He was a channel bass, weighing twenty-two pounds. Within twenty minntoa I took a second ono, weighing a little short of fourteen pounds. At Seventy, near Pepper Hammock, I oanght a twenty-fivo-ponnd fellow. marrooT yisanto at inosxaHT. I camped ail days on tho shore of Banana aronnd as if crazy, and invariably dash trader the boat. It requires nerve and skill to lead them. The beat snapper Sthing is :a Ini an river inlet, opposite Fort Capron. The inlet ie alive with game fish. There are bass, snappers, grouper, jeafish. and eavallo, or “nrevalyea," as the nativea call them, in abnndanoe. Bat the shark* are jmt a» plentiful, and of enarmona size. They amuse tbemaelvee by walking off srith yonr fish after yon have booked him. They lay claim to abont every third fiih. and tale hook, ainker, and all with the utmost assurance. ZIGBTZCC PZBSOSS KATZW BT SSABZI. The water fairly boils with aharkz. I eonnted one hnndred and twelve within the space of an acre, none of which were leas than eight feet long. Indian river people say that they have seen them twcn'T feet in length. I saw one that measured over seventeen feet. They would frequently break nnder the bows of oar twenty-one foot Bail-boat, careening her to one aide and at times half lifting her from the water. They flocked abont the boat by dezens, and cast hungry looks at the hnge yellow dog on the f .rocristie. Atone time I struck * twelve foot fehow over tho anont with e heavy boat pole He made a great swirl throngh the water as if surprised, but saucily darted back to the craft t i see what had h;t him. Occasionally boatmen plunge lily irons into them, and are towed abont the river against wind and tide for miles. Some of the natives declare that they are man- eaters, while others deny it. Jim Paino, cf Fort Capron, told me that he bad etood in the water for hoars while these big sharks were noiicg about his legs, bnt Dr. Fox, my guide, «e-raed afraid of them, and declared that he had known them to pull an estimable young lady from Savannah ont of a boat while she was dragging her band behind the stern. She was ent into mince meat in fire seoonds. Daring the war, it is said, that a boat containing four teen men was np-et in Jupiter Inlet, abont twenty feet from shore. There was a foaming of the waters, and in half a minute twelve of the fourteen men disappeared. The water tinged with blood marked the spots where they had been drawn nnder. Two of the sailors got ashore, bnt so bitten and in shreds that they died soon afterward. I was told another story of four men who started to walk np the beach from Cape Florida to Sb Angnstine. They managed to get across New Inlet upon an improvised raft, bnt on ar riving at Lake Worth Inlet they attempted to swim across. Throe of them were gobbled np by sharks. The fourth reached the shore, and travelled on to Jnpiter Light, where be told of the fate of hia comrades. These reports cer tainly show that many of the sharks are man- eaters. The most of them are of the shovel- nosed variety. As they ere more lively end voracious in the summer than in winter, it is probable that they wonld attack a man in Jnly or Angu.it when they would not tonoh him in December or January. THE BEST nSHEEMZN W IXOBIDA are the pelicans and ospreys. A pelican con sumes about a peck cf fish a day. They floek abont the inlets and straits by thousands. Bop- posing there arc 2.000,000 pelicans in Florida— and there aro certainly more than that—they wonld eat 500,000 bushels of fish each day, or 182,200,000 bushels per year. The millions upon millions of white and bine cranes, herons, cnrlews, gulls, fhh-bawks, kingfishers, and other wator fowl devour thousands of bushels of fish every twenty-four hoars. An experienced Cracker estimates that 700,000 bash els of fish a day aro required to feed the birds of Florida alone. This wonld make 222,250,000 bnsheis each year. Add to this the billions of fiih swal lowed by aharks, bass and others, and the stun total will reach nearly 2,000,000,000 bnahels of fiah destroyed by feathered and finny flihermen on the penininta in twelve months. At first glance these figures appear enormous, bnt let any man make his own estimate and carefully Agar© it np, and he will find them under instead of over. THE rniXCE OF FEATHEBED GLUTTONS. Tbo pelican is the prince of feathered glal- tons. I shot a dozen of them on the wing. Bomatimes the fiah wonld begin to tnmble ont of their gnllots before they reaehed the ground. In no case did I find less than four large fish in their baggy