Cromwell, Conn., september 20.?My | attention lias been called to a copy of your j paper of the iGlh Inst., containing an article j purporting to give an account of my recent encounter with the?or :<?sea seipent in | the Connecticut river opposite this place. Your reporter is rather inclined to make light of the whole affair, and says that public opinion is divided as to the appearance of the monster. 1 !o quotes Professor "William Brewer of .Middletown in this particular. Professor Brewer, while a man of great judgment and ci Million, ana an ardent student of natural history, can hardly be considered competent authority in this case, for he was not within three miles <,f the place where the serpent appeared, nor has he, to my knowledge, talked with those who saw it. At all events, he has not talked with me nor with 3Ir. Silas Sage, who was in the l>oat with me. Neither did your reporter see either of us. The theory of our running into alog is exploded by the fact that whatever it was that struck our boat came up near the stern ?r><? \VP with nnf Ivrcit were Ditched for "ward. Then, too, we both saw the great serpent lashing tlie water and we unmistakably saw portions of its body in the water. We also saw it raise its Lead out of the water to a distance of at least ten feet and open its mouth and emit therefrom a red tongue. All this we'saw as plainly as men could who were pretty well shaken up and frightened. Captain Phelps, Mr. "Wiishire and Rev. Robert Sawyer saw the serpent, as did also 3Ir. 13. G".

It was so dark that they could distinguish little more than the fact that the water seemed greatly disturbed, and soon began to rock violently from the waves that came toward the shore. It was not a passing boat, fcr that would have been plainly visible; neithc-r could they have mistaken the sound of a steamer's paddle wheels. They did not dure to row out to investigate, but pulled up their anchor and Lurried for I he shore. I could cite other instances, if necessary, to show that some strange visitor has recently come up the river.

Gloucester, 2s. -J., Sept. 20.?Crowds of people have come here anxious to see the sea serpent thai chased Captain Pickle in Howell's Cove on Friday evening. At on early Lour yesterday every sail and row boat in Gloucester and Kaign's Point bad been chartered and scores of white-winged craft sailed down from the city. The objective point of these boats *?> as Howell's Cove and vicinity, and the hope that animated most of their occupants was the hope " ' ~ * 1* - aaim.k *7 wi >-* ? o ri r> A Ol iiUUUij tii ;ic it'iUM wt uimtw monster." Many of tlie people who went out ia tlie sailboats took rules and shot guns with, them, and many of them carried long boat hooks and old rusty harpoons. At one time the broad expanse of water below Gloucester was fairly alive with boats. Some continued the search below Chesser, but at dark they all returned without having been rewarded with even a glimpse of his snakeship. Captain Eckley, of the yacht Lily, who saw the serpent below the mouth of the Schuylkill, on Saturday morning, started out in search of him early yesterday morning and had not returned at a late hour last night. AVl.cn he left he expressed the intention of going as far as the Breakwater. The Marine Exchange was closed yesterday, so it could not be learned whether any of the crews which came up the river yesterday had met the monster or not. Captain Pickle was plied all day long with questions, and as he is now regarded as a sort of hero he was obliged to refuse more invitations to't take suthin'" than he "orobabl v ever before received. His old spy-glass was in Constant demand, as was every other spy-glass in Gloucester. Iron side bar was under scrutiny as long as the light lasted, and ever}' owner of a spy-glass was surrounded by a group of curious people as long as he would consent to scan the water. The Sea Xeltle of Mobile Bay. Capt. L. II. Kennerly is laid up at Howards from the effects of an encounter with a sea nettle. He left for that famous resort Saturday, and it is said that lie was stung Sunday. The sea nettle, cr jelly fish, is miitp mmmrtn in "Mobile. Riv. The bodv is transparent and jellylike, dish shaped, with mouth downward, from which hang appendages varying in number, length, and purpose. The "body is so largely made up i of water that on drying it is reduced to a j mere film of membrane. They are so irans- j parent that they would hardly be seen in i the water but for their beautiful colors. ' They resemble some human beings in one j particular?they are all stomach. Their j principal office is to grow hungry and f.ll j up. They are said to make from 100 to ! 200 hearty meals a day and wake up in the ; night shouting for lunch. They eat every- j thing in sight, and when there is nothing j in sight they eat themselves, or, if more! convenient, each other. They move with ! the rapidity and elegance of birds of prey, ! securing their victims with precision by j means of the nettle armed tentacles, and i performing these acts in a manner which j would hardly be expected in a transparant mass of jelly. Perhaps they themselves are able to recognize the incongruity of these evolutions, but though they may blush they do not hesitate. Evidently they arc driven to it by hunger. A tish that has to eat so many hundred meals a day must be very hungry from habit as well as from principle. .Xo doubt the jellyfish was surprised when it tackled the portly Capt. Kennerly, and found that it had bitten oil more than it could chew. C\:pi. Kennerly was also surprised, painfully surprised. He says s<\ There is no doubt as to his feelin<rs in the matter. But. harmilv he escaped, plus one experience, and. the jelly fish is by this time "a mere film of membrane."?Mobile {Ala.) Register, ikpt. 10. Fashion Xote* for October.

