Dr. FuhriT, archaeological surveyor in the north vtern provinces of India, has mado a discovery which seems to carry the origin of Buddhism much further back than the accepted date in the fifth century before Christ. Iu thu villago of Nijlva, in .swamps within the borders of the state of Nepal, he found un Asoka pillar, surrounded for half a milo by vast brick ruins of monasteries and of a still magnificent domed tomb of Koualcamana. The portion of the. pillar which is still erect has an in scription establishing tho, fact that the Buddha commemorated $s the iaiile as the Kuimkiirnaim of the Buddhists who was tho 23rd mythical predecessor of the historical Buddha. Tho Ncnalese i speak of the pillar as the, smoking 4v ""ijJLoi;"j tneir gm'jt nerp. xhe native durbar, or council, is to be asked to sanction a scientific j investigation uf tho ruins of this onco great settlement of tHo Aryan tribe of Sakyaa, who settled 112 miles to the northeast of the city of Benares at a date hitherto only con jectural. Gen. Cunningham, who under Lord Canninc. becran the ,arcKaelogTcal survey of India, long ago identified Kapilavastu, in this "region, as the birthplace of the historical Gautama, and tho capital of theSakya. clan. It is in the district now called must have extended northward into Nepal, which i3 still 9econd in sacredness ,only to Benares. Nepal has now a serious dispute with the Llama government of Ishasa on its hands, and is always jealous of British or foreign visitors. But Bhould the government of India not discourage its proposed campaign in Thibet, tho durbar may be vfilljng to help Dr. Fuhrer to dig on aj sufficiently great scale. Nepal is almost as little known as Thibet, although it is a protected state of the government of India, and it seems time that it was opened, 'as Kasmir has been, to the savant and tho traveler.

Twigg, a young English farmer, has secured a large tract of land iu Kentucky, near Richmond, and announces that he has cstab lished a 'possum farm. Were he a Yankee, it would be suspected that the announcement of the 'possum ranch was part of -a scheme to colonize tho adjacent district with colored people, possible buyers of small tracts of land. But Mr. Twigg is sard'' to be quite sincere in his undertaking, having figured out that, as 'possum is considered delicacy as to command fancy prices, there is money in tho scheme. lie has under advice of an experienced old colored gemman, who has assured him that "the 'possum am a very dainty eater," planted on the ranch a large number of persimmon and haw trees, and hazlenut bushes. He has started in withk20 Opossum in the warren, and, calculating upon the remarkable fecundity of the animals, expects by next fall to bo able to supply the Louisville demand at least. A similar experiment is being made in the cultivation of rabbits in Sullivan county, this state. The difficulty is to secure food for the growth on a limited reservation, and ultimately animals overruu the surrounding country and become a pest, as for instance, tho opossums of Long Island. N. Y.
