Uncle Noah, with profuse
thanks, hobbled away, inwatdly
jubilant, but outwardly lugubrious.
to assume his new easf
and dignity. In a suspiciously
short time word came to the mas

witli rheumatism. A strapping
young fellow named Juba wa*
promptly detailed to attend him,
The old man had been a great
hunter of the coon and 'possum,
and hi* kennel of hounds, as line

the Mississippi bottoms, missed
their master sorely, but the hunting

came about that one night, as th<
old man lav upon his humble
bed, with Juba asleep upon ji

emptory baying of the dogs told
that they had treed something
IJnole Noah listened in silence at

"Juba! Juba! Git up! I'm

By this time llncle Noah's

or less carelully, and up he went.
The hounds stood expectant;

began to climb downward. Juba

communicated his panic to the

made by the agricultural
partinent says : The temperaire
conditions in the northern

jptember 1 were more favordo
for maturing crops than in
le previous week, but, a*-# in
ip two weeks immediately preding
the excessively high
mporatures prevailed in the
sntral and West Gulf districts,

rain has intensified the

coast districts from southern

i the States of the Missouri
alley and in portions of upper

atured rapidly, owing to the

Now h Stream of Fire.
Kingston,Island of St. Vincent.
Saturday, Sept. <>?The sights
in the Windward district of this
island resulting from the eruption
of 1 .hetjSoutriere volcano Sept. 3,
are very inttiestiug. The liu
bacca river even now is a stream
of lire a quarter of a mile or more
wide. Tiie greater part of the
Rabacca is wrapped in vapor and
there are mimic eruptions every
where. The liver lied is continuously
throwing up columns and
dense clouds of st roam, mud a"<i
pebbles. The land haH spread
farther seaward and is changing
considerably the appearance ol
the district from what it was prior
to Sept. 3. This was probably
caused by the ?ject that llowed
down the slopes filling the sea
about the coast.
Fifty laborers, deceived by the
apparent quietude ol the valcano,
where working within the tire
zone on vv e<insda.V;at the extreme
north of the inland. when they
suddenly saw evidence of an approaching
dial nrhance of the
mountain, but were to leave the
spot before electric Hashes and
an outpour of pases drove them
to their shelter, where they
remained, at the base of the
mountain throughout. the terrible
night, while forked lightning
darted in .nil directions around
them. The men miraculously
escaped unhurt and arrived at
Kingston yesterday.
The port officer of Chateau
Bolair, who saw the Soufriere
irom tne sea yesterday says that
the mountain is considerably
lower than before.
He declares that the appearance
of the summit has changed.
A large proportion has evident
ly been blown off and the hill
has a much more jagged contour.
The neighborhood is al
tyred. New ridges, valleys and
a strange ravine have been cut
in the west side of the volcano,
down to what was formerly the
Carib settlement of Haraeai,
where* liquid matter was* seen
Mowing during the afternoon of
Sept 3. The northwestern es
tates, Petit Bordello and Sharps
are covered with from 10 to '20
inches of gritty substance. The
crops of arrow root and cocoa
are ruined.
Paring the night of Sept. 4
there was a terrific storm, ac
coinpanied by blinding lightning
and terrible peals of thunder
and a moaning sound from
the agitated crater.
