THE Season baying arriv e d wh en supp li es o f Brandy are required for the above preparations, it is right that the superior merits of BETTS'S PATENT BRANDY should be borne in mind ; as, from its extreme purity and perfect freedom from those acids which exist in French Brandies, it is, in a peculiar degree, adapted to those purposes. It is also strongly re commended by the Faculty, and particularly at this season, as a substitute for Beer or other fermentable liquors, when diluted with water in the proportion of one to six or seven ; in which state the price but little exceeds that of Malt Liquor.

The pinnace's crew consisted of—Edward Stone, boat swain (Sp.) ; Jacob Sch o fi e ld, carpenter (Sp.) ; Jacob Allen, cook (Sd.) ; Robert Hodge, seaman (S.) ; John Copeland, ditto (Sd.) ; John Frazer, boy (D.) ; Charles_ Wilson, ditto (D). We had not landed long before the natives began to show themselves in large bodies, I should think about one hundred strong ; but, finding that we were alarmed, they returned to their hiding-places, and a few of them were only to be seen. We then made signs to them for something to eat, upon which they showed some raw kan garoo, and offered it to us if we would go for it, which some of our crew did, and we found they wanted our clothes, by their taking their caps and comforters in ex change for the meat. They now began to go further into the bush, and tried to entice some of us after them, but having previously seen them so numerous, and most of them with long spears and clubs, we thought it Lest to stay close toge ther, and not follow them ; but after we had stopped with them for a few days we thought of making our escape, which was only to be done .at night when they were feast ing or dancing. It was agreed upon that we should start that night ; but, however, before that time they came upon us and stripped us of all our clothes, and one having re fused to give his up, was immediately speared in a most brutal. manner. Now, seeing their usage, and what we might hourly expect, made us the more anxious to get away from them. We therefore agreed upon the following even- I jug, but when the time came there were only nine of us to gb. We left them about ten p.m., -sand ran and walked till daylight, when we were afraid of being seen by the natives; so, therefore, we lay concealed until dark, after which we again came from our hiding place. Thinking that the na tives would be in the boat we walked down on the beach, and sometimes in the surf, so that they might not trace our foot steps, not knowing they could go by scent. About midnight we saw them close after us, and about 70 strong. We imme diately tried to hide, but were surprised to find a shower of spears to come from the same direction. IVe were then taken, and seven of our number already speared, four of whom they immediately put to death in the most horrid and barbarous manner. The rest of us they marched back from whence we started, and the follow ing day they again speared the captain, this now making the third time—the first time was for the chronome ter ; the second when we were retaken ; and the third for not fetching them large wood when they wanted him. W e were now only six in number, and all separated with different tribes. Mr. Brown was the next sufferer. In the morning previous he was again brought to the tribe I was stopping with, and they were more than usually kind to him, which he remarked to me. They having caught some fish that morning, offered him part of one ; but as he had to go and fetch the wood and water for them he said he would let his remain till he returned. I now advised him to eat it first, before he went, seeing they were dis pleased at his putting it away ; but, however, he would not cat it then. I now having finished mine we set off for the wood, and after we had returned we found two of the red tribe with the tribe we were staying with. This being un usual I knew not what to think ; but, however, they took the deceased by the hand and made signs to him to go with them for something to eat. Upon my offering to go with them they mado me return back, and about two hours afterwards they came and took me in the same way and by the same signs, and after going about a mile horror-struck was I to find him tied to a tree hand and foot, and a slow fire made at his feet, but much more so to see one of the men on a stake close by, and writhing in the greatest agony, their last words being to let their mothers know of their untimely end. But I can safely swear that our suf ferings are not to be imagined but alone to be described. Henri "J. E. BAXTER." The Loan MAYOR asked whether Mrs. Frazer was treated with cruelty by the savages ? Baxter replied that she was compelled to carry wood and light fires for the savages, and there appeared to be no dif ference in their treatment of the survivors ; but the unfor tunate captives were separated from each other and set at work for different tribes. The natives took great delight in witnessing the agony of their victims ; the moment one of them would lie down to take a little rest they would thrust a lighted torch under him, and when the sufferer would start up and cry out, they expressed the highest degree of plea sui e. They were fond, too, of overturning a white man into t Ise lake, and enjoyed his struggles in drowning. The Loan MAyou—How many days ►ere you without tasting food ?