Bone Cave in Kikkcudbeightshiee. — It has long been familiar to 

 geologists that the western and southern coast-line of Scotland is 

 pierced with caves of different levels, indicating former successive 

 lines along which the sea-waves worked. Unfortunately, owing to the 

 want of limestone or very calcareous rocks, these caves, as a rule, 

 present none of that stalagmite deposit which has elsewhere served 

 so abundantly to cover over and preserve the remains of the ancient 

 denizens of our country, with traces of the presence of man himself. 

 The caves usually open directly upon the coast, with free exposure 

 to the air, so that their floors show nothing but damp boulders and 

 pools of water from the drip of the roof. Eecently, however, a re- 

 markable exception to these ordinary conditions has been observed 

 on the wild cliff-line to the south-west of the bay of Kirkcudbright. 

 The Silurian greywacke is there traversed with strings and veins of 

 calcite along lines of joint and fracture, and at one point where an 

 old sea cave occurs, the walls and floor at the cave mouth, and 

 for a few yards inwards, have a coating of solid calcareous matter. 

 Beneath this coating in the substance of the breccia which extends 

 across the cave mouth, as "well as throughout the cave earth behind 

 the breccia, a great quantity of bones, with traces of human oc- 

 cupation, have been found. A systematic investigation of the cave, 

 commenced last autumn, is being carried on under the direction of 

 Mr. A. J. Corrie and Mr. W. Bruce-Clarke — the discoverers of the 

 osseous layer. At the present time the following among other 

 remains have been noted : — Bones of ox, red-deer, goat, horse, pig, 

 pine-marten, rabbit, watervole, and other small rodents, together 

 with numerous remains of birds and a few frog and fish bones. 

 Intermingled with these occur fragments of bronze, bone needles, 

 and other bone implements, to the number of more than twenty; one 

 piece of worked stone (a fragment of greywacke) has been found, 

 but as yet not a single chij) of flint. A full account of the cave will 

 be published as soon as the investigations are completed.
