ZOZONIA, INDIANA CO., PA.
With all the frauds, chicanery and cor
ruption of :popular elections, no better
system Of government ever can be de
vised than the representative, and in spite
of all efforts to the contrary, no voting
constituency will long be misrepresented
in the men of their choice. One is im
pressed with this fact in going ,over that
part of New York which elected 'Nor
risey. No man so fit to represent those
people as the great, successful gambler
and pugilist, and in looking around, and
exploring this'region, Ihave been strong
ly impressed with the suitability of the
representation of these people, by stout
Old John Covode.
' Congress does not present a wider
contrast than Covode or Morrisey; the
country has no wirier contrast than their
constitnaucies. Of the latter it is not neces
sary to speak; bed the former is a curiosi
ty. Here, in almost every house, stands
the spinning wheel; here are the women
who use it. One of our nearest neigh
bors has two looms, the regular old fash
ioned lOom, none of your flying shuttle
concerns, she and her hired girl sit side
by side, and weave blankets, twilled and
plain, .bags of flax and tow, table linen
• and toweling, plain and bird-eye, car
pets, of rags and yarn, at the moderate
price of. twelve and a half eta- per yard.
This mistress and maid not only sit side
by side at work, but at table, in church,
and :wheresoever they may happen to be.
Across the field the hired help of a full
farmer was married to the son and heir.
a few Weeks ago, witl3 the entire approval•
of all parties. Class in society is as for
eign to the ideas of these people ,as In
dia's castes. The women work afield,
roll logs, burn brush, harrow, rake and
bind grain, . rake hay, mow back,
hoe
corn and potatoes, raise flax, pull it, rot
it, break it, scutch it, hackle and spin it,
snare; bleach, cut, mike and. wear it;
raise sheep, cut the wool from their backs,
and put it through every process neces
sary to convert it into clothing. The
men calculate to "take the heavy end of
the log," and men and women work to
gether in the old style fashionable all
over the country in Revolutionary times.
The houses and furniture belong to that
period, except the log fire. Cook
stoves are in every house and up
holstered furniture, none about I
Oar piano is so great a curiosity that
people have come miles to see and hear
it; they sometimes come miles to carry
us a basket of fresh fruit and vegetables.
They take it for granted that you are to
' come and see them, and stay for coffee—
do not use tea, and, when you go the coffee
• is made by the good wife, while the hus
band leaves his team in the furrow to
come and show pan welcome. The best
the house affords is set before you. The
hired girl and farm hand, if there. are
any, with the children, gather around the
board with you, and the head of the
'ouse bows and says grace, perhaps in
English, perhaps in German. If the lat
ter, there is a German Bible lying some
• vvhere•alxtut for the old folks, and one in
English for the children.
There is sure to be a Bible in every
house, with sharply defined ideas of its
teachings on contested points. There is
a newspaper, too, and settled opinions as
to the policy it advocates. Here your
editor finds one or more critics in every
house, and sonic of them as dogmatical
as any doctor of divinity dare to be.
There is a shelf of books in the living
room, which generally show use- '
among
them are one or more on "the late un
pleasantness between the States." Al
most every house furnished one or more
soldiers to the war. Some of the women
lived with only one, two or three little
children, on the arm, carried on the
farming operations, took the children
- through the whooping cough, cared for
horses and cattle, and had enough to spare
of their own living, while the husband
and father fought for the old flag.
'There are no poor: folks in this region,
-none who would acceptalms and no one
finer than his neighbor. Women
go to church in a , calico sun bonnet or
.something more pretentious, just as it
' suits them; and men in coats or shirt
sleeves according to the weather.
It is amusing to think of the efforts in
city Pairs to get up "New England
kitchens," as' if they were things of the
dread '.past. Here, less than• 'a day',ls•
journey from your city, we have plenty
of kitchens with the old time accompani
ments, Pennsylvania kitchens, just, as
'primitive as the New England article.

Cowede is the, right man •in the right„
place. What...though , there are some'
boroughs in the districtewhich put on airs
of gentility, and might•be I properly rep

LETTER FRO3I.COLOBA.IIO.
Worremondenee of the Pittsburgh Gizette.3
Do Boss, Bic SANDY Foss OF
ARKANSAS RIVER, L
COORADO, •
September 7, 1869.
Enrrons GAZETTE: T womonths have
passed since I wrote last,in which I - have
been too busy to write a satisfactory let
ter. During this time our survey has
progressed one hundred mites westward
from Sheridan, the present western ter
minus of the Kansas Pacific railway
passing near,Fort Wallace and Cheyenne
-Wells and striking the Big Sandy ten
miles below this pines, near the junction
with the Proposed line to the Pacific by
the thirty-fifth parallel.
