There came ashore at the bar of the
River Pucoti, in the town of Aquiraz,
Ci-ura, a fish of large dimension.-, of a
species and (pinlily entirely unknown
to tho inhabitants of. that locality.
The body is seventy nalmos, or fiftv
feet three inchca, long, and about ten
palmos, or seven feet two inches, in
diameter. The head is of an extraor
dinary size. The mouth, when shut,

this (the upper jaw) has no teeth, but
only some cavities in which the teeth
of the lower jaw rest, which are long
and pointed. The eyes appear small
in relation to the size of the fish, but
I hey measure two palmos, or seventeen
inches, iti diameter, and the distance
from one to the other is fourteen pal
mos, or ten feet. The lail is rounded
und in the 'onn lif a fan. Tho peopJc,
ever curious for new things, have bun
attracted to the place in considerable
numbers, who, with axes and large
knives, are getting a sort of thick lat

and shining. Of this fat they ure
