The Discovery Of Rims of an Am-
ctent Greciom Ciy.-We copied, few days
s'"ce, brief paragraph from the English
papers Of the discovery of the ruins of a
Grecian city, which the British Government
had taken measures to have explored. We
have received from our Syrian correspon-
dent letter giving full particulars of the
discoveries and explorations, so far as they
lave progressed, which arc of the most in
tcrcsting character. The city was SITUATED
on the peninsula of the Crimc:. It's ruins
indicated its original opuIcnce and spIcndor
Human skeletons and skeletons of horses
have already been found. Near the site of
the city are immense tumuE, or artificial
mounds OF earth, somewhat like those in the
west OF our own country. Their size and
lnagnhccnce awaken anlaZement for the
wealth and power OF the people who con-
*tructed them. Tradition states that the
tumuli were erected over the remains Of the
kings and ruler OF this Greek colony. They
are oI all dimensions, ranging from ten TO
ahrcc hundred feet in circumference, and
from five TO one hundred and tittv feet in
height. Specimens Of the highest Grccian
art have been found in them, such as sculp-
tnres, 1t 'uscan vases, glass vessels rem: r',;-
die for 'ightness, carved ivory, coins of the
most perfect finish, and trinkcts vicinr will,
the skill of the best mmIcrn workmen-
One ;umuIus was so large that DIR. McPher-
son devoted two whole months to explore it.
But the most astonishing monuments of
early wealth are found ON Mons Mithri,iatcs,
.hc whole of which hill, from its base 20 its
summit, and the space extending from it to
the distance of three miles, are composed of
broken pottery and debris of the depth Of
from ten TO even Il hundred feet over the |
natural clay hill. In Il future issue, we shall |
