Hubert, from Pike county, called upon us last .Monday with a written description of a discovery which was recently made near Kinderho'jk, in tha: county. We have not room for his communication at length, but wi'l give 50 much of a summary of it n.s wilt ena' le the reader to form a pretty ccrroct opin ion of the discovery made. It appears that a young man, by thw n imeof Wiley, a resident of KinJerhok, dreamed, ihree nights in succession, that in a certain mound in the vicinity there was a treasure concei.eiS. Imprrsted v. the strange ucea- ion of dreamin!j the fame drenm throe to the ci n :!'. iyhts in ?u' sion, he came iu;i to gatisly his mind by f.'l; :mg into tt; C- Ill ".lilU.

The p'atca were so completely covered with met a almost to obliterate the e"ara otcr upon fh but after un Ic rgotrig a chemical proces?, t! inscriptions were brought out p ain a u:s1 tir-ct. There were six plates, four hie')??5 n length, ona inch nd three quarters wide at th top, and two in.dios an ! t'tree-.j '.Sorter 3 wido at tho bottom, daring o :t t poinU. Tiiero are four line?

A few of the chancterj rerembb in their form tho Roman capit.ds of o :r rdphabet: for instance, the capitals I and X appear very distinct. In addition, there are rudo representations cf three human heads cn ona of the plates, the largest in the middle. From th i 3 head proceed marks or rays resembling thosa which usually surround the head of Christ in the pictorial representations of his person. There are also figures of two trees, with branches, one under each of the two small heads, boih leaning a little to the right. One of the plates has on it ihe figure of a large head by itself, with two Cr pointing directly to it. By whom thesa plates were reported liere must ever remain a secret, unless oorr.e one skilled in decipherit-g hieroglyphics, may be found to unravel the mystery. Soir.e pretend to say that Smith, the Mormon leader, has the ability to read them. If ha has ha will confer a great fvor on the public by temoving the mys-

The anniversary of Washington's birth, 22nd, of February, was complimented by Mr. Jenifert our minister to Ansfrii. by a magnificent ball, a Vienna, to which the Nobility who UFua'h ham: around a Koytd Uourf, were all invited.
