DANGER OF AN OYSTER FAMINE.

Most of the oysters sold in this city come from
Long Is and Sound, Great South Bay, Newark Bay
and other neighbOring waters. The ice which has
laid its cold hands ON the streams and bays has
caused great scarcity of oysters IN all the North
ern cities and if the cold and stormy weather con-
tinues long an oyster famine Will be threatened.
Dealers in Blue Point, ROckaway and East River
oysters along the river front say that not al oyster
has been gathered for several weeks and that the
stocks on hand nearly exhausted. Fish COM
missioner BlackfOrd said last night:
'Al the streams and bays where the oysters lie
are frozen over or blocked by ice. totally prevent
ing the fishermen from taking up the bvalyes.
Long Island Sound supplies about thTee-fOurhs OF
our stock, and all along the coast Oh the West
chester County aud Connecticut side not an oyster
has been gathered for a month. At Rockawav,
Great South Bay and Newark Bay the diff
Guilty is said to exist. IL the crop OF oysters had
not been an unusually good and large one early In
the season, so that an ample supply was iald III by
the large Dealers an oyster Ianlne would already
be upon u.s. Small quantities of oysters are brought
here from Virginia, but there il not much demand
for them because they are inferior III quallty and
flavor. We have to supply the South. There has
been small crop in tie Chesapeake Bay this year,
and demands from Baltimore and Philadc pha have
been for some time a constant dram upon our Oys-
ter resources ! hear that Baltimore is cleaned out
already, and that 100 barrels of Southern oysters
were received there yesterday
"How has this scarcity affected the price Of
oystersT
Last week Blue Points, Rockaways and East
River oysters, by which all the oysters of Long
Island Sound are meant, have advanced from 81 TO
81 thousand, according TO size. and If TINS weather
continues, prices will perhaps advance TO double
the usual rate"
