Fish and Fishing.

The pinkev Ella left Saturday on another
fishing trip, with Capt. Cannon and Oscar
Clark on board.
A fine looking fishing sloop, the Ranger,
of Eagle Island, came into port Saturday.
She looked able enough to go round the
Horn.
Fresh mackerel We're in our markets Sat
llrday. From present indications, this
son will be good one for mackerel fishing.
The salmon fishermen say that seals were
never more numerous along the river and
bay, or so destructive as they are now. They
spoil great many fish in the wiers.
A Belfast fisherman says our harbor is
full of young pollock, and that he never be-
fore saw them so plentiful, the waters being
literally alive with them. Halbor pollock
are an excellent pan fish.
Mr. F. A. Shaw, of Springfield, who is
visiting his son here, is an ardent fisherman.
He says he has within two weeks caught in
the streams of Waldo county 300 trout, many
of them large and handsome fish.
Capt. u. A. Mcdonald. with Capt. Had
lock, in the fishing schooner Tornado, of
South West Harbor, came to Belfast last
week for stores. Capt Mcdonald left his
cat-boat down east He reports fish scarce
down the bay
Cunners have been caught down the bay
Last week Mr.. Shaw landed fourteen fish
ing off the rocks at Duck Trap, Lincolnville
The fish ought to be in our harbor by this
time. Last summer the steam dredger at
work in our harbor broke up the Gunner
fishing off Goose river.
The f. c. B. returned Saturday from
fishing trip down the bay, having visited
Long Island, Mt. Desert, Isle au Haut and
the White Islands. Fish were plenty, but
fog and heavy weather prevented much fish
ing. The crew consisted of Messrs. Sewall
and Nate Patterson and Austin Clough. and
all looked though they had partaken of
something more substantial than fog. Capt.
Sewall had at least two inches more beam
than when he left here. The F. C. B sailed
yesterday on another trip, but Capt Sewall
remained at home.

OF this date. rendering your resi- nation of
the office OF secretary OF state al the nit
ed States, has been received. The terms
il which you state your desires are such
as To leave me no choice but TO accede to
your wishes at once. Youl resignation is
therefore accepted.
Very respectfully yours.
BENJAMIN II AREI~oN
Hon. JAMES q. BLAINE.
Mr. Blaine resignation was a complete
surprise to the country, and his most init
mate friends appear to have been equally
in the dark as to his intentions. The mo-
tives which prompted this step are like
wise known only to the late Secretary of
State. 1t suggests. however. two inter
pretations, either OF both OF which may be
correct. First. that the relations between
the President and the Secretary have been
inharmonous. This has been frequently
asserted, and as often denied. We have
been told that in the CHILEAN and the Beh-
ring Sea matters Mr.. Blaine conservatism
prevailed over the more aggressive ideas
OF the President. and that in other mat
tiers they differed widely as to create
it Wa, asserted that a complete under
standing existed between the President
and The Secretary and that their relations
Were entirely harmonious We are in
clinel to credit the former statement
Secondly and this was the more vital
pla>- OF the matter-tlS resignation WAS
accepted as committing Nh Blaine to
contest for the Presidential nomination at
Minneapolis. 1t was believed that while
his letter of withdrawal was sincere. and
he was not willing then. and did not now
desire to become It candidate. the pressure
upon him became too great to withstand.
and in yielding to the wishes of friends his
resignation was first in order What Sena-
tor Platt says on this point appears to us
conclusive He says: mo accusation of
bad faith or double dealing can be made
against Mr.. Blaine. His letter of with
drawal was written before the election of
any of the delegates to this convention
The President had a clear field, and the
majority of the delegates elected to Min
neapolis were opposed to the nomination
of Mr.. Blaine on the ground of unavail-
ability. Mr.. Blaine is simply yielding to
the overwhelming sentiment of the Re
publicans of every State in the Union
As we write "wednesday MI Blaine S
candidacy is an accepted fact and the
contest is apparently between him and
Harrison, in which case the nomination
will he made on the first ballot Should
Alger conclude to run, and other States
honor their ''favorite sons with compli-
mentary votes, the struggle may be pro-
longed. The friends of Blaine and of
Harrison each claim a preponderance of
votes. but most observers anticipate a
stampede to Blaine when the balloting
begins. SO much time is necessarily con-
sumed in organization that we shall not
be able to announce the result this week
The nomination will probably be made
to-day.
