A MONSTER SHARK-The New Orleans
Picayune, tells the following;

n MONoIEh nc ANcn OllGduS
.Picayune, tells the following;
Some days ago the captain of a ship at an
schor outside the Pass, threw overheard a
shark hook bsited, not expecting in the least,
as the captain himself says, to catch anything
e,of the fish tribe There was hooked, howev-
er, a shark of the spotted kind, and, as it af-
terwards proved, a regular imam eater" He
had to be harpooned before his capture could
be effected. His size and weight may be i'm
sagined from the fact that it took to hoist him
eleven men, with double lift on the main
yard.
The monster measured seventeen feet eleven
inches in length from tail to snout, and nine
feet in circumference He had seven rows of
teeth, three of the rows being almost hidden
in the upper gums His liver exactly filed
''up beef barrel.
In his paunch was found body of man
in half decomposed state. So far as could be
judged, the corpse was that of well dressed
man, Of medium size-shirt white, with pearl
buttons, coarse silk under shirt, cotton socks,
and shoes nearly new, of the Congress gaiter
kind.
The shark had also in his stomach several
pieces of old canvas such as are used bv YES
sells on their rigging.
The jawbone of this sea pirate has been
brought up to the city. 1t is large enough to
take in sugar barrel.

hill, and you sink into each valley, and except
an occasional solitary traveller with his servant
and his muleteer or Turkish official with
his party, rarely does moving object appear
upon the landscape. No cattle are on the
land, and no passengers are on the highways.
How lonely it isl and this loneliness strikes
you more like that Of the desert, for it seems
unnatural, because here there should be life
and there is none. Sometimes you may make
out at distance on the hillside single figure
of man upon donkey. 1t is the only moving
thing your eye can detect all round And so
you go on through this desolate land. From
Jerusalem to Beyrout you scarcely light up
on one single scene of rural industry-not one
single scene Of life that can be compared with
those on the Arab pastures from the top Of
Jabel ell Suar to the wells of e Mileh. There,
in places, the country was full of people and
children, and focks and herds-a rejoicing
picture Of pastoral existence in all its abound
ing wealth; while here, in the country
Of tilage, and towns, and villages, the
whole land seemed to lie under a spell.

Is THE Sun INHAB1TED?-Sir David Brews-
ter states that so strong has been the belief
that the sun cannot be habitabe world that
scientific gentleman was pronounced by his
medical attendant insane, because he had sent
a paper to the Royal Society, in which he
maintained that the light of the sun proceed
ed from a dense and universal aura, which
may afford ample light to the inhabitants be-
meath, and yet be at such distance aloft as
not to be among them; that there may be wa
ter and dry land there hills and dales rain
and fair weather. and that as the light and the
season must be eternal the sun may easily be
conceived to be by far the most blissful hab-
itation of the whole system. In less than ten
years after this apparently extravagant notion
was considered as proof of his insanity, it
was maintained by Sir William Herschell as
a rational and probable opinion, which might
be deducible from his own observations on
the structure Of the sun.
