Joe Walker, the fam- ns mountaineer, who pass ed nearly through its center in the winter of 1S50. But little, therefore, is known regarding, ;ir, but that little is exceedingly interesting, and fills tbe mind with eager ness to know more. From Cap - . Walker Wi 1 ave gathered many particulars regard ing Ids celebrated trip, and the character of this mysterious laud, which have never be fore been brought to light. There is no lack of streams within it; the Rio Colorado Cluquito, or Little Red River, runs, entite- ly across it, about 100 miles to the North of i he Gila and almost parallel to it, and emp'ies into the Colorado. About 120 miles sttl! further North the San Juan fol lows exactly the same course as the Lit'le Red, arid empties into Grand River, the most important branch of the Colorado. cheerfully feeling within he* the* element of patriotism which inspirnd her, M well as your fotefathers, in the utterance of that deepful!, and clear sentiment.

The delusions be lieved in by the lunatics are manifold, and some of ihem are exceedingly singular. In the Asylum we saw a man who affirms that he is God. and who has covered sev eral sheets of paper with incoherent sen tences, which are designed as a Bible for the use of the whole world and the rest of mankind. 'The Empress of the East, West, North and South,’ here holds her court. ‘The Queen of the United States,’ who was crowned at Baltimore, daily dines on a most republican fare and in a most democratic manner; and although our banks, commerce and civil institutions are solely supported by her money, is without a shil ling and screptrele*s. Mothers of Queen Victoria are numerous at Blackwell’s Is land. Dr. Ranney says that there are now in the Asylum, an Emperor of the United States, an Emperor of France, a King of Scotland, Prince Albert, Napoleon II., the son of Sir Robert Peel, two young gallants —one engaged to a German Princess, and the other a King, and the husband of Mad emoiselle Jenny Lind—a great General and a Millionaire, who claims the power of in voking Genii from the spirit-world, to do his bidding.

It was located on a gentle declivity that sloped to wards Red River, and the lines of the stieets conld Ee distinctly traced, run ning regularly at tight angles with each other. The houses had all been built of stone, hut all had been reduced to ruins by the ac tion of some great heat, which had evidently passed over the whole country. It was no ordinary conflagration, bur must have been fierce furnace like blast of fire, similar to that issuing from a volcano, as the stones were all burnt,some ol them almost cinder ed, others glazed as if melted. This ap pearance was visible in every ruin he met with. A s’orm of fire seemed to have swept over the whole face of the country; and the inhabitants must have fallen before it.

Governor of said State. npo the Honorable Justices of the Inferior Courts 1 ot the several counties composing the Coweta Judicial District: A vacancy having occurred in the Judgeship of the ' o . Coweta Judicial District hy the resignation of the J ker, who, we may remark, is a most intel Hon Edward Y. Hill. I do hereby issue this_ my | |j gent and c J <l8e observer, far supeiior to ing was distinct, only the norrhern angle, with the walls fifteen or eighteen feet long, anil t-n feet high, was standing. These walls were constructed ol stone, well quar ried and built. All the south end of the build ing seemed to have melted to cinders, and and to have Rtink to a mere pile of tubbish. Even the rock on which it was built apjiear- ed to have been partially fused by the heat. Capt. Walker spent some time examining this interesting spot — he traced many of the streets a d the outlines of the houses but coulj find no other well standing—as often as he had seen ruins of this chatacter, he had never, until this occash n, discov ered any of the implements of the ancient people. Here lie fould a number of hand mills; similar to those still used by the Pueblos and the Mexican for grinding their corn. They were made of light porous rock, and consited of two p eces about two feet long, and ten inches wide, the one hollowed our, and the other made convex like a roller to fit the concavity. They were the only articles that had resis* led the heat. No metals of any kind were found. eStrwn all round might be seen numerous fragments of crockery, sometimes beauti fully carved, at others painted. This, how ever, was not peculiar to this spot, as he had seen antique pottery in every part of thec iun’rv, from the San "Juan to the Gila. Capt. Walker continued his journey, and noticed several more ruins a little off his route next day, but he could not slop to ex amine them. On this side of the Colorado, he has never seen any remains except of the present races. The Indians have no traditions relative to the ancient people that once thickly settled this r-’gion. They look with wonder upon these remains, but know nothing of their origin. Capt. Wal- Proclamation, requiring the duly au'horized officers of said Judicial District to hold an election in their respective counties on tbe first Monday in January, 1854, in manner and form as by law pointed out, to fill such vacancy, and that they make a return there of to this Department.

