NEw YoRS, December THE events OF the
week In financial circles were important in
several respects. The Money market was
more active at intervals, with an advance in
rates Of interest. Borrowers on call were
supplied at ~ to 8 per Cent, with the bulk Of
business at 3ai PEE cent The sudden wiping
out Of aRe,thirli Of the surplus reserve OF the
hanks this week had an unfavorable influence
on the Stock Exchange, Us it was hoped that
the banks would be In stronger instead OF
weaker position to aid resumption. The for.
eign gnexchangesw were frMer and advanced u frac.

pecIally for 1855 but the market was firIneI

Of last week. Railway aud miscellaneous

day morning Lewis Ofutt, farmer living
five miles west OF this place, discovered
that on the previous night large hole had
been dug into an old Indian mound located
on his farm. This, in connection with an
ancient tradition associating hidden treas.
ure with the mound, prompted him to pro-
cure assistance and continue the digging.
At depth OF ten feet he encountered a
solid bed OF ashes and a few pointed cop
per rods, several inchesI in length. Two
feet below this, at a depth Of twelve feet
from the surface, he unearthed numerous
scattered human bones and two entire
skeletons lying side by side. In close
proximity to these were found many spe-
cimens OF copper earrings and bracelets
OF very large size and peculiar construc-
ton; also an assortment OF queer beads
and a couple OF teeth, each OF which was
almost three inches in length, one inch in
diameter, and bore evidence OF having
officiated as masticators for hugh animal
at some period. The skeletons were those
OF exceedingly tall people, as one Of the
thigh-bones measured almost thirty inches
in length, while the skull lacked but little
OF being twice as large as that OF an ordi.
nary man. The remains are supposed to
be ethose OF Indians. The mound is situated
on perfectly level ground-covers an acre
and knowledge of its existence can be
traced back one hundred years; but how
long before that it had been built by abo'
rigines, mound builders or the race who
then inhabited this country, no mortal
can tell; but one thing is certain, these
"dead mems bones" fully established the
fact that giants" lived in those days. Mr.
0ffutt exhibited some of the relics in town
to-day, and they mystifed the "oldest In.
habitant." The country is fully aroused
and next week Mr.. 0tfutt and his neigh
bors will level the mound and bring to
light the hidden mysteries now inurned
beneath it.
