will convince any intelligent reader of the vast importance of the business and the large capital involved therein, With this table, those showing the holders of oyster grounds and also the list of steamers in use, should be taken l in order to reasonably estimate the bus mess. This Wear there was a most abundant "set' throughout the east ern EectionI of the oyster territory, and while the usual accompaniment of an | increased number of star-fish makes the eternal vigilance" which is the price of a successful oyster crop, only the more imperative, the prospect is good. The ''scares' which tended at one time to depress the value of Con necticut shore oysters have all passed away, and the demand upon the Con- nectlcut stock is as good as the state of general business would warrant. It is probable that the totals of the business done this year are equal to those of last, and that placing the value of the an nual catch from private beds from $1.- | 500,OO0, is not am overestimate. George c. Waldo. Christian Schwartz, G. w. Hallock, shell fish commissioners" A full list of the steamers used in Connecticut waters Is published, and also a list of the owners of oyster grounds. In the former list appear the following boats and owners, all of this city:

Alfred Austin, the new poet laureate, is a poet, critic, and journalist. He was born at Headingly, near Leeds, in 1885. His father was a merchant and magistrate of the borough of Leeds and his mother was the sister of Jos eph Locke, the eminent civil engineer, and M. P, for the borough of Honiton, of which he was lord of the manor. Both his parents being Roman Catho- lies, he was sent to Stonyhurst college and afterward to St. Mary's college, Oscott. From Oscott he took his degree at the University of London in 1853, and in 1857 he was called to the Bar of the Inner Temple. The publication, al though anonymously, of a poem en- titled Randolph" when he was eight cen, showed the bent of his disposi- tion.
 On the death of his father in 1861 he quilted the northern circuit and went to Italy. His first acknowledged volume of verse, "The Season, a Satire" appeared In 1861. A third and revised edition of "The Season" appeared in 1869. His other poetical productions are:
 'The Human Tragedy" 1862, repub- lished in an amended form in 1876, and again finally revised in 1889; 'The Gold en Age: a Satire" 1871; '1nterludes. 1872; Rome or Death" 1873; "Madon- mas Child" 1873; "The Tower of Ba- bel" a drama, 1874; "Lesko, the Bas- tard: a Tale of Polish Grief" 1877; ''Sa- vonaroa," tragedy, 1881; ''Soliloquies In Song, At the Gate of the Convent" Loves Widowhood and Other Poems, !, Prince Lucifer," and English Lyrics, D all published between, 1881 and 1890.
 He has published three novels--''Five Years of It." 1858; An Artists Proof 1864, and Won by a Head,' 1866; also
 ''The Poetry of the Period" reprinted from Temple Bar, 1870, and "A vindtca-
 tion of Lord Byron" 1869, occasioned
 by Mrs. Stowe's article, "The True Story of Lord Byron's Life"
 He has written much for the London
 Standard and for the Quarterly Re view. During the sitting of the Ecl.= menical Council of the Vatican he rep. resented the Standard at Rome, and he
 was a special correspondent of that journal at the headquarters of the king of Prussia in the Franco German war His political writings include Rus sia Before Europe" 1876; "Tory Hor.