They must have had sheep, too, for the representation of that useful animal was found carved upon a piece of pottery. Lieut. Beale states that, on his first trip claim to the tender respect and almost idolatrous regard, with which, in this coun try especially, they are every where re ceived. They would he thereby losing a rich jewel, worth more than the simple privilege of casting a vote at the polls and joining in the phrenzied contests of party. There may be some points in which wo man’s powers may he extended—in certain delicate branches of medical practice upon the soft sex, females may properly be en gaged in the noble exercise of good but we deplore the day when the ornaments of the domestic circle, the sweet comforts of men under trials, shall he seen mixing their angelic elements in political stouggles and weakening the hi ly influence which they now exr-rt upon the rougher sex. It will he seen that Miss H. asserts her rights with an undying courage and spirit: To the Authorities of the City of Boston, [Mass..) and citizens generally. Harriot K. Hunt, Physician, a native and permanent resident of the city of Bos ton, and for many years a tax-payer there in' in making payment of her taxes for the coming year, protests again against the in justice of levying taxes without a right of representation. The present system of taxation is a serious wrong, a violation of justice, as well as a violation of republican ism. If of al! the women in Massachusetts, who are citizens, only ten felt this wrong, those ten should be redressed, but when nearly two thousand petitioners presented themselves, through their signatures, to your Cor.stitutional Convention, on this vita! question, it was “inexpedient” for the Convention to take any action in relation theieto. What woman of thought can “consent” to be governed (for that is the argument) under the present subversive party elements, that bring into office those who are to represent her? No reasonable or satisfactoiy answer has been given to women on this subject, only that man represented her, through fathers, husbands, brother, and sons. Your re monstrant has no such representation, nnd there are many in like situation. “State, county, and city tax;’ the former the ex pense of the Constitutional Convention, in which she had no voice, hut petition,) and how farcical that power of petition, when she can neither express assent nor dissent to its doings, but be unjustly taxed, and. like ad idiot, lunatic, or infant, be compelled to meet it. Of the “city tax’" one word. The inequality and unjustice of our Public School system, in having no High School for girls while our boys have both a Latin and High School, was spoken of in her last protest, and our privileged right of petition tested, by the voice of at least 2,700, tor such High School. The petition was duly presented last Spring, and whatever action may have taken place in the School Com mittee*, the public are ignorant; no High Schoo] for girls has as yet been organi zed. W ith these views which might be now fully carrred out, with the increase of her tax-bill, in consequence of your Constitu tional Convention, which can result in no permanent good, since the great central element or Justice, was by the Committee on our petitions winked into “expediency and no minority report, nor any act of the Convention vindicated or even recognized the right of woman, on the real bast* of representation'. Humanity. Thua dissatisfied with city expenditure*, the inequality of publice acbojl education. (sexulalizing education,) your remonstrant pays her taxes compulsorily, instead of betrothed to an English Lord, and every day waves her hankerchief to passing ships, supposing them to have been despatched by the English Sovereign, to convey her lover to our shores. In a class ambitious of wealth—the maniacal monetary class — there are five milionaries of great influence, one of whom owns the Asylum, two toe Island, and one is the proprietor of Wil- liamsburgh and New York. There is a class of devotees—two others fone a male, the other a female.) personate the son of God, and a woman who declares herself to be the sister of Pope Pius the Ninth, heriess of all the Russia*, Empress Queen of the Orient and of the Indies, East and West. If any particular topic engrosses the atten tion of the whole community, it is very likely to become connected with and to form a part of the delusion of the insane. At each ot the great Revolutions in France, a greater number than usual became insane, and in many cases the delusions seemed to be directly connected with the political ex citement. The effects of Millerism and Mormanism in our own country, illustrate the same principle. Attached to the Asy lum is a library of twelve hundred vol umes. They are much read by nearly all the inmates of the Institution. The best books are most in demand. In the selection of their books, the insane seem to be ac tuated by principles as opposite as those which actuate the sane in their respective actions - The majority of the lunatics act and talk foolishly, but judge their authors by a wise criterion—that of intrinsic merit. The majority of the sane, on the contrary, speak coherently and act with prudence, but bestow their hours often upon the most undeserving of the liter ary instructors and amusers of the people. We do not think that Ned Buntline would be popular at Blackwell’s Island; but we know that the v/ritings of Plutarch, of Brougham, and the modern Britti-h e*sayists—especially Kit North—the novels of Sir Walter Scott, and other classical productions, are con stantly read and asked for. The insane are very fond of newspaper literature. By an editor of a city journal, they are sup plied with about eighty exchanges every week—which are read with the greatest interest. In the Asylum are politicans of all factions and parties—Democrats and Whigs; Hunkers and Barnburners; Silver Grays and Woolly Heads, and animated Shells, both Hard and soft.” Spunk !—A couple who had lived togeth er for some years in seeming conientment, one day went out a fishing, and tied their boat hy a rope to a post in the wafer. All of a sudden the boat went floating down the stream, and a contest of words immediately arose as to the real cause of the parting of the lope. The wife said it roust have been cut with a scissors, but the husband, an un feeling old fogey, stoutly maintained that it was a knife that did the business. Scissors! said the wife—Knife! said the husband. Scissors! Knife, Scissors, Knife, said both but at last the husband losing bis temper, cried out— If you say scissors again, I’ll duck you. Scissors! said the wife, determined to hold out to the last. Away went the old woman into tbe water, and as she came up the first time, she bel lowed Scissoi8,’ at the top of her voice. The old man pushed her down again. Scis sors! sputtered she. in fainter tones, as she rose again, hut tbe old fellow bad her by tbe head, and plump she went down for the third time. Now she arose more slowly, and as the water logged form neared the sutface, having loat the power of articulation, yet determined never to give in, thurst her hand out of tbe water, and imitated, with the first and aetoni fingers, the opening and shutting of • scissors. The old man was then convinced that it was useless to try to fetter a woman’s speech.
