'Extraordinary Narrative- JlZMABXABLE DISCOVERIES IN SIBERIA. i THE STORY TOLD BY AN ESCAPED RUSSIAN CONVICT. The New York World publishes what pur ports to be a letter from Mo scow, June 6th, giving an account of the adventures of a Bus hian named Cheriton Batchmatchnick, who, sentenced to hard labor for life in the mines of Nestchiusk, Siberia, made his escape alter four years, and, in the course ot his subse quent wanderings, made some wonderful dis coveries, on account of which, and the hard ships he has undergone, he has received a pardon from his government. Having reached the summit of the Aldan range of mountains, right at his feet he be held a parallelogram of valley, fifty miles wide, one hundred and fifty long, and with a blue, quiet lake in the centre. To descend into this valley would be to get into a cul-de- sac; but Cheriton looked at the bleak, snowy region behind him, and then down into the pleasant valley before him—green, placid, quiet, cheerful—and heiltated no longer. He couid see no sign of habitation anywhere, but animals were browsing on the meadows by the lake, what sort be could not detect at this distance. He descended to the pass, put a new string to his bow, loaded his pistol afresh, tightened his belt, and began to go down tne mountain toward the valley. As he descended, the snow grew less deep, and he camped that night ou a bank of fra grant mosses, such as the reindeer loves, that was entirely free from snow. The next day, having his sled, he continued to de scend the mountain side, which sloped regu larly downward, without being materially broken by spurs. As be descended, it was quite evident that the valley was of great depth, and far below the level of the steppes ou the other side of the range. Indeed, if his observations are at ail to oe relied upon, the lowest part of this oingular land-locked valley must not be above the level of the sea. it, a* he supposes, it be not several hundred feet below it, like the valley of the Dead Sea. Cheiiton soon cauie in his downward course to a vast lorest of firs, larches, pines, spruces and ash, through which progress was difficult, and at times almost impossible. Several species of deer, some of which he knew, and others which he had never seen before, ranged this forest in great numbers, feeding upon a crisp, green herbage with au aromatic odor. Foxes and lynxes were fre quently met, with bears, and a sort of planti grade resembling the American wolverine or glutton. There were no wolves, but the Al pine foxes, black here as jet, and with beauti ful glossy fur, hunted the deer in packs, with a cry resembling that of the jackal. These animals were so tame and tearless, yet so little inclined to molest him, that he came at once to the conclusion Unit they were unacquainted with man, and conse quently that the valley was not inhabited. The next day’s journey brought Cheriton through the coniferous lorest and to a wood of primeval deciduous trees, much larger than any he supposed Siberia to be capable of pro ducing. Tnis forest was open, without un dergrowth, and was turfed with succulent herbs and grasses, except where the rocks, which were of a limestone formation, cropped boldly out in enormous masses. Among these rocks were many caves, and from some of these beautiful nvslets trickled out and ran down toward the bottom of the valley. Cheri ton a* nightfall selected one of these caves for a lodging place, and built a fire *t the entrance—which was no sooner done than a bear ran bowling out and escaped among the rocks. This made our adventurer ktep up his fire and also to explore the cavern before sleeping, lie made him self torches and went into the place, and finding nothing, however, save some great bats and the bones and teeth of some great animal. The next day Cheriton pro ceeded onward, passing below the region of the forest and coming out upon a broad ter race covered with the greenest grass. This terrace, which sloped gradually toward the centre of the valley, was about eight miles in width, and seemed to bind the foot of the mountains all around, as far as Cheriton conld see. He found it warm enough there to make his coat of sable very uncomfortable. The terrace, which struck Cheriton os affording the finest natural pasture he had ever seen, was unbroken on its surface by any trees, and perfectly smooth but for an occasional boulder of basalt, that stood up black and frowning. The plain was lull ot animals feeding, like domestic herds at pasture. At the lower margin ol