The original vessel, the | John Fisher,” built from the model, was lost last Fall near Cove Head, and was reported te ibe one of the fleetest fishing vessels from the New England coast. The master-builder of the Lettie | is Capt.

She was built and is mauned exclusively by Prince Edward Islanders, and will compare favorably in any particular with the best Gloucester vessels. Her dimensions are: length of hull 65 feet 7 in. length on deck, 72 feet; depth of hold, 7 feet, iength of mainmast 79 feet; length of foremast, 68 feet; length of mainboom, 55 feet. She carries about 1050 yards of cottou duck sails. The Lettie is a decidedly pretty vessel. and attracts the atten- hon of marine connosicurs.

We are glad to votice that a much larger nimber of vessels than | usual have fitted, and are fitting out from this and other ports in this Island, and we trust that the Lettie and all the others will be successful and bring in severally full fares of the valuable fish Which usually so abounds in our own and ad- joining waters.
