WEALTH IN THE SEA.-Seldom or
never has the enormous Importance
of the harvest of the sea been more
forcibly represented than it was the
other day by Prof Huxley, in the adj
dress which he delivered at the Inter-
national Fisheries Exhibition. An
acre of good fishing ground, he point
ed out, will yield more food in week
than an acre of the best land will in a
year. Still more vivid was his pic
ture of the moving mountain of cod, "
100 to $50 feet in height, which for
two months in every year moves
westward and southwark, past the
Norwegian coast. Every square
mile of this colossal column of fish
contains 120 millions of fish, consum-
ing every week, when on short ra-
tions, no fewer than $40 millions OF
behring's. The whole catch of the
Norwegian fisheries never exceeds in
year more than half square mile
of this 'cod mountain and one
weeks supply of the behring's needed
to keep that area of cod from starving.
London might be victualled with her.

Speculation on the Stock Exchange in the
early dealings was very irregular. Union
Pacific, Missouri Pacific, and St. Paul were
weaker, while Northern Pacific and Oregon
TranscOntinental were strong and the gen
eral list firm. Union Pacific declined II and
St. Paul rs per cent. on the reports that
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy refused to
accept the terms offered by the allied roads.
4 sharp attack was also made on the Missouri
Pacific. which was offered in blocks from s9sz
down to S7J5. The decline in these stocks
made very little impression on the general
market, and shortly after P. m. the whole
list turned in the direction of higher prices.
During the last hours business a marked adj
vance was established, ranging from y to ~
per cent. Oregon Navigation, Northern Pa
cific, Oregon Transcontinental and Reading
started the upward movement, but later the
features Of the market were Missouri Pacific.
Louisville and Nashville, Western Union and
Union Pacific. A large amount was taken
both for long and short account and the deal
ings were attended with considerable anima-
ton. The course of prices during the past
lew DAYS dUOrQ6u unmlSLdkaDle signs OF q
gradual but certain advance in both bonds
and stocks. The bearsh element no longer
represents the wealth and brains OF the street,
but is confined to room traders. About S70,-

bursed in this city during the coming month.
and the belief that this large income will be
reinvested in railway bonds and stocks has
produced a marked change in sentiment
