MUsKRAT AND SKUNK SKINs.-The March
flood soaked out regiments Of skunks and
muskrats along the banks of the Connecticut,
and enterprising boys with some older hunts
uen were enabled to drive a brisk business in
securing the skins of the fugitives. The re-
turns show that several hundred muskrats
with goodly number of skunks were thus
victimized along the river banks in this city
and vicinity, during the recent high water.
Their skins have been sold at prices from TWEEN
ty to fifty cents each, perfumery included, and
have gone to New York for shipment to Eu-
rope, to be deodorized and returned in the
shape of graceful robes and exquisite gloves.
Imagine the transfer Of such odorous mer-
chandse from the muddy burrows of the Con-
necticut river banks, via Paris and st. Peters
burg to the shop windows of Main street, or to
the rich wardrobes of lady promenaders. Oh!
