An irish Salmon LeHp.


 In wild weather, when the wind is from the Atlantic, gales blow straight up these glens, cutting the tops off the small waves as they come careering over the stones, and appar- ently doing their best to drive the water up stream again-a salmon leap Is q fine sight oI, suuli ts tIuy 6tat The water, no lohsof a series of insignificant trickles comes down in broad yellow gush, sending out great flakes of foam before it, to be carried back by the wind and lodged in creamy clots upon the trees and upon every scrap of herbage within reach. On such days the whole glen above the fall may often be seen through a sheet of finely divided spray, caught from the fall and flung backward by the wind. Standing above the leap and looking down, we may see the big salmon and white trout crowding in the pool below us, their heads held well up stream, despite the tug of the current in the opposite direction. Now and then one detaches himself from the rest, leaps upward, quivers moment in mid-air, and then, in nine cases out of ten, falls head long down into the pool again. The height to which both salmon and white trout will spring on these falls is astonishing leap of eight and ten feet being by no means unusu- al and, however often defeated, after few moments rest the same salmon may be seen returning again and again to the assauk. When thus intent upon business the fish seem to lose all their natural shyness, as If every faculty wag for the moment concen- trated wholly in the effort to reach the upper waters. Leaning over the rocks alongside of the salmon leap, we may stoop so as to ac- tually touch with stick the smooth brown backs so tsmptingly near at hand, and we shall find that they take little or no notice, merely moving to one side, without for a mo ment relaxing in their efforts to reach the top-a trait which unfortunately has the ef- feet Of making them fall only too easy prey to the local poacher. No art of any sort is required to spear a salmon when, spent and exhausted, it reaches the top of it's climb. Armed with gaf-one extemporized out of a scythe-the loafng 'gossoon' or village ne'er-do- weel may pick and choose among a crowd of salmon and white trout, and the silvery scales which catch the eye here and there among the wet grass are a proof only too convincing that he has not neglected his opportunities.
