In a former number we noticed in a cur
sory manner, the result of the Rev. Mr.
White’s efibit to discover the balance of
the remains of th"' huge Mastodon. The
bones which he succeeded in finding on
his second visit to the locality, had not
then been brought to town, and we could
not do mote than call attention to the sub
ject. —Having since had an opportunity
to examine them, we have it in our pow
er to satisfy curiosity so far as it can be ef
fected without seeing them.
The first and only perfect bone found on
Mr. White’s first visit, was the Thigh
Bone, an account of which we have alrea
dy given. His second excursion has been
attended by the discovery of the Tusks,
or defences; two Teeth, with a part of the
Jaw Bone, an os humeri or arm bone,'sev
eral vertebrae, fragments of ribs, and some
of the tarsal bones—togeth >r with several
other fragments, which, from their extreme
ly mutilated condition, cannot be iden
tified. The defences are in a very imper
fect condition—the largest piece is near
3 feet in length, 1 foot 8 inches in circum
ference—in the living subject they were
probably 8 feet long. The substance of
them is so soft that it yields very readily
to the knife The upper part of the arm
bone is broken off—it is 2 feet 9 inches
long, and its circumference in the largest
par {, two feet, four inches. The teeth,
which form the most interesting part of the
discovery, are in very good preservation.
The largest is 6 inches long, and 4 inches
wide, and has 5 conical ridges. The
smallest is 4 inches long and 3 wide, and
has 3 conical ridges.—They belong to the
lower jaw. The conical ridges extend
across the tooth, with very considerable
depressions between them.—They seem
to be but little worn. The comparative
anatomist will not fie at a loss to perceive,
that the teeth we describe belong to the
real Mastodon of Cuvier, and not to the
Elephant. The smaller tooth has one of
its sides broken oft’, so that the manner in
which the enamel is disposed, can be plain
ly seen ; it forms a coat over the whole
crown of the tooth, hut does not extend in
fo the body of it; and this fact in addition
to the elevated ridges, confirms us in the
conviction that it is an animal totally differ
ent from the Elephant of the Eastern Con
tinent, which has teeth composed of per
pendicular plates of enamel, penetrating
the tooth and that do not terminate upon
.the crown in elevated conical ridges, as in
the Mastodon—but with slightly elevated,
flat and oval ridges, which are also greater
in number than the Mastodon.
Along with these bones, were found oth
ers of a smaller size, evidently belonging to
the Megatherium, of which we will endea
vour to give some account in our next.
[This is only n popular relation of the
matter: but t)r. I. C. Habersham, who
was present with Mr. White has promised
us a more particular account; and, we
hope that we shall be able to lay ail the
details before our readers, shortly.]
Savnntiah Georgian.
In our last, we mentioned, that along
with the bones of the»Mastodon, were found
some of a smaller size, which persons best
acquainted with the subject, are inclined
to regard as those of the Megatherium.—
Concerning the fossil remains of this ani
mal, which are remarkable for their magni
tude and singular organization, even when
viewed alongside of the other, Professor
Brande has afforded us information, which,
we have thought, might be interesting to
our readers —especially when it is recol
lected, that a few years since, a skeleton
was found upon Skidaway Island ; a con
siderable portion of which is now in the
cabinet of Dr- Screven. The article to
which we have alluded, may be found in
Napier’s Supplement to the Encyclopedia
Brittanica. Hitherto, Naturalists havt
confined its locality to South America
but, here, it seems also to have found boll
a birth place and a home, —years befor
, the flood.
Megatherium.— A complete skeleton c
this collossdl species was found in diluvia
soil near Buenos Ayres, and sent to Mai
rid; afterwards another was discovery
near Lima, and a third in Paraguay. [R<
mains of the Megatherium have been lati
ly found in limestone caves in Brazil
The splendid specimen in Madrid is sou
teen feet tong, and seven Spanish feet i
'height, foe skeleton of this megatherium
» *> rude and unshapely, that the clumsy
skeleton of the elephant and rhinoceros,
and even the massive and rugged bones of
the hippopotamus, anpear, when placed
beside it, sleudor and light, ft Is one of
r the largest and most massive of all the fos
sil quadrupeds hitherto discovered. Judg
ing from its structure its motions seem to
have been slow and dVagging, and, with
t ft *ception of .its long claws, appears to
I; hflve been more defenceless than any of the
It s»ther largo quadrupeds. The form of the
r shin's :hat it lived on vegetables, and
i 'ls hipg claws are supposed to have been
t i>>ed so» ; digging up the roots op which it is
f conjet/ured so have fed.
