Pstrified Man with whIskers.

Joseph Sweshenger, who resides
near Stanford, writes to the River
Press particulars of a wonderful dis
frequented mountain near his resi-
dence. The discovery consists of a
petrified man, with all his limbs IN a
perfect state of preservation The
body stands against a massive bowl +.
of which it seems to have become a
part, and cannot be removed without
much labor and considerable expense.
tiny stream of water flowing from
IA spring above falls directly upon the
head of the body, and after passing
over it loses itself in the surrounding
rock.
The body measures six feet and
nine inches from the crown of the
head to the soles of the feet and is
well proportioned, the chest and
limbs being of ponderous width and
size The features are of the severe
Roman type, surmounted by broad.
high forehead and "a luXuriant growth
of hair, which is as firm as a rock it,

completes picture which inspires a
feeling of awe and reverence in the
beholder. Certain hieroglyphics are
cut upon the rock, a true copy of
which Mr.. Sweshenger promises to
send US. Thus far he has kept his
discovery a secret but will in due
time divulge its locality. IL will
doubtless attract the savants of the
