The Sea Serpent.

A correspondent in Japan Of the New
I ork Evening Post writes: That inter-
esting specimen in natural history, the
sea serpent, has been seen again, this
| time between Malacca and Penang. The
fortunate spectators were the officers
and passengers OF the steamship Nestor,
who "unanimously vouch for the fact"
The commander, John w. Webster, has
published card on the subject, from
which l take the following account Of
the serpent:
Being on the bridge at the time
| (about 10 A. III y with the first and third
| officers, we were surprised by the ap-
pearance of an extraordinary monster
going in our course, and at an equal
speed with the vessel, at distance
from us of six hundred feet. 1t had q
square head, and dragon black and
white striped tail, and an immense body
which was quite fifty teet broad when the
monster raised it. The head was about
IL feet broad, and appeared to be oc-
casionally at the extreme about 6 feet
above the water. When the head was
placed on level with the waller, the
body was extended to its utmost limit
to all appearances, and the body rose
out OF the water about 2feet, and seemed
quite % feet broad at those times.
ihe long dragon tail with black and
white scales afterwards rose, and an
undulating motion in which at one time
the head, at another time the body,
and eventually the tail formed, each in
its turn, prominent object above the
water. The animal, or whatever it may
be called, appeared careless OF our close
proximity, and went our course for
about six minutes on our starboard
side, and then finally worked round TO

BILE. The design was then 10 get ont an
Injunction stopping the payment OF the
next dividend, on the grour l that not
enough money had been taken out OF
the mine to warrant such declaration.
Under the laws of this State such pro-
cess can be resorted to under such a
state of affairs. and ii it could be shown
that the money taken out. together with
the surplus cash on hand, did no,
amount to enough to pay the dividend
