VRGINTNs OYSTER AREA.-Capt.
Baylor, the Uuited States engineer de-
tailed to survey the natural oyster beds
of Virginia, has nearly completed his
report to the Governor. The survey
is finished, with the exception of the
natural oyster beds Of the Atlantic
coast side of Northampton and Ac-
comac counties. The natural oyster
are which will be secured to tongmen
will contain about 100000 acres.
Where the Chesal e Ike is properly ir-
Guided there will remain an area of
600. 900 acres which can be safely rent

oyster law has only been enforced
during part of the fiscal year and was
not approved until February %, 1892,
the State has already realized from her
oyster revenues under the new act,
