Remarkable Discovery.

A few days ago while some workmen were
excavating cellar in Polk township, Mon
roe county, Indiana, it appears they came to
what seemed to be solid ledge of rock
They then sat down to rest, when one of
them began IDLY to pick at an apparent ifs
sure, whereupon Llock Of stone, some two
feet square, disappeared into the ground
with dull, heavy and unnatural thump, :
The men we're, of course, greatly astonished,
but nevertheless set eagerly to work, and
after removing the earth remaining in the
pit, exposed chamber with ceiling six
feet high, and some eighteen by twenty-five
feet within the,walls The walls are Of sol
id neatly secured stone work, vieing with the
hest of modern masonry.
Ranged in rows, on neatly constructed
shelves, were twelve skeletons, each with
tomahawk and arrowhead by it's side ear
rings and bracelets of solid silver lying
where they were dropped, and piles of what
appeared to have been furs, in the centre of
the platform, each pile crumbling to dust
just as soon as exposed to the light. A
number Of T S, made Of hardened copper,
hardened a. :. refined equal to the best cast
steel, were found, and fresh discoveries are
constantly being made.--Aattooao (IH) DEM

Seeing the Sun at Midnight.

In July, 1865, Hon. j. Fl. Campbell
United States Minister to Norway, with a
party Of American gentlemen, went far
enough north to see the sun at midnight. -
It was in 60 degrees north latitude, and
they assembled cliff 1000 feet high above
the Arctic sea. The scene is thus described:
cit was late, but still sunlight. The Arctic
ocean stretched away in silent vastnes at our
feet; the sound of it's waves scarcely reached
our airy lookout; away in the north the
huge old sun swung low along the horison
like slow beat Of the pendulum in the tall
clock in our grandfather's parlor corner
We all stood silent looking at our watches
When both hands came together at ~, mid
night, the full, round orb hung triumphant
ly above the wave-a bridge of gold run
ming due north spangled the waters between
us and him. There he shone in silent mai
esty which knew no setting. We involun-
tarily took off our hats-no word was said
Combine, if you can, the most brilliant sun
set and sunrise you ever saw, and it's beau
ties will pale before the gorgeous coloring
which now lit up the ocean, heaven and
mountain. In half an hour the sun had
swung up perceptibly On its beat, the colors
changed to those of morning, a fresh breeze
rippled over the forid sea, one songster after
another piped up in the grove behind US
we had slid into another day."

READ AN Hour DAY-There was a lad
who, at fourteen, was apprentices 10 9 soap
boiler. One Of his resolutions was to read
an hour day, or at least at that rate, and
he had an old silver watch, left him by his
uncle, which he timed his reading by. He
stayed seven years with his master, and said
when he was twenty one he knew as much
as the young squire did. Now, let US see
how much time he had to read in seven years
at the rate of an hour each day It would
be 2, 555 hours, which, at the rate of eight
reading hours per day, would be equal tc
three hundred and nineteen days equal to forty
five weeks, equal 80 eleven months /; nearly
years reading. That time spent in treas
uring up useful knowledge would pile up {
very large store. I am sure it is worth try
ing for. Try what you can. Begin now
In after years you will look back upon tht
t.ssf as the most pleasant and profitable yor
ever performed.

IMPROVEMENT IN MIRRORS The manu-
f;lcture of looking glasses and mirrors by
coating with quicksilver, a protracted and
life-destroying process, is to be dispensed
with, according to report by NJ. Salvetal,
Of the Paris committee on chemical arts, by
a new invention, which is to work reyolu-
ton in the decorative art, in windows, all at
once The French are always about to do
something wonderful, and sometimes 90 it.
The present wonder is a glass atence trans
lucent and rejecting, SO that it may be a
window glass or looking glass or both, ac-
cording to position. It is prepared by coat
ing with mixture of.chloride of platinum,
essence Of lavender, and a dissolvent COM
posed Of litharge and a borate Of lead rs
other ingredients being then driven OFT by
heat, the platinum is firmly deposited IN an
attenuated film, presenting a brilliant reflect
ing surface against the glass, yet transmit
ting softencd and agreeable light. The
film is said to be perfectly fixed, and evident
ly may be applied for decorative purposes Il
endless forms, and with either the most deli
cate or gorgeous effect, while its durability
as against oxidation is Of the first order
Thus a plate window may be at the same
time mirror or it may be at once adorned
and shaded with the pattern of lace. cur
tain. which will show white towards tht
street, and enliven the interior with It's sot
brilliancy, OF the sides and effects may b

A Very Singular circumstance.

