A delicate Stomach.

--A shark, recently captured near Port Jackson, N. S. W., carried the following curious miscellany in his capacious stomach: Half a ham, several legs of mutton, hindquarter of a pig, head and forelegs of a bull dog, with a rope round his neck, a quantity of horse flesh, a piece of sacking, and a ship's scraper. No wonder that twelve gallons of oil were obtained from his liver!
