When laid my dead ashore.

On my loved ones marble breast,

A burden that ever has press'd.

What Can be Found In a Cod.

A fruitful source of specimens were
the carcasses of fish. Many scores OF
curious creatures could be taken from
the stomach of Goldfish. Indeed, the
cod may well be dubbed the alderman
of the deep, so voracious is his appetite.
and so omnivorous his taste. A list of
the luxuries which have travelled down
his capacious nav may remind one of
the menu of fish dinner at Greenwich.
The catalogue comprises huge number
OF little crabs and Holsters, served whole
in their shells, by way of tickling the
palate. Then come, if not a fishy ONE
LET, at least some eggs of fish, those of
the dogfish being eaten in their trans
parent pot of capsule, to give them
nice crispness, like the cracking of roast
pig. Next day we counted some sea-
cucumbers, served in lieu of salad, with
quart or so of shrimps. Then dainty
dish ofzoophytes, followed by few sea-
urchins, which seem to give smack of
cannabilism, by way of further relish.
For game there appears to be skeleton
of a partridge, plainly gulped down in
its feathers: while a cluster of ripe
beechnuts serve for the dessert. Finally,
there figures in the list of luxuries lit
tie bit of pewter, with the fragment Of
some cloth, as if the glutton in his
haste had swallowed his spoon and nap
