HERRING TRADE—WILY, JENS 10.—We have
had 486 barrels of Lewis herrings landed here, since
our last report, making a total of 1,459 barrels im-
ported this season. A few prime herrings were caught
on the hooks, early in the week. They were all used
for bait. Several unsuccessful attempts have been
made since. An effort will be made with nets
very soon. We learn that what are called the
" shore dues' trans " were sold at Fraserburgh, last
week, at 19s. per cran. By the Fraserburgh
Harbour Act, each boat pays, in name of shore dues, for
the season, the first cran of herrings brought ashore by
them, bringing no inconsiderable amount of revenue
to the harbour. The purchaser, this year, is Mr. David
Milne, fishcurer. Latest accounts from Stettin are a
shade more favourable. The potato blight bad not
made its apppearanoe, which had a natural tendency to
raise prices. No decided re-action will, however, take
place, until the season is so far advanced
_as to enable
parties to know definitely the result of that crop.
Everywhere, along the east coast, preparations for the
approaching fishing are being made, both by fishourers
and fishermen. From present appearances, the number
of boats fishing at the various stations will be under
that
of previous years.—John O'Groat Journal.
Dr.
Gutzlaff records a remarkable effect of the
British invasion of China. The natives expected that
their idols would repel the invaders, but seeing them
unable to make the least resistance, even to save them-
selves from the hands of an excited soldiery, veneration
gave way to contempt. The idols having proved their
' worthlessness, the Chinese refuse to worship them, and
the shrines and the priests are deserted.
