" To Commissioners of Customs."

Up to the 15th of September one hundred and
twenty hogsheads of pilchards had been caught at
Scilly, and there was every prospect of' a sitioq suc-
cessful season. The arrangements ►nude by Lieut.
TIIMACKSTON, R.N. the agent for the Connlithe
for the Relief of the Islanders, appear to be mog
excellent ; all the inhabitants ■re now employed,
and joy and comfort, the attendants on industry,
are now fast superseding 'fusery and want. If the
subscribers were aware of the advantages which
their liberality has afforded a very patient, deserving
class of persons, they would feel the purest sinus-
faction. Never was the benevolence of the English
nation so much required; never were its effects
so soon realised, and the foundation laid for so much
lasting good. It appears to the person who made
these remarks, and who has not the pleasure of any
acquaintance with Mr. THRBCI9T9N, that to his
great zeal and ability a very greir 'slate of This -suc-
cess is to be attoibuted : all parties unite in giving
him the utmost praise.
The Storm, VALENTINE, has arrived al Dundee
from Davis's Straits, with 18 fish, 230 tun'.
Spoke on the Ilth August the Bon eleeord, 13 fish;
