monly rich and fertile. In a narrow swamp also ad-
joining it are snore WWI mounds and dikes or cause-
ways, evidently of human wo. kinanship.
About three or font miles further up the valley is
another very remarkable mound, surrounded in part,
as I was told by the man who lives adjoining it, by a
similar entrenchment to the one above described, and
a part of which 1 myself saw, comprising about 26 or
30 acres. This mound is of a pretty regular square
form, and about 179 feet on each side at the base,
regularly contracted on each side in an angle of about
45 or 59 degrees. Its height is 30 or 33 feet, and it
is pretty level at top, and covered with girdled oak
timber. of the largest size of upland oak in this county
—one of the trees being nearly or quite three feet in
diameter. On its sides also are largo trees, shrubs,
briers, and flowering plants, some of which trees have
perhaps for ages past been falling orcasioually, id
dinging the earth• with their root* from the steep
aide of the mound, some of 'kith are even now lying
to that *iteration ; and to this canoe sail the ordinary
operation of the elements, 1 attribute what of irregu-
larity appears in its form; the top of it was last year
plou.,rheil, and planted with corn, and every tree upon
itsacrileeitinsiy killed. The whole superfices very rich
and fertile, and he must be a skeptic indeed who should
doubt of its having been a work of art.
On one side of the mound, and at the distance of 10
or 12 rad• f it, runs a • I creek of, considerable
site, whirl) in times of frrsiiets, overflows its banks
to a considerable height—on this side, there is nu ap-
pearance of the entrenchment, dolt extending only
from the creek on our si.le of the mound around to the
creek on the other side. Whether there ever was one
which has within ages past been swept away by the
wale's of the creek or not, is a mutter of conjecture.
Near the m und are abont 15 pounding mortars,
wrought in solid immoveable limestone rocks of a per-
fectly regular firm, and ii; almost a perfect state of
preservation, two or three only of which 1 saw—
the dimensions of one which 1 measured were
seven inches in diameter at the to and seven
inc'.es deep, very regularly contracted to
• utuse point, with a flat perfectly circular brim
around it of -1 or 3 inches in breadth, wrought on the
surface of the rock and stink a little below the ge-
neral surface, giving the mortar with the brim very
much the appearance of a guaker's broad brimmed hat
hottoni upwards. The number of them 1 learned by
the man nlio now occupies the ground.

PHILADELPHIA, 0. r. 11.—Ifail we not received the
following extraordinary circumstance from the hest
authority, we should rertaioly withhold our belief.
Yesterday at the suit of the landlord, the sheriff took
possession of a house in t•resson's Alley, the tenant
loving at Baltimore. To their astonishment of enter-
ing the chamber, they found a !nix, near his bedstead,
on opening- which they discovered the remains of his
wife %she* died about tire years ago; and on further
search in the garret, a coffin was found containing
the ashes of his child, which had died about three
y Sacs ago. They were immediately interred. The
()dicers and neighbours can eio.,eive no possible mo-
tive for this act of infatuation and folly :—and what
renders it truly astonishing that he should thus pre-
serve the remains of Isis wife, is that since her death
he has married a second wife

THIN QUEEN'S TRIAL.
(Continued from yesterday's STATr•}IA\.)

Hr slionld now proreed to a consideration of this great
questi 4444 nod he dial so with all the anx:ety and all
the distress which mos: naturally be excited he :Itch
a subject. In its outset he had recorded his
Opinion against the mode of proceeding in this
case by Hill, but he trusted he was better
read in the history of our Constitution than
to decline subscribing to the law stated by the
Noble and Learned Lord on the Woolsack, that there
were cases where the adoption of this mote was neves-
airy. But his objection to this measure, in a general
point of view, was so strong, that nothing but a great,
a parativnt, and pressing politic exigency, which could
lie met by nothing short of this pcort could bring
him to sanction its adoption. Ile therefore had reE
corded his objection in the present case, because
there appeared to him nu such exigency, and because
there was a rented/ by impeachment. 'I be grounds
of that opinion lie had no wish to reargue, hut he ter-
taiedy was surprised to hear his Noble Friend un the
cross-bench, who was an acknowledged able lawyer,
(L.wd Itedesdale) say, that the procecolitki by im-
peachment was impracticable. The Noble Lord
has laboured at that point with gte .t earnestness ;
but snrely be must have forgotten that all cases
of impeachment were those which could nut be met
by any existing law. Another argument hail been
pressed with cunsiderab:e intended weight, but be
thought unsuccessfully. It was said that the present
mode was more advantageous to the ;termed than
that of impeachment. To guilt it certainly was
more favourable, because it afforded a chance
of escape; but to innocence it was none.—
The Quests, according to the present measure, would
be Mimi* and jodged, and then sent to a second
,trial, her sawn then passessing knowledge of the
