A Rise in MackereI.

During the past two weeks there has been
rise of from $125 to So per barrel in the
price of old mackerel, caused by the failure
OF the catch this season. Nearly all the
mackerel caught this season We're South
and they were taken into Southern ports and
sold fresh. On two occasions there was
glut of fresh mackerel in New York, and
whole eargoes were kept till they had to be
thrown overheard. But about 1400 barrels
have been packed at this port this season.
The demand from Canada and the West for
salt mackerel is brisk, and large quantities
are being shipped of last years pack. Two
months ago these could be bought for 81 per
barrel, many packers being heavily stocked.
In fact there were more than 100000 barrels
stored, being held for a rise At the present
prices dealers and holders can realize the
first cost. The most of the stock is 2's and
3's, which are mostly in demand in the West.
One cause of the suspension of A. M. Smith,
was the immense stock of mackerel carried
over from last year, he having over $4,000
barrels, which cost to pack more than an
average of $3 per barrel. Many have been
disposed of at less than half their cost.

The cottages on the island are now nearly

populated.
The approach of the shower yesterday af-
ternoon, as witnessed from the island was a
grand sight. The inky blaclzness of the
clouds rising over the city, illumined every
instant by the glare of the lightning, with the
roll of the thunder, all combined to make a
picture not soon forgotten.

The Reverend swindrer.

Rev. j. H. G. Boyle, who came here some
time ago as temperance lecturer, writes to
the Boston Herald from st. John, that lack
of business tact forced him to swindling in
order to get living. He undertook schemes
in which he lost all his money. He says that
when he arrived in Portland he met people
who knew him and he had to lie, to keep
from revealing his true position. He saw
Gen. Neal Dow and obtained from him dol
lar and letter to steamboat official asking
him for pass to st. John. This appears to
be all he succeeded in getting in Portland.
