The members accompanied the re- mains of their deceased Brother Owen, and marched a short distance through Southport, the fine band of the 82nd Battallion playing at intervals, Pleye’s Hymn ‘“‘ Nearer my God to Thee,” and other suitable selections.

Tae Mackeret Fisnery.—The mackerel fishery is opening very well. The fish are not very numerous as yet, but they are extra good size. Between Point du Chene and Cape Bald there are upwards of 100 boats. The Point du Chene Fresh Fish Packing and For- warding Company, in which Messrs. Han- nington, Harney and others are interested, is doing a good business shipping in ice to the Boston market. The ice is chopped fine and the tish packed in barrels going through to des- tination in good order if not delayed. The fish are forwarded each day. Some idea of the size of this year's fish may be got from the fact that 70 will fill a barrel, whereas 120 were required last year. The Americans are arriving off the Island coast in considerable numbers, and some good dips are reported. —
