How FLYING Fish Fly

how Flying Fish Ely.
A correspondent writes TO Nature: Au
excellent opportunity of observing the erlai
means of propulsion in the flying fish was
afforded me during six days calm lately
when crossing the Bay of Bengal. watched
day by day some hundreds rise under the
bows of the ship. The water surface was
CLASSY calm. AS each fish rose it spread
its wings at once, apparently beating the
surface with them two or three stokes DE-
fore they steadied out. say apparently,
for it was not definite beat so much as
struggle to rise The tail, which, OF course,
under water was in rapid motion, 10 escape
from the ship, now gave ten or dozen rap
id beats, which could be counted by the rip
ples on the still surface, and the fish was OIL
ia aerial fight. AS each fish lost the impe-
tus of the first rise, which generally nap
pened at about forty yards, the Dlnocu,
lars showed US the anal fins, which nad
till now been fully extended, droop-
ing to feel the water. As soon as the
surface was felt the tail was quickly
introduced, and five or six smart strokes also
indicated by ripples, brought the impetus
up again and carried the fish about another
thirty yards, when another droop sent it on
again, and so forth, some Of the older fish
travelling in this way 400 to 500 yards. The
younger fish frequently fell awkwardly in
this attempt to regain impetus. Where
waves are running it requires p clever fish
to gain impetus by few judicious strokes
on the crest OF a wave, and many atish tum
bles over in the attempt.
~ once saw q fish ride close TO the shlp's
quarter and it flew parallel with the ship,
pursued below by dolphin or bonita. The
latter followed every sway of the flying fish,
keeping almost under it. At the first dip OF
the tail the pursuer made dart forward,
but missed it, and again logged his prey by
keeping just under it. On the second dip
the tail went into its pursuer's mouth, and
there was au end Of the flyer. 1t always
struck me that it seemed IL strain on the fish
to keep the wings extended

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Virginia Advertiser
VOLUME L.WNPI.y

Tho GAZETTE was established in 1900 and t.
he oldest paper published in the State and with
one or two exceptions the oldest in the collil-
try. 1T is proposed to keep up its usefulness and

spared.
The GAZETTE circuiatcs among pc0plo who
consult It's advertising columns before purchas-
ing. That this is sclf-cvidcnt may he inferred
from the fact that large country cdition--ncar-
ly a3 large rs the daily--s sent out all over this
section Of country three times ii week, and is
read by thousands, most of whom send here or
to contiguous cities to make purchases. The adj
vantagcs of advertising in the GAZETTE are
apparent, and need no further demonstration.
The GAZETTE will continue to furnish The
and of Reuters European Agency, while its
Washington correspondence will furnish the
latest and most reliable news from the capital of
the nation.
The Commercial columns of the GAZETTE will
give the earliest and most exact financial and
commercial news, with reliable reports Of the
Grain, Cattle, Grocery and other Markets.
Its Richmond correspondence and special tcle
graphic dispatches will give early and accurate
accounts of the proceedings Of the General Assem-
bly, and Of all the operations Of the State govern
