Th. 4 _ .E. ,., offered at the present juncture in the no. ( 1. - ''. east forms a striking parallel to the first sta r of - rebellion—encounters everywhere, and the state of the country disturbed in proportion to the number of engagements fought: So far from quenching re bellion in rebel blood, the Russians are merely sow ing dragons' teeth, and creating a hundred avengers for every victi m kill e d. P rocee ding from the coun try towns they h a d b een quartt red i n , a nd search ing out th e i r f oes i n a circle of about twenty m il es , the Russia n commanders have only ascerta i ne d t h e position of th e enemy without being able to &- Btroy him.

Valenciennes' paper, viz., the discovery by M. Lernaire of a fossil tooth of the Megalosaurus in the formations of La Heim. Now, since this reptile was first discovered by Mr. Buck lan-i in 1822 in the great oolithic formation of Stonesfield, and 'afterwards found by M. Pidancet in keuper, or iodized clay of the Jurassic formation, it follows that the Megalosaurus must have existed on our globe during the whole immense space of time determined by these limits. After M. Valen ciennes had sat down, M. Elie de Beaumont pro posed that the whole paper, of which what had been heard was but an extract, should be inserted in the Memoirs de l'Acadealie, together with the Excellent drawings which accompanied it. ,~'` Sating out from th e S out h , I shall g i ve a h asty sketch of their Ulysian wanderings, which, if insufficient in other respects, will serve to show the general spread of rebellion throughout the length and breadth of the land. If an English memory can be expected to retain Polish names, the reader, I hope, is still aware of the existence of the Dom brows camp, about twenty miles to the east of Czenstochow. About the same distance to the west half a dozen encounters have taken place between the Russian vanguards and a Polish force stationed is the ironworks of Punkin. Forty miles further to the north, in the neighbourhood of Kalisz, we hear of repeated engagements at Opatobek, Pysz kow, Sieradz, and Winari. Notwithstanding the nearness of the insurgents, who have advanced y to the gates of Kalisz, a third part of the consisting of 1,500 men, has had to be marchedearl garrison, where the Warta-bridge has been burnt down by the Poles. A Russian force of 3,000 men , stationed n to Kolo, twenty miles to the north-east, at Konin, ten miles distant from Kole, had been unable to prevent the destruction'of the bridgc....- a misfortune which, in the swampy nature of the Warta banks, is sure to embarrass their future move ments. It may be observed here en pasw.ne that the unusual mildness of the winter has been profit able to the Poles, not only from the early dis3p pearanea of snow, but also on account of the abun dance of rain, and the constquent freshets in the rivers. Ia p country where, from the natural confi r guration of the soil, as well as ;he indolense atria inhabitants, every river is lined by a swamp, and - every morass begets a new river, this is a circum stance to be taken into serious account in calculat ing the chances of a spring campaign. Not only is the Pole more intimately conversant with the watery nature of his soil than the Russian, but, apart from national characteristics, in coping with simi ar dif ficulties the advantage will always be on the side of guerilla troops. Continuing our survey, we meet about the same distance to the north of Kolo as Kalisz is to the south the respectable town of Wioncla wek, together with the less pretentious township of Radziejeowo. Here lies the scene of the first appearance of Mieros lawaki on the revolutionary stage. As was the case with Prince Drogomirecki, the gallant general, finding himself confronted by superior numbers be• fore effecting a junction with the Kolo bands, was put to flight, and foitced to make the best of his way out of the district. His whereabouts for the pre sent remains unknown. The Polish bands distri buted over this region have also met with nume rous reverses. Near Isbica, half-way between Kolo and Wlonclawek, one of the patriot detachments, being caught in a wood, lost 50 men out of 500. Another band, about squally strong, was cut off on the way between Slupca and Konin, and nearly fell into the hands of the Prussian Hussars who lined the frontier ready to receive them. The affair, which may figure hereafter in diplomatic correspon dence, took place about 30 miles to the east of Posen. Receding from the circumference of the circle to the centre, the primary thing to be noticed is the continued occupation of the railway by the insur gents. Along the entire distance between Warsaw and Czenstochow the garrison of Petrikau, consist ing of 2,000 men and more, is the only representa tive of Russian power in this important quarter. The few engagements reported from this neigh bourhood have all occurred at a distance of 10 to 15 miles from the line, the insurgent garrisons at Rawa and Skirniwice remaining unmolested in the very sight of Russian troops. Of encounters given, those of Lodz and Brzezin may be mentioned more especially. In either case the Russians had the best of it. Looking at the undisturbed condi tion of the rebel ga rrisons along the line, the Poles, it may be conjectured, fought under particular dis advantages on both occasions. As a rule their want of success is to be easily t race d t o th e scarc it y o f experienced .leaders. Broken up, as , they are, into a hundred different handfulls, it is of course, impos- - Bible to provide au adequate number of cautious com manders for their scattered divisions; and adroit ness -being everything in guerilla tactics, the slightest mistake is but too frequently punished by surprise and defeat. I need not say that the same remark holds equally good with regard to the Rus- THE