II will have to do the best can, clearly
intinating that he would kill all he could.

come to focus-he had to surrender.

A Michigan Mastodon.

A short time ago, while some laborerg
were at work on excavations near Big
Prairie. in Monroe county, Mich, they
came upon quantity of bones, forming
the skeleton of mastodon, whick were
exumed. and brought to this city. One
Of the immense tusks was II feet in length
and seven inches in diameter at the small.
est extremity. where . portion seemed to
have been broken of. Several teeth
were found in a greater or less degree Of
preservation, which measured six inches
in diameter, the largest weighing I've
pounds. One Of the ribs was nearly
eight feet long, and the entire skeleton
must have been 20 or 30 feet in length.
The men were obliged to abandon the ex-
cavation on account of water, but pumps
have been procured and an attempt will
be made to recover more of the remains
Of past age.
