Next to the common articles of daily food,
fruits &c, there is nothing in more universal use
than candies; and unhappily there is nothing
made so subject TO adultera;ion as they are by
the adoption of the use OF deleteriOus substances
destructive to health. An exposure Of these
authorizations and their perncious effects was re
Gently made in this paper, which cused much
speculation, ana no doubt warned many that the
only safe use to be made Of candies and contec-
tons was TO obtain those known TO be pure. The
knowledge that they are thus pure is what has
made Southmayd's candies so popular, and what
has so enhanced his business as to encourage
him to build a splendid marble edifce in Temple

American Archaeology.

The handsome endowment by Mr..
Peabody Of Harvard College with $780,
900 for museum aud protcssorship Of
american archaeology and ethnology is,
perhaps, one Of the most enlightened
and wise bestowmcnts Of this truly wise,
wealthy and benevolent gentleman.--
American archaeology is study which
has but few votarics, yet il is interest
ing and may be mudo valuable, and af-
ford mankind much Instructive iutor-
nation in relation TO the past history Of
our land. The money for these purpo-
scs is left by Mr.. Peabody to seven
trustees named, and their successors are

Historical Society, Of the Essex Insti-
tute, of the American Antiquarian So
cicty. the American Academy Of Arts
aud Sciences. and of the Boston Natu-
raj History Society, for the time being,

In the letter rendering this sum, Mr..
Peabody says be wishes only TO make
two suggestions ist, That ms the an

Il we'll known that Professor Agassiz
has pronounced this emphatically the
old continent, aud from the fishes in its
interior lakes, he considers that it has
been less disturbed BY geologic changes
than that Of Europe for loager period.
The professor has long proclaimed that
he has found proolso the existence of q
race much more ancient than has been
commonly supposed The indications
are that the country was the dwelling
place of people different in many par
iieulars from the Indians who we're
found In possession at the time Of the
European discovery aud settlement, -
These men were apparently more ciyiliz-
ed than the Indians are remains

hshcd by Sir Charles Lyoll has caused
many neglected facts to be brought to
light. but there has, thus far, been no
fund in this country 70 pay tho eSpen-
scs Of explorations at proper localities
Through Mr. Peabody wise muniii-
ceucc, il is probable that early steps
will be taken for the investigation aud
naturalization Of all facts bearing on
this great scientific question .-Bah. San.
