phia and Norfolk railroad. plying be-
tween Cape Charles and Norfolk. and
had the reputation OF being q bold and
experienced seaman. The Eastern Shore
people who were acquainted with Cap
tain Costin knew that the board had
selected the right man for the place,
and subsequent events have vlndicated
the wisdom Of the selection. From the
day that Captain Costin assumed COM
mand Of the Accomack the Maryland
pirates ceased their incursion into Vir-
ginia waters, and uninterrupted peace
has relgned in Tangier and Poconoke
sounds. which had hitherto been the
scene OF so many boodless battles.
In connection with this. II may be
stated that there is now the finest strike
OF young oysters In Tanger and POGO
moke sounds ever seen there by any
man now living. and II conditions shall
continue favorable. and the right policy
be pursued, there is a fine prospect for
an unprecedented yield OF oysters In these
waters in the next few years
Captain Costin attributes this encou-
raging condition of the oyster-grounds
In these waters to the strict enforcement
OF the Gull law. which he considers one
OF the most important provisions OF the
present oyster law. With rigid en-
forcement OF tho Gull law and the repeal
OF the specific tax OF 40 cents on every
hundred dollars worth OF oysters taken
by tongmen. and the substitution Of a
tax of 81 per season for every torgman.
he thinks the revenue from this source
would be greatly increased. At any rate.
he thinks the experiment worth trying.

lar session next fall in Brambleton. The

lite tomorrow morning at Mackenzie
church. at Accomac Courthouse. and to-
morrow night at the Onancock Presby-
terrain church.
Mention has been frequently made In
this correspondence OF the peaceful con-
dition of affairs that has prevailed In
,he waters OF Tangier and Pocomoke
sounds for the past two seasons. A
vigorous and fearless policy has put an
end to the petty warfare that used TO
rage every season between the Maryland
oyster plrates and the Virginia oyster
nolice- boats. About three years ago the
BOARD OF the Chesapeake and Its Tributa-
RES purchased in New York fast-sail-
