BY and. b. freeman. the mound builders. Startling Discoveries Made to/ the Eminent Prof. Jolg. Prof. Jolg, the noted archaeologist, ffho has for years past been closely studying the history of the ancient mound builders, traces of whose hand" ivork are to be found all over the Uni* ted States, has recently made some won derful discoveries. Of late years the professor has been giving the mound system in his native country a thorough investigation, and during the present season he has been tracing up a chain of mounds that ex*, tend across the country, from the north west corner to the so itneast corner.— He has explored the mounds in several townships, and is at presont at work in the township in which ho resides, and but a few miles from home. As the professor was returning home the other night from his daily explor ing trip he suddenly saw a hitherto un discovered mound looming up before him. It was a moonlight night. lie could see that tho mound was high and well preserved. It was the most pom feet specimen ho had ever seen. The hand of time had touched it lightly.— Its pristine symmetry was unmarred. Jolg viewed the mound in speechless admiration. Ilia enthusiasm was aroused to the highest pitch, and, dis encumbering himself of his load of in struments, of which he always carries a great number, he set to work with his spado to make an excavation in the mound. What cared ho then for food or lod® ging ? Nothing 1 Was not here a sub ject worthy his attention ? Perhaps within its deep recesses was hidden the key that would unlook the mystery sur rounding a once powerful race of beings whoße histoiy is lost in the obscurity of centuries ; htings whoae time perhaps antedated that of the pyramid builders of Egypt. He worked rapidly and soon reached a r depth of three or four feet, when his spade struok something solid. Caro fully removing the earth he looked at the obstacle that buried his progress, and thumped upon it with his stone hammer. It gave back a dull hollow ■ound beneath tho blow. “Boards, by Jupiter ! and as perfect ly saved as thoso of modern times. Ah! those mysteiious mound builders were no doubt much more advanced in the arts ami sciences than we have sup posed. By the sound these boards make there must be a vast cavern be. low them. Perhaps tho very vault con, taining treasures of the hundiwork of those mysterious people, or a collection o!' hieroglypics thut will shed impor tant light upon their history,” muttered the professor. Taking up his hand-axe he began to cut his way through and Boon removed o piece of one of the boards and peer ed through the opening into the depths below. The vault was shroudod in a dense impenetrable gloom that his eyes ould Mot pieroe. Dropping a Btone into the vault ho soon heard it strike tho bottom. Evidently the cavern was but ten or twelve feet deep, and he determined to descend into it and explore it. Taking a rope from the pouch he always car ries to collect goological specimens in, he tied one end to a convenient tree and dropped the othr into the vau't. Then lighting a durk lantern—al ways a part of his equipment —he de scended the rope into the gloomy depths of tho mound. He sron reached the bottom. Ascertaining that his footing was secure he turned the slide of his lantern and looked around. The vault was about twelve by eighteen foot in size. Various articles of stone and earthenware were scattered about on the floor and arranged on shelves along the walls. “Ah ! this is indeed glorious,” he muttered ; “how well am I repaid for all my years of toil. These articles are indeed in a wonderful state of pres ervation ; just as perfect as when last used by their owners, perhaps thou sands of years ago. Hermetically seal* ed jars, too, what can these contain ? Money? but this lid is bard to re move. “The countless ages that have passed over it have left it firmly imbedded in its place. Powers of Jove ! these ber„ ties are as fresh and perfect as though put up but yesterday. “Ah ! what is this machine ?” as his eye fell upon something that greatly resembled a modern sausage-grinder.