Henry Boyle, an Englishman, in This Free ' America. QUEER VICTORIA AT HOME. Trench Congress in Session A Paris Se-nsationOther Special News. New Yokk, April 24 Special.; Tho Hon. Henry Boyle, of London, has arrived here in search of his eldest brother Lord Boyle, whoso presence is now much desired by his relatives in Kngland and Ireland. Lord Boyle disappeared from Canada two years ago, but no special effort was made until now to learn his where-abouts. As he succeeded to the title of vast estates in Ireland by tho death of his father tho Earl of Shannon, his im-mediate relatives arc much concerned about learning whether ho is Head or not. About seven years ugo Lord Boyle having resigned his commission in ihe rifle brigade, left Kngland and emigrated to Canada where ho was sub-sequently joined by his brother Henry They both embarked in ranching oper-ation, but their veuturo proving unprofitable, Henry returned to Kng- - land. Lord Boyle, however, decided to remain in Canada, but nothing has been heard of him for two years. He was at that time seen near ono of the mining camps, lie served one term in the Canadian parliament before his dis-appearance and consequently ho was well known in that country. As no trace of him can be found 'there, al-though a large reward has been offered for information concerning him, it is believed he came to this country, and not prospering as he desired, concluded not to disclose his identity to any one. His brother thinks he may bo discov-ered in some miuing camp in Colorado, and ho will journey there with that ob-ject in view without delay. Lord Shan-non had arranged to sell a largo por-tion of his estates in Ireland to his ten-ants under Lord Ashbourne's act, and it is thought his .wishes in this respect will be carried out by his heir. A GEXIINE MERMAID. Captured by W. W. Htantnn, Thrca Mile OT the Florida Coast.; Jacksonville, Fla . April St. W. W.

This strauge creature is about six feet long, pure white and scaleless. The head and face are won-derfully human in shape and feature. The shoulders are well outlined and very much resemble thoe of a woman, ami the bosom is well defined and shows considerable development, while the hips nnd abdomen continue tho human appearance. There are four flippers, two of which are placed at the lower termination of the body, and give ono the impression, that uature made nn ef-fort to supply the straiigo creature with lower limbs. Mr. Stanton con-fesses to quite a fright on lirsl sight of his queer prize, which, on being drawn on board, gave utterance to a low moaning cry, which might easily have been mistaken for the sobbing nf a baby. It is extremely unfortunate that Mr.'stanton did not succeed in keeping the creature alive, which ho thinks might have been done, an the strange object lived t wo days after being takeii. The schooner has' been thronged all day by curious visitors who express much wonder aud astonishment nl tho strango object. Mr. Stanton, after visiting several ports and showing his queer creature, will donate it to the Smithsonian institute. The. tish or mermaid is in a largo glass jar in alcohol.
