New Disco7eriel in Mammoth Cave.

Some months ago Prof. F. ". Putnam,
Of the Peabody Academy of Science, Sa-
lem, received an appointment on the
State Geological Survey Of the State Of
Kentucky and q few weeks ago left for
that locality to enter into an examination
of the rivers of that State and their inhab-
itnnts. The Directors Of the Peabody
Museum of archaeology at Cambridge,
learning Of Prot Putnam's expedition,
secured his services while absent to make
further Investigations in the department
.ot archaeology for tic benefit Of that IN
stitution, and when lie returned home he
brought with him many wonderful spec
linens from the Mammoth and other
caves OF Kentucky, and from other parts
of the State, which will be valuable ac-
.quisitions to the collections in both nam
ed departments Of science. In his cave
explorations lie entered caves and cham
$bers never before visited by scientists,
and many new discoveries We're made.
It has been asserted that all eyeless fish
in the waters Of the Mammoth Cave were
colorless, but this theory has been explo-
ded by the finding, by Prof. Putnam, of
:colored fish without eyes. Besides there
were found white fish with eyes. Cay
fish were also found, with and without
eyes. These are all new features to be
studied by naturalists. One new species
Of fish has also been obtained, and the
whole are now on exhibition at the Mu-
scum of the Peabody Academy, Salem.
Insects, crustaceans, ond other speci-
mems were found in great variety. In the
department OF archaeology, many skele
tons of human beings were found in the
caves, and in some of the chambers, new
.er before examined, footprints were dis
covered in the sandy floor, and mocca-
sins were found. Several burial places
and mounds were exumed, and valuable
relics obtained from them. In one Of
the graves examined nine skeletons were
found .-B Boston Globe. 8

even with this protection, they will not be
able to collect taxes and perform the funo-
tions of the government. The State gov
eminent has not the confidence or respect
of any portion of the community" Fur
ther on he says: ''If the expressions Of the
people are to be believed, and I do believe
them, there is very sincere desire to live
quietly under the protection of the consti-
tuition Of the United States and enjoy the
blessings of the national government; but
there is no Disgusting the fact that the pro-
lection afforded by the federal administra-
tion to the present State executive is the
eonse of bitter personal and political feeling
IN the breasts of nineteen twentieths of the
white inhabitants of the State"
IN forwarding this report, December 81
General Emory says: "FOr nearly two years
the condition of affairs has been very pre-
carious, and the State government has con-
stantly shown itself unable to cope with
the difficulties of the situation in which it
is placed. This state of things is daily
growing worse, and / commend the subject
to serious consideration. The mission of the
army, to keep peace without the power OF
removing causes which disturb, has, I
think, been carried as far as practicable,
and therefore respectfully recommend
that, it it can be done, the powers of the
military commander be greatly increased, or
some other measure be resoIted to, to OBJ
tain the desired end"
General Sherman makes the following in
dorsement:

Iprofees to have some knowledge Of tha

before the war, and several visits eince, but
