APRIL 14 18 7 R~ - OCAPT. ROBSONS DISCOVERY. He Finds a New Island In the Atlantio and on the Island Some Curi- ous Remains, New Orleavs Picayune, Yesterday the British steamship Jesmond, Capt. Robson, arrived at this port from Mossina with a cargo of fruit. Ho says that when about two-hundred miles tothe westward of Madeira his attention was called to the singular appearance of the sea. The water had a dark, muddy look, and was covered with dead fish as far as the eye could reach. They were of several species, among them being noticed mullet, cod, and bass. Soon after entering this field of dead fish he observed a faint smoke on the ho. rizon nearly ahead, on the course of the vessel. Early next morning the captain was awakened by the second ofticer and informed that land had been sighted in the course of the steamer. Ho was greatly surprised at this information, knowing that there was no land in this part of the Atlantic. Upon going on deek, how- ever, he found that the report was correct, The dim outlines of an is. land, broken by mountain peaks, were visible even without the use of the glass. Above it hung a cloud of smoke. The water was more turbid than on the previous day, and the shoal of dead fish thicker, Capt. Robson deemed it advisable to take soundings, not expecting, however, to get bottom, as thecharts show a depth of from 2,000 to 3,000 fathoms in that portion of the Atlantic. For some time the sounding was without result, but suddenly the line brought bot. tom at fifty fathoms, When about fourleagues distant from the island the Jesmoni came to anchor in seven fathoms of water. The island was lo- cated 28 degrees 40 minutes west, 25 degrees north. Capt. Robson de- termined to make an examination of the strange land, and the yawl was lowered and the captain and one of his officers were rowed to the island. A landing was effected on the low coast of the western border, where a convenient harhor was found for the yawl. The captan and several of the crew, with some difficulty, ascended the declivity. The promontory seemed several miles in length, and joined an exten- sive tableau, which sloped greatly back to a chain of mountains at a great distance off, from which rose Light columns of smoke. The surface of the ground was covered with pumi- co-stone and volcanic debris, and en- tirely destitute of vegetation. It was a desolate scene, where not a single living thing was to be perceived. The captain and his companions started on a tour inland, but soonfoundtheir progress impeded by yawning chasms, It was therefore dotermined to re- turn to the beach and inspect the is- land from that side. While examin- ing the base of the cliff where the rock was fractured and twisted as if by some tremendous convulsion, and disclosed a bed of breccia, & surpris- ing discovery was made by one of the sailors, On thrusting the prong of a boat-hook into the loosened mass of gravel, he dislodged a stone arrow- head. Excited by this incident the search was continued, and other arti- cles of stone were discovered. A large excavation was made, and it was as- certained that the opening led be- tween the crumbling remhins of what must have been massive walls, A number of articles wore exhumed, such as bronze swords, rings, ham- mers, carvings of heads and figures of birds and animals, and two vases or jars with fragments of bone, and one crantum almost entire. The most singular thing brought to view was what appeared to be a mummy, con- tained in astone case. It was 8o in- crusted with voleanic deposits as to be scarcely distinguished from the rock itself. Much difticuliy wasex- perienced in dislodging the sarcopha- gus, which was finally taken out whole and, with the fossils, tranaport- ed to the steamer. ~Capt. Robson would have contin- ued this investigation, but as the as- pect of the weather became less favor- able, and he could not afford to spend more time at the island, he sailed for this port. He considers that the new island was raised from the sea by vol- canic action, and that the flsh were killed by the poisonous gases from the volcano. The captain thinks that the new land is a section of the im- mense ridge known to exist in the At- lantic, and of which the Azores and Canaries are a part. Hetook pleasure in exhibiting the fossils and curious articles of which ho was the fortunate finder. The carved heads are in the Egyptian style of sculpturing, being distinguished by the veil or hood which characterizes Egyptian figures The urns andwases are spherical with large mouths, and upon them may be discerned fuscriptions in hieroglyphice.

It seems hard that surgeons should run the awful risk of losing jewelry and instruments by sewing them up in the vitals of their pationts. It is due to them to say, however, that the rule is to carefully count the sponges and instruments during the progress of such operations. This is well. Tt would be a dreadful matter, sor instance, if a man should have a couple of chairs or a house and lot grated into him whle he was being treated for a gunshot wound. Selma (Ala ) Times, March 23, Yesterday morning & negro woman in East Selma laid a very young child on a small pallet placed in the sun, where the wind would not striko it, and went to another part of the yard to commence her week's washing. Returning in a short while great was hor distress and agony to find the child gone. A diligent search, as she thought, about the premises resulted vainly, and the mother was on the point of distraction when a faint cry was heard from the large dog-house that stood by, a peep into which dis- closed the baby stretohed on the dog’s bed all right with the exception of a fow scratchescaused by being dragged over the ground, while the mischiov- ous author of the excitement, an over-grown bull pup, looked calmly on wagging his tail in an unconcerned way. ——— Something Lacking. Wall Strect News. A well-known Illinois farmer was in Chicago on business the other day, when an acquaintance took occasion to ask: “Well, Farmer Jonen, is the wheat all right this !prin};’" ‘Y-e-8, purty fair,” was the grude- ing mplg. *‘Good show for fruit?”’ “Wall, T guess so.” {“Sell all your potatoes at a big pricet” “Purty big, many."” “fiad any too much rain in your section?” | “‘Guess not.” ‘‘Well, then, I don’t see as you have anything to complainof. I think you ought to feel like a young colt.” “‘Wall, I suppose things do look a little bright—just a little—but I don’t see any occasion for shouting. Fact is, twenty-one of my ewes had single lambs when they might as well have had twing, and I don't look for much of a price on wool this summer.” —_— Osage Orange Hedget. but I didn't have Hedges are the best protection against depredations of cattle and pilferers, but it often tries the pa- tienco of the farmer before he can get a hedge in good condition, The strongest prejudice against the osage orange is on account of the difficulty of causing the seeds to grow, and many failures and discouragements arise from this source, The cost of buying plants for a large hedge amounts to quite a sum. To cause them to sprout put the seeds mn a large tub and pour warm water over them, and cover the tub over with a blanket or two in order to retain the heat as long as possible, The water should be about as warm as the hand can bear. Put tho seed to soak in the evening and let it remaln in the water until the next morning, when the treatment should be repeated. The water should be changed morn- ing and evening until the hull of the seed is well softened (about four or five days), when the water should be drained off and the seed kept covered until signs of sprouting appear. As soon as the seed sprouts sprinkle thoroughly with gypsum (plaster), and sow in drills two inches deep. When of sufficient height set the plants out about six inches apart, if a very close hedge is wanted, but a foot apart is better. Bend the growing branches and weave and interlace them, com- mencing close to the grouud. = Keep the hedge cut back for two or three seasons, in order to thicken it, and trim well every year. The roots are great spreaders, often running out and sending “shoots in places where they are not desired. This can be prevented by ploughing deeply on both eides of the hedge, in the fall and spring, and hoeing out the shoots when they appear out of place, ——— The Future of Interess. President Jacob L.
