Hut Both Greeu, the lamous brttnlor of usu, wlio knows more about trout thau veteran flshermeu ux(irusses tho opiuiou that lish caunot hear. Ho ulso gives stubboru facts iu support of hts opiuion. Iu a poud a hundred feet long, well stocked with trout, when the tlsh wero gathered at ono cud, his aervaut, lyiug flat ou tho ground, nmt unseen by tho trout, could strike together heavy stones iu tho wtttor without oxoitingauy disiurbuuoo umoug them.

With perhaps an exception in favor of tho csprioion canoo, there is no spades of craft which can glide from beneath it unaccustomed occupant with more startling coso than a fisher man's dpry. This characteristic, with tho fact that it it light, sharp, narrow, sod flat bottomed, suggests to tho avorago lands man, that a dory is not a very safo craft. Yet tho question of safety depend largely upon tho man having tho man agement. If skillfully handled, a dory will rido out a gslu in midoceau with comparalivo ease, when a ship's long boat would probably bo swamjxid. Tho important point nnder such cir cumstances i to keep tho lit:Io craft, as tho sailors say " head on to the sea ;" which means thai, tho bow must con tinually bo presented to tho on-coming wave.' Thus managed, tho dory, from jts extreme buoyancy, dances like a com on tbo summit of terrible wavo crests, which nould breakover and fill a hoarier boat. Hut if tho heart of tho rower fails, or worse still, if his thole-pin gives way, or his oar breaks, then is ho in daoger indeod. Tho dory, swinging broadside to tho soa, is rolled over in an instant, and bocomtts tho sport of tho waves, whilo its occupaut flods himself strug gling ia, tho watci. Tho throo rnetuods most in rogue among fishermen for takiog cod on the Hanks of Newfoundland, are these " hand-lining ' trawling," and " dory fishing." Tuo two former havo beou often described.

A Submarine Boat. Some time ago the world was startled by tho discovery of the deadly effects of the torpedo ; and as this fearful en gine of naval warfare ia every day ar riving at a greater stage of perfection, it bids, fair before long to completely drive out of tho field our costly iron clads. We cease, however, to marvel at the torpedo wheu we hear of the latest discovery of scientific warfare namely, a submarine boat. This boat, named after the designer of the " Garrett " torpedo boat, can be made to sink, riro, move forward aBd backward, above or below the surface, at the wid of tho manipulator. It is cigar-shaped, running to a point at each end, in length about fourteen feet, and in width about fire feet. It is con structed of iron plates nearly a quarter of au inch in thickuess ; and the weight of the boat, including ballast, is abuat Ave tons. It is propelled by saeaaa of a four-b uded screw, worked from within by means of an ingenious cosa btuution of treadle aud fly-wheel, and is steered by means of an ordinary rud der. The bout is balanced evenly by means of a leaden keel aearly two feet broad and weighing abont two tons. Access is gained to the interior of the boat by means of a little square tower rising from tbo center of the -cigar ta the height or about two feet. Once within, and having carefully closed thia mau-hole, the operator can. deseesd when he pleatos. At each end of the boat is placed a water-tank ; and it ia by means of these tanks that he de scends snd asoenda at will. If he wishes to descend he turns a small tap, and, this filling the above-awstioaed tauk with water, the boat naturally sinks ; when he desires to rise ap to the surface he makes nse of aa air pump, and, expelling tho water, re stores the buoyancy of tbo boat. In tho sides of the above-BMsatioaed tower are four litUe windows, and, ia addition, two small brass caps. These aro flanked internally by a long kind ol stocking of stout waterproof walerial. The cups beiug remored,theae stoekiaga All with water, and by turning then ia-side-out and using each aa a glove the opera or gels tho free nse of his araw outside tho boat to work his torpedo. Iu addition to working the boat, the submaitno traveler has to keep hloasalf supplied with pure air. The air wkteh ho exhales pusses by means of a tahe through a kind of knapsack oaaialaiaff a mixture of chemicals, and by taw means it is purified lutSoieutly to be ft to-euterhia luugs agaiu. The boot is, of course, lighted by electricity, as gas would inert aao the impurity of the at mosphere. A series of experiment took wlasa a short time ago with the boat ia aasssioa, and wero, we are givea to aaaiail. highly successful.
