OTSTIN Burt.—There has been • good deal
of talk lately shoat the diesovery of • 'saw "
bed off Portland. Mara square mama war sat ogint
ea the *steel of the bed, which rumour @pada,
magnified to atty. The bed, so it was said, had bees
toned by • Oolshwder sumach, as esthete her crew, and
there was talk of • °aspen, to work aim new wares
a wealth. Ills very ala, that the crew bare seat
may tons of oysten ; but who was lo give awn, or the
" orrinpany' a monopoly alibi mashie eliellileh. It was
whispered that only age man ham the exact situates
of the bed, sad les was eumalag enough, whoa waterbed,
to give the other lishennes the slip, sad he off to lb,
Wm* Bay moan, la the lanky ship. But this did not
last long; several more Oolohester oyster dredgers
Game down end the trot boat was °lonely watelted, and
part at least of the secret dissovored. 'Pb. ground
which la covered with oysters is said to be "between
10 and 20 miles off Portland" la the Wait Bay, and
others who have gone oil to the leanly have been re-
warded with mush snare. Weymouth men, experts
in fishing matters, ay that Ills not a new bed at all;
but only an old one re disoovered. But even aooording
to their statement, it is as good as new, for It was
worked out many years ago, and abandoned, and now
ills found that the oysters have grown tumorous there
again. Alteedy titers are signs of it meeting the fate it
did before, for the yield is lessecinr, and it probably
will soon be worked out, to be abandonei, and than
left again to replenish itself, and be " re-diseovered"to
future years. It seems a pity that our Backwater is
not used as a breeding ground for this valuable and
delicious shell lob; MAMMA in lush an undertaking
would be • triumphant proof of the purity of it, waters,
and would pie d an appreedable °attribution to the pro-
perty of the Corporation, so say some. We belays
that an ertlfioial oyster bad in it. Fleet has been tried
for some time, and proved asomessful, and good *dries
as to the practicability of a similar one in the Baok•
water ought to be obtained, and the experiment tried,

members of the Connell who said II would be a great
athautago to the trade of the town to hold the market
there, would ask the traoisemen and innkeepers in the
