ANTIQUITIES OF UPPER PERU.

In this ve,y interesting uira reca COM
muncation to the meeting at Edenburg,
MIR. Pentland stated, that all about the
lake Titicaca, he had discovered innu-
merable tombs, hundreds of which he had
entered and examined. The monuments
were Of grand species Of design and ar
chitecture, resembling Cyclopean re-
mains, and not unworthy Of the arts Of
ancient Rome or Greece. They, there.
fore, betokened high degree Of civil
Zation; but the most exit aordinary fact
belonging to them was their invariably
containing the mortal remains of a race
of men of all ages, from the earliest in
fancy, to maturity and old age; the for
nation Of whose crafiia seemed to prove
that they were an extinct race of natives
who had Inhabited Upper Peru above a
thousand years ago, and differing from
any mortals now inhabiting our globe
The site is between II and 10 deg. of
north latitude, and the skulls found, (of
which specimens are both in London and
Paris are remarkable for their extreme
extent behind the oecipital foremen, in
somuch that it could hardly be believed
their owners could move in perpendic-
ular position. For two thirds Of the
weight Of the cerebral mass must have
been deposited in this wonderfully elon-
gated cerebellum and as the bones Of
the face were also much elongated, the
general appearance must have been ra-
ther that Of some Of the ape family, than
Of human beings. In the tombs, as in
those Of Egypt, parcels Of grain were
left inside the dead; and it was another
sing gular circumstance, that the maize or
Indian corn, so left, was different from
any that now existed in the country. MIR
Pentland entered into details to show
that the extraordinary forms thus brought
to the light of day from their long So
journ, could not be attributed 10 pres
sure, or any external force, similar to
that still employed by many American
tribes; and adduced in confirmation OF
this view, the opinions of Cuvier,-ot
Gall, and Of many other celebrated nat
uraists s. anatomists. On these grounds
he was of opinion, that they constituted
the population of these elevated egions
before the arrival of the present Indian
population, which, in its ply sical charac-
ters, It's customs, SC. offered many anal
ogies with the Asiatic races Of the old
world.

MISCELLANEOUS.

The following is an extract of letter
recently received per Frigate United
States, from all officer of the u. S. line
ship Delaware, giving an account of the
excursion Of the writer to the Holy
Land:
"On the 10Th Of September, says the
author, Commodore Patterson,-i family,
and large party, left the ship for Jeru-
salem, 40 miles i'll the interior. Ofcourse
! was OF the party. We landed at Jaf-
ia, and after two or three hours delay in
engaging mules and donkeys, we started
at 5, p. NJ. Our party consisted Of Cd
all armed with brace Of pistols, and a
cutlass; also a guard Of four Arabs, well
mounted and armed. The first evening
we slept at Rama, village nine miles
from Jaffa Started the next morning
at 7, A. M; rode through broiling sun,
dined under some fig trees, and stopped
before tho walls Of the Holy City at 8
P. NJ. after a most fatiguing journey -
The Commodore and family put up at the
English Missionary's house; but the rest
Of US were conducted to the Greek Con-
vent. What was our horror, after antic-
ipating delightful nights rest, to be
ushered into row Of miserable cells

persons, with stone floors and walls, no.

thing in the shape of table or chair
Miserable as it was, We laid down, and
had just began to dose, when the feas
attacked US en- masse; and with scratch

times to shake them of, we spent our
first night in the Holy City.
The next day we visited Calvary. On

FlREMEN OF PARIS.

1t is almost superfuous TO state that
there is in Paris, and indeed in every
town in France, corps Of firemen, who
are denominated sapems-prompiers. The
men composing it are in general, carpen
ters. Their full dress consists of mill
tary blue coat, with red epaulettcs, blue
trousers, CATERS, and brass helmet sur
mounted by bear skin, and ornamented
with scarlet plume. When off guard,
the helmet is changed for cooked hat.
Besides being similarly trained, they are
armed like the soldiers of the line, with
the musket, bayonet, and b,'iquet "a short
cut-and-thrust sword On summons to Il
fire, the gorgeous helmet is put off, aud
replaced by plain but service able brass
casque, which guards the head against
falling bricks, tiles, or pieces of timber.
The military coat is dofled, and tight
smart waistcoat with sleeves, substituted
for it. If the fire be not of TN extensive
or very mcnacing character, three men
only are told off from those OIL duty, and
fly to the scene of action. One of them
bears an axe; second, a coil Of rope
with hooks attached to it; the third lad

ther or not their military habits do not

shall only add that every theatre, spec
tacle, and institution in Paris, is day and
night watched and guarded by one, or
more firemen, the number Of them being
always in proportion to the extent OF the
building or the hazard to which it is ex-
posed. Besides the ordinary guard OF
fremen at every theatre in Paris, a rein
forcement arrives an honr before the
doors are opened, which is Withdrawn
