FISHERMEN LOST.

A Cape Cod paper gives some statistics of
the loss of life and Of vessels by fishermen
from Gloucester, Mass, during the past forty
two and half years, 1t says: There have
been lost from Gloucester since $780, ,2jl
lives and PSI vessels-valued at nearly ST.
500, OO0-in the fishing and coasting business,
averaging upward OF twenty nine lives and six
vessels yearly. The value Of the vessels lost
is Sl,493,222; their insurance 1922, 1875,
mostly in the local offices. Ninety-two of
these vessels were lost in the Georges fishery,
a little over one-third of the whole number;
ffty-six in the Bay of st. Lawrence mackerel
fishery. twenty-nine in the shore mackerel
fishery. twenty in the shore cod fishery, TWEEN
,y three in the Grand and Western Bank fish
cry, eighteen in the Newfoundla nd herring
fishery, two in the Grand Menan herring FISH
cry, one in the Greenland halibut fishery.
thirty -three.in the coasting trade, six burnt
by the rebel pirate Tacony, and one piot-boal
lost in Gloucester harbor. A there is no
record of the number of widows and orphans
previous to 1858, it is impossible to get at the
correct number, but it is probable they would
average about the same proportion as those Of
the last fourteen years--the number of married
men being about one-t third of the whole num-
Der lost, and averaging two children to a man.
Inns would give, in round numbers, 400
WIDOWS and 800 fstherless children left desti-
tute by the disasters Of the past forty two
years, an average Of ten widows and twenty
children yearly, which is not large estimate
