DISCOVERY OF HoUsE UNDER GROUND IN IRELAHD.-An underground house was discovered last week, near the old road leading from Newbliss to Monaghan, and about three miles from the latter town, in perfect state of preservation, most curi- ois relic of antiquity. A man who lately got pos session of the farm upon which it is situated went to remove unsighty hillock in small meadow close to his house; this little field had been reclaimed Il few years after the rihad been cut on it, and from it to the small lake of Keshan, (abou three hundred yards below t,) was, in ihe memory of old man living it, continued heath moor, with several spades deep of turf cut on tho hillock which formed the roof of the house. The wall is 46 feet by about l6. Outside the entrance is semi-circular yard the base of the wall surrounding well

 all the outer walls, is composed of large rough stones, of them seyera tons weight, standing on their ends something like Stouehenge. The en- trance divided the sem-circuar wall into two equal segmen's, and formed with two larger stones than the others, sufficiently apart to admit with ease. Inside the entrance was an oval apartment, about l2 feet by s, which was arched over from t-

 in feet of the base. The arch composed of flat stones of different sizes, so carefully selected and fitted (hough there not cut stone in the whole building) that the point of penknIie could scarcely be inserted between them. Each stone projected about quarter of an inch the underneath one, until they the top of the roof, which about

The whole of the floor inside fagg- ed with slabs of the same stone, and the outside of the roof covered with the materia which Is the most remarkable circumstance connected with it, ds the nearest free-stone quarry is Carronmore tain, in Fermanah about 20 miles from this place. and the stone there does not split into slabs, and is of quite different grain, the former exactly resembling the Scotch sandstone found along the Clyde. Some maintain that this antique piece of architecture must b, nntcduyian; but the circumstance ofthe interior having been found perfectly clean, with the exception of the juice of the bogsa covering il, having trek
