IN offering this curious animal to public view, th

',cgs to inform his visitors that tine y Jag;
,nfound it with the Marine Wolf, as it is quite of a different species.
he female which he has the honour to present to the public, and
rhich weighs 8 cwt., obeys the word of conimand, and executes
arious performances, which have caused great admiration to the
rst naturalists of England, France, and Portugal.
The creature, notwithstanding its greatferocity, has with difficulty
,een tamed, and, in a sense, domesticated. Such is its present
locility and obedience, that it has left its locatity at night in search
if its owner, and has laid down to sleep by his side. It is of epor-
nous bulk, has two rows of teeth, and is cohered with fine 'hair:

It only feeds on fish, of which it daily eats the enormous quantity
)f 45 Ms. It is ferocious and dangerous to its enemy, but docile to
is keeper, whose orders and expressions it comprehends, and
whose face and hands it kisses. Its intelligence is so acute, that it
pronounces several words distinctly. _ .

The public are respectfully solicited to view this most extraordi-
iarranimal, as itM like may never be exhibited again. '
The Proprietor is likewise bound by engagement to appear, at an
rarly date, in London, for the purpose of exhibiting this marv-"
