A large burial-mound in Salt Lake
City was lately opened in railroad
cutting. The Salt Lake City Ne,os
says.
Officer B. y. Hampton brought a
gunny sack full Of boxes, fragments
of pottery, flint arrow heads, pieces
of sulphur, and a species of brick,
to our Office this morning, which
had just been dug up by the men
engaged in leveling the ground
A long row of fireplaces were dis.
covered yesterday; two or three
moro found today; and the bones
which he brought were those of a
skeleton, which was found in o sit
ting posture, with its chin resting
on its breast, near one of the fire.
places. The mound, which was q
very large one for this country, seems
to have been formed by the remains
Of the dead scarcely a shovelfal can
be moved without disturbing bones.
The skeleton was that of large
man, larger than the present Utah
Indians. The skull was tolerable
large, resembling in shape the usual
Indian type; and the teeth were all
sound, and were those of q young
man.

SHORT ANDLONG STREET DRESS
ES.

Gail Hamilton writes in Hqrbey-'s Ba-
gar
Ely swiftly round, ye wheels Of time,
and bring the day when society shall
have settled upon some general street
dress, simple, graceful, convenient and
unchanging, and shall leave to individ-
ual taste only choice of material, color,
and subordinate details. Then you
shall not have to alter except to freshen.
Then you shall be pointed or rounded
or squared according to your liking, and
shall stay so. Then you shall not spend
your time in pulling off last years satin,
or your money in putting on this year
velvet, but satin-to borrow PlNch'S wit
shall be sat in till it is frayed out of
existence.
But even as things are we are very
comfortable. l have thought, indeed,
that We were verging towards the mil
lennium of dress. Barring the excess of
trimming, It seems to me there never
could have been a time when dress was
more favorable to women than it is now.
With rubber boots and waterproof for
storms, with light, picturesque hats, with
small, short skirts and sleeved over-gar-
ments, and breath permitting bodices,
and styles so various that scarcely any
thing is strikingly questionable, what
doth hinder that a woman should eat
and drink, and walk and be merry ?
Newspaper people. indeed, talk Of a
dress reform; but there shall no reform
be given them save the gradual reform
/ have suggested, and that will come
and only as we slowly
gain more cultivation and higher and
finer life. Our dress now is fully up to
our social life.
"And here come the costumers, and
Haunt long skirts in our faces once more. /
Do blame the costumers ? No I. They !
have their living to get, and must invent |
or select continually. But if the women !
Of this country, having once tasted the
freedom of short dresses, shall be mean
spirited enough to go into long ones
again at the dictate Of any costumer un-
der the sun, they have themselves and
nobody else to blame. A pretty thing
L viii be for them to talk about making
avs, if they have not sense enough
and spirit to keep out of the mud A
Inc thing to be republican sovereign
when you have not otindependence enough
o resist the fiat Of foreign tyrant as to
he cut of your gown For here is no
question of thinking or not thinking
about your dress. You can walk lust as
veil with three flounces as with none
1ut long dress interferes with the en-
'rgies, the activities, the safety and the
health Of every day. A long dress in
he street means Inconvenience, untidl-
less, discomfort, waste, incidence, re-
preston, cramped muscles, subordlna-
ion and slavery.

Which I wish ca remark
And my language is plain
That for ways thai are DARK
And for tricks that arr vain,
The heather Chlnee Is Peculiar
Which the same would rise to explain
Al sin was his name,
And shall not deny
In regard tr the same
What that name might imply:
But his smile was pensive and child-like,
As frequent remarked TO Biu Nye.
II was August the third,
And quite soft was the skies;
Which It might be Inferred
That An sin was likewise
Yet he played IL that day upon William
And me IN way despise-
Which we had a small game,
And All sin Jstok a hand

