account of the Sword Fish, its habits, structure, kc, with the following graphic description of the capture of one of these
submarine "gun boats." "One of these gigantic warriors of the deep was captured on Saturday latd, on the south shore of our island, in a manner somewhat remarkable. He had probably given chase to some straggling blue ti-h or scuppaug (paugy, as the New Workers call them) which instinctively fled to wards shoal water, where the pursuer got aground; when the surf rolled hun further up the strand, subjecting his head and fins to exposure in another element. In this situation he was discovered by two females in a calash from Siascon-et. It certainly lequired some nerve to attack a monster d liis dimensions, grovelling and floundering just within his native brine; and the elder of the two felt rather disinclined to engage in such sport. But the younger went manfully to the scratch, ami her companion followed. They lock him by the
Edmund P. Hunter, Esq who lately became proprietor and editor of the Mar tinsburg, (Va.)

There is no inconsistency in the two characters of a gentleman and an editorand whenever the Latter abandons the character of the former, partizan spirit should never interposp lo rescue hitn from the reproaches of the craft whom ho has disgraced.

Cure for the Rhmmatism and Gout. A correspondent of the National Intelligencer furnishes the following receipt for the cure of those painful diseases: "Take four ounces of Colchicum seed, steep it in one quart of Madeira wine let it stand ten days, when it will be fit for use, strain it through a flannel, and take one to a half tea-spoon full three times a day until relieved. Should it sicken the stomach, either stop taking or fake a less quantity. The same seed will answer to steep ounce more with the Eame quantity of wine.
