ANTIQUITIES AND PEACHES,

Master Howard Clinton Sayer, gen
uine -year-old Republican, of Le-
tart, last week presented us with bas-
ket of very fine peaches, and seven flint
darts. The peaches were such as young
Republicans everywhere ought to culti-
vate-sound as the political principles
they profess, and as grateful to the taste
as truth is to the unperverted mind
Thanks, Master Howard, for the luscious
peaches.
The darts were taken from mound
on the farm of Mr.. Z. Sayre, the father
of our yonug friend. About peck of
them were found in pile. They vary
in length, from two and half, to eight
inches, and in width from one to three
inches. Some of them are white, and
some black flint stone. Some were evi-
IDENTIFY intended as arrow heads, while
the larger ones were probably used by
very ancient "John Browns" to grace
the 'spike poles'' And who knows but
some unremembered Gov Wise, who
fourished in the days of the "Mound
Builders - may have been as badly
Scared by these "pike heads" as our
modern hero Of the Virginia ''Oystel
warp We can't read very accurately
these untranslatable memorials of the
olden times. But being assured that
there is nothing new under the sun, y
it may be safely assumed that the build
ers of these mounds, and the manufac-
turers Of these weapons, loved and hated
laughed and wept, married and were di-
vided, had their politicians and dema,
parties and factions-their Blu,
chanans, and Douglases, and Breckin.
idges-their secessionists and disunion.
lists, and "squatter sovereigns." We
suppose, too, they had some Lincolns
and genuine Republicans among them
but for the want of ''free schools" and
an independent press" the factions
formed a Breckenridge Bell-Everett
Douglas ''fusion,' from which resulted
very naturally the dissolution of theil
Union and general smash-up.
But all this is but matter of inference
We think there can be no doubt, how.
ever, that the Democracy" of those days
were in the ascendant, and thought, az
they do now in the purely Democratic
States, that letters were "incendiary,
and the ability to write, "incipient trea
son. for we find no inscriptions in these
mounds The ssirrepressible conflict
was, no doubt, "repressed," and undel
the shadowing wings of an earlier "Dree
Scott Decision" the Divine right of th'
strong to enslave the weak was fully es
tablished, and cold functionaries wer'
as much "astonished'' as our own i'm
maculate President, that "anybod,
should presume to doubt it.
We thank our young Republican
friend for his present Of these relics o
forgotten ages; and assure Governo
Wise that, although Master Howard ha

cause there are some medicines of real merit