_ Baxter—VVe were seven days without bit or sup, except bits of square lead in our mouths to relieve us with moisture. The LORD MAYOR—You have read Mrs. Frazer's account in the newspapers. That is not worse than was the fact ? Baxter---NO description could come up to it at all. N o n e of us knew the minute we were to be staked and consumed over a slow fire. It was horrid beyond anything what we suffered. The LORD MAYOR—Mrs. Owen, of Fulham, the mother of Mr. Owen, one of the Commissary-Generals of Sydney, has been here with me, and has mentioned that her son had written to her on the subject, stating that Mrs. Fra zer and the poor crew had undergone dreadful things, and ;hat. he had rendered them all the assistance he could. Baxter declared that no human being could have acted with greater kindness than Mr. Commissary Owen had shown towards the unfortunate crew. Mrs. Frazer—That gentleman will have the blessing of God wherever he goes. But for the great kindness I met with from him I never could have got over my sufferings. The clothes I have got on are Mrs. Owen's. The LORD MAvoit—How many have been saved of the whole crew. Baxter—Six, including Mrs. Frazer ; but she and I are the only persons of the number who are in this country, The LORD MAYOR—Several humane persons whose hearts were touched with the accounts of Mrs. Frazer's sufferings, have sent to me contributions for her benefit. I knew that such would be the case, for anything so fear ful I never heard since I was born. HA TTON-GARDEN. Yesterday Anne Haines, a distressed looking woman, with a child in her arms, was brought before Mr. ROGERS, in the custody of Francis, 72 E division, charged with being found in the streets destitute, without the means of procuring subsistence. - Francis, having been sworn, stated that yesterday morn ing, at an early hour, he was going his rounds through Tot tenham-court-road, when he found the prisoner sitting on the step of a door in great distress, and crying with her child in her arms. On questioning her, she said that she had no place to go to. She had wandered about the streets for the last three days and nights, not having it in her power to procure food or lodging, and being fatigued and exhausted, she sat upon the step of a door for the sake of a little rest, when the witness took her into custody. Mr. ROGERS asked her where she had last slept in a bed ? Prisoner—ln the neighbourhood of Vanillin. Mr. ROGERS—To what parish do you belong ? Pri soner—To St. Pancras. I was in the workhouse with my child, but the confinement not agreeing with its health, it was taken ill, and with the permission of the surgeon I was allowed to leave, when I took a lodging at Vauxhall ; but not being able to pay the rent, I was turned out, and I have been in the streets for the last three nights in great distress. Mr. ROGERS—Yo u must apply to the parish of Lam beth, and be passed to St. Pancras. Nothing else can be done for you. You ought to have remained in the work house. The pri soner w i t h her child then left the office in a de jected state. UNION-HALL. Yesterday UNION Yesterday Richard Farebrother, a young man, was brought before' M r . W e d gwoo d, charged with having married Francis Blow, hi s f ormer w if e being still alive. From the complainant's statement, who is double the age of the prisoner, it appeared that her late husband kept a broker's shop in Clement's-lane, Strand, where lie realized a small property, which he left to , his widow (the complainant) at his decease. She also came into the pos session of a stock of goods in the brokery line, and not con sidering herself competent to manage the business, she made up her mind to get another helpmate, and having waited a decent time after the interment of her husband (Mr. Bl ow ) s h e accepted the offer of the pr i soner, describ e d hi mself a widower, of an industrious turn, and of temperate habits. Th e fi rs t mon th, h owever , after their marriage, Mr. Farebrother began to show himself in his true colours. Instead