throats. The lower fish wonld be half digested. Their throttles are like mill hop pers. They fill tho poach nnder their bill with a peck of fish. The fish overflaw into their throats. As fast as one digests another drops into its place, and goes throngh tho same pro- oess. The bird is fat, logy, and very rank. It is fall of groBEO. Handle a dead one in the snn or beforo a camp fire and tho greaso will drop from tho body. They weigh from twelve to twenty poneds. Dr. Fox shot a white one measuring nine feet »rd one inch from tip to tip and weighing 191 pounds. While sitting upon the wator they hold their heads well np, with their enoimona bills and ponehes flittened npon their brcnsia. They look as grave as oonntry judges so grave that bnt few persons can see them withont lsnghing ontrigh t. They fly in Indiana file, somebm ?s in strings half smile long. When tho leader flaps his wings the second ono fol lows suit, and so on down the line; and when the leader soars No 2 does the same, and is fol lowed by the others. Eich bird seems to be nnder strict discipline, and when gathered in sreat flocks npon the beaoh they resemble an army mu..i ay t»u»ii~- The ulnmaaa of tho gray pelican is much admired. Every feath- is shaded from a black to a beautiful silver gray. The nndar part of the neck reiembles yellow Batin, and the back part is a glossy brown velvet THE HIOHWAI BOBBIES OF THX AIB. It is amusing to watch an osprey while he is fiihing. An oagte is soaring throngh the air five hnndred feet above him. The oeprey is sailing over the water, carefully eyeing its aur- faon. Suddenly ho steadies himself against the wind, rolliDg his wings as thongh endeavoring to back water. Then he drops throngh the air like a plummet. There is a splftBb in the waves, and the osprey rises with a fish in his talons. Meanwhile the esgle is drawing near. As the osprey ascends in tho air, the eagle utters a threatening cry and swoops upon him. Unable to escape, the hawk finally drops the fiah. Be- foro it strikes the water the eagle darts down ward like a flash of lightning and catohes it, whilo the osprey flies to a hammock, where hia comrades gather round and sympathise with him. TUX DAXCTNO ITSH. A man of-war hawk or frigate pelican is a pe culiar fisherman. He descends npon his prey liko a ballet from a height of three hundred feet. He seizes the fiih in his beak, and soars aloft in to the sky. His mates gather abont him, while the Incky fisherman tosses his tidbit into the air so as to catch it by the head, and awallowit, as it oomes down. His throat is so smiU that be can get it in his stomach in no other way. There is a wild swoop, and another hawk seizes tho fish, and a B ain it is tossed in the air, and tossed np indefinitely until one of the birds is so fortunate as to catch it headfirst, when it die- appears. I have seen a doxen frigate pelioans koep a fish danoing in the air fifteen minutes before it was swallowed. Tho most wonderful fisherman on the Indian river is a native named Stewsrt. He seems to be amphibious. It is no uncommon thing for him to jump into the water and run down a fat mullet, catching It in his band. The Fateh family have two dogs bo starved that I have seen Them dash into a school of mallet and re- appoar with fish in their months. THE THANTOH DBUMF1SH. Mr. Abbey of Abbey, Stnrdevent A Co., Fol- ton street, New York, occasionally visits New Smyrna, and spends a few winter weeks mTUh- inaf His favorite amusement la spearing drum- fish. One afternoon he left the wharf in aboat with Mr. Lowd, the proprietor of the hoteL For an hour they had fair lack, and then there was a la.ll. Mr. Abbey began to grow drowsy. Lowd was rowing the boat. Suddenly an enor- mons drum was heard at the bow. ’Stop, stop,” ahouted the fisherman, raising his spear. There’s one right there ahetd of u*. Wait until his tail comes above water. Lowd steadied the boat, and Abbey waited for the fish, bnt none came in sight The boat moved on. In a few moments a fierce drumming arose at it stern. TO #5000. fore leaving Smyrna, Mr. Lawrence. York. (Abe Lawrence'* nncle) had given me small clothes line over 300 feet long, with teavv ainker, and a hook nearly five inches lo-e" backed by an enormous shank. Every night at dark I'was in tho habit cf tying the more line to the limb of a cabbage tree overhanging the camp fire. Afterward 1 would bait the hook with half a mnllet. tike the sinker ent in a ik.ff the fnll length of tho line, and drop It over- U SeoOtSs Deposits, diaoormts Paper, bnya and board.

