Some excitemont, and considerable specula'
tion, says tho Corvallia (laxette, waa iKxasioued
in our city, kit Monday, by tho discovery of a
box containing Home teeth, decayed bones, etc.,
undoubtedly the remains of anine human being.
Whether malo or female, white or Indian, is
only a matter of conjecture. Tho box wm of
fir lumber, Kidly decayed, the top entirely gone
and bottom nearly so. Tlio Iki wa discover

neatly uiuMirthcd by the action of tlio water and
caving of tho bank of tho rivor, on tho Willam
ette, immediately lielow tho iiioutli of Mary's
titer. Who it Is, or how it cimio there, and
when deposited, will probably over remain n
mystery, as Mr. l'ryorcVott ho came hero in
ltvtA, onoof the tirstwhlto men, to visit tho
present ito of Marysville, (now Oorvallis), has
no knowlodge of any one ever being buried
there. Tho box is 5 feet 4 inches in length.
Hut whether tho remain were those of a male
or female, grown, or otherwise, cannot bo do
tcrmincd, from the decayed condition of the
bones, absence of tho skull and many promi
nent portion of the skeleton. It Is quite prob
able that it waa a person, from tho fact that
piece of clothing, consisting of very fine cloth,
lu quite a good state of preservation, were
found in the box. No hair was discovered-
having len washed away, doubtless, by tho
action of tho water.
I. S. Since tho above was in typo, Mr. Jas
per Trimble and Henry Kin rick came into our
olfice bringing five piece of silver coin three
American half dollars two dated 18.1(1, the
other nut legible, and two quarter dollars, ono
Ihiglith and tho other Spanish, dated 18.14 and
1830 respectively. A portion of a net silk
Eurse partly enclosed the same; also a one
laded buck-horn knife, two porcelain shirt
bnttons, and somo tin foil, such as chewing to
lacco is wrapped in all found in tho box im
bedded in dirt.
From tho above contents, it Is almost certain
that it was a malo but the mystery remains
tho same.

On Tuesday last Sheriff K. J. Jeirery was
directed to proceed to tho vicinity of Mt.

named Ilobcrt Campbell, whoso head-i turned

examined before tho County Judge and ad
judged insano and directed to In) taken to the

and when tho ShcriU" stepped into an adjoining
room to get them, Mr. Campbell quietly walked
away, rartie were at oneo sent in reared of
him, but up to tho present time ho ha not

lie will soon !c recap tun J and placed in tho

early to commence operations, and when it

dering nltout tho stteets with no place to sleiqi.
Her story is strange, jet from its simplicity
must lx) true, and is as follows) Soini lite
wks ago sho camobt this cilv Ifom North

gain for herself an indvtendent livelihooil. She
securetl a situation in tho residence of Mr.
Wolf, who resides near ltoblnon's Hill, wheto
she remained for several weeks. At length
sho km discharged, and went to tho St. Charles
Hotel, where" slio nmaincd for several days.
Iking without money with which to v her
board, ou Monday cveuing she left that hotel
andwa cast upon the street, where sho was
found by a policeman. Tuesday morning sho
wa taken to the Norton llouo, where she
till remains. It is lur desire to secure, if sho
ran, a situation in soma family as servant, in
order to corn a living. If sho continues to
meet with tlio success she hail for tho past few
days it is an easy matter to conclude where she
will finally tiring n ll seems sirango inn
that a father and mother would allow their
daughter to come t this city friendless and
penniless, to strive for a living amid tho snares
and temptation of city life; they aro cither
