I wns born nnd brought tip in tlio neighbor hood of the stilt works of M . My father- wns second engineer, find I filled the situation of nssislant. The scene of our mining operation,, nt the lime of tlio event which I am going to narrnte, was in a narrow valley, lying closo to the foot of a porpendictilarcliff of rock about one hundred feet high. On its bare sides neither grass nor shrub was to be seen, and scarce any inequality was viscblc, whereon the foot of the climber might find a resting place. In fact, it wns considered unscalcable for a distance of two miles when it sunk down gradually at either end to the level of the plain. Ascending the cliff, ono beheld on the summit a wido plain, stretching off in tho distance from the sharp edge of the precipice, ana trom that auiy point could look down upon the works of the miners below, close under its sides. Upon tho top of the cliff which I have been describing, I was strolling listlcssy, late one Sunday altcrnoon, thinking oi a strange ana sad circumstance which had happened about a year ago in our family. My only brothor, a lad of fifteen, had gone out early on a summer morning to shoot plover on the heights, and from that hour had never been heard of. When Inst seen, he was mounting the cliff from the eastern side, and though (when alarmed at his long delay) wo mado immediate search and inquiry, we novcr eained further information. lo speak of our family distress and my own heart grieving for my well-beloved young brother, is not now my imrnosc: but it wns the only subject of my thoughts on that quiet summer evening, when all tho noise from the works was hushed, ana tne stillness seemed tenfold by contrast. I approached very near the edge of the cliff. I was now at its steepest part, and looking down its smooth sides, I thought how terrible the fall would be; but my brother could not have fallen down. In that case Ins mangled body, at least would have been found. I was recalled to myself by a strange sinking of my feet. My first confused idea was that the soil had given way from tlio edgo ot the cliff, unon whoso utmost verge I stood, and that I was about lo be precipitated to the bottom. 1 became dizzy with horror, for I felt, at once that I could not recover myself, so sudden wns the caving in of tho earth beneath me. I made ono stumble forward, felt a ringing and crushing in my cars, and then I lost all further sensation. It must have been many hours before I was sullicicntly conscious to know that I still ex isted. Sick and bruised, I was long unable, to raise myself from the prostrate position in which I beenmo aware at last, that I was lying. It was ouite dark, and eve. y portion of earth or stone that I touched was wet, aud a smell of dump s.i'.t pervaded tho close atmosphere. I thought I had fallen into an exhausted salt mine, but soon remembered that I had been standing on tho edgo of the cliff. It was an impossibili ty. Then came the idea that 1 must have lallcn to the bottom and the loose earth and stones had fallen over me. That, too, I soon found equally unlikely, and, after groping about some time on my hands and knees, (every movement ono of intense tigony) I became sure that my prison was a cave of somo extent. Too weak to move further, I lay down and endeavored to think of my position. It seemed a hopeless one. 1 was certainly iu ono of thoso caves formed in the salt rocks, and sometimes found by miners, running far below the earth's surface. I had no idea how fur I had fallen; it might bo but a few fool; it might be many hundred. As yet I could find no trace of the passage through which I had dropped, but I remembered that 1 had a case of matches in my pocket, and it was not long be fore I succeeded in dragging them out, though it was excruciating pain to my bruised limbs to movo them. Having no taper, l determined lo be very careful of (lie matches, and to improve the short moment nf light, during which one would last, I rubbed it very carefully against the sole of my boot, then hurdor, then furiously but it would not ignite l iney were too damp every tlii ii wns damp; the matches were useless. Willi a faint hope of drying them in time, I put the box into my breast, and buttoned my vctt over it. W hat with my failure in procuring a light, and the pain of my bruises, added to my terror and bewilderment of mind, I suffered intensely. Through all, it became clear to me l lint instead of fulling over, I had fallen through the eli ti strange as it was that hollow ground should occur so near the edge without the exter nal wall of the cliff caving in towards it. The spaco through which I had fallen must have been narrow, lor my body was bruised ana the skin torn from my sides, with strips ot my clothing that I could feel. Oh! for a light to examine better into my nnsorablo position; but, after all, I did not feel without hope. I could not loose tho idea that I was to hit upon some means or way of escape, if I only could get the matches to ignite, and show mo the size and form of the cave. Worn out with pain and thought, I must have slept. 