CAPTURE OF A MONSTER CAYMAN.-Op
Friday afternoon last, during hunting
expedition in the swamps of the forks of
Congaree and Wateree Rivers, Messrs.
Belton Joyner, Lowman, Blakely and
Sloye succeeded in capturing an alligator,
which may be termed the king-in size
at least-his weight being $50 pounds
and his length seventeen feet. He is
very ferocious. and, with o snap of his
immense tail, broke the leg of O oolored
boy, besides wounding several other per-
sons. before he could be secured. The
captors nre entitled to the cognomen OF
the Hunters of the Period" as they
have bagged the alligator of the pc
riod." This monster would prove a
valuable acquisition to any museum.
Where's Barnum? His ulligatorship ia
safely housed in Columbia.