of attending to the busine s s, he consumed the greater part of his time in the aletlnouse, and in order to liquidate the expenses of this. indul gence he sold out some of her property in the Firads, and soon ran through the whole of it. When this mo neT was gone he began to dispose of the brokery goods, and did not stop in his career of extravagance until he exhavAted the stock of the shop, consisting of upwards of six waggon loads of brokery articles, which he sold, at an immense loss, to the Jews in Petticoat-lane. When he found that he had ruined the poor woman's property he then absentrsd himself from the house, and in the course of her inquiries $ to learn what had become of him she ascertained that he had an other wife living, and having met him that mornin g in the Waterloo -road she gars him into custody, The c F?lplain• ( ~ ' . . , . ... c ~.._••.:•.7.'...,•• , .. • _zi.;, , sa, , •,&•-•-•,..1,vt --..."' -,-.,-. , rier ) ,•=i4 --.. 5ati,..., :; , 0-.• ) -. 0,1(1P 10 .1k mk c e j r .... .

The MAGISTRATE asked the prisoner what he I ad to say in answer to the charge ?—The prisoner replied that he had another wife before he married his last wife ; but that in consequence of his believing that she was dead or had married another man, he accordingly agreed to marry Mrs. Blow. Mr. WEDGWOOD inquired when he saw her last ? The prisoner had not seen her for the last four years. Mr. WEDGWOOD then asked the prisoner where he had seen his wife on the last occasion, and he answered that she was then living in Chelsea, but she had since " evapo rated" from that neighbourhood. - Mr. WEDGWOOD should remand the prisoner until Sa turday. WORSHIP -STREET. Christie, a beadle of St, Matthew, Bethnal-green, brought up a man of the name of CadAr, and placed him at the bar before Mr. CODD, charged with having deserted his wife and family. The wife had not seen him since March last. He left her with three children. She had since that time been upon the parish for relief, and had 3s. a week. Christie found the prisoner at Macclesfield, ih full em ployment. The prisoner, in default of paying the r arochial support of his wife, was sentenced to a month's labour on the treadmill. y Gardner and John Savile, two men well known .o police officers of the establishment as old smugglers of spirits and tobacco, were brought up charged on an excise information with unshipping and having in their possession a quantity of foreign manufactured tobacco, which had Lot paid duty, by which they had become liable to pay a penalty of 1001. each to the Queen. The prisoners, who told the al story of the tobacco having been given to them by strangers , were convi c t e d i n the full penalty of 100/. e ac h, and ordered to be imprisoned till the fine was paid. ,-; HOP INTELLIGENCE. In the Maidstone district the bines are unequal. Sonic have been terribly shattered by the late gale, and others, in sheltered positions, were never more promising, there is, however, little alteration since our last, but if any it is in favour of improvement. The hops in the vicinity of Canterbury arc greatly in jured by the late windy weather, and many grounds will fall short of a crop. Some grounds come out middling, whilst others hang behind. The late gale has blown away one third of the hops in the Benenden district, and destroyed the beauty of the gardens by stripping off all the lateral branches. The loss of part of the crop could not happen at a better time ; and there is also this advantage, that the wind blew away every vestige of disease, and the remaining crop has every appear ance of being the best growth that has been known for many years. The hops are now all out, and fast filling with pollen, but if the planters do not obtain the prices of last October, their losses will be of a very serious nature. We expect to begin picking by the Ist of September. The hops in Yalding district are in flourishing condition, and the crop is expected to be very good. The hops in Ticehurst and neighbouring parishes have made great improvement during the past week, and are generally in full hop, yet much slighter than they were last year; the opinion on the duty being from 180,000/. to 190,000/. The Farnham crop is good, and we expect to commence picking in a fortnight. Notwithstanding the late strong winds, the best soils in the parishes of Benenden, Rolvenden, Sandhurst, Hawk hurst, and Cranbrook, have evidently improved ; but on the stiff and poor soils the bins is slight, and little improve ment has been made. The late warm weather has done a great deal of good, and the hines are fast coming out in hop. The gardens generally in Sussex are fast improving, and the duty is laid at 53,0001. The heat of the