I ii it-test in:; i'ltc-iiotui-iia at Sea.
The anchor liner Anchoria, just
urived in New York after a quick
run. reports as follows : About 250
miles east, of the American coast,
and on the borders' of the Gulf
stream, the vessel passed through
phenomena which, although fre-
ttetit on a sinuii scale, are e.-
iiemely rare on such maximum
grandeur of scale as that which
enraptured the observers on the
Anchoria. Alter the vessel had
been running over twenty-four
hoars in a dense fog, the water
around suddenly become so lumin
ous that the mile-long shoals of
small nsn darting around tne ves
sel seeking refuge from the sharks
and other devouring enemies, gave
the sea the appearance oi a vast
caldron of boiling jewels, while
the furrows of foam from the great
shi'ih&oabJ
masses'bf light inelWflmtisrff,.--?
dered the smallest thread in the
siup's rigging as clearly visible as
a origlit sunshine, and enveloped
the vessel in such a mass of da: -zling
light violet-colored glare, that
the engines had to be slowed a few
liours until a storm of wind burst
ing out from the northeast, cleared
off the log and broke the whole
visible surface of the ocean into
living crests of flame-like foam of
such brilliancy that the whole -
ocean seemed ablaze with the
tleoting, flashing flame, the whole ' :
horizon line having the appearance
of an immense belt of light blue
fire. In short, the whole phenom
enon was such an one as is rarely
seen, the oldest and widest trav- :
eled seamen having never seen
anything at, all to compare with it.
This beautiful pyrotechnic displav '
ot nature lasted from 1 1 p. m. until
M :o0 p. m. until lost in the eclipsing
light of dawn.
French Women and ."itruslturg.
General Boulanger repudiated to
our representative the other day,
as a libeion the women of , Jfouaoo.
the remark, attributed to M.
Grevy, that "there was nota singlu
mother in Bordeaux or Marseilles
or elsewhere who would not semi
her son to die for the sake of re
storing Strasburg to France."
Ye shall see," said the general,
"who is right." Like a sensible
man he is setting to work to fulfill
his own expectation, if he can,
and is going to distribute 2,500,000
t iree copies ot his history ot the
war of 1870, in which a .specir.l
appeal is made to the "grand?
mothers, mothers, wives, betrothed
daughters and sisters" of France.
It will be interesting to see whether
th; description of the massacre oi
the French sons in; 1870 will in
crease the willingness of French
mothers . in '"-1 888 to devote theisi,
sons afresh.-'.' One would have been
inclined to think not. Veresteha
gin's pictures of war, one knows,
were interdicted in liussia for their
pacific tendency. But General
Botilanger's history is, perhaps,
written in the school of romanco
rather than of realism.

while sirolling in the swamp ad
joining the town of Chattanoche,
Ga., happened to kick away alitJe
dirt along the banks of the river,
recently covered by water and
much washed by the recent over

gold watch was revealed. He
kicked away a little more earth
and another ticker made its ap
pearance. He began to think he
had unearthed an underground,
watch factory. He continued his
digging, and the result of his find
was four gold watches, valued at
$100 each, and two silver watches
valued at $2(f each. It is supposed
that some burglar, closely pursued,
buried the watches there" and then
escaped to Florida.

quences. "A stitch in time Baves
