M1scELLANEoUs READING.
FISH STORIES.

Ever since the days of Jonah fish stories
have been remarkably large; it seems 'natur
al TO the breed" We have fished up II
string" of them from ''here and there for
the benefit of our readers. The first comes
from the Richmond Enquirer" that end or
ses the statement that on recent occasi
sturgeon was caught in the Rappahapnock
river weighing nine hundred pounds. From
Maryland paper We learn that a gentleman
who has lately been spending few days on
the Cibolo relates the following as authentic:
A few evenings since q lad set a line out in
the creek to catch catfish, next morning
he visited his line, when he found it too
heavy for him. Obtaining aid, he brought
his line to the bank, when, wonderful to re-
late, there was an eel and two large catfish
on it, one weighing 25 and the other 23lbs.
This fish problem was thus solved: 1t seems
the eel was first hung on the hook, then cat
fish number one coming along swallowed
eel, who wouldn't stay swallowed, and slip
ped Mr.. Cats gills, stringng him on the line;
then catfish number two came along and
likewise swallowed eel, who again escaped
Jonahism by slipping through his gills, do
ing honor to the slippery reputation OF his
race. This is true story, and can be testi-
fed to by responsible witnesses. From the
Honolulu papers we obtain information OF n
strage fish caught by the natives while in
pursuit of shrimp. 1t is of dark color
about FIVE inches long, two inches thick.
and about four inches from the top of the fin
on its back to the bottom of its belly 1t has
a remarkably large head, and four feet or
claws, which enable it to creep on the sides
of rocks with great ease. When placed in n
pail of water it threw out quite stream
from under the fms on each side of its body,
then took circuit round the bucket by
clinging 10 the sides. and walking apparent
ly with great pride. The feet resemble
somewhat the paws of bear. The Kappa
hammock "Southerner" has recently seen a
curiosity fshed up by Mr.. Alex. Leland. out
of Carter's Creek. 1t consists of u portion OF
common junk bottle. to which several oys-
ters had grown. and one. the largest and
probably the most dissipsted of the party
had grown partly into the neck Of the
bottle. completely filling it up. Whether
the oyster went into the bottle to get
drink, got tight. and could not get out,
is not known. but certain it is. that himself
and his companions seem very much at
tached to the bottle.-.Spirit Of the Times.
