Ancient Monuments Of the Mississippi
Valley.

This is the title Of beautiful volume
issued by the press Of the Smithsonian
Institute, ~ the city of Washington. A
copy of ii volume has been presented
to our Territory. In mechanical execu-
ton, this work certainly equals the best
we have ever seen and it is wonder to
US, If had not been made the standard
for public printing in Minnesota, had a
copy of it been here during the incuba-
tion of that marvellous printing bill that
persisted; which bill. if it had become a
law, would have been, like the bill of a
prairie snipe, longer than the whole body
Of laws beside.
The Smithsonian Institution, our read
ers of course know, was founded by Mr..
James Smithson, rich Englishman,
who left large estate to endow an insti-
tuition in the United States of America
for the increase and diffusion of knowl-
edge among men. 1t seems to be a very
judicious application Of some of the in
terest of this fund by the regents ap-
pointed by Congress, to use it in the
publication Of valuable scientific works,
like this, Of such character as indi-
vidual publishers would hardly hazard
mourning the expense of publishing. 1t
would take snug fortune to publish a
work like this; and lifetime to make
it remunerative by the sale Of large
edition.
1t contains numerous plates and en-
cravings of ancient Notifications, mounds,
implements; and various pictures of
carvings and of presentations in stone,
Of birds, fishes, quadrupeds and rep
titles.
1t does not seem to be consistent with
the plan of this work, or even with the
purposes Of the institution, to indulge in
any speculative theories concerning the
history of these remains, what nations
were the authors Of them, or in what
age or ages they had their origin.
From casual observation of the
work, we see nothing to change an opin-

Mr.. EDITOR:
Perhaps the arrival of the first steam

tant an epoch as any event since the dis

there would have been here no Terrific
RAT Government Of Minnesota, no SAINT
Paul, no Pioneer and but few, if any,
of your intelligent readers, to take a
interest in The history Of those early
times in Minnesota. The first steam
boat that ever plowed these waters, ar
rived in 1923 or 1871 q am uncertain In

ey- After MIR. Jackson has fairly
fastened the paternity of the St. Croix
bank, the safe, the secret signature OF
the bills, and the whole rascally transac
ton, upon Isaac Young s Co. of the
Chronicle s. Register, with a degree OF
certainty sufficient to warrant an indict-
ment, would it be thought that the great
est stretch of impudence could lead the
Chronicle at last virtually to deny it, and
TO pretend to grow indignant at the fraud
and to use such language as the follow
ing, which we quote from the last No. Of
that Journal:
"We intend that the gctters-up Of that
bogus concern shall bear its odium in all
time to come; and no skulking or dodg-
ing on their part can induce the friends
Of correct principles and measures to re-

WASHINGTON. March 10.


In Senate, a bill reported from the
committee on the District of Columbia,
giving permission to construct certain
works necessary in view of the early
completion Of the Chesapeake and Ohio
canal to Cumberland, was taken up, dis
cussed and passed.
| An act providing for payment of inter-
est on transferred war bounty scrip, was
taken up, amended, and passed.
The Senate then took up Mr.. Clay s
resolutions. Mr.. Badger then resumed
his remarks. He said that the Wilmot
Proviso ought td be dropped altogether;
even admitting the fact that Congress
had the power, it was highly reprehen-
sible and entirely useless. 1t was a bad
plan to adopt rules demanding and ex-
ercising the right to do everything we
have the right to. do-the discussing of
extreme measures was always odious.
and when adopted must inevitably lead
to despotism.
! MIR. Fuller from the committee on
printing made report in favor of print
ing 5000 extra copies Of the report of
the committee on roads and canals, set
ting apart certain public lands for con-
structing Whitney's Railroad. Mr. Bow
lin was opposed to the measure; the bill
countenanced one of the most gigantic
of schemes ever known in the country
and gave Whitney power never before
conferred upon man.
MIR. Robinson obtained the floor, and
said that tomorrow he would reply to
Mr.. Bowlin. He said that his remarks
were unfounded.
The bill for carrying into effect the
convention between the United States
and Brazil was made the special order
for Thursday. Several executive COM
munications were appropriately disposed
of, and the House went into committee
of the whole. The California mes
sage was laid over, and the commit
tee proceeded to the consideration of a
bill to supply the deficiencies of appro-
priations for surveys of the present fis-
cal year. A long debate followed, and
much opposition was expressed against
that department for the intrusion. With
out coming to conclusion, the House
adjourned.

Boston, March 81.
Webster's trial is increasing in ex-
citement. Littlefeld, the janitor Of the
College, was examined. His testimony
is circumstantially strong against Web
ster. During the trial yesterday, the
court room was crowded to excess. The
Jury was sent to inspect the scene ofthe
alleged murder. When they returned
they proceeded to hear the testimony of
the City Marshal He testified to the
search made after Parkman, discovery
OF his remains, and subsequent arrest of
