PREHISTORIC REMAINS.

On high bluff near the mouth OF the
Iowa river are some wonderful indian
mounds. On level with the surface OF the
ground are the remains of circular floor
made of baked clay and the trunks of trees
laid close together These floors are covers
ed with earth from two to six feet III depth,
and at the bottom are human bones OF ex-
traordinary size, copper axes and spikes
with handles of polished horn and petrlfe /
wood heavy stone hammers and sharp hint
knives, and images Of animals and BIRDS,
accurately carved and well polished and
made of hard reddish stone. The mound
builders evidently had better tools and were
far more industrious than the North Ameri-
can Indians

THE LATEST WONDER.

The readers of the Traveller have been
made acquainted with the wonderful inven-
ton of Prof. Bell, by which musical and 70
cal sounds can be adj have been sent over
the electric wires, but few if any are aware
of the wonderful results which are sure to
70 low these improvements in telegraphy.
A few nights ago Prof. Bell was in commu-
nication with Geographic opeator in New
York, and commenced experimenting with
one Of his inventions pertaining to the
transmission of musical sounds. He mate
use Of his phonetic organ and piayed the
tune Of "America," and asked the operator
in New York what he had heard.
II hear the tune Of America replied
New York ssgive us another"
Prof. Bell, then played "Auld Lang
Syne."
"What do you hear now!'
II hear the tune of Aud Lang Syne
With the full chorus, distinctly replied
New York.
Thus, the astounding discovery has beer
made that man can play upon musical In
struments in New York, New Orleans, o.
Paris, and be heard distinctly in Boston l
this can be done, why cannot distinguished
per formers execute the most artistic ane
beautiful music in Paris, and an audience
assemble in Music Hall, Boston to listen !

TEMPERATURE OF THE EARTH At DIFF
EERENI DEPTHS.

A commission Of the British Association
has for some years been engaged in collect
ing evidence in regard to the tempture Of
the earth at different depths and in different
regions By some of the observations, the
rule heretofore announced in regard to in
crease of temperature was corroborated,
namely, that which fxes it at one degree to
about fifty feet, in some instances varying a
little in excess or diminution. Attention
was called 70 the interest which would at
tacn to carefully prepared observations
made in the great astersain well near st.
Louis, which, as is known, reached the
depth of 3e43 feet. greatly exceeding that OF
any other we'll of the kind IN the world.
Unfortunately this well is blocked up at a
point comparatively near to the surface
and i, wonll involve great expense TO open
i, out again for the purpose OF prosecuting
specia! experiments. Mr.. Glashier, on the
same occasion, presented some remarks III
regard to the temperature OF the AIR at dit
ferent attitudes, and explained that although
in general the cold increases the higher We
ascend in the atmosphere, yet At some sea
sons at a certain distance from the earth
the temperature is higher instead Of lower
than at the surface furthermore, it was as
certained that at given elevations the Their
mometor indicated higher point at nigh
than by day; and he therefore considers tina
up to 1000 feet, the temperature may b.
occasionally higher instead of lower than
the ground.

the more recent race of men. and has moth
