A party of amateur sportsmen of Elk
ton went to North East. on Thursday night
OF last week, and having made the neces-
sary arrangement before hand. started down
the river shortly after midnight in the neat
:
to cast anchor when they reached a locality
frequented by the water fowl. But they,
unfortunately, encountered a squat near
the mouth of the North East river. which
broke their main boom and disabled their
boat so much that. after being nearly blown
ashore at Bulls Mountain, they were forced
To anchor and await the dawniag of the
day. after which the fury of the storm some
what abated and they were able to repair
damages and hoist sail; but the wind still
blowing a gale from the northwest, made
II impossible to reach the ducking grounds
on the Susquehanua flats, on the western
side of the bay. and the expedition for this
reason was 4 failure.
MIR. Hushlett. one of the Maryland
Fish Commissioners, and WIN. Hamlin. an
a;tache of the Fish Commission, brought
$1,000 young California salmon, recently
matched at the lake in Druid Hill Park,
Baltimore, to Elkton, on Friday last, and
turned them loose in the waters of the two
Elks some miles north of this place. They
were transported in seven cans, five of
which were the patent copper cans made
expressly for the purpose. The fish were
about an inch long and swan about in the
cans in very sprightly manner. not hav-
ing suffered any detriment from their long
ride in the cars. Mr.. Hamlin informed us
that it was not necessary to feed these
youngsters. because nature very kindly
furnished each of them with an appendage
which he called an umbilical sack, which
contained nutriment enough to supply their
wants till they Were forty days old, after
which they were able to obtain their own
subsistence. The eggs from which these
fish were matched were obtained in Califor
MIA. \ like number Of these young fish
will be put into the waters Of the North
q. East creeks to-day.