1 awoko with a raging thirst, and, al most at the same time, I became sure Hint. I heard tho dropping of water. I dragged myself towards tho soutid, strotched out my hand, and drops irotn above tell upon it; eagerly I swallow ed a few which burned my throat; they were do- titled brine salt as any impregnation of water could possibly bcl This disappointment crushed mo terribly should die of thirst ero I found a mode of exit, 1 thought of the matches, and tried them again in vain; tins tune, however, they gave loilh light smoke. In tinio the heat of my breast would dry them that was a hope. I had idea of time, Bave thnt my watch had run down while I slept. I wound it up again, knowing that when it agum stopped eiglit-and-twenty hours would have gone by. Again, on try hands and knees, I orept around, feeling by the damp walls, and as 1 continually approached and re-ceeded from the spot whore the salt water dropped from from a projecting rock, I discovered that tho oavo must be nearly round, and not many yards square. Having discovered this, I became more collected and resolute, nnd forced myself to a calm roview of my position. I had to acknowledge to myself, that my only chance of escape seouicd the hole or crack through which I had fallen, but no ray of light betrayed that spot earth and stones must have fallen in and clioked it up. Torching with thirst, and faint from bodjly injuries, I was almost at the point of despair, when a distant sound fell upon my ear. I listened with intense -attention. Soon, more and more distinctly, I recognized ths noise of machinery, the rumbling of carts, and the voice of men; then a bell rung, and, witn a throb of joy, I recognized it as the morning summons to the laborers in the works. A night only could have passed since my leaving the outer world. Had they missed me? Alast there was nothing to lead them to suspect the pot of my captivity. I thought of the strange disappearance of my young brother this double bereavement would kill my poor mother; out still I was comforted by the knowledge that only a partition of rock separated me from my follow men. Hon I could almost distinguish their voices. I felt thnt it was vain to hope that my calls and shouts could be heard by them, yet I could not forbear shouting till I was quito exhausted. Then I reflected upon the means I could find of digging awny the barrier of rock. It could not be thick 1 knew that by my facility in hearing sound, and concluded that, as 1 had fallen close to the edgo of tho cliff, I had sunk straight down to tho level of the valley nt its foot, and possibly tho wall of my prison was not more (linn two or three feet in thickness. lHit l had no implimcnts, save my knife, and that wns a slender one, quite inadequate to cutting a pas- snge through oven the solt. and damp salt-rocK which formed the partition, feuddenly i re membered having picked up a heavy iron ox shoe, on the wagon road, during my Sunday walk. It was still in my pocket. With what joy I pulled it out, and commenced eagerly my work. I will not detail the agonies of those days and nights, when I worked on in the darkness, sometimes encouraged, sometimes nearly hopeless. I could not find that I made any visible progress; the sounds were nearer than nt first, and 1 was growing hourly more exhausted from fatigue and burning thirst. The salt air of the cave in-flnmed my eyes, parched my skin, and excoriated my throat, and often I had a horrible idea that l should go mad: but I worked on. I had wound up my watch five times, therefore it must have been the sixth day deliverance as far off as ever. I had been trying lo loosen a fragment of rock which seemed somewhat detached from the strata, (this I could only judge of by feeling.) If I succeeded. I should much reduce tho thick ness of tho barrier at that point, but I had .to slop and rest before the finM trial. 1 again tnea my matches. I had constantly done so hitherto, hut without success, and few remained; but now tho third one that I tried gave forth a light smoke, than a blue flame, and finally a clear red light. I hold it carefully, and beheld the cavern in which I was immured. It was a small one, and sparkling from tho saline crystals, as if studded with gems. Opposite to mo was a dnrk object, on a projection of the shelving rock, and bearing a similarity to the outline of a human figure I lifted high the expiring match, and, by its last ray, I saw a human face. In a frenzy ot impatience i tnea tne tew remaining matches, in vain; tho last one was in mv hand: more carefully I drew it over the sand-paper; it burned only for nn instant; but in that instant, holding it directly even wim the body, I recognized the dead, pale, but un changed face of my poor, lost brother Henry. I was again in darkness, with t lie dead body and mv frenzied thoughts. After a time I re sumed fiercely my labor at the rock. A few blows loosened it; a few more and the large mass rolled inwards, and from a fissure in the rock which lay behind it, camo in a narrow streak of daylight. I was all but mad, or I would not have had sufficient strength to effect mv purpose. 15y Hie aid ot my ox-snoo, l soon increased tho hole, till it was large enough to admit my head. Mv shouts soon brought nssistnnce trom the works, to which, ns I had supposed, I was very near, nnd soon from that fearful tomb were drawn the living and the dead bodies. No one knew me till I spoke. The body of poor Henry had been preserved by the salt, and was also partly petrified. That he had been killed by the fall was evident, and had never moved from the ridge on which ho fell. I never entirely recovered from tho effect of the salt, which left my eveB and nose constantly red, and rendered my flesh ever after similnr to corned pork . The National Intelligencer a Conservative Ollice The editor of the Wheeling Intelligencer thus describes a visit to the printing office of the most gentlemanly newspaper in America : Washington. D. C.. Deo. 13th, 1350. A morn ine or two ogo I paid a visit to the old National Intelligencer establishment here, on the comer