Either the nimber of ienl engaged in the business, we irnag ie, must be over-estimated, or the number of fish caught under-estimated. It requires two men to mnanna boat, which would give '-300 boats for 600 men: 2,000 fi' li'a :day would give to each jman a fraction over three as his share. We presumue few are fishinag who do not catch a good many more than that number. We saw a boat load, the product ofthe previous night, coni':isting of 61; salmon, waeighied ves. te:-day mt o'ning. They averagedi a traction over 17 lbs., anl gave 33 as lI.e nuiber caught !y cact ruian, in stead of thre.as cstigonated above. Say that the 000 fishermen on an average, 200 boats a night; the ia Vel age nuinIBer caught by each boat put at 20, and the stirn total would be 4,000 fish, :etewal of 2,000 as estimated. Our iipression is that the latter eomcs near, r the mark theu the ihrtier, as a gooad aiatiy of the fi'herien send their fish direacty to San Francisco; others take theurn to difleretit points for sail. i.ig.

Induding those en gagai in salting, cafe.bng and selling, probably the fish bulsliness furnishes Cllaloyil eit for 1,000nen.

It was givenl out at thi tine that the lady was stirering uti der a mental alienation, but th true history of the affidir has since leak ed out, and is not without interest.

The ladies immediate ly near her were shocked, the ge tlemen stared at her in astonaishiment and finally the baroness became si hilarious in her speech and so c. travagant inl her action, that it wa deemked prudent to rid the ball-room o her presence. To smooth the nat ter over, it was given ont that sh was suffering under a meital alienation a.nd that she was suabject to su e iits, but the real truth wvas that shi had been imbhibimng loehrt freely ofcapgn t h tpl ddsupper, atnd t hatt thei wine brouigh he-: ilut, in her true charneter, ile ease was duly investigated by th lynix-ey ed and inidefhtigabile p'olie( when'i it was auscertaine'd that she wva thec wvife of a hurrier liviing near Park' and thlat in oruder to enable heo to carry out heri assumied title . a baroness, she hats been for som iame p'ast leaudinag a maost disreputa le lhfe."
