Dated Brooklyn, Aprils, 1868. 1 But these speculative questions upon the na ture of their depoBita and their fossils are not' the only subjects of, interest that theat tention of a visitor to locality. He finds himself in farming distriot, comparatively thrifty, laod remarkably convenient to the greatest markets. The soil, naturally poor and sandy, is made productive by manure, much' of it carted back as return loads by the wagons which convey 'the produce of the farms to Brooklyn and New York. But that which the far itself should return to the soil is sadly neglected.

The cbuegs of the barn yard manure evaporates in the sand, is washed out by the rains, while the dry refuse is returned to the fields. Compost making appears to be an unknown art, and the immense resources on hand in the piles of ds composing peat are quite disregarded. That the value of their stock of animal manure may be trtbled by judicious mixing of the muck is not in the experience of these farmers. Rumors, it is true, have reached that there is value in the article but they regard it as it lies spread put around their farms, with a shy aspect, as fish look upon a tempting bait placed in their way something very good if they knew how to take it, but which may catch thvm if they take hold of it the wrong way so they judiciously wait to see the result of an experiment made by one boldertban the rest; who has eovwed a field of eeveral acres, eighteen inches deep, with pure muck, upon which he intends to plant potatoes. The result of this experiment, with nothing even to neutralise the acidity of the sulphate of iron, is not likely to add to the estimation of the Unappreciated muck.

What an opportunity is there offoided for. a skilful agriculturist to secure these 200,000 cubic yards of fertilizing material, and with it enrich the sandy fields for which it may be made so excellent a nutriment. What excellent opportunities for the cultivation of the cranberry, a crop but little known in this region, though well suited to it, and probably made with ease more remunerative than any now cultivated. Another subject that came to our notice iu this excursion upon the line of the Brooklyn Water Works is the furnishing of tho vast amount of iron pipes required for the conveyarica or the water from the pumping engines to the reservoirs, and thence to the city and throughout the streets of Brooklyn and Williamsburgh. The quantities required are nearly as follows 6 miles of pipe 3 feet in diameter, and the same ltpg of 30 inch pipe 4 miles of 20 inch pipe 12 of 12 inch 36 miles of 8 inch and 64 miles of 6 inch diameter.

With all our rssources of iron ores, skill and capital, a considerable proportion of this pipe is imported from Glasgow, Scotland. Not merely do we fail ro furnish the usscsMr.cnt in inc aoove entiucu mauer nun ueeu jnaue, and that said report is now deposited in the omce of the said Board, at the City Hall In the city of Brooklyn, where the same can he. examined by all persons interested, and that the said Board wilt meet In said office on the 21st day of April at 3 o'clock, P. to hear objections (if any) from the parties interested, and to complete and sign our said report.

HiMSHAW, Secretary. jal6 tf cities of Brooklyn and Williamsburgh, and the town of Bushwick. into ono Miinlcinal Government, and to Incor porate the same," Hereby give notice, Hint the report of MASTODON REMAINS. Having beard of the recent discovery of some tones of the Mastodon in the excavations made for the Brooklyn Water Works at Baisley's Pond, two miles beyond the Village of Jamaica, we availed ourselves of a favorable opportunity to visit the locality, curious to witness the disinterment of the remains of bo interesting a monster, or if this might not be, at least to observe the conditions under which they were deposited. The Brooklyn and Williamsbnrgh Aqueduct is to be supplied from a series of short watercourses, whose source is near the southern base of the range of Highlands which passes along through the central portion of Long Island, two to three miles back from it.

The strip of cduntry is exceedingly well watered, and the streams gusldng out from the sand are pure and never failing. They have long been used to supply the power for the saw and grist mills of the region, and, when choked in their course by dams, or natural obstructions, they have spread "but into ponds, which, whan cleared of their vegetable accumulation, are made convenient reservoirs, with clean, natural bottoms of sand. Baisley's pond is the nearest of these sources of supply, and a covered conduit is constructed to lead from it into the open canal, which receives the waters of more distant sources. At the juncture of this conduit with the canal, the latter gives place to the main conduit, through which the waters are conveyed five miles to the pumping engines, which are to be stationed below the great reservoirs on Udgewcod Hill, Before tUe pond was drained for cleaning, it wag a long, shoal collection of water, covering some thiriy flve acres, overgrown with water lilies, and its banks miry wHh peat muck. A living stream of water runs through it, which for generations past had turned a mill at its outlet.

