Last week two labourers employed in digging
gravel in the pits at. Middle-hill, near Bath, dis-
covered two elephantine tusks, one 15 feet below
the surface of the earth, the other 10; the former
was in a state of too °mach decay to be preserved ;
the latter, measuring nearly five feet in length, was
taken up almost lit • perfect state, and is now in
ths possession of the Rev. W. C. COLTON, of
Middle-hill.
The Wellington eoech was nearly upset on Mon-
day week, at the north-end of Chester-le-street, in
consequence of the horses taking fright at the divi-
sion of the 7th regiment of foot, then on its march
to Chatham. The coachman was thrown from his
seat, and the guard and two outside passeugera,
alarmed for their safety, leaped from the coach as
the horses turned rapidly round to gallop back Mtn
the town. They dragged the coach over several
heaps of stones sad along the bridge. and did not
stop till one of the wheel horses lamed himself by
getting his leg over the pole. which was broken.
These were no inside passengers, and the coach
maintained its upright position.
