Few persons are aware of tho great extent to which the catching and manufacturing of fish into guano for a fertilizer is carried on on the eastern coast from Mai no to JScw Jersey. There arc 80 or f0 factories, employ ing 3S3 vessels and 20 steamers, with probably 2,500 men in all. The kind of fish used is tho menhadden, a spe cies of herring, and tho annual catch exceeds 1.200.000 barrels. The fish are cooked, the oil extracted and tho scraps made into a fine dried pulp, which sells for from ff-3 to$30 per ton, and is said to Ihj a very superior fertil izer. The farmers of tho Pacific, thus far, havexiven very little attention to fie value of the various means cni plovcdin other countries to fertilize their soil, but the next generation will be forced, by the logic of necessity, to give the subject tho attention which Tho U. S. Consul at Cairo, has fur nished tho government with statistics with regard to the cost of the great Suez Canal, nnd tlie value of the stock of tho concern. The entire cost of the work was $9--27tt,.H)7. Tho stock of the comnam was SOOKXiO.uiu francs. divided into shares of ."00 francs each, i These shares haxo been Mild as low as 100 francs, on the opening of the ca nal they advanced toItOO francs nnd now they are up to 717 francs or oxer. in lout inc jriiiii government bought 170,002 shares at COS mines each. This purchase, aside from its political advantage, gives said govern ment a profit of 2T,000,0(K franco. The receipts from tho canal iu 1.S77 xvcro ox-cr a0,000,000 francs and haxo since increased. Vessels drawing 2.T feet of water pass through tho canal, and two-thirds of all the vessels pass ing through it carry tho English tlag ; it sax'es it is said a distance of 5,000 miles on cm1s going to India. Tho wator has Iteeif receding in Beuna Vista Lake, Cnl.. nnd for a long distanco and left exposed a large amount of land heretofore covered. On this land thus exposed there are a great many cottomx'oodiitumps, some j of which are two feet in diameter.
