A CUBIO?S CA YE. lie mar kable Discovery In a Cliff House In Arizona?Kylies of a Prehistoric Race. Chicago Times Letter. A cave containing some interesting In? dian relics has recently been discovered in the Burro mountains, about twenty five miles southwest from Silver City, Arizona. A ranchman, Mr. Metcalf, with his two sons, was out in the Moun? tains a few miles distant from the ranch, "prospecting" for mines. In their wan? derings one day they found the trail of a large bear. Following this for some time through a canon, it at last led up the steep confines, which required no little exertion and perseverance to climb, the wall being abont seventy-five feet in height and very rugged. Near the top they saw something that looked like a large black spot upon the red rock, which rose at this point like the facade of a great cathedral. Upon a nearer ex? amination this apparent blemish proved to be a natural cave, sixty feet in length, thirty in width and abont twelve or fif? teen feet in height. The entrance was comparatively large admitting the air light. Part of the cave near the door bad been partitioned off and been occu pied at one time as a cliff dwelling. Entering the cave, one of the young men began poking in the deep dust that had accumulated upon the floor of the cavern with a stick be carried in his band. This coming in contact with something pliant, his curiosity became excited, and he hastily removed the mats of woven or plaited reeds or cane eigh? teen inches in length and oblong in shape; also some curious sandals. In? spired by this discovery, the party re? turned for their picks and shovels, and began work removing the deposit of the fine dust, interspersed with layers of rock that had chipped off in succeeding years from the roof of the cave. Having excavated to the depth of five or six feet, they found many mats like those de cribed, some in a perfect state of per servation, most of them unornamented while others were decorated with large turquoises, one large stone in the center of the mat and one on each corner. They were also embellished with strings of small sea-shells and beads of uniform size, cylindrical, and of a delicate pink tint, evidently sections of some bone. Beside these were tiny baskets made from the same pliable reeds or cane, which were six inches high and had covers attached, and were filled with corn and beans. They found also many bows and arrows, supposed to have been placed in the cave as offerings to little children there interred. The strings of the bows were made from twisted fibres of the maguey or some other plant of that species so common in this country, and still as strong and perfect as when first attached to that war-like implement. The arrows were not placed in quivers, but a bundle was tied to each bow by a twisted cord of colored material, resembling cotton in texture, but which burns like wool. Large banks of this material, carefully tied together, were found among other relics. There were likewise bundles of reeds of equal length, tied together. Where some of the reeds bad been shorter than the others they bad been carefully and deftly spliced. Among the most enrious things found were sandals, which are totally unlike anything hereto "ore seen among the In? dians, or among any relics of the aborigi? nes. They were made from the plaited leaves of toe maguey, or Spanish bayo? net, fastened across the foot by strings manufactured from the fibres of the same plant. Upon some of them the impress of the heel and ball of the foot is still plainly discernible. Their feet were re? markably small in their proportions. Several wooden idols, grotesqueley pain? ted, were unearthed, the largest being about three leet in height, with a halo around its bead, painted in red, green and yellow. The same figure had a rude attempt at wings, which were painted like the balo. A sheperd's crook was also discovered, crudely carved and illumina? ted. All of the cutting and carving done upou these relics was undoubtedly accomplished by the use of stone imple? ments. There were innumerable pieces of stone pottery, all cot or carefully chip? ped into circle:! five or six inches in diame? ter. The only specimen of pottery found entire was an ol la, or jar, almost filled with human teeth, and containing one-half of a jaw-bone, the large, perfect teeth still in their sockets. Underneath all of these relics, almost six feet below the {iresent floor or level of the cave, was a ine of cremated bone-dust from eight to ten inches in depth, together with frag? ments of human bones, which soon crum? bled when exposed to the air. The bone dust was a gravish-white color, with here and there very dark spots. The most important of these curiosities were taken by Mr. Metcalf to bis ranch, and were seen there by Lieut. Gatewood, of the Sixth cavalry, then in the mountains commanding a scouting party of Apache Indians. The