this terrace Cheriton came to a steep slope that descended 1,500 feet at a sharp angle, but not so steep as to be bare of the prevalent grasses. At the foot of this slope was the valley proper, and the lake in the middle of it. He immediately went down, and, just at nightfall, forcing his way through a fringe of willows, he stood on the brink of this luke of dark blue, transparent water, scarcely rufiled by the faint breath of an even ing breeze. Thoroughly tired out, Cheriton built himself a large fire, cooked and ate a hare, made himself the remains found cn the shores of the Arc tic Ocean as fossil animals, or as the rem nants of wandering herds caught and perish- iog in the storms, individuals of which may still exist under favorable circumstances. Without intending it, I have solved that doubt,” Cheriton describes the mammoth as being a very imposing looking animal, covered with reddish-brown wool and long black hair. Daring his stay in the valley he was close to five of them, all of which were nearly of a size, being about twelve feet high, eighteen feet long, with tusks projecting about four feet, and being eight to ten feet long, oount- ing the curve. The skin, which was bare on the upper surface of the cars, on the knees and rump, was of a mouse color, and seemed very thick. The animal was nocturnal in his habits, frequenting caves and forest depths by dAy, and feeding ut night and early morning. Cheriton thinks there might be some fifteen or twenty of these monsters in the valley altogether, but that all these are aged, aDd that very few are born nowadays. At any rate, he saw none that had the least appear ance of being young. They were very peace able animals, torpid and sluggish as old oxen, never disturbing Cheriton, nor indeed taking much notice of him. Batchmatchnick found a mall cave which he could climb up by the face of a perpen dicular rock, and where he was comparatively free from the incursions of wild animals. In a recess of this cave he built his fire, which [ he never suffered to go out again daring the whole course of his stay in the valley, which continued all winter and until about April, as nearly as he could gue«s the time. In all his stay there, so sheltered was the valley and so permanent the warmth that setined to be nursed there by radiatioD, tbat the lake was never frozen over, nor was there any more than an inch or two of snow, and no frosts sufficiently bitter to destroy the succulence of the grass**. These were fed by repeated gentle rains, constant clews and frequent mists. The valley swarmed with animal life, while, as the winter progressed, the waters of the lake were literally covered with wild fowl. Birds of prey ted upon them in numbers, while the foxes, lynxes, gluttons ana wolver ine ■ preyed upon the herds of deer and smaller tiibes. Batchmatchnick explored the valley thor oughly during his stay there—a stay which was entirely enforced, from the fact that he could not, after repeated endeavors, make his way out of the valley through the ranges to the eastward, and to go back by the pass through which he had entered would have beeu lost labor and lost time. In the course of his explorations he encountered many an imals indigenous to the valley, which he thinks are not known to exist elsewhere ex cept in the shape of fossil remains. Among these was a species of horse, a wild and beau- tifu^creature, that went ia droves aud ran with lightning-like speed. These horses were small, pure white in color, with long black mane and tail; they were covered rather with fleece than hair, and in running looked as much like lambs as horses. The lake was full of fisu of many species, but was inhabited by a monster of which Cheri ton was in constant dread, a sort of sauso- phidian, which he described as being thirty feet long, and armed with scales and horrible fangs. The monster—lie never saw but the one—was master of the lake, and lived by devouring the animals which came by night to its biink to drink. Cheriton gives a graphic and exciting description of a contest which he witnessed one morning at early dawn between this crocodile serpent and one of the mastodons. The battle, which lasted more than an hour, ended in the discomfiture of the mammoth, which could hardly limp away after having been constricted in the serpent’s folds. Doubtless, in respect to these and similar discoveries, Cneritou’s book, when it appears, will be one of the most interesting narratives of adventure evtr published. A Mysterious Keg. AUGUSTA CARDS.

