mm End of Boaes and Belica. The wliole of this section of Connecticut aeems to have once been a vast burying ground, either of Indians or some extinct savage race. Many skeletons have been dug up in this

city and vicinity during the past few years, and new specimens of wonderfully well preserved bones and bodies are constantly being disclosed. On Prospect street the skulls of several Indian women have been unearthed by laborers while digging for sewers and house foundations, and at Seaside park a dozen or more Indian graves nave been opened. In these graves are found pipes, beads, arrow heads, drills, knives and various trinkets such as savage men and women use to adorn their belts. On Golden hill many skeletons have been exhumed within a rear or two. and it is almost

impossible to dig a post hole or trench without coming in contact with human bones. The town of Stratford comes in for a large share of renown on account of the many strange graves which have been opened. Curious pieces of pottery, bearing rude ornamentation, are frequently taken from Stratford graves, and gorgeous trinkets, which are different from those found in other places, show that the tribes in the several districts were quite unlike in their habits and modes of ornamentation. Bordering on the sound, in Lower Stratford, and near the "Spiritualists Hole," so called because a company of Spiritualists forty years ago dug for many days and nights in search of

Uapt. Kidd s buried gold, there re

mains the distinct evidence of an In

dian village, and numerous graves of

dead savages have been thrown open

by men who have more care for the

study of extinct people than for the sa

cred preservation of their last resting

places, lhe village or the braves was

situated on the edge of a great marsh near the present lordship farm. In

some places the clam and ovster shells

are nearly two feet deep. I hese beds

ously wrought tobacco pipes, made of

a peculiar kind of white stone, and they appear to have been colored in the same manner that meerschaum pipes are made brown by long use. In another grave, beneath a huge oak tree. Air. Gray has unearthed the skeleton of an Indian which had been buried in a sitting posture. The bones are evidently those of an adult squaw, and with them were found a genuine Indian dinner pot and a samp mill, which consists of a rough mortar and pestle of stone. These were at one time subjected to great heat. The supposition is that these implements

were from time to time thrown inta

All About It. The ship was the George Pollock, Capt. Withers, bound from London to Lyttelton. Ntw Zealand. We were about 1,000 miles south of the Cape of Good Hope, a very cold latitude in the month of October. I was a saloon passenger, and had been fishing for albatrosses and mollymocks over the stern with a long line and hooks baited with salt pork all the morning. About midday we went down to dinner, but I, being anxious to catch a bird, made a hurried meal and has

tened back on deck. The Sir George. Pollock was an old fashioned ship with a high poop, and, as we had cows k

on board, a number of trusses of hav

had been lashed to the stern taffrail, where they were less liable to be wet

by the sea, than elsewhere.

V hen 1 got on the poop, no one

else being there but the man at the

wheel, 1 found my line had

-ltarreMear the residence of Arthur Bennett, and not far from the line of the Consolidated railroad, some wrr curious Indian tools and orna

ments have been found in the graves of the people who hunted and fished in the prolific streams and forests of this part of New England. In all of these graves, which are filled with sand and gravel, there are vast quantities of clam and oyster shells. There seems to be something about the soil which preserves the bones intact and without decay. Even the hair of most of them remains long, black and InSandy Ilook, a few miles north of Bridgeport, there are three Indian

mounds, which are said to be completely filled with the relics of the race of savages which once made west

ern Connecticut its hunting ana nsuing ground. These mounds are from six to ten feet in height, and vary from five to twenty rods in length. They are on private property. Members of tha RriureTKrt Scientific society have

.nHvnid to obtain permission to

tention of casting the line loose, and was leaning down to do so when the ship gave a pitch. I lost my balance

and fell plump into the sea. From

where I was perched on the hay to tha water, as the ship rose on the wave, was a clear drop of twenty feet or

more, and as I fell flat on my chest the wind was knocked out of me and I was half stunned for the moment. When I came to myself I was floating

pretty comfortably, my thick woolen

clothes supporting me, and my wide awake hat floating by my side.

1 here was a heavy swell, and as I

rose to the crest of a wave, 1 saw the

ship, looking very small, as if she were already a long way off. I noticed, however, that she was hove to, and I felt sure then that I should be picked up. My only fear was that the albatrosses might swoop down upon me and kill me with their terrible beaks, as they had the carpenter of the same ship the voyage before. A long time passed hours it seemed tome and, my clothes having become soaked, I floated low in the water and could no longer empty my mouth fast enough

to get breath or keep the ship in sight Every wave that came sank

me deeper and made me swallow more-'

water. 1 began to feel deadly cold, and I thought it was all over with me.

I could not help blaming my friends;
