Caught in a Water Spcus.

A Trinidad (W. L) paper relates the following:
The schooner President Jeremie. lying at this
port. got under weigh for Vincent. but had onl 2
got as far as opposite the Five Islands, "a few
miles from the anchorage ground of Port Spain. J
when an accident of the most unusual and ter
rifying nature occurred to her. The master Of
the vessel had observed some threatening wealth
er coming on, and had prudently taken in all
sail, when he suddenly found his vessel cnvel-
oped in the vortex of what is commonly known
as water spout--of water, however, he saw
none but of the wind. or whirlwind, more than,
in all probability, be would like to see again.
or seeing, be lucky enough to survive to tell
the tale
The little vessel as he describes it, was carri-
ca down into kind of well or vortex, and there
thrown on her beams end. She recovered her
position, was again thrown down in the same
way, recovered herself, q third time prostrated.
In the course of these three upsets, seven of the
eleven persons on board were thrown off the
deck into the water; the master himself was
thrown overheard a second time, after once get
ting on board out of the vortex
Finally the whir(wind passed over, and Of the
seven overheard, five succeeded in getting on
board again, but two, unfortunately were drown
ed-they were both sailors of the vessel one of
thc TWO men drowned was an elderly man a
passenger who was supporting himself on a hen
coop he had been lucky enough to find floating
about, ,gallantly gave it up to him. seeing his
age and nfirmity, and swan off to water cask
hoatinS at great distance but the poor man
could not keep his hold of the coop, and was
drowned. The other man who persisted was
not seen from the moment he fell from the deck
into the sea.
The deck cargo fell, or was swept overheard
the long boat was partially stove Inland the
mainsail, although it had been previously low
cred, was much rent. The vessel returned to
town to repair and report damage.
A brlgantine coming into the harbor. very
narrowly escaped being involved in the same
catastrophe.

Catching Mackercl.

The late fishery excitement, if it brings about
nothing more important, has at least contributed
something to our piscatory literature. The press,
for some weeks past, has had a decidedly fshy
flavor, and some really valuable and interesting
information has been chowdered up into news
paper letters and articles The following account
of the method of catching mackerel, which we
find in one of these fishery letters, will probably
be new to many of our readers:
"The method of taking the mackerel is very
simple. The vessel is shoved to- and men are
arranged on the 'windward' side as many as can
conveniently stand from bow to stern. Each man
is provided with four lines, only two can be used
in fass fishing. On each line is attached thehook
which is sunk into an oblong bit of lead called a
Gig A barrel is placed behind each man, into
which the fish are snapped as caught, the jaw
tearing out as easily as though made of paper.
Owing to this tenderness of the jaw, the fish must
be hauled very carefully, though with great ra-
pidity One man stands 'amidships,' throwing
the bait which has been carefully ground to keep
the fish about the vessel, while the hooks are
baited with any tough substance, either pork rind
a bit of liver, or piece of the mackerel itself.
When the fish bite rapidly, no sport is more ex-
citing-a dozen men will often catch from thirty
to fifty barrels in an hour. When caught they
are split, gibbed scraped, washedin three waters,
and then salted-the whole being done with aston
ishinr celerity">
