comnlete success. Wherever they ex-
hibted, spectators gathered 10 crowds 10
witness the combat. The automaton of.
fered his antagonist the pawn and FIRST
move, notwithstanding which he was al
wavs successful.
In 1926, Mr.. Maelzel arrived in this
country with the auiomaton, and visited
the principal cities Of the United States
and Canada the automaion, as Is we'll
known, generally proving successful
From this country he weri 10 South
America and some oil the West India
Islands and died on his return voyage.
The automatou was landed in Phlladel.
phia, packed away in the manner Mael.
eel had done for the voyage, IN Which
situation i; has remained some years, un.
iii gentleman OF the highest respecia.
bihlv purchased il for the sum Of four
hundred dollars, for the purpose Of pre-
serving il from destruction. On applica.
ton, a company was formed, all conrlbut.
ing something towards the payment, and
it was agreed 10 present tito the PhAadel-
phia Museum, after exhibiting Il a, the
Franklin Institute, where il may now be
seen.
All its former powers have been renew
ed, and il plays the game OF chess as mys-
seriously as ever.
The gentleman who was the first pur-
chaser, found, on board, 4 number Of ends
of games, so arranged that the first move
would determine the result, though il was
no, easily perceptible by the automstons
antagonist and the automaton always
claimed the first move. To this was
owing in a great measure the uniform
success. An excuse was always made
By the exhibitor for playing only parts oil
games on account that the whole game
would take TOO much time.
Whether the secret, which is now in
the possession ola few gentlemen Of this
city, will be exposed, is uncertaln.; but
whether il shall turn out to be mere ma
chine directed by springs and wheels, set
in motion by the exhibitor, or an assist.
ant at greater distauce; or mere pup
pet, moved by player within, who has
for half century, eluded tho observa.
ton ofthousan6s ofeagerly watchful epec-
tators, il must be admitted 10 be one OF the
most ingenious and completely successful
contrivunces, which has ever been offered
to the public. Instead Of satisfying, il
seems continually to excite curiosity, and
the more one goes to see il, the more de.
sifous he becomes to visit it again.

ANTIQUITIES OF THE WEST.

There is no portion of the world thai
abounds more in antiquities than the Yves
tern portion OF the United States; and
many of them are Of nature calculated
to awaken the most curious conIectures.
On our prairies are mounds and small
eminences of various kinds, that seem 10
have been raised by the band Of art !; and
many remans have been dug from the
earth that show that those who inhabited
this country before US, of whose history
we have no account, possessed, - sofne
extent, knowledge Of the arts.
In some instances, there has been dug
from the earth, regular made and burned
brick, and in one instance, have been
found The remains OF walled City--wal.
ed with brick, which would not only ind.
cate tina, those who once inhabited IL, I'M
derstood the art of making brlck, but
were in fear Of aggressious from othei
tribes or nations.
There has been dug up, 90 the Illinois
River, lately, what appeared to be the re-
mains of an ancient blacksmith shop. A
few days since, friend of ours handed Us
an account of some pieces Of ware thai
were dug on his farm, in this county
which bore the marks Of great antiquity.
What remains hidden under the fertile
soil of Illinois, IS yet to be found out by
the curiosity and perseverance, Of the more
enterprisng. While Columbus was phi
lnsophsing upon the existence of this con
iinent--while he was beating out into The
vast waters beyond which il was not
known that tho foot Of civilized or barba.
rous man had ever trod --while he even
discovered this conlnent--whilet the m
grim Fathers were landing upon the rock
at Plymouth, and were fitting themselves
homes, thinking that beyond them vas
naught but the Red man---ihere might
have been in tho Far West a nation Of
people whose history has not been hand
ed down to US, and who possessed, as we
have before stated, degree of clviliza-
ton. The appearance Of the soil and
earth, for some distance below the sur.
face. seems to indicate that there has been
a great change in the external appearance
Of this portion Of country.
In this city we have seen petrified SUBJ
stances, that have been dug up, at the
depth of twenty feet below the surface.
II will be borne in mind that Springfield
is not near any large stream that would
Justify the conclusion that this is alluvlal
earth, any more than any other part Of
our prairies; and from the appearance o.
the whole country, we are led 10 believe
that nearly the whole surface OF our
prairie country has been formed or chang.
ed by some mighty movement in the greal
River of the West--the Mississippi.

Pale flower 90 lovely in thy bloom,
How quickly have thy tints decayed
Thy withered leaves lesson teach,
And tell how earth's bright objects fade.
Emblem Of Iife's deceitful hopes,
Thy sweets but bloom cue transient day
So lovely while thy briiliance lasts,
But ah how soon they are past away
And yet fragrance fingers still
Within thy early blighted leaves
And sweetly breathe thy odors round
To soothe the heart which DER thee grieres
And thus when all Esrth's hopes are dead.
And mourning DER their tomb we bend,
The Spirits fragrant odofs rise,
And, crushed on earth--to heaven ascend.

As rays that fringe the early cloud;
Now closed TO life, 10 love and light
Wrapt in the winding sheet and shroud,
And darly DER thee broods the pail
While faint aud low thy dirge is sung;
And warm and fast around thee fall
Tears Of the beautiful and young.
No more, sweet one on thee no more
Will break the day dawn fresh and TAR;
Nor evenings purple twilight pour
It's softness round thy raven hair.
No more beneath thy magic hand,
Will wake the Tyres responsive lay
Or round its warmth the wreath expand
To crown sisters natal day.
Yet as the sweet surviving vine,
Around the bough that buds no more
Win still its tender leaves entwine,
And bloom as freshly as before:
So fond affection still will shed
The light on thee il used to wear,
And plant its roses round thy bed,
To bloom in fragrant beauty there.
