ARCHAEOLOGICAL DIsCovERY--We lear n
from the French papers that an impor rtant
ar chaolCgical discovery has just been mace
in the village of MAJ cell, Pas-de Calais.
1t appears from the account that some
workmen, in digging the foundation of
house, came upon quantity of human bones
and other remains. Information having
been given to M Palliad. project of the de-
partmcnt, further searches were made, and
the result was the discovery of two hundred
and thirty seven skeletons, ninety-one earth
en- vases, five of glass, twenty three lances,
nine javeins, eight hatchets, a shield, ten
short sabres or knives, four belt-plates,
twelve buckles, six ear rings, eight other
rings, two enameled glass-bead necklaces,
crystal ball, pair of scissors, two pair of
tweesers, four hair-pins. and two large vases
of gilt copper, all in a state of perfect preser-
vatiou.
Two of the glass vases have the same
form and color as modern hook glasses the
pottery. made of red. black, or brown earth,
is of various shapes, and had been ornament
ed with a chsel in it's soft state; the Jew
els and belt plate are of silver, Gelicately
chased the eardrops are composed Of silver
rings, to which are suspended drops set with
garnets the necklaces are of different col
oIs, the glass beads being enameled by pro-
cess now unknown. The arms are the most
curious portion of the antiquities. and show
that they belong to the period of the Frar ks.
The site of this cemetery is near a camp,
called in the neighborh0od after Caesar, but
which was still occupied in the fourth cen
tury. The skeletons are those of race of
men of tall stature, some measuring one
metre ninety two centimetres-six feet four
inches. Many of them had vase between
the feet. The search has so far only been
made over less than half an acre of ground !;
but the explorations are to be continued, and
it is expected that further developments of
an interesting character to antiquarians and
| scientific men in general will result.

A SINGULAR SPRING.-There is a.singular
spring at Farmingham, Mass, which is an
unfaiing barometer. 1t matters not what
the season of the year may be-in summer
or in winter, in wet weather, or in the time
of severe drought-all at once the water
comes pouring from this spring, often food
ing the intervale through which it is dischar-
ged and within thirty-six hours thereafter
a rainfall comes. During July and August
last, the springs steadily failed in the neigh
borhood. and this one among the number !;
on Sunday, the 18th of September, the dis
charge being unusually sluggish. The next
morning Monday it was pouring forth a
torreHt; but the sky still remained brassy,
and the heat intense, with no atmos pheric
indications of change of weather. Tues
day morning the overflow continued the
clouds had overcast the SKY, and at III A. NJ.
rain began to fall, which continued till p.
N. Wednesday morning, the spring was dis
charging about the same quantity of water
as on Monday. showing that it is not imme-
dlately affected by a copious shower.

A REMARKABLE INCIDENT "A few
evenings since, as freight train, behind
time, was passing Oak Hill Station, in
Scarborough, at speed of thirty miles an
hour, it struck against horse attached to
a sled which was crossing the track at the
time without driver. The sled was
smashed into kindling wood, and it was
supposed that the horse was instantly
killed, but the train sped on for some dis
tance, when the engineer looking out, saw
the horse staring at him from the cow
catcher, with puzzled look, as much as
to say, ''What is all this fuss about 3
The train was promptly stopped, and, it
was found that the horse had been picked
up by the cow>catcher and deposited on
the platform in front of the engine, where,
too much stunned or frightened to move,
be laid until lifted off, and was found to
be comparatively uninjured. He was led
back to his astonished owner, who stock
gazing at the wreck of his bob>sled and
wondering what had become of the animal.

The only acknowledged Uterine Tonic ard Fe

removing distractions, relieving pain and reg

Common Greg-shop Bitters,

Empty Bitter Bottles of various styles, can be
found around nlmoste every dwelling and cabin
throughout the land. Their taste is pleasant,
and are Advertised to cure almost every disease,

medicinal properties whatever. They are ~

Blooming Young Girls,

Aiddie-aged mstroDs, those st the critical period
and the aged grandmother, are all cured by the
use of our English Female Bitters, now prescri-
bed and used by physicians all over the country.
If you are troubled with falling of the womb,
attended with a sense eft weight and bearing
down pain in the back and side. and other at
tendant evils, English Female Ritters will give
entire relief.
Those at the "eurn o flife,' mothers after CON
~fnement, and all others male or female) who are
convalesceuts from any rrotractedo or debilitating
comp amt, who gain siren 9Th slowly, and whose
digestion il slow and imperfect, viii find these
Bitters the very thing their system demands. 1t

pure crimson blood c~oursing through its channels.

Death is at the Door.

In ali these complaints the system evidently
shows . want of red blood, and Mr.. Churchill, in
his work on Diseases of Females, says "Bear-
ing in mind that the blood is remarkably def
cient in red corpuscles, and the known property
of iron to correct this condition, theory suggests
it ss the most to be relied on, the best of which
is the Citrate" Citra.e of Iron enters largely
into the composition of English Female Bitters.
combined with powerful vegetable tonics of rare
qualities.
Among the mountains Of Tennessee and the
piney woods of Mississippi, is found q certain
hard and finty root, which has been in secret use
by some OLD midwives for many y ears, possessing
magic powers in regulating and restoring ali
females suffering with any affection of the womb.
This root We have obtained, ave it a fair test in
our practice and il is now one OF the principle
ingredients in these Bitters. Other powerful
uterine and general tonics also enter into its
composition. We also add Leptsndra or Black
root, Fufhcient to act upon the liver and keep the
DO wells open.

awhile it remained much the same, then rapidly
grew worse: appearing successfully on her hand
