A CURIOUS n ILL STORY.
The Mammoth Cave was originally the
property of Yatewood (believed to
have been the progenitor of the family of
that name now residing in the vicinity of
Richlapd, Madison county), who at some
'time Irevious to the war of 1812-tire
precise date not being known—sold it to
Messrs. Gratz & Wilkins, of Lexington.
During the war of, 1812 these gentlemen
used the cave for the manufacture of salt
petre, and it is probable that it had been
used for that purpese previously, as
Messrs. Gratz & Wilkins entered upon
the work immed ately upon securing pos
session of it.,lth the close of the war,
the production "villainous saltpetre"
ceasing to be p fitable, Gratz and Wil.
kiss disposed 'f the property to Mr.
Franklin Gprin,now of Bowling Green,
~?
who first open it to the public as a
place worthy or resort, though with but
few visitor:lt arid consequently limited pec•
uniary success. i Gorin,in turn,sold out to
Dr. John Croghan, of Locust Grove,
near Louisville, iwho continued the busi
ness inaugurated by Franklin Gorin 1. e„
keeping it open for .public visitation as
the greatest and moat wonderful natural
.curiosity in the known world. Dr. Crcig
ban dying with ut children, and having,
'during his E edit travels, been greatly
prepossessed with the entailment laws
which he there found in operation, devi
sed pis property-to his nine nephews and
niecesby a will equally remarkable for'
the succinctness and lucidity of its pro.'
visions and its singularity. ' Under this
will three trustees were named, only one
of whom, J. R. Underwood, accepted the
trust,)and has since managed - the pro
perty.
By the provisions of this remarkable
testamentary- document the trustee is
required to lease the hotel property for
terms not exceeding five years, and to
keep an agent to receive "cave fees"
(that is fees charged for exhibiting the
cave), whose duty it shall be to provide
guides, lamps, oil, and all things neces.
-sary to,the safe and .satlsfactory exhibi
tion of the property, the profits accruing
from all sources to be divided, after de
fraying all expenses, in equal proportion
among the legaties during their lives.
After the death of all the nine nephews
and nieces, the trustee was directed to
sell the property, and divide the proceeds
among the children of said nephews, and
nieces.
Some of the, devisees being much
younger than the trustee, it is more than
probable that he will die before some of
them, in which case he was authorized to
appoint a successor.' with like powers to
carry into effect the wishes 01 the testator.
Such brietlyls the nature of this singu
leo will, the stringentprovisions of.which
have rendered, it ,impossible to improve
the property, as would otherwise have
been done. Propositions have been
made to erect a magnificent hotel, with
all the modern improvements, costing
Si 100,000, provided they could obtain a
lease for twenty years, but this, being
impossible under this will, fell through.
The requirements that the income shall
be annually divided between the devisees
has equally prevented improvement. But
for this I doubt not that the Mammoth
Cave would be to-day, as it should be, the
most popular and the most extensively
patronized place of resort in the United
States'or the world. Given for the cave
the facilities of access and the convenien
ces of Saratoga, aided and assisted by
judicious advertisement, which last, 1 - .7
the way, , it does not have even to a limi
ted degree, because they now have more
than they can accommodate during the
• season, and Baden Baden, with all its
gambling and other fast attractions,
would' not have a greater crowd. In
proof of which assertion I woulfmention
the.arrival'to-day of 122 guests.—Louis

A MARVELOUS MENDICANT.
The London Daily News is responsible
for the following story. It is, 'at all events,
well told: • . • •
"Many strange stories are told of the
wealth accumulated by' blind beggars,
and Pe t rie seems to be their paradise. It
is a thriving trade, this blindness, and
two Pretty stories have jtist now turned
up together. One is of a pretended blind
man, who has found out a new method
of picking pockets. He walks the streets
with the sad, upturned visage of a blind
man; till he comes to a crowded crossing,
where he gives every token of being
afraid to gross. Some charitable creature
takes his arm and leads him across. He
is thanked by the poor blind man; he
goes on his way feeling that he has done
a kind deed; and the next time he puts
his hand into his pocket for his watch he
finds that it is gone.
"The other story is of a really blind
man, who is always to be found en
sconced in a gateway on the Boulevard
, Sebastopol, nearly opposite" the square
des Arts-et-Metiers. A certain Parisian
often passed that way, and was in the
'habit of giving him a penny—a two sons
piece; but the other day by mistake he
dropped into the poor fellow's hat a dou
ble lows or forty . francs. ' Some time af-
P terward - he discovered his mistake, and
off he ran-to the - ,o,oulevard Sebastopol to
•get back his money. No beggar was
'there, bat in his place a cripple. 'Where
;is the blind man?' said the benevolent
-man. 'Do you' mean Monsieur Ben
jamin?' replied the cripple. 'He-has just
gone—he hasgone to"lls house te break
fast.' 'ls it far?' 'Only 'a couple of
steps in the Ttuide Petit Cirdeau.' Away
-went the inquirer to the address indica
tedi which he , soon found, 'Monsieur
Benjamin herd?' he says to the concierge.
`All right, second floor; door to the right,'
was the answer
•
"He mounted the Stairs, rang r
at the
door. nicely dressed servant came to
open it. 'Monsieur Benjamin in?' 'Yes,
tar; , our friend is shown into an elegant
ante-room, through which one could see
i n t o a dining-room, where there•was a
tableadiairably appointed With fla e white
linen, crystal and silver. It teemed as if
r there must be an error; but Ahem was lit
tle time to consider; the maid came
quickly to say, that . Monsieur .Benjamin
would be glad to see, his Yisitor, and at
the same , instant the opened the door of
-the apartment furnished in Turkish fash
ion, in which the blind man, smiiing,was
seated on a divan, _ wished to speak
to me?' he said. , indeed eir, re
plied our friend, rather embarrassed; I'
am very sorry to tronble you, but,the fact
-is—l believe —I rather think—that
passing along the • Boulevard Sebastopol
this morning gave you by mistake two
louts for two sous." - -