INSURRECTION IN POLAND. (From the 7intes' Correspondent.) POSEN, March 3. I have to record another complete change in the Russian tactics. The cautious policy of the Grand Duke Constantine has not been sanctioned by the Government. Orders have issued forth from St. Petersburg to reassume the offensive on every point and crush insurrection at one and the same time in all the provinces of the kingdom. The Czar, it appears, finding his Prussian treaty of little avail, is growing uneasy at the tardy progress of opera tionsin the South ; and with the Ides of March staring him in the face, has determined upon a game higher, it would seem, than his means allow him to . play. With this view Russian strategy relapses into the mistake which marred the beginning of the campaign. The more formidable bodies, being op posed by insufficient forces, are allowed to serve as a nucleus of rebellion, creating fresh corps by the opportunities they afford, and serving as a point d' appui in case of attack. The fight has been gene ralised once more, but the chances of victory, it is obvious, have been deferred father than otherwise by the change. The consequences of this vacillating course.have already heconie appaient in the south. Langiewicz is not to be crushed by the 15,000 men that had been concentrated in the triangle between Staszow, Kielce, and Czenstuchow. Ail it, was possible to effect with this considerable force may be related in very few words. One of the smaller bands in the immediate neighbourhood of the Vistula has been routed ; the outposts of the insurgents along the Austrian frontier have been pushed back towards the north, and obliged to effect a junction with I.ingiewitz, or the Dombrowa corps; and, as the principal result of the entire movement, Galician sympathisers will find it a little more difficult to import their revolver chests, or betake themselves bodily to Poland. Bat all this partial success, it is evident, can be regarded as important only in the light of a preparatory step. The bands in the south western earner of the kingdom having been forced together, the time had clearly arrived for dealing a decisive blow at the body, created by the combined movement of three operating columns. Acting upon this intention, and trusting in the speedy arrival of fresh auxiliaries, the Russian commanders allowed 10 precious days to elapse before proceeding to the attack of Langiewicz. At the expiration of this costly period, instead of the reinforcements they had been led to expect, an apodictic refusal was all they received from Warsaw. The tactics had been changed again by superior authority, the com manders of the individual corps being ordered to rely upon their present strength, and to proceed, under all circumstances, to precipitate attack. In the case of the three colonels directing operations in the south , east the execution of this order was beset with greater difficulties than any where else. Though disposing of a formidable power they had to deal with an enemy dangerous by military skill and the mountainous nature of the country; and, which added considerably to the toughness of the task, Langiewicz, foreseeing the attack, and fear ing a combined shock of the colonels, : reinforce ments and all, gradually advanced his troops to wards the west, taking up a position which allowed him to fall back upon the support of his Dombrowa friends. On the eve of the battle his corps formed a tactical unit with the troops of MM. Jezionenski and Zielinski, who had been despatched from Dam browa to meet him halfway on the road to Kielce. But the orders of the Russian colonel were peremp tory. Battle being offered and accepted, the result was a serious encounter, in which victory is claimed by either party. The engagement, which by the Russians is called the battle of Wloszow, while the Poles name it from the neighbouring place of Mato goszez, after raging for several hours, was broken off by the former,who retired northwards. The latest ad vices represent them as engaged with another Polish corps, under Czieskowski, which, proceeding from Dombrowa, came across the exhausted Muscovites as they retreated towards Czenstochow, falling upon them with the vigour which is the result of military confidence, and desirous of imitating the glorious example of the day before. Thefresh and impetuous force may be expected to complete the handiwork of their brethren in arms. Kans. The province of Plock is the only part of the country where aggressive movements have not been entered upon by the Czar. Shut in between War saw and the more easterly part of the Prussian frontier, the reduction of this district is sure enough after the defeat of the ()Niers. There is little sym pathy for the cause, but a whole army opposing it to be fouad on the other side of the border, while the thin population of the country and its remote ness from the centres of rebellion do not seem to augur any very dangerous rising in the absence of a repressive force. The existence, however, of a large number of insignificant bands is undoubted in this part of the kingdom also. The comparative quiet iu the north is contrasted all the more strongly with the turmoil to the east. M. Sokol—Anglice Mr. Falcon, a nom de guerre assumed on the model of all the more prominent leaders—has taken up a highly convenient, if not a very comfortable, position in the morasses of the Liwica, about 20 miles to the north-east of the capital. Instead of being destroyed at Simiatica, as General Maninkine would have us believe, we thus find the daring leader putting himself in the very jaws of the bear. Another, but less adven turous force, is to be met with at Brock, on the lower course of the Bug; while a third, roaming about Zelechow, has just repelled the Cossacks, and is advancing on Seidlce (about 30 miles to the east of the capital). An