A DISCOVERY AT BUTTE.

A Curious Copper Relic Found While
Digging for Pure Water.
While digging a we'll in the western part
of the city a few days since a curious relic
was discovered which, if the Interpretation
of the inscription is correct, conclusively
proves that this country was known long
before the time Of Columbus. and was COL
onized during as remote q period as that of
the Roman empire, says the Miner.
The relic is of copper in the form Of a
serpent, to which q portion of some blue
textile fabric has evidently been attached.
The inscription. which time has nearly
obliterated, after much patient investiQa-
ton was found to read as follows: ANA
CON DAFO ri HECA PITAL. The finder
was much puzzled to deciphsr this insorip-
ton, as, although some OF the words were
in the Latin language, yet the whole lacked
that connection required to make intelli-
gent English. Happily he had in his pos
session a copy of a rare old work especially
devoted to ancient and OBSCURE inscrip.
tlons. On looking through the book the
following curious translation of the in
sorlption was found, together with a foot
note explaining more particularly the
reasons for its first introduction. These
are the words of the work itself:
1T 10 a we'll known fact among students
of Roman history, and is specially noted by
Gibbon in his Decline and Fall of the Ro-
man Empire that towards the latter days
of the empire the politics of the nation had
become very foul The electors not being
content with secretly selling themselves,
actually made a business of openly Offering
their votes for sale. At length it became
the practice during the progress of a cam

pulous to wear in public, pinned to the
