As is well known, the train conveying that wonderful aggregation of brains, lieft this city at'1:40 P. r., on Saturday last It so happened that, as soon, as the train got under way, Professor fedx and jPro feasor B. QuarterhorsePankins engaged in iui animated discossioo in Tega#^to, the origin of the Mounds which are so profusely scattered- through the States Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Missouri Professor Box asserted that these Mounds *i-e the work of the" white' AbbHgiqes this country, the predecessors of the Red Indians, and that they are coeval with tlie "Tumali" ot Central AmSltca and the Pyramids of Egypt!

Professor B. Qilarterhorsi Pilnkias" on the other hand contended that these Mounds or hillock^ are not jOf human origin at alii" but that they are the result of sub-oceanic currents, and were formed when this c&niinetal wtos submerged arid before it had been lifted by a slow and gradual upheaval above the Visty detep I The debate: grew warm—each adyoci finding partisans among the occupants the car—and filially Professor B. offered to wftger his opponent that he would be able to convince'him by a five iftinuter's •personal inspection of the mounds in question,, thathii position was un tenable.

At this precise moment, tB» train was passhig' the gravel pit of the ^sitftiad Company at tlie rate of thiyty miles p«r hour. '"There they are now!" suddenly 4x3aimed J^dfe^or .B.^.. P. [minting some hillocks scattered over..the gravel

pit. "Stpp^he train^r frantically yelje Professor B. to coriducfor Sam Trindle who war passing through the carj ooll«ct|ihg his tickets. -That obliging offidal supposing that one of his, precious cbarges had: fallen from4he~ train, gave the' lieB rope a powerful jerk^ which was idmedi ately responded to by engineer McKeever who I'sjapped''pii thexW«»tingl»ouse^aii brakes and in a moitoefcit each' ^ciettnific head was pitched, forward, in obedience to the-law of momentun. to .the imminen danger of ita pr Jcidus contentJ.^^y

Major Simpson, the efficient Genera Superintendent of the Vandalia Line, was appealed to for permission to detain the train a shoft time until the mofindii could be inspected. His'^eply' Was thai, "he would hold the train there six months'if neccessary." The "scientists qoickly evacuated the ca%and unde^the leadlrsfeip^of the rival Professors, they made a rapid movement in the direction of the mounds and swarmed around-their bases intent on solving the knotty pfob lem.

The President of the Association decided that .Piofessors B. arid B.rQ. P. should each be allowed ten minutes to elucidatehis peculiar theory, and in order that he might be heard to advantage, thai each man should ascend' tne hi'gnest mound, and from its peak address the as semblage below. Professor B., in obe dience .„to this decision, consumed some time in ineffectuaT attempts at scaling the hights by taking short runs and striking the foot of the grade at a high velocity, but failed in every case to reach the summit..-* At last a Professor in the Mechan ical Department or section, whose name did not learn, demonstrated by figures that it would require the power of a Quar ter Horse (no reflection on his learned brother of that name,): to lift ProfesSbr to the required elevation, and that the muscles of his legs Wert $ot 'sufficiently nurtured and exercised to develop so much power. He therefore advised tha^ fifty or more Professors fprn^ in Bingle file with Professor B. at their head, and that each member place his digital members gpon.thjti lower dorsal region of the p»r BOB in front, and that at a given signal, the. colninn should advance at a double quick, and with the momentuip thus obtained, elevate the Professor to the reqo!ra9^£^pi(.1 ol' genius—ilas adopted, ''arid In'less time than it has taken to record it, the Prpfessor was landed, on.the. very apex of tiro moundr The Professorial column was somewhat demoralized in attempting to descend the hill in the same order as it hadascended, thus disprovibg the aiiom of Virgil—"Faciiit deeeruw," Ac.—"to go down hill is easy.

It would be impossible in this brief and cursory notice to give the remarks of the learned Professor in full. A brief of the arguments. advanced te prove his favorite theory is all I shall attempt. He carried his hearers in imagination back to the time when civilized, enlightened and prpsperous race,—the builders of these very mounds, —inhabited this country,and, as Macauley portrayed the solitary New Zealander of the future, sitting on the decayed and cri&blirig arches of Londori Bridge add meditating on the ruins of the great Metropolis,—so the Professor brought to thf faind's eye, the Red man of the past gazing on the remains of that earlier and mqre brilliant civilization which onr modern times have failed thus, far to equal. "And what, my hearers! (exclaimed the Professor, grpwing warm over his subject) "was the cause of t^e decay and downfall of this mighty-race, the possessors of this vast continent? I will tell yon,—they had no Mock coalf No people can flourish witnout this "sine qua non" of material prosperity. It can't be done. These people were ignpraot pf^e treasures which they had under their feet, abd the )^Bj»lt was extinction^ Fortunate people of Indiana! It was reserved for you to develop thw great blessing to your generation and to hand it down to your posterity."'

well named city of bores—it for^hee to^pops^Bsjmoth^r cU

and the relics of the primeval race o1 this continent, and thb spot will become a Mecca^ as it were, foi- the resort of scientistt) in all time to come."

Here the Professor wiped the perspira^.^rop^wsjieatfl bran, witbt Jiif red Bandanna, and after a brief pause, resumed—"I am here to prove my theory,^! ton '^determined to probe the thing to the bottom I propose to apply the "Experimentum crucis" and to excavate opepf iheseinpundifc ao^ ^the bones and felica or theae ahcient mound builders are not found in this very "tumulus," I Will repfct-and forever ifter' holcl^ my peace."

The Professor, thereupon descended from his elevated perch by sliding down "a posteriori"—("perhaps")—a manner hardly suited to the dignity of the occasion, an«£« colimittfetf was: appointed to carry out his views. An ancient Hibernian,—who was standing at the door of jii? f?h*|tjr ft

stolidly at the scene with his pipe in his mouth,—was induced by the committee to shoulder his spade and:pick and follow them to the sjiot of the"proposed excava-. tion. hThe excitement ran high be6 of two to one were offered on Professor B. arid' no takers.
