The Apalachicola correspondent of the
Philadelphia Times sends his paper the fol
lowing: “While boring a well ou his vine
yard and orangerv situated on the outskirts
of Eco.'.tina, Fla., Henry Hardcistlerecently
struck what must be an immense uuder
gr- uml river, aud wh oh poured its water
forth at such a tremend us rate that the
men who were doing the boring narrowly
escaped being overtaken by the flood,
which, gushing down the side of the slide
incline on which the fruit fa m is situated,
had soon worn a channel to the dry bod of
an ancient creek. This is soon filled w.th a
rushing, furious tide, which finally emptied
itself into tho Apalachicola, and which has
continued to flow unchecked or with
out signs of diminishing. The water
is clear, sparkling, and very
cold, with only a slight mineral flavor.
Fish by the thousands have beoa thrown
out and are of several varieties, some of
which are of a kind unknown to ichthyolo
gists, being perfectly colorless, while others
are translucent and gelatinous, and all are
without eyes, and very small; except a few
of the s art resembling our pickerel, and
which measure from a foot to three aud a
half in length, and are provided with very
large pointed teeth. Great damage has
been done to his fruit and vines, and Mr.
Hardcastlo, seeing no prospect of the flood
abating, has offered a reward to stimulate
the ingenuity of the local engineers to find
a way of controlling and utilizing the
water. Peoples from miles around have
besn coming in crowds to inspect tho won
der, and one or two venturesome spirits
have narrowly escaped drowning.”
Jacksonville Times- Union: At the resi
dence of Mrs. L. J. Maxey, the “Winter
Home,” in this city, there is stopping a
Virginia lady, Mrs. Hooper, who is a grand
niece of President Madiion. She was her
self ft Madison before marriage, and has ii
her possession a collection of highly inter
esting relies and heirlooms. By far the
most quaint of these, and possessing the
deepest interest from a historical point of
view, is a huge breast-pin of antique shape
and design. It is oval in shape, about tho
size of a hen’s egg, the back of solid gold,
the front of which is concave and
overspread with a substance much
resembling ivory. Upon this is a
decoration doubtless unlike any
thing in existence in this country to-day.
It much resembles painting in oil, but is in
reality done in bits of human hair, com
bined with different coloring materials.
How it was applied to the surface of the
gold is a mystery. It is a lost art. Presi
dent Madison had the piu decorated by a
French artist who alone possessed this
secret, aud who died soon afterward, tak
iug his secret with him into eternity. Tne
design is that of a tombstone, near which
sits a beautiful woman—Madison's mother
—and Mrs. Hooper says that the likeness
is perfect. On the tombstone are the
words, “Deep is the sorrow, genuine is the
tear,” commemorative of the death of the
father of President Madison and the
husband of the beautiful woman. Above
her head is a cherub, commemorative of a
brother of tue President, who died in in
fancy. All the hair used in this art work
was from the head of Madison’s mother,
who was noted in her day for the wealth of
her tresses. The design throughout is very
delicate, and is protected bv a convex glass.
President Madisou died childless, and this
came down to Mrs. Hooper turough the fam
ily of the President’s brother. Only a week
ago a baby boy was born to Mrs. Hooper—a
great grandnephew of Madison. It has been
suggested that he be named Lee Madison
Hooper, a name combining both sides of his
ancestry.

To-day's market was very quiet, especially
before the powers of depression went to work,
and with some liquidation of long accounts,
prices drooped all along the liae: while proper
ties to whicn the bears paid particular atteu

losses a* a result of the day’s operations. Lou
don had no buying orders this morning, and
the market, while very quiet, was inclined to
continue yesterday's downward movement.
Tue market opened weak, and Grangers soon
dropped away a point or more There was buy

the tide, the market closing weak aod at about
the lowest prices of the day, although a few

Chicago. Nov. 29. Jra n and provision urn:
kets opened weak and lower than they close 1
Friday, and the final result was a decli.i* n all
speculative articles. The wheat market wa
heavy at the opening and May delivery 1 ;>v
lower. The spirits of local speculators weiv im
pressed by the evidence which continued to
crop out of the far-reaching effects of the re
cent shaking out of bulls iu the stock market.
Money is still scarce, oven for such necessary
purposes as the carrying of gram and provis
ions, as evidenced by rlie widening of the pre
mium between December and May wheat to 8c
per bushel. At the opening everybody rushed
to sell and then buying orders came In ar a
decline, the market becoming firm every time
May wheat dropped to the neighborhood of
$1 00Lg. There was recovery toward the close,
(lorn sympathized with wheat, and lacking suo
port ruled, weak and lower. Oats wera fairly
active but weaker and unsettled au-l prices
ranged lower. The opening was at decline
and the close about tne same. In pork oni / a
fair trade was reported Market was easier and
prices lower. In lard quite a good business was
transacted. The close was a fraction lower and
quiet. In short ribs a fairly active trade was
reported and the market in a general way was
easier. Pr ces were 2U(2>sc lower.
