OUR FISHERMEN. One has to consid-
er the statistics, to comprehend how
precarious and dangerous our coast FISH
cry is. The Gloucester AorerfiSe7' in
forms us that 20 vessels belonging to
that port, with 40 lives, have been lost
during the present season, against 13
vessels and 95 lives last year. The value
of the craft lost in 1871 is stated at
500, 600 with about $3.50 insurance.
In the Georges fishery, 10 vessels and
% lives have been lost II vessels and
% lives in the Bank fishery /; l vessel
and II lives in the Greenland halibut
fishery, 2 vessels and life in the shore
Winter fishery | vessel in the herr ing
fishery, and l vessel in the coasting
trade. OF the 140 men lost IS were
known to be married, leaving AZ widows
and 9S fatherless children. These sad
details involving great moral and mate
rial suffering, if they had come to us al
together as single calamity, would
have excited great public atten-
ton bat they are none the less terrible
because the report of them reached us at
intervals
