The next few days will develop
whet her or not there will be more
cases of small pox in Montrose. IL
is now time for the symptoms to show
in the case of those who were exposed
by the original nine cases and who
have since been closely quarantined.
The epidemic in Butler is distressing.
There were over thirty acknowledged
cases last week and three deaths have
occurred. Several cases of the con-
lagoon exist in the country, even a.
far as the county line.
As TO Butler. the Clinton Democrat
is entirely mistaken in regard to the
deaths from the so-called smallpox.
There has not been a death or even
severe sickness among the patients
afflicted Business in every line IN
the city has gone on as usual. There
have been no new eases in the past
two weeks and the well regulated
quarantine by the city authorities
has about stamped out the disease
here There were two funerals in
Butler Sunday. the Sth. one OF these.
j. b. Armstrong; little boy, died
from pneumonia, and the other,

SHARK STORY THIS TIME.
San Francisco's Surfeit of Whale stories
Varied.

SAN FRANCISCO, August S.-Some-
where on the broad Pacific is a shark
with a ships name branded into his
smooth skin. He has a wounded jaw
and a sore back, but these injuries do
not seem to bother him much and he
is still following the tempting bait of
pork that able seamen, with malice in
tent, lower astern for his especial bene-
fit.
The Hawaiian bark Willscott, Cap
tain Peabody commanding, arrived this
morning from Tyne, and her skipper
told the story of his crews little joke
on the vicious old man of the sea in the
report to the Merchants Exchange,
Captain Peabody explained himself
graphically This is what he said:
I'VE had very fine weather in the
South Pacific and light variable winds
although from 80 south to 20 south we
experienced very heavy seas. In the
North Pacific we have had the same,
very trying to ones patience There
were light winds with intervening
Gains. None of us have ever expert
enced such a monotonUus succession of
light winds as we had the whole of
the passage, and at times we were al
most led to believe that we were des-
tined to wind up our nautical career
| after the Ancient Mariners so repeat
eddy
Down dropt the breeze the sails dropt
down,
Twas sad as sad could be,
And we did speak, only to break
| The silence of the sea.
| Day after day, day after day,
| We stuck, nor breath nor motion,
AS idle as painted ship
Upon painted ocean.
ION July II, in lat u north, lon, III
west, we caught several sharks, one
feet in length and weighed fully $50
pounds, we branded with the ships
name and turned loose again; but all
| though he was subjected to some rath-
er tough treatment while being drag
ged on board, and had a capstan bar
showed down his throat to keep him
quiet while undergoing the process of
branding swan off in a very leisurely
manner, but no doubt somewhat dis
gusted, when thrown overheard again.
| Within an hour the same shark was
again under the stern, smelling with
evident delight the lump of pork with
which the huge hook was baited; but
in spite of the assurances of safety
and the many Establishments heaped
upon him by some half dozen pilot
| fish that were again in attendance, he
| could not be induced to bite. We pre-
| sumo his mouth was too sore, as it was
/ badly torn by the hook In his violent
| struggles to escape when first hooked.
| The ocean about here was also liter
ally swarming with fine turtle, and a
small schooner could easily have been
loaded with them"
