Oct. 16. 1858, tf SCOTTISH AMERICAN JOURNAL. Second Volume, Gtli N"ovember, 1858. IN announcing a new volume of the Scottish Amer ican Journal, the Proprietor begs to call atten tion to those features of the paper which have already secured for it a large share of support, and which ought to commend it to the patronage of a still more numerous class of readers. The special feature of the paper is that it is a Scot tish, journal, containing notices o1' every event occur ring in Scotland that can be regarded as of the least interest to natives of the country now residing on this coutinent. The news of the whole eountry is careful ly collected and condensed, so that no event which it concerns Scotchmen to kno v is ever omitted from the columns of the paper. Articles relating to Scottish subjects, original and selected, are also published from time to time and the more special character of the Journal is sustained by literary features of national interest in the form of tales, historical and miscellan eous sketches, anecdotes and poetry. While thus national in its character so far, these special features occupy comparatively limited space in the eight large pages of which the paper consists, three-fourths of which are devoted to news and other general matter calculated to be of interest to all clas ses of readers, and not to Scotchmen alone. A care fully compiled epitome of intelligence from England, Ireland, the continent of Europe, and all parts of the world is given in every number, with extracts from the leading articles of the British Journals on the most interesting public topics of the day. With a view to increase the popular interest of the 4i Scottish American Journal," nd to add to its val ue as a family paper, arrangements have been made for a series of attractive tales, founded chiefly on sub jects connected with Scottish life. The first of these stories, entitled ' Clara Howard : a tale of the Cri mean War," commences with the first number of the new volume. A considerable instalment of the storv will be given in every number till it is completed, and it will form interesting readinsr for the winter ed bv a succession ot other tales ot equally popular character.

I FAYETTEVILLE, N. C. Strange things to be Seen in New Metric o Interesting Relics. From a letter to the Washington Slates, by a correspondent in New Mexico, we make the following interesting extracts. II ow few of eur people are aware of what wonders are to be fob nd in the vast territory of tbe Great West: The Country in the Vicinity of Fort Defiance. The country in this vicinity has a number of deep and frightful chasms or canons. Immediately at this fort there is one of about a mile long, and its walls of solid rock are about Cveiandred feet high. Canon de Challey, from which Col Miles bat recently tetuTtred on a scout against the Indians, killing six or eight, and taking 5,000 sheep, is a wonderful phenom enon. It is about forty miles north-west of this place, is forty miles long and 300 yards wide, with walls of Ihnty rock rising up 1,500 feet, in majestic grandeur, as if to pillar the very heavens. Horses and men, standing upon these towering spires, are represented as ap pearing like rats and pigmies. Stones thrown down at the troops by the Indians break into pieces by the resistance of the air. and arrows discharged come down horizontally, from the force of gravitation . A pistol shot is echoed and re-echoed by the adamantine walls, and rings in the ear lor minutes afterward. The appearance of the canon, as one gazes up and about, thus sunk a thousand feet into the bosom of the earth, and walled by huge and rugged rocks, is said to be terribly grand and frightful. Tn these deep openings the Indians plant grain, peaches, mel ons, etc , and in times of difficulty, take their flocks and women and children. ' They seem, however, to have anticipated the march of the troops upon this one, and consequently not a great many Indians, no horses, and, but 5,000 sheep were found. Petrifaction. The officers of the scout re port having seen great quantities of siliciGcd wood ; arge tres completely transformed into silex and others in a particular state were a bundant. The silex was quite sulphuric, and emitted fire freely by contact with iron or steel A Hace of People Destroyed by Voi.caS'ic Eruption. Numerous stones of rare quality and beauty were seen, and immense quantities j of broken pottery were strewed in every direc-1 tion. This latter fact favors the supposition that a race of people once inhabited t is coun-j try, who were either destroyed by volcanic eruptions and earthquakes, or have ceased to exist by gradual deterioration. All through the territory are to be found Aztec ruins, and it is not unreasonable to presume that a supe rior race to the present at one time were spread crver ttils country."" TJlirxriTs IS a Snoject " wliTeh' I leave for the speculation of the more learned and scientific. Volcanic Ercf-tioks and Cratf.ss. In the valley of the Gallo a creek which flows from a beautiful crystalline spring, gushes up from an immense bed of rock there is a large de posit of lava, exhibiting evidence of having flow ed down the valley in a stream of fearfcl force and volume from a distant mountain, whence it was erupted. Indeed, craters exist all through the country, indicating that at one time this region must have been shaken and torn to pie ces by volcanoes and earthquakes. From the data furnished by scientific examination, the most recent volcanic discharge must have been as late as three centuries back. This stream of boiling lava must have been fifty feet deep and as many wide. It seems to have rushed on until it gradually1 cooled and hardened, and thus was formed an abrubt ter mination to its progress. The forms of the waves can be seen plainly. The dark, iron-like substance would appear to the naked eye to have been erupted within the last century ; but, as before stated, it could not have been dis charged short of three hundred years ago. It is a singular sight, indeed, and is a field for in finite wonder and speculation. Relics of a Former People. Throughout this country relics of a former people and ruins of towns are to be found in great quantities. The deep chasms in the earth, the singular and terrific attitude of rocks and canons, too clearly indicate the awful upheaving and tearing as under which at one time must have visited here, and point to a race of people buried beneath this chaoiic mass of disorganized nature. The few streams which now and then gladden the sight of the thirsty and wearied traveler through these barren hills and parched valleys are yet strongly impregnated with sulphur. And while springs babble up chrystalline and beau tiful, they not. unfrequently serve to create rather than allay thirst. The Ashes of Columbus. A cathedral in Havana claims the honor of sheltering the re mains of the great navigator. A receut travel er thus describes the place : " A mural tablet in the choir, on which is a bust of the illustrious Genoese in alto-relief, informs the public that all that is mortal of him reposes there ; that while he has left the coun try he discovered to be the home "of prosperous millions, he has made a voyage to a still more distant land, from which no traveller returns. One of the officials, who had an eye to business during the services, presented me with a print ed card, telling the story of the hegira of these illustrious bones. Though.Columbus died at Valladolid, in Spain, his remains were not per mitted to rest there. They were first trans ported to a Carthusian Monastery at Seville ; next they were removed across the seas to St. Domingo, and finally they were disinterred and brought to Havana. " Here in the Antilles, with which the dis covery which has rendered his name immortal has so intimate a connexion, it is fitting that his dust should repose. The land which his heroism revealed to an astonished and admiring world, may well afford hiin room wherein to sleep his long sleep." spent upwards of $44,000 for the reliefTot be sick and destitute, during the receut yellow fe ver epidemic in that city.