equal distance to the east of Sied Ice, the neighbourhood of Biala has witnessed the destruction of the force destroyed a fortnight ago by Colonel (now General) Nostiz. So runs the Itussiin bulletin. I shall not exhaust the patience of your readers by passing in review the events in the south-eastern province of Lublin. The fact of the re-assumption of the offensive suffices for our purposes. If adding that the vicinity of the fortresses of ZAMOSC and. Evangorod has been more especially subject to the Cossack raids, the reader will be able to form an idea of the weakness of the Russian Government in that particular quarter. The country between the two southern fastnesses, as well as the high road to Kiew, remains in the hands of the insurgents. The force occupying the latter has made good its title ' to the position by a complete victory near Dabienka. There is no want of interest in the abundant in telligence flowing in from Lithuania. Amid the immense forests of those pathless tracts a serious danger is brewing for Holy Russia. Once in pos session of the wood of Bialowice, insurgents have rendered themselves all but impregnable to the at tack of even a superior force. Stretching over a dis tance of 40 miles and more, and consisting to a con siderable extent of impassable swamp, this aborigi nal forest is about as well adapted for military ope rations as an Indian jungle n es ia t n ab a l m ish ar e s d h ih ' e r ra he_ or a have Guiana insurgents, it would appear , selves in different parts of this invaluable stronghold, f or th in every direction, have defeated. captive the neighbouring garr i sons a a n n d d , l s e a d ll a y w in a g y in rapid succession. At Pruzana, to the east of the wood, five hundred Russians have been relieved. of their arms; at Orla, to the west, the same fate befel a detachment hovering round its outskirts, while at Bystre, to the south, a conflict has taken place with Gen. Maninkino, which also ter minated to the advantage of the Poles. A number of other engagements are mentioned in the same neighbourhood, showicg the strength of the insur gent forces and the importance either party attaches to the locality. The strength in which the insur- gents appear never exceeds 500 or 1,000 at a time; yet the Russians have not dared to enter the wood, but seem to be quite satisfied by setting fire to the towns in the netgbourhood. They are now rein forced by a division of the Guards, who, destined originally fo r th e south, were diverted to Vilna, to be employed on a nearer and equally urgent scene of operations. In addition to the intricacies of the country, insur rection is here aided by the particular circumstance that the country not belonging to the kingdom of Poland, the disarmament had never been carried out with anything like the rigour evinced in the western satrapy. I do not stay to consider the probability or other wise of the bulletins issued on either side. Russian reports are long since condemned by the grossness of their self•contradiction. It is not a fortnight ago that they announced the province of Raaom, the scene of these sanguinary encounters, to have been cleared by their victorious columns; while, as re gards the insurgents, and the news they propagate, I have never been able to fall in with a bulletin in time to use its laconic contents. Thus much, how ever, may be set dowii as positive from the private news I have received, and the statements of the Cracow Czas, that the Warsaw telegram an nouncing the defeat of Langiewicz is no better than a myth, if, indeed, it is not something worse. Leav e ing alone, then, the number of killed and wounded, a grand fact emerges from an ocean of confused in telligence. Tne great blow has been dealt against General Langiewicz. The concluding step of a fort night's operations, a move in support of which the defensive had been originally adopted all over the kingdom, has been taken at length. And with what ia suit ? The revolutionary army of the South exists now as before. A body of rebels, hardly the Russians they oppose, has been able to its ground against the concentrated action of 10,000 men, supported by garrisons in the rear, and fight ing under the protection of a numerous artillery. At the end of the provincial campaign the Russians, instead of having at length confirmed their victo rious telegram, are falling back upon the 5,000 comrades they left at Kielce and Czenstochow on sallying forth to the battle-field. If small things may be mentioned at the side of great, a passing allusion ought to be made to a vic tory General Langiewicz obtained over a Russian column t wo days before the fight of Malogoszcz. Not that the engagement was in any way remark able from others that have recently abounded in the district ; but as the Russian column proceeded from Miechow, of fatal memory, the defeat they sustained on this occasion seems to be particularly calculated to prove the value of their preceding vic tories. Five hundred men strong, the detachment had been ordered to convey to Kielce the noblemen and other prisoners arrested at Miechow and along the Cracow frontier. They had not proceeded faron their way when, finding themselves in the defile of Ksionz, they were suddenly surrounded by a supe rior force, under the command of the active parti san. The rest need not be told. After a few s mo ments' fight there was a change of c h o ar l ihe t t l e e r w l: re tween the prisoners and the escort. movements of Gen. the Russians informed of the t in he av advantage e they Langiewicz, and so trifling derive from the restorationtia of their ascendancy indeed, is the use of along the frontier.. Vh holding Miechow. if I detaChment of 500 men can not be safely transferraed to Kielce, a distance of 50 miles, and the next garrison of any importance ? Th e prisoners thus released are the same