A BURIED CITY.-The captain of an American
vessel, named Ray, has lately discovered on the
coast of Peru, in the environs of Fruscillo, an
ancient buried city of considerable extent. Fol-
lowing the course of some excavation he had
made, he found the walls of the edifce still
standing, and many Of them in a complete state
of preservation. He infers, from the number
and extent Of them, that the population of the
city could not have been less than three thousand
souls. Great numbers of skeletons and num-
mics, in perfect state of preservation, were found
among the private and sacred edifces, and
great number of domestic utensils, articles Of fur
niture, coins and curious antiquities. The earth
quake, by which it was engulfed, appears to have
surprised the inhabitants like those of Pompeii
in the midst of their daily avocatons, and many
of them were found by Captain Ray, singularly
preserved by the exclusion of atmospheric air, in
the precise action or employment of the moment
when overwhelmed One man standing up, as
in the act of escaping, was dressed in light
robe, in the folds Of which coins were found,
which have been sent to the scientific institution
at Lima for investigation. female was also
found, sitting in chair before loom, which
contained piece of cotton stuff which she was
in the act of weaving. The cotton stuff (Which
is of gaudy pattern, but very neatly fabrcated)
is about eighteen inches in diameter, and appears
to have been only half completed A great num-
Der of antiquities and curiosities found in this
American Herculaneum grave have been sent to
the museum at Lima.

SiR-A writer in the Metropolis newspaper of

himself "Ennismore,' after heaping upon The

the public many opprobrious epithe,s, stigma
tizes it as 'an address in which naturaliZed cili-

Ions, and illuminated rs the scum of the earth,
and the ohals of Ncwgatc' whom every
epithet of blasphemy and blackguardsm with
which the vocabulary of the ruffle-shirt gentry

As he is pleased to ascribe this production TO

Mr.. Ennismore's accusations are entirely void of

which their representations are entitled.

Melancholy Stticidc.-A tragic event occurred
yesterday morning, about o'clock, on Noble
street wharf A middle aged man named Mr.. r.
J. Pascotare, walked to part of the wharf near
the waters edge, and taking razor from his
pocket, cut his throat in SO dreadful manner
that he nearly severed his head from his body.
He expired almost Immediately. Several per-
sons fastened from the fatal spot to James Gro
CORY, Esq. Coroner, who promptly conveyed
jury; and from the evidence disposed before them,
it appeared that Mr.. Pascotare was about SO years
of age, had formerly been in good circumstances,
but of late had suffered much from the difficulty
he experienced in obtaining livelihood. Two
letters were found upon him, one directed to Mr..
Clemens, and the other to Mr. Schaeffer, in both
of which he stated, that when those gentlemen
had read them the writer would have quilted the
world. They were written in friendly spirit
and contained one or two little requests and direc-
tons which he hoped would be attended to; and
the writer assigned as reason for the rash act he
was about to commit, that from poverty, want of
employment and misery, he was weary Of life
We have been informed that he once kept
hotel at Cincinnati. The jury, after brief con-
sideration Of the circumstances, returned verdict
of "Died by Voluntary Suicide. '-Pha Eng.