of D and 7th streets. I do not recollect whether in any of my former letters from here ever made mention of this vcneraoie concern. If I did not. I ought to have done so, for it was a filial duty, inasmuch as your own Intelligencer was named expressly in nonor oi its illustrious natrnnvme here. And, besides that, 1 owe it a sort of individual duty, for, as near as I can come at such a distant period, I believe the old r . tf- Aa .F mv .111,11111 li no- plntha Intelligencer was one of my swaddling ciotns. Certainly, it is associated with my earliest no linns of tvnes. As you turn up to the building irom tne Ave nue, you would suppose that you were coming to an old mill, or a flouring, grain or provision establishment, of some sort. The roof is like a mill. It has dormitories in it, and is moss cov ered. The walls and the window sashes and nanea have that whitish, webby appearance pe culiar to amill building. This old building was put up in 1K18 by its present owners and occu-nnnts. Gales & Seaton, tho editors and proprie tors of the Intelligencer. At the time it was put up, it was considered a formidable newspaper hii'iltlinn for at that time there were very fow houses of any kind in Washington, and still fewer that could approach to any style now known no imnosinir. You enter this building through a rusty old door, with a little box recess about big enough lor a coupie oi peupiu io pa encu other, and from thence through a still rustier r nor. von Pass 11110 tne counting room, a unity, antinquo, orderly and highly conservative look ing place. There IS an enure uueeucs uiuuy-iliino- like modernism here. No gas fixtures, but simply plain old brass candlesticks. No upright coal stove, such as they have every plaee else in the city, but simply a little, delicate, snindlo-leeired wood Stove, the first ever cast, prbabTy"and sent in, I presume, for editorial notice. The chairs and tne oiu, wooa ooiorea, ink stained desks, and tlio shelving, together with the rusty, faded ana crumbling looking old ledgors, and day books, hoighten the antiquo oppearance, and give the lout entemble a very ancient nhase. indeed. Ilehind one of theso desks, at the receipt of custom, stands a liltlo old gentleman, sallow shrivelled and grey naireu, yet, active anu Bpry n . imv. He looks as if he might be an own . a. -.!.! nlil mail rti-i T I euAlji wlirt livaa up in Urooke county. He is one of the politest men l ever met, mm mo uwmu id muuian wis-ehoo. He hns been at the post I found him for nrecisolv fifty years, and is now as well known to visitors to the establishment, almost, as Gales & Scuton themselves. He does the agreeablo to visitors having subscription or advertising bus iness with the office, or to those who, like me. were on a visit of curiosity, and who oame to see and talk with the visitors. Mr. D. informs me that he has not been up nt the Capitol but onco in forty yoars, and that was during the Mavne and Webster debate. He gave me a most vivid sketch of the scene on thai occasion. To show, ns he said, how absorbing' was the alien tion which thai gigantio contest olicitcd, he told me that his side, which was pressed against tlio iron railing of tl.o gallery by the dense mass of peoplo, trying to get a view of the champions of the debate, that it was bruised and sore and black over a space twice as large as his hand, for weeks altnrwnrds. And yet all tlio while of the debate he was perfectly unconsoious of the injury that was boing done to hirr, o ex cited was he and every one else around U n on that great occasion. How to Think. . . The late Mr. Bayle St. John, in his excellent biography of Montaigne, thus describes the essayist's manner of "bagging'' a thought: Montaigne made It, as it were, a business to think at his castle, lie was ever on the lookout for ideas and images. A thought would suddenly strike him in the family part of hit house, and he would often, not having his tablets at hand, hurry across the court and olimb. his tower, in order co set it down. Experience howover, had taught him that the thought might bo lost on the way, whinked out of sight, by some sudden gust of sensation; so he used to take care before setting out to tell it to his wife, his daughter, or anybody else who might happen to be at hand. Imagine a gasping servant-girl of l'origord boing entrusted ivith such valuable deposits! What an amusing revelation is there in all this of Montaigne in his literary character Montaigne the maker of. books. His Essays were never outof bis mind He seems ever ti have been employed in meditating and carefully inscribing his thoughts in his brain, so that his manner of speaking to others was constrained, dry and brief. He hastened back, ns it were, to his own thoughts, for fear he should lose sight of them. Of another of Montaigne's processesof thought,' the biographer says: See how surely Montalgno proceeds when he undertakes lo develop some moral ideal ! He knows who have said the best thirgs on the subject. He turns lo their pages, reads them Over and over again, and perfectly certain that bis mind is not enslaved by theirs, makes use of their knowledge ss they had made use of the knowledge of their predecessors, gives, perhaps, a touch here, and adds a tint there, and sometimes, having done no more than this, appeals to the judgment of the judicious whether lie has not worked well; and cares nothing for the minute critio who follows him with a cry of "Stop thiof!" 1859-60. PROSPECTUS OF TIIE OHIO STATE JOURNAL. 0k tho seventeenth day of the present month the Ohio Stats Joubxai will euter upon It.