whom Kurowski made an unsuccessful attempt to liberate at Miechow. Apart from the Austrian frontier, Russian autho rity in the south-eastern corner remains undis • turbed in the narrow strip right to the south of Czenstochow. The Russian movements reported from that quarter may be reduced, more or less, to the sporadic appearance of some sotnias of Coesacks between Czenstochow and the Prussian frontier. For the better understanding of imminent opera tions it may be also useful to remark that the camp of Drornbown, about 20 miles to the east of Czene tochow, seems to have been partly abandoned by the insurgents. Of the three Russian detachments ngaged at Malogaszcz, that of Colonel Ciengieri seems to have drawn off in the direction of Kielce, its original head quarters. Of Prince Bagrution and Col. Dehrowoleki, the leaders respectively of the Miechow and Staszow detachments, little can be ascertained beyond the fact of their having retreated to the north. Col. Aleniez, who had been ordered to proceed from Czenstochow and join the other columns on the eve of battle, finding Jezioranski in his way, was prevented making his a ppearance in time. And what is the compensation for this mishap , the Russians have secured in the rest of the coun [ADvmatsEatENT.l—Holloway's Pills,—Comfort for the A fflicted.— When the blood becomes impure throuv i breathing foul air, or through the imperfect p er f ormance of any bodily function, the greatest benefit will be deri•ired from these Pills, whose purifying, alterative, and ionic virtues are too well known to need any commendation here.

The presentation of Mr. Samuel Tillett, which took place at the Levee held by his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales on behalf of the Queen on the 25th ultimo, has been cancelled. _ _ STATE OF-TRADE. MANCHESTER, March yarns there has been rather more business offering than on Tuesday, and some descriptions are a shade higher in price. The demand has been rather more general, the in quiries proceeding from buyers connected with most of the export as well as home trade markets. At the same time the business has not been large, though it has been sufficient to check the down ward tendency of price, and to give a firmer tone to the market generally. In cloths there has also been a more cheerful-feeling, accompanied with considerable more business. There are a good many orders in the hands of agents, and the inquiry making with a view to the execution of these orders has of itselt tended to strengthen prices in some measure. There is still, however, a good deal of timidity among buyers, and the transactions have mostly been confined to small quantities as compared with the usual scale on which business is transacted in ordinary times. There seems to be an impression that, for the present, prices have touched the lowest point, and, notwithstanding the reluctance of pur chasers to give full rates, the holders as well as the makers of cloth appeared disposed to keep up to their quotations. For a c up aof days past. where sales have been made, the advantage has been slightly in favour of sellers. For f rst rate makes of cloth, some of which are held by manufacturers who have ceased to produce, a few sales are reported at the full rates for which such goods have been held since last September. The continued good accounts from Calcutta and Bombay, as well as a better tone in the cotton market, tend to encourage the improved feel ing hell) to-day ; and the nature of the business done has also been more encouraging than of late, the purchases to-day and yesterday being understood to be for export or home consumption, and not of a speculative character. It is reported also to-day that some of the mills which had recently recommenced work are again closed, so, that it is believed there will be a decrease of production. Most of the orders given out to-day, and the inquiries, have been for India, causing, among other light fabrics; a better demand for mulls. NOTTINGHAM, 6t I.—At this Exchange-hall to day there wee only a moderate attendance of mer chants and manufacturers. There was a rather better feeling in the demand for lace yarns, buyers being more willing to operate, and, as holders were less desirous to push sales, previous rates were sup ported. Hosiery yarns met a very dull sale, and prices were about the same as on Tuesday. Spun silk was very firm, other sorts unchanged. For brown nets the demand was flat, and prices were nominally unaltered. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

As respects the first resolution, your committee understand that the bean] consider the principle it enun ciates one which they are bound to carry out. A schedule of engagements entered into by the directors previously to the last general meeting has been laid before your committee, and remains with the board as a record for future reference These engagements are few in number, and do not involve any considerable pecuniary liabilities. The second resolu tion is accomplished by an arrangement made with the East Glocestershire Company to withdraw the bill now pending in Parliament; but, inasmuch as it appears that the Great Western and West Midland Companies were, to some ex. tent, parties to the promotion of the scheme, and therefore might be fairly expected to contribute towards the expenses incurred, the sum of £B,OOO has been arranged to be paid to the East Gloeestershire Company, in full of all demands. The third resolution is intended to be carried out by a clause in the Amalgamation Bill, by which the election of the new board will be vested in the shareholders, and a reconstruc tion of the board has been arranged by an undertaking of the present board to make vacancies for six directors, and to fill them up with an equal number to be selected by the committee and approved by the board.

