THE HIGH PRICE OF FISH.

The fish market like the meat mar l1et is fast becoming the place of high priced food-the day of cheap proven der appears to have passed away. Whoever thought that swordish and halfbut would sell for 19 cents and 40 cents pound at the wharf This is what is reported from Boston as hap pening on Monday:
 "Halibut is scarce in Boston; there fore when fishing schooner Elva l.. Spurling Capt. John Watson,< came to T wharf this morning and her cap tain appraised the fish merchants of the fact that he had on board 225 pounds of the fish, that there was nearly a riot on the wharf to pur- chase the halibut. There was push ing, shouting and pandemonium gen orally, which served to quicken the pace of the wharf policemen even. As rule halibut is valued at twelve to fifteen cents pound, but this morning 1t was north nearly three times as much to Captain Watson. He sold his catch at forty cents pound. The man who bought 1t, Michael O'Don- nell made his bid while he had Cap tain Watsons neck in his arm and by shouting his price into his ear at such close ttuarters that some of the other bids were guishabe.
 "othsE kinds of fish bringing good
