J am going to narrate, was in a narrow valley, lying close to the footof a perpendicular cliff of rock about one hundred feet high. On its. hate .sides neither grass Sox shrub was'to her seep* and scarce any inequality was visible, on which the foot of the climber might find s resting place. In fact it Was considered un scalable for a distance of two miles, when it sunk down gradually at either end to the level of the plain. Ascending the cliff, one beheld on the summit a wide plain, stretching off in the distance from the sharp edge of the precipice, and from that dizzy point could look down upon the works of the miners below, close under its sides. . Upon the top of the cliff, which I lure been was stroiliog listlesalv late one Sonifayiriyrhoan, tfctwfeinf 1 strange B*3 i«d weamigtattcl im iwi BT JOStPU.XnUKKAJT. ‘l. about a year ago in our family. My'only brother, a lad of fifteen, had gone out early On a summer morning to shoot Eloyer the heights, and from that hour adf nearer been heard of. When last seen ■he was mounting the cliff from the east ern ifiide,' and though (when alarmed at his long delay) we made immediate search and inquiry; we never gained further informa- OTp apeak of our family distress and my pwn heart-grieving for my well-belov ed brother,' is not now my purpose j but it was the only subject of my thoughts on that qhiet summer evening, when all the noisip from the works was hushed, and the j stillhess seemed tenfold by contrast. I approached very near the edge of the cliff; I was now at its steepest part, and looking down its smooth sides, I thought hoy: terrible the fall would be; but my brother could not have fallen down. In thatioase’his mangled body, at least, would have been found. I jwap. recalled to myself by a strange sinking;of my feet. My first confused'idea was that; the soil had given way from the edge; of the cliff, upon whose utmost verge I stood,; and that I was about to be precip- tp (he bottom. I became diezy with horror,, for I felt at once that I could not recover myself, so sudden was the caving in of the: earth beneath me. I made one stumble! forward, felt a ringing and crush ing.in my ears, and then I lost all further sensation.; Itrndst have been many hours before I was suffieieutly conscious to know that I still existed Sick and bruised, I was long unable tej praise myself from the prostrate position in which I became aware at last, that | wasjying. It was quite dark, and every portion of earth or stone that I touched Was wet, and a snaOH of damp salt pervaded the close atmosphere. I thought I hadxfallen into an exhausted silt mine, but Soojd’ remembered that I had bten standing pn the edge of the cliff. It was an impossibility. Then came the idea that I must have-fallen to the bottom and the loose earth and stones had fallen over me. That, too, I soon found .equally-un likely, ahd after groping about some time on my hands and knees, (every movement one of intense agony) I became sdre that my prison was a cave of some extent. Too weak to niove further, I lay down and en deavored to think of my position. It seem ed a hopeless one. I was certainly in one ■of those; caves formed in the salt rocks, and sometimes found by miners, running far below the earth’s surface. I had no idea how far 1 had fallen ; it might be but a few fept j it might be many hundred. As yet I jCOuld find no trace of the passage through which I had dropped, but I re membered that I had a case of matches in “J pocket, and it was not long before I succeeded "in dragging them out, though ■it wasj excruciating pain to my bruised limbs to move them. Haying no taper, I determined to be very eyeful of the .matches, and to im prove the short moment of light, during which I one would last, I rubbed it very carefully against the sole of my boot, then harder, then furiously—but it would not ignito l Then X tried another with po bet ter success. They were too damp—every thing Was damp; the matches were use less. With a foin.t hope of drying them in time, I put the box into my breast, and buttoned my vest over it. What with my foilmelin procuring a light, and the pain of my jbrulses, added to my terror andbe r wlldermebt of mind, I suffered intensely. Through all, it became clear to me that instead of foiling over I had fallen through the cliff—|-strange as it was that hollow groand. shopld occur so ncar the edge with out the external Wall of the cliff caving in towards it,; The space through which I had fallen! must have been narrow, for my body was bruised and the skin torn from my sides, jwith strips of my clothing (that I could foe*- Oh f for a light' to examine betterinto imy miserable position; but, after all, I did not foci without hope.