past week is doing everything that could be expected for that part of the plantation (by far the most considerable) which has escaped the early disasters o f. blight, and the subsequent ravages of the gale which oc curred about three weeks hack. On the other hand, the districts which were injured in the way above adverted to are either turtling black altogether, or exhibiting a propor tion of dead shoots, which greatly reduce the estimate of probable production. Perhaps some of the worst speci mens of injured bine are to be found in the body grounds about Maidstone, but so partial is the damage, that while a few almost entire parishes might he selected whose crop has been diminished by two-thirds or three-fourths of their early promise, others quite adjacent afford the most healthy and luxuriant prospect imaginable. On the whole, the ef fect of the last week's fine weather has not advanced the estimate of the crop in the opinion of the trade materially, the duty having been betted a week back at 180,000/. to 185,000/., and not being now quoted above 190,000/. THE HARVEST. The first sample of new barley was exhibited in our market on Saturday last, grown by Mr. J. H. Sutton, of Oakbank, near Scotby, and was sold at 15s. per bushel.— Carlisle Journal. DERBYSIIIRE.—Tho harvest has already commenced in the neighbourhood of Chesterfield, and if the weather does but continue favourable, in a few days the fields will wear a busy appearance. The crops never looked more full of promise. CARLISLE, Aua. p.—The weather during the week has been extremely fine, and from all parts we hear the most cheering accounts of the prospect of the harvest. Here and there the reapers have already got to work, and should the weather continue fine, the harvest will soon be general. Potatoes are now selling in our market at 2d. per stone—, a most seasonable relief to the poor, who have suffered much lately from the high price of this valuable vegetable. BARLEY.—WC observe harvest commenced on Tuesday in a field near the new bridge of Don, belonging to Mr. James Nicol. This is the first grain crop from the 'field in question. The soil was originally partly clay and partly moss, which were thoroughly amalgamated, and having been well manured the crop has been thus early and abundant. Barley harvest commenced in Rathen, on Monday morning, in a small patch attached to the school-house. This, though the first cut down, will be speedily followed by others in the parish, where the crops in general were never known to look better. Mr. Sutherland, bookseller hero, commenced barley harvest yesterday on a field near the Firhill-well. The crop is rich and luxuriant, and the grain of the very finest quality.—Aberdeen Herold. On the 16th current a small field of barley was cut down, quite ripe, at Mr. Clapperton's; Spylaw-bank, near Colinton. A most luxuriant field of pease was cut down, on Wed nesday last, on Tranent-muir, in the immediate vicinity of King's-law, by Mr. Alexander Smith, being the first of the harvest in that quarter. Harvest may be said to have commenced in the neigh bourhood of Inverness. On Friday last a field of barley was cut down in the glebe of the Rev. Mr. Kennedy, at Red castle ; and next day another field of the same, grain, con sisting of seven acres, was cut at Seabank, ne= ar Nairn. Our correspondent at Nairn says, the latter wa:4... well filled and in excellent condition, and is the first cut. down in this neigh bourhood." At Millburn, in the vicinity of this town, a field of barley, of considerable exten.c and good quality, be longing to Macdonald and Co., distillers, was begun yester day, and two others at the sP.mu place are ready for the sickle. In the neighbourhoe,a of Forres barley shearing is also in progress.—inverur ss Courier. On 'Monday last a fie:td of barley in the parish of Cupar, belonging tri the Mies Carswell, was cut down, the first we have i neard of ;11 this neighbourhood this season.—rife Heraki. T:neweather has of late been remarkably favourable for rrpening the fruits of the soil, and everywhere crops of all descriptions are looking heathy and luxuriant. 'Wheat ' will yield an excellent return both in grain and straw, being in some places very heavy, and oats will generally prove an average crop. The green crops never looked bettor at this season. The farmers are therefore i n high spirits and in some situations harvest has already commenced. Oa se veral farms in this neighbourhood patches of barley, wheat, and oats have been cut down, and if the present fine wea ther continues, harvest will be general in eight days, and the fields well cleared for the sportsman by the first of Sep tember. We understand that Mr. Andrew Wright, tenant of the farms of Holmpark and Downans in the parish of Ballantrae, began his general harvest on Wednesday the 16th instant on a field of fine oats, and will continue every work-day until finished. This most industrious and inde fatigable tenant has almost always been the first in the pa rish that entered the harvest-field.