We were informed yesterday by seyera
responsible parties, of train of very singu-
lar events which have happened in the town
ship of Ersa, in this county, Of late, which
have led the people to believe that the devil,
or some other misguided soul, has left the
internal regions Of the damned to roam the
earth and perform such wonders to startle
the people Of that quiet neighborhood out of
their wits. We will relate one or two of
these mysterious affairs just as they were
told to us. About two years ago an old and
respectable citizen of that township, named
George Campbell, died. Some time before
his death he buried in the ground twenty
two hundred dollars in gold. This fact he
kept to himself; not one of his family or any
body else, knew anything aboutit. During
his sickness he became deranged and con-
tinued SO until he died. In settling the es-
tate search was made for the gold but it
could not be found. They knew it was bu-
ried in the ground, but the precise spot no
one knew, and the search was finally aban-
doned. Two or three weeks ago some one
conceived thexidea of consulting an old for
tune teller, living in the neighborhood named
Wornley. This idea was hooted at and
pronounced absurd but finally, out Of curl
osity, it was concluded to call upon the old
man and test his necromantic powers. After
detailing the circumstance to him he told
them where the gold was buried. They went
to the designated spot, and after digging
down two or three feet, sure enough the gold
was found. Several other persons who had
lost property, after Witnessing the ful6lment
of his predictions in this case, applied to him
to assist them in finding it, and in every case
the property was found. A young man
named Rerrick, lost a pocket-book while
blowing in field He sought the assistance
Of the old wizard, who took him to the very
spot where the pocket-book was lying. He
found it in the same condition as it was when
he lost it, some three or four weeks before.
Can such things be and come over us like a
summers cloud, and not excite our special
wonder Il Quincy H., Herald.

A FAITHFUL Doe-A surgeon at Netley-
England, recently took long walk in the
neighborhood Of Southampton, accompanied
by his dog, fine Newfoundland. In the
evening he missed some letters from his coat
pocket and his dog. The latter did not sur
prise him, as the animal often wandered
from him in his walks,
The next day, annoyed and puzzled at the
loss of his letters, he thought it possible he
might have drawn them out of his pocket
with his handkerchief during his previous
days walk. He resolved, therefore, to re-
peat the walk, for he might have dropped
the letters in an unfrequcnted path. About
four miles from the hospital he came sudden
ly upon his dog lying on the ground, with
the letters close by. The dog had laid by
the side Of the letters for sixteen hours

THE DISCIPLINE OF Sorrow If the block
Of marble that lies before the sculptor was
capable Of feeling, how would it deplore and
bemoan every stroke Of the hammer, chipping
off piece after piece Of substance. It would
deem it's lot pitiable one indeed. And yet
that hammer and chisel are Transforming that
rough and shapeless stone into form Of life,
grace and beauty Fit to adorn the palace of a
king.
So it is with ~ Our characters are like
unhewn blocks Of marble, rude, miss-shapen,
comparatively worthless. And God is sculp-
turing them into forms of divine symmetry
and beauty, that may forever illustrate to
the universe the power Of His grace. The
heavy block of adversely and The rasping
cares and petty annoyances of our daily life,
are but different parts Of the same divine and
loving process.
And shall we look simply at the hammer
and chisel, and forget or doubt the clarifying
work for which God is using them? Shall
we think only Of the chips which the blows
Of his presence strike from US, and overlook
the immortal characters which the Great
Sculptor is seeking thus to perfect for His
celestial temple.

IRON VS. GoLD.-When Andrew jackson
was President, member of Congress from
North Carolina told him that a gold mine
had been discovered in the district he repre-
scented. Jackson replied, it would be better
if it had been an iron mine" '.Why p
said the member. Because" said the
President, iron is more generally useful
than gold, and miners for precious metals
a more idle people than those who dig out
iron, for they depend on the value of what
thew find more than on their labor in pro-
curing it,"

Daniel Webster once paid the following
beautiful tribute to woman: MAY please
your honors, there is nothing upon this
earth that can compare with the faithful at
tachment of wife no creature who for the
object of her love is so indomitable, so per-
severing, so ready to suffer and to die. I'm
der the most depressing circumstances, wo-
mans weakness becomes mighty power, hel
timidity becomes fearless courage, all hel
shrinking and sinking passes away, and he,
spirit acquires the firmness Of marble-ada-
mantine irmness-when circumstances drive
her to put forth all her energies under tbs
inspiration Of her affections.
