, SHIPPING SUMMARY. .Business in shipping circles has been very pi'iak during: the past month, and tho tonnage in and out of the port has consequently been very large.

The Harbour lloard, with a view of meeting the increased demand for berthage accommodation, propose to run out another jetty from QuayStreet, 350 feet long and 90 feet wide, dredging to a sufficient depth for vessels of moderate draught to berth.
