during winter weather. Many a chapter
could be written upon that class of sport.
But as some of our readers are doubtless
wondanng where the paunchy perch and
the slim, shiny herring now old on our
streets are caught, and how the fishers
go about it, a few sentences reeardiae
the work may prove of interest.
Standing upon the brow of the hasher
hill on Saturday morning a number of
black objects,some stationary and othese
moving, might hare been discerned less
than a mile away. These were man and
buys tishing for perch through the ioe
with baited hooks. A few small wooden-
huts
oodenhuts could also be observed just at the
odd of the piers. Descending the hill,
and approaching closer, we find that the

Mr. Craib wry fur mime years past known
throughout Huron under the style of
"Craib, McWLirter S Co.," and had
made for itself a reputation. Mr. Mc-
Whirter has new retired from the part-
nership, and the business will hereafter
be conducted by Mr. Craib. The push-
ing manner in which Mr. Craib places his
trade before the public at home and
abroad by means of printer's ink, shows
that he is bound to keep up with the
procession of wideawake business men.

SUDDEN DLTn-On Friday last Mrs.
Catherine McCaig, the wife of Mr. Wn.
McCaig,Victoria street, died suddenly of
heart disease. She was apparently in
her usual health, and was engaged in
attending to her regular domestic duties
-when a spasm seized her andshesat down
on the lounge to rest. She expired
shortly afterwards. Deceased was an
old resident of Goderich, having conte
hither with her husband in 1846 from
the county Down, Ireland. She leaves
a.husband three sone and a daughter to
mourn her lose.
SAVED His HANDS. --On Monde; e•en-
ing, at the vesper hour, while Mr. Dan
Carty was attending to his duties as bell-
ringer at the R. C. Church, he caste
across a drunken Htghlandman in the
snow vainly endeavoring to keep his
hands from freezing. Mr. Carty sting,
ed down and rubbed the boor fellow s
hands to promote circulation, and almost
carried him to n neighboring house,
where warmth chased away the frost from
his limbs. Had Mr. Carty not acted so
humanely the unfortunate inebriate
might have been terrib;y frostbitten.
hanging from a leather hinge is rained,
the sportsman squeegee himself in
through the aperture, lets the doer down
again to darken the place, deposits him-
self on a rude seat, and with a "decoy"
suspended by a short string in arm hand,
and a tole headed by keen prongs made
for the occasinn in hos other head, he
awaits the silver scaled tool: The deoxy
ie made of wood, shout the miss sad
shape of a minnow, with pieces of height
tin for tins and tail. A pseee et lead fait
tared to the belly of this wooden demi,
er keeps it in proper position. The
sportsman keeps it genu, moving, and
the hungry herring soon are seen pre-
paring to gobble it. Wonders fish are
rather indigestible, and pointed steel is.
very penetrating ; and so it happens that
the pseudo minnow is never devoured by
the"etnuute bah, but that the herri,g,by
a sudden and skilful stroke of the spear,
is inpeled and in the sportintan's hands
before it has a chance to tell the edger
fish that the bait is too„ tough to eat.
Inside these huts it ,s mite dark, yet
the man sitting and watching throu
the hole con see every movement of the
herring several teet below the ioe. while
the•fish is not so fortunate, and ogles the
minuow with the tin tail and fins in per
tact ignorance of the impending spear.
The herring run in schools, and mine
days the waiting spearman is rewarded,
by a large strike, while on other days
the shiny ones will fight shy of the holes,
and the eportsuan waits in vain. This
herring sell at 25 cents a dozen, and are
very good eating just now.
On Saturday morning about twenty
live or thirty teen and boy could be
found a quarter -ef .a mile beyond the
entrance to the harbor, engaged in line
fishing. Holes a foot or eighteen inches.
in diameter wore cut in the ice, and at
sonic of these three or four persons were
standing or 'kneeling, each holding a.
line. Thr fish were biting well, end
arour.d each hole several deruene of plump•
perch, with their distinguishing mark
of red, could be seen flopping helpless-
ly Den the solid ice. The bait used ou
the hooks are carious. Some prefer a
piece of fat pork. which seems very at
tractive, but the re!a'ority slice up s
small perch. and his follows bite at 11.
,without any misgivings. The perch in
far iufericr to the herring fur the eeble,
yet many(' like the former, and a large
number are daily disposed of by boys at.

song and sentiment prevailed until the
"wee, erne' hour ayout the twat'," when
a party of jolly good fellows wunded their
way homeward, well pleased with the
evening's enjoyment The spread on
the occasion reflected great credit on the
proprietors of the Coitwrne.
