iTim ti Tinmnjtr A Wonderful Phenomenon. A singular pl"",om'eno!1 was brought to -k -po yesterday, in ihe townsnip of Green ehhi miles from this cny. The facts are very "ear,y . :ls follows :---The Mea ftranzers, m boring to find water to sup i ihpir steam saw mill, sunk a four inch hole lo the depdi of 70 feet, when they struck a vein ir caWiv. As 'hey withdrew the auger from the hole, i l"e'r greal surprise, ii was fol Jrtvved by a violent current of. air that, throw tip siones as large as hen eggs, ten or fifteen fee hioh. For a few moments, when the hole was first opened, the air was accompanied by a stream of water, which was throwiij ten yr twelve feet high. 1 he water, however soon ceased coming, and the air gushed out with iirh force that the roar could he distinctly heard ml 4 fifty or sixty rods distant. On touching fire to ihe atr it caught, ami the flame Hashed temy feet hih. and came near burning the budding. rnreriii" ihe machinerv in which ii is located They finally succeeded, with considerable, dif ficulty, in sloping it, by forcing down blankets. and driving a spile lino ihe hole, which wa their only means of stopping the air or gas, and extinguished the flames. For several mometits after the hole was stopped, the eanh trembled and shook for some distance around, as though an eruption was about to take place. The people, who, by this time had gathered to the number of ahout a hundred, .were greaily alarmed at these symptoms, and scaitered with all possible rapidity, supposing that Milleristn was about coming to a focus, or that they were about to be blown tip sky high by an earih quake. From the tune it was opened till U was thus closed, was about six hours, and ihe mr oushed out all of the time with unabated furce. " It has been opened several limes since with ihe same effect. The power and force of the ir does not appear to diminish in the least. The Messrs. Grangers are proposing to secure it wnh apparatus so as to shut it off and let it out at leisure, and test its real qualities. The people in thai vicinity are all confident now, ihai n can be conveyed herein pipes, and suc cessfully used in lighting the city with gas, from tins greal natural underground Gasometer. We learn that scientific gentlemen of this city intend visiting it soon. Detroit Advertiser. Indigestion, Weak Nerves. Lowness1 of Spirits, &c.

WORMS CANNOT EXIST IN THE S YS TEM, if a liberal use be made of the Click ener Sugar-coated Vegetable Purgative Pills. ; They not only destroy the worms, but thoroughly cleanse ihe stomach and bowels, of the mucus or slimy substance which supports them. Their .peratiori is so gentle, that they may be adminis tered to children of the most tender age without producing those injurious effects upon the gener al health, which have always constituted the most serious objection to Vermifuges. Their metallic base is generally so violent in its operation, that the system seldom recovers -from the shock until the patient has arrived at years of maturity or ac tually outgrown it. We know several at this mo ment whose constitutional vigor has been so com pletely paralyzed by the injudicious administra tion of metallic Vermifuges while young, that they are almost totally unfitted for the transaction of ordinary buisineess. The Clickener Sugar-coated Vegetable Pills, on the contrary, have never been known to leave any injurious effects behind them. They rather serve to invigorate the sys tem, and render it proof against the most inveter ate ailments. For sale at the Republican Office, by T Schoch, uie only authorized agent for Stroudsburg.
