Catoh of Fish and Theib Values. — We are enabled to 

 represent the gross weight of catches of halibut, with their 

 net value, made by certain vessels from Gloucester. Of 

 course such lucky ventures are exceptional. The figures we 

 give may, however, present some idea of the value of our 

 fisheries. The catches were made by schooners from about 

 the beginning of February to the close of November : Gross 

 weight, 66B.168 pounds, net value, $27,470.53 ; gross weight, 

 651,731 pounds, net value, $21,785.99 ; gross weight, 260,316, 

 pounds, net value, $18,186.48; gross weight, 418,111 pounds, 

 net value, $19,088.82; gross weight, 399,214 pounds, net 

 value, •$ 18,702.88; gross weight, 624,090 pounds, net value, 

 $24,124.16. The largest catch was in 1870, whea a vessel in 

 ten trips, occupying about one year's time, landed 1,000,000 

 pounds of fish. 



The Fishing Fleet. — The fish receipts at this port the 

 past week have been moderate for the season, the whole 

 number of fishing arrivals being 59, as follows : 13 from the 

 Banks, 4 with 618,0001bs. codfish and 9 with 180,000)bs. hali- 

 but , 31 from Georges, with 430,000ib.s. codfish ; 2 from Bay 

 St. Lawrence, with 480bbls. mackerel; una 13 from trips lo 

 the Eastern Shore, with 3,870bbls. mackereL— Oape Ami, Ad- 

 vertiser, Oct. 11. 



New York— New York, Oct. 9.— The bass are earning, 

 also squid. I send a record of those caught here this week : 



John H. Rogers, Oct. 3. one. IHlbs.; 0th, two. 11', and 121bs. s 

 8tb, one, 61bs. Thos. Tuppler, Oct. 8, two, 41bs. each. John 

 Hayes, Oct. 3, seven, 141bs., 8th, two, Bibs. Mr. 'V 

 five, 71bs.; 5th, one, 741bs. The prospect for fine fishing is 

 very good. E, Browkh. 



Virginia — Leesburg Academy, Oct. 11. — The bass fisher- 

 men have been taking good strings of fish with minnow, and 

 Maj. Ferguson took with fly some twelve or sixteen pounds 

 in an hour the other evoning on the river. T. W. 



Report of the Jfrt in Paris on Fish and Fish Pro- 

 ducts. — We take the following from the Deuwlie Fixcfterci 

 Zcilung of September 17. The report of the Fish Section of 

 the International Exposition of Paris, of 1878. may be con- 

 densed as follows : The members of the class 72, meat and 

 fish, with vegetable and fruit 73, which were united, had as 

 judges the following persons : M. Peligot, M. Mereier, M. 

 Omer Decugis, M. Pellier, M. Pepper, Mr. Collins Levy, Mr. 

 Mathieu, Herr H. Friele, with M. Beboiirs Giuzelin and M. 

 Chevet. The French associates were added, but all acted to- 

 gether for the completion of the work. Herr F. M. Wallam 

 subsequently joined the jury. The jury held some session on 

 July 10, under the charge of the Minister of Trade, but com- 

 menced on the 16th of June and continued its work until the 

 6th of August before the definite rendering of prizes. The 

 total number of exhibitors was 1,479, of which a few hundred 

 were thrown out on account of improper classification. " On 

 the whole," says Herr Friele, "the exhibit was not so com- 

 plete or instructive as it might have been. At the begining of 

 our labors, lasting each day for three to four hours', it was 

 seen that many of the exhibits were spoiled. With reference 

 to the manufacture of the finer fish, the exhibits shown by 

 France were distinguished from all other countries by their 

 excellence. This was especially marked in all preparations 

 made with oil. Norway was conspicuous with her fish food 

 marineed, and similarly prepared. North American and 

 Canadian salmon and lobster were remarkable for cheapness 

 In the coarser fish food, Norway was unapproachable with its 

 stock fish and klip fish. But competition in ordinary staple 

 fish was not great, for, with the exception of fish from Canada 

 and Scotland, no other fish was placed on exhibition. In salt 

 herring Russia exhibited certain products which were the best, 

 although Holland and Scotland had almost no representation. 

 The Russian herring came from Astrachan, and, with the 

 Norwegian herring, were distinguishable for excellent method 

 of preparation. Almost 7,000,000 of these herring were taken 

 in the Caspian. In regard to salmon, smoked or in oil, es- 

 pecially the Northern products, such as herring, Norway and 

 Sweden were on a par. Highly salted, smoked and spiced 

 fish, such as are used in Russia and in the North of Europe, 

 were not fully appreciated in France. Of other fishery pro- 

 ducts, such as oil, guano, etc., comparatively little was ex- 

 hibited." Herr Friele, in concluding his remarks, states 

 " that the fishery exhibit in Paris left a great deal to be de- 

 sired, and this opinion Herr Wallam also corroborates."

ARCHERY". 



Editos Fohest and Stbeam : 



Y r our correspondent of the "Oritani Archers" gives me 

 some sly raps over the knuckles of my bow hand for 

 some things I have said in my correspondence for your 

 paper about bows aud archery. Now I think you will not 

 throw the charge of egotism at me when I say that I am confi- 

 dent that possibly with the exception of Maurice Thompson, 

 I have used bows more and can shoot them better than any 

 American. Your correspondent who sells the Aldred bows, 

 recommends them as being very durable, and sayB that only
