A discovery of immense scientific interest has recently been discovered near
this place, says a'Wharton (Tex.) letter
to the Philadelphia Times—a discovery
which it is thought will add a hitherto
unknown element to the sixty-five already familiar to the chemist. Chud-
leigh Mason, a prominent cotton
planter living about five miles from
town, while boring an artesian well on
his place struck water a few days ago at
a depth of 215 feet. A powerful stream
was thrown up with a loud report
and a slight trembling of the surrounding earth. Mr. Mason, in ordef
to test the quality of the water, drank
a glass of it, and the negro workmen
also crowded about and drank freely of
the water, which was found to be very
cold and good, though possessed of a
slight unfamiliar flavor, which was,
however, not disagreeable. '
Within a quarter of an hour, or even
less, after drinking the water Mr.
Mason began to feel strange twitch-
ings in the muscles of the face, and his
workmen also commenced to complain
of the same sensation. This twitching
soon extended to the arms and legs, increasing all the while in violence, until at last the negroes cast themselves
down, crying that they had been conjured, and rolled about on the ground
shrieking aloud and writhing with
hideous contortions of the face and
body. As the jerking and jumping oi
the muscles of the limbs grew more and
more violent all hands sprang up and
joinedinawild,uncontrollable dance, oi
rather hopping up and down like so
many disturbed frogs. Mr. Mason, describing his sensations, says that he
was conscious of a feeling of great exhilaration and an increased acuteness
of every sense. The sight of the leaping negroes, who were too frightened
to realize that they were suffering only
from fear and their cries and shrieks
provoked Mm to bursts of laughter that
sounded almost maniacal. Mrs. Mason,
seeing her husband's extraordinary behavior, became alarmed and, running
out, attempted to hold him down, but,
though he endeavored to assist her by
clinging with all his strength to a post,
it was found impossible to restrain him.
This dance was kept np until sheer exhaustion caused the involuntary participants to fall prostrate to the earth,
where they lay - and kicked for some
minutes, after which they fell into n
deep sleep. This sleep was the heavy,
dreamless slumber that follows intoxication and lasted for several hours, bul
left them with clear heads and no evil
consequences beyond a soreness of the
back and limbs and a pain in the. face
resembling neuralgia, which, however,
soon passed away.
Mr. Mason sent a jug of the water te
Houston to have it analyzed, but the
chemists of that city profess themselves
| at a complete loss to account for one of
, ' the elements entering into .the coinpo-
uroKon j sitionof the water, and gave as their
cow, the .unanimous opinion that it may be added,
to the number of known elements as aj
sixty-sixth. This element imparts to
the water a beautiful bright blue tingd
of metallic luster and gives a taste more
like that of fresh cider than anything
eise. When the water is heated the element passes off in a colorless gas of-'-a
most agreeable odor, resembling *^he
perfume of tube-roses, only more penetrating and pungent, -and so powerful
that a gallon of water simmering oyer
a slow lire will render a whole house
fragrant for hours. Taken from the
well and left to stand, hqwever, the
water loses its beautiful blue color and
thickens to the consistency; of turpentine, with a faint greenish, tinge, and
■will when drunk or inhaled produce
violent nausea and vomiting, accompanied by a swimming in the head and
a failure of the sight and hearing,
which lasts for hours.
The negroes about have christened
the well "Devil's Water" and regard il
with superstitious awe, and, with on*
exception, can not be prevailed upon tc
even approach it. This exception is
an old   darkey familiarly  kuown,  as

How Johnnie Caught Battlers.

and everjr time he went out he would
capture a rattlesnake and bring it home
alive.
"How do you catch them. JohuMe?"

were shipped last week for England.