answered by, the maid. • 'Ask Mr. ; Er

morning he 'has found a piece of forty
francs. The piece was there; the maid
fetched it, and at the bidding of her mas
ter, presented it on a tray of Chinese lac
to his visitor. The visitor pounced upon
his coin, and, without more ado, pro-,
ceeded to take his leave. 'Pardon, sir,'
said the blind man, 'you forget some
thing—there are two sous to return me."'
An Eloquent Description of an Eclipse
As a proof that man is not alone-affect
ed by an eclipse, we insurt the following
eloquent decription by the great Ameri
can writter, Fenimore Cooper:
I'was recalled by a familiar and insig
nificant incident, the dull tramp-of hoofs
on the village bridge. A few cows,
believing that night had overtaken them,
were coming homeward from the wild
open pastures above the village. And
no wonder the kindly creatures were de
ceiVed; the darkness was • now much
deeper than ',the twilight which usually
turns their faces homeward; the dew fall
ing perceptably (as much so as et any hour
of the previous night), and - the coolness
-was so great that the themometer must
have fallen many degrees from . -the great
heat of the morning. The lake, the bills,
anti the buildings of the little town were
swallowed up ,In the darkness. The ab
sence of the usual lights in the dwellings
rendered the obscurity still more !mores.'
sive.' All 'labor bad ceased, and - the,
hushed voices of the people only broke the'
absolute stillness by subdued whispering;
tones. "Whisk! The whippoorwill!";
whispered a friend near me, and at the'
same moment, as we listened in profound
silence. we distinctly heard from the
eastern bank of the river the wild, plain
tive note of this solitary bird of night
slowly repeated at intervals. The song
of the summer birds, so full in June, had
entirely ceased for the last half hour. A.
bat came flitting about our heads. Many
stars were now visible, though not in
sufficient number to lessen the darkness.
At one point only, in the far-distant
Northern horizon, something of the
brightness of dawn appeared to linger.
At twelve minutes past eleven the moon
stood revealed in its greatest distinctness
'—a vast black orb, so nearly obscuring
the sun that the face of the great lumina
ry was entirely and absolutely darkened.
though a corona of ; light appeared be
yond. The gloom of night was upon us.
A breathless intensity of interest was felt
by all. • * * * In looking back to that
impressive hour, such now seem to ma
the feelings of the youth making one of
that family group, all apparently im
pressed with a sensation of the deepest
awe. I speak with certainty. A clearer
view than I had over yet had of the majes
ty of the Almighty, accompanied with a
humiliating and, I trust, a profitable
sense of my own utter insignificance.
That movement of the moon; that sublime
voyage of the worlds, often recurs to my
Imagination, and, even at this distant
day, as distinctly, as.. majestically, and
nearly as fearfully, as it was then beheld.
A group of silent, dusky forms stood
near me. One emotion appeared to gov
ern ail. My father stood immovable
some fifteen feetfrcm me, but I could
not discern his features. Three minutes
of darkness, all but absolute, elapsed.
They appeared strangely lengthened by
the intensity of feeling and the overpow
ering thought which filled the mind.
Thus far the sensation, created by this
majestic , spectacle had been one of hu
miliation and awe. It seemed as if the
great Father of the Universe had visibly
and almost palpably veiled His face in
wrath. But appalling as the withdrawal
of the light had been, most glorious, most
sublime was its restoration. The corona
'of light above the moon became suddenly
brighter, the heavens beyond were
nated, the stars retired, and the light be
gan to play along the ridges of the dis
tant mountains. And then a flood of
, grateful, cheering, consoling brightness
fell into the valley with a sweetness ands
power inconceivable to the mind unless the
eye has actually beheld it. I can liken
this sudden, joyous return of light, after
the eclipse, to nothing of the kind that is
familiarly known. It was certainly near
est to the change produced by the swift
passage of the shadow of a very daik
cloud; but it was the effect of this instan
taneous transition multiplied more than
a thousand fold. It seemed to speak di
rectly to our spirits, with full, assurance
of protection, of gracious mercy. and of
that divine love which has produced all
the - glorious combinations of matter for
our enjoyment. It was not in the least
like the gradual dawning of day, or the
actual rising of the sun. There was no
gradation in the change. It was sudden,
amazing, like what the imagination
would teach us to expect of the advent of
a heavenly vision. I know that-phil
osophically I am wrong; but to me it
seemed that'the rays might actually be
seen flowing through the darkness in tor
rents, till they had again illuminated the
forest, the Mountains, the val t jey, and the
lake with their glowing, genial touch.
There was tuaother grand movement as
the crescent of the sup reappeared, and
the moon . was actually seen steering
through the void. Venus was still
shining brilliantly. * * Men who wit
ness any extraordinary spectacle together
are apt, in after times, to find a pleasure
in conversing on its impressions. • • But I
do not remember to have heard a singlb
being freely communicative on bia indi
vidual feelings at the most solemn Mo
ment of the eclipse:- It would seem Ate if
sensations were aroused too 'closely,eon,
nected with the ccnastitution Of the sPirit.
to be IrreverentlY and 'familiarly 4111C111 . 1 . 7

