"THE DOG'S GROTTO."
Tales of the Death Cave of Agnano,
A correspondent of the Mox- chester Guardian writes
At Agusto, near Naples, where the British Vice Consul was rec- ently stabbed, is the famous Grotta del Cane-" the dog's grotto." Mr. Goldie and a lady were walking on the fraceME, OT path, which leads up the cliff in which is the grbito. The place is, as is well known, a batural spring of carbonic acid gas issuing from hole in the rock. A low entrance, hardly a man's height and a long passage into the bowels of the hill are all that one sees on approaching what Joha Evelyn called Charon's Cave, e white mist rises from the floor and the ground recedes inwards. One can descend the first three stepa and no more: if you go farthe the exhalations mount to your feet, kooes, and then waist high; in: another step they would roacis
