ine particulars from friend, who received them
of gentleman who resides near the Lick.
s.There are ten to twelve set of tpsks. trom
four to twelve feet long-the claws are four feet
long and three broad: the tusks were arranged in
circular order. as if by the hands of man--Mi'h-
in the circle the bones were deposited. which when
placed together. Showed the animal TO have beeu
al least s5 feet high. and sixty feet long The
scuil bone alone weighed 400 pounds. They were
found by Mr. FinuCy, about fourteen feet below
the surface of the earth. who has refused $4,000
for them. Tie skeleton is said to be complete.