My position as topographer and office
engineer of the party in the field affords
great facilities for acquiring a thorough
knowledge of the country, but as yet I
have found nothing to modify in my
former accounts. I had not overrated its
value for pasturage, or for cultivation
where irrigation is possible, nor the health
giving qualities of the climate, to which
nothing eastward is comparable. Per
contra there is no timber except a little
cottonwood on the banks of streams, no
coal till we get beyond the plains, and
no stone west of Fort Wallace, where
thi re is plenty of beautifully tinted mag
nesian limestone, so soft as to be sawn
- more easily than pine wood.
The scarcity of water for ordinary uses
is readily overborne by shallow wells in
the dry watercourses or by deeper ones
on higher ground, avoiding the patches
of alkaline earth which make many of
the natural pools unfit to use. Artesian
wells may ultimately be used in addition
to the few permanent streams for irriga
tion, the almost constant wind affording
cheap power for pumping and the geolog
ical nature of the country, a wide, shal
low trough, of Termian or upper carbon
iferous strata, filled with effluvial drift
from the Rocky Mountains, giving good
prospect of obtaining sufficient water by
wells reaching through the drift. The
heads of streams tap the permanent un
derground contents of water, which are
generally the sole drainage of the coun
try. These pass freely through their
sandy course, and when interrupted, by
impermeable masses appear as springs,
generally of good water, but soon sink
again, often to reappear, making a succes
sion of springs of the same water, just
as landscape gardeners sometimes do to
economize water.
The Big Sandy, by which we are
camped, now a dry sandy bed four hun
dred feet wide, but in flood a torrent, with
an average fall of nearly twenty fret per
mile, has an underground current, which
evades the sand so as to leave it in places
a loose mixture of sand and water, so un
stable as to be ready to collapse under the
weight of animals passing across, thus
forming dangerous quleksands.
On the same stream; the same cause
produces a succession of deep pools of
cool, palateable water, wherever the eva
sion reaches the surface. These are sepa
rated by long intervals of solid, moss
covered ground, which has none of the
appearance of a water course.'
A few miles cast of this place, a re
markable depression, called Eureka Ba
sin, ten miles in width, has been worn
out by surface floods and the wind taking
up the loose soil and depositing it on the
grassy bluffs around in fantastic sand,
hills. This depression is two hundred
feet below the general level of the plains,
and considerably below the Big Sandy,
which flows along a ridge formed of the
debris which it brings lrom the base' f
the mountains, but decends so rapidly as
to be low enough twenty miles from here
to receive the drainage of the basin.
The drift from the mountains, of which
these plains are fornied, abounds in many
places in fossils. Twenty miles west of
Fort Wallace we fauna a fossil saurian
whose living length was nearly twenty
feet. Petrified wood is common. On
Fossil Creek, east of Sheridan, several
mastadon and many other organic re
mains have been found. At Antelope
Station, Nebraska, several new species
of horses have been unearthed. Alto
gether the plains seem to be the most I
promising ot all fields for paleontological I
research. Dr. Foster, now President of 1
the American Scientific Association,
thinks he has gathered, chiefly from this
region, sufficient evidence to establish
the existence of pre-Adamic races of men.
Whether this be' so or not, the incoleate
condition of the country and the blend
ing of the alluvial period into the present
is easily apparent, and here seems to be
the door by which to pass from the pres
ent to geological periods.
Having given this letter a rather earthy
character, I shall in others take up other
subjects, among them. the social charac
teristics of an uninhabited country.

Writ of Habeus Corpus Issued—team
lly Secrets Said to be Involved.
A gentleman confined in the Bloom
ingdale Lunatic Asylum wrote to Mr.
John B. Townsend, requesting him to
initiate measures to secure his release
from confinement. The writer of the let
ter is Mr. Henry= Frothingham, formerly
a merchant in Pearl street, and who pre
vious to his confinement,• always acted
like a sane 'man. -'On receipt of, this
communication Mr. Townsend proceeded
to the Asyluin,for the purpose of holding
an interview with !fir. .Prothingham,
which the authorities of that institution
positively denied, referring ihim, how
ever, to Mr. Frothingham's brother for
the partieulard of the case. When the
latter was called on, he informed Mr.
Townsend that his brother Was hopelessly
insane, and described a few of his freaks,
which plainly demonstrated, a feeble
brain. Theie assertions were coMmuni
cated to the alleged lanatiC, who ;n,turn
denied them in the moot emphatic, terms.
Under these circumstances, Mr. :Town
send last Saturday, applied to Mr. Jus
tice Barbour of the Superior Court; for a
'wilt of hams corpus, which was readily
granted.

PITTSBITEGH GAZETTE: MIDDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1869,
STRANGE DISCOVERY
Ancient Ruins at Saratoga—What For
gotton Race Drank and Bathed at -the
Springs Ages Ago!
(From the Saratoga Post.)
In making excavations for the founda
tion walls of the bottling house, at the
Star Spring, among other evidences cf
an occupancy of this interesting locality
by a former people, and for purpose's sim
ilar to those for which this spring is now
famous—the recuperation of health—the
workmen laid bare a range of vat i g, some
half dozen in number, which had evi
dently been used for bathing purposes.
