    Aztec Ruins.
Thir ashington Union has published : the
'rough n les kept by Captain Johnson, who
accompanied the.e r pedition of Gen. Kearney
across t o country from New Mexic to Cat
ifornia. Captain J., was killed at, t a battle
rit Sant ascal in •California, and this journal
has bee published under the direction of
'General Kearney. It is full of interest, and
reveals o the world many a scene and spot
hitherto unknown. We copy the following
eityacteseriAive of the - ruins of Casa de
Mantezi ma—t. e house of Montezuma, as it

plainsTl rich had once been occupied, we saw
to our -1 eft the "Casa do Montezuma." I.
rode to i , and found the remains of the walls
of four uildinge, and the piles of earth show
ing whe e many others had been. One of the
building was still quite complete, as a ruin:'

+floorsd the roof, had long since heed burnt
lout., Tie- charredends of the cedar, joist
were sti lin thq - wall. I examined theth and
found they had not been cut with a steel in
strum? t. The joists were ronnd sticks,
about-lour fetit i In diameter. " There were
.four entrances--;-north, south, east and west- 7
:the (loafs abou6foirr feet by two; the rooms
"is Whale, and had the stone arrangernenvin
each story. :There was no sigp of a fire
place in the buildings. The lower story was
dined, ulith rubbish, an 1 above it was the open
Sky. 'l'he walls were four feet tbidk at the
bottom and haul a`curved inclination inwards
to the top. The linise was built of a sort of
white earth and pebbles, probably -c4ntaining
llime, Which abounded ha the gruundadjacent.
The Ntrills had been strioutlied outside, an I
iplastered insi le; an I the sill - face etill reninin
ed firm, although it Was evident they had been
exposed to great`heat from the lira. Some of
the roams did nit open to all the refit, but had
:a holeja foot in diameter- to look through; iif
'other places were smaller holes. About tivo
hundred yards from this was a mound, in-a
•cireleame hundred card; around the mound.
The centre was a hollow, twenty-live yards
in diameter, with two vamps uf e lopes guing
down to its bottom. Il'wie-, probably a well,
now partly tilled up. A similar ' one wa s
seen near Meant DAllas. A few yards fur
ther, in the same direction, northward, was a
lorpce, 100 yards by 70, about live feet high.
!%Jpon this was "a pyramid, about eight feet
high, twenty-five yards square atop: Vro m
this, sitting Tin my !horse, .1 •could overlook
the vast plain lying northeast and west, on
the left bank of the Gila. Thu - ground in
view was slept fifteen miles—all of which, it
gould seem, had been irrigated by then eters
of the Gila. I picked up a broken chrystal
'of quartz in one of-these pilee. Leaving the
Casa, I turned towards the Times, and tray-
elling at random - roer the plain, (now covered
\with musquet,) the piles of earth and pottery
-bowed for hours in every direction" I also
found the remains of a skid, which followed
the range of houses fur miles. It had been
very iarge. When I got to camp I tun a -i
them on good grass, and in communication
with the. Pimos, who came oat with afrimit
welcom:". Their answer to Carson when he
went up and asked bur praisions, was,
4 tfiread is to eat, nut to sell—take what yid
want." • The General naked ii Pimo who
made the house I had .seen. "It isalie Casa
de Montezuma," said he. It was built by the
son of the most beautiful woman who once
dwellediu yon mauutain. She was fair, and
all the handsome men came to court her; but
In vain. When they came, they paid tribute,
.and out of this , small store she fed all people
clitte diem ne.And _it.did not diminish.— .
upon :m.e..

brought forth la bey, who was the buil ler of
all these houels." Ile seemel unwilling to
talk about them; but sail there were pleilty
mare of them to the north, south, west, &c.
Ile said when he first knew this case, it was
in better pi - eservation; but that it had been
burnt too long ago for any of them to remelt

did not understand ,it. , Same other Pones
and Coconsaricoi a 3/ aid vest, and messengers
were sent to Their village to buy water-inel
ssas and 'proVisione, which soon came, al
though.it was several miles. They wanted
white beads for what they had to, sell, and
knew the value of money. Seeing •us eat,
the interpreter told the General he ha I tasted
the liquor of Sonora and New Mexico, and
would like to taste a sample of that of the
United States. The dog had n liquorisim
tooth, and when given a drink of Frencit bran
dy pronounced it better than, any he had ever
seen or tasted. The Mateopa messenger

lip was of course:toll to say to hi chief that
our object was merely to pass pea eably Ilia
their country; that we had heard a great deal
of the 'Pintos, and knew them to, be a good
people; we' were all struck with 'their unas
sumed ease and confidence in approaching our
wimp—not like the- Apaches, win) bayed at
us like their kindred wolves, until the smell
uf tobacco and other (to them); agreeable
timings gave them assurance enough to ap

live along side of each other, but are distinct
people, speaking different tonguesohe latter'

