probably noted with satisfaction that Mr.

Senate will make short work of IL by voting
II down promptly. O1ly political schemers
OF the feather dusIer" persuasion favor its

habit Of living In communities The earth

Of adobe; but, north Of tho Ohio, were probably
constructed Of timber, and their walls coated with
earth. In illustration OF this theory. Mr.. Morgan
exhibited plan Of luildingr adapted 10 the bank
works created by the Mound builders. and also
corresponding with the dwellings Of the Villages
Indians. The communal mode Of life was better
suited to warm than to q cool CLIMATE; hcnce Mr.
Morgan concludes that the Village 1ndinna who at.

Tho theory Of Mr.. Morgan Was supported by ad-
