RELICS OF THE MOUND BUILDERS.
ENhuming OF n Wonderful skeleton n,
lockwood.

The following communication was hand
ed Us yesterday BY friend direct iron
lockwood, Roane county-the famou
Roane Iron Company's growing yonus
city:
In making an excavation on the bank
of the river mt the lockwood landing few
days agoa human skeleton was exposed
| The burial case was earthenware of the
same kind or character as that found i'm the
mounds and along the river bottoms, From
this fact it Is reasonable to conclude that
the skeleton belonged to the race of Mound
Builders, as this kind of pottery is found
in all the mounds of the country, This
race was so far anterior to the Indian race
that their oldest traditions give no account
of them. The only way to determine the
time of their existence is by course of
reasoning somewhat indirect, yet, to my
mind, certain and conclusive.
Geological research has proven that this
continent was once an ocean bottom. When
upland it was perfectly barren and devoid
of any Vegetation. All the rain that fell
would, of course, run off rs from house
top and the water courses would be swollen
to immense proportions. The channel
would be washed out very wide by the i'm
mense tides that flowed through them,
Now when the land, by the action of the
atmosphere, freezing, &C., was pulverized
and vegetation began to cover it the rains
would be partially absorbed and the tide
would be proportlonately less. The veges
table mould carried off from the soil was
deposited along the bank forming the river
bottoms. These bottoms was the first in
habitable land. As we find no mounds or
other signs of the mound builders away
from these bottoms we may reasonably
conclude that they inhabitedthis country
when they could subsist only along the
water courses. Now, as we have abundant
proof that this country was capable of sup.
porting inhabitants many hundred wears
ago, we may conclude that this race was
very ancient, probably existing here when
eastern continent was the theater of the
wonderful works of Christ and his Apos-
ties.
The skeleton was five and one-half feet
long. The bones were large and heavy,
The arm bones were disproportionately
long. The right one was broken near the
shoulder and was probably the cause of
the individuals death. The most peculiar
feature about the formation of the skele-
ton was that the arm at the shoulder con-
Meeting a short strong bone that was con
nected firmly with the sixth joint of the
backbone counting from the head.
The head was small and round. From
the impressions in the soil the hair had
been thin and hung as low as the shoulders

COAL CREEK, Feb. 16, 1873.
EDITORS CHRONICLE: Our quiet little
mining village that's stuck down here on
Coal Creek, between Walden's Ridge and
the spurs of Cumberland Mountain, was
aroused by the cries of lady that had fall
en- in the stream. Her husband and her
self were crossing on some walk logs that
spans the stream. The lady had become
dizzy and into the stream she went The
water being very high she began to float
down the stream very rapidly aud her hus-
band went to her rescue, but being poor
swimmer could not do anything to relieve
his wife and also seemed to be in danger of
being drowned. By this time quite mum
Der of persons had gathered on the banks
and rescued them both from a watery
grave. The lady lost her shawl and sew
eral articles of clothing.
Our little village is improving steadily
New mines are being opened and more to
be opened the coming season.
We have three churches here, Welsh,
Methodist and cOlored Methodist, also the
foundation for Union Church, which will
be completed. the coming summer. This
one will be built entirely of stone.