Pintos have long lived at their presentiabode,
and are known to all the tappee§ as a virtuous

A Wirt.: KILLEW BY Ilea' ifiusn.trro.—A
melancholy accident occurred nehr Troy,"Pa.
on Thursday night, of laSt week. Some time
in the night Mrs. Pierce, wife of Dr". 3. B.
Tierce, had occasion to go to the window of
the chamber in which they ; were sleeping,
leaving Dr. P. asleep. The rising of the win
dow awoke him, and he instantly seized his
gun, which was near his bedsi le, supposing
that some one was tirying to break into the
house. After Mrs. P. had let down the win
dow, she advanced tw.vards the be.l-9r. P.
called out twice to stop, or he would firs; but
she stilt advanced, and be tired, when she was
near the muzzle of the gun—the whole charge
of short entering her hreast, and she fell dead
on the floor. fjo then felt in the bed for his
wife, to teill her he had killed some one, when
not.finding her, the truth dashed upon him,
that he had shut-his- wife: He imme4iutely
rushed out of the house, and' soon returner
with sew of the neighbors, when the iiwful
spectacle befoie them revealed all. We un
derstand thet - his affliction is great, as they
were very warmly attached to each other in
life.—Elmira Ga:.

_ which may withal be true. The point of it is
that some of Kr. Ty . lees neighbors:in Virgin
ia--the Standard says they are Whigs and ac
ted in the matter through the promptings of
political dislike—Ndertook to "head" the ex-
President by solemfy electing him to the, ra
ther ungracious office of road overseer but that
the ea-President turned the tables on them by
going into the business of road making with
such a will—levying contkibutions of work
men from the fields and plantations of the un
lucky neighbors aforesaid—that before many

ATTACK ILIE!ON I,iSN. C0r9.4-We notice that
some of the opposition papers attempt to be
remarkably severe upon Gen: Cass, because
e wrote •a brief note signifying his inability
to !tend the Chicago Convention, without
going •' to a,detailed exposition of his views
in relation to :Harbor and River Impet#e
thetas: Were Gen. Cass sti' far removed from
public life as to:rentler his opinion on this sub
ject comparatively unknown, there might be
some ground fur this display of tartness on
the pdrt of his political opponents. Btu with
his , recgnt votes in the Senate, on:the bills
which were vetoed by the President, to direct
them, it.would seem hardly pus.isihie that those
who profess to,take stich'a deep interest in tbe
matter, should necessarily be ignorant of the
position, of even though he neg
tgctslo 'define it Fin Lis letterto the Commit- -
tee 9f Correspondence-of the Chicago Con
vention. Whatever may be Gen; Cass' de
fect as apol itician t 'note-conmittislisne, certain
-13,1 is nut one of them. His prominence with
the democratic party, an l with the whole Am
erican people, render it necessary tlmehis op
ponents should(attack 'hint whenever and
where , : 'they cmget a chance, 8a far as
the atlitir the Chicago letter is concern, we
do not spore.4l4 that it will very Materially

speaking of the protectlin,gs of the late
Chicago convention, the Washington corres
pondent of the Baltithore'Son remarks:
"There is some dislinsition'tolnake invidi
ous commnts upon the characters of.the an
swers.received by the cenvention•from prdm
inent political men. The convention appears
to have conversed ihemselvds kta sort of
political trap to catch the unway politieinn.
"What right heti the tonvention to expect
that General Cass Nvuld commit. himself be.
fore-the-n on this Suhject?• It. is well known
however, that Gen. 'Cass is, in favor of im
proving the barbers anithe navigation of the
lakes and rivers•of the hest, but he may net
t willing to enter into a lug-rUlling sciletne
fur indiscriminate'eipenditures on these ob
jects."
lit point of filet, so far as appears, General
Cass' opinion was not asked in respect to the
purposes for which the convention , met. Ho
was merely invited to attend that body: and
because, in giving his reason why he should
be unable to be present at its •deliberations,
he did not think fit to state his views on the
whole sulkier : l-matter of internal improvement
[well known qevery one, by the way.] some
very eignijirdidelegates-manifested their t'li

led by the older of two brothers named Allen,
upon whom the writ was to be served. As
tne Aliens had threatened that they would not,
-he arrested, the Sherlifsummutied a posse,.and
entering the house attempted to ex.nute the
process, when one of the Allens,lJoth of whom
were armed, lowered his rifle and shot the
Sheriff through the body, killing hint upon'
the spot. Upon this one of the posse, .10r..
LUW, drew a pistol nil killed Allen, while the
, younger Allen - fired upon Low, - which was al
so fatal. Some oneof the Nsse then shot the
sun lying Allen, the ball passing thr nigh his
arm,, shattering him -bone anti into his breast.
The wound in Lis casewas not mortal, and
he made his escape,,but the officers ofjostiee

