A NEBvotrs flrAinw. Physicians say
that m rvou?complaints have never been
more freqneht then thejrare at the pres
ent time. Men axe suffering from nervous
exbanstion, women from hysterics and
extreme depression of spirits. The cause
is not diffieultto be Ascertained. Daring
the cold, dry weather of February and
March, the ipmospbere was surcharged
with electricity to an unnanal and re
markable degree." The human system
was thus stimulated loan unusual extent,
and the warm, damp days of April, in
which the atmosphere was almost devoid
of electricity,* following immediately af
er the diy and cold days of the proceed
ing two months, produced a feeling of
nervous exhaustion such as the bard
drinker feels when he b-eaks his evil
habit for a few h'ya. This explanation,
which is that fives by one of the leading
physicians of tiH eotftttjy, is eertainly
founded en fact, and seems extremely
probable. _

A Strange Discovery In Florida'
During the heavy galea which prevailed
la-t fall, the tide, u out occasion, wu*
driven so low in the North River, that a
remarkable discovery was made. AboiU

mains of an ancient city were discovered.
1 Several wells, walled in with coqmnu.
are now visible, uuder -water ; but the
j foundations of the houses can bo felt
I with a pole.
On tue occasion of the discovery, a
gale had prevailed for four or five days
from the north—driving the water out of
i the river to an extent uavrr lie fore known
Further investigations have also brought
to light a eoqninu quarry on this anno "
i site ; and what is more remarkable, the
quarry is in the midst of a dense ham
mock—and which any one can s* now
bv taking the trouble to go there. The
■ ruck is of a quality equal to any on Anos
' tasia Island, and the quarry has been
extensively used, doubtless for the pur
pose of bniMing the city or settlement of
St. Augustine—for one or the other it
certainly was.
The question which naturally arises is,
by whom was this settlement m.tdc—by
natives of this continent or Europeans ?
All historiographers agree that POMS de t
Leon, a companion of Columbns. in his
second voyage, first touched on this New
World nt a poiut three miles north of St.
Augustine. Say they, cue and all. "he
found the natives fierce and implacable."
l'.nt at this period—lsl2—all liistorv is
silent, and we hear nothing more of Flori
da or America until 1526, when Narvaex '
arrived on the western or gulf coast.
Who will solve this mystery ? Perhaps
it may throw light on the history of
America, hitherto concealed. Fur let it
r.-maailx red that St. Angustine was
the first city settled in Anu rica.

what students at Vale bare actually paid
for their tuition and substance. In tb

at 82V i a year and others whw sjent

for young men to spend a larpe amount
of monev if they have it at command :
and, on the other hand, an indigent and
ambitious youth can approximate to the

pher to a surprising degree if lie tries.

Greenland last moijth. Ho particulars of
the occurrence hud reached St. John's
np to the date of the transmission of a

was procured from a French trader, who
says that a vessel which ffiilnd from
Greenland and put into the harbor of St.
Pierre announced that Capt. Hall had
arrive! in Greenland on board of the

trader understood the news, he believed
the Polaris was net homeward bound,

The Htra— sf a *ap(M*#d FUtel.
The scene of this item is laid in San
Francisco, ou Washington stre.-t, near
Lmvenworth. The h >nr was late—ju.t
midnigiif. A gentleman was wsudtng his
way homeward, Uioaghtfaliy calculating
how much was left of the money he col
lected >luruq{ the day. "Fifty cents (or
cigars ; theaterßm! extras ftreatxconuhil
in), four dollar*; new hat, ten dollar* ;
fonrtecu dollars and fifty cents —yes. fif
ty cents for those extra car Uckete. That
just makes fifteen dollar*. Eighty dwllur>
polh* Ual -yea, lie re's two •wenties and w
fire in this |>ock<-t —hers's a roll of half
dollars in the othor- that's ju*t right—
sixty-five dollar*. I'll juit give—"'
"Sixty-five dollars ! Wi'lJ, bußd nArr
the cash, sir, and don't lo long about
it I"
The capitalist was startled from his
reycrie by these word*, nttered iu a M-rt
of growling and uetenniued manner by
the iuidiiigli/ stranger. It was like the
nightnuire. He trembled from head to
foot —stood stock still and looked with
terror at tlie robber.
" Com", now, hurry np! Pork over
the cash 1 No fooling ! Now you can't
1.-ave here, sir, until you pass in the
checks 1"
This second appeal to hi* pocket and
end his life awoke the victim to a con
sriousoens of his dreadful situation
" Au-h. h-mme got T—yon—what do
you want ?" ho murmured, while trying
to para on- One hand was clutching the
dear twenties and the five ; the other was
fast to the toll of silver.
"Come, now ! out with your pockets !
Come down with the cash f"
It was evidently a case of life and
death. Cash would nppcase the villain.
A lucky thought:
" Yes, that's it I'll give him the roll
of silver, and he won't tliiuk I've got any
more."
Then to the robber with excited tones ;
"Here's what you want—take that." The
right arm was suddenly drawn from the
IKx-ket, and the roll of silver was extend
ed toward the robWr, while the unfortu
nate man shrunk into an attitude of holy
terror and hope only.
The roll was [wonted at the robber's
breast—the poor fellow who was yielding
liiajparnng looked desperate in the dim
light. One look, and that was enough.
?" *"Oh! Don't shoot! Don't shoot I
I don't want your money." The brave
roail agent wns skedaddling down t*c
wtfnr t and was soon around the corner
before the gentleman could realize the
aiteicd position thai affair* had lakeu.
With the muzzle of that ominous roll of
silver cxteuded before, hs safely reached
tritrhoine, and ha* since oonchided that
hi* preseocc of mind vnu wonderful, *nd
that it. was a bright idea to frighten off
hia assailant by good strategy.

happen thst sailors are in demand with

j but it shooid be understood that as a gen

It is to b# presumed that nu>tof them w ili

in one crew of eighteen men shipped in
Boston for an East India voyage, four of
the men had never been on a voyage bo

Maine w ho went to Boston, got on sspree,
snd was picked up by the sharks. 111*
