(iKKAT NATURAL CURIOSITY!!
4 'A prophet is not without honor
save in his own country." So it is
with natural scenery. We go to Yo
semite and Niagara and fail to see
the beauties of nature in our imme
diate neighborhood.
In the afternoon of Aug, 2fist,
Professor M. and Mr. S. of Rebers
burg, Prof. Chatham, of Wayne
Station and the writer hereof, made
a visit to Stover's Cave, situate near
the homes of Messrs. Young and
Lose, one aud a half miles west of
Woodward. The cave opens into a
high hill on the right bank of Pine
Creek, and this creek when flooded
uses to discharge a large part of its
waters through the cave, as is shown
by the waters actiou on the smooth
ly worn rocks and the drift-wood
found in the first few chambers of
the cave. The first chambers are
large and contain beautiful stalacti
tes and stalagmires. There were
the usual fautastic shapes—altars %
tiro nee. gotbic steeples, forms of
valgus animals, bunches of fcauan.
as And clusters of Bologna sausages
It should take too long to describe
these. We saw stalagmites into
whose beautiful alabaster cups the
water was siowiy dripping when
Alexander weeps for more worlds to
conquer and when the Israelites
were making-brick for the pyramids
of.-Egypt.
\Wo had as\yetifenetrated only a
few - rods * into 'tbc .cave, and the
March for a continuous-gallery seem
ed, to be in vain. Prof. C,, who
liad visited the cave before, declared
that the he had previously
explored no longer existed—that it
waechoked'up. (Four or five open
ings we entered, but all had an eud
—choked up with mud and rocks.
Atiiast, howevei, we found the
"Borth-west passage," extending,
in this case, in a north-easterly di
rection. Crawliog through an open
ing- on our hands and kuees, we
cameunto a large cleft in the rocks
which we saw was a dangerous
place to pass through. Prof. M.
BDA Mr. S. remained behind—their
sieve of science was not great enough
*nd they had on their cl thes.
But the enthusiasm of Prof. C. was
not to be daunted. With the most
precarious foothold we passed
through the slippery cleft: the rock 8
that we threw into several openings
seemed to strike witer many feet
below. The cleft passed, we went
through a gallery varying much in
width and highth. How far we
went 1 cannot say, but we fetched
up in a spacious chamber the like of
which Prof. C., who is well versed
in cave-ology, never saw before. In
tbe centre of this chamber were
two altars of stone, each some three
feet square. One of them was flat
on the top and bore the marks of
fire. Toe other had a basin in the
centie, as if for the reception of
wa -er, and around |the basis were
two circles cut into the stone, di
vided into twelve sections, each sec
tion containing & character which
we could not deciper. On this lat
ter altar was found a slate tablet
covered with rude pictures of men,
elephants, birds, trees and various
hieoroglypbics. Scattered around
the chamber Prof. C, found four
hu?e bones which he recognized as
belonging to Elcphas Americanos.
These bones and the slate tablet are
now in the possession of Prof.
Chatham of Wayne Station, who in
tends to take immediate steps for
the removal of the altar and tbe
further exploration of tbe cave.
He invites the attention of the cu
rious to the slate tablet aud the
twelve characters on the divided cir
cles.
This is indeed one of the great dis
coveries of the age. What was the
use of these two altars, what mean
the inscriptions, and who were the
men who inhabited the cave—are
q uestious that will stir up the scien
tific world to its yery centre. At
last the glories of the Pcnn Hall
cave ate cast in the shade 1 at last
will tlie fame of Prof. C. that has
trembled so long In equiponderating
uncertainty, flash up into meridian
brilliancy and light up the walks of
future time with a radianee that
will eelipse the roarings of Niagara,
the wrecks of jhe Spanish Inquisi
tion and the lightnings of the Auro
ra Bolivar !
CARL SCHREIBEB.
llebersburg, Aug. 23tb, 1878.
The Brave Girl.
Far down upon the Carolina coast
lies the lovely isl and of St, John,
where stood, one hundred years ago,
a noble brick-built mansion, with
lofty portico and broad piazza.
It was the home of Mr. Robert
Gibbes and his beautiful young wife,
and the great house was full at aill
seasons. Eight children had aflreafl
y come to this good eoupJft, and sev
en little adopted cousins were their
playmates—tiie orphan children of
Mrs. Feu wick, sister to Mr. Gibbes.
He binreelf was a cripple and could
not walk. In a chair which ran on
wheels he was drawn daily over the
pleasant paths, sometimes by the
faithful black servants, sometimes
by the still more devoted children,
who tugged at ttie rope dike so many
frisky colts. The UovoHueas of the
spot suited well ite name of "Peace
ful Retreat,"" .by which tit was known
through all the country.
But in those trou )lous times it
could not always remain ''peaceful."
