At day-light. lie was wanted upon by several gentlemen of the surround- ‘ iiig country, who paid their respects from the top 01" the walls that confined him, and appeared very much affected with delight at the prospect before them of a little sport. - lhe alligator was lying on its belly, with its disproportioned legs extended, and might have been conveniently measured Ill/all his portions; but it was thought as well to put off that iititil the exact tenacity of life had been ascertained.— The book, which was a single herb and straight shrink, about eleven. inches long, had entered the back part ofthe right upper jaw, and passing round the cheek bone, came out BIIOVR the eye. Thus he never could have escaped, but by the hook straightening or the rope giving way. It may be mentioned, that the hook above-described is far preferable to the small, grupueI-shaped affair which has been thought necelsary for this game. But the probabilities are, that this fellow would have taken any book, for he was ravenous, and u was not thought necessary even to float the bait, but draw- ing it a few feet out ofthe water on the mud, twohunds were left to watch and to report progress. When all we. quiet, he came straiglitnt it, and made no bones about it. The word was passed, and by the titne he had rolled him— selt over and overtwo or llifEE‘lltlIQF, some filly bands were pulling on u 25 inch rope, and “pull devil, pull baker,” was the order ofthe day, till he was safely housed—n matter of no slight difficulty, as may be supposed, considering that With his tail he could command a range ofsixteen feet. He appeared to have remained perfectly motionless during the Night, being found in the morning just as he was left. It may be mentioned that the ofi' hind leg was 06 at the first Joint—that is, the foot was wanting, for their extremetien are much more like hand: than feet. There are five fingers, three of which have large and long nails upon them. and the He was maimed also in the near fore-flapper, and had ev-idently been in the were.

Gentlemen who nmuue themselves with tiring ball at this kind oflarge game may save their powder and lead. The trials made with it ride show how heavy the odds are against doing anything with them. There was some difference ofopiniou as to whether a rifle-hall would pass through him, supposing it not to strike the scales. The first one fired with a View to this ex- periment entered the side below the strong settle: at the back, and the brute took not the slightest notice of it; a se- cond, near the entire spot, seemed not to trouble him in the least; neither. citizen), passed (though; they were fired from a distance of not more than ten feet. He was now stirred up in the rear with a long pole, uml he turned upon his as- sailants with a ferocity that Was terrific. People talk oftilli- gators not being able to turn easily: be was round with the rapidity of u flash; the report when he opened Illl jaws to their full extent and closet! them in his rage, was incredibly loud, anti gave 11 tolerablejdea of the enormous power of the jaws. A third shot was now fired with a view of finish- ing him. and the aim was behind the large raised scales, at the extreme end oftheJiead, so as to break the spine. This would appear to have been done, for he turned upon his back, and did not again recover his position. Aflera fourth ball and a most careful search for his heart with u bayonet and n spear, a rope was passed over him, and he Was drag- ged out, giving ever and anon sufficient warning of the pro- priety of standing aloof; a fifth ball in the spine appeared to . settle him. On passing the tape along his back. he meti- suretl to a nicety sixteen feet six incbel; but his tail, too, had been curtailed, eighteen inches less than one caught in he same place about three years ago, and of which u very perl‘eet skeleton-was made on the farm, taken to England by Mr. Waterbouse, and deposited in a museum in Yorkshire. With (1 heavy axe he was now divided just nlinft his hind le‘gs. The next process was an interesting one—rm exami-' nation oftlie stomach. It contained little portions of the skull ofu child, the thigh bones, some smaller ones, and the bones of one band: a quantity ofstt‘nw, a large ball of hair, about four feet ofincli rope,end six or eight bangles, two or three of which were ofsilver. Having cut 011' the treadmill weighed it, it wan found to be, to an ounce, two hundred weight. The muscular action in the tail-end, about six or seven feet, was extraordinary; for on inserting a knife to ex- pose the fat, which here lies in thick layers, the whole mess, saving only the chomp, was thrown into violent motion,eiid after performing several gyrntions almost on end, struck the ground with extraordinary violence: this was the efi'ect'of every insertion ofthe knife, and it could not have been less than an hourufter it was severed from the body. The head was five feet three-inches round the jaws, and three feet six inches long. It is cleaner! and preserved.
