Barton's Lftttr to Jefferson. Governor Pownall, in a paper published in the Philosophical Magazine, (vol. 14. ) after having viewed a skeleton of the New- York mammoth, exhibited by mr. Peale in London, is of opinion that it was a marine animal, from the fol- lowing circumstances : 1. Its being carnivorous, and its enormous bulk would, therefore, require a supply of animal food from the earth which it could not get, and which could only be found in the abundance of the waters. 2. He thinks ther...e are parts in the debris of the skull which have some comparative resemblance to the whale as to the purpose of breathing under wa- ter ; that the width of the jaws is similar to that of fish ; and that the ribs, more similar to those of fish than to those of terrestrial animal*, are, by their construc- tion and position, ordained to resist a more forcible external compression than the atmosphere creates. 3. That the neck is c o short that the animal could not reach the ground with 1 $6 NOTES AN its mouth, the line from the withers to the end of the under jaw being about ne> third of the line from the withers to the ground.