In the spring of 1779, the British
took possession of all tbe sea board.
General Prevost marched up from
Savannah and laid siege to Charles
ton. But hearing that Gen. Lin
coln was hasteniug on with his
army, he struck his tents in the
night and retreated rapidly toward
Savannah. He crossed the Stone
Ferry, and fortified himself on
John's Island, as the island -of St.
John was very often call ed.
For weeks now the noise of mus
ketry and heavy guns destroyed the
quiet joy at Retreat."
Tbe children, in the midst of play,
would hear the dreadful booming,
and suddenly grow still and pale.
Tteellest daughter, Mary Auu,
was a sprightly, courageous girl of
thirteen. She had the care of -all
the little ones, for her mother's
hands were full, in managing the
greatest estate and cariDg for her
husband.
After a time, the enemy deter
mined to take possession of this
beautiful place. A body of British
and Hessians quietly captured the
landing at midnight, and, creeping
stealthily onward, filled the park
and surrounded the house. At day
break the inmates found themselves
prisoners.
Then came trying days for the
family. The officers took up their
quarters in the mansion, allowing
the family to occupy the upper story.
John's Island was less than thirty
miles from Charleston, and when
the American otficers in the city
heard that "Peaceful Retreat" had
been captured by the British, they
determined to rescue it from the
enemy. Two large galleys were
immediately manned and equipped,
and sent to the plantation with
strict orders not to fire upon the
mansion.
Sailing noiselessly up tlio Stone
River, at dead of night, the vessels
anchored abreast the plantation.
Suddenly, out of the thick darkness
burst a flame and roar, and a shot
came crashing through the BritisV
encampment. The whole place was
instantly in an uproar. The officers
in the house sprang from bed, and
hastily dressed and armed. Tbe
family, rudely awakened, rushed to
the windows. A cold raia was fall
ing, and the soldiers, half-clad, were
running wildly hither and thither,
while officers were frantically call
ing to arms. Mary woke at the first
terrible roar and fled to • her moth
er's room. The excitable negro ser
vants uttered most pierciDg shrieks.
The poor little children were too
frigtened to scream, but clung trem
blingly to Mary.
Mrs. Gib bes was in great dis
tress. She knew not, at first,
whether it was an actack by friends
on the camp or an assault on the
house by the enemy. She ordered
the servants to cease their wailing
and dress themselyes. Then the
husband and children were prepared ;
and. while the cannon bellowed in
quick succession and the noise
arouud the house grew louder, the
fother and mother consulted what
was best to do. It was now evi
dent that the attack vaa by their
own friends, and its object was to
dislodge the euerav. But Mr.
Gibbes did not know that the house
would not be fired upon, and he ad
vised instant fight. He was carried
to bis chair, and the whole house
hold sallied forth from a back door.
The scene was terrific. The night
was pitch dark, and when, just as
they stepped out, a sheet of flame
belched forth fr:>m the vessels, it
seemed to be almost against their
faces* The roar shook the ground.
The troops were too busy saving
themselves to notice the fugitives,
and they pushed on as rapidly as
possible.
No one was sufficiently protected
from the rain. Little Mary had the
hardest part, for nearly all the chiU
dren were in her care. The mud
was deep. Some of the little ones
could walk but a short distance at a
time, and had to be carried—Mary
having always one, sometimes two
in her arms. Several of the ser
vants were near her, but none of
them seemed to notice her or her
burdens. The last horse had been
carried off that very day; there was
no escape but on foot.
Suddenly, a ball came crash
ing by them through the trees. Then
a charge of grape-shot cut the
boughs overhead. They were exact
ly in the range of the guns 3 It was
evident they had taken the woret
direction, but there was no help for
it now—it was too hrtebo turn lack,
lu her agouy, the mother cried aloud
on God to protect lier family. Mary
hugged closer the child in her arms,
aud trembled so she could hardly
keen up. Another crash ! The shot
shrieked psist them, striking the
trees in every direction. The as
sault was fierce the roar was inces
sant. The frightened family rush
ed on as swiftly as possible toward
a friend's plantation, far back from
the-shore:; but'it was soon seen
that they would not bare strength
to reach "t, even if *?hey were not
-struck down Uiy the dying shot.
The Americans ssere pouring their
fire tin to these woods, thinking the
enemy would seek refuge there.
The wretched fugitives expected
every moment to be their last. On
tliey pushed through mud and rain
and screaming shot.
Boon they found they were getting
more out of rango of the guns. They
began to hope ; yet now and then a
ball tore ap the trees around them,
or rolled fearfully across their path.
They reached oi\e of the houses
where their field-hands lived, with
no one hurt ; they were over a mile
from the mansion, and out of range.
The negroes said no shot had eome
that way. Unable to flee further,
>tbe family determined to stop here.
