The HarbOr.

The delicious white fish have begun
their spring run, and our fishermen are
taking few by the way Of whetting our
appetites. Oar first was supplied on Tues
day last, and in the same ice box from
which it was taken, was one of unusual
proportions and weight. A 10 pound white
fish such as this was, is seldom seen.
The activity of the Harbor, in fitting
up vessels for service, is rather limited.
Only the Young and Wend the Wave
sail vessels, and the Metropolis steamer,
are showing signs Of life.
There is, however, some activity in the
moving of ore from the A. Y. & P.-docks.
They are not now covered with an almost
solid body of the products Of the various
mines of Superior, and those on the other
side of the Lake-ths domains of Queen
Vic, and the activity is rather accelerated
by the early opening of navigation, and
the near approach Of new supplies.
Cul. Towne, marine architect. has
launched his fairy little pleasure craft,
and she sets upon the squaous element
like duck, and is as graceful in her lines
as in her movements.
The small amount of vessel fitting,
shortens much of the labor usual at the
Harbor, this season Of the year, and our
new friend and patrOn-Frank Paine,
who bought the Watrous corner, is not
getting the encoursgemsnt.he would ike,
but energy, industry and ready adaptation
and skill to circumstances find their re-
ward.
Saloons at the Harbor, are net so plenti-
full as they have been; the antagonisms of
fire, and sturdy and uniform facing the
music by the Temperance union, are not
favorable conditions Of growth and pros
psrity.
A call upon friend Rice, after his nesr-
ly half years confinement, and much Of
that time, serious and alarming sickness,
or weak, wasting, and languishlng
suffering. found him, though still weak,
and considerably shattered, yet sitting up
and able to move about his room, and 60
