Him; Sin,—
One of the Whiteway pleasure lioats, thc
" Hercules,*' arrived in here on Wednesday
morning, bringing the family party from Ode-
tin. It seems very hard on us poor fishermen,
who have to pay thc revenue that is spci-.t on
this po-callcd bait protection service, that whilst
wc ra slaving and toiling to gcUenough to keep
U* alive, our monies nre being used by the government for thc purpose  of carrying about the
| Mctirtth family. When the " Hercules" came
here from Oderin she brought Mr. Mctirnth,
who is preventive ofllccr at that place, also a
J. P., and who has been Iwarding on the " Hcr-
i-ttlcs" as a lfgal adviser, Mrs. McGntb, his
wife, Master Richard Mctiralb, who tbey say is
B beautiful writer, and lust, but not least. .lames
McUratb, Esq., M.H.A., our bumptious member. Tbey all landed and proceeded by rail to
the summer residence of Mr. Mctirath's son-in-
law, at thc Sound, where they will no donbt
spend a few days enjoying the scenery and junketing at the expenso of  the public.    Meantime
- tlie " Hercules" lies off the Jersey side at
eighty dollars per day. Yours truly,
The Swans.
