DISCOVERY OF
_ANOTHER
.CAV f CONTAINLVO

A.VTEDILUVI.I.2V BONE-S.

Otroan, N0v.14.

An immense assemblage of fossil bones has recently been disco.
vered in rlomersetshire, in a cavern of the limestone rock, at Ban.
well, near the west extremity of the Mendip Bills, on the property
of the Bishop of Bath and Wells. The circumstances which led to
this discovery are as follow :
Some miners, engaged in sinking a shaft in search of calamine.
intersected a steep and narrow fissure, which, after desetedng
act, opened into a spacious cavern, 15(1 feet long. and aboat :hit feet
wide, and from 30 to 30 feet high. from the difficulty of deseend•
log by this fissure, it was lately judged desirable to make an °per..
ing in the side of the hill, a little below, in a line which might lead
directly to the interior of the cave. This gallery had been coeiducted
but a few feet, when the workmen suddenly penetrated another
cavern, of infenor dimenaions to that width they were in search of.
and found its fluor to be tanned, to a depth which has not yet been
ascertained, with a bed of sand, mud, and fragments of limestone.
through which we'd dispersed an enormous quantity of bones, horns,
and teeth. The thickness of this mass has been ascertained by
shaft sunk into it to be in one place nearly d 0 I've. Many large
baskets full of bones have already been tstratt.Yl, belonging chiefly
tote ono and deer tribes: of the latter there are several varieties,
including the elk ; there are also a few portions of the skeleton MA
wolf and of a gigantic bear. The bones arc mostly in a state of sae-
seryation, equal to that of common grave bones; bnt it is clear,
from the fact of some of than belonging to the great extinct species
of bear, that they are of antediluvian origin.
In the roof of the cave there is a large chimney-like oeenine
which appears to have communicated fermerty with the sortace, bit
which is choked up with fragments of limestone, interspersed wit::
mud and sand, and adhering together imperfectly by a seatagmett:
incrustation. Through this aperture it is probable tLe animals
fell into the cave, and perished in the period preceding the inunda-
tion, by which it was tilled up. The immense quantity of the bones
shows the number of individuals that were lost in thts natural pit-
fall to have been very great. In this manner cattle ate now conti-
nually lost by tilling into similar apertures in the limestone hills in
Derbyshire.
There is nothing to induce a belief that this Wll a then inha-
bited by hyenas, like the cave of Kirktlaie ; or by bears, like
those in Germany. Its leading circumstances are similar to those
of the macaw cavities in the limestone rock at Oreston, near Ply.
mouth.

The cave at Batista' has within then few days been examined by
Professor Buckland. and operations have been commtncid tar the
purpose of thoroughly investigating its history and contents. The
Bishop has already sent collections of the bones to the Museums of
Oxford and Cambridge, and intends to provide a similar supply for
all the principal public institutions in this country.

A few days since the Elias, of Bristol, Captain R'chard
('rediford, fruit laden from Malaga, was observed off Pad-
stow, beating about in the most evident distress. The nest
day it was discovered that she had gone on shore about
ten miles to the northward of Bude, and we regret testate
every soul on board perished. The only body yet found is
supposed to be that of the Captain, from the initials R. C.
being on his shirt ; and it is further conjectured tbat !Attie
heartless brute had inhumanly plundered the defenceless
corpse, from the circumstance of all the pockets beti.g
turned inside out.—Corau on Paper.
Mt.LANCIIOLY EVI.NT.—Two sisters, young women,
and daughters of a poor widow in Strathbrora, in attempt.
ing to cross the river Brora, near C'arrol, on their way to
Oolspie market, were unfortunately drowned. ‘Vhen it
was futend that they neither carne to the market, nor le-
turned home by Friday, a search was made, and they were
found on the following Sunday, in the water, locked in
each other's arms, near the place where they attempted to
cross. One of the young women was just about to be
married; and was on her way to Cie market in cm:sequence
of an appointment with the of of her affections, to
make some necessary purchases previoes to the wedding.—