I -Bad to acknowl | edge to myself that my only chance of escape seemed the hole or crack through which I had fallen; but no ray of light betrayed that spot—earth and stories must have fallen and choked it up. Parching with thirst, and faint from bodily injuries I was almost at the point of despair, when a distant sound fell upon my car._i. I lis tened with intense attention. Soon, more and more distinctly, I recognized the noise of machinery, the rumbling of carts, and the voices of men-; then a bell rang, and, with a throb of joy, I recognized the mor ning summons to the laborers in the works. A night only could have passed-since my leaving the outer world, llad they missed me? Alas! there was nothing to lead them to suspect the spot of my captivity. I thought of the strange disappearance of my young brother—this double bereave ment would kill ray poor mother; but still I was comforted by the knowledge that only a partition of rock separated me from my fellow-men. Now I could almost distinguish their voices. I felt that it was vain to hope that my calls and shouts could be heard by them, yet I could not forbear shouting till I was quite exhausted.' Then I reflected the means I could find of digging away the barrier of rock It could not be thick—l knew that by my faculty in hearing sound, And concluded that, as I had fallen close to the edge of the cliff, I had sunk straight down to the level of the valley at its foot, and possibly the wall of my prison was not more than two or three feet in thickness. But I had no implement save my knife, and that was a slender one, quite inadequate to cutting a passage through even the soft and damp salt rock which formed the partition.— Suddenly I remembered having picked up a heavy iron ox shoe on the road, during my Sunday walk. It was still in my pock et. With what joy I pulled it out, and com menced eagerly my work. X. will not detail the agonies of those days arid nights, when I worked os in the darkness, sometimes encouraged, some times nearly hopeless. I could not find that I made any visible progress ; and sounds were nearer than at first, and I was grow ing hourly more exhausted- from fatigue and burning thirst, The salt air of the cave inflamed my eyes, parched my skin, and excoriated my throat, and often I had a horrible idea that I should go mad; I had wound up my watch five times, there fore it most have been the sixth day —de- liverance as far off as ever. I had been trying to loosen a fragment of rock which seemed somewhat detached from the stra ta, (this I could only judge by my feel ing-,) If I succeeded, I should much re duce the thickness of the barrier at that point, but I had to stop and rest for the final triril. I ugain tried my matches. — I had constantly done so hitherto, but without success, and few remained; but now the third one that I tried gave forth a light smoke, then a blue flame, arid final ly a clear red light. I held it carefully and beheld the cavern in which I was im mured. It was a small one, and sparkling from the saline crystals, as if studded in geme. Opposite to me wap a ( darfe object, on. a projection of the shelving rock, and bearing a similarity to the outline of a hu man figure. I lifted high the expiring matqh, and by its last ray. I saw a human face. In a frenzy of impatience I tried a few remaining matches, in vain; the last one was in my hand ; more carefully I drew it over the sand-paper; it burned only for an instant; but in that instant, holding it di rectly even with the body, I recognized the dead, pale face of- my poor, dost bro ther Henry. I was again in darkness, with the dead body and my frenzied thoughts. After a time I resumed fiercely my labor at the rock. A few more blows loosened it; a few more and the large mass rolled in wards, and from a fissure in the rock which lay behind it, came inji narrow streak of daylight. I was almost mad, or 1 would not have had sufficient strength to effect my purpose. By the aid of my ox-shoe, I soon in creased the hole, till it was large enough to admit my head My shouts soon brought assistance from the works, to which, as I ■had Supposed, I was very near, and soon from that fearful tomb were drawn the li ving and the dead bodies. No one knew me til! X spoke. The body of poor Hepry had beep preserved by the spit, and was also partly-petrified. That he had been killed hy thefallwas evident, ahd had never inoved from: the ridge on which he fell. ;I pever entirely recovered from the effect of tbpsalli, which left my eyes and Pose constantJy red, and render ed my flesh ever' Piter similar to corned pork. - " ISuHe who gives with it* JGndneaß i# ih© hood.of friendship, and the rivulet of love } hewhosows not, reap? not. : - •' i j&fi t&seaoe atlegilkaa employ- ifo*- " "■■■•' m - - c'jsrOi ,iy l m. ... m» mow, isl <»ißftßy Buioides u despair. * : i K-;- Imprisoned lit a Ttitf^lS Anewspaperpublishediat Colema, Mint* iso, on the 24th of Oetphor, tolls the ftl lowing frightful story, and calls upon the public to punish thd criminals: —When Gen.

Theourate acted as though he would pay, but he did not make hia appearance #t the point des ignated for payment, and Gen. Pneblita ordered him tv be arrested. A party of men went to his'dwelling and knocked at j the door; there was no and they broke in. They found no one in toe bouse, and were about to leave it, wheii they heard a frightful voice, proceeding from the ground, saying, lam hungry !” The officer in command went back to Gen. PuebUta and told him about the voice. The General appointed a commis sion to examine the house.' This commis •sion wfcnt to the curated dwelling, and, after a careful examination, they found a moveable stone in the floor, and under this was a stairway - leading down to a vault, which was entirely dark, and had no connection with the -air, save by the staircase, and a small hole that served as a ventilator. In this vault some books, a few articles of furniture, and a woman who had been shut up there for eighteen years. She was taken to Gen. Pueblita’a quarters. When brought; into, the light, where she saw a number of persons, she fainted. After she,had returned to her senses, a thousand questions were asked of her, to whioh she replied only that she bad been buried in that vault for eighteen years, without going out for a moment; that she had been married, and had chil dren by her husband, but she knew noth ing of their fate; that,.while imprisoned in the vault, she .had children by the cu rate, but she knew nothing of what had become of these children £ and after say ing this much she obstinately si lent. While this was passing, a sergeant of the PuebUta Brigade, thfen present, dis covered that this woman was hia mother, and she recognized him as her son and embraced him. The son 1 then ran to his father, who came and recognized his wife. The husband, fifteen years ago, was im prisoned three years undercharge of hav ing murdered his wife, this woman. A Bear Story. A correspondent of the Louisville Jour nal famishes that paper With the follow ine adventure with a ‘‘bar“ You know that down in Arkangaw is a greato many bars. Well, last winter, when I was down at Cousin Joe’s, I had hearu of a bar in that neighborhood that had been round them digging for some time.
