Excerpt from The American Angler's Guide, or Complete Fisher's Manual, for the United States, Vol. 3: Containing the Opinions and Practices of Experienced Anglers of Both Hemispheres; Containing a More Particular Description of Southern and Western Fishes, and Other Matter of Interest to the Angler, Together With a Copious Index But amidst all these researches, but little, comparatively speaking, has been done in the Natural History of Fishes. The boundless ocean, with its vast waters, and numberless tributaries, remains unexplored: and the fact, that scientific inquirers of all ages, have neglected to penetrate so far into the philosophy of this branch of Nature's productiom as into many other departments of her wonderful and deep-hidden mysteries, is certainly a source both of surprise and regret.
