MrArtR1ous REMA1Ns.--A fem davs ary


MYsfERIoUs REMANs.--A few days ago
while number ofworkmen were engaged
in digging vault in Baltimore, one of
them struck his pick upon hard substance
several feet below the surface of the earth.
Upon removing the dirt and inspecting the
object it was found to be apiece of plank
ingeniously painted on one side to resem-.
BILE hickory.Heod, and on the other in imi-
tation of granite. 1t did not seem to have
been buried more than a few weeks, yet it
was found to be quite rotten. Traces of
obliterated characters were discovered on
the hickory side, but it was impossible to
make them out. On the granite side,
which had new appearance, these words
were visible under strong light:
'ReSolved, That the Democratic party
will resist all attempts at reviewing, in Con-
gress or out of it, the agitation of the Slave
ry question, under whatever shape or col
or that attempt may be made"
The mysterious relic was handed over to
distinguished antiquarian, who took it to
Washington and placed it in the Patent Of
fee. Since then it has been visited and
examined by President Pierce, Senator
Douglas and all the heads of departments,
except, perhaps, the Secretary Of State
None of them pretend to know anything of
the origin, or how it came to be "run into
the. ground. ."-Dayton Gazette.
