FOUR WHALES TAkEN vi fits SHANNON.

On Tuesday last, as some of the fishermen, living
near Rea Hill, on the banks of the lower Shannon,
at the Clare side, about four miles below Carriga-
hoult, were pushing from the shore in their canoes,
for the purpose of laying down spinet's in the Usual
way, they observed several swells in the water.—
On venturing to approach what so forcibly caught
their attention, several huge substances .aeetned float-
ing along scarcely appearing above the sutrace.—
The canoe-men finding themselves in imminent
danger, rowed with all their strength to get outside;
in which they luckily succeeded. •By this time it
was evident that the motion of the waters proceed-
ed from some sea monsters of an enormous size,
seemingly in pursuit of herrings or some small
fish, and a heavy fog which prevailed in the
morning, strengthened the supposition that they
altogether had missed their reckoning. Be this
as it may, in the trap of a receding tide the
fishermen resolved to net their visitors. This de-
termined on, the wise men of the squadron put
their heads together, when the artillery of the quarry,
the canoe-men having no other weapons on board,
was instantly resorted to—the charge was awfully
perilous—the brave fishermen, however, persevered
until their prizes were stoned into Rea Hill Bay,
when the tide being rapidly on the ebb, soon left
them high and dry on the sand banks. The canoes
having by this landed their crews, these hardy sons
of Clare beheld with joy that they had secured four
small whales, not altogether unlike in some parts the
Bottle or Pike-nose Whale or Grampus, described
in Shaw's Zoology, but in other respects very dif-
ferent. They have no dorsal fin, and are with-
out teeth, their places being supplied with a
demi-ossious substance ; the lower jaw is much
smaller than the upper, which is quite the reverse
in the. grampus; they have two pectoral and two
abdominal
.fins ; the snout proceeds abruptly from the
head not unlike the dolphin. The colour does not
vary, the back and chest having the appearance of a
uniform polished lead colour; they have each but
one fistula or spout hole on the back, not far behind
the eye, through which they discharge enormous
quantities of water at intervals, causing the appear-
ance of a marine Jet d'eau ascending to a vast height
in the air. The maxillary bone of the largest of
these fisk measured about three feet and a half, the
fish themselves being from 27 to 30 feet in length,
the circumference being. about 15 feet, and the
height, when lying, being over five feet, each being
in size equal to six large cows : it is expected that
they will produce to the captors from foie• to five
tons of oil, or from SOL to 100/. worth.—Dablin