never. have I beheld any spectacle which
so plainly manifested the 'majesty of the

liar SCHENCK'S' PIJILNIONIC
SYRUP. SEAWEED TONIC' AND
MANDBASIC PILLS will cure Consumption,
Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia, if taken accord
ing to directions. They are all three to be taken
at the same time. They cleanse the stomach, re
lax the livor and put lutes work; then the appetite
becomes good; the food digests and makes good
blood; the patient begins to grow in flesh; the
diseased matter ripens into the lunge, and the
patient outgrows the disease and gets well. This
is the only way to cure consumption.
To these three medicines Dr. J. H. Schenck. of
Philndelphia, owes his unrivaled success in the
treatment of pulmonary Consumption. The Pal-
monic Syrup ripens the morbid matter In the
lungs nature throws It o ff by an easy expectora
tion, }pr when the phlegm or matter Is ripe a
slight conghlyill throw It off, and the patient has
rest and the lungs begin to heal.
T., do this, Hite Seaweed 'ionic and Mandrake
Pills must be freely used to cleanse the stomach
and liver. so that the Pulmonic Syrup and - the
food will make good blood.
Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver,
removing all obstructions. relax the nncts of the
gall bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver
is noon relieved: the stools will show what the
Pills can do; nothing has ever been invented ex
cept calomel (a deadly poison wilch Is very dssn
gerousto use umess with great care,) that will
unlock the gall bladder and start the secretions
of the liver likeSchenck's Maudrake
Liver Complaint id one of thle - liabst prominent
causes 'of Consumption.
Schenck's Seaweed Tonic is a gentle stimulant
and alterative. and the alkali In the -Seaweed,
which this, preparation is made ot, assists the
stomach to turow ant the gastric Juice to dissolve
the food with the Pulmonic Syrup, and It is made
into good bAnad without fermentation or souring
ha the stomach.
The great reason why physicians do not .cnre
Consumption I% they try to do ton much: they
',give medicine to stop the cough, to stopebille,to
stop night sweats, hectic fever and by so doing
they derange the whole digestive powers, lock..
tog up the secretions, and eventually the patient
sinks antrdies.
Dr. Schenck, In his treatment, does not try
stop *cough, night sweats, chills or fever. ice
move the cause, and td‘ey will all stop of their
own accord. No one can be cured of Conisump-
Hon, Liver Complaint, Dycpepsla, Catarrh,
Canker, Ulcerated Throat, unless the liver and
stomach are made healthy.
If a person nas consumption, 'of course the
nags In some way are diseased. Oilier tubercles,
&Worsen, bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion,
or the lungs are a mass of inflammation and fast
deeming. In such cases what mast be done? It
Is not-only the lungs mat are wasting, but It is
the whole body. The stomach and liver have lost
their power to make blood out of fo .d. Now the
only chance is to tate Dr. Schenck , s three medi
cines, which will bring up a tone to the stomach,
the patient will begin to want food, It will digest
easily and make good blood; then the patient fle
et's to gain In flesh. and as soon as the body be
gins to grow. the duns commence to heal up,
and the patient gets &Shy and well. This is tee
only way to cure Consumption.
• When there is no lung disease and only Liter
Complaint and Dyspepsia, Schenck's Seaweed-
Tonic and Mandrake Pills are sufficient, without
the Pulmonlc Syrup. Take the Mandrake Pitts
freely in ad billions complaints, as they are per
fectly harmless.
Dr. Schenck, who has enjoyed uninterrupted
health for many years past, and now weighs 235
pounds. was wasted away to a mere skeleton, in
the very last stage of Pulmonary Consumption,
phy..lclans having pronounced ills case hope
less and abandoned hum to his fate. He was cared
by the aforesaid merictnes, and since his recover
n. many thousands similarly afflicted have used
Dr. Schenck's preparation with the game re
markable success. Full directions accompany
each, making It not absolutelynecessary to per
