THE SEA NEIU'ENT AOAIN.
Our old friend, the son serpent, nnkes his
appearance. This time it is inland in a peace
ful little lake near Cobourg, Ontario- Having
left tho broad highway of the ocean and taken
to moro circumscribed waters, the serpent will
no doubt, prove an easy capture, and the dense
mystery with which ho has been hitherto sur
rounded will be for once nnd ull dissipated.
The Cobourg (Ontario) Sentinel is the author
ity for this latest lisli or rather serpent story,
It thin tells how the monster was seen : Two
American gentlemen who aro enjoying the
lovely scenery of our lake, and the good sport
which it affords, were out yesterday on a fish
ing excursion, nnd when off White's Island,
they noticed an unusual commotion in tho
water, looking towards the north shore. Their
t-urmlses anil doubts were soon set at rest on
dUcovering the undulating portions, of tho body
of a monster which was making its way up the
lako towards Harwood, They at onco gave
chase, and were rapidly gaining on tho creat
ure, when their courage was tested by the mon
ster turning around and made directly for them
The view they had of it at this juncture was
tho best they obtained of it, and it is describeil
by them as having a head almost like that of a
liorte, but twice as long.eyes fierce and glariii
the color of the tkiud.irk grsy, and gullet pink,
and hating largo but apparently soft fins or
long hair along its back so far as rem. They
could not see more than about twenty feet of
the animal's body, hut think it imi.-t bo over
sixty feet long. They Fiiccceded in reaching
Idyl Wild, the monatcr having disappeared be
fore they got to the shore. This was about 1 1
o'clock in the morning. At 1 o'clock two ladies
and two gentlemen standing in the piza of the
Lako View Houso saw the monster pass the
north side of Tu-k Island, going on tho direc
tion of SKeke Island. With 11 good opera
gla-s they were enabled to notice moro accurate
ly the movements of the monster serpen1!, for
such now it appeared to be, nnd in a short time
it had passed behind Kpocke Island mid made
directly for tho mouth of the Otanabe, but ills
appeared suddenly when in that part of the
lake which is considered Ihu river channel, nnd
has not since been seen fiom here.
Captain
Ilrady got his yacht, the Slug, under weigh at
owce, and cruised around the island for fome-
timc, hut could discover nothing of tlio alarm
lug visitor. I will let you hear if nnythin
further Is seen or heard of his snakeehip,
This is what tho local paper savs, but a oyni
ral New York H'erfcf correspondent writing
from Coburg throws considerable doubt on tho
story, He says, alluding lo the article abivo
moled : This was on Saturday last. Nothing
further has been seen of his snakeship, but a
great deal has been heard of him. It appears
that nobody saw him but two American tour
ists, und the villagers have solved the vision
by this theory : A fortnight ago the Duhkln act
a measure prohibiting the sale of whisky Ii
quantities less than live gallons was passed In
this county, nnd although It will not go into
operutlon until March next, the tavern keepers
are already laying in live-gallon kegs, Ono of
these filled with old rye whUky, intended fur
consumption In the lumber as a "torpedo." be
cause shanty whisky, is believed to kill atjforty
rods, came into the swsession of the Horwood
hotel-keeper at whose house the two Americans
were staying, and on their starting for a two
days' camp out ho unwillingly put It Into their
canoe, This was on Friday, It Is presumed
that they got outside of (he whole live gallons,
partly because the bung-hole and oilier relics
of the keg have bi en found on Whit s Island
near the eastern end nf the lake, but chiefly, of
course, because they detected tho sea-serpent I
what was, nccordlng to the evidence of reliable
persons who had not been within range of tl
Infernal machine, nothing more "monstrous
than a floating boom of logs. This is univer
sally regarded as tho true explanation of tho
vision. The tourists are fiom Boston, and one
of them Is already willing to admit that It may
have been the keg.
