The antiquities of the county consist of mounds, of which there are but few extaut. One is still seen on the form of Ah. Connell, one and a half miles northeast of Connersvile-on oblong inclosure with openings of inter- vals, which were probalily closed up when necessary to prevent ingress by on enemy. It comprises four or five acres. It must be of great age, as, on the earth embunknient thint encircles the basin, trees as large us uny in the sur- rouliding neighborhood are groning.

Another mound is situated on the topurost pinnorle of the range of bills bordering on the White Water, to the urst of Connersville, commanding a vieir for miles vround. Numerous skelelons were found in a sitting posture surrounding a gigantic skeleton eucosei) in a cement casket.

The above named Ab. Courvell and write may also be mentioned as among tho antiquities of the county. They come here ot o very corly day, oud hovo grown up and identified themselves with the interests of the commit. nity. Mr. Conwell was born in 1796, and has been married to his present wifo fifty-five years. Thiry amuse themselves as in younger days by a game of enrils of evenings, do not know of an uilment in foot, orm, stomoch or liend, ull u orkssmoothly nod withoula jar, and they say their lives bare biru rough but boppy.

RAILROADS.

Tho Madison Division of the Jeffersonville, Madison & Indianapolis Rail- road runs through the northwestern corner of the county. This is nick- nameil the Cahiro Houd by the people, from the foet, as they say, that ivbile it was building, the workmun were trostly paid in calico. The Cincinnati & White Water Valley Road, running from Cincinnati to Hogerstown, eighty- eight miles ; tho Fort Wayne, Muucie & Cincinnati Koilroad, from Conners- ville to Fort Wayne, one hundred and eight miles ; and the Cincinnati, Hat- ilton & ludinnapolis Ruilronil, from Cineinonti to Indinoupolis.

The While Water Conal was connuruced nt Lawrenceburgh in 163t, ond cotupleted to Connersville iu 1843. In 1846, it was completed lo Cambridge City. This, instead of realizing the bright ideals of its projectors, proved, on necouut of numerous disastrous floods oud the appronch of the railroad eru, a failure. After being used asn caual twenty years, it wos nbandoned as suth and its tou path is used for the bed of the White Water Valley Railrood, Obil its wiiter for hydraulic purposes only. For this, however, it is very rulunble. Numerous manufacturing establishments are located upon its banks, nud it supplies the town of Cobuersrille with its water for fre ond other purposes.

At Wawasso, eight miles below Connersville, are the Bremoker, Moore & Co. paper-mills, run by the above hydraulics. Thirty thousand (00,000) pounds of nens und book paper are mibufactured per duy.

It is beautifully located on an elevated pintrau thirty feet ubole the but. tour lands of the White Water, aud is surrounded on the west and southwest by hills 200 feet abovo this plateau. These hills nre rich elny soils, thickly wellled and well improved, and from thrin is oblained a fue view of the sur- rounding country. It uns Juid oul, in 1813, by John Conner, one of the first bettlers, on Indiau tinder und on influential man, both with the whites and Indians, and he was employed in umuy responsible positions in the affairs of those ilsys. In 1810, in order to deteat the Lostile designs of the Slinn . ner J'rophet and Trenrosch, to counteract the influence of British Iraders and to maintain picior relations with the fudion tribes of the West, Grn. Morrison sent messengers to the Prophet's toun, aut atuing them was John Conuer, nho look mul dehierel a message from Gen. llurrison lo Te- cunisch, in the presence of his brother, the Prophel.

HENDRICKS COUNTY.

'I'lus county is situated near the center of the State, und is bounded north by Boone, east by Marion, south by Morgan, and west by Putnam ond Mont- gomery Counties.

The general surface of Hendricks County is considerable higher than that of the adjerent counties, and is, therefore, well provided with natural drain- nge, and boy a porous and vasily cultivated soil. Asn general thing, the sur- faceis rolling, though considerable portions of it are quite level. It produces excellent crops of irheat, corn, ond blue grass, and ranks high as on ogricul- tural county. Along the crecks and streams there is mome broken land ; but ouly a very smull pereeutage of the county is unfit for successful cultivation.

