One of the rarest of fossil remains baa been unearthed in Michigan, near the Indiana state line, and is now in the possesion of George A. Baker, of South Bend, Ind., says the Cincinnati Com mercial-Gazette. It is the. skull of a mammoth beaver, a monster of the quaternary age, existing contempora neously with the mastodon and mega therium. In only five other instances in the United States, and in this coun try alone, have any portion of the re mains of a mammoth beaver been found, and these were always of tlw teeth or skull, but generally of only the teeth. The first discovery was at Nash- port, Licking county, O., by I'rof. Fos ter, whose ilnd, a skull, is described in American Ilocnti by Prof. Allen, and a cast of which was taken by Prof. Agas siz, and the ctust alone remains. The skull possessed by Mr. Baker is 12Vjjinches long, is about 6 inches wide, and stands about 5 inches high. It has the teeth and also the great incisors used in tree-cutting; the incis ors are about 9 inches long and l1. Inches in diameter. It was found in a bog, and from comparisons with other specimens it is the largest and finest specimen now known to exist. The live animal could not have weighed less than 400 pounds.
