Capt Jiiii Manby’s new apparatus, for accomp* 
lis atigthis most iniportant object, has many 
pecu.iac advantages. Its lightness affords an 
ease o*' conveyance to places inaccessible to 
an heavy ordnance, and a power or applying 
relief in some situations where the former 
mortar would be useless. Yet the Suft’ollc 
H umane Society by no means recommend the 
adoption of the piescnt plan, and the rejec¬ 
tion oi tne former ; but warmly urges the ap¬ 
plication ,of both, as the circumstances of the 
coast or tide, or vessel, may require. The 
Suftblk liumane Society feels peculiar plea- 
suiCin a testing the utility of Captain hiaT- 
by’s chemiCal preparation for firing an ord¬ 
nance. The quickness of lighting, the cer¬ 
tainty of its remaining unextinguished when 
exposed either to wind or rain, must render 
the preparat on of extreme benefit, especial¬ 
ly when a minute’s delay might be fatal to 
the lives of tte sufferers. The Suffolk Hu¬ 
mane ^lociety cannot refrain, from the suc¬ 
cess they have witnesssd at Pakefield and 
Ccrtoa, earnestly hoping that every part of 
the coast will soon be furnished with the 
means rer facilitating a communication be- 
tv^een the shore and thestianded vessel, and 
affording the most effectual aid in cases of 
shipwreck..” 
A curious fish was lately caught off the 
Yarmouth coast. It was about four feet and 
a half long, and weighed eighty pounds j had 
a head like a toad, with very small eyes j its 
upper fins like wingsj broad body, and ta¬ 
pering tail, near two leet long. The colour 
of tiie back of this fish was dusky, the belly 
white, the skin smooth : it resembled the 
iophius fishing-frog, or toad-fish.
