FOSSIL INFIJSORIA IN THE FLINTS FROM
LEN% ES AND BRIGHTON. —lt is now some years since we
were first made acquainted with the remains of the colossal
reptiles which abound in our sandstone and limestone
r Arks in the weald, and the startling and monstrous forms
of the originals, depicted by the pencil and described by
the pen of our townsman Dr. Mantel'. These l'arrds
of
an ancient world, many of which must have been 100
feet long, exceeded by far all living creatures of the same
family, and their petrified bones might well have
given rise to the tradition of there having been once a
mighty race of giants who w..re the lords of the soil
in ages long past. But these facts are now so wel
known that they pass as matters of indisputable credit,
and we arc now called upon to receive another class of
phenomena, as overpowering from their infinite minuteness,
and the inexhaustible fish' of inquiry to which to whin
they conduct us. A few years ago, a celebrated Ger-
man naturalist discovered that whole mountains of stone
were composed of the skeletons of beings so minute
as to be invisible to the naked eye, but which the
microscope revealed to us as of form as elegant, and
of organisaticn as wonderful, as even the largest and
most beautiful of existing beings. These researches
have been followed up by naturalists in our own count
try, and among other wonderful results is the astound.
ing fact, that our chalk flints are almost wholly composed
of the shells, or more properly shields or cases, of crest;
tures which must have lived in the sea in which the liint
was deposited. These beings, are of various forms and
referable to several genera, and all are to minute that an
individual cannot be seen by the naked e)e, and It would
require many millions to form a mass of flint equal tb one
cubic inch I Master Reginald Mantel), the young eon of
the author of " The Fossils of the South Downs," who
has been assiduously explorieg with his microscope
Writs obtained from the chalk pits of this his
native place, has discovered that the ,tortrltirli(i,
(a fossil animal of a globular form, with nume-
rous tentacula or arms,) abound in almost every
atom of flint, and that they are in as beautiful a sate
of perfection as the fossil fishes from the same quarries
Several of the species found by this )ottnp observer are
entirely new, that is, have not been preciously observed
a proof how highly interesting are these researchts to the
youthful mind, since the most inexperienced May herrorase
a discoverer in this new path of Inrelity, appears too,
that the fossil teeth of the shark and other fishes, so abun-
dant in our chalk, when cut into thin sections, present the
most extraordinary structure under the micrornorri
tlir
distribution and interlacing of the verse's with the tubes
of bone and ivory that compose the tooth differing in the
different genera.__ Sussex Advertiser.
EXTENSIVE ROBBERY.—Tuesday informatiou
I was received by the police of the commission of a robbery
of notes and securities to the value of bet %Tell 1,500/. and
1,6001. It occurred on the evening of Saturday last,
when, as a gentleman, whose name has not transpired, was
proceeding along Gill street, in the town of Liverpool, he
was accosted by two men, of whom he is unable to give a