—,ty r Advertiser. The weather during the last fortnight has been excel lent, and the crops have i n consequence b een r i pen i ng ra pidly. The country has everywhere a most b, autiful ap pearance, and the vegetable treasures with which it is co- ‘ r .V.v r e er // / 7 vered are mely rich and luxuriant. The harvest has already commenced in many places in England, and in some in Scotland, under the most favourable circumstances, and will very soon be general. In our own immediate neighbour hood the sickle was in operation as early as the middle of last week, a field of barley having been cut down ht New port, and from the shade which the crops have ❑ow gene rally assumed, we should think that harvest will go actively forward, if the season continue auspicious. —Dundee Ad vert:ter. t"2" g MIDDLESEX QUARTER SESSIONS. These Sessions commenced yesterday before Mr. Ser geant ADAMS and a full bench of magistrates. On the list of the Grand Jury being called over, a great number claimed to be exempt from serving, on the ground of being above 70 years of age—others that they belonged to the learned professions, &c. _ _ A MEDICAL CERTIFICATE.—One of the petty Jury sent a letter, requesting the Court would excuse his absence, and enclosing what he termed a medical certificate of his in ability to attend, and which the Chairman read aloud, to the infinite amusement of the Court :—" I hereby certify that Mr. is unable to leave his home, as he !about; under a severe bilious attack in one of his toes." The bearer of the above curious certificate having sworn that the person named in it was so lame that he could not leave his room, the bilious gentleman was excused. THE QUEEN v. MORGAN AND OTHERS.--;—Mr. Morgan applied to the Court to order bench warrants to issue im mediately against the defendants in this case, the Grand Jury having found a true bill against them for keeping a gaming -house in Air-street, Piccadilly. Ths CHAIRMAN never would again grant applications of this kind unless the prosecutor made oath that he knew where the defendants resided, and that he had just reason for supposing that the warrants could and would be exe auted immediat ly, and nulertook to return the warrants to the Court if he could not find the defendants, with affi davits stating the endeavours he had made to do so. He was determined that warrants of that Court should never again be held in terrorem over defendants in order to enable the prosecutors to extort money from them, threatening, in default of bein g able to get the money, t o execu t e th e warrants. He had been trying for the last eighteen months to put a stop to the system by which' bench warrants were obtained for other purposes than furthering the ends of justice, mad he did hope that his endeavours had not been altogether unsuccessful. Mr. Heaton was not prepared with the affidavit required by the Court. _ The CHAIRMAN—Then I will not grant your application POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. THE Loss OF THE " STIRLING CASTLE."—Yesterday John Baxter, the second officer of the brig the Stirling Castle, which was lost on the coral reefs in the voyage from Sydney to Singapore, appeared before the LORD MAYOR, in order to give a narrative of the hardships the unfortu nate crew had undergone. Mrs. Frazer, who on Friday last detailed the awful adventures of the wrecked crew at White Bay, was present, having been sent for by the Lora) MAYOR. The following is the written account of Baxter, who stated himself to be' the nephew of Captain Frazer, who was speared by the savages in the bush in White Bay, in the presence of his wife : " We left Sydney on the 15th May, 1836, with a fine and steady breeze, and so it continued until May 20, when the breeze began to freshen from the S.E., and continued so until the 21st, when, at twelve o'clock, we found ourselves in let. 21 5 S., and long. 155 12 E. by observation, and from forty-five to fifty miles of the Eli7a reef ; but at balf past nine the same evening we unfortunately struck, which we found to be through the rapid set of the current, which was running at least five knots an hour. During the time from noon till the evening we were running at the rate of four knots an hour, and at eight she was going seven and a half knots an hour, with the larboard, lower and top mast sails, and indeed all useful canvass. She had no sooner struck