Dean, Esq, who recently returned from Honey Lake Valley, thai Honey Lake has literally dried up. Sussan river, a respectable stream and as full as usual at this season of the year, fails now to reach the .basin of the lake sinking into the earth far above it. Immense quantities of fish have been destroyed by th.r event, and now lie decaying on the deserted bed. It is remarkable that a lake, twenty miles wide and and forty miles long, should disappear so suddenly.
