On the Ilth instant, a curious fish, supposed to
belong to the species known among sailors by the
name of Johnny Dory, was found entangled behind
the pailing of a sea-fence, below Dunmore harbour,
Scotland. It must have got into this situation dur-
ing high-water. When found, the water had left
it, and it was heard bleating like a lamb, which it
continued to do till the fis:ier who first made the
discovery killed it. It was carried to Dunmore-
house. It weighed 42 pounds, was three feet long
and 20 inches broad, The colour of the fish was
black, with large whitish spots on the sides, without
any scales; the eves as large as those of a horse;
the mouth quite round, without teeth ; and so large
as to admit a man's hand freely ; and round the extre-
mity of the mouth is a folding of the skin, resemb-
ling a swine's snout. The belly only was fat, and
and the flesh resembled veal in taste. A person
from the West Indies described it as a native of
that country; that he had many, but none nearly
so large

The passengers already on board were all iinme-
d4tely disembarked, without the slightest accident
having happened to any of them ; and some appre-
h•asion:s being entertained lest the vessel might take
fire from the extreme heat of the boiler, she was
scuttled and sunk alongside the pier. •