than all was confusion. We immediately tried to back her off, but finding our trial was in vain, we braced forward the yards, which we found had not the effect upon her, only heaving- her upon her broadside, when the sea hove her further upon the reef. We found it was in ♦ain to try to get her off, the sea now making a fair breach over her. We hefeupon sounded the pumps, and found them half full of water. The sea now having fu.l play upon the vessel, soon began to clear the decks of every thing moveable, likewise her continual thumping so tre mendously soon unshipped the rudder, and this was no sooner done than the following sea knocked the stern in and carried away the jolly.boat from the stern davits. We now mentioned to the captain respecting the mainmost, whichif it was cut away would ease the vessel, we thought. We no sooner proposed it than he ordered the carpenter to cut it away, 'lllicit was done by cutting the leeyard of the star board side, and the next surge she gave carried it over the larboard quarter, carrying with it the foretopmast, top gallant mast, and jib-booms, &c. This being done, we found that it eased the vessel a great deal. The %Ind now freshening, the sea began to be more violent, and she now lay as a break-water. We found it quit e im possible to laun c h th e b oats , b ut t h ought it most advi sable to go below, an d s t op t ill t h e d awn of day, if she - could but hold togeth er till t h at t i me. On the reef there is a rise and f a ll o f wa t er a b out 1 8 or 19 feet, andat low water we found h er l ay agroun d , and upon a coral reef. We had not been there more than three hours befor e we found her lay quite still, an d th e water leaving fast. Af ter seven hours of the greatest a nx i e t y , we saw the dawn of day appearing. The breeze had n ow l essene d and the sea became less. We now, finding the brig a total w rec k , b egan with the boats, which we fou n d were both stove, the long boat having lost her four foot, and otherways damaged, and the pinnance stove in her !aboard streak, and otherwise. W e turned them over, and patched them with lead, leather, and blankets as well as possible ; and after they were done we got them over the larboard gangway. It now being low water they no :owner were over than the long-boat was again stove, and again patched up as well us we could ; after which we found the wind freshening and the water flowin g . We thought it best to get what was most nece ssary into tl7e. boats, and seeing she could not hold together winch longer, we all got into the two boats, each boat taking their own way out of the surf. In the long boat there was the Captain, Mrs. Frazer, Mr. Brown (chief officer), and eight men ; and in the pinnace myself, the boatswain, and eight men. After we had cleared the surf we took the long boat in tow, she having the little provisions we had, and was in a sinking state ; and we thought it best to keep close together in case of an accident. After we had got the boat pro perly in tow we steered as nigh as I can recollect S.W., or from that to W.S.W., being the direct course for the land ; but at times we were obliged to keep before the wind ; and, after encountering a number of reefs, most of them coral reefs, we arrived on the fifth day at Cumberland Island, which we found uninhabited by any human being. There was a fine sandy beach for the boats ; but, not having had much rest in the boats, it was agreed upon that we should have a small portion of our provisions, and part of us to go to test, while the others kept watch for fear of any wild beast that might be up the island. After we had finished our scanty meal the watch was set, and a large fire kept up throughout the night. It was about twelve A.m. when we landed ; but the time it took to get the things out of the boats, to make the fire, and get our meat brought it was six o'clock in the morning. It was thought most advi sable to keep the boats afloat, it being under the lee of the island they were laying, .and, moreover, we did not know but what we might be assailed by the wild beasts. After a restless night we again began upon the boats ; but being poorly off for tools we were compelled to do the best we could. We rubbed the seams with soap and grease, with a little sand to bind it, and we found it a very good substitute for oakum. We now had the mainland in sight, and we found it to be Repulse Bay, and about ninety leagues from the island that we now inhabited. After we had repaired the boats, and got what water we could from the cavities of the rocks, we left on . the third day, at ten o'clock in the morning, with the inten tion of making for the mainland, but the wind suddenly changing we were obliged