169. STATISTICS OF THE SEA FISHERIES EXCLUSIVE OF THE OYSTER INTERESTS. 



In the following statements the statistics of all of the fresh-water fisheries are neglected, and 

 the figures relate only to the salt-water fisheries, exclusive of the oyster industry. The statements 

 have been carefully compiled from notes made during interviews with many of the more intelligent 

 fishermen and dealers in the various localities, and the figures are thought to be sufficiently accu- 

 rate for all purposes for which they are intended. We are under obligations to the fish dealers of 

 "Wilmington, Beaufort, and New Berne for information and assistance which have made it possible 

 to give to the public a general account of the fisheries of each district.
