miles from Bowling Green. AS his hands were

days ago, they came to numerous fragments oil salt
boilers with the remains of furnaces, great quaint
ties of cinders. GOALS &c. There was every lndl
cation that our predecessors used the spot for the
same purpose for which the General is now using it
Among the specimens which he brought us, are
two pieces of the boilers. They are made OF clay,
mixed with shining substance, not unlike the
composition Of common crucibes as hard as our
best potters ware, about quarter OF an inch thick,
and from the curve of the pieces we would Judge
that the vessels were from two and half to three
feet in diameter, with fiat bottoms. The ashes, in
vast beds, have turned to stony substance, resem-
lblins pummice stone. The General intends futher
excavsting the place, and examining the whole ess
tent OF this ancient salt mandatory. He informs
us that trees of the larges st dimensions grow upon
the spot Correspondent.
