In excavating Oak street culvert in the up
per part Of the city of Evansville on Tuesday
last, the workmen came to the remains of a
cabin eighteen feet below the surface of the
street. It had evidently been German habi-
tation, and that Of European. The disc very
suggests numerous interesting questions. 1t
does not appear possible that deposit of 90
or % feet Of earth can have been made on the
present site of the city since the first civilized
foot trod upon the banks of the Ohio at this
point. The age of some of the trees that for
merly stood upon the present surface would
almost preclude such supposition.
The Evansville journal says:
That the builders and occupiers of the cabin
were civilized men is proven by the auger
holes and pins-by the pegged soles and seams
of the boots, by the spinning wheel and alb
sence of Indian implements. Who were they,
and when did they erect their habitation
there? The date of the first settlement of Vim
cennes by Europeans is in, doubt, but it is
known to have been made before the year
170o-one hundred and sixty years ago. 1t is
possible that the spinning wheel, that now lies
in our sanctum, twirled to the moving foot Of
the busy housewife, and its hum was heard
among the trees before the bees made their
first music in the primeval forests here-and
these old boots, perhaps, made the first prints
of civilization along the levee now busy with
the operations of an extensive commerce.