The streumy, uhich afford obubinnee of water for all practical purposes, nre: Eel Rner, Mill Creek, Mud Creek, White Lirk Creek, and their trib- utaries. Eel River, the principal stream, runs diagonally through the north. ern part of the county, and empties its wofers into White River, the most Important tributary of the Wubash in the central portion of the State. Fel Rirer furnishes considerable arailable water-power for manufacturing pur- poses.

llendricks l'ounty is well supplied with timber of an excellent quality, large quantities of which are manufactured into lumber and sinves, the Intter particularly in the northern part of the county.

The surface geology of the county is ihat of the drift deposit-there bring no exposure of sione suitable for building purposes. but an abundance of clay for the manufacture of bricks. The pebbles and boulders are not Inrge, nor are they thickly disposed near the surface, the drift being covered by a deep und rich allurinl soil, and in some places by a clay Joam. Both the soil and climate of the county, besides being udopted to the various cereals aud vegetables, are suitable for fruit-culture, and apples and pears especially, do well.

The large number of water courses, which niconder through the county in nearly all dirrrtions, together with the peculiar adaptation of the spil to blue grass and other grasses, which here grois spontaneously, as also the cultivated varieties, gire llendrieke County superior advantages for the mais- ing of stock. The trode in this product of the agricultural districts is con- sideruble.

ANTIQUITIES.

In Center Township, about a mile and a half south of the town of Danville, there is a curious relie of the Sound Builders, consisting of s circular mound, something in the shape of a coue Hoffened at the top ; tho base circumference is about fifty rods, and it has an ultitude of about thirty feet. On the top of the mound. und in every direc- tion around il for several hundred yards, have been found stone and flint implements and other curious relics of o pre-historio people. In near proximity to this ancient castle of the Mound Builders, or tomb, or whatever it may be called, there is n large spring or fountain of water. Did these ancient Dorivinion connecting-links beliveen the lower orders and the abo- rigines of this country-the Mound Builders-live by this spring and drink its waters, in the oges of the mummuth and the cave-beor ?

LABLY SETTLEMENT.

The first permanent settlemruts in Hendricks County were made in the southeast port, in ubat are now Liberty and Guilford Townsbips, in 1821-2. Among those who first pitched their tents (log cabins; in ibis quarter, were Jolin nud Joseph Bollard, Jawes Nichols, David Demies, Samuel Jessup, sod Noah Botrman. These were not only all native Americans, but Kentuckians also. Here Jubu Ballard first reared bis cabin in the wilderness, and endured bordsbips and privativas, which we of this generation know nothing about. Those were also duys of happiness, of simplicity of living, of good rbeer, of reul fun oud merry-making, of houesty nud frugality, which put to shame these days of extravagance and corruption; the hospitality of the curly pioneer, whose " latch string" always hung out, is proverbial, and what more delightful for those who still cherish renuniscences of cabin fires, "log-rolling." "and " huskings, ' thau to get together and talk over " old times ?" To Jobp Ballard belongs the honor of having made the first ** im- prorements" in Hendricks County, in 182). Six years passed away before there was u mill in the county-that is, a mill on a will stream, driven by water ; there might buvo been " mortars" and " horse-mills". The people. for the most part, ueut to the older counties to get their grinding done, after long journeys over swampy, muddy and bridgeless rosds, and tedious wait- ing for ibcir "turn" to come. The mill erected by one Benson, on Fel River, in IN !;- the first water mill in Hendricks County-it is said, hud n rapacity for grindiog only Ino bushels of wheat per doy ; still it was h great relief to the curly settlers.

In 1829, the settlers began to provide for education. In this year, the first school Louso was erceted by Col. Thomas Nichols. It was of small di mensious-too smoll to bo divided into mpartments, like our modern school houses, nor nas there any need of it, for one small room enclosed by logs, Ivith the cracks " chinked aud daube," nay sufficient to hold all the children there were in those days to go to school. "The Hoosier Schoolmaster's" occupation in those days was hot lucrative, por uns it n spvere strath upon tho meulal copabilities.

Tho Baptists organized the first chureb in the rouutr, ot Daurille ; tho date we have not been able to obtain. The first post ofice was established iu Danrillo in 1826. Thomas 1, Giran, long a merchant in Panville, was the pioneer in thut department, opening the first stock of goods at an early duy. James Rej nolds bad the honor of taking out the first marriage license,
