Tub Hobart Town Mercury, while quit® convinced fl at the acclimatisation of the salmon ha* been successfully accomplished, confesses that it is unfortunate that none of (heyvung salmon have been netted, that ail pos-d iiity of doubt might be removed. Two salmon were lately reported as having been seen in the Ouse, a tributary of the Herwent, and Mr Rambsbottom went there to e deavour to secure one. Btf.ire hear rived t litre, however, the rivers had become swollen to a much unusual extent by rains and lie was unable to carry out the object of his exeurt-ion, but he reported having found unmistakeable indications of the presence of salmon. When the condition of the rivers admits of his doing so (adds the Mercury) he will pay them another volt, and he entertains no doubt that he 1 will succeed in capturing one or more of the fish he is in quest of. About fi.OOO young salmon were about to be liberated is the River Plenty.
