Indian Relics,

The Indian relics discovered by tn,
Rev. j. Goss in mound near Davenport
Iowa, continue to evoke discussion
They consist of tablets of dark coloref
slate, with pictorial engravings, one Of
which represents q funeral pyre. or ,
sacrifice. around which a dance ,s taking
place; twenty-five stars. and the sun and
moon are also shown, and there are i've
lines OF written language in unknown
characters. On the reverse Of the tablet
which is rather less than foot square and
about l l 2 inches thick, there ale sketch.
es OF men, several quadrupeds (includinp
two mastodons), some birds and trees,
Another tablet has dial with tour con-
centric circles, within which are marked
the four cardinal points and twelve eoui-
distant characters supposed to represent
the signs of the Zodiac. There is no
doubt that these relics were found along
with human remains, among layers Of
shell, 10 a mound. If put there for the
purpose of imposture, they have been
skillfully placed. All authorities agree
that If the relics are genuine they are bv
lar the most important archaeological
treasures yet found - this country.