The remains of a wall, doubtless of an
other century, were plainly developed,
one portion being entire for a distance of
thirty-five feet, and which ran along the
south side of this row of vats, dome five
feet from the most southern vat; but
whether these were inside - or outside of
the building, there is nothing developed,
as yet, to determine. Our own opinion
is that they - were outside the building,
which rested upon the wall, and may,
probably, have been part of another es
tablishment, and unlikely of a different
age.
To the north of this wall, and a little
west of the vats, the workmen came to a
large black oak tree of more than two feet
in diameter, with the bark on, and with
the exception of the sap portion of the
wood, some two inches in depth, the sub
stance of the tree was as sound as ever.
This tree was not more than four feet from
the surface, we should judge; but the ap
pearance of the soil above and around it
forbade the idea that it had ever been ex
humed before, or seen the light of day for
centuries. It was imbedded. in a deposit
of pure alluvian, so purely vegetable that
the black mass spaded up, to else the words
of the laborers, "like old cheese."
The deposits that surrounded the tree
were sim - lar to that found in most of our
morasses, and the pores of the wood hay
ing imbibed the darker fluid, the timber,
though sound, as we have said, was of a
ditrk color. A. thousand years may have
away since this patriarch of the
morass has been cut down. The depos
it in which it was imbedded did not come
up to the surface, and the strata above it
was evidently ofi no recent origin. The
vats, or bathing tubs, were of rude con
struction, and it is difficult to determine
in what century they were used. The
"oldest inhabitants," whose familiarity
,with the location extends back to three
score years, can tell nothing of their use,
or even of their existence. The remains
and other evidences of antiquity brought
to light in the recent operations at this
spring show, unmistakably that a former
,age and - other people knew of the virtue
of these waters.
Seeing tile Bugs—One of the Absurdities
of tue Middle Ages.
In the Middle Ages the German peasant
suffered constanily from the ravages of
enormous swarms of injurious insects
upon his crops, and his only means of
defence was to institute legal proceedings
against his little enemies, before either
the legal or ecclesiastical courts. Stich a
procedure - now appears ridiculous; but it
was then the prevailing idea that every
criminal must be punished according to
to his crime, no matter whether the guilty
were rationally responsible or not.
'nese processes against insects were in
the higllest degree curious. Special rules
were prepared for them; many —legal gen
tlemen" of that time made them their
study, and books full of scholarly. research
were written upon the subject. The feria
of trial varied according to the class of
licensed animal. If the animal could be
arrested, it made its appearance in person
be fore the criminal court. If the crim
inals were small, such as snails, cater
pillars, field-worms, etc., and the people
had no means of capturing them, the case
was brought before the clerical judges, the
only authorities which were then con
sidered capable of bringing down the pun
ishment of Heaven upon the offenders.
The owners of the devastated field or dis•
trict appeared as accusers, and a person
was usually appointed to defend the case
of the insects. The minutest foims of
justice were observed; both parties were
heard, and the sentence pronounced by
the clerical court. This was usually in
the form of an exorcism or ban.
The delinquents received peremptory
orders to leave the land they had devas
tated, and to withdraw to an uncultivAted
neighborhood, where they could net
larm mankind, and which was often ea.
pressly designated to them. ' Such an or
der reads us follows : "It its, carterpil
lers, snails, and all you unclean animals,
which destroy the harvest of our brothers,
begone out of the canton which you are
devastating, and'llee to such where you
can injure nobody." If it was suspected
that the mischief makers were instituted
by the devil, the anathema was added to
the command. In urgent cases, the in
sects were tentenced to leave the neigh
borhood at once, being allowed from
three hours to three days's grace, Fre
quently the insects were warned before
being brought to judgment, to desist from
further injury, and to leave the land, and
in order that they could not plead ig
norance, this warning, as well as the
Judge's sentence was made known in
the whole devastated district by means of
public criers, amidthe blowing of t um
pats and the beating of drums.
Such processes are frequently rec riled
as having taken place from the four enth
up to the eighteenth century. One such.
was instituted against masses of Spaniall
flies, which had committed much damage
on a strip of land. in the electorate of
Mayence. The Judge, in consideration
of the smallness jor the body' and' youth
of 'the-accused," had assigned them a
guardian and advocate; and the • latter'.
Very" Warmly• defended the , cause of hih
Client.' He did not denythe daniage dons
by
,theM;`but urge.d, that it was a case of
necessity, and. &stied that,they..should
have a.territory,allotted to them, where
they could live , lilte honest people,
out doing others an injury, • :ilia demarlds
wore granted, and "even to-day," saysi
writer of the period, "the inhabitants
'that neighborhood concluded a contract,
with the Spanish flies b,y .Wbichthey give
up to them' a certain strip" or. land; so that
these chafers shall_ be sufficed iherewith
arid no. more attenPt : to pass the boun'
daries agreed upon."