Indians examined the relics mi? nutely and with much curiosity, never having seen anything resembling the sandals and some of the other relics, but expressed some fear and a little indigna? tion that the place of burial should have been desecrated, saying that the relics oelonged to and "came from God's house." The "medicine-man" among the Indians asked permission to exhibit the collection of curiosities to his comrades, and when the Indians had assembled the relics were all placed in some symbolical figure upon the ground, the large idol, of course, holding the place of honor, while with solemn dance and alow, monotonous chant the Indians formed in a circle around them. The medicine man then sprinkled the relics with a black and yellow powder, and finally returned them to their present owner. While this ceremony wai being enacted some of the spectators were inclined to laugh and deride the performance, at which . the Indians were much offended. Lieut. * Gatewood and Acting Assistant Surgeon McPherson visited the cave, and there obtained some of the relics. The In? dians, with one exception, would not venture near the spot, and the only one irreverent enough to approach it could not be induce to intrude within its sa? cred limits. The excavation at that time bad been very limited and imperfect, an area of a few feet only having been examined. What further developments more extend? ed research may bring to light remains in tho future. The accumulated deposit of dry, impalpable dust in the cave becomes, when disturbed, almost suffocating, and it is necessary to cover the mouth and nos? trils with a thin handkerchief or cloth in order to breathe with freedom. Upon Lieut. Gatewoods homeward march, in crossing tbe Mimbres Mountains, he found another cave or cliff house, the in? terior walls covered with curious hiero? glyphics. He had neither time nor im ?^liuncnts tp make any researches, but pul? ling asfdesoine fallen stotJjjwKrTemoving thedust, be found a mat and one of the curious sandals heretofore described. To thoue interested in archaeology an investigation of these caves and ancient cliff-houses offers probable facilities for unraveling or unvailing the dark mys? tery which has for ages enshrouded the history of a prehistoric people, once so populous in a land now forbidding in its barrenness. Sixteen Tears of Silence. A curious story comes from St. Louis, and one which is worth repeating if only for the instructive lessou which it teaches of human folly, self-will and unhoppinesB. Sixteen years ago a gentlemon of St Louis, a man of wealth and position, who had once been Mayor of the city, had a dispute with his wife. Up to that time the married life of the two had been happy and harmonious. On this fatal day, how? ever, the husband asked the wife to affix her signature to a conveyance of certain property of which he had made au ad? vantageous sale. She refused to sign for some reasou which she fully stated, and which in said to, have been connected with her anxiety to protect the interests of a much loved son. The husband sought by every means of persuasion and importunity to change her determination, but to no purpose. He was a stubborn and resolute man, and fully bent upon accomplishing his end. At last bis temper got the better of his discretion and his love, and he solemlv swore that unless within a given time his wife signed that deed he would never speak to her again on earth. It was a terrible oath, for he loved his wife fondly, but he meant to keep it. Unfortunately, the wife also was possessed of a strong will and an obstinate temper, and she declared that she would not be driven into doing what her judgment disappoved. If her refusal was to be punished by such con? sequences, so be it! She would be as silent as he. The husband waited until the fatal tine had passed, and then he deliberately sealed bis lips against the companion of his life. They did not separate; they were both too proud, too just, and too considerate of their chil drens'interest for that; but they never spoke to each other. They lived in sep? arate chambers, but they sat at the same table and trated each other with all out? ward demonstrations of respect. When circumstances made communication be? tween them absolutely necessary, they addressed each other through the medium of their daughter, and she spoke for both. So the years went on. Over that home, rich and prosperous in worldy goods, a cloud brooded forever. The daughter used all her influence to effect a recon? ciliation,but her efforts were unavailing. And now in the remorseless irony of life, a pitiful result followed. The boy in whose interest the signature had been refused grew tired of the gloom which prevaded his home, and at last he ran away and disappeared. It was never known what became of him, but there were reasons for believing that he filled one of the nameless graves of