road.

How does it happen that you stand

Public sentiment did it, sir knew

Il do, sir. The whirligig of time
has spun rs around in our proper
place, and our occupation is no longer

Of which I am an humble representa-.

M. Gambetta his lovely tow-path, as
it were, but welcome him with open
arms to our fold. 1 think he'll like
us, and the man of shreds and patches
backed out of the room, for the reason,
we think, that the front of his gar.

During the ten years ending Dec. 81,
1877, no fewer than l, ,159 persons were
killed in London and % $40 MANNED or
injured by vehicles of various descrip-
tions, the largest proportion of acci-
dents being caused by light carts, by
which 2l5 persons lost their lives, and
1872 were injured. Vans, although
responsible for a smaller number of
accidents-namely 1855 - caused as
many as 265 deaths. Cabs, omnibusses
and cars killed PA and injured no few.
er than 8,7l2 persons during the ten
years. Saddle horses occasioned the
death of % persons and injured 735
others, while one person was killed
and As were injured by velocipedes.
The police returns show an alarming
iucrease in the number of street acci-
dents year by year for whereas in 1858
there were l ,34S accidents. causing the
death of s3 persons, in 1877 the num-
ber of accidents registered was 1856, or

Bat Net tho Ordinary KinA-laAian
Relics Pound by Boys.
In the simmer of 1878 party of
boys, among whom were Henry Gull
YER, of Cuyahoga Falls. Melville
Combs, Of Cleveland, and others,
found q number of mounds, which they
imagined to be 'Indian graves in
Duncan's woods lying ON the west
borber of the village at tho Falls. The
boys dug into one of these mounds,
says the Reporter, and took out . num-
ber of articles. but owing perhaps to
feeling of guilt as possible grave rob-
bers,' they did not make the matter
public, and 1t has only recently been
discovered, and now by accident. T.
81. Lodge, of Silver Lake is an uncle
of Melville. A short time ago he found
q rusty gun-barrel propPing open the
door Of his hen house at the lake. and
upon inquiry of his son Ballard, ascer-
tanned that it had been given to the
latter by Melville. Subsequent inqui-
~ Of the latter developed the fact that
the boys dug into their Indian Grave'
until Melville's head was just about
level with the top, aud found the gun,
q number of stone arrow. heads, the
remains of powder-horn, some shot,
. broken tomahawk, aud the decayed
stock of the gun. This dropped on ss
they took the articles out of the hole.
They also state that q quantity Of
white stuff was found with the other
articles, but they did not take out any
of it and have no idea what it was.
Mr.. Lodge states that the gun barrel
is about 9 feet 8 inches in length, and
although the barrel is clogged with
something q few inches below tho
muzzle, and which he has thus far
been unable to remove, that 1t is evil
dently rifled and of calibre to carry
one hundred bullets to the pound. Mr..
Lodge is considerably interested in
the case aud intends to make q thor
ough excavation of the grave, if the
exact location can be ascertained. He
informs Us that stone arrow heads are
frequently picked up in different parts
of his farm at Silver Lake; and that
once while plo wing on Viii on Avenue
Cleveland, he turned up Al stone spear
heads varying from 81 to 9 inches in
! length, and cunieform shape. They
were found in locality which is be-
believed to have once been the site Of
. lake, aud Mr.. Lodges theory 10 that
they were upset from an Indian's ca
moo and the soil covering them was
the accumulated sediment Of many