The car ®Ud, or “ ere valve®,” is a favorite game flsh. It® Lead and fins are tipped with gold. The former is shaped like the prow of an old fa®hion®d Erie cansd boat. The fish is Very narrow at the roo*. of the tail, which ha® a gol den tinge. The lady fish is deli cite and silvei?. When struck by the hook they spring from the water with more energy than a black baa®. Their fla vor is delicious. The jew-flsh grows to an enormous siz3, oc casionally reaching five hundred pound® in weight. It ia cf a a greenish color, covered with irregular dark spot*, and is very game. Why it i® called a jew-fish is one of those things that no fellow ean find out. The aaw-flsh becomes very largs, and takes the hook like an old stager. A flat-bone, Bet with teeth on either edge, jat3 from its cose, giving the fish its name. It is good eating and game. The ribbon^fish haa a snout like a pike. It ix x thin fiih, strung out like a ribbon, from which it takes iU nama. ^It is regarded as t delicacy. Stingareea are plentiful, and of an enormous wzs. Some of them weigh two hundred and fifty pounds. The sting, is in their taiL It i3 x bone several iuchss in length, bearded in a hundred plaoes like the shank of a hook. The fish can throw it through a man's boot, or even throngh his body. It is a dangerous fish, and has been known to eause death in a few hours. The natives use the stingaree’a tail for tooth* picks. They declare that it prevents toothache. The pompicean is the pride of Southern epi cures. It is caught in a net and has a round body, shining like a plate of Eilver. It3 bones are soft, and it has x flavor superior to that of a shud. - r JL FISH THAT EATS GRXF3. The men&tee, or sea cow, is a huge amphibi ous animal. It is found in the St. Lucie river. It haa ahead like that of a sea-lion,.and it looks like a gigantic seal. It feeds upon the rank grass growing npon the marshea of the St. !Liucie. The men&tee has nbs as thick us a man’® arm. Last year Dolph Sheldon and Frank Sams caught one alive near the month of the rfrer, intending to send it North for exhibi tion. The animal weighed over 1,500 pounds. Unfortunately it was tied to the boat so firmly that the rope cut into ltd flesh, nnd it died be fore the party reached the head of Indian river. The pcrgioa devoured the Cody. Florida is the only place in which the men&tee is fcuud on the North American continent. Formerly it aa abnndant, but it ia now nearly extinct, and becomes more scaioe every year. Its meat is greatly relished, and tastes like tho best Fallon Market bsef. The whipparee resembles the eticgarec. Its mouth is filled with two ivory rock3, and be tween them it cracks the clams on which it feeds. It reaches an enormous size. The porcupine-fish has & round body filled with quills. It is small, and good for nothing. The cow-fish is a curious fiih. It has the bead of & pig, with two horns above the ears. On the bottom it is aa smooth as a flat iron. The m&jarra ia the shape of a aheopshead, and has a lustroas brown f-hading above the tail. It ia as handsome as an angel fish, and ia good eating. The Bpade fish also looks like a sheepshead, but it has no bard fins. NO TliOUT IN rLOBIDA. All the books on.Florida declare that the rivers are filled with trout. This is notruo. There ia not a fresh-water trout in tho State. What they call trout are a kind of black bass, trapped on a troll. They have huge mouths, and are caught by soores in the St. John river. A lady hooked one at Ealerprise weighing ten pounds and & half. Ooaapared with sea Hitting, however, fishing on the St. John is boyish sport. * ”Stop, stop,” cried Abbey, “he's behind ua,” sain balancing the spear. “Steady again balancing the spear. “Steady now. Wait until his tail comes above the water. Lowd waited, bnt no tail appeared, and there was no sign of any drnmfish. A third time the boat swept on. Quick a vigorous thumping was again heard in front. “S*op, stop, steady,” screamed the Fulton street merchant. “Here is straight ahead of ns again.” The spear was brandished once ANCHOR LINE STEAMERS.
