BXTBAOBMSARY PHENOMENON THE HOT
TOM OF LAKE PONCHAIITIIAIN EXPOSED
TO VIEW.
Ui>on tho arrival of the reporters m
the lake shoro a scene, it might, lie
truly said, of almost ghastliness was
|iresented to the sight.
The waters of the lake had com
monood falling about 10:30 o’clock at
the rate of about one foot in ten min- 1
ates, and by midnight the bottom of
I’ontcliartruln lay exposed to the
view, a dark, dreary desert of sand.
Some expostulations hod tho effect of
making tho cabby drive Ids horse out
through tho mire and mud which
lines the shores, out into the rolling,
sandy bottom of tho lake.
There was some terror exhibited at
Hrst on the part of the horse at this
venture upon this undiscovered land,
but after he had become accustomed
to the firm footing of the sandy bot
tom he traveled aloug with the same
ease as If upon the shell road.
The night was unusually dark, and
the lightning, in fitful flashes, now
Slid then threw its glare over the
broad waste. The bottom of t lie lake
vas so unlike what the imagination
lad pictured it the surprise was more
narked.
As the reporters drove further and I
farther out into tho lake, new scenes j
broke ujion their vision. Pools of i
water left after tho subsidence of the I
water was alive with llsh, wriggling
and twisting for more room. Curious
and hitherto unknown Bpeoles were
seen on all sides. Green sealed, sli
my creatures, unlike any thing hith
erto caught, were making the little
water loft lively by their efforts tose
euro an egress to tho deep sea, and
they lashed the Hood in despair.
Oh all sides the hills and miniature
valleys were covered with curious
shapes left there by the fleeing waters.
Here resting on its side was an old
charchoal schooner, with a large car
go on board, the hands looking over
lor sides the picture of dismay.
'There, shapeles and weird, lay the
remnants of some sunken vessel, her
ribs white with the barnacles gath
ered on her timbers, and like the
ghost of departed days, silent, gloomy
and bluek. Driving further out on
the lake’s bottom were passed grin-i
Suing skulls of lost sailors, looking up
toward the overcast heavens us peti
tioners for Christian burial.
The scene was anything hut one
calculated to gratify the esthetieal
tastes of those who delight in tin
beautiful. It. was like some passion
ate, dark study of Dore exciting, ■
wonderful. After a long drive over
this new land the reporters ordered
tho cabby to go ashore, and a journey
[of an hour brought them up to Char
ley Hoyt’s, at the mouth of the New
[Basin. Already the news of this won
[derful phenomenon had spread i
[throughout the city, and there was a I
[large number of hacks and carriage*
I down there heavily laden with euri
:ous spectators looking out upon this
[new Sahara.—A". (). Bulletin, April Is/.
Note.—Tho Bulletin is imitating the
example of (lie New York Herald and
trying to have a little fun out of us|
all. The attempted hoax will not,
meet with the success which attended
the Hi ralil'ii wild animal scare.
ItjMiiiarrk la Parliament.
Tho Imperial Parliament of tin
last three years has been noted for!
the increasing number of tho Catholic
clergy, from bishop to priest, sent
thither in the interests of the Ultra
montanes to light Prince Bismarck :
[ they form now the great core of the
; Opposition ns the Party of the Outer.
Bismarck has, of course, been n i
prime factor in all the Parliaments;
lie began his career in that of Frank
fort as a rank Conservative. Incests-!
ant work is his daily bread, and lie !
labors as earnestly in the legislative j
hails as in his Cabinet. Before he j
enters, his special table near the i
President is covered by bis messen
gers with portfolios and bundles of j
papers. He bows to the officer in the
chair, then to his colleagues of the:
Ministry, with whom he shakes hands
or exchanges a lew words. Being
seated, lie raises his little pearl opera
glass to his eyes and scans the house ;
perhaps roougtiteing a special friend
(.whom lie greets, in the distance, or
going u> one for a few moments’:
talk. Returning to hisdesk, lu-tak
out a little key which opens the port
folios wliieh could tell volumes if
they could only speak, in a moment
he is reading the dispatches and re
ports of his secretaries and counsel
ors; then he corrects their drafts,!
writes letters, or gives the out lines to ;
notes. During this work he sits per
fectly cool and collected, and writes
with the hand and the precision of a I
writing-master, for everything with
him is done with exactness and y,ire.
He writes with a goose-quiil, with a]
broad plume like a flag, and il moves
over the paper rapidly and quietly.
He writes so boh 1 and clear a hand ,
that on one occasion a deputy to the j
Parliament, announced the comple
tion ofa certain work by the declara
tion : “Gentlemen, I have the Cus
toms Treaty in my hand, signed with
the bold signature of the Chancellor
of the Confederation." Bismarck
reads and writes and thinks with
such intensity that one would suppose
him unconscious of what is going on
around him ; but not so. Bet him
hear a prominent member announced
to speak, or Vierehanee his own name
spoken, and instantly be stops his
work and leans hack, all attention,
until the matter is sett led, arid he has
caught every word. During this he is
likely to lie disturbed every few min
utes by his aristocratic-looking mes
senger, who brings him a portfolio
with important documents, or whis
pers in his ear some message from a
foreign diplomatist, in return for
which ho tills a folio with dispatches,
or whispers a few words and dismisses
his servant. All this is performed
without the least sign of haste or
effort; his work is so systematized,
t hat, though his time is precious, he
i seems to have enough for all his pur
! {loses.
And still Bismarck needs and has
a confidential ministerial aid in tiiis
severe work ; his right-hand man for
years lias been the most accurate and
systematic personage in political life
ii Prussia, Herr Delbruek, who is the
Keeper of tile Ministerial Portfolio.