Manchester of coating the pipes with coal tar, from which, by partial dis Another mill is stiil running iiigner upon me same stream. The water being removed, the bottom was found to be a deposit of peat upper portion matted together with the huge roots of the water lilies.

These, as large as a man's arm, were intertwired with one another in a coarse net work, difficult to break into with the mattock and the pick. By their great number, by their surface covered with tubercles or knobs, from which spring the rootlets and the stems of the plant, and by their occurring in the midst of so dense a carbonaceous deposit, one could not but be reminded of those similarly shaped lossil stems so abundant in the stratum of clay which underlies almost every bed of mineral coat fossils now called stigmariae which though converted into sandstone or fire clay, prove, by their being traced in several instances to their jnnction with erect fossil trunks, to have been the roots of plants which furnished a considerable portion of the ancient; coal beds. Under the lily roots, the peat, half or wholly converted into muck, formed a rich black deposit, reaching in many places to four feet in thickness. All this is in progress of being broken up and carted beyond the limits of the pond. The amount thns removed is estimated at about 200 ,000 cubic yards at this pond alone.

It is spread upon the adjacent sandy fields as waste, the farmers near by not appreciating its value. An efforescence of sulphate of iron or copperas forms upon some portions of the heap, and the smell of sulphuric acid is plainly perceived in passing over them. Around some of the springs a ferruginous deposit is observed from the decomposition of the sulphuret of iron dispelled through the sand Except with these substances nothing of interest has teen met with in cleariDg out the pond un t'l the discovery of the mastodon bones These were found in the upper portion of the pond, more or less imbedded in the top of the son'd and leneath three and a half or fcrar feet of thei partially decomposed peat The workmen had fchovelled up and carted away a quantity of decked bony mutters, before tne discovery of several huge molar teeth, well preserved by the protection afforded by their hard enamel, caused attention to be directed ts the spot aad search to maiie in the heaps removed for other rtions of the skeleton. Pieces of bone were found, but in too imperfect and decayed fragments to be preserved. But the teeth were sufficient to ideality the animal.

These were four in number tic largest about nine inches long on the divided into siz traverse ridges, th length of the tooth from ibe crown to the extremity of the mot te nc from six to seven in jhes. They are DIREGT0B3 Edward Copland. John K. Pruvn. a ua.

posure to the air. Witbinthe ribs of tho best preserved specimen was found, logether with the clay, aquanlity of vegetable remainssome seven bushels of what Lyell supposed had Beived for the food of the animal. Specimens of it, examined for him by the microscope in London, proved to he twigs of a coniferous tree, probably the white cedar, which is still a common product of such swampy places as the animal frequented. Discoveries of these remains have rarely been made east of tho Hudson hiver. They are more common at the brakish springs in Ohio and Kentucky, which are still the iesort of the' deer, as they were in former times of the Buffalo and ether large wild animals.

The bones of these and of the mammoth found with them have given to one of the losali ties in Kentucky the name of Big Bone Lick Tho Mastodon bones are almost as abundant as are these of liviDg species and they are by no means the only specimens of those which are extinct. For with them are found strange species of the elephant, horse, Tho extreme eastern haunts of these huge creatures appears to hava btenneaTthe Connecticut lliver. A bone was found ome.ye&is ego in Sharon, a tooth at Cheshire, and a vertebral bona at Berlin, twelve miles southwest of Hartford. The new locality on Long Island is thus upon the eastern margin of their raDge. It would ba interesting to determine, if possible, whether thesa animals have been contemporaneous with man but there is nothing in the mode of occurrence of their remains to decide the question either way.

There arc no data for fixing the period required for the growth of the vegetable deposit which commonly covers their bones. The Indians of the North West, it is slated by Prof. Mather, have a tradition of the existence of such animals that they ftd on the boughs of trees that they did not lie down, but leaned against a treo to sleep. Their namo for them meant tree eaters. Their teeth, which are all molars, indicate that such was the nature of their food, ASSESSORS' NOTICE In the matter of apportioning and assessing the expense of fencing lots on tne corner of South 2nd and 5th streets, and on South sth street, between 2nd and 3rd streets.