his anathmas at the Hon. John 111'Lean, of
Ohio, now urged by \ many of its party as a
candidate for the Presidency, and who "from
his locality, has greater cause to assume an
open and determined 'stand on the questiun of
improt ing hirers and Ibmbitkrs t'llpll Lewis
country.6•.they are not recorded in the Jour - -
mils of the Senate, or any, where else.—
Then let us have Gen. Zachary Taylor,
another. w hig . candidate for the Presidency,
"censured." I lis opinions, too, are unknown,
and of - course he ought nut to hallo "remained
silent at a time when au emphatic expression
_was demanded q 'every friend of River and
Harbor Improvements." Having dispatched
old "Rough and - Ready," the Gazette will then
arraign Gen. Winfield Scott, another Whig
. I
candidate fur' the presidency.' His opinions
are unknown, and of course, he, too, ought not
trj, have "remained silent at a time when an em
phatic expression wa‘demanded Of everyfriend
of River and harbor Improvements." Then,
there is John J. Crittenden, and John M.
Clayton; and Johu Davis, and Wm. H. Sew
ard, all spoken of in connection with the Pres
idency or Vice PresidenCy,..our neighbor will
successiVely arraign at the barof public opin
ion, on the same ground. We might also
enumerate a few more lesser lights .of whig
cry who did not either write to, or attend that
Convention, when, according to the Gazette,
"au combat expression was demanded of ev
ery filen f River and Harbor Improve
s
meats," but one shall suffice, and that one
shall be—Gux. CHARLES M. REED!

col.Dornplian and tlieFederapati,
Our neighbor of the Gazette has designated
ua as belonging to'.the "wiir-loving clan,"
and at the same time quotes a, garbled ex
tract, "torn from its context," of the speech
Of Col. Doniphan, in which the gallant Colo-,
nel l is made to say that Gen. Taylor (not "wv"
;lithe Gaiette has it,) "has gained nothingl."
Before, however, we proCeed to-show the Pri
justice such quotation does the - Colonel, and
tholraud attempted to be practised upon the
reader by it, lettis settle this charge of our be
longing to the "war-loving - clan."
?i h oting Col. Doniphan, the Gazette sayi,
he hasy •
"just returned from the scene of hostile
operations, after performing good service,
and may be p`iesumed to have spoken by„ , the
card.' " Having "spoken by 'the card,' "
thdn; let him.tell who thewar-loving clanl
are—whether we belong to it or our neigh
'bee., The Colonel says: i
Fellow citizens, th'e spciches Which are shade
in opposition to this tear; Sitid to emenate
from the peace party; hut I say that they are
wade by those who are postponing the peace
eternally! i.
This is' conclusive on the point—those who
make 00 publish Speeches "in opposition to:
this wart "are inistporsing peach eternally,"
consequently the editor of the Gazette must
belong to the "war-loving, Clan." • Let our ,
neighbor twist Liinself out of,this corner if
can! , - •
But what have we gained by' this war ex
claims the Gazette--airl to show that we
have gained nothing, quotes the following:
Fellow-Citizens: What have we gained by
This war? Of Gen. Taylor I can safely speak,
having been thringh all his lines tif operation.
He has gained ( four diStinguiShed victories,
perhaps the most brilliant that have ever been
gained op this Continent; and yet i t elfus vitt
cd nothing r ' i
What gross injustice to quote smelt a' pai:'
uffraph,'when the following is so intiffiately
connected with it, both by position and senti—
ment. Verily, should the Colonel exclaim,!
. .
"save me from my friends:" _
1 .- "Iti is true, felloW eitiiens; fliat ibis r vdar has'
I not beenr it thuut i s effect. We now !resent ,

can be transformed-into good soldiers by a
proper discipline. N'Ve have shown it al` the

was 'compojea of volunteers; an-I I.defy the
world to produce a parallel to that batrle..+
The whitleleft wing was turned, and the imyr
inds

dewil on that handful .of volunteers,,almoSt
surrounding them on all sides; yet they were
sufficient to drive this superior force - , and vi--
tory perched op their 6tand4rds. This, f,fllow ,
citizens, tvas done by tl.dunteers alone; if tea;
done by volunteers, disciplined in tile school
of :Taylor, and of that scientific officer and tat
complished gentleman, 'Oen. Vool."_
But we are not done with the gallant Col'-
oael yt—he is too good evidence to be allow
ed to -retire so soon—especially as "he spats
by the cards''

UV' ' blicint uy!ino card," in regard t this.
The,quotation below, too, \will help answer mir
tic ighbor.'s question, "what; have no - gained
by this war." i
"The Administration has done all thtt the
action of Congress permitted it to do, in fur
nishing its generals wilat the amount a id de
scriptifm of force which they required. And
the feats which our arms have already ri:.com
plii>bed—the armed ocoupition, both of the

—the Stilijit‘r,ation of vast regions of Ni.. xican
