Sacrel.ichfo SalooM Fisheries.

The fishing interest in the Sacrcrcn.
to at this point is increasing and ex-
panding with astonishing rapidity, from
year TO year, AID from month to
month. The water Of the River must
be alive with salmon, or such numbers
caught daily would sensibly reduce
their numbers. But experienced fish
crmcn inform us while the run lasts,
so countless is the number, that no
matter how many are employed in
the business, or how many are taken
daily, no diminution can be preserved
Even the ''luics" between this and the
Coast Rangc arc reported to be filed
with salmon. The run this year is
said to be greater than ever before
known, Mt This season. The cxtraordi-
nary run OF the present timo is only
expected to continue for some time like
three weeks. They seem to run in
immense schools, during which the
numbers taken are light, as compared
with the quantity taken during q time
like the present. No account is KEEP,
OF the number engaged in fishing, or of
the amount caught, and all statements
relative thereto are made from esti.
mates obtained from those who have
experience in the business, and proba-
bly, approximate correctness.
these estimates give the number of
men employed now in taking fish in
the the Sacremento at about 600; the nun.
Der OF fish taken daily on an average,
at 900; their average weight 7slbs.
