ONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The discount market continues firm, although the available supplies are abundant, and the demand for c ommercial purposes continue comparatively moderate. A further withdrawal of 20,000 sovereigns from the Bank of England was effected yesterday. The Committee of the Stock Exchange have ap- Pointed Friday, the 13th of November, as a special ee ttlihg day in the shares of the Discount Corpora lion Company, and the British India Tea Company, to be marked in the twice-a-week list, and in the Alexandra Hotel Company, wh:ch are not to be ollicially marked. Daring the last few days there has not been lu nch animation in the Foreign and Colonial Pro duce 'Markets. The public sales of tea, however, Proceed e d w i t h out any ma t er i a l change in values Coffee, owing to the high rates demanded by holders, has been neglected. In sugar there has been a fair amount of business negotiated, and prices have not 'Varied to any important extent. Rice, fruit, and spices have continued in moderate request without Much change in value. In the tallow market there has not been much activity, although the progress of political events in Russia and Poland has caused a large speculative business to be transacted. The quotations for P.Y.C. on the spot are 43s 9d to 445; spring delivery, 44s to 44s 6d per cwt. The directors of the Port Philip :Colonial Gold Minin g Company have received, per telegram from Sucz, the following advices in anticipation of the Australian Mail from the resident director, Mr. Bland, at Melbourne, giving the result of the month of August last.

In the market for English Stocks this morning there has been some slight fluctuation. When sales at first preponderated the funds receded about 1-16th percent., but a few purchases subsequently re covered from the depression, and Consols, which are 92+, t for money, and 91-1- 1, less the dividend, for the account, wear a firmer appearance, although the tendency is to recede during the present changeable position of monetary affairs.

WINDSOR CASTLE, Nov. 9, The Queen, accompanied by her Royal Highness the Princess Louise, walked and drove in the park this morning, To-day is the anniversary of the birthday of his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales. Mr. Theodore Jenson has had the honour of placing his state portraits of their Rlyal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales at Windsor Castle for the inspection of her Majesty. The Prince and Princess of Wales. SAN DRINCHAM, Nov. 9. Their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales, her Royal Highness the Crown Princess of Prussia, his Royal Highness Prince Edward of Saxe-Weimar, with Lieutenant-General Knollys, Major Teesdale, Count Farstenstein, Mr. Odo Russell, the Countess of Morton, and the Countess Hohenthal, attended Sandringham Church yester day morning. The Rev. G. B. Moron, 8.A., offi ciated. His Royal Highness Prince Frederick of Den• mark, attended by Captain Lund, and the Hon, R. H. Meade, arrived at Sandringham last evening, on a visit to the Prince and Princess of Wales. The birthday of his royal highness is being cele brated to-day, and the weather, which for the last ,week has been very unfavourable for open air pursuits, has undergone a favourable change, the sun shining with great brilliancy; and the day has answered the proverbial description of " Queen's weather." Their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales are entertaining the Crown Princess of Prussia, Prince Edward of Saxe-Weimar, Prince Frederick of Denmark, and Mrs. and the Misses Knollys. The children of the schools on the estate will partake of a dinner given to them by the prince, and there will be an evening party to the clergy and the principal inhabitants of the district. His royal highness was out shooting during the greater part of the day. LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day. COURT OF DIVORCE. (Before the Judge Ordinary, Justice Wightman, and Baron Channell.) STONE T. STONE AND AGGRETON. In this case the husband prayed the Court for a divorce from his wife on the ground of her adultery with the co respondent, which the jury considered to have been proved. The respondent afterwards moved for a rule for a new trial, which was argued and stood over for judgment. Mr. Justice Wightman delivered the judgment of the court this morning. The learned judge said he and his learned brother (Channel° had read with much care the evidence adduced on the trial, and they considered the evi dence against Mrs. Stone was not sufficiently satisfactory, therefore the rule for a new trial must be made absolute. He thought it right to state that the late Judge Ordinary, before the accident which depriv,d the public of the ser vices of one of the most eminent judges, differed from them in opinion. (Before Sir J. P. Wilde.) FINLEY V. THE GUARDIANS OF ST. GEORGE'S-IN-THE EAST-JUDGMENT. The Judge-Ordinary in delivering judgment in this case, which was an application on the part of the guardians of the poor for a sum of money which a lunatic named Mary Fin ley was entitled to, in right of her mother who died leaving £237 2s 6d. The deceased had no other children, and the next of kin did not apply for letters of administraation, and therefore he thought the application should be granted. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day, MARLBORO UGI-1-STREET. THE ILLUMINATIONS.—PICKING POCKETS.—TWO lads named Henry Bolton and Henry Perry were charged before Mr. Manfitld with attempting to pick the pockets of se veral persons in Regent -street and Saville-row last night, the streets being much crowded by persons anxious to see the illuminations in honour of the Prince of Wales's birth day. Henry Dawson, 301 A, deposed to seeing the prisoners busily employed last night in trying the pockets of several persona in Saville-row and Regent-street, and on taking them into custody, and finding two white pocket handker chiefs in their possession, they both said they belonged to their " young ladies." . Perry said that the officer had charged them with pick. ing pockets, but he could assure the magistrate that it was a mistake. They were out like others to see what was going on, and as for picking pockets it was all stuff, and it was not likely they would take handkerchiefs when they had their own. Mr. Mansfield committed the prisoners for three months hard labour each. Perry observed that it was a mistake, but ho supposed he must put up with it. THAMES. A TERM ACUNT.—Martha Henderson, a very large and powerful woman, was brought before Mr.Woolrych, on re mand, charged with committing a very serious assault on John Cormack, an Irishman, living at No. 7, Broad Bridge terrace, Middle Shadwell. Mr. Joseph Smith, solicitor, defended the prisoner. It appeared from the evidence of complainant, who wore some medical plaisters on his head, that on the night of the 7th instant he was in the Lebeck's Head public-house, in High-street, Shadwell, and quarrelled with the prisoner, who took up a drinking-glass and struck him a tremendous blow with it, and he fell, and was insensible for some time afterwards. In cross - examination by Mr. Smith, the prosecutor said he was a seaman, There were two women in the Lebeck's Head. He did not black a woman's eye. He did not know whether be did it or not. He did strike a woman, but whether he gave her a black eye or not he could not say. William Kenny, barman at the Lebeck's Head, gave a somewhat different version of the transaction. The pri soner threw a glass of half and half over the prosecutor, and he jumped up, and she struck him on the head with a glass•, who bled fearfully. Mr. Joseph Arthur, surgeon, of High-street, Shad well, said he was called upon to attend the prosecutor on the night of the 7th inst. There were three distinct wounds on the right side of the forehead. They were lacerated wounds. There was another lacerated wound on the lower lip on the same side. There had been a good deal of hemorrhage. The remains of a stout and heavy drinking glass was produced, and Mr. Arthur said it might produce such wounds as those he had described. Mr. Joseph Smith advised the prisoner to reserve her defence, but she would speak, and said she must make an oration. The oration was a long oue, and we must neces sarily abridge it. She said that a friend asked the sailor for some money owing to her, and he said he would not pay it, and knocked her down. She remarked it was a shame, and the prosecutor said he would run her through, and then struck her, and she threw some beer over him. Mr. Woolrych committed the prisoner for trial for unlaw 'ully wounding the prosecutor. Dr. Arthur Penrhyn Stanley will succeed the Archbishop of Dublin as Dean of Westminster. Dr. Stan ley is at present Regius Professor of Ecclesiastical History at Oxford, Canon of Christ Church, Honorary Chaplain in Ordinary to the Queen, and Examining Chaplain to the Bishop of London. CELEBRATION OF A 101ST BIRTHDAY.-011 Sun day, a Mr. Foster, of Derby, attained the age of 101 years, and to celebrate the event a large party of gentlemen of position and influence in the town gave a dinner at the County Hotel on Saturday ev en i ng, to which M r. F oster was invited. The Mayor of D er b y and many mem b ers of the Corporation were present to do honour to the vener able patriarch, who i s still in the possession of all his faculties, and able to travel about from town to town disposing of charts and other educational works compiled by himself. He is well known in Manchester, Birming ham, Gloucester, Leeds, London, Stafford, Bristol, Not tingham, Sheffield, and other large placas, which he is in the habit of visiting in the pursuit of business. In early life Mr. Foster served in the army, and went to Egypt under General Abercrombie. He aftefwards became an artist. He has been four times married, and has a daughter now living in her eleventh year, she having been born when her father was 90 years of age. A LLEGI ED DEATH PItOM WANT.