The adjourned half-yearly meeting of this com pany was held yesterday at the London Tavern to receive a report from the scrutineers on the result of the poll on Mr. Sergeant Gaselee's motion against extensions, and to complete the business of the meeting—Mr. H. Love in the chair. Mr. 0 wen, the secretary.res a the report of Messrs. J. G. Morgan and Mr. C. Whetham, the scrutineers, on the motion of Mr. Sergeant Gaselee, seconded by Mr. Levy; 'from which it appeared 46 persons were present, representing £79,100 stock and 791 votes, were in favour of the motion ; against the motion 48 persons present, representing £223,900 stock and 2,239 votes, and also 217 proxies, repre senting £1,471,900 stock and £14,719 votes ; to gether, 1,265 persons and proxies, representing £1,695,800 stock and 16,958 votes were recorded against the motion, which was negatived. After some observations from Mr. G. SMITH Mr. MICHELL, Mr. BIDDER remarked that theconstitution of the Greet. Eastern Company was different from that of the Eastern Counties. No one could vote ate Great Eastern meeting unless he held at 1 ast £lOO stock, and he would have one vote for every £lOO stock held by him, whatever :he amount. Therefore the voting would not go by show of hands. He saw at the last meeting a gentleman put up his hand to vote who only held £lO stock ; he not only held up one hand but two hands, although he had no right to vete at all. One or that gentleman's hands would it , that way count for as much as that of another proprietor near him who held £72,600 stock in the company. Some gentlemen contended that the di rectors ought to be bound by the votes of the per sons present at the meeting, but in fact they did not represent one per cent. of the whole concern. For his own part he thought that was not sufficient to induce the directors to give up the prosecution of those necessary extensions. They could not a legal meeting of the company without £1,000,000 of stock being represented to form a quorum. If the proxies sent to the directors meant anything, they meant they were to be used to vote. He said the directors would meet any number of gentlemen having a stake in the concern, and go into the whole matter respecting the proposed extensions. He be lieved that these extensions were necestary to secure their traffic and develop the resources of the line. He should have failed in his duty if he had not ad vocated them. If the real voting of the proprietors had been in favour of the motion the directors would have adopted it. Mr. BEAVIS said he held £7,000 stockjii the com pany. He thought it would show that the poll taken was no criterion of the feelings of shareholders on the question of extensions, because he did not Tore. It was well known that a number of con tractors, engineers, and lawyers were interested in the company spending money in extensions, and he thought the directors ought to have exceeded the question on a show of bands. Mr. J. C. COBBOLD, M.P., proposed that Mr. G. Josselyn, of Ipswich, be elected a director in the room of Mr. S. Bigaold, resigned. Lord BURY, the other candidate for the vacancy at the Board, withdrew, and, in doing so, said he would avail himself of the next occasion. Mr. Serjeant GASELEE proposed as an amend ment that the election of a director be postponed for the present. He read letters from shareholders with a view to show that they had merely sent their proxies to the directors in answer to an application for enabling them to hold a legal meeting, and that they would have voted in favour of his motion and against any further extension. Mr. Josselyn was elected a director as a repre sentative of Eastern Union interests. On the motion of Mr. MACLAURIN the allowance to :he auditors was increased from £lOO to £l5O each per annum. The CHAIRMAN then announced that Captain Galton had made his award in respect of the East Suffolk Company ; it was to the effect that they were to give the holders of original stock in the East Suffolk £181,360 ordinary stock of the Great E•istein Company. Each party was to pay his own expenses. In consequence of this award they would send out the dividend warrants immediately. The only point now remaining was the