The fiacs are gathered from a letter lately received from a friend of the parties. by a relative in- this town, and may therefiare lae relied an as paarticularly tudeniably.-German toten Advocate. A rosmatiic and thrilling adventure lately happened to a bridal party. Visiti tie Mammnmoth Cave. Kentucky. 'The party conisted of the brde nd groom, the bridesmaid, the brother of the grnnom, amd a guide. After entering the cave and traversing that portion mnost frequented, Athich occupied many hoars, mt violent storm arose, accompanied by heavy show ers f rai'i. There are several rivers in the -ave, which rise rapidly and overflow. and they, unaware of this circtumstance, got into a boat for the purpose of crossing oie f the rivers. By some accident. the boat was tmpset and they precipitated into tie %tream: aind, as if tam render their situatiomn more terrifying, the torenes were extin taoi-aied and the matches wem. -4;arely ithing hit the interposition of Divine Providence could have extricated them rom a siiniamin of so muci immineit peril.

The groon remained itn this painfuml posi ion some timte, with tie water raising upon them. The guide. (a colore'd man) deserves nuch credit fir his exertion. He reached the opposite baink, righel the hmaat and rowed across to them steered by their voicest -nd thus managed to lanid them qafely on dry ground. They had not yet, bowevet, escaped all dangers, but were cold. *et atdil shivering, with the prospect of renainirtg in this situation. It was im possible they could find their way aut of this intrinsic labyri-nilh without lighte, and they had no reason to expect assistance rom without, it being customary for par ties to remain i day wiahin the cave.
