LIVE OAK CLUB.-The FIRST meeting of an or
ganization designed to advance the interests Of
George Law, Esq, as candidate for the Pres
idency, was held few days ago in the city of
N. York. 1t was a large and of decided interest.
The organization is called Liv Oak Club No. !.
James w. Barker, Esq, was chosen President
and on, taking the chair. made an earnest speech
eulogistic of Mr.. Law. He was quite certain
that If Mr.. Law is nominated by the Americans.
for the Presidency, neither the Democrats, or
Republicans will essay any earnest opposition to
his election or if such opposition is offered. it
will be entirely futile, and Mr. Law will succeed
by majority quite unprecedented. Mr.. Barker
was followed by w w. Fosdick, Esq. who briefly
urged the nomination of q candidate for the Pres
idsncy,at the National Convention Of the Ameri-
cans. to be held in February, and that the candi-
date be Mr.. Law. That work. he said, will be
good e,and good work cannot be commenced
too early. IF Mr.. Law 10 nominated time will be
afforded to make the American people acquain-
ted with his claims. He was quite sure that Mr.
Law would stand the ordeal of being SO long be-
fore the people. Mr.. F. then went into discus
sion of the general principles of the American
party. E. w. Andrews, ESQ.,, also spoke much
to the same purpose. Mr.. F. W. Lambert who
las had some connection with Pacific Rail
road project, and who seemed to have "axe to
grind" or rather ''bone to pick" with the Sc
cretary of War. made few remarks. He said
be VAS Democrat. but he pitched into" Mr..

Hon. THOMAS EwBANK, ex-Commissioner Of
Patents, communicates TO the National IntslH
genesr some interesting information in regard TO
recent discoveries in the excavation Of Peruvian
tumuh. The information was received by Mr.,
Ewbank from w. w. Evans, engineer Of tho A
RIGA and Tacna railroad in Peru. Mr.. Evans states
that in making excavations for the railroad at
africa hundreds of graves are demolishedin which
are numerous Indian relics. The excavations
are seventy feet deep and the soil is loose sand.
Among other interesting relics. an Indian was
started out of his resting place rolled up in a
shroud Of gold. Before Mr.. Evans had knowl
edge of the incident the workmen had cut up this
magnificent winding sheet and divided it among
themselves. With some difficulty he obtained
fragment. and dispatched ito Mr.. Ewbank. Mr..
Evans notices as remarkable fact that of hun
dress Of Indian skulls which he has examined not
one has a decayed tooth. Mr.. Ewbank says the
weight of the entire shroud must have been eight
or nine pounds. and had it been preserved would
have been the finest specimen of sheet gold that
