A Fish story.

There is nothing more touching than
the absolute faith manifested by some
editors in the gullibility of the general
public. They relate the most astound
ing incidents with such confident air
of truth that one is at loss to know
what is the real editorial estimate Of
popular credulity. Here comes a story
from California, which informs US that
DR.. Fulkerson, gentleman of unim-
peachable veracity, had occasion to cross
kelsey creek soon after freshet He
found great difficulty, however, in ford
ing, the fish we're so thick in the water
There were salmon-trout from one to
three feet long, perch from ten to eigh-
teen inches long, and variety of sucker,
all in solid mass so dense that they
crowded each other on shore and died
by thousands. DIR. Fulkerson said that
one could shovel them out by the wagon
load, like grain out of bin. 1t is the
Sonoma Democrat that testifies to the
unimpeachable veracity Of the gentle
man who saw the fish, and now if some
person would kindly come forward aud
vouch for the Democrat, the authenticity
of the story would be fully established.
Until this is done we shall believe that
the mantle Of the redoubtable Munchau-
sen has fallen on a party by the name
of Fulkerson.
