PoRr TOWNSEND. Sept. 3.-lSpecial.l +
The schooner Euranus arrived from Ber-
ing sea last night with $1,000 Goldfish,
after q. five months voyage. The vessel
reports experiencing an unusual amount
of fog and rainy weather this season. The
captain says that he is of the opinion that
many sealing schooners were unlawfully
engaged in killing seals with firearms.
Near where he lay were three or four
schooners who kept Gordon of picked
boats out q sufficient distance to give
timely warning of the approach of q rev.
enue cutter. Inside of the circle would
be several boats crews slaughtering seals
without interference. If cutter vas
sighted firing would cease. and one of the
boats would take the firearms and freshly
slain seals on board and pull of into the
fog and wait until the examination was
concluded and cutter departed. Ifinquiry
was made as to what had become of the
men and boat. answer would be made that
they were lost from the vessel some time
previous As soon as few dozen seals
were killed the skins would be cached
on an unfrequented island and the
schooner would return to the sealing
ground. The uranus crew report that
this was constantly praeticed in the sea.
and that il was no secret among the seal
ing craft
