Thousands of men before them, had paused beside the gigantic mounds which are scattered over the West and South, and indulged in a passing reflection as to whether the red men had raised these extraordinary structures; but no one had thought of systematically opening mound after mouud, exam
ining their structure, comparing the crania found in them, and scrutinizing the utensils of j daily use which this disembowelling brought to 1
'light. Sir. Squier was the first man to do this.

that there were arts once practised which now defy human skill. In mechanics, the ancient Egyptians, and their teachers, the Felasgians, were able to laugh to scorn even the achievements of our steam-ngines. The sight of the pottery found in these mounds carries the fancy back instantly to the Etruscans. We seem to be in the presence of the antique past; to
hav crossed, atone leap, untold centuries; to be gating on the works of men who may have made bricks on the plains of Shinar, or Fpoken face to face, with the sons of Noah. We have no doubt, therefore, from the re
searches made by Mr. Squier, of the existence on thiscontiuent.at an early period, of a population considerably advanced in civilization. The extent and character of their earthen forti
fications come of which cover miles, would favor the idea that this people had been so long accustomed to the arts of peace, that they had sank from their first robust courage, aud learned to depend for safety more on artificial defences than on the prowess of the arm. If, as some travellers assert, these fortifications increase in number as we go South-west, until they reach their climax ou the plateau of Mexico, this
would imply that the great central seat of this
unknown people was in that direction, perhaps on the very shores of Lake Tezcuco. In that case the Rone of the western hemisphere was
probably somewhere near the site of the city of the Montetumas, though at a period of history far anterior to the domination of the Aztecs; while the valley of the Mississippi was studded with her subject provinces, as of old the plains
of Prussia and Poland were with those of the
eternal city. If future researches should establish this to be the fact should prove the architects of Yucatan and the mound builders of Ohio to be the certral aud frontier populations of the same nation, how the dark chambers of the past ' would be illuminated, and the manners, laws nd religion of the true aborigines of America

In a piece of rhyme recently published, entitled 'Spring, the riter, in speaking of the return of the ever-welcome warblers, perpetrates the following, the melody of which is only" equalled by its loftiness o." tentiment. Some birds are white, and some are black, And so are chimney swall-ars; And some are red, like daddy's barn, That cost a hundred dollar. ' From another 011 'Intemperance,' we cull a beautiful extract:
'Gin am white, and brandy red, That makes a man a'lumiks,' It snaps his eyes aud reels his head, And downs his house 'ker-flnmiks.'
The intrinsic beauty and worth of the follow-
161 ing lines must be apparent to the most casual 13(1 observer. Tiiey are from an unfortunate suiter to his lady-love. For elegance of diction and joo harmony of versification, they stand unrivalled, 37 aud must euliU the k indest sympathies of the readers.

S.rj '"Bu mis, reminds me of your article on the
condition of Northwestern Virginia, and that recalled to my memory a circumstance, illustrative of the exaggerated accounts sent to tho eastern states, by persons who ought'to' know, and who do know they are making Incorrect representations. Two or three years since, I became acquainted in a region far distant from this with an acute and intelligent gentleman, formerly t resident of a town near Boston. Learning that I was from Indiana, he enquired if I knew anything of the town of C, and expressed sbr.-.e astonishment upon learning that ft was a thriving villnge, situated in the heart of a rich agricultural region, 'containing a population of near two thousand souls, and posseasing a large share of wealth and refinement. A female missionary, from this neighborhood.
wrote home a dreadful account' of this village;
stating that the inhabitants were ateeped in Ig
norance and poverty, and that the only lrad to be obtained in the place, was corn-bread,'bked
li.e cshec. Tlrs devoted martyr, In sending
home forsuppiios, requested, particularly, to bo
furnished with some fine cambric pocket hand
kerchiefs, as none were to be found in the place;
and the gentleman above alluded to was called
cn tc contribute for this purpose. He, however
decline'; but offered to subscribe a reasonable
sum toward sending out a missionary to enlight
en the Hoosiers in the art and mystery of mak
ing light bread; and he would doubtless haro done this more freely, had lie known thai there
was in the town one of the finest flouring rr.illi
in the west, belonging to yoar friend Major"E.; but in the article of handkerchief, ho thought cotton ones, of a twenty -five cent quality, would
suit such a barbarous plae, better than any
thing else ' I staled iu my la&t, that intemperance was on the increase; and am happy to tell yon that tho friends of good order have begun to take tho necessiry bteps to abate those atiomim ble nuaances, which are scattered along Wbsliingtoustreet, dealing out ciimeand disease by the glassfull. On Monday and Tuesday of the present Week, a co'epie of very effective lectures on this subject, were delii ered by Mr. Hulett, qj MatoKchusetts. and on last evening, a meeting of tho citizens was held at the court-house, for the purpose of praying tiiecouic'l lo .'op off these unsightly excreseene.es. A veryjshorough or-
gijiaticn was effected; and it isr.lenlly hoped that something may be done that shall teach the
grog-seller that he shall not, with Impunity', follow tiie atrocious occupation of poisoning tho
community. In ihe course of the investigation
set cn foot, it has beeu discovered that memberi of the Clrirch are engagd in this detestable business. It is heped that this will be rigidly !ookcdJir.to. It seems t me that the radii ! error now prevalent is the idea that 'retelling is the only odious feature cf tha liqnpr business; and our city has no la iv forbidding U e sale of liquor, in the quantity of a quart cr more. Now if it be wr:nj to sell a pint, it is twice aa wrong to sell a qiiart, ar.d a hundred timrs as wrong to
11 a barrel: and, until the 2onimuuity Komek
to lonk at it in this liht, we shall not get rid of
intemperance. We sincerely hope it ill not be1 long hi fire e begin to find out that a wholesale liquor store is a hundred times more abominab'e than the dirty doggeries wo are so fond of anathematizing. You--. A. Iudisnopolis' Nov. 3, 18?3.
