ALLEGED ANCIENT RUINSIN THE
UNITED STATES.

A new stimulus is likely to be given to
American archaeology, by discovery al.
legged to have been made some ninety miles
north east Of Fort Stanton, long account
OF which has just appeared in the Fort
Smith (Ark.) Times:
"The plain upon which lie the massive
relics of gorgeous temples and magnii-
cent halls, Slopes gradually toward the riv.

gurgling stream of purest water, that not
only sustains rich vegetation, but per-

the thousands who once inhabited this
present wilderness. The city was proba-
bly, built by warlike race, as it is quad
rangular and arranged with skill, to afford
the highest protection against an exterior
foe, many Of the buildings on tie outer
line being pierced with loophoIes, as
though calculated for the use of weapons.
Several of the buildings are of vast size,
and built of massive blocks Of dark gran

brought to their present condition bv a
vast amount Of labor. There are the ruins
of three noble ediGces, each presenting

CORN SONG.
BY JOHN G. WHITTIER.

Heap high the farmers wintry board
Heap high the golden corn
No richer gift has autumn poured
From out her lavish horn
Let other lands, exulting, CLEAN
The apple from the pine,
The orange from the glossy green,
The cluster from the vine.
We better love the hardy gift
Our rugged wales bcstow,
To cheer US when the storm shall drift
Our harvest fields with snow.
Through wales Of grass, and meads OF flower.
Our plows their burrows made,
While DER the hills the sun and showers
Of changeful April played.
We dropped the seed o'er hill and plain,
Beneath the sun of May,
Aud frightened from our sprouting grain
The robber crows away.
All through the long bright days of June,
Its leaves grew bright and fair,
And waved in hot midsummer's noon,
Its soft and yellow hair.
And now, with Autumn's moonlit ewes,
Its harvest time has come,
We pluck away its frosted leaves,
And bear the treasure home.
There richer than the tabled gifts
Arpollo showered Of old,
Fair hands the broken grain shall elf,
And knead its meal Of gold.
Let vapid idlers loll in silk,
Around their costly board;
Give Us the bowl of samp and milk,
By homespun beauty poured,
Whore'cr the vile old kitchen hearth
Sends up its smoky Curls,
Who will not thank the kindly earth,
And bless the farmer girls.
Then shame on all the proud and vain,
Whose folly laughs to scorn
The blessings Of cur hardy grain,
Our wealth Of golden corn.
And let the good old crop adorn
The hills our fathers trud
Still let us for His golden corn,
Send up our thanks TO God

Temperance.

!, temperance.
On Monday night we had the pleasure of
hearing Mr.. SINCLAIR, Of Scotland, in a
most impressive address on Temperance, at
the new church. The address was accom-
panied by an exhibition Of large and very
well executed paintings illustrative Of the
various phases in domestic life where liquor
is used, and where it is not The speaker
was very plain, very pointed, and very con-
vincing, but his paintings were far more el-
oquent than all the words which could be
used on the subject His travels over the
West cannot fail to be immensely beneficial
but the difficulty is, that those whom he
desires to reach do n usually want to pay
to be reproved. If the reformers of vii
lagc would club together and hire the *
hioitor for few evenings and make it free,
much more good could be done.
Mr.. SINCLAIR charmed all our Sunday
School scholars, and Teachers, by an ad-
dress to them on last Sabbath. lie is said
to be the best living Sunday School talkcr
in America, and from his easy familiar style
Of illustration, we think he merits the dis
tinction. We thought friend CHEEKY, of
Whitewater, was some, but we learn from
C. himself, that the Scotchman is unap-
proachable.

AcCeASiOllR

Accessions
A gentleman informs that some industr
GUS dispenser of party froth was holding
forth in Fayettc county, last week, that ole
Clayton would show Republican gain in
November of 500! This would make a
majority Of 70l, as compared with the las,
Gubernatorial vote.
We do not profess to know how Clayton
county will show up this year, but if she
goes for the Republicans bya majority Of
200, it will disappoint some of our most
careful estimators. We know of many
gains and a few losses also, to our side. 1t
is probable that one party does not know so
well what it is losing as what it is gaining,
because those who desert do not usually
tell their old friends their intentions, while
they are quite apt to inform their new allies
Of the fact. Our gains thus far known,
wonld enable us to carry Clayton county
against the last vote, and we have actually
heard Of but .1fce loss in the county. Our
nett profits, however, can best be learned
en- election day, and not wishing to miscad
either friend or foe, VIC prefer to wave the
prophetic power usually accorded to editors
and await the fact
That Mr.. Cole will be elected in the LIST
District, we have no doubt whatever. Bets
are freely offered by the Democrats, and
they are not taken. Democratic publishers
are offering their papers to new subscribers,
the payment conditioned on Coles election.
The District was close before and there
seems to be general admission that Curtis
has been much more windy than useful in
Congress.
The Cd District is claimed largely by our
acisest opponents, but our correspondence
from the southern part of it give us such
cheering accounts of important and numer-
Gus changes, from Iowa City to the Bluffs
and we have so much faith in the intelli-
gence of the people and the superior ability
of Mr.. Samuels, that we will bet gallon of
lager Vandevcr will come out second best.
1t is so common in life that 1.-THE wish is
father to the thought''-and we claim no
exception from the frailty-that we always
feel reluctant to put down positive opinion
as to any unknown result Betting is not
nice at any time, and we remember too WV
idly the curses Greeley and others got in
1856, to advise our friends thatit is safe to
bet on any result except that Abraham Lin
coin will not be the next President of the
United States.
