such circumstances, any substance would roman
for almost Unlimited ages, without undergone
position. That these caves wcrc known, N resort
ed to by the ancient inhabitants, is sufficiently cvi-
dent from the many rude specimens OF their man
ufactures, and the mummes which have been DIS
covered there.
Wo know the profound respect that all savage
nations nav to their dead. The most favored spot
is shoson for their scpuurc; they wrap the corpses
ofthcr friends in tho richest covering they can pro
cdrc, and adorn them with the most valued OF their
ornaments We need new evidence TO con-
vince us that such, at least the custom of the
people, whoever they were, that inhabited tho val
ley ofthe Mississippi. Here then, in these cavcrns'
whero the dryncss of the atmosphere, and the pre-
servative qualities of the saltpetrc, prevented corro
sion and decay;-hore where the bodies of their
| vencrated dead were deposited, cnvcloped III man
ties ofthc most laborous workmanship, and adorn-
ed with profusion of trinkcts;-hcrc If any had
been known to them, might expect to find
specimens oftho metals, ut least, some evidence
of their existence. Such, however, has not been
the fact.
A mummy taken from ono of these caves, and
exhibited in tho principal cities of the United States
has beon pronounced the remains of Royalty; that
opinion was founded on the great that evil
IDENTITY had been taken for its prcscrvation tho rich
ness of its covering, and tho profusion of its or
naments. The mantle i'll which it cnvelopcd;
was wove from tho feathers of the wild turkey.
The colors were tastcfully arranged, and it must
have been wrought by slow and tedious process.
In dissent from the opinions of those who disco
yer many proofs of former civilization it is pos
sible that VIC may sometimes approach too nearly
the opposite extreme ofincrcduiity; but when we
examined the mantle of feathers that wrapped this
mummy, could not avoid the conclusion that
the people who wrought it, with much labor,
were ignorant of the loom, and of all arts Ivy which
fax and cotton are converted, by simple process
into covcrting far more bea uiful and valuable
Among the stone, SHE'LL and other ornaments of the
mummy, there was none metal. Had even copper
been known to them, nationally believe
that they would not like the Peruvians and Mexi-
cans have preferred ornaments that metal to any
they could make of stone?-Thc arrow heads that
are often found in tho mounds and other places
prove any thing but knowledge Of the arts OF
civilized life. Who will believe that tho ancien,
inhabitants submitted to the slow and toilsome o.
poration of manufacturing arrow heads from piece
ofimpenetrntcd flint merely because they preferred
| them to those made of iron?

OfJackson and reform.
Lot but our Cbiof once gain the power,
Above all other chiefs he'll towor,
And lowly will intrigucs cowor,
Fore Jackson and reform.
Congress will then no longer be,
A hot-bed ofvenality,
Its office hunting tribe will fec,
From Jackson and reform.
"Ihe greatest and the best Of men,
Will hurl corruption from her don,
And thoroughly cleanse. her filthy pon,
With Jackson ana reform.

Above all barefaced batteries.
On how the minions he'll despisc,
Hail! Jackson and reform.
No sordid parasite will dare,
To sieze the patriot by the ear,
And make ingratitude appear,
Like Jackson and reform.
All other chiefs will be outdone,