award of Captain Galton in respect of the A stock. Mr. COBBOLD contended that they need not wait for the award to declare a dividend on the A stock, because if it were more than the award, the differ ence could be deducted, and if less, it could be added to the next dividend warrants. Mr. MAYNARD, the solicitor to the company, said that if the A stock should be entitled to less money than the proposed dividend, the Great eastern Company would bave no means of getting it back, ao that the only course was to wait until Captain Galion had made his award. On the motion of Mr. MORGAN, the allowance to the di-ectors was fixed at £4,000 a year from the date of the amalgamation. The meeting was made special, and the directors were authorised to guarantee the interest on a sum not exceeding £40,000 for the Bishops Stortford and Braintree Railway, and interest on £20,000 for the Ware, Hadham, and Buntingford Railway. The Great EAstern would work both lines when completed. On the motion of Mr. MACLAURIN the best thanks of the meeting were voted to the chairman for his conduct in the chair that day, and the pro ceedings terminated. RAILWAY BILLS, Yesterday the committee on the bill of the Lon don, Brighton,and South Coast Company's proposed extensions and alterations settled the clauses of the bill, the principal ones comprising the power to make a line between Camberwell, Horsleydown, and their enlarged London-bridge station ; also between Camberwell and Deptford; Lambeth and the West-end section of the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway ; Battersea and the West-end of London and Crystal Palace, at an estimated expense of £300,000. The preamble of the Midland Com pany's extension into London was passed in Mr. H4ssard's committee, leaving the clauses for con sideration on Wednesday. Mr. Langton, M.P., and others were examined as to the merits of the Bristol and North Somerset Railway; and the case for the Festiniog Railway was taken in the Aber ystwith and Welsh Coast Committee. A NEW FOSSIL TORTOISE. Last week M. Valenciennes, the distinguished palmemtologist, announced to the Academy of Sciences the discovery of a new species of fossil tor toise, discovered at }Lyre on the ground occa sionally left bare during the great tides of the Channel. This ground affords the geologist ample matter for research, being rich in skeletons of large reptiles, fish, and other organised bodies frequently of unknown genup and species. M. Lennier, con servator of the Havre Museum, succeeded some time ago in discovering a new species of ichthyo saurus named by M. Valenciennes Iclithyosaurus Cuiveri; and latterly M. Lennier has discovered the skeleton of a new fossil tortoise, remarkable for a very st r iki n g feature, viz., that of having nine ribs instead of eight. M. Vale nciennes has named it Palceochelys Novem eos tatus. It apears that ti animal was crushed to death b y some agent, having been found imbedded in a block of what was once mud and has now atta ined the toughness of the hardest marble. Its shield or shell had been broken in two along the vertebral column, and t h e right portion had slipped over the left. The head had been broken into many pieces ; some fragments, however, have been found between the shield and the sternum. The animal must have been nearly round, measuring 'lO centimetres (above 29 feet English). The smooth texture of its shell proves that the latter must have been covered by a akin 152 196 309 221 1,125 1,075 '234 224 1,234 1,306 1,425 1,584 1,555 1J.84 1,065 1,1.,5 6,t , 38 6.382 208 204 2,796 2,170 8,012 7,119 26,258 21,663 26,840 21,521 1,1 , 11 1,647 426 301 6,816 6,917 51,426 49.648 A 66 ;91 1,610 1,441 231 201 31,060 29.860 176 152 89 120 501 540 81,985 76,172 1,630 1,320 17,031 16.007 14,022 12,f 30 2,779 1,511 954 054 15,C98 13,557 4,063 1,030 1,283 960 2,166 38,0 0 64 35,903 5,313 5,135 1,531 1,579 2,404 2,264 311 864 132 30A 754 306 161 10,883 9,889 38,054 36,014 3,043 2,626 7,816 7,201 899 538 86.4 651 2,075 1,911 3,075 3,002 4,586 4,578 227 2.861 2,768 16,107 15,225 9, 0 78 7,059 5,805 4,875 1,798 1,004 130 1 2,031 2,101 3 3.5 345 1,24 1993 71 5 681 3,923 4,017 3 391 8 43 682 792 579 FOREIGN AND COLONIAL.
