Capt. Mclean of the bark Fifth of
Lyttleton, n. T., April 9th last,
passed Cape Horn May 23d, and ar
rived at London August 21st, reports
the following singular occurrence:
July 23d, when in latitude PSI
north, longitude 90 As west, float
ing spar was seen and boat was
lowered and the spar towed alongside.
On examination it was found to be
valueless, being worm eaten through
out, but a large shoal of fish which
had accompanied the spar abandoned
it and commenced eating the barna-
cles from the ships bottom. This
continued until the 9th of July,
when in latitude 40 north. longi-
tude "a Sc the fish left the ship after
having cleared the ships bottom, by
which the speed of the
vessel was increased two knots per
hour. Soon afterward a singular com
motion was observed on the ocean.
which was nearly calm. Birds were
seen moving about on the surface with
great rapidlty, occasionally disap-
pearing beneath the water and com
ing up again, half strangled. As the
vessel approached it was seen that a
shoal of fish several acres in extent
was visible on the water A gannet
or liver would alight on the back of
great fish, spread It's tail and wings to
catch the breeze, dig its claws deep
into the finny monsters hide, ans so
before the wind at such tremendous
speed as soon to drown the animated
craft. The bird would then devour
the fish at its leisure.

In the afternoon he has filed into his
iron basket from seven hundred to
two thousand shells. At that hour
the shells are opened by the officers,
who remove and retain In safe-keep-
ing the pearls, which are principally
what are known as black pearls, of
great rarity, and valued at present
higher IN proportion &c their size than
diamonds. The decks are then cleaned
up, the shells consigned to the hold,
and work discontinued for the re-
malnder of the day. The pearls and
shells are sold in the markets of Lon
don, Paris, and Hamburg principally
in London.
Preparations are being made by the
company. which has an unpretentious
office at No. 3a2 California street, to
send INTO the waters of the gulf as
soon as possible large fleet of vessels,
equipped with all the most modern
improvements in diving apparatus,
and the company expects to. realize
millions every year. As furth2r In
stance of the enormous powers con-
ferred by the Gonzales government on
its favored monopolies, the holders
of the concessions are auth
orlzed, without any process of
law, by force of arms if neces-
sary, to arrest any person found fish
ing in the waters of the gulf without
permit or license from Senior Hidalgo
and his associates or their assigns, to
seize their vessels. and consign them
to the Mexican authorities, to be dealt
with according to Mexican law, and
all custom house officers on the gulf
coast have been instructed to recognize
the permits and license of the holders
of the concession, with the same effect
as if issued from the fountain-head of
the government. Truely this may
be called a gigantic Mexican mono
poly.

TO ACHE, OR NOT TO ACHE.

Or to take steel against p host II troubles
And BY extracting, end shemt To pull-to

No more: And by a tug to say we end
The tooth ache, and thousand natural ills
The law is heir 10: it's a consumation
Deyoutly TO be wished! To pull-to tug
To tug-perchanee TO break! Ay, there's the
rub.
For in that wrench what agonies may come,
When we have half-dislodged the stubborn foe
Must give US pause. There the respect
That makes an aching tooth of so long life.
For who would bear the whips and stings OF
pain,
The old wife's nostrum, dentists contunely;
The pangs OF hope deferred, kind sleeps delay.
The insoence Of pity, and the sPurns
That patient sickness Of the healthy taxes
When he himself might his quetus MAKE
For fifty cents Who would fardels bear,
To groap and sweat beneath a load OF PAM
But that the dread of something lodg q wIthih
The linen twisted forceps. from whose pangs
No jaw at ease returns!-puZzleS the wiz,
And makes it rather bear the ills IL has,
Than fly to others that IL knows not or
Thus dentists do make towards OF us all
And thus the native hue Of resolution
Is sickied o 'sr with the pale cast VI Tear,
And many a enc, whose courage seeks the door,
With this regard his footsteps turn away,
Scared az the name Of dentist.
