A rumbling sound in the pass caused

answer of the Lieutenant was, "close at

around as if with the expectation of seeing
thetas, just behind him. But there were none
there. save the Sergeant, and the truth ini

Mr.. Sevier called' up "li l it; bill appropria

Mr. Miller stated that the . object of the

Mr. Sevier opposed the motion and Mr.

the Senators on the other hand had n right

Post OFFICE ItuLes.,-'Under date of the
29th ult., W. J. Brown, -Second Assistant
Postmaster General says:
" Now, as before the passage of the Post
Office law of ‘845, publishers of newspa
pers may transitnit their biHs for subscrip
tions due, free ;of postage, according to the
provisions of Sec. 156 of the-Post Office reg

SINGULAR INEIVOMENON.-A letter to the
Cobourg (U. ('.) Star, which that paper says
is from n reliable source, states that at Graf:
ton Harbor, one the North shore of Lake
Ontario, on the Bth nit., while the Lake was
r..11m, the wirulfrom the North, suddenly the
water receded in one immense wave 350 feet,
leaving the beneh dry for that 'distance ; it
then .returned four feet higher than usual.
This was repeated eight or nine times, de
crensing in violence till it finally subsided.
A similar occurrence, the Stile' states, took
place in Cobutii.g harbor in 1845; it suppo
ses both to be tie result of volcanic action.
