the fale of potatoes. 
On the 27th ult. a very fingular, and, we 
believe, hitherto undefcribed fith was caught 
in the river Merfey, in a net, by Thomas 
Whittle: when firft taken it was of fuch 
uncommon brilliancy as almoft to dazzle the 
figh:; its colour confifted of the moft fplen- 
did mixture of blue, green, yellow, and 
orange, blended together in a manner 
that produced awonderful effect. It belonged 
to the clafs of fith call chetodons, and al- 
though Linnzus and other naturalifts have 
defcribed fixty-three fpecies, yet this feems 
to have efcaped their obfervation. They are 
natives of the Indian and American feas; 
and this appears to be the firft ever caught 
in Europe. It was fent to the Liverpool 
Mufeum, where it is preferved fo as to look 
as when alive.  Lancaffer Gaxette, April, 7.
