There is a curiosity in Long pond, which lies mostly in Bridgeton, Cum- berland . county, Me., and which has often afforded matter of speculation. On the easterly side of the pond is a cove which extends about 100 rods farther east thaf the general course of the shore. The bottom is clay, and so shoal that a man may wade fifty rods into the pond. ' At the bottom of this cove are stones of various sizes, which, it {s evident from vari- ous circumstances, have an annual motion toward the shore, The proof of this is the mark or track left be- hind them, the bedies of clay driven up before them, Some of these stones are two or | three ton: weight, and have left a track of several rods behind them, having at least a common cartload of clay before them. The shore of the cove is lined with these stones, which, it would seem, have crawled out of the water.

This is possible, though not probable. The estimates of the ma- terial damage caused also ry. | Some assert very definitely that in the two nights damage amounting to 37,500,000 shillings was caused, while 'others think it safe to go only to 25,000,000 shillings. The main damage seems to have been caused in the district between the Charing Cross Bridge, Somerset House and the Strand, then round the Tower § | of London Bridge, and the custom that reprisals wo the Spaniards resident in Belginm. The threat was not an empty one for, in the early days of the war, the agent of this very estate had been taken as a hostage by the Germans and shot.
