A WIIALE ON AN OYSTER BED. Thoe Largest Eish that Was Evor Killed in fZaritnn Baye Trom the New York Sun, May 20. The fishing eonson has openod eatlier than usunl this year at South Amboy, and {he piscato- 1y inhabitauts are congraulating thomselves on 80 suspicions o commoncomont ns tho eapture of an enormous whale. Last Friday morning John Spain saw, n short distance from the shore, what appeared to him to bo » sloop bottom upward. The water was not moro than five feot decp, and tho supposed boat had grouuded on an oyster-bed. While Spain was spoculating ns to the probablo fato of tho crew, the object bogan to move percoptibly, and sove- Tl jots of water woro thrown into tho air. The astonished observer had never scon o levintlau, but he bad read about thow in connection with Joual, and seen piesurcs of thew Loaning lurga boats forty feet into tho air with elash of their tails, and be beltoved the creaturo bufore him to be very liko a whale. Job Tushed to tho honso of Cant. Roborts and surprised that marinor beyond megsure by ase suring him that thero was o whelo in tho ogntor bed. A singlo glance at the dark, glistening mass, rising four foet out of the wator, sssured the experienced Captain_ that the ercuture way indoed & lovinthan of larre dimeusions, hard sground. Arming himself with a gun, o butehat, and a considorable quantity of powder and ball, he jumped into a boat und start2d upon one of the moust remarkablo fishing oxeurions within the range of bis exporionco. Arrived within u fow yards of the monstor he toolk a steady mm and planted a ball under its fin, ko bullot sank ‘beneath the skin and a fet of blood spurtod out, but for all the effect produced upon the whalo the ontorprising Cuptuin might a8 well huyo fired into tho trunk of a trep. Howeyer, lo tricd uecond shot und & third, and coutinuod to prac- tico npon the creature until its ides looked like a target after o German shooling festival, o thinks he would finally bave slnin it Liad his sm- munitionaud dayhight held out, butin thesbrenco of any more lead he seized his trusty hatchot and prepared to renew tho contest at close qunrters, Aguin and again, that murderous blude sank doep into the side of the monster, and every ntroke was followed by a responsive spasm, It wos warm work, and’ though tie Captain hos fow equals with oyater-tongs, after ho Liad cut & hole i the creature's sido abontjfousteen inches loug by oight wide and a foot deap ho ws glud to rest, ‘W'hie whale was apparoutly as fresh as ever, and showed no signs of going into his tiunl tlurry, though he ovineed an oveorwholmiug do- sive to get off the oystor-bod. Iesuwhile Bloodgood, having hoard of the evant, hind uot been dle. 1o hiad gono to Snme uol Noy, the villuge blacksmith, and mads hin Dlow up his fire and manufacture = stout iron spear ton foct in langlh. With this formidable Wroapon hot from the forge, ho was now seon ap- roaching the shore secompanied by Ney. Cupt, Rocerts saw them coming, and renowed his ongot uporr the whalo, onlergiue the holo sovoral inchos, but failing to kill tho creature. The blackstuish ovinead an amount of cool discorn- neut iu th'e faco of danger not unworthy of his I'vench namesnke of martial renown. Ho directed Bhoodgrood to spear the whalo in the Lole made by tho Captain's batchot. The hint was acted wpan, and 4 feot of iron sank into the whale's llubbor. Tho_ struggle was not long in donbt aftor that. With thoe ekill of Arctic voyngoers, the toroemen kept ous of reach of the monstor in his dying * flurry," and in ten minutes he was-» dead whale, Not all the row- boats in South Avaboy could have towad him off the oyaler-bed, bt & stenintug fastencd abawuor to bim and drag'ged him ashore, where tha united efforts of the inhabitsuts hauled him out of the water, Thore wero divers conflicting theorios ns to the cauee of his inlsud excursion, Many old fishormen, who by virtna of their calling ‘wero supposed to know sll about whules, though noue of them had ever seon oue, cherishod a plensant fictiou that the crestaro, boeing ossen- tintly o denizon of the briuy ocean, getting acci- dentally into tho river, had becomo blinded and .bewildored with the unwented cffects of tho Iresh water, and moved_on blindly to fte fate without knowing whero it was golngs to, Others nssigned sicknesy au the couse of its coming into the rivor, saying that thouo ereatures siwuyn went into phallow ator when thoy felt thom- selvos dying, end this theory was somowhat ‘borue ont by the fuct that the creature's snont was covored with parssites, whioh are smd to nm%h to whales when they ure on tho poiat of death. 1u coming up tho river, the whale must have kopt in & comparatively natrow chuunel, the water of tho Ruritan boing very rhallow at kowe distance from the bauks, ~Had it been high tide, thers ina strony; probubility Lhat it woull have passod up to Now Bruuswicl, o distenco of sov- outeon miles, T'ho whale was found to mansurs 484 feot in lougth, 0 foot through tho body, und 4 feot in circumforence.
