Reported Exhumation of an Antedilavi: Human Skeleton of Giant Proportic {From the Sauk Rapids (Mich.) Sentme' Day before erday, While the qu ‘m ployed by the Sank Rapids Water Power Company ged Ju quarrying rock for the dam w 1s being erected across the Mississippi at this place, they found imbedded in the solid rock the remains of a haman being of gigantic stature. About seven feet below the surface of the ground and about three feet and a half beneath the upper stratum of rock the remains were found imbedded in the sand, which had evidently been placed in the quad: ranguiar grave which had been dug out of the solid rock to receive the last sad remains of this antediluvian giant. The grave was twelve fect in length, four feet wide and about three feet in depth, and is to-day at least two feet below the present level of the river. ‘The mains are com ly petrified and are of gigantic dimensions, The head is massive, measures 3134 inches in circumference, low in the os Jrontis and very fat on top. The femur measures 26% inches and the fibula 254, while the body is equally long in proportion, From the crown of the head to the sole of the foot the length is 10 feet 9% inches. The measure round the chest is 59'g inches. This giant must have weighed at least 900 pounds when cov- ered with a reasonable amount of flesh, The petrified remains, and there is nothing left but the naked bones, now weigh 304%; pounds. The thumb and fingers of the teft hand and the left foot from the ankle to the toes are gone; but all the other parts are perfect. Over the sepuichre of the unknown dead was placed a large Mat limestone rock that remained perfectly separated from the surrounding granite rock. These wonderful remains of an antediiuvian wigan ic race are in the possession of a gentieman who has started with it to his residence Kast. The gentieman, it is said, will send the remains to Boston, and possibly we may hear all that can be said on the subject by the learned in these things. ies epee by some of our ablest men, among whom is General Thomas, that many more skeletons will be found during the process of excavatti the granite rocks in: this place, Some seem to think that these remains were deposited in this sarcophagns prior to the formation of the present atrata of rocks that bow abound here, but this 18 mere conjecture, THE CONFIDENCE GAME IN MEMPHIS, (From the Memphis Post, Dec. 23.) Mr. Jeptha Lill, a bi ig living near Sardis, Miss., was yesterday swindled out of $655 by one of the crowd of sharpera swarming our streets, Mr, Hiil was here to buy mules for his plantation and met the sharper on the street. The stranger, inquired for a good hotel, when Hill took him to the Southern Hotel and allowed him to oc- cupy his room with him. On subsequently taking a walk on the street the stranger met # friend who de- manded immediate payment of a debt. The sharper, in his affected distress, asked the loan of the money on @ pretended $1,000 United States tender, giving for such a nicely printed blank certificate of insur- ance in a Syracuse (N. Y.) life company. The $655 was generously handed over on the presentation of such excellent security, Presently the genial stranger had occasion to go around the corner to see SS and up to the present writing has not re- wurned, Sap Casvatry.—On Wednesday night a fire broke out in the south ward of the Lunatic Asylum at Am- herstburg, Ontario, threatening to destroy the build. ing anc ail its contents, So suddenly and ferce did the fames follow up the alarm that one woman was suffocated and two others were badly burned before the fire was subdued.

The United States gunboat Swatara,.Commander Homer C. Blake, is in port, attending to American interests. She arrived on Sunday last from Cadiz, and while on her way through the Straits of Gibrai- tar met with an unfortunate accident by running down a French bark. From one of the oficers I learn that the accident occurred after dark, while the ship was running along very comfortably at the rate of five or six knots an hour, with the wind light from the eastward. This favorable wind had brought out of the Mediterranean a large number of Vessels, and the Straits were crowded with sailing craft, standing fairly and before the wind, with yards squared, The Swatara threaded her way safely through until beyond Tarifa, when two ves- sels were made out ahead, One was passed safely, but the other ported helm and went to the starboard. When this movement was made the Swatara put her helm aport, and this would have avoided all collision, but the Frenchman, who seemed to be undecided and uncertain, soon afier luffed suddenly and at- tempted to cross the Swatara’s bows. The vessels were 8O near together that a collision could not be avoided, and although the engines of the Swatara were stopped and backed she struck the bark forward her starboard cathead and drove her bow ciean up to the bark’s foremast, smashing the longboat and leaving a gap in her side that soon filed her with water. The Swatara Was backed out of the unpleasant position and got clear of the wreck, not without having her foretop- mast carried away by the yards of the Frenchman, As soon as the wr was Cleared the ship stopped, and the first cutter, whaleboats and gig were manned and sent to the stranger. Before they could reach the bark they met the captain’s boat, contain- ing the officers and crew, who had deserted their ship with an alacrity that betokened anything but coolness and sei!