Some General Facts About Whales
Whales being the interesting topic now
we take from Chsmliers Encyclopedia
the followinfi points:
The Right whale, f the species to
which tbe last one taken at Morehead
belongs)sttains a length of sixty or seven
ty feet.
The head of whales occupies from a
third to a fourth of the whole length.
The mouth is fifteen or sixteen lee
long, but though tbe mouth is so large
the pullet is very narrow; it is said to be
only almut an inch and half in ilia neter
in very large whiles.
Suspended from tin- muf ol tin; inoiiih
is tho elastic subslunce known as whale
bone. It is in plates very close togcthei,
so that the mouth is filled with it, it
varies from a few inches up to (in r&re
instances) ten and twelve feet.
The vast mouth being opened, water is
taken in and the small animals which
enter with it arc retained for food, and
the water allowed to escape by the sides
of the mouth.
Tbe blubber is from a foot to two feet
in thickness, tbe whole mass in a large
whale sometimes weighing more than
thirty tons.
The usuarrate of progress in swim
ming is four or fire miles an hour. They
are capable however of svimming with
much greater rapidity.
Whales usually come up to breathe
every eight or ten minutes but are capa
ble of remaining under water a half hour
or more
They generally remain ou tbe surface
about two minutes during which time
time they blow eight or nine times and
then. descend.
The noise which they make in blowing
is very loud and tbe spout of water
ejected ascenis, several yards into tbe air.
appearing at a distance like puff of
smoke. , Tbe flapping of their tails in
sport in the water can be heard a distance
of two or three miles off. '
The tail is extremely powerful; a single
blow with it is sufficient to destroy a
large boat, or toss it and the crew high
in tbe air, so that the whale fishing is at
tended with no little danger. .
Congressman. Bland says the-ilonse
Committee on Coinage hsa not called on
Secretary Carlisle in regard to ithe ston
ing of the Seigniorage bill, though in
dividual members mar have done' so.
He says be baa not abandoned his fiaht
for free silver. The President and Sec
retary Carlisle have a Ions conference on
the Seigniorage bill. .The President re
quests tbe New York Chamber of Com
merce committee not to visit htm to arge
the veto or the bill. - ,

WHALIIQ OFF H0KZHKAD
Foar Sighted ana Two 11114 WlUta a
Week-Deacrlytieei of Catching.
Tbe great whale captnrsd at Caps
Lookout Tuesday, by the brave and
hardy Morehead fishermen attracted
crowds of visitors Irom Beaufort, More
head and vicinity. Many would have
gone down from New Berne had a train
been run to that a viiit to the interesting
scene could hive been made and tbe
visitor have gotten back borne the same
day. These great monsteit of the itep
never fail to attract attenii mi.
The first wild-, ii; season, tin
announced, ineasurio : over forty feet in
length, w is caulit la- .v k. Tuesday
threj more wr- I'n - v..nl sporting off
the sh'ri chase was given and there not
being men and boats enough to manage
r.ll, tbe largest one was selected, attacked,
killed and lrou.it to the ocean side ol
Sbackleford's banks wheie he is now be
ing cut up tnd tried into oil.
The whale gave his captors, a three
miles run before victory crowned their
efforts. When first struck he was about
fire miles out. and when about eiln
miles out, he succumbed to the Ihreo
harpoon wounds and eight bomb sh'its of
his assailants.
A whale's most vulnerable points are
under bis two immense fins, this, on one
side brings the weapon near his heart,
and on the other also touches a vital
spot.
When a wh&le is to be taken, the first
object to be attained is to make fast to
him, so til it he cannot escape. This is
done by having lines which can be let
out at great length attached to the bar
poons. After he is thus secured be is
hot with bombs which explode after
they are buried in his body.
Tbe boats used in tli chase are long,
swirt-moving ones built specially for tbe
business.
Five boats made the attack; tho victim
having been selected, a boat ranged close
alongside and the first harpoon was im
bedded deeply in bis flesh. Then down
the whale went winding off the line as he
went.
A whule, sound or wounded, cannot
long remain under the water. Not being
a true fish they have to come to the sur
face at short intervals to breathe. s the
watch was kept anil when the whale
made his appearance it did not take
long to plant another harpoon in him.
Again be sank and th n with a third lur
poon being made fast to him the firing
began. The three harpoons an. I eight
shots did the work.
Boats then towed him as close to the
shore as t'ie hugeness ol his body would
permit, the incoming of the tide I ii":H
aiding in this work.
In color he is velvety black on the
upper portions and white below.
Measurements showed his dimensions
to l.e ns follows:
Length, between S3 uid 00 led;
breadth, (Irom side to side) 20 feet;
width, (frotn back downwi-dj 13 fuet;
each fin is ten feet long and 6 feet wide;
the flukes of bis tail, 16 feet from one
tip to the other. The bone in his mouth
measures seven feet.
He will be cut up where he lies and
then tried out in huge kettles on the
shore.
It is estimate ! that the whale will
make 40 casks of oil and that his total
worth will be between $1,800 and 12,000
dollars. Twenty-five men are interested
in the returns.

Hie Powhatan Clay manufacturing Co.
Richmond, Va with works at Dorset, Vs
is doing a big thing now in working up
North Carolina clay into ornamental brick
window caps and sills, tsrra cotta, lum
ber virrifled paying brick, paving brick,
dan a tile, etc
The company some times since disco?
ered that there is an abundant deposit of
the finest Isort of clay, at Grover station
on tbe Air Line road, south of Charlotte,
and at one began negotiations with the
owners. The tile men bought twenty-
nine acres of clay arom Mr. Steven White
for $500, and they have built a ware
house 180x40 feet on the grounds.
lliey bave already carried 300 car
loads of clay from Grover to their works
at Dorset. They also pet clay from Mr.
Mattliew turner, who owns a linn ad
joining that of Mr. While. The clny is
shipped through Charlotte at the rate of
twenty car loads per week. The coin
pany says that it is the finest clay in the
South.
The above item is copied from t!ie
Charlotte News. It is only one instance
of many where North Carolinia's natural
resources are furnished to factories lie
yond her borders when the work could
lie done on tbe ground, home labor cm
ployed and home business lienefitted.
We suppose there is hurdly a city in