But he smiled as he sat by the table,
With the smile that was chiId-Iike and
bland.
Yet the cards they were stocked
In way that grieve,
And my feelings were shocked
AT the state OF Nyeis sleeve:
W hieh was stuffed full Of aces and bowers,
And the same with intent to deceive.
But the hands that were played
By that heaGhen Chinee
And the points that he made
Were quite frightfuI to see
Till at last he put down a right bower,
Hhieh the same Nye had dealt unto
me.
Then looked up at Nye,
And he gazed upon me:
And he rose with a sigh
And he said, 'sCau this be
We are ruined by Chinese cheap labor
And he went for that heather Chfnee
In the scene that ensued,

But the floor il Was streWed

With the cards that All Sin had been hid

In his sleeves which were long,
He had twenty-four packs

The letters and papers of Gen. Ar
thur St. Clair, of the Revolutionary

ly bound in four volumes, and arranged
in chronological order Besides these
are some thousands of fragments of re-
ceipts, ETC., which are not of much his

valuable autographs. They are pur-

THE ATLANTA CAMPAIGN.

At the late reunion and banquet of
the Army of the Cumberland held at
Cleveland, Ohio, General Sherman re-
sponded to the toast From Chattanooga
to Atlanta-One Hundred Days Under
Fire" AS his speech was delivered at
late hour, the reports are quite imper-
feet. We quote from the Herald:
II well remember that morning in
May when over the telegraph was fash
ed to me the order for the Army to
move. We advanced in three armies,
bearing directly down upon Joe John
stOn, at Dalton. We all remember when
we first saw upon those hills the first
blue puffs of smoke from the rifles of
the skirmishers, followed by the boom
of the cannon, which told that the bat
tie had begun. From that time till the
last gun Of the campaign was fired, one
hundred and nineteen days, it was one
unceasing battle. Not only was the
rifle our reveille, but the cannon in the
distance soothed us to sleep at night,
and when the sound was hushed we
awoke from sleep. So long as the fir
ing OF the pickets told US that they were
awake we were secure, but when all was
quiet we felt disturbed and anxious.
Il wish had time, and it were aP-
propriate for me, to follow in detail the
of those armies throughout
the whole of that devious campaign, ov-
er mountains, across streams, and
through those dense woods and thickets.
/ have only time on this occasion to
pive YOU few points, but before / pro-
ceed further want to thank you for |
YOUR silence and attention.
1t was my hope and desire to crush |
the army Of Johnston by single blow
and while you Of the army of the Cum
oerland were climbing the rough sides
of Rocky Face, knew what you did |
not : that brave and well appointed /
army was moving to the right, upon
ar more important line than that you
occupied. / listened anxiously for the
boom of the guns of Mcpherson, who
had moved through Snake Creek Gap
and was advancing on Resacs, When

AnrnsrAN WELL IN NEBRASKA.

The labors Of the parties who have
been boring for the last eighteen months
in Lincoln, the capital city of Nebraska,
for salt water, were crowned with sue
cess. AT the depth Of 600 feet below
the surface, in a stratum Of sandstone, a
lead of the great subterranean sea of
salt water was struck, and the briny tor
rent came struggling up around the
augur and shot into the air some eight
or ten feet. It has since flowed strongly
and steadily, and with great force and
strength, forming a briny riv.
ulet. 1t is believed by experts who have
seen the flow, that when the augur is
withdrawn and tubing inserted. a stream
Of water will be projected from the well
to the hight of ffty feet, making the
most magnificent artesian well Of salt
water in the world.

INTERPRETING TO PRINTERS AND

To he Editor OF he Cincinnati Gazette,
1t has been the practice of the prin-
ters, of this city. for some time past, to
enclose handbills accompanied by read
ing matter in their papers. Complaint
was made to the Postmaster of Circle
vile, by the Postmaster of Lancaster,
that this was a violation or the laws and
regulations Of the department, subject
ing the offenders to legal punishment
The printers here claimed that these
alleged handbills were Supplements, -
and as such entitled to be folded in
their papers and sent free.
In order to decide this question, l
stated the position of the publishers
here. and appealed to the Ist Assistant
Postmaster General for an authoritative
decision on the matter. He replied as
