Curious Egg. few days since, We noticed
mammoth egg, measurtog seven and a half by
eight and half inches, and weighing five and !
half ounces, which was sent TO US by Mr. Field

what we have since discovered, that this N ammott
egg contained another perfect egg in it. the shell
OF which Is as hard as ordinary egg shells. On
perForating the outer shell 1t found to contain
white, glutinous liquid but no yolk The inner
egg was apparently pelf Ct 10 all its parts aud
both have been added to our cabinet of curosities
for preservation.
