Mr. James Lumley, an old Rocky
Mountain trapper, who has been step
ping at the Everett House for several
days, makes a most remarkable state
ment lo us, and one which, if authenti
cated, will produce the greatest excite
ment in the scientific world.
Mr, Lumlt-y states that about the
middle of September, he was engaged
in trapping in the nountuins, about
seventy live or a hundred miles above
the great falls of the Upper Missouri,
and in ihe neighborhood of what is
known as Cudutte l':tss. Just after
sunset, oho evening he hf-held a bright
luminous body in the heaven, which
was moving with great rnpidny in an
ea?terly direction. It was plainly visi
ble for at least five seconds, when it
was suddenly separated into pirtieles,
resembling, as Mr. Lumley describes
it. the bursting of a sky-rocket in the
air. A few minutes later he hoard a
heavy explosion, which jirred th earth
very perceptibly, and this was shortly
after followed by a rushing sound, like
a tornado sweeping through the fores:.
A strong wind sprang up about the same
time, but as suddenly subsided. The
a peculiar ouor
. r. ill -.v ! i
oi a suipnurous cnaratter.
These incidents would have made but
a slight impression on the mind of Mr.
Lumley, but for the fact that on the en
suing day he discovered at a distance
of about two miles from his camping
place, that as far as he could see in
either direction a path had been cut
through the forest, several rods in width
giant trees uprooted cr broken oil"
near the ground the t-ps of hills shav
f d off, and the earth plowed up in many
places. Great and wide spread havoc
was everywhere visible. Following
up this track of desolation, he soon as
certained the cause of it, in the shape
of an immense s'.one that ha 1 been
driven into the side cf a mountain.
Hut now comes the most remarkar.de !
part of the story. An examination of
this stone, or so much of it as was vis
ible, showed that it had been divided
into compartments, and that in various
places it was carved with carious fiirro'
glypn'cs. More than this, Mr. Lumley
also discovered fragments of a sub
stance resembling glass, and here end
there dark stains as though caused by
a liquid. He is confident that the hier
oglyphics were the work of human
hands, and that ihe stone itself, although
but a fragment cf an immense body,
must have been used forborne purpose
by animated beings.
Strange as this storynppears, Mr.
Lumley relates ii with so mueh sincer
ity that we are forced to accept it an
true. It is evident that the s'.one which
he discovered was a fragment of the
meteor which was visible in this section
in September last. It will be remem
bered that it was seen in Leavenworth,
in Galena, and ;n this city by Colonel
Bonneville. At Leavenworth it was
seen to separate in particles or explode.
Astronomers have long held, that it
is probable that the heavenly bodies are
I inhabited even the co.nets and it
j 'y be that the meteors are used as a
j means of conveyance by the inhabitants
! of oilier planets, in exploring space,
end it may be that hereafter same fu
ture Columbus, from Mercury or Ura
nus, may land on this planes by meani
of a meteoric conveyance, and take full
possession thereof as did the Spanhh
navigators of the new world in 1-102, ! ion? as ine contest was uouwtui, tne

that there must be a race superior to us,
and this may in some future lime be j
demonstrated in the manner we have
indicated. St. Louis Dem

Jackicn, Jliss. : The troops will be
withdrawn from MN.-ifsippi when, in
the opinion of th Government, peace
and order and the civii authority has
been restored rr.d can be maintained
without them. Evei y s.:cp will be taken
while they are there, to enforce strict
discipline and subord 'nation to the civil
authorities. Ther- can be no ether cr
greater assurar.ee given, than has here
tofore been, cn the part of the Presi
dent or government. There h no con
cession required on the part cf the pen
pie cf Mississipj i, or the Legislature,
other than a loyal euinj liance with the
laws and Con.-ti'.ution of the United
State, and the adoption of such meas
ures as will give protection to all freed
men cr freemen, i:i person v.ivl proper
ty, without regard to color as will en
title thorn to resume all their constitu
tional relations w iih th Federal Union.
The people of Mi.-cissippi may feel
well assured that there is no disposition
to prove aibitrary on ihe part of the
Government to dictate what action
should he had; but, on the contrary, to
simply and kindly advise a policy that
is believed will result in restoring all
the relations which should exist between
the States comprising the Federal
Union. It is hoped 'that they will ap
preciate, mid fee I the suggestions here
in mad.?, for they are offered in that
spirit which should pervade ih bosoms
of all those who desire pace and har
mony, or1 a thorough restoration of the
Union. There imtt be confidence be
tween the G-:vi rnment and the Slates;
and while the Government confides in
the people, lliB poopla must have faith
in the Government. This must be mu
tual and reciprocal, or all that has been
done wfl be thrown away.
