immense pelican bill, from five to ten feet in length, the gigan- tie bulldog head and the mammoth, slimy neck, appeared high in air; the vast tail lashing the water into fury, and the enor-

The monster | Was in the exact wake of the boat and 'varges, but it travelled with such tremen- dous velocity that turning out of the course was impossible. [tis believed that its locomotion was at least twenty miles an hour, and Captain Carraway at once real. ized that if the ponderous body, with it: i resistible momentum, should strike his fragile vessel the boat would capsize in an instant or be shattered to splinters.

streams of water that shot forty feet into the air and fell in torrents into the river on either side.

The serpentine body swayed tortuous] and with frightful rapidity through the muddy waters, while the prodigious fore parts of the colossal reptile rose and sunk and swayed like a Stygian horrcr, tbreac- ening to swaijlow and devour all that came within its reach. When within 150 or 200 yards the horrid reptile, as if it had just discovered an obstacle in its track, siack- ened its precipitate pace and for an instaut

30 Joud and deep and oasieat tas it gave the boat a tremulous motion, the huge ‘creature came to a dead.stop, aud with it monstrous bill, head and neck reared per- pendicularly, seemed like a watery demon rising from the bosomot the deep, Here Captain Carraway, despite the terror thst had necesearily taken ion. of him, obtained a good view of the mouster, xt least the parts that were above water, and his description of the horrific spectacle i- sufficiently minute and accurate to deserve reproduction. Carraway alleges that there ismo doubt the monster has a pelican~ shaped bill, but that its length, which has heretofore been described as being five feet long, will measure at least ten feast. [t appeared more like an immense hors than a beak, and in shape wa. much like the pointed sword of the spear fish, though larger and longer, and decidedly more formidable as a weapon of offensive warfare. It was from and through this bill that the monster spouted water, the water being thrown from a point near the head. Captain Carraway, who is an old 'whaler, stated that the spouting, unlike that of the whale, which throws its stream upward in a straight colump, was made in oblique directions, and that the volume of water spouted and the height reached were twice as great as that thrown by the whale. The head is described to have been four or five feet across, black and shining, and its shape bearing a close resemblance to thatof the bulldog. Cap tain Carraway thinks the anima! bore on its head two short horns, but of all this be is not certain, as the time for observation was very short, There could be no doubt, however, a8 to the canine shape of the head, and of the phenomenal circumstance that to this dog’: head was attached a bili or beak, fashioned iike that of « pelican. The neck appeared to be ten or twelve feet in length, narrow and serpeutine, and ‘swaying and writhing with a motion like ‘that of a snake poised in water. The sides | and under portions of the neck were evi

dently covered with burnished scales of changeable hue, but from the top of the | neck there grew what had tbe appearanc:

of a mane, resembling that of a horse, be» ing thick and shiny and of a greenish tint. This mane reached from the base of the ‘head to the body and depended from the neck in Jong strands. ‘hose were the only ' parts of the body that were visible except the fins, On the back there appeared to ba adorsal fin, nfteen or twenty feet in length, measuring along the back, and per- | haps three or four feet in height.

The body being sunk m the water, how- ever, could not be seen, and Captain Car. raway says he may be mistaken as to this ‘dorsal fin, and only describes it #s it ap. ‘paared to him during the momentary ops \portunity he had for observation. side fins were of monstrous proporti extending fifteen feet on either side. a ‘while onster paused they rose and dippe into the water rapidly” throw. ing Wf waves in a forward difect on

in the meantime he arranged his world’y affairs. quietly and satisfactoriiy. When the father came the Admiral re. ceived the last sacrament. He then ad

dressed a few words of consolation and ad. vice to his family. Soon after he became delirious, looked up, and ordered every window closed, that the rain might not be blown in, Then, after a few moments of silence, he said, ‘* You will see the judge about it. The case has not been decided properly, [ask for nothing but justice . should | not have it? Promise me to at- tend to this matter, since | cannot do it myself.’ Then he imagined that he stood upon the deck of his ship, preparing for battle; be conversed with his oflicer< on the appearance of the enemy, prepar. ing for a decisive conflict. This speedily passed away, and a short period of return to conscigusness followed, during which thoroughly ccn cious that this, indeed, was his last battle, he calmly bade farewell to each member of his family. Death did not close his eyes or stop his breath, how. ever, eré he pronounced his confidence in (rod and his hope and belief in salvation.

THE THREE FRENCH | MANIPES.- TOES.

As the day for the l’rench elections ap - proaches, anxiety for the result naturally rises high in France. The leaders on botik sides have spoken. ‘The dictatorial ad. dress of the Marstial-President was ans- wered from the grave, as it were, in the clear and logical address of Thiers, and now the foremost Republican of France. Laon

Gambetta, addresses the electors, The address of Marshal MeMahon, which curi ously opened by saying that he would ieave Frenchmen tree to vote as they pleased. wound up in a series of threats which meant that if they did not choose his candidates he would rule Franee in hi. own way and through his own instrume ot- inspite of the people. To the famou:

. TH that the Mar shal must.‘ submit or resign’ the Jatte: plainly replied that be would do neither. At last, then, the issue was joined. Every- thing that full.contro! of the elective ma- chinery, of the Government patronage. oi the courts, of the press consorship cou} oring to the aid of the government candi dates had been used with relentlessne.s agd vigor. It is questionable, however, wheth. er these engines of power will accomplish: their object. The pitiless logic of Thier:. whieh holds up the enemies of the Repub. be—the legitimists, </rleanists, Bonapart.. ists and clericals—as a “happy family” ready to fall at each other's throats, if tho decision of the future of France be left ti them, will probably go further with the French mind. **‘ France has not perished’ says M. Thiers. “but three monarchies have perished.” Well up to the standard of the address of Thiers is that of Gambet< ta. Asthe time is shorter, the conflict nearer, and the man younger, its tone is sharper, its language bolder than tit of the late ex-President. It offers no eom- promise. Itlooks the gloomy future whict De Broglie and Fortou are preparing full in the face. It will be noted, especially that Gambetta reiterates what he said at Lille, what he was pros@euted and convict- ed for sayingand what the Marshal wrote his address to answer—namely, that when France has spoken there will be no alter. native but to “submit or resige.” Terri- bly in earnest, he says that ‘ the country shall know how to make its will prevail ever a powerless and incorrigible minor. ity.” Between the threats of the Marsha! and the unyielding confidence of the Re- publican leader there are gloomy possibil» ities ahead, It is evident that the Repub licans are taking the buttons off their foils. —N.

Mr. McKenzie lately told the people of Wellington, in something of a jaunty style, that the honor of leading Her Majesty’s Opposition was a prospect far distant, and the cares of office were a burden which he is doomed to bear for many years to come.

Now, if he belieygdtie syHable of this himself, we might try to comfort him by pointing out Ufat, unless the laws ol moral, social, and economic kind combine to deceive us, hélwill be free from the toris of office before heis. much older. He i tired, poor man,@nd nOWonder: fora white bear transpor tga to the topics would not be more out its natural element. then is Mr. McKen@ie in the position of a Uabi« net Minister. But still,if it comforts him anything to know It, the people are suli more tired of him and his gaucheries, his official blunders, his scandalous jobs, and his frequent deplevuon of the public chest to enrich friends and. reward his part zane. He may therefore rest assurred, that the

s of Canada only require an oppor- ‘tunity to lay him on the shelf, not for # short respite from toil, but to relieve the county of an incubus that has cost the people millions through his incapac ty and ‘dishonesty as & Minister. — London Herald,