—Yesterday morning Mr. John Humphreys, the East Middle sex coroner, resumed an inquiry at the Black Horse Tavern, Kingsland-road, relative to the death of Benjamin Mcnzie, aged 49 years, who, it was alleged, had died from want and destitution through his non - a.dmissio n to Shoreditch work house. The deceased had been a shoemaker, and lived in a wretched room at No. 4, Her eford -street, Shoreditch. He had been unable to follow his occupation, and with his son had suffered great privations. Their chief support had been bread and tea. On Monday week the deceased applied at the workhouse of St. L :onar d , Shoreditch, where he saw Mr. George Rogers, the r e li ev i ng -officer, who visited the deceased, and ordered him to attend on the Wednesday. He was offered 2s. per week and a 41b. loaf, or, if ho thought proper, admission to the workhouse. He took the relief and also a medical order for the attendance of Dr, Major Greenwood, who prescribed for him. On the following morning the deceased was found dead in bed by the side of his son. Mr. Edward Waller, the summoning officer, said that he found the room in a most wretched and filthy condition and without furniture. Dr. Greenwood said that the deceased died from aneurism of the aorta. The body was very muperhopeemr ancoivarteisdh,maenndt.decmears.ednohgaedrss,uffthereedreflrieovm. i t n h g e - w offi an c t er o , f attended and gave a satisfactory explanation to the allegations set forth at the former inquiry by the son. The jury unanimously agreed to a veraict of " Natural death from rupture of the aorta." The inquiry then terminated. _ _ A SELF-ACCUSED MURDERER.—At the Portsmouth Police Court, on Saturday, a young ma , named James Grisenthwaite was charged with murder on his own con fession. It appears that the prisoner, who is a gunner of the Bth brigade Royal Artillery, was brought to the above port in her Majesty's ship A dvent ure by order of th e Commander-in-Chief, in consequence of his having con fessed, whilst at Nova Scotia, that ho had murdered a young woman, named Isabella Wilkinson, at Newcastle upon-Tyne, in 1853. It appeared that the whole of the correspondence relating to the case had been forwarded to the commander of the northern district at Manchester, in the belief that the prisoner would have been landed at Liverpool, in consequence of which Mr. Superintendent Barber asked the Bench to remand the prisoner for a few days, in order that he might be enabled to communicate with the police at Nescastle•upon-Tyne. It is stated that the prisoner now denies having committed the crime of which he stands self-accused, and states that he made the confession while suffering from delirium trem ens . A SSS ESSMENT OF THE INCOME TAx.___ In conse quence of several complaints having be e n ma d e b y the inhabitants of East Sent respecting the arbitrary man ner in which assessments are made to the income tax under Schedule D, Mr. Knatchbull-Huge ss on , M.p. , made a re presentation to the Board of Inland Revenue, which re sulted in the issue of a memorandum by that body. Th e document states that the persons who assess the tax on professions and trades under schedule D are additional of the income tax; thater3 for the genera l they may commissioners elected by the commission purposes be selected from the inhabitants of thel division; that they are under an oath to execute the powers and authorities vested in them " truly, faithfully, impartially, and honestly, according to the be st of their sk ill and know ledge;" that in making the in creased char ges complained of the additional commissioners formed the estimates of the profit s f rom their own knowledge of the different concerns; and that in the case of a person entitled to the abatement of duty in respect of £6O, the relief can only be granted upon hi s p re f err i ng a c l a im for the same , and proving to th e satisfaction of the general commissioners th a t hi s total in come from all sour c es , though amounting to £lOO, i s l e d than £2OO a year. THE RESIDENCE OF TIIE LATE MR. AUGUSTUS Egg, which is called the Elms, and is the next house to Cetmpden House, and the subject of a recent extraordin ar y trial, has been purchased by Mr. Alfred Wigan. THE FRIGHTFUL TRAGEDY IN A CAB. APPREHENSION AND SUICIDE OF THE MURDERER. The mystery surrounding the above horrible tragedy is now at an end, the murderer having been apprehended this morning, and by some means having succeeded in com mitting suicide soon afterwards, There is reason to be- lieve that he had prepared himself with the poison for the purpose, and carried it ablut with him. It appears that a man named Pearson, living in a row of cottages known as Ann's Cottages, Wellington.road, Camberwell-lane, having read in the newspapers the de scription of the murdered woman and children, and being struck with the similarity to that of a female and two little girls nau_ed Hunt, who resided next door to him, gave in formation to the police, and on their going to the house and seeing a man who admitted himself to be Mr. Hunt, and reading the description of the deceased woman and children to him, he admitted that it was his wife and chil dren. The police then took the man to the station, and while on the road he became very sick and vomited. On reaching the station the man was so ill that it was deemed advisable to send for a medical man, and notwithstanding his assistance the man expired, evidently from the effects of poison, thus adding the crime of felo ds se to that of murder. The murderer was traveller to Messrs. Macculloch and Butler, herbalists, of Covent-garden Market. As soon as possible the cabman who had been engaged by the murderer to drive him and his victims from the railway station could be found, he was taken to the sta tion to see the body, and he at once identified him as the man who had engaged him, and who was with the deceased woman and children on Saturday night. A letter-carrier also identified the bodies of the female and the two children as the wife and children of Hunt. Dr. La:kester, the coroner ; has been informed of the suicide of the murderer.

