 Indian Relic.-W While certain persons in the employ of Major Butte, of Guernsey, in Ohio, were lately engaged in quarrying stone for the repair of the National Road, on the hill west of Cambridge, they found, in a petrltied state, what Is supposed to have been the body of an Indian child. which perhaps centuries ago, was deposited in that spot. This extraordinary specimen of ancient remains was found imbedded in a mass of solid rock, and has the appearance of stone of the human shape. The ma terlal of which 1t Is composed appears to be a species of lime stone.

 The Globe pubiislies ;tli article, address sed to the people ot Michigan, complain ing of the refusal of the Senate to pass the bill for taking the census preparatory to the admission of Michigan and Arkansas as new States. The article admits that the Senate passed a bill adjusting the boundary between Michigan and Ohio, which was laid on the table in the House of Repfesen- tatiyes. As 1t is impossible for the peo- pie of Michigan to take a census of her population until her boundaries are first defined, 1t follows, as matter of course, if there is any thing wrong in the delay which ensHes, the blame rests with the House of Representatives who, by laying on the ta- ble the bill defining the limits ofthe Terri tory, defeated the object of the Senate in passing that bill. As to Arkansas, it IS not believed that the people of that Territory have petltioned for admissioh.-U. s. Tsiegraph.