to keep the boats before the wind. Now, this being the 30th of May, 1836, we were at sea until the 26th of June, 1836, only having a few rock oysters and what water we could get from the cavities of the rock islands we came across, that was when wind and weather would permit ; but I can assure you that we were the last seven days without anything to eat or drink, but only bits of lead in our mouths to moisten them. After having staid at sea so long, and the pinnace having pre viously parted company, we thought it best either to draw lots or run the risk of beaching, the last of which was agreed upon, and we ran her ashore about four leagues to the southward of Sandy Cape, where the natives were nu merous. But shortly after the boats left Cumberland Is land I was taken ill and obliged to give the charge of the pinnace to the boatswain, who no sooner got her in his possession than he ran away from us. When the boats parted there were in the long boat the following names. 1 have marked those who escaped with their lives after all Air miseries with an S ; those who were speared with Sp. ; ~hose who were burned with a B ; those who were drowned .vith a D, and those who were starved to death with Sd The long-boat's crew consisted of twelve :—Captain Frazer (Sp.) ; Mrs. Frazer, his wife (S.) ; Mr. Brown, first officer (B.) ; Mr. Baxter, second officer (S.) ; Joseph Corralis, steward (S.) ; Robert Dargi, seaman (S.) ; R. Howland, ditto (Sd.) ; Michael Doyle, ditto (D.) ; Henry Yuilden do. (Sp.) ; William Elliott, ditto (D). ; Michael Denny, ditto (B.) ; Robert Carey, boy (S). 7 / THE HERRING FISHERY. Aberdeen has already exceeded half an al erage fishing, and the best part of the season is yet to come. This week the boats fell in with a large shoal of herrings accompanied by whales and porpoises, about four miles north-east of the harbour, and the quality being excellent, there is good reason to expect a large take during the next week. The heaviest draught yet brought in, was on Wednesday, when one boat delivered fifty-four trans, or about sixty barrels. Another boat had thirty-six that morning, but several of those who went to the usual fishing ground were clean. Not a single barrel of spent fish has yet been brought into Aberdeen this year, and the broke fish have been so few as not to be worth mentioning. The fishery has set in all over the coast, but although the markets have fallen in consequence, it is yet impos sible to say what may be the ultimate average of prices. If the fishery were to take off, the present return might be maintained ; if it continue to prosper they will fall consider ably. Next week will go far to settle the point ; and, if the present favourable weather continue, there ca❑ be no doubt of a heavy fishing on this aide the Frith. • London takes reds at 235. to 245., ifgood—white 20s. to 215., first quality, but few sought after. These are the gross sales, from which 4s. Gd. falls to be deducted for ship freight and agency. Ireland is nominally the same as our last quotation. Hamburg still bad. The Russian markets are nearly glutted from Norway, and were it not fOr the reduction of the duty, they would leave a very serious loss. For particulars of the fishery at the respective stations on both sides of the Frith, we refer our readers to the com munications below : PETERHEAD, AUG. 17.—Very few herrings were got in the end of last week ; but, since Monday, we have had a heavy fishing, and our average is now up to ninety-two Grans per boat. BANFF, AUG. 17.—The herring fishing on this part of the coast has not been so generally successful during the last week, though some good hauls have been got. Yes terday morning some of the Banff boats had upwards of twenty crans ; and at Maciluff and \Vhitehills, a few boats were equally well fished. The fish are still of excellent qua lity, and a good appearance on the coast ; but the clear moonlight nights are rather against the fisher men. 10ELLARDYKE, AUG. 12.—1 t is gratifying to be ens led to state, that there never was a better appearance of her ring fishing on the east of Fife coast than at present. Shoals of these fishes are seen extending four or live miles in length, and the quality is excellent. About forty boats are employed, and all are getting more or less. Some boats, yesterday, landed IS crans. The cadgers are ray ing 12s. and the curers about I is. per cran. It is a pity there are not more boats at hand, as the fishing is ex pected, from the state of the tide, to be very heavy next week. The fishing ground at pre sen t i s a b out h a l f a mile to the east war d ofCellardyk e , in fifteen or sixteen fathoms water, and about two miles from the shore. EAST INDIA SHIPPING.
