PEARL FISHING IN SCOTLANp.-The Elgin
Courant staes that many of the masons nav
vieS and others connected with the Strathsprv
railway works in Scotland, have been seized
with mania for pearl fishing. Tuckinc nm
their shirt sleeves and trowsers. they wade in
the Spey, but do not dive, pick up the shells
with their hands and throw them ashore Gen.
erally, they pick them up with n cane split ut
one end, and when they have collected some.
they open them with a stout knife finding the
pearl IN the softer part of the animal, but not
in every shell. The pearls are of different
sizes and colors, from the size Of small shot to
that of a good sized pea. The smaller and col.
ored ones are of little value the larger ones are
pearls of great price.
