A SINKING HILL.
A Curlon* t'hcntmienou on th# Tattle r»rm in llloointlcld. Conn. Jeremiah Tu'We, a farmer of IlUwmfield, has a hill on his bia- farm in that town that is sinking into the Wnvel.s of the earth, says a Hartford (Conn.) correspondent 'f the New York Sun. Mr. Tuttle hu.s a lieautifnl farm, most of which is in a normal condition. There are prem fertile meadows, wide reaches of noble forest, and hero and there spacious pastures in which his lil vxled cows ct:i?M on herbage that is almost kuee-deep. The queer sinking hill is In one of the bit* pastures, in what Mr. Tuttle calls the "rock pasture." The grass is liner in that one than in any other pasture in the whole rvirion. Exactly in the center .if the bi lot a hill, cajvunous of L-'.rth, but not more than twelve feet h'urh. The oldest inhabitant if Jlloomfield. who is upwanl of eisrhtv-tivc year-, old afflrnis that the hill is as familiar to him as any room in his own
h-::iv-.
f.ir many lllonraSeul
people have Ivjen in the habit of tnkinsf a "'short cut" home across Jerry's rook pasture. and that he never noted any-thiiHr-ouM a,»«t the hill until'lately... Nov.-. since the hill sssaid t« be sinking.'1 I!!' id.'M avoid the rock pastun.-. for they believe it is enchanted.
A i-ivr weeks a^-o TuttU sect his hired man. Michael Klann Sffaa. \vho has wcrke.'. i':i the Tuttle farm for years, to the r.vk.pasture with the cows, and •ia half an hour Michael 'came home hur-. rieo'v a startled Sooii in his face "•Vf a hv cert-l *ho pewtan?. he said later. :hc stoppea amazement, for he sa* a*, a slaace.tnat. the hill had cone ckiwn :r.to :r.e earta several inches since nis ri:: to the lc-t a day or two before. To be sure that his opinion of the hiii sis a o5rreet one he went close to it and took an e^tL-nate of its height, "Siirhtin? across its top" at old-time and I trustworthy landmarks, and was satistied that it had jfone down not less than eight or ten inches. After he had told his story, everyone, Mr. Tuttle. too, truyed him mercilessly. But Michael doesn't drink, so took the gibing g-ood naturedly, and persisted in affirminc that this statement was correct.
His earnestness finally impressed others, and Mr. Tuttle and some of the neighbors visited the rock pasture with Fianni^an, whose declaration at once was seen to be true. The hill had sunk several inches since Michael's previous visit. Moreover, the hill is still sinkinn daily. Slowly and persistently it is being swallowed up. It is now only a slight undulation in the lot, and its top but a foot or two above the rest of the land there. What is the cause of the phenomenon no one attempts to explain. but the Jiloomrield people are ceitain that very soon the hill will have entirely disappeared.
BENEATH SAND OR WAVE. •a... ~u id ~w Covered Cities street* Wer© Oaee
Full of Life and Action.
The city under the sea which has been discovered between Grado and Palo, In Istria, is believed to be the ruins of Citsa, mentioned by Pliny as sjtuated otyu^sland o| that name. A diver reports having seen the streets, walls and quays, but the_J'jjr and wiiidows of the lionSes appear to be choked wjth silt and seaweed. While on this subject, savs Cassell's Family Magazine, we may mention that the remarkable ruins of Zimbabye, which have been discovered in Mashonaland, are to be explored by Theodore Bent, with the aid of the Royal Geographical society..
Great progress has been made in uneartliing the Romano-British town of Silchester. near Heading'. The site cov. ers a hundred acres, and is situated on the .Strathfieldsayc estate of the duke of Wellington. Walls, gates, streets, bath.s and private houses have been laid bare, and a rich collection of pottery, Implements and coins has been made. Amort these are an iron carpenter's plane and blacksmith's tools. Some of the edge tools are still keen enough to work with. Apiece of tile retains the imprint of a baby's foot, and another that of a shoe or sandal with springs in the sole. The pottery ranges from coarse cooking vessels to artistic ware: the iron workshowsornamentation and the needles or other household articles *bear witness to a fairly high degree of civilization among the Ibcro-Celtic population, who, to the best of our knowledge, made up the ancient Britons. It is a mistake to speak of these, our early forefathers, as Celts. They were probably more Iberian than Celtic, at least in England proper.
A Metallic Diet*
The London Lancet has just recorded a remarkable case. The body of an Aral. who was a stowaway on a ship which had just arrived, was found in the hold and was conveyed to the Seamen's hospital at Greenwich, where a post mortem was made. The physicians noticed that the body was greatly emaciated, and on opening it there were found in the alimentary canal twenty trouser buttons, three cog wheels, apparently portions of a watch, a twoinch steel screw which was bent double, a one-inch screw, six pieces of a lock, the largest lialf an inch long and half an inch broad, a circular piece of brass, several pieces of iron wire, some bits of brass and lead, and two key tallies on a ring an inch long. The man had eaten these things when starving.
Money In the Mails.
Scattered on the floor of a postal car on the New York & Pittsburgh railroad, in which were tons of mail matter, the clerks found, a week or two ago, three hundred and ten dollars In gold pieces of various denominations. Portions of the wrapper were found, but not enough to identify the address or 6erve as a clew to the sender. The one who mailed the package doubtless thought he could save the cost of registering or else he did not know how to put up a package. There is no way of identifying lost coin, and the person in this instance, who (.hipped his gold in a flimsy wrapper, will probably never be able to prove his claim to the money now held by Uncle Sam. The post office officials say that it is a common practice for people to mail money of large and small amounts in common envelopes and light wrappers.