Wholesale Dealers in branches, drew his sable coat over Litn, and laid down with his feet to the fire, but not to sleep. Cheriton says he will never forget that first night of horrors by the haunted lake. He was beset with monsters. Dark shadowy forms came over the water, splashing toward him, and seemed to seek what his fire might mean. The tramping of great beasts that crushed the willow stalks like pipe stems on their way to the water’s edge, and then came and stood over him. breathing heavily and slow as they seemed to gaze at the fire with stupid wonder, made him at mid each mo ment of being overrun. Wild eyes, reflecting the fire-light, shone around him out of the gloom upon all sides, and wilder cries and howls gave new horrors to his position. He sprang to his feet nearly para- | lyzed with fright, and fired off his pistol at the nearest intruder. The echo of the shot rang loDg around him, and it seemed the sig nal lor the cries of a thousand new monsters to burst forth. There were mad, plunging rushes of frightened beasts around him that made the earth tremble; a peculiar, long, shrill, quavering shriek sounded over the lake, and was answered by a harsh, full, gut- teral bellow near at hand. Soon there were more of these deep, full-toned impressive bel- lowings, and Cheriton, flinging a burning brand in the direction of the sound, saw the dark shadow of some huge unknown, tower ing monster move slowly away. Immediately ho kindled a broad circle of fire about his resting place, and in this charmed ring sat watching all night long, until, morning ap proaching and the sound ceasing, he fell at last asleep. When Cheriton awoke it was broad day, and there were no traces of the animals that had disturbed him over night, except the paths they had worn going down to the water. In these paths he saw the deep-painted spoor of some animal larger than anything of the sort’he had ever before beheld. His first care was to seek some place to pass the next night, where he would be free from the alarm tbat had been made the past night so terrible. He recrossed the meadow’, and followed the edge of the slope around in the direction in which he saw some rocks. Among these he found the wide and lofty entrance to the cave. He entered with some precautions, for the rocky pavement was worn as if by nse, and within he heard a slow, measured movement, as of an animal gently ruminating, and heavily breathing with great, calm inspirations and expirations, like the sigh of a smith’s bellows. One turn, then another, be heard a heavy, startling snort, and there, in the half light of the cave, standing lull before him, alive, chewing the cud, aud waving its proboscis to and fro with a slow, geulie, majestic rnation, he saw a mammoth! ‘T did not know then.” said Cheriton, “what I have since been told, that Siberia was an old habitat of these ani mals, and tbat some of the best scientific judges are uncertain w hether to look upon An aged colored woman iu Richmond, Fla., has had a severe tussle with the devil, re cently.

Then the old woman began to look for the footprints of his satanic majesty, fcJlie knew that there had been some *‘C0Djurin” aud that the sulphu rous potentate was prowling nightly around her cabin. With the faith tbat would remove mountains she began to clean out the tilth that had been accumulating in her yard ever since the emancipation proclamation was read to her. By the time the premises were in a condition to satisfy the most exact ing board of health, her patient search and nightlong watch was rewarded by discover ing a “devil’s nail” with a “snake head” sticking up in the ground aud pointing to wards the house. She caught hold of it aud found it red hot. She dug it up and found that others were buried beneath it, and cross ed over each other m the shape of a star. Nothing now remained to secure her daugh ter’s convalescence but to break the charm according to the orthodox prescription of her couch of willow | b-doved ancestors.

DAVID McBRIDE, SUCCESSOR TO were going to their roost, a watchful police man saw tbat old woman go out upon a bridge over the switt running James anfipcast a mys terious keg into the current. With the un erring sagacity of his profession he knew thAt the damning evidence of a case of infanticide was inclosed in that keg. He swam out and recovered it and forthwith presented it and the old woman to the police judge. The keg was opened and the chop-fallen detective could discover nothing in it but the satanic nails reposing in an odorous pickle of fish- brine, red onion, copperas, cayenne pepper, etc. The sick daughter recovered, and the colored statesmen roundabout are deeply im pressed with the magic virtues of the old wo man's anti-satanic mixture. Settling Up.— A stirring little incident lately occurred at Goodrich’s landing, on the Mississippi. A man named Vaughn was in the employ of a Mr. Orer. Vaughn became ! dissatisfied and demanded a settlement at once. In computing accounts a difference ol ! opinion arose between the two men, and they had Lard words. Vaughn finally saying that I if a settlement was not made according to his j figures, blood would flow, went away. A day j lor two after, he lode up to Orer’s house early in the morning, and, calling his former em- j ployer out of bed, demanded his money. Orer got up and wrote an order lor the amount claimed. This did not satisfy Vaughn, who wanted cash or its equivalent in blood. Orer did not have the cash, but he had a shot-gun in the house, which he immediately proceeded to get. Vaughn asked that a time be fixed to fight it out according to the code. Orer, re marking that he was ready now', pulled the trigger and shot Vaughn off his horse, dead. That was a settlement, so far as the creditor was concerned, according to his own olt-re- peated proposal. Orer gave himself up to the authorities, who will examine the account. IML A c ° * • C. B.
