CHIRIQUI IMAGEs.-We have had the
pleasure of examining quantity of gold
received by DR.. j. C. Aver & Co., from
Honduras, in payment for their medicines,
which are extensively sold throughout
Central America. Among massive crosses,
bracelets, and chains, are the rude images
which have been taken from the graves of
the Chiriqui chiefs-birds, turtles, ser
penis, bugs, and reptiles done in solid gold.
They carry us back beyond historic times,
to periods and places where barbarism
reigned supreme. They seem to come
here now in mute appeals from the winding
sheets of their ancestors, to ask for the
simple Indians in the mountains, medical
protection from cultivated skill, against
diseases which gather them up in too early
graves. Ignorant and unlettered as they
are, they have learned of the white man
enough to know where to apply for relief,
and what will bring it. Our well known
townsmen above named inform us that they
require their remittances from foreign
countries now to be made in silver and
gold.-Lo,peH Massachusetts, Sentinel.

a poor French girl a number of years since,
and although they have not suffered for the
necessaries of life, they have had to work
hard for what they got. A few days ago,
however, Mrs. Taylor was quite surprised
on learning that an uncle of hers had died
in France, leaving her fortune OF thirty
thousand dollars in gold.
