SALMON FISHINGS.—For the last ten days the
salmon fishings in the North have not been so productive as
at the same period of last year. The fishermen ascribe this
to the snow-water that continues pouring into our rivers,
and which the proud salmon have no relish to taste;
consequently prefer sojourning for a short time in the
mighty ocean. A gentleman in London, who wrote
on the 15th instant, says that the same cause as the
above has hitherto prevented any supply from the Dutch
rivers, and up to that date only fourteen salmon arrived from
that quarter. The following is the number of salmon taken
upon our principal northern stations, since the Ist instant:
Lochness and its tributaries, from 50 to 60 ; the Beauly, 7 ;
the Conon cruive fishings, 7 ; Chanonly Point and adjacent
stations, 110 ; the Shin, 2—being almost close since the com-
mencement. Very little as yet has been done on the Find-
horn and Spey. However, the fishermen are still sanguine
of a good fishing throughout the rest of the season.—Ross-
shire Advertiser.
THE POWDER MAGAZINE AT KETHAM —A report
is in very current circulation, that the Ordnance authorities
purpose removing the powder from the magazines at Key-
ham Point, to what are Galled the temporary depots, within
the lines. We should be sorry to create any unnecessary
alarm, but the subject is of so -much importance to the inha-
bitants, that it would be a great dereliction of duty on our
part if we did not inform them generally of the fact, that
the necessary steps may be taken to prevent, if possible, the
exposure of their lives and property to a casualty much to be
dreaded. The effect of the explosion at Kinterbury must be
fresh in the recollection of most of our readers. On this oc-
casion only forty barrels exploded, while we are informed
there are no fewer than 18,000 barrels in the stores at Key-
bam,with the estimated contents of I,6oo,ooolbs.—Devonpor:
Telegraph.
SHORT-TIME IN THE FACTORIES OF GLASGOW.—
We are informed that during the present week a number of
the power-loom factory employers of Glasgow and suburbs
have put their workmen upon short time—some of them
working only during day-light. This, we believe, is occa-
sioned by dullness of trade and is a matter of no little con-
cern to those engaged in this description of business. We
are also authorised to state that manufacturing business gene-
rally in Glasgow is in a more depressed state than it has been
for several years previous.—Glasgow Post.
THERMOGENIC DRAWIN G.—A scientific friend has
favoured us with the following ingenious mode of trans-
ferring the forms of natural objects or the patterns on ribbons
to paper:—Saturate common writing paper with porter,
coffee mixed with sugar and cream, or a solution of achill.
then place the objects whose form is to be transferred on the
prepared paper and expose them to the action of the sun's
rays or those of a common fire. Various other solntions
may be used for the same purpose, as bichromate of potash,
yellow chromate of potash, &c. When figured satin ribbons
are saturated with such solutions, and exposed to the sun's
ray's, the raised patterns are given in beautiful relief in a
lighter tint of the same colour as the ground. The prin•
ciple is capable of a very extended application.—Liverpool
Journal.
