A Mexican Grotto.

Among the recent discoveries OF
ancient ruins in Mexicois that Of an
arti6cially executed grotto, fifteen
miles from, Tancitaro, in the stGte Of
Michoacan. The grotto is represented
to be, of immense depth and vast ex-
tent; the remains of walls and arched
corridors are still to be seen, and
many curious specimens of the hadi-
work Of IAN unknown race has. been
brought from this subterranean pal
Two citizens of a neighboring village
recently penetrated into the cavern
ous depth of the grotto and lost their
way. Three days and nights were
spent in wandering through the laba-
rynthine passages Of this place before
they found an outlet from their
strange imprisonment. Subsequent
to this competent persons made a
more thorough examination Of the
grotto, when the fact that at some
unknown period in the past it mad
been shaped by human skill, and wall
ed in on every side by human hands,
was revealed. 1t is q dark labyrinth,
surprising in extent ard intricacy
the fabled one constructed by D9da-
lus. Tie walls are of masonry, and
the passage ways, which connect the
chambers, are arGhed over with stone.
These evidences Of human skill and
cortrivance lead to the supposition
that it is tho work of an aboriginal
race which long ago pcrished.

Early Days In Tennessee. ],

aWhen lady went to Dover or
Palmyra, our commercial cities 5n.
those days, and bought acalico dress, IS 8
says an exchange, speaking CT early
days in Tennessee, it aronsed and exS
cited the whole community moro than
the killing of bear caughe iii the
.cow.pen, which was frequent occur
renee. When a calico dress was
purchased, the news spread ikc wild
fire. 1t was narrated abroad that
such one had purchased q calico
dress. In those days we had our sls
gar-camps, and made our own sugar;
coffee was bought at our commercial
cities, and used only on Sundays;
Milk, the best and most healthy beV-ss
erage in the world, was used daily,
and the rose bloomed and played upon
every girls cheek. There were no
caloneI,doctors' bills to pay. They.
are worthy and useful profession
of the present day. We had meeting
houses in those days, rnade of logs
and clapboards. We called it going
to meeting. The elegant phrase now
is to attend church, and to go IN
buggies and carriages. We walked
from three to FIVE miles in going to-
meeting, playing with the girls alt
the way. | have seen from fifty to-.
one hundred ladies walking barefoot
ed to meeting, carrying their shoes