According to Rees, this quadruped dif
fers in its character, from all known ani
mals : and each of its hones, considered
. apart, also differs from the corresponding
1 hones of all known animals 5 for none other
y that approach it in bulk, have pointed
, claws, or a similarly formed head, shoulder
blades, clavicle pelvis, or limbs—ln which
opinion, he is sustained by Cuvier, who
says, that if such a creature still existed,
so remarkable a species would not have
hitherto escaped the researches of Natural
ists.—ib.
From the Charleston Southern Patriot.
To show how completely the tenantry
of Ireland are alienated from their Land
lords, the singular circumstance is related
that at the county of Clare Election one
Landlord brought in his tenants to the
number of 300 to vote for Mr. Fitzgerald ;
but that on finding them inclined to vote
for Mr. O’Connell, he offered them an
abatement of rent, if thy would return home
and vote for neither party, to which they
consented. They however on the advice
of others returned to the polls, with colors
flying, every man carrying a green hough,
and in this triumphant manner voting for
O’Connell. The enthusiasm of even the
women is not to be described. The forty
shilling freeholders are repr»sented as hnv
ing been accompanied to the polls by their
wives, carrying green boughs, shouting for
O’Connell the Liberator of Ireland, and
encouraging their husbands to vote for their
religion and the’r cow-try and disregard
their Landlords threat of retaliation. On
the mention of this menance one of the
i most popular of the Leaders of the Catho
lics thus expressed himself.
Mr. Shiel next addresed the Fieehold
ers, and alluding to the threatened ven
geance of the Landlords, expressed him
self as follows:—“As to the landlords,
I trust that they will forbear from adopting .
a system of exasperating persecution to
wards the great body of the people Eve
ry kindly and generous feeling forbid the
exercise of measures of rigour, and his
heart must be'made of granite, who can
1 bring himself to let his vengeance fall upon
, the wretch who has only followed the dic
tates of his conscience, in violating his will.
■ But let the landlords beware —the peasants
; may have their day. The Irish have good
memories, and by that God in Heaven,
to which I lift my hand and raise my eyes,
if - - - - - hut I shall not pro
ceed ; enough to say that the Irish gentry
should recollect that they dwell upon a vol
canic elevation. Let them beware of an
eruption—let them look to it. The pen
. pie must not be provoked—the landlord
and tenant are made of the same flesh and
■ blood, and will rot nt last in the same
church yard. The worms (those genuine
Jacobins) will scarcely make a difference
, between landlord and tenant, will digest
• Sir Edward O’Brien and Baddy Murphy
with an impartial stomach [cheers]. Why
. do I urge these topics ? In order to make
i landlords recollect that they are compnund
. ed out of the same materials as their serfs;
they should remember that the passion of
. retribution (I will not call it the wild
) tice of revenge) is a property of human
I nature. If they oppress the people, soon
? er or later they will feel the consequences.
. I have asked before, hath not tho peasant
eyes, hands, organs, senses, affections, di
mensions, passions, as the gen leman has?
If you tickle him, will he not laugh? If
y yon poison him, will he not die? If you
i prick him, will he not bleed? If you tor
t tore him, will he not grieve ?—and if you
1 wrong him—aye—(l repeat the question)
, —if you wrong him, will he not revenge?
. [loud and continued acclamations].”
I From the Nashville Republican.
, THE DICKENSON DUEL.
We should not again have recurred to
’ the subject of Gen. Jackson’s Duel with
. Mr. Dickenson, had it not been in our
u power to present the public with new tes
. litnony in relation to it, which is at once
e unquestionable and irrefragihle. We are
o well aware that the public mind was - long
n since satisfied of the honorable and correct
H deportment of Gen. Jackson on that occa
e sion ; but the recent agitation of the sub
,. jt-ct produced by the publication of Dr.
h May’s letters, and the important and con
re elusive nature of the evidence about to be
adduced, will form a sufficient apology to
of 'he reader for our recurring again, and for
al the last lime, to the affair,
j Gen. Jackson is accused of having act
ed eel dishonorably on the ground. There
i ( ,. are i, u t twb living witnesses of that trans
it action— Gen. Jackson and Corbin Lee.—
II ft j s the testimony of the latter, that we
jr J a re about to introduce; and every circum
in stance connected with it, adds to its weight
\v.•:♦ i ■ ■ • *
«•‘ _ •
i md authenticity. Mr. Lee was the friend
' of Dickenson, and cannot, therefore, he
. suspected of partiality to Gen. Jacksoitt
f He accompanied Dickenson to the ground)'
I and was an eye witness of the whole irons
' action. He, consequently, speaks of his
■ own knowledge.