-possession. The men were taken on board the Swatara and made comfortable. in half an hour the bark had flied and keeled over, lying on her side, Nothing further could be done, and the Swatara kept away on her course for Mala- ga, Where the Freuciimen were cared for by @ French corvette in port. ‘The bark was the Justina, from Marsellies to Kio Janeiro, with oil and wine. She Was built in Quebec aud was about du0 tons register. Fuily insured, The damage to the Swatara was very slight, her bowsprit and foretop being carried away aud the forefoot being sprung a little, The ship was designed for ramming purposes, and as against a wooden vessel her powers woee pretty weil tried on this occasion. The accident occurred through the Frenchman’s 1ault and could not have been avoided by the Swatara, It may not be uninteresting to the good people at home to know that ‘thanksgiving was celevrated with the customary festivities on American territory in the harbor of Malaga. It was a general holiday on board the Swatara. The wardroom gave a splen- did dinner, to which the officers were kind enough to honor your correspondent with an invitation, and therepy enabled him to enjoy his feast under the flag and in American style. Captain Blake was also a guest. In my old cruising days in the Mediterra- nean the Frolic had the reputation of having the best wardroom and wine mess in these waters. ‘The Swatara is neck and neck now with that jaunty crait, and ican testify I never ate @ ner dinner afloat than that of Thanksgiving. While we were feasting and toasting in the wardroom the men forward were having their amusements. Jack never fais to ob- serve festivals, and he is bound to have a magnifl- cent dinner on all national occasions. Each mess draws money liberally from its fund, saved up dur- ing the cruise, and buys turkeys, without which a feast is a failure, chickens and other good things for the dinner. The ship’s cooks bripg. to bear their profoundest Knowledge and skill, and the success is in every way worthy of the great occasion. The Scene at dinner is pleasant enough. Jack is in his cleanest attire, aud the mess kit is spread neatly out on the deck, laden with savory and toothsome things. To tell you half of the titbits they have would fill a letter. They are all nice and cooked to a turn, and I imagme that the little cherub that sits aloft to watch over Jack must look down with inexpressibie delight upon the festive scene Velow, in which his edacious: and mirtoful charges are doing such manly duty at the trencher, The litte fellow cannot be inseasible to the delights suggested by the fat, round, brown, stiming breasts of the turkeys, whose drumsticks Stand up like the musket of a marine, and whose whole air and bearing bespeak a luxurious and sumptuous life and a manly death, rich with del- clous promises not broken'to the palate. And the cherub must be something less than nuiman tf it did not experience an unc.uous sensation when the great round plum pudding was rolled out and cut lip into noble pieces, and buried fathom deep in the rich white sauce, for consumption by men who knew them duty and performed it to the letter, It was, indeed, a Thanksgiving feast that would not have been discreditavle to the most famous New England housewife or @ Knickerbocker cook; and, what is better, every one enjoyed it, trom the captain to the messenger boy, and that is quite enough. After the men had done thorough justice to the dini they brought forth the prides of their hearts, thetr well browned and finely polished meerschaums, and sent up the incense of burning navy plug. Then came singing and dancing. A company of Malagafos came aboard with guitar and violin and cracked voices, and played and sung under the forecastie, und danced in their pecuilar style, till Jack overflowed with jollity and mirth. Before the bugier piped down hammocks tie moon came up, very red in the face, asif ina hurry to see an American Thanks- giving in foreign ports, and the oid lady smiled brightly on the scene for a while, until it was over, and then hastened swiftly in to the west to look ac some New England fireside, or to peer into some Western home, or to light up some Southern scene, where the freeman was enjoying his frolic and jead: ing off the quaint dance to the notes of the fiddle and banjo. She must in her round that night have contemplated many pleasant reunions and many de- lightful festivities, but she did not find aay inore Joyful and hearty than that she gazed upon in the quiet waters of the little harbor of Malaga.

