Great Fun With a Whale.

The officers and soldiers at Fort Adams
have had the opportunity to engage in
actual warfare, and improved the chance
with great alacrity. An attack was
made on the garrison by huge whale,
and all hands were called to repel board
ers. The whale is what is known as
sulphur bottom whale. which are plenti-
full on the coast OF Maine, and was about
twenty feet long. He was first seen by
Surgeon Horizons son on the upper side
of The south dock. lie gave the alarm
10 the attendant at the hospital, who first
attacked the whale with pistol, firing Il
good number Of shots, but producing no
effect Whatever. The officers and men Of
the battery then gathered and made a
united attack, using Sabres, guns. pistols.
and. in fact, everything except the field
pieces was brought to bear on it. Some
of the men jumped overheard and finally
got rope around him. \ piece of gas
pipc was ten stuck in his blOw.hole.
But he soon broke away, and as he swan
around the front of the wharf, the port
launch was backed into him by Captain
Lee, and he was cut into in several
places by the propeller. The launch then
started to chase the whale down the cove
opposite the stable, where he was finally
run ashore and killed. The scene was
,ery ludicrous one; many of the men at
different times jumped on the whales
back, only to be flung off by the creatures
