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. - , - A Rare Chance. - You can bcyclothing at prices - that will astonish you..

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. NAVAL RESERVES.
