Note 1.— Of the quantity cured gutted, 1,782 barrels were cured at aea, 7 vessels of 431 tons, and 



employing- 57 men, having been fitted out for that purpose. 

 Note 2.— The returns of herrings cured are this year given for the first time as " bungpacked," i.e., 



as finally ready for export. In previous reports they have been given as " seasticks," i.e., before 



the herrings have " pined " or settled down in the barrels. The corresponding equivalents in 



the " seastick " state will be found under Appendix D.— No. II.
