Fossil FOuTPRINrS.-Dexier Marsh, laborng me-
chanic of Greenfield, many years ago discovered on
the tagging stones with which lie was laying a side
walk, what appeared 10 be the prints of some
strange bird. The geologist pronounced them to be
such, and belorg period before the creation Of
man. This discovery SO excited the curiosity and
scientific ardor of Mr. Marsh thnt he has since made
il his amusement to look for such Impressions, and
he has traversed the valley from the northern Mass
achuset;s line to Wethcrsield, Con-, some time spen
ding weeks in quarrying rocks with the sole view
Of discovering these ancient tracks. In the last
number ofSilliman's Journal of Science he gives u
brie account of his labors ond successes from whc,
may understand that the Connecticut valley, in
bygone ages, favorte resort birds that would
have made no more of putting man in their crops,
than turkeys do of swallowing grasshoppers.
Mr.. Marsh has in his possession more than eight
hundred footprints of birds and quadrupeds besides
having furnished many specimens TO others, in this
and other countries. In some these specimens
distinct not only to show the joints of the
toes but the perfect impression OF the skim He has
perfect tracks of quadrupeds so small that half
dime will cover the whole foot, and again others OF
birds where the foot measures half yard from the
the heel that if the birds which made them
were proportoned like those we now have they
must have stood twenty feet high!
He has sometimes followed the track Of n bird
thirty forty feet in the rock, the track being at
first faint if on hard soil; then more distinct, as
if imprinted the sand ut the waters edge, and
finally sinking into the mud and disappearing i'll the
water. He has one slab four or five inches thick,
which the tracks appear as mere straight lines
upon the surface; but on splitting il into i've layers
they grow and more distinct, till the lower
slab shows where the foot rested Just as if when the
stone was in state OF mud, the bird trod down &c
the bottom of it, and Withdrawing the foot the
mud closed up.
Among these tracks are many very unlike to those
made by any known animals, but still so marked a:
to leave no doubt that animals made them. 4 sor
OF Kangaroo, for example, shows very small fore
feet and very large hind ones. OF this the Journa
OF Science gives striking cut.

himself down, pencil and sketch-book in hand, and
