There is nothing like being in passion. if one
desires to amuse the world; under the influence
of a little excitement, man will say more IN a
breath than he would be willing to stand to all
the rest of his life. There is beautiful in
stance of this in the first epistle of the Great
Offended to Mr.. Ingham. Speaking of the Te-
legraph he says: SIN that paper of this evening
is contained the following remark of my wife,
lit is proved that the Secretaries of the Treasu-
nv, and of the Navy. and of the Attorney Gene
raj refused to associate with her." We would
not have believed the Secretary's lady capable Of
such an insult to the Secretary himself. but the
authority seems to be indsputable. "Masters,"
says the learned Justice Dosberry, sit is proved
already that you little better than false knayes,
and it will go near to be thought 50 shortly
If people should happen to think so, after the as
sertcn quoted by the Secretary, 1t is impossible
to say what will be the result; but we apprehend
that he has. like hs prototype before quoted,

brought home the skull and hide of Sea Tiger,
taken near the South Georgia Islands. This brave
tenant of the deep measured seven feet in length,
and girted three and half when killed. The
general shape of the head is like that of the
mon seal. with the exception that it is more elon-
gated. and the sockets of the eyes deeper and
broader. 1t measures fifteen and quarter inch
cs from the extremity of the nose to the great hole
of the occipital bone. The length of the lower
Jaw from the chin to the point of articulation with
the upper jaw bone is eleven and a half inches.
A straight line drawn from one artculating pro-
cess to the other, measures inches. The num-
Der Of teeth is thirty two-tour of which are tusks
The largest tusk is an inch and quarter long,
and one inch In circumference at its base. In
each jaw, there are ten grinders. which. immedi-
atey after emerging from their sockets, are d.
vided into three distinct conical portions the CEN
trail division being more than half an inch long,
and the two lateral ones the fourth of an inch
all terminating with sharp smooth points. The
skin Is covered with fine, thick, short hair, Of
gray color on the back, and spotted with black
and white on the abdomen. 1t has short, strong
fippers. The sea tiger moves with surprising We
locty in the water, and all its motions in that ee
