n,-and it is worthy OF note, that in the
counties, where the Wings, were in the as
cendancy, they gained proportionate and
reasonable increase, while the locos were
allowed every legal vote;--but in those
counties where the locos had the sway their
malorities were unaccountable, and even
exceeded tho extrayagant calculations of
their own desperate politicians. There
must be some reason for this---and we re-
joice, that measures are about being taken
to look into the frauds and illegal proceed
ings which on every hand are coming to the
knowledge of our friends in that State. So
then as regards Pennsylvania, while we
have the Senate as signally as last year, we
have also a majority in the Assembly, and
on joint ballot, which secures to'us u. S.
Senator, and have gained two or more Con-
gress- men.

Mammoth Bones. the cxcavat ion of
the Brunswick and Altamaha canal, there
has been discovered, about five miles from
this place, a large deposit Of bones of ex-
traordinary size, and in remarkable state
of preservation. Several vertebr@ of eight
inches in transverse diameter, have been
discovered. Teeth, of which the top is
nine inches in the longer diameter, and five
inches in breadth, and about as large as a
mans hat, have been excavated. These
were evidently of a moar character. There
have been found, also, smaller teeth of more
solid structure, with pointed crowns, and ap.
parently belonging to some carniverous an.
imal. Portions of large tusks have also
been excavated, of the perfect structure of
ivory. These last were much crumblcd,
but TO Judge by the size of the circles mark.
ed in ivory, the original diameter of the
tusks could not have been less than ten or
twelve inches. II is probable that the prin.
cipal deposit of bones has scarcely been
reached as yet, though several cart loads
have been excavated all that have yet
been discovered were within six feet OF
the surface. They lie mostly embedded in
blue clay.
Thus far they have been uncovered with
care and no notes have been taken Of the
relative positions in which the Iii erent spe-
cIes of bones have been found. In future
the excavation will proceed with the atten.
ton due to the discovery of such curiosi-
ties. We believe they are the first of the
kind that have been found in Georgia.
Specimens will be forwarded TO scientific
societies and we wait the result of their ex.
aminations with great interest.
In the salt marshes upon the shores OF
our bay, are found at the depth of from six
to fifteen feet, frequent roots and stumps o.
the cypress--a tree which grows only in
fresh marshes. May it not be that the Al.
tamaha once discharged its waters al this
port, and that in the CONFUSION of nature
which changed its bed--removing it twelve
miles to the northward, these giant animal:
were destroyed and embedded together
having sought for security what was Their
the highest point of land?-Brunsscick, Geo
