THE WHALING INDUSTRY.
Finuy Monsters bound Down East.

The tug VIM. Fl. CLARK of Boston, Capt
Milin, arrived in the harbor at o'clock Tues
day evening, having in tow four whales bound
for Boothbay. The whales were anchored in
Diamond Island roads to await the passages of
the storm and the tug proceeded to the city.
The whales are of the finback variety and
abound along ports Of the Atlantic coast
Shooting them from steamers has now become

four brought in here we're about sixty.five feet
in length and were shot during last week from
the steamer Fannie Sprague OF Provincetown
The gun used is loaded with bomb which
explodes after entering the body OF the whale
ami soon terminates the life of its victim. At
Boothbay factories are maintained for the pur-
pose OF securing the oil and preparing fertil-
izers. The industry is profitable one to the
people of that place. Each whale nets about
$500. The factories are the property of

Towing the monsters is work attended
with some difficulty. They cannot be towed
head foremost and when tug gets four or five
of them behind her it is heavy load. The

took her from Monday morning until Tuesday
night to reach this port.

whales this season, securing the last two on

The Church Of .he Rgessiab Fair

The fair given by the Church of the Mes
siah at their vestry was not opened under the
most favorable auspices as regards the weather
yesterday, but the tables are full of pretty and
useful articles, and the hot dinners and SUP,
pers are a most acceptable feature. The Japan
csc wedding last evening was given in admir-
able style, beautifully costumed and ELECTED
most favorable comments. 1t is unlike our
own beautiful Christian ceremony, as there is
neither priest or minister to ask Gods bless
ing on the bridal pair, and never an audible
word spoken during the whole ceremony,
which is conducted by person called Go
Between, who acts the part of general mistress
OF ceremonies. In the higher castles of society
the bride is attended by eight of her young
friends. who correspond to the bridesmaids of
our ceremony. The groom's parents are OF
first Importance in this ceremony, and are
shown great respect, taking the precedence of
the brides parents in every particular, coming
on the stage first and being greeted and served
first in every instance. Inste sd of preceding
the bride, as with us, the maids enter after
she has been seated by the Go Between upon
raised seat prepared for her (the parents hav-
ing previously taken their seats), and as they
obIeC prOSIraD0 themselves with the most rev.
erential salaams in front of the bride and
groom and their parents. The ceremony ia
largely made up Of drinking great many cups
of their favorits beverage, Japan tea. The
eatables arc small rice-baIls, which no one
tastes until all are served. The bride receives
but two presents, one from the groom's
father. at whose side she is placed during the
ceremony by the Go Between and whom she
faces, showing she has become member of
his family, and one from the groom's mother.
The presents always consist of jewelry. The
pledge which binds the happy pair is made in a
whisper to the Go Between by the groom who
delivers it to the bride in the same mysterious
manner and the contract is sealed by the bride
and groom drinking together three times from
the tWo-spouted kettle.

MIR. Cyrus F. Davis so long and fsvorably
known TO lovers of art in Portland, has-aftsr
the New York fashion-taken the residence
No. 6i0 Congress street, and has arranged the
establishment as an art school for the exhibi-
tion OF the choicest and most attractive works
OF the best masters. The basement is devoted
to the workshop for framing and moding. The
parlor floor is the art salon, and here the ex-
quisite taste of Mr.. Davis displays itself. The
great hay window, formed OF single sheet Of
French plate glass, furnishes splendid north
light to the front parlor, while the two long
windows in the rear furnish an equally good
light from the south. The rooms are spacious,
and in an old-fashioned tiled fireplace the legs
are burning cheerily, while large, comfortable
chairs Of odd designs are scattered about, and
pretty rugs are placed here and there over the
polished hard wood floor. The tapestries,
brc-a.brac and wall decoration, are all in har-
mony with the surroundings.
Among the fine pictures on exhibition is a
superb work by Nine. Peyrol-Bonheur, sister
of the celebrated Rose Bonheur. 1t is a cattle
piece, COW standing by the side Of one that ia
lying down, while little calf is approaching
coats of the animals is wonderfully reproduced,
while the animals themselves are remarkable
for their truthfulness to nature. The land
scape effects are fine, and the general tone of
the painting. Then there is an exquisite sheep
piece by Charles Jacque, the celebrated French
artist, an example of whose work was seen
here at the Society of Art exhibition some
time ago; beautiful landscape by Charles
Trayon, another great French artist one OF
Weeks brilliant Eastern scenes; remarkably
good marine by Fl. B. Brown; delightful
example of T. E. Kimball's, and another of
Hewes' skill; young girl by C. R. Grant, full
of sentiment and feeling; Fuller's "Bird and
Girl" seen here some time ago, and other
beautiful paintings. The engraving and etch-
ing portfolio is full OF delightful things, and
an hour Can be passed most agreeably in this
cosy and refined resort.
