• THE CAVE AT DELAWARE GAP.—Two
or' three .Years 'ago a Mr. Freer bought
1001 acres of laud on the irittating mows,
taro, near Delaware Qap. One day last
simmer Mr. Veer,. - while cutting wood
on the mountain, discovered near the base
a wall, ten or twelve feet high laid up, a
gainst a perpendicular precipice of appar
ently solid rock. He took down a pOr.
tion of the wall, and came to au opening
in the rook large enough - to - permit - the
passage of his body. The instant the o
pening was uncovered a strong current of
air escaped, it was so cold that Mr.
Frear was in a very short time chilled
through and through.
De ermined to explore this singular cav
ern, Mr. Freer entered the'opening. He
found himself in a large chamber, the
walls being of rough and jagged rocks.—
The cold was so intense that he could not
explore the cave further than fifty feet.
Since-then no person has penetrated fur
ther than sixty feet under the mountain.
The draft of air is so strong at the mouth
that trees thirty yards distant are kept in
constant motion. One can stand but a
few minutes in the mouth. A thermome
ter standing at ninety degrees above zero
will fall to thirty in the current.

A piece of pure lead; a gun barrel, and
a collection of bones were found by Mr.
Frear in the cavern. He threw the bones
in the river before ascertaining whether
they were human remains or not. .
A dog accompanied him on his first
exploring tour. The dog jogged on into
the cave. Since then it has never been
seed.
Hundreds of people have visited thisxe
rnarkable cavern, and witnessed the mys
terioui phenomenon of the cold' current of
air. No satisfactory explanation has as
yet been given as to the Cause.. There are
a number of crevices in the rocks near the
opening from which the cold air also issues.
Mr. Frear erected a temporary platform
in front of the cave. .A person standing
on this five minuets • would experience a
sensation of 'almost 'complete numbness.-
-It - was - the - owners intention to excavate a
passage way and erect a building over it
for the accommodation of inquiring visi
tors. He.was killed on the railroad, how
ever, before his project was carried out.—
The cave is considered one of the great
est curiosities of the world.
A PAUPER HEIR TO A LARGE FOR-
Tu.:sm.—Samuel Miller, thirty-five years a
go, was a dull-witted, :harmless man, float
ing about Easton, Pa. He lived on the
charity of the people, although be had
wealth relatives-in New Jersy. `He could
not be induced to remain with them.—
Finally his condition became worse and
worse, he was placed in the county poor
house in 1848, being one of the first in
mates. He occupies the small room to
day that he did then. He is now over fifty
years old, and as simple-minded and in
nocent as a child of three. A few days
since a great change came over his for
tunes. An uncle of his, very wealthy,
died is Washington county,-N. J. Let
ters have been received by the authorit-,
ies of the almshouse making inquiry as to
whether there was such a personas Sant ,
uel Miller iu their charge. His infirmi
ties were described. There is no doubt
of his identity.
The bulk of the deceased uncle's fortune
amounting to several hundred thousand
dollars; is left to Samuel. He is unable,
however, to form any. idea:of the great
Change. He will not leave the poorhouse
although far beyond the need of its care.
As tne county has supported him for
thirty years, it may be that the matter
will be so arranged that out of the inher
itancei it will be reimbursed, and . that the
now wealthy imbecile be paid until he
dies, when the residue will revert to the
other heirs.
Its. Already the Postal Cards are be
ing used by unscrupulous persons for the
purpose of gratifying malicious and dis
graceful impulses. Such an abuse of an
excellent convenience was to have been
expected. There are always in a commu
nity some persona who will avail them
selves of any opportunity to wreak their
spite upon others, so long as there are no
disagreeable consequences in prospect for
themselves. The postal cards do offer a
tempting chance to such people to send
insulting, scurrilous, and indecent messa
ges. But the abuse is easy of remedy, and
the postal authorities have availed them
selves of the means lying ready to their
hand. A notice has been promulgated
stating that no card containing a. scurri
lous or obscene communication will be
transmitted through the mails, but at once
destroyed in the mailing office. When
once it comes to be distinctly understood
that there is no chance of such communi
cations reaching their destination, people
will discontinue sending them, and devote
their cards to . niore legitimate uses. Mean
time the new institution has conferred
great advantages upon .the business com
munity, and will be more and more high
ly appreciated as its 'objects come to be
more generally recognized.—Ez.

PAYING UP.—A few of many patrons

credit for a five dollar greenback which
failed to reach us.
THE Cosa.—Some of the farmers in
our neighborhood have had to refurrow
and plant their corn fields. It seems they
were too hasty in seeding the ground and
it rotted in consequence. It is said too
that the grub-worm is playing havoc with
the later planting which presented a prom

Should the crop prove a failure the com

therels nearly an average crop of old yet

The test is so simple that it is in the pow

who have not heard it. You will benefit
the people by repeating it often,
The test is as -follows; Pour a small
quantity of oil out upon a aauoer or tin
plate ; apply a lighted match ; if it ignites
immediately or even before the fire touches
it, let the oil be returned to the vender as
unsafe,
Good safe oil will not gash, hut burp
slowly when the lighted match is dropped
into it, and the fire is extinguished as soon
as the match is removed. If the people
will subject their oil to this test and use
only that which stand it, accidents will
be rare.

continue to report that the spring has been
most favorable for the putting in of wheat
and that a greatly increased breadth has

a very heavy one. The plants are remark
ably thrifty, and the principal danger
seems to be that they will grow too rank,
so that much will 'flodge" and be injured
or destroyed by wet weather about har-,
vest time. It is altogether certain now
that the, export• demand for American
reheat will be,very heavy daring the corn
ing year. Farmers, therefore, peed enter
tain no apprehension of a dull .market.—
Their wheat will be wanted at good prices.
The chief trouble will arise from insuffi