The Incarcerat! of Hassan Bey: (Colonel OReilly) at Damascus—His Associnten, Who They Are and What They Did— O Reilly’s Allinnce With a Bedouin Sheik— Probable Fate of the Captives. CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 26, 1808, ‘The report recently received by telegram from Da- mascus of the escape of Liassan Bey (Colonel O'Reilly), the chief of the Syrian expedition, the object of which has caused 80 much speculation here, is found to be erroneous, a8 at last accounts Hassan Bey was still in conflnement at Damascus, together with the other Europeans belonging to hia band. The chief actors in the Bedouin aifray were an American naturalized citizen of Hungarian origin, named Romer, who, like O'Reilly, has been some years in the Turkish ser- vice; a nauralized Pole named Voniky; an Englishman named Jenner, and a very weak-minded native of Connecticut named Canfeld, who assumed the name of Lamar and hailed from South Carolina, together with some other Poles and Hungarians. Voniky is said to have escaped. Jenner also got away and made his appearance here shortly after the occurrence, but left imme- diately for home, having in the meantime ascer- tained the sentiments of Mr. Elliott, the British Am- bassador, who is determined to extend no protection to any one implicated in the affair, and consequently reasoned that his safest course would be to get away from Turkish territory as soon as possible. 4 Tie rest of the company are to be sent from here for helr final judgment, having andergone their pre- Jiminary examination at Damascus. ¥ Canteid, alias Lamas, was formerly United States Consul at Athens, where his eccentricities gave him great notoriety and were considered very unbecom- ing the dignity of the chief representative of the Great Republic at that ancient seat of learning and the arts. He is reported to have left his post vacant, without giving the slightest inumation of his inten- tion to the Department;of State; and this, together With his subsequent conduct, creates the impres- sion that he ig not in his right mind. Subsequent to leaving Athens he embarked in a blockade runner for Crete, was suspected of being @ spy and landed upon some other island, He then came to Constan- tinople, where he wandered about incognito du some weeks, and now turns up in Syria a8 one O’Reilly’s party, Romer is one of a class of naturalized citizens which of late years is becoming numerous, who once hav- ing, “by hook or by crook,” obtgined an American passport, abandon ‘the country of his adoption’? to engage in adventures abroad under ita protection, or settles quietly in his native land, prepared to defy its laws Whenever the opportunity occurs; and Voniky as in the same ps9 Some months since Komer obtained the necessary Papers from the United States Consulate at Trieste, ‘and hoisted the American fag on a small yacht then lying in that port, This vessel sul juently ap) im the Syrian waters, and after cruising up and down ‘the coast finally succeeded in landing clandestinely oe of arms and ammunition, intended for O’Reily’s company of engineers, consisting, a8 I learn, Of a quantity of breech-loaders and two moun- tain howitzers, with a full supply of ammunition for the same. O’iellly, having to make the survey of a railroad from Tripoli towards the Euphrates, fancied he required a strong escort for the protection of his party from the roving tribes to be met with in the intervening country, He therefore seems to have organized a ferce, ana contracted with the Sheik Medjuel, husband of Mrs. Digby, ex-Lady Ellenbofough, to furnish a supply of camels and other necessaries for the Euphrates expedition. Some ill- natured people say the meddling of the fair sex in business mutters 13 sure to create mischief. Unfor- tunately O'Reilly had to do in this case with one of the genuer sex who has been, if possible, a more desperate adventurer than himself, in the English wife of a Bedoutn sheik, who, it is probable, had no sympathy for our Irish engineer, which resulted in @ quarrel about the delivery of the camels, The shetk having received the money, the O'Reilly party deciared that he would not deliver up the camels, in such places, there being no law to appeal to but that of the strongest, O'Reilly drew up his forces in batule array and poured such a shower of lead from his breech-loaders into the Bedouin encampment ad fairly astonished them and sent the whole tribe flying tor dear life out of range after a slight skirmish, 1 which it is reported one woman and thirty camels were killed. Mrs. Digby further accuses Colonel O’Rellly of having been so ungallant as to use nis howitzers, and pretends to have recovered a shell that, was fired at the tribe and failed to explode, After the engagement O’Kelily took possession of all the surviving camels that could be found and en- tered into an alliance with the Shetk Ibn Merchid, the chief of a powerful tribe, whieh utterly disregards all human laws and sets the tax gatherer at deil- ance—whose motto is, “God is great and the Saltan is far off.” This alliance being not only defensive, but offensive, the combined forces, before commenc- ing their surveying operations, proceeded to chastise another tribe of Bedouins not on friendly terms with the new Bedouin ally—an operation that involved some fighting and gave rise co rumors of a revolt having broken out among the Bedouins, promoted by European adventurers, which report baving come Lo the ears of the Pacha of Damascus he fancied he saw in this movement a fresh attempt to over- throw the authority of the Suitan in Syria, and has- tened to send out alarge cavalry force, with eight fleld pieces, against which forces O’Keilly’s littic army attempted but a feebie resistance—just enough, as they say, to obtain favorable terms of surrender, which, I hear, caused the death of one @f the party, # Pole or Hungarian, ‘This last incident has, doubtless, done much to ravate the offence of O’Keiily’s party in the eyes: of the Turkish authorities, and places them much in the same dilemma as that of @ captured blockade runner who, before surrendering, may have ex- changed a few show with the sip of war to which he bas struck his flag. Immediately after the sur- render the whole of O'Reilly's force, both natives and foreigners, were marched off to Damascus, where they have since been kept in confinement ; but a marked distinction is made between the treat- ment awarded to the Europeaus and that of the native prisoners, the former being treated with great induigence, while the latter are kept in chains, which are not removed even during their presence in court. The preliminary exawinations having been completed, 1 am iniormed that the prisoners wul be sent forthwith to Constantinople, the chief of the expedition, O'Reilly, was engaged during the Abyssinian war in transporting mules and cameis from Alexandria to Suez. Alter the inassacres in Syria, that occurred in 1869, O'Reilly was attached to the staif of Fuad Pacha, the Imperial Commissioner jor the settiement of tne difficuities growing out of the insurrecuiog.