— “This is doubtless something they used in their funeral rites. Perhaps the in strument they used for crushing tho ykulls of tho infants that we know they were in tho habit of sacrificing at tho burial of their chiefs. I must take it with mo and discover its use if possi ble. “And here—O most superlatively wondrous wonder of ail wonders ! is a printed paper ! These printed charac ters have a half familiar look, but I can not decipher them.” (The fact is that it was a Welsh pa, per; a copy of the Y Wasg. The pro fessor can read all languages, ancient and modern, except Welsh.) “Let me see what is in this tin ves sel. Bread 1 as I live, and made from wheaten flour at that—excellently well made ; batter than what we get in mod ern times. Ah ! what do these crootes contain? Powers above! milk, cow’s milk ! and fresh and sweet as though drawn from the oow but yosterday.” The professor gat down and began to eat a luach. of bread and milk, talking as he ate. “Wonder of wonders ! Here I am lunching of the food prepared by a race of people who have been extinct for thousands of years. Oh, but it is a rare honor. Prof. Schliemann him self might well envy me this hour.” He examined the contents of the mound for some time longer, and then selecting such relics as he wished to take home with him that night he fastened the rope to them, c ambered out of the vault, drew up the rope and went trudging homeward. The next morning by daylight he had his horse harnessed to his buggy, and was driving rapidly toward the place of his adventures the night be fore The mound is situated on the premises of Mr. J. A. Eleherty, and as the professor drove up he found that individual out in his barn-yard. “Good morning, Mr. Flebarty.” “Morning, Professor.” “1 made a wonderful discovery on your premises last night, and I have como to continue my researches this morning. 1 made an excavation in a mou'id iust back of your house and found a large cavern containing many valuablo relics of the anoient mound builders. Come with me and see the important discoveries I have made.” 1 hey passed around to the rear of the house The mound is situated a few rods back from the dwelling, and as they approached it the professor said : “Its curious this mound was nevor dis covered before. It took me but a short time to dig into, and it contains a vast quantity of most valuable relics of once numerous and enlightened people who inhabited this entire continent. Ah ! sir, this antediluvian mound—” “ Vhat! that an antediluvian mound? That place contains relics of a once numerous race that is now extinct ? Is it possible that you have cut a hole down into that? Why, you miserable old bald headed fool, that is where my wife keeps the milk and butter. You have ruined the best cellar that was ever built, you everlasting old mullet head, you ! Get off my premises in stantly or I’ll kick you into a ‘relic’ for future ages. And when you get home send back tho things you stole out of that cave or I’ll have the Sheriff after you in a holy minute.” An 01l Newspaper. There has lately been discovered, in the library of the University of Heid elberg, a copy of a newspaper which proves to be the oldest periodical of which there is now any certain knowl edge. It is a quarter volume bearing the date 1609, and is supposed to have been printed by John Garolus, of Strass burg. The paper was issue 1 weekly— each number consisting of two sheets. It was mainly occupied with letters from correspondents in adjoining States, which were contributed regularly. It is interesting to note that letters from Vienna were about eight days on the route, from Venice fourteen to seven teen days, and from Home twenty-one days" When the matter contained in the letters, together with the news re tailed at second-hand, failed to till the sheet, tho remaining space was left blank.' Intelligence of every sort found a place in the journal. Among the most interesting occurrences noted was the manufacture of the telescope by Gali leo. The correspondent from Florence writes, on September 4, to the effect ‘ that the government of Venice made a considerable present to fcignor Gali leo. of Florence, Professor of Mathe matics at Padua, and increased his an nual stipend by 100 crowns, because with dilligcnt study he found out‘a rule aud measure by which it is possible to see places 30 miles distant as if they were near and, on the other hand, near objects to appear mujh larger than they are before our eyes.” (We quote from an account in the London Acad emy.) Tho news received from Prague af fords a disturbed picture of plunder and murder in the streets of the city. It appears that at this period men and women were daily seized by bandits, robbed, strangled, and thrown into the Moldau. Seven bodies wero takeu from the water in one day ; and at another time seven malefactors were apprehend ed, “who confessed that, on the 18th of this month, they threw about four teen persons into the water, and that their band numbered 80, who were, for the most part, natives of Prague.” A Mistake. —That editors are al ways delighted to get anything to “fill up” their paper. That they have plenty of time to cor iect bad manuscript. That they should “puff” everybody i for nothing. That they must have no opinion of their own. That they should know everything whether informed or not. That 'hey have plenty of money. That they should “notice” every scal awag show that travels. That they should have news whether there is any or not. That they should print every man who attends a aog fight or horse race. “I say, Jim, if five and a half yards make a perch, how many will make a pickerel?” “You just tell me first, if two hogshead make a pipe, how many will make a meerschaum ?” Job Work neatly and cheaply exccu ed at this office. Opeu-Uaek Shirts. They were a sleepy lot on the four o’clock car going down Michigan ave nue yesterday. The day was hot, the dust thick, and only one man, and he beyond the prime of life, opened his eyes as a woman crowded in, with a long paper-box under her arm. His eyes opened a little more as she sat down near him, and, presently, they widened to their fullest extent as he read the la' bel on the box—“One dozen open back ed shirts.” He glanced from tho box to the female and back, and groaned : “Land o’love! but what will come next ?” She looked around at him as if she feared that a case of colic would come next, and he brightened up a little and said : “Well, I’ve worn ’em for a year, and I know they are handy and reliable. If my daughters want to get half a doz en apiece i shan’t cry over ft.” ‘•Were you speaking to me ?” she ask ed, after seeing that no one else seemed interested. “I sorter was and sorter wasn’t,” he replied, as he worked a faint smile to face, “I was saying that it's wonderful how much the inventive genius of this country has done for us on the shirt question,” She hitched away a little. “Twenty years ago,” he mused, as lie hitched after her, “if any man had told me that the dormant genius of this country would soon rouse up and invent a button-behind shirt I’d looked upon him as crazy. But dormant genius was all 0. K. Bhe roused, she invented, and I’ve got one o’ them verv shirts on ” The look she gave him ought to have lorn him all to pieces, but it didn’t. ‘ One yea** ago,” he calmly resumed, “if any body had told me that the geu tier sex would socn demand ed shirts I’d have gone a fishing and never returned. But the epoch has hove in sight—she’s right here, I can recommend them a3 boss.” “Who are you talking to; sir ?” she demanded in an awful voice. “To you, madam. I was ssying that if I wear ’em there is no reason why you shouldn’t.” “I appeal to these passengers !” she excitedly exclaimed. “So do TANARUS,” he answered “Every body in this car, with a buttorisbehinu shirt on, will please stand up until I can count noses.” The old man stood up. Ho was all alone. He looked around in a sorrow* ful way, and said : “The noses have it, and the resolu tion is laid on the table. However, I’ll stick to mine, and I don’t believe this woman here will go back on her dozen till she has given ’em a fair show.— Which sid of the neck -lo they botton on, madam ?” The yells that followed brought in the driver. The old man was pointed out as a drunkard and a woman-insuiter, and the driver was feeling for his neck when the astonished man cried out : “Who’s drunk? Who’s insulted any body “lie kept talking about shirts !” sereameded the woman with the box. “And you’ve got a box full !” shout* ed the man. “I hain't ne !” She turned up the box, and saw the label for the first time. She grew red, then white, and there was an awful si lence. Hipping off the cover she ex hibited a bolt of mosquito netting nes tled away in the box. Nay, she held it up, and even shook it at the old man. He smiled Softly, nodded his head a dozen times, and blandly said : “Correct, madam—l tumble to it.— That doesn’t look like a dozen button behind shirts, and I’m grieved if I of fended. Put it back, madam ; forget that you ever saw me and wear any kiud you are a mind to !”—Detroit Free Press. She ot 51*0.1. A till woman with a sharp nose was raking up a yard one day last week She had her dress tucked up, a ridicu lous handerohief tied over her head, and looked like a fright generally. A cross-eyed man diessed in a suit of light clotheß came up the struct, and no ticing the woman, leaned over the fence and remarked : “How sweet is the rosy-posy.” “Oh ! what’s that ?” exclaimed the tall woman, looking up “How charming appears the lovely popsy-wopsy with its dress tucked up,” replied the cross-eyt.d man. “Who’re you talking to, anyway?” said the tall woman, in great surprise, and turning red in the face. “My own ducky-lacky is exquisitely transcendental with the handkerchief,” observed the cross-'eyed man, winking mysteriously