The following is an extract of a letter
1 from Mr. Lee to a gentleman in this coun
ty—not Gen. Jackson—dated Bayoo Pla
qnemine, July 19th, 1828. \(ter relating
the particulars of the fight, he proceeds
“Gen Jackson then offered the refresh
ments lhat be had brought upon the field,
with an apparent sympathy, which I
thdnglit did honor to a generous enemy.”
“ rite persons on (he ground were the
principals, General Overton as second,
and Duct. May as surgeon of Gen. Jack
son, Doct. Catlett as fiiend and surgeon of
Mr. Dickenson, and myself.
“ This statement is in unison with one
I gave Mr. Ridley, a Tennesseean, a few
days after the fight. I then stated, and
now say, that the conduct of Gen. Jack
son was upright, honorable and gentle
manly throughout the. transaction, and
I was a close observer of it ”
In another part of Ins letter, Mr. Lee says:
“ T was present on the ground when the
duel took place between Mr, Charles Dick
enson and Gen. Andrew Jackson, more
particularly as the friend of - Mr Dicken
son, buthy the consent of both parties.”
The most sceptical man in the universe,
if he he honest, cannot resist the force of
such evidem e as the above.
But it is said that Gen. Jackson’s con
duct prior to the duel was reprehensible—
and that he inhumanly sought Dickenson’s 1
life. To rebut this we have the testimony i
of another intimate and confidential friend 1
of Dickenson. Duct Thomas G. .Walk'ns.
An interesting letter from this Gentleman
will be found in this day’s paper, to which
we invite the attention of our readers.—
That part which relates to the duel, Is so
full of interest, and at th- same time so
completely vindicatory of Gen Jackson’s
conduct both before and at tire time of the
fight, that we insert it also here. The
writer was the partner of Doct. Catlett,
and the bosom friend of Dickenson He
was one of those who signed the address
to the Editor of (he Nashville pap-T, la
menting the “ untimely death” of Dicken
son. A misunderstanding grew out of
Watkins’conduct on that occasion, which
produced a coolness between him and
Gen. Jackson, that lasted for sixteen years.
He cannot he suspected of partiality—he
is known in this state, and in Virginia, as
a man of talents and unquestionable vera
city. The following eloquent and feeling
passage in his letter, must carry conviction
even to the hearts of such men as John
Binns and Charles Hammond.
“ Next to my deceased and intimate
friend, Gen. Overton, I hold the key to the (
disclosure of the wh-fl" transaction that
got up an unmerited clamor against Gen. 1
Jackson on account of the death of Mr.
Dickenson; but the General’s cause at the :
time and place under strict scrutiny—fri
umphantly prevailed; and the cause of the
people—nor of Gen Jackson—nor Myself
—nor any thing hut malice—requires,
NOW, that the graves of the dead shall
he opened—their memories disturbed, and
surviving innocent sensibility, stifled by
the exhalation.
“ I was the intimate friend and family
physician of the lamented Dickenson—
became the depository to all the prelimi
naries of his duel with Gen. Jackson—was
the intimate and confidential friend and
partner at the time, in the practice of phy
sic, with Doct. Catlett, who was the second
and at the same time surgeon of Mr Dick
enson in the duel.—The morning before
the duel they both made the necessary pre
parations at my house in Nashville, where
Doct. Catlett then resided in the house
with me as my guest; and after breakfast
they started together to Kentucky—Mr.
Dickenson requiring that I might not be
absent from town the next day, as if wound
ed he should send an express for me. The
express came; f accompanied his weeping
wife in her carriage, near fifty miles that
day and night, to her husband, at Major
Harrison’s, in Kentucky. I sustained her
on our arrival, as she sunk lifeless on his
dead corpse. Could I forget the particu
lars of a scene like this? Maj. Harrison
can tell, if living and reminiscent, that
the information was afterwards imparted
in my presence, to this deeply afflicted
lady, in mitigation of her sufferings, that
Mr. Dickenson called upon his attendant
friends, and, with his dying breath, charged
them to bear witness that he acquitted
Gen. Jackson of all blame on the occasion.
In which he had reference, it was clearly
understood, to the causes of the duel, as
well as its conduction. But would I could
say, he so acquitted all others, ns instiga
ling him to ils provocation and fatal pro
secution.”
Here then Is a full and triumphant vindi
■ cation of Gen. Jackson from the atrocious
: charge that has long rung in the public ear.
j Should it n«t teach his enemies a lesson?
r If they have done him so much injustice
in this case, may they not have done him
- more grievous wrong in many others ?