As soon as they entered, Mrs. Gib
bes felt her strength leaviug her,
and sank upon a low bed. Chilled
to the bone, drenclied, trembling
with terror aud exhaustion, the
family gathered around her. She
sprang up wildly.
"Oh, Mary !" she cried, 4 'where
is John ?"
The little girl turned pale, and
mraned. 44 0h, mother! mother 1
he's left !" She broke out crying.
The negroes, quickly sympathetic,
began to wring their hands and
wail.
"Silence!" said Mr. Gibbes, with
stern but trembling voice. The
tears were in his own eyes. The
little child now missing was very
dear to all, and, moreover, was
deemed a sacred charge, as he was
one of the orphan children of Mr.
Gibbes' sister, intrusted to him on
her death-bed.
The wailing ceased ; there was
silence, broken only by sobs, and
the master asked :
"Who is willing to go back for
the child ?"
No one spoke. Mr. Gibbes turn
ed to his wife for counsel. As the
two talked in low tones, Mrs. Gib
bes called her husbauds attention to
Mary, who was kneeling with clasp
ed hands, In prayer, at the foot of
the bed. In a moment, the little
maid rose and came to them, saying,
calmly :
"Mother, I must go back after
baby."
"Oh, my child," cried the moth
er, in agony, "1 cannot let you go !"
"But, mother, I must," pleaded
Mary. "God will care for me."
It was a fearful responsibility.
The guns yet roared constantly
through the darkness ; the house
might now be in flames ; it might
be filled with carnage and blood.
Mrs. Gibbes turned to her husband.
His face was buried in his bands.
Plainly, she must decide it herself.
With streaming eyes she looked at
Mary.
"Come here, my child," she call
ed through her sobs. Mary fell
upon her mother's neck. One long,
passionate embrace, in which alt a
mother's love and devotion *ere
poured out, and the clinging arms
were opened without a word. Mary
sprang up, kissed her father's fore
head, and sped forth on her danger
ous mission of love.
The rain had now ceased, but the
night was still dark and full of ter
rors, for through the street she saw
the frequent flashes of the great
guns. The woods were filled with
the burning echoes, so that cannons
seemed to be on every hand. She
flew on with all speed. Soon sle
heard the crashing trees ahead and
knew that in a moment she would
be face to face with death. She did
not falter. Now she was again in
the fierce "whirlwind I All aronnd
her the shot howled and shrieked.
On every side branches fell crashing
to the earth, A cannon ball plung
ed into the ground close beside her,
casting over her a heap of mud, and
throwing her down. She sprang up
and pressed on with redoubled vigor.
Not even that ball could make her
turn back.
She reached the house. She ran
to the room where the little child
usually slept. The bed was empty !
Distracten, she flew from chamber
to chamber. Suddenly she remem
bered that this night he had been
given to another nurse. Up into
the third story she hurried, and, as
she pushed open the door, the little
fellow, sitting up in bed cooed to
her and put out his hands.
With the tears raining down her
cheeks Mary wrapped the babe
warmly and started down the stairs.
Out into the darkness once more ;
onward with her precious burden,
through cannon-roar, through shot
aud shell! Three times she passed
through this iron storm. The bails
still swept the forest; the terrific
booming Jilled the air.
With the young child pressed
tightly to Iter brave young heart,
she lied on. Site neither stumbled
nor feW. The shot threw the dirt
in her faoe, and skewered the twigs
upon her head. Sot she was not
struck. In safety she steadied the
hut, and fell exhausted across the
threshold.
And the little boy tfcucs saved by a
girl's brave devotion, afterward be
came Genera! Fenwick, famous in
the war of lit 12.

As tbey warmed their becks in
the corridor of the pottdßce the
other day one of them began :
'"Yum—yum but didn't our
folks hare the boss thanksgiving
dinuer, though 1"
*'What jo have ?" ask the other,
14 What didn't we hare, you
mean I" exclaimed the first. 44 Let's
see : In the first place we had two
kinds of bread—light and heavy.

"No."
"Then you might as well stop
right here. You kin toot around

There is a young man ixr- the
neighborhood who is always melan
choly, and always out of work. The
other day he was asked by a kindly
disposed man whether he could find
no work. "Sir," said he, "the only
thing that clurs my happiness is my
appetite. Can I help it ?"
"No."
"The only thing that appeases my
appe'ite is my food. Can I help
it ?'
"No, certainly not."
"The only thing that procures me
food is money. C.m I help it ' *
''Of course not ; everybody has to
buy food."
"The only way for me to get
money is to work. Can 1 help it V"
"That is the best way to pet it."
But, sir," and here the tears came
rolling down his cheek, "there is the
tub. Work spoils my appetite, and
I haven't anything else to live for,*'
