The Grave of the Hon. Edward Whelan. ;'

To the Editor of the Examiner.

Srr,— Your correspondent, an unfrequent visitor to your city, after witnessing sowe _of the sports of the sons of ‘* Caledonia | stern and wild,” on Thursday, sirayed ‘nto the Catholic cemetry, contiguous to the grounds. Entering the city of the dead, the stranger is generally curious to rsad the names of its silent citryzens recorded on granite or marble. Moved by this feel'rg, I wardered hrough the sacred ground, wheu ‘my glance rested on a stone, the inscription of whieh awakened memcries of a name the utterance ef which is yet in many a house- held, breathed with respect and veveration; and as aga'n that eveving, elsewhere, that name arrested my attention you will please pardon this invasion of your eolums.

I stood over the grave of Edward Whelan whose name and that of Taz Examiner are. luked in indissoluble wnion. And sleeping in their little graves by the side of their fond -parect are his two little daughters ; the verses of fond affection on

loving heart of the. tearful father that mourned over the graves’of his darlings.

On the other side, rests in death the form of his only son, the last of his household pets, the ‘crowning grief of a widowed mother, now the only survivor of the house- hold, grouped in death beneaih the sod in the quiet churchyard.

The visitor to the grave of Edward Whelan fcannot but be moved with feel- ings of emotion of him. whose matchless tongre and pen were used for no base or sord'd mvtive, but the high and noble one of achieving for the oppressed the fight that | won the:e rights and libervies which are our | heritage ‘o-day.

When, that evening, I entered the Rink meeting and bebeld the name of him by whose yrave I stood a few minutes before, associated with the i’lesiriovs and eminent Statesmen of the liv ng present—with Sir Joba, Tupper, Til ey, and the other name* glisiening like stars amiast the beautiful pa‘otings of that evenivg’s meeting. I was pained to reflect that only a plain slab marks the resiing place of h'm whose name js thonght fit to be as-ociated with the jllasirieus rulers ef our young nation. °

lt is, I consider, a reproach that those for whem he Jabored have permittec such a length of tiave to pass without making an effort to erect a becoming monument to the me aory (f ope 50 worthy, for his public services, of this material evidence of a people’s gratitude.

Hoping to see, before many years,- this reproach removed and his nawe inscribed on something more e idcring than the ban- nerette at a policical meeting.

I am, etc.,

ViIstror.

Canadian Affairs in England,

GROWTH OF THE DOMINION—OANADA AS TBE LAND OF PROM S% TO TBE EUROPEAN YN- M:GRANT—-K®EPING STEP WiT«s THE STATES.

A London Times editoria! of the 18th, on ihe Canadian census, says it is one established fact that the whole West is growing very fast. The first few steps have been the hardest. A country which has long been declared hopelessly sterile by the only authorities supposed to knew anything about it, uow that it has been better explored, is found just the reverse of what was persistently asser.ed, The emigrants are begginning to press into it, and we may expect each fresh year to bring continually larger numbers. Can- ada is thus moving in parallel steps with the United Sta’es. In Canada there is almost an infinite potentielity of growth yet to come. The best laods of Canada have been left uvtil the last, and are to be had literally for the asking by any- body who engages to settle down on them, and do his part in bringing them under the plough. When the Canada Pacific is completed, and when the cous- try begins to fill, the Canadian Govern- ment will become less liberal in its offers. Its demand at present is for men, and it is bidding very highly for them, while the race is spreading over the country where the Indians until very lately have been almost exclusive occu- pants. The vast territory which once belonged to the Hudson Bay Company, and has now passed into the hands of the Canadian Government, is fast chang- ing its. natural products. A few years ago it yielded little except furs, and was stoutly held incapable ef yielding any- thing else. The evidence given by the officers of the Company is as astonishing as anything ou record, and contrasts siu-

larly with what is since know. as to the capabilities of the soil. The only question pow is as to the time need- ed for the long process of _ settling and cultivatiug the country. As this advances to completion the Indian must recede. He has held his ground in the West as long as undisturbed by the exni- grant, and if he is still to maintain him- self he must adopt new ways. The race is interesting as a survival, and we should be glad if it could be preserved, im- proved, ane brought into harmony with the new surroundings threatening it.

‘|Bhe improvable portion will be drawn into

the’ vertex of civilized life and cease to have an,;independent exisience in name, biood, aud.color. The nen-improvable por- tion wil} be pressed aside and driven fur- ther west, as long as there is a further west to receive it, until the last standing

‘|ground has been invaded and oceupied.

The Government of Canada may delay this , ate, but more than this. cannot. be hoped jfor. The most isveresting part of the Governor-General’s tour has not yet been made. _ He is still in an old country, in the midst of a settled population, with farms and farmyards on all sides, wth railways and beats to help him forward en his way. He will pass by-and-by through scenes of comparative desolation to the best corn- bearing country, but one too recently known to have been cecapied or turned te account—but to this part ef Canada the wwe wan for the future ‘attaches ; to | this the European emigrant is beginning to look hopefally. : F Ri

Relics of a Prehistoric Race Found in Iowa.

Cueroxer, Iowa, Aug, 18.—A few days sipce.a remarkable discovery of

county, in this State, which has excited

{considerable interest among scientists

and autiquarians. A party passing over a mound of earth in range forty-two, a locality net much frequented, owing to the broken and_ hilly character of the country, noticed that the late heavy raivs had displaced a considerable amount of surface soil and exposed a number of boves, They were at first supposed to be those of animals, and excited ne par- ticular attention, until one of the pariy noticed what appeared to be the top of a skull protruding from the earth. On removing the surrounding soil the suppo- sition was faund to be correct, and fur- ther exhumation brought to light a com- plete skeleton, Oa digging {urther into the mound, which was of an oblong form about six rods long by four in width, a arge number of other skeletous were brought. to light, showing that the tumulus was used as an ancient burying- ground.

The bedies had been buried in two layers, feet to feet, each having an earthen jar at his head, with one-half of a clam shell in it. There were seventeen skel- etons taken out eutire. The bones ap- pear to be of an ordinary size and in a good state of preservation. The pots in some instances could be taken out whole, but were generally soft and crumbled, although they had the appearance of hav- ing been glazed, and beeame quite hard and firm when exposed to the air. One of the skeletons of an immense size and apparently much larger than any of the rest was found iu a sitting position ; stone hammers, arrow heads, and some other implements were also found in or near the graves. Only a small portion of the mound has been dug into. There is an- other mound of a similar character on a high hill top not far distaut. The skulls are said to be extremely large, and every- thing goes to show that the occupants of the graves were much larger than either the Canadian race or the modern Ameri- can Indians. Scientific men who have examined the skeletons say that they differ in many essential respects from Indian remains, and hold that the builders of these mounds must have belonged to some ai cient pre- historic race which has now no living re- presentatives. Seme of the skulls were about twice the size of an ordinary skull, and the bones are proportionally .arge. The remains are similar to those receutly unearthed at the mounds at the Chain of Lakes, Wisconsin, by Professors Newkirk and Stockton, and strengthen the theory which largely obtains among ethnvlogists that the Indians were not the first occu- pants of this continent, but superseded a race considerably more advanced than themseives in the arts aud sciences, and of much larger build. Since the discovery a number of curious people from the neigh- boring country have ceme in to view the mound, and several scientific men from Chicago and ether places have arrived. The skeletons have been sold at high prices by the finders. One of the local clergy- men preached a sermon on Sunday last, in which he referred to these relics as con- firming the truth of Scripture with regard to the race of giants who existed in antediluvian times.
