Remarkable Capture Of . whai,

Remarkable Capture Of whale.
The Wilmington Journal gives the following
facts relative to the capture of whale below
that city:
"The whale recently captured is one Of the
fn-back species, and was first seen about sun
rise on Tuesday, March 20, and soon after
grounded on an oyster rock near Smithville.
He got clear, however,Iand started up the
channel, agitating the water more than an
ordinary steamboat. He shortly run aground
again, this time opposite the residence Of Mr..
Stuart. VIM. Warren, gentleman in Smith
vile, fred at him while IN this position, but
he appeared perfectly regardless of the shot
and extricating himself again, lie started up
the channel. A schooner named the Planet,
then started in pursuit, and found him stuck
on Shows marsh, opposite Fort Fisher, but
on coming up TO him it was discovered that
he had again succeeded in extricating himself,
and was making directly for the schooner.
This movement on the part Of the whale
caused great deal of CONSERVATION among
the crew of the vessel, which wasimmediately
faced about, and all haste made for the scene
of action, but on proceeding short distance
they discovered that the whale was probably
as badly frightened as the crew. and had also
changed his course, and was making all speed
in opposite direction, and was in short
time seen to run ashore near the place where
he had just got of.
: small boat was sent to reconnoitre bis
position. Finding him fast aground. and the
tide falling, the schooner proceeded TO smith
vile to get the assistance of the sloop Flash,
and also to obtain the services OF . gentleman
residing in Smithyille, who had seen several
years experience in the whaling business.
'.On their return, the tide having fallen
considerably, the huge monster Was discovered
to be almost out of water. The first object
was to kill him-a accordingly hole was cut
in his side and the old whaler ran his sword
in until his arm was almost imt edded in his
body His heart was eventually pierced but
even then it was nearly two long hours before
he ceased to breathe. In his fury he would
throw a stream of water six inches in dame
ter fully hundred feet high. His dimensions
were ascertained to be as follows: Fifty Six
feet long. and twenty seven feet in circumfer-
ence. The head is about one third the entire
length. The jaws are sixteen feet long on
either side, aid nine feet across the throat,
The tail is about twelve feet wide. and serves
him as a weapon. He is only about half
grown. and weighs thirty-six tons, or seventy
two thousand pounds.
ITO give some idea of his immense weight
it is stated that syen after the upper jaw and
skull were cut nway. il was impossible owing
to the immense weight, to get the under jaw
on the deck OF the schooner, so it mus, re.
main in the water untiif the flesh decays, be.
fore the bone can be saved.
The carcass would have made sixty bar
rels Of oil, if facilities could have been OBJ
tanned for trying out the blubber. As i, is,
only about twenty FIVE barrels, or eight hun
cred gallons, have been saved.

DURING recent trip up the river We were
much indebted to the kindness of the officers
of the steamer New Boston; especially to
Capt. Buford and the clerk, Mr.. Gr;nnel,
would we return our grateful acknowledge
ments.
The New Boston leaves Fort Madison for
Davenport every Tuesday, Thursday and
Saturday mornings on the arrival of the train
from Keokuk, and travellers bound up the
Mississippi will find the New Boston safe
and good boat, making connections on time
at both ends of the route.