the civil war. Still the stern estrangement went on. The daughter grew to womanhood, and a lover sought her hand. She refused to leave her father and mother, or to give up and abandon her sacred office of mediator between those unhappily parted spirits. At last her lover agreed to live in the family mansion, and they were married. But a terrible issue was at hand, and a few days ago the young wife died very suddenly of a congestive chill. And so the last link that bound the strangely arsorted household together was snapped, and npon the aged couple a desolation worse than [death deseeded with all the crushing weigh of retri tbuion. The atory goes on to say that an im? mense cortege followed the body to the grave, for the strange history in which the dead woman had figured was well known, and many friends mourned over her tomb. But to the father and mother, whose hearts no grief could soften, and whose obduracy no lapse .of time could overcome, what help could sympa? thy afford! They had made their own fate, and must abide the issue. Death has robbed them of all they had to live for, but Life still claims them, and will not let them go. What more terrible pictures could be painted of human folly and the desolation which can be worked by the evil pasions of an obstinate heart? ? Hon. Montgomery Blair expresses the opinion that if Mr. Tilden had "set up" the Kelly bolt in New York it could not have resulted more to that gentle? man's advantage than it has and will. He has no idea that Kelly will have more than a contemptible following when the day of election comes around, and the whole affair, according to his view, will only tend to help, what he thinks was certain at any rate, the nomination of Mr. Tilden by the next Democratic Con tion. Under the Supervision of the Executive Committee of Pomona Grange. Mr. Faul F. Hammond on Upland Bice?No. 2. There are two varieties of rice, namely, gold rice, which grows only in water cul? ture, and white nee, which may be grown with either wet or dry culture. Of the latter I have planted three distinct sub varieties, and there are, probably, several others. The hardiest and most produc? tive is a flat rice, known under several names?Guinea, Gopher, Bulkhead, &c, &c. Owiog to the peculiar form of the grain, it is not adapted to the machinery in the pounding mills, and the millers have found it to be so troublesome to prepare for market that they decline to work it on toll. This greatly diminishes its value as a market crop. Two years ! ago I bought seed from the West Indies. The plant grows larger and more .uxu riantly than our native kinds, resists drought and heat better, does not fall or j lodge, is fairly productive, and the grain of the first quality. It is, however, pe? culiarly susceptible to the influence of cold, and liable to rot "in the sprout," while it requires fully two weeks longer to mature. These are objections which becomejvery serious where the lands are cold or the season short. The third va? riety is the ordinary white rice, common? ly found in the markets, and familiar to all who have had much tc do with rice. It is important that the planter should get good seed ; and what the rice planter means by good seed, is simply sound, well-ripened seed, free from mixture with volunteer rice. Volunteer rice is red rice, and its presence injures the market value; but worse than that, it ripens sooner than the other rice, and falls out, causing in this way often the loss of a j considerable percentage of the crop. KINDS OF 80IL. I Rice may be grown, but will not fruit j well, on very light soils. It prefers moist loams and the lighter clays. The soil along our rivers, creeks and branches? mud bottoms, marsh lands when drained and not too much inclined to peat, and second lowlands, if not too stiff?are well adapted to it. It can be grown, and sometimes with favorable seasons very successfully, on high dry uplands of good quality, but its culture there is hardly to be recommended. CULTURE. The culture is almost identical with that of cotton. Pulverize the ground well with the plough and harrow. When the time has come for planting, run off shallow furrows with a light shovel plough, three and a half feet apart. If the land is warm and dry, drop in the furrow in hills eighteen inches apart, from ten to fifteen seed to the hill, ac oording.to the strength of tho soil, and cover lightly. If the land is cold or wet, throw up in beds the same as for cotton, and plant on the bed. The after culture is with the side harrow and sweep and the hoe?just sufficient to destroy weeds and grass. There is no grain that tillers so much as rice. I have watched a hill this season which came up a single blade and now has ninety-one stalks. It may be doubted, however, if it is desirable to encourage tillering by thin planting. It seems probable that when enough seed are used to produce at once all the