mansliip. Beneath this specimen are placed masses of stalagmite, 
containing imbedded bones and skulls, the remains of aborigines, from 
the ossiferous cavern of Bruniquel in the South of France. On the 
lower shelves of the adjoining case (No. ll)are placed other human 
remains, together with worked implements of stone and bone, and 
numerous horns, teeth, and bones of the Eeindeer, gigantic Ox, Ibex, 
Chamois, Wild Horse, Bird's bones, &c., the remains of the animals 
which served as food for the men of the Flint Period in that part of 
Europe. These are also from the Bruniquel Cavern. 
On the upper shelves of the Cases to the right and left of the 
Human Skeleton (Cases No. 10 and 11) are arranged numerous mam- 
malian remains from South America. 
The lower half of Case No. II is devoted to an extensive series of 
remains of the Pigmy Elephant," discovered by Dr. Leith Adams, in 
the caverns and fissures of the Island of Malta. These remains be- 
longed to individuals of different ages, from the young to the adult, and 
furnish evidence of the former existence in Malta of a race of Ele- 
phants which, as compared with the living species, were of exceedingly 
diminutive size.
