him to repeat the appall
ing experiment. " . ' "" 1
A couplo of weeks ago however a young
gentleman of Louisville, whose nerves never
trembled at mortal peril, being at the Mam
moth Cave with Professor Wright of our
city and others, determined, no matter
what the dangers and difficulties might be,
to explore the depths of, the Maelstrom.
Mr. Proctor, the enterprising proprietor of
the Cave, sent to Nashville and procured
a long rope of great strength expressly for
the purpose. The rope aud some necessary
timbers were borno by the guides and oth
ers to the point of proposed exploration.
The arrangements being soon completed,
the rope, with a heavy fragment of rock
affixed to it, was let down and swung to
and fro to dislodge any loose rocks that
would be likely to fall at the touch. Sev
eral were thus dislodged, aud the long-continued
reverberations, rising np like Distant
thunder from below, proclaimed the depth
of tie horrid chasm. , Then the young hero
nf th o'xasion. with several hats drawn
over his head t protect it as far as possi
ble agafct any !? falling from above,
tad with a light in t-f 1'and and the rope
fostered around bis body", took his place
over the awful pit and directed the half
dozen, men, 'wbq held the end of the rope, (
to let him down into the Cimmerian 3iww.
We have heard from bis own lips an ac

'the sido of the pit wciit rusliing down the
uIjj-ks, ond as he ik-sccudi-U by the side of
tho fulling water and iu tbo midst of the
spray, he felt some, apprehension that Lis
light would be extinguished, but his care
! preveutcd this. lis was landed at tho bot-
torn of tho pit, a hundred and ninety
feet from the top. He found it al
most perfectly circular, about 18 feet in di
ameter, with a small opening at one point,
leading to a due chamber of no great ex
tent. Ho found on the floor beautiful
specimens of black silex of immense size,
vootly larger than were ever discovered Iu
any other part of tho Mammoth Cava, and
aho a multitudo of exquisite foruiutious as
pure and white as the virgin snow. Jink-
ing himself heard, with great effort, by bis
friends, ho at' length asked them to pull
him partly up. Intendinj to stop on the
way aud explore a cave that he had ob-
served opening about forty feet above the
bottom of the pit. Reaching the mouth of
thut cave, lie swung himself with much ex
ertion Into it, and, holding the end of the
rope in his hand, he incautiously let it go,
and it swung out apparently beyond his
reach. The situation was a fearful one,
and his friends above could do nothing for
him. Soon however ho made a hook of
tho end of his lump, aud, by extending him
self as far over tho verge as possiblo with
out fulling, he suecededin securing the rope.
Fastening it to a rock, he followed the
avenue 150 or 200 yards to a point where
he found it blocked by an impassable ava
laucho of rock, and earth. Returning to
tho mouth of this avenue, he beheld an al
most exactly similar mouth on the opposite
side of the pit, but, not beingablo to swing
himself Into it, ho rcfastcned tho rope
around his body, suspended himself again
over tho abyss, and shouted to his friends
to raise him to the top. ; The pull was an
exceedingly severe one, aud the rope, being
ill adjusted arouud his body, gave him the
most excruciating pain. But soon his pain
was forgotten in a new and dreadful peril
When he was 90 feet frotn the mouth of
the pit and 100 from the bottom, swaying
and swinging iu mid-air, he beard rapid
and excited words of horror and alarm
above, and soon leartied that the ropo by
which ho was upheld had taken fire from
tho friction of the timber over which it
passed. " Several momcuts of awful sus
pense to those above and still moro awful
to him below ensued. To them and him a
fatal and iustaut. .catastrophe seemed inevi
table. But the firo was extinguished with
a bottle of water belonging to himself, and
then the party above, though almost ex
hausted by their labors, succeeded In draw
ing him to tho top. ; Ho was as culm and
self-possessed as upon his entrance iuto the
pit, but oil of his companions, overcome by
fatigne, sank down upon the ground, and
his friend Professor Wright, from over-ex
ertion and excitement, fainted and remained
for a time insensible.

tor An important Army Order, issued
by the Secretary of War, provide for the
division of the present Department of the
Pacific into two distinct departments the
southern to bo called the Department of
California, with the hcadquaters at San
Francisco, to be commanded by Brevet

Department of Oregon, to embrace the
Territories of Washinjrton and Oreeon.
with the exception of the Rogue River and
Umpqua districts, with the headquarters at
Fort Vancouver, to be under the command
of Brigadier-General Harney. Tho great
extent of tho former department, and the
consequent length of time necessary for the
transportation of troops and supplies from
one extremity to the other, ore among tho
reasons which have induced this movemcut.
J Governor Denver, of Kansas, has

Tho Governor declines to call this extra
session, showing that at the present time
there are no members of the Legislature
whoso. official terms have not expired. He,
also expresses the opinion that the next
election should be held nnder the lost ap
portionment, according to the act of Feb
ruary 20, 1857. He concludes by saying
that he had consulted the President and
the Atorncy General of tho United States
on this point, and both agreed that the
next election should be held under this ap
portionment. i i !

tir According to tho U. S. census of
1850, there were employed in all the States
and Territories 719,479 males, and 225,512
females, In the manufacturing and mechanic
arts, with an aggregate capital of $527,
000,000; annual value of raw materials
$554,000,000; annnal product of manufac
tures $1,013,000,000; but the samo vol
ume represented the productive annual In
dustry of Massachusetts as ouly 151 mil.
lions and thut of New York as 237 millions
when In fact, at this date it may bo safely
assumed as COO millions together. Accord
ing to the U. S. census, the manufacturing
industry of these two SUitcs amounted to
888 millions, or 26 per cent of the wholo
Union.,' Assuming the State census of
these two States to bo correct, showing
thoir Joiut product to be 613 millions, this
would show the aggregate results for tho
whole Union to be 2,458 millions; or if
the manufacturing resources of all the
States were equal to those of the two States
named, tho manufacturing product of the
Union would be at the present timo about
8,400 millions of dollars.; As it Is,' wo
think wo do not overstate the manufactur
ing product of the Union aa over 2458
millions. Manufacturers have derived a
powerful impulse since tbe year 1850, and
the annual increase in products is iu a
far greater ratio than tbat of the pop
ulation, i ' , .-...'.:.. ' 'I ; ..
Ahead or the Aoe. Mr. Levi Davis,
of Ridgwny, Orleans county, New York,
Is, undoubtedly, tho farthest ahead of the
age of any individual now living. "' Ho
writes to tho New York Tribune, proposing
a railroad from tho United States , to Eu
rope.' ,Tbo thing is to be done by chopping
down the hills of New England and Scot
land, and casting them into the sea until a
ledge bno mile wido and sixty feet abovo
the level of the sea shall have been mude.
The road bed being thus constructed, tho
laying of tho rails will be a small job.
Mr. Davis estimates that the mineral dis
closed by digging away the hills, ond tho
sale of town lots on the road, will pay all
expenses. .' '

t& There is a remarkable negro boy In
Polk county, Texas, no bus two faces,
fixed on opposite parts of the head, with
mouth, nose, and chin so perfect that it is
impossible to tell which is the front face
when tbe body is hid from view. Ho is
about six years of age, healthy, and of very
sound mind, and runs and plays w ith other
children with as much sprightliness as could
bo expected from one of his age.

A little horseradish scraped and laid on

cases give speedy relief. A better way Is
to place a utile scraped horseradish in the

gum and face also. Tbe mouth may after
ward be rinsed with a little camphorated
water, lukewarm.
