INDIAN Bones IN CHgLsZA.--In excayating

day, says the Boston. Mail, abest three feet from
the surface, large. number of human bones were
found, undoab,edly these of Indians. They were
thrown in rather promiscuously and consisted oi
the remains of persons of both sexes and all ages
Probably these are the bones of Indians who pef-
ished by the awful epidemic which existed among
the Indians of New England just before the land
ing of tae Pilgrims at Plymsuth. The bones are
in the possession of DR.. Toomy, OF Chelsea
where the curious may see them.

TIE TRUE SpIRlT-Professor Longfel- low, ill one of his beautiful compositions, in speaking of the human heart, says, ''what have seen of the world, and known of the history of mankind, teaches me to look up on the errors of others, in sorrow, not ill anger. When take the history of one poor heart that has sinned and suffered, and rep resent to myself the struggle and temptations 1t has passed through; the feverish inquiet- ude of hope and fears the pressure of want ]; the desertion of friends; the scorn of the world that has little charity the desolation of the souls sanctuary, and threatening vices withln-health gone-happiness gone-even hope, that remains longest gone-I would iain leave the erring soul of my fellow man with him from whose hands it came.n

Fred. You ere, Sabinus. But it has al- ways appeared to me, that the writing of those ''1ymns to the God'so would have r,l- med any other man than you. 1 must con less they are somewhat mysterious
 iSa6in~s. You can't understand them F.. There is scarcely man, in the State of Ar kansas, who can understand them, or see any sense Tn them. It shews ability, to write such pieces. When no man can understand them, and they have once been praised by a crt'c, other writers are afraid to speak against them, lest they should expose themselves to the literary world. They are, therefore, safe. 1hts IS great ability, F.. But, F., there are q grcat many filings that you don't under- stand. You don't exactly understand that assignment
 F.. No, don't Sabinus.
 Sa6ln"s. Well, If you don't, say nothing about it; for have planned every mans de- structon, who has even spoken against that assignment. J. w. took it upon himself, several times to say, that he liked SabinuS, put could not consult the private interest of one man, at the expense of the whole State |; having at the same time an allusion to the assignment. For this expression, before I return from the East, he shall fall like Luci- fer, with this exception, he shan't take any third party with him. And intend to mount euery asan who dares to open his mouth against the assignment.
 f- ' ou are great man, Sabinus but you will find some of those men ride as hard as mule, as soon as you mount them
 Sabi7auS. Don't mention mule to me. I have never liked to ride one since left .Wer- ic0.
 F.. Well, since you are getting snap plsh, we had better end our conversation for the night.
 SGbinuS. We'll, F., I mean no harm. I shall not have another conversation with you until l and my clerk return from. the East. While we are gone, l will determine who shall be Governor, &c. And after I have been highly praised in the Eastern papers, the sycophants, at home, will crouch like sPanlels on my return. l am to meet you, F., at this place; when and where, you will learn more of the future destiny of the State, and take your cue. Good night!
 Thus ended conversation the first.

DISMISS YOUR MERCHANTS. ,,


 In an address recently delivered by Hem " Clay at the Sth annual Fair of the Agri- cultural society of Bourbon County, Ky, on receiving present of blanket manufac- tured by Mrs. J. Hutchcrait, we find the fol- lowing:
 "Wll you allow me, madam, to express the peculiar qualification l have experienced ill the examination of the numerous excellent and tasteful articles with which you and the other ladies present have enriched this Fair Y ou are ill the right course; dismiss your merchants-supply your own family; for with such fabrics as have been spread out to our view to day, we need no merchants but our own fair countrywomen, Sc. &c."
 What will the merchants say to this cap- tdndam. Dismiss your merchants,n then perish Commerce-perish Manufacturing es- tablishments-perish Revenue-pcrish Ga nals and Rail Roads-perist Ships and Seam- boats perish our cities. Perish the Agricul- tural interest-perish every thing upon which the art and industry of our citizens is em- ployed. This is worse than :. famine, war and pestilence." Let our merchants, let dli reflect upon this advice We regret that want of space compels us to postpone some capital remarks in this connection from K en- dall's Expositor.

lures of the Compromise act of 1893, for which Mr. Clay, and his friends for him, have claimed such high praise, are the most un- wlse and improper, that any statesman ever placed on the statute book. Taking this sketch oi Mr. Clay's past and present opinions looking to his recent contradictory and in- consistent declarations, contained in a very short letter, and who can predict what the country Is 10 expect from him on this great financial question, if he shall succeed to the Presidency' Are not his public acts, his public declarations, his public arguments, at war with the last Delphic oracle coming from Ashland Let the honest of the Whig par ty, numerous and highly gifted with all that can constitute them liberal and enlightened party, look to the movements of their leader, before they trust him further T.

ton was effected January l lSii. The rot ten concern had, however, less strength than even its doctors supposed. 1tcould not, with the most prodigious efforts, not even by sad ding the other banks with S7000,000 of its post notes, be made to hold out the so days. It staggered on until the strength of its sup porters was exhausted, when itfell, carrying with 1t the reputation of all connected with It. There il lays, amid the desolation it has created, surrounded by bankrupt States, and dishonored public faith, corrupt and fester- ing mass, foul ulcer on the national char acter
 Such is the brief history of the late Bank ot the United States. At the present time 1t IS full of interest and importance The Whig party is again plucking up courage, and making bold to put forward the estah- lishment Of another bank, as among it's lead- ing measures. The old bank, therefore, must not be permitted to sink into oblivion. Its crimes, it's monstrous deeds of wicked ness, its depredations upon private and pub lic virtue, must not be forgotten. They were part of the system, and will always be the incidents of any similar institution They must be held up before the people, as a bea- con to admonish them of the dangers and perls of establishing another institution of a similar nature. The light of experience is the safest guide, and we should not suffer it to be dimmed or quenched Let the nation now and forever avoid the curse of a National bank, and to this end, let the first advances of its friends be met by signal and decided febuke.