The reports published here from Bulgaria are for the most part either untrustworthy or calculated to create false views o? the position of affairs. The situation there is considered critical, and civil war is dangerously near. Bismarck's conciliatory policy toward Russia has modified the English attitude. The Foreign Office is disposed to take the stand that if the powers do not consider it for their interest to support her in preventing the fall of Constantinople, she will oiler no opposition to Russia extending her inlluencc to f ? ? ti.nt /.ocn -in/.

In diplomatic circles the belief is universal that Salisbury was completely outwitted by M. de Glers in the Bulgarian episode from the time he returned to office to the final abdication of Alexander, and that Russia is master of the situation in the The Post'* Berlin correspondent telegraphs that Turkey has remonstrated against the action of Russia in impeding the court martini of the Bulgarian conspirators.

J., September 10.?A convict caused a great commotion in the State prison here last Tuesday. In the afternoon the alarm signal v.-as rung in the prison for the first time in many years, and in an instant deputy keepers and guards crowded into the brush shop whence the alarm came. They found James Driscoll, a powerful convict, in one corner near the elevator, armed with a heavy chisel and a long needle. I In front of him stood two deputy Keepers j covering him with their heavy revolvers. ; The head keeper stepped up to Driseoll | and said: "Driseoll, if you don't lay those j things down in live minutes we will shoot." j "Shoot and be hanged. I will have one : life anyway," replied Driseoll doggedly, i The keeper held his watch in his hand and ! told oil the minutes as they passed. ! "One?two?three?four?" i "Don't shoot," at this moment interposed : Prison Inspector Cartwright, who was an ! eye-witness of the scene, and whose word io low thn YMMcnn "rrsvA him timo t A ; is} j.ci ?? HA txiv ji/iwyu, ^^ iiiui uiiiv j consider." Arguments were used to inj duce Driscoll to surrender, but without j success. Again did Inspector Cartwright ; say, "'Don't shcot."' Finally, realizing that | harsh measures would have to be resorted j to, he started to leave the room, but as he - closed the door he changed his mind, ancl j returned wiih the determination to prevent bloodshed. '"Hold on; wait a moment," i he said, as he advanced toward Driscoll, ' despite the efforts of the keepers to restrain I him. "2so\v, look here, young man," said the Inspector, as he stood within live feet j of the prisoner, "You arejhrcwiug your i life away. Do you know me?" "Xo, I | don't know you, and I don't want to know I you," answered Driscoll as I13 brandished his weapons. "I am one of the inspectors, and it is my duty to protect you. That is what I am here for. 3!y name is Carti wrhrlit." "If your name is Oartwright, you have I got a good name in this prison. If you j will send these hounds away from here I | will go anywhere with you," said Driscoll, j as he took both weapons in Lis left hand ! and allowed the Inspector to take him by ! the right. After nearly every official had left tbe room, Driscoll laid down the weapons and walked quietly with the Inspector to the rotunda. On the way the Inspector told him that he had committed a very grave crime and that he would have to be punished for it. "But.'' said the Inspector, "1 will see that you are not tortured."' Driscoll was then handcuffed and placed in the dungeon, and is now feeding on : bread and water. The immediate cause of { Driscoli's revolt was an order of Deputy i Keeper Ashley for him to stop singing, i v.-jucli he retused to obey. Driscoll has the i reputation of being very unruly. He has i served a term on" Clackwell's Island for burglary, and also 10 years in Sing Sing for a similar offence and shooting an officer in Xew York. x TVliilc Tli re is Life There is Hope.

Remarkable Phenomenon Wituexsed by a Party ot Summer Visitor*. Catskill, September 19.?A phenomenon of remarkable character was witnessed yesterday afternoon a mile from Catskill village. A number of persons were sealed on a height, looking down on the roads below, when their attention was suddenly drawn to the fact that although the air was dry and there was 110 indication of a shower, past, present or to come, yet there was nevertheless a sound below as of heavy raindrops falling in increasing succession on the leaves. They discovered that the noise was caused by the falling of innumerable little dark objects about the size of a small bean, which on closer investigation proved to be flies in miniature. The air was dense with the falling flies, like a snow storm save for color. In appearaccc it more nearly resembled the clouds of locust seen in Colorado and other places subject to such unpleasant visitations. The ilies were black, with small, hard bodies and fine, transparent wings. They appeared stupefied on reaching the grounds, but soon showed activity. The shower lasted, with slight inl emissions for twenty minutes. The trees and grass for a very con siderable area were black with the insects. It Do, It Do. Summer has faded into the irretrievable past, floated oat of the gates that never will open for its return, gone with its memories of blossom and bird, and fragrant hedge and swaying vines?but the scent of pennyroyal and the red lump that marks where the last mosquito stopped for refreshment still lingers round the scene. ?
