CAN EDITOR IN THE FIDGETs"


In the following ludicrous manner, the Ma
rion Star, of the 10th inst, informs its read
ers of its positive determination to publish no
communications in the vernacular, that are not
composed in the English language
To Correspondents.-Th Editor OF this
paper was recently discovered by the Pub
Usher in a condition too melancholy TO be de-
scribed. After painfully protracted contest
of several inmates with tremendous array of
original poetica! communications he lay in a
state bordering upon insensibility, j. ,he Edi-
torial chair. Glaring errors in photography
and furious verbs thai had broken from their
nominative cases, were committing an assault
and battery upon his brain, unparalleled for
atrocty in the records of the Sessions iuris-
diction. Every means of repulsion was found
Intellectual to exclude these terrible assailants,
and had it not been for the timely production
of Mr.. Smiths first lessons in English Gram
mar for the use of little children. by which
they were instantaneously dissolved into s.thin
air. the victim of this horrid combination
would, in all probability, have died. 1t is
therefore deemed advisable, for the safety of
the Editorial branch of this newspaper, to in
form poetical contributors generally, that all
communications which cannot bear the test of
the little volume alluded to, will not even be
placed in the Editors hands for consideration,
but will be summarily excluded

WONDERFUL, BUT INCREDIBLE.

WONDERF UL, BUl INCREDlBLE.
We translate from the New Orleans Cou.
rier of the Sd instant, the article that follows,
giving an account of subterranean canal that
has been discovered, connecting the Atlantic
and Pacific Oceans. We believe little or no.
thing of the whole story ourselves, but pub
lish it for the information of those who may
believe, if any such there be, and for the a.
musemsnt of those who do not 1t has been
got up as a hoax probably. Here it is:
French physician established at Vera Paz,
who, besides practising medicine has the charge
of extensive farming estates, upon making
some excavations, undertaken with view of
forming canal through which to carry his
produce to the sea, discovered at the bottom of
the bay of Honduras the opening Of monu-
mental canal seventy five metres wide, (about
two hundred and forty feet,) and running in a
straight line towards the southwest, its sides
being constructed of enormous stones rudelY
cut. The two walls, which continued paral-
| lei, had been followed to the distance of sew
| eral leagues.
| Having reached the foot of the mountains,
where the volcano of Fuego is now in activi-
| ty, and having cut away huge trees that OBJ
structed the entrance, they passed under a
vault of 100 metres in height, (about 335
| feet and of the same width as the canal
| Nothing among the ancient Cyclopean struc-
lures in Greece could give an adequate idea OF
the tremendous masonry of the walls of this
vault. The canal was filled with salt water
90 metres deep. Our intrepid countryman did
| not hesitate to embark with some Indians in a
pirogue, which he caused TO be brought TO the
spot, and eighteen hours afterwards, (if his
story is to be believed,) he entered the great
ocean, (the Pacifc,) between Guatemala and
San Salvador, through an immense natural
grotto, called by the fishermen of that coast
the Devils Mouth, which superstition had de-
tered them from ever entering the whole
vaulted part of this superhuman structure was
lighted by shafts, cut through to the surface
above, and through its whole extent it is nav
igable for the largest ships.
| M. Alexander Humboldt had already men.
TONED American edifces whose architecture
indicated very high antiquity, and revealed
a peculiar civilization; but his learned descrip.
tons gives US no idea of the existence OF such
a monument. What great people, then, has
inhabited these regions' Should this news BE-
confirmed, then, maritime communication il
at once established between the two hemis
pheres, through the centre of the American
continent, and Europe will have nothing to Dc
but to cut through the Isthmus of Suez.
