LANCASTER, VA, May 23.-The
dropping spirits OF the menhaden fish
ermen have been revived by the results
achieved in the last two or three days.
Up to last Wednesday, the season had
been the dullest ever known, only a
few having cleared expenses. But Wed
nesday night surpassed all previous re-
cords. No such catch Of fish is remem-
bered by the Oldest inhabitants. The
lower Chesapeake was literally alive
with them.
A fleet OF twenty -seven fishing
steamers swept up the bay that evening
and succeeded in making such marvel
Gus drafts with their seines as to re-
call those mentioned in the Scriptures.
Time and again the drafts were so
heavy that the seines broke from the
sheer weight OF the fish, but the fish

went FOR the fish again. the result be-

all night unloading them, and yester-
day two of the steamers were still ly-

touched. the force at hand being un-
liable to handle them. Nearly all these