with his straight eye “It’s my opinion you're drunk,” ex claimed the tall woman, in a rage; “clear out, or I’ll call the police.” “x\nd would my sweet cherry -blos som set the wicked police on her own lovey-povey ?” said the cross-eyed man. “Clear out, you great over-grown wind-mill,” screamed the tall woman, wrathfuily, “or I'll claw you with this rake ” “Would my pinkey-winkey claw her darling tootsy-pootsy with a kerewel rake?” contimred the cross-eyed man; “I never thought—” Here the tall woman threw dovn her rake in a great passion, and rushed into the house, slamming the door so hard that it broke the knob. And the cress* eyed man moved off, softly muttering ; “What dreadful tempers some sweet- 1 looking women have.” CALHOUN, GA., SATURDAY, AUGUST 11, 1877. omethiug in tlie Bed. Judge Pitman has a habit of slipping his watch under his pillow when he goes to bed. The other night somehow it slipped down, and, as the Judge was restless, it gradually worked it3 way downward toward the foot of the bed. After a brt, while he was lying awake, his foot touched it, and it felt very cold. He was surprised and scared, and, Jumping from bed, he said : “By gracious, Maria ! there’s a toad or snake or something under the cov ers. I touched it with my foot.” Mrs. Pitman gave a loud scream, and was out on the floor in an instant. “Now, don’t go to holloring and wa king up the neighbors,” said the Judge. “You go and get me a broom or some thing, and we’ll fix the thing mighty quick.” Mrs Pitman got the broom and gave it to the Judge, with the remark that she felt as if snakes were creeping all up and down her legs and back. “O, nonsense, Maria ! Now you turn down the covers slowly, while I hold the broom and bang it. Put a bucket of water alongside the bed, too, so’s we can shove it in and drown it.” Mrs. Pi‘man fixed the bucket and gently removed the covers. The Judge held the broom up-lifted, and as soon as the black ribbon of the watch was revealed he crocked away three or four t’mes with h's broom. Then he push ed the thing off into the bucket. Then they took the bucket to the light to in vesiigate the matter. When tho Judge c D saw what it was, ho said : “I might have known that. Just like you women, to go searching and fussing about nothing. Who's going to pay me for that watch ? Ir’s utterly ruin ed.” “It was you that made the fuss, not me,” said Mrs. P. “You needn’t try to put tho blame on me.” “O, hush up aud go to bed. I’m tired of hearing you blather. Blame me if I ain’t going to get a divorce and emigrate.” And the Judge turned in and growl ed at Maria until he fell asleep. —Max Adder. How to Tell a Gentleman. You should never judge by appear ance. The other day a little weazen.- faced man, wearing a $3 50 suit ol clothes, went to one of the big hotels, and registering himself from Texas ask ed for a room, and if breakfast was on the t-ible. The Olympian clerk gazed at him sqoinfully fur a moment and languidly remarked : “Anv baggage ?” J CD r “No,” replied the guest “In that ease,” said tho clerk, “the rules of the Imuse compel me to insist on payment in advance.” “Very * T ell,” said the guest, without hesitation or appearing offended, “take two days’ board out of this,” and from a wad of greenbacks as big as his arm he produced a SIOO note. “I beg pardon,” stammered the abas! - ed clerk, “but we are so often taken in, and your face not being familiar to me. I— “No offense,” cheerily answered the guest; “business is business and rule are rules. It does look a little odd to be traveling without baggage, but us cattle dealers ain’t much on the style, and ” “That’s'all right, Colonel,” said the clerk. “Put up the money ; we know a gentleman when we see him. Jim, sh -w the gentleman to 14G. Call for the best in the house. General.” The old man stowed away an ample breakfast, got the clerk to give him small bills for a fifty, and asked where Billy Cocibaugh, the banker, had his office, inquired when they had dinner, desired the clerk to tell Mr. Farwell, if he called, that he wou’d be hack at 2 o’olock, then wont and has not been seen since. The clerk subsequently discovered the 850 bill to be counter feit. The sad event has cast, a gloom over the hotel office. Politeness. —Many a man, rai-ed from poverty and obscurity to wealth and honor, can trace his n.?e to civiity; it is sure to leproduce itself in others, and he who is always polite wj*l fce sure to get. nt least, as much as he gives.— We believe it was Macauley who do* fined politeness as benevolence in small things The French, who arc nothing, unless Satirical, declare politeness to be the zero of friendship’s thermometer.
