prevents the nayig atiou OF the river by smiling

Guilty in traversing it. The trips OF the Mary

AN UNEXPECTED VISITOR. Among the ar.

AN UNEXPECTED VISITOR. -Among the ar
rival, this week some Of our citizens had the
pleasure of welcoming rather singular stran-
Ger. who selected the sea in preference to the
land route. although We have no regular pas
.euser line between this and other ports. The
strange visitor, nevertheless, entered the har.,
Dor. regardless Of quarantine regulations, and
made directly from the battery, where II pre-
sented itself in the form Of a manatee. or sea
COW. It was monster of its species, 6eing
fully eighteen feet in length, OF gray. olach
color, with hair or bristes on the back, hlppefs
or fore fins tipped with nails, a head ike cow :
and thick, broad tail. 1t freq1entS the Gnf
of Mexico and the coasts Of Florida, as far
north as the mouth of the Indian river. SO
the present specimen was somewhat out OF IT'S
latitude aud whether it strayed from It's herd
or was impelled by the same curiosity which IN.
duces SO many Of the human species to visit
the Ancient City, is not known. There are
various surmises on this poiut-some declaring
that there is heard of them in the, vicinity,
others that it lost its companions, and straylng
hther, made for the nearest port: After I'M,
gering about ten minutes near the battery, and
giving the spectators fair view of oil its parts
in the clear water, il left and made tor the
North river, where it probably still is, as TINS
animal prefers brackiSh waters to salt, and hnds
its food in rivers rather than in the sea- 1t VIII
be worth the trial for our hardy and adventur-
Gus fishermen to go in pursuit OF this singular
monster which can be easily discovered II still
in the river, especially these moonlight nights,
since it is its habit 20 raise its head aud breast
high out of the water, and to float Tor miles Ill
this manner, Tapping its fus.-F'tortdn Taper.
