FISHING.

CHARLESTowN, Md, June Is.
FISHING.
Gilling for shad wound up the 10th
instant. Quite number of our OILERS
had wound up week or SO previous. in
consequence of the scarcity of shad. Al
though the spring has been an unusually
rough one, causing the fishermen to lose
considerable of their limited time. We
think, to take it in general, that better
tishings have been made than for several
years back. This was not attributable
to the large catch. for We do not think as
many shad We're caught by many of the
fishermen as on last spring, but the
prices obtained were better in the latter
part of April and May than were ever
procured at the same seasons of the year,
and it was we'll for the fishermen that
such was the case, in consequence of the
advance in provisions and the wages of
hands.

CANNING HOUSE.

Messrs. Evans & Cooling. our canning
house firm, have erected main buildin.
sixty by thirty-two feet, with annexes
for the canning of tomatoes, peaches,
etc. They have also on the ground, ready
to be put in position, a large boiler and
machinery necessary for carrying on the
business extensively. We understand
that about ninety acres of tomatoes are
under cultivation for the use of the above
firm. The firm expects to employ about
seventy hands during the month of
August and September and would prefer
employing home labor if possible, but
fear that sufficient help cannot be pro-
cured here and that they will be COM
pclled to go the city for help, especially
for tomato peelerS, as this kind Of work
is generally done by women and children.
While there is nothing degrading about
earning an honest penny in that way, as
the work is not laborious, it is thought
that the prejudice Of to-day is SO strong
among females against going out to work
that it will hold them back from taking
advantage Of the opportunity offered for
making few dollars to better provide
themselves for the coming winter. Mr..
George 5. Evans, of the firm. is from
Hartford county and has had considerable
experience in the business, and we think
will make an agreeable and useful citi-
zen. Mr.. Is. Cooling, of the firm, is SO
we'll known i'll the county that comment
is unnecessary.

MORE. LIGHT .

The NJ. E. church of this place, which
has been so poorly lighted in the past.
has received new light through the liber-
atty of Mr.. William Corinth, of Phila-
delphia. Pa. who is a wealthy manufac-
turer of steel in that city. \ short time
ago, Mr.. Corinth gave 4 dinner at the
Seneca Point Club House, near this place,
to number of his friends, among whom
were the members of the above club.
Mr.. and Mrs. William Atkinson, who are
members of the church mentioned and
also the very popular managers of the
beautiful and commodious Seneca Point
Club property, asked some of the club
to solicit contribution from Mr.. Corinth
and his friends towards purchasing a
chandelier for the church. A short time
afterwards handsome chandelier and
two pulpit lamps were delivered at the
church as a donation from Mr.. Corinth
to the Charleston NJ. f. church. The
lamps have been put in position in the
church, are quite decorative in appear
ance and dispense light to all portions
of the room. The congregation are all
highly pleased with the donation : and,
indeed, the pastor of the church-Rev.
j. w. Hammersly-wass SO much pleased
with the present the first evening of its
usefulness, that before closing the SER
vices he offered resolutions of thanks to
Mr.. and Mrs. Atkinson, and through
them to the members of the club, who
have been quite liberal to the church
here, and through the club to Mr..
Corinth. The resolutions We're unani-
mously adopted by rising vote. We
understand the trustees of the church in
tend framing suitable resolutions and
prenting them to Mr.. Corinth.
In connection with the above men,
toned improvement, we noticed the
audience room had been overhauled,
walls cleaned and calcimined. new win
dow shades, new carpet. marble top ia

materially to the appearance of the room.
For this improvement we are indebted to
the proceeds of the oyster supper and the
entertainment given by the public school
of this place, under the charge of Miss
Martha Riddle, during the past winter.
FESTIVAL.
The ladies Of the church are busy
making the necessary arrangements for

TOLEDO, November 13.-The most exten.
sivc street mob which has been seen here
since tue railroad riots Of 1877 gathered
this evening, the occasion being an attempt
ed lecture ofa man who announced him
self as s"Rev. O'Conuer, ex.priest," from FL
paso, III. The subject Of his lecture was,
"Why | becanlea II priest, and why ceused
TO be one" and the sub heads on lis bill
which promised startling revelations. and
the priestiy robes in which he walked the
streets for IL day or two previous were well
calculated to raise some excitement. 10.
day word was sent TO the cliief
OF police from different parts-of the
city that there would be trouble il that
lecture went on, and accordingly the owner
OF the bali was requested to keep it closed,
which he did. Before the time for the
lecture to commence Summit street for two
or three blocks was solid mass OF excited
men and boys, many Of them making loud
threats. O'Connor came up near the eli
trance to the hall, but ives advised by citi-
zens and the police 10 yet out Of the way.
This he was ut first unwilling to do; it was
not long, however, until the mob began
hustling him about and also getting their
es:g;;s into position. The ex.priest was then
slad toget protection Of The police, who,
with the greatest difficulty. worked him
through ,he sursing crowd. On the way
down several fierce attacks were warded
Oft only by the free use Of the billies. At
the station Rev. 0'Connor was registered
"ior sale keeping" and provided with
quarters for the night.