stalks the land should bear, the rice will head out and ripen with more uniformity ; and that is a matter of not a little importance. Rice may be planted in middle South Carolina as late as the last week in May on cold lands, or as early as corn, than which it is little more subject to injury from frost (after it has come up) where the soil is warm. The critical period is when it is in the sprout. Too much cold and moisture at that time will cause the sprout to rot and destroy the germ. I have known seed to lie in the ground for a month, and, when they did not sprout, make a good stand. But if you find your seed have sprouted and the blade does not appear in a few days, the sooner you plant over the better. To avoid this dif? ficulty, the covering should be done very lightly. This is one of the essential points in planting. Rice will not come up well if covered deep, and especially if the earth is pressed upon it, differing cu riyusly in this respect from nearly all other seed. THE YIELD. Several years ago the Georgia State Fair gave a prize to a planter of South? west Georgia for an acre of rice which yielded ninety-three bushels. The land was described as pino land, which had been cow-penned. I have known an average of sixty-four bushels per acre gathered from twenty-one acres. A neighbor claims last year forty bushels from a half acre, and nix hundred and thirty from thirteen acres. With the ex? ception of one year, when, from excessive heat and drought the crop was almost a complete failure, I have averaged forty to forty-five bushels, with a maximum on one acre of sixty-six. In these last in? stances the land planted was a strong black loam, well adapted to rice. EXHAUSTION, ROTATION, MANURES. It is often asked, "Is rice an exhaus? tive crop?" A personal experience of only a few years hardly authorizes one to answer this question positively. Un? questionably rice, like many other plants, grows better on land which has been rest? ing, or after other crops. Rotation with ploughed crops performs a special service in cleaning the land of "volunteer," which comes wherever rice is planted centinuously. On fresh lands rice does excellently, and I have seen respectable crops made on first year's new ground, even before the large trees had died. On the other hand, 1 have very good rice on land which has been planted in it for three years; and on a neighboring place the seventh successive crop, in as many years, promises well; in each instance no manure has been used. It is a curious fact, if it be a fact, that guano, the phos? phates, and cotton seed, applied in the drill after the manner for cotton, do uot benefit. Yet a number of experiments which I have made this year seem to in? dicate it.? Alien Journal and Review. A Grange Essay. The Grange was formed for mutual education, elevation, assistance and sym? pathy among farmers; for an interchange of thought, observation and experience, so that each may be benefited by the thought, observation and experience of all. Every one might bring something to read or to be read, ask some ques? tions, give some item of his own experi? ence new to the others if not to himself, and this at every meeting. If each member considered himself or herself re? sponsible for the interest of every meet? ing, what a centre of attraction our so? ciety would be, and what a vim it would add to our gatherings! Farming is not such a finished, dead and buried science that there is nothing new to be eaid about it. There bave been wonderful improvements made within the last few years, and who can say the future will not bring out still more wonderful things T Farmers, many of them, have been behind the times, at? tending to their own business, raising their crops, while sharpers made it their business to watch the markets, buy at the lowest price and sell at an advance, thus making money by their brain labor, often without lifting a finger, while the farmer perhaps loses or is barely paid for his hard labor, when, had he been better informed, he might have had the whole profit himself. We are instructed to adorn our homes, to make them attractive to our children, to buy more books, take more newspapers and magazines, so that we may compare favorably as a class with other classes. Now this cannot be done without money, and if our means are limited I see no way of inflating the currency in a safe and perfectly legitimate way except by purchasing our supplies at wholesale prices. We are assured we can do this at fifty per cent, discount; if so, and I have no doubt of it, it would have the same effect as making fifty cents worth a dollar to us. As to quality, the pur? chasers having a direct interest in the articles for their own use, would certain? ly aim to obtain the best. It is merely a question of putting fifty per cent, profit in the dealers' pockets or our own. If we can savo from ten to twenty dollars each