though her stockings may never appear
In public except on the clothes line, still
there is a popular feeling that they ought

out Of that we're TO come tho annexation

With regard to Cuttings case the sns'

might have been supposed that tho Ad'

No claim Of the Mexican State Of Chi.

But tho question lie, not whether that
claim is embodied in tho statutes Of Chi.

in any particular case in violation Of the
rights OF an American citizen and in
derogation Of the sovereignty Of the

Graves Found While Excavntlng for n Sew
BuIldIng-SOvol Combination.
Special CVrtspOudsrcc Of The IntsIIigHeer.
CLARxsDvRa, August l6.-Tho curiosity
of our towns people was considerably ex.
cited on Wednesday, morning by the
news that the men engaged in digging the
foundations Of tho Government building
had discovered the graves Of three per-
sons. A depth Of q little over six feet had
been reached when the first grave was
struck. TO all appearance It was that Of
man, and as was afterwards pronounced
by the physicians 10 be that OF an exceed
inply large man. The grave was seven
feet long and two feet and one-half across
at the elbow. The only remains found
were tho two tibia bones together with
some pieces oin pine coffin, nothing to
indicate who the occupant was or when
buried. Two feet further oil, another
and smaller grave was found evidently q
Child's, being but FIVE feet long and not
quite co deep US the other. Some nails
and screws were found in this one.
Further investigation revealed third
grave, but up TO tho present time 10 has
d OF been opened. The spot was visited
by two.thirds Of tho people OF Clatksburg
and the oldest inhabitant brought forward
and interviewed, without throwing any
light on tho subject. The graves, while
apparently deviating from It, are on di.
rect line east and west, and the unusual
depth and other circumstances indicate
they have lain undisturbed> for q great
number Of years.
For fifty years past tho ground was In

1t was stated by an old colored woman,
that the grandfather Of Colonel Hugus was

government buildings, and II is supposed
these are the graves Of his slaves.
