FISHING LANDINGS. The proprietors and

Potomac are now busily engaged in preparing
for an early commencement Of their operations.
Owing, however, to the immense outlay now
required to properly furnish a large fishing
shore, but comparatively few Of the many ez-
celent landings on the river will be fshed this
Spring, The owners Of the shores on both
sides Of the river, in consequence Of their great
losses by the war, are rendered utterly incapac-
itated for fishing this Spring: and there does
not seem any disposition on the part Of capital
lists from abroad to invest in toe exciting but
hazardous speculation.
