Antiquities from Egypt.—An interesting scene lately took place at the Anatomical Theatre of the Washington Medical College, at Baltimore. It was the unwrapping of an Egyptian Mummy, from Memphis, presented by Com. Elliot, of the Navy. The usual transverse wrapping of coarse muslin externally, and longitudinal wrapping of fine next the shrivelled embalmed body, were observed. A skull in great preservation, not embalmed, and dug up by the Commodore himself, was also presented; likewise one other Mummy, from Memphis; a Fragment from the Temple of the Sun at Balbec; a marble fragment from Sidon; a capital and column from the tomb of Achilles, at Troy; a Turkish Monad, from the shores of the Levant; a portion of the temple erected by Miltiades on the plains of Marathon, where a victory was gained over Darius, on Sept. 12, 490 B.