TEA.—Business has been moderately active, and at the public sales prices generally have been well maintained. SVGAR.—The market has been rather dull, although prices have not varied to any important extent for good grocery qualities of West India. In the refined market there is little change to report, the small quantity of goods on offer, however, tends to keep up prices. COFFEE. —The demand for colonial descriptions has been steady, and late prices have been well sustained. The stocks on hand are still comparatively larger than usual at this period of the season. RICE.—The dealings have been of the most limited de scription; holders, however, demand fully late rates. TALLow. — The market has been rather quiet. The course of political events in Poland, however, has caused some speculation in time bargains. P.Y.C. on the spot is quoted 43s 9d to 445, and spring delivery 44s to 44s 6d per cwt. The Prince of Wales' Birthday. Last night the members of the Inner Temple dined together in their hall. After the removal of the cloth, Mr. Ingram, M.P., the treasurer, proposed, in highly com plimentary terms, " The Health of the Prince of Wales," The Prince of Wales's tradesmen, numbering some 150, dined together at the St. James's Hall, where a magnificent entertainment, served in gold plate, was provided, a very handsome present of venison having been sent by express command of his Royal Highness. The chair was occupied by Mr. Nicholay, of Oxford-street, At Windsor the bells of the Royal Chapel of St. George's and the parish church of St. John were rung in the morning, and at intervals during the remainder of the day. At one o'clock the town bombardier fired a royal salute from the Bachelor's Acre, and these were responded to by the gins of Fort Belvidere and those of the Royal Adelaide frigate at the Virginia Water. In the town banners were displayed from the establishments of the Royal tradesmen and those of many other inhabitants. In the evening the corporation dined at the White Hart, At King's Lynn the bells of St. Margaret's church were rung, and the town had a very cheerful and loyal aspect from the flags which floated all day from the Gray Friars Tower, the gates, the churches, custom-house, and the various public buildings, as well as from the houses of busi ness. Guns were fired at intervals throughout the day, and preparations were made for a general illumination at night. TIIE ILLUMINATIONS. Mitchell's Royal Library—The letters A.

Settling on the past week's racing, and the disposal of a few outstanding accounts on the Houghto n M eet i ng, occu pied the attention of members till latish in the day, when some speculation took place on the Liverpool Autumn Cup, for wbich Catch-'em Alive was in great force, 7to 2 having been taken about him to money, but later on 4 to 1 was laid several times, although at the dote 100 to 30 was the highest price obtainable. Golden Pledge was slightly under a cloud, as, although there were frequent offers to lay 5 to 2 on the field, the friends of " The Pledge" did not evince any anxiety to get on, and at the fi n i s h 3 to 1 was offered w ith o ut a response. Fairwater was very firm at 6 to 1 (taken), and Blithfield was entrusted with some money at Bto 1. Earl of Surrey and Balham were eac h supported at 10 to 1. There was a little spurt on the Derby, but no very heavy blow was struck, with the exception of 500 to 30 being laid three times agst Cambuscan.

TIIE TEMPLE GARDENS,—On Saturday, through the liberality of the Benchers, permission was granted to the gardener (Mr. Broome) to throw the gardens open. The public, therefore, have an opportunity of wit missing the Leautiful exhibition of chrysanthemums in the above gardens, which have been cultivated there for nearly 20 years. The flowers are not quite so forward as last year, owing to the existence of dry weather at the time when they usually begin to grow fast, consequently the development of bloom has been retarded about a fortnight. Despite all this, and recent h eav y ga l e s, which ha ve done some in j ur y to the plants, th ere a re some heaut itul s p ecimens in lull bloom, among the most attractiv e being—Queen of Eng land, Golden Queen, General Slade, Antonelli, Alf red Salter, Progue, Vesta, Arigina, Delight, Etoile Polaire, Cassandra, Chevalier putnage, Beverley, Christine, Lady Harding, Rifleman, Jardin des Plantes, Duke, &:'3. Among the pompones, or lilliputian varieties, are—Ellen Lindsay, Golden egdo Nulli, lilac ditto, white ditto, Saloumn, Mr, Actie, La Lilliputian, Adonis, Ranunculi, A urora Boreale, Mr, Murray, Argentine, Duruflet, In both th e I nner and Middle Temple gardens (in the latter Mr. Dale is the gardener) the display of flowers will gratify a visit, and al. though grown in the centre of the me trepolis, they will bear comparison with any exhibition of chrysanthemums in any part of England. Oa Saturday, at Russell Hall Furnaces, near Dudley, the earth over an old mine gave way and two horses ate which were rt r n passingthe spot fell in and were suffo Gated. The e • Irrowly escaped. Sumo hours before ce a he had said he dreamt that he and two horses were swal lowed up iu th, earth, THE lONIAN ISLANDS. We take the following from a correspondence in the Levant Herald :•—• CORFU, Oct, I9.—The Legislative Assembly having by their address in reply to the speech of his Excellency the Lord High Commissioner, declared for the cessation of the Protectorate of Great Britain, and the perfect and absolute union of the lonian Islands with the kingdom of Greece under the crown of his Majesty the King of the Hellenes, George I. and his successors—the annexation may now be regarded as a fait accompli. The Powers who are parties to the treaty of 1815 will have to be formally consulted ; but it is believed that the revised