family per year, which is, I think, within reasonable bounds, that would be from two to four hundred dollars per year for a Grange, which is certainly worth a little exertion. If any of you are in such easy circumstances that you do not feel the need of co-operation, you could obtain an article of as good a qual? ity through the Grange, and have half your money to bestow on charitable ob? jects, which abound on every side. I do hope all will feel it their duty and pleasure to unite in this work, which is intended equally for the benefit of each and every member of the Grange and for the exclusive benefit of none. A Grange without discussion of subjects, without the reading of selected pieces or eesays, without the interchange of ideas, expe? rience and observation, and without co? operation in financial affairs, is like the frame-work of a house?useless unless finished and furnished. Our Grange will be just what we make it; let us make it a decided success. STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, Anderson County. By W. W. Humphrey*, Judge of Probate. WHEREAS, W. H.

DOVEY Manarrcr, 64 K. Charles Street, Ualtirnore, 31 d. C. A. REED, Anderson, S. C. THE SUN FOR 1879. Tun Su.v will bo printed every day during the year to come. Its purposes and method will he the same as 1h the put: To present all the nevrs in a a readable shape, and to tell the truth though the heavens fall. The Sun has been, and will continue to be indc 5cndent of everybody and everything save the ruth and its own convictions of duty. That is the only policy which an honest newspaper need have. That is the policy which has won for this newspa? per the conlulcncc and friendship of a wider con* stltucncy than was ever enjoyed by any other American Journal. Thk St'n is the newspaper for ihe people. It is not for the rich man against the poor man, or for the poor man against the rich man, but il seeks to do equal justice to all the Interests in the commu? nity. It is not the organ of any person, class, suet or party. There need be no mystery about its loves and hates. It is for the honest man against tho rojuos cverv time. It is for the honest Democrat as against tlie dishonest Republican, and for the honest Republican as against the dishonest Demo? crat. It does not take its cuo from the utterances of any politician or political organization. It gives Its support unreservedly when men or measures are In agreement with the Constitution and with the principles upon which this Republic was foun? ded for the people. Whenever the Constitution and constitutional principles aro violated?as in the outrageous conspiracy of 187g, by which a ninn not elected was placed In the President's otllcc, where he still remains?il speaks out, for the right. That Is Thk Sun's idea of Independence. In this re? spect there will be no change in its programme fur 1879. Thk Sun has fairly earned tho hearty hatred of rascals, frauds, and humbugs of all sorts and sizes. It hopes to deserve that hatred not less in the year 1879, than in 1878,1877, or any year gone by. Thk Sun will continue to shine on tho wicked with un? mitigated brightness. While the lessons of the past should be constant? ly kept before the people, Thk Sun docs not pro? pose to make itself In 1879 a magazino of ancient history. It is printed for tho men and women of to-day, whose concern is chiefly with the lAlrt of to-day. It has both the disposition and the ability to allbrd its readers the promptest, fullest, and most accurate intelligence of whatever In the Wido 'torld is worth attention. To this end the re? sources belonging to well-established prosperity will bo liberally employed. Th4 present disjointed condition of parties in this country, and the uncertainty of the future, lend KB extraordinary significance to the events of the eomiBg year. The discussions of the press, the debat rs and acts of Congress, and the movements of the leaders in every section of the Republic will have a direct bearing on the Presidential election of ISSi)?an event which must be regarded with the most anxious interest by every patriotic American, what'.'rcr his political ideas or allegiance. To these clem, jita of interest may be added the probability that the Demotrais will control both houses of Con? gress! the Increasing feebleness of the fraudulent Administration, aud the spread aud strengthening every where of a healthy abhorrence of fraud in any form. To present with accuracy and clearness the exact Situation in each of its varying phases, and to expound, according to its well-known moth ids, t he principles that should guide us through tho labyrinth, will bean important part of Tiik Sun's work for 1879. We have the means of. making TiikSun, as a political, a literary and a general newspaper, more entertaining and more useful than ever before; and we mean to apply them freely. Our rates of subscription remain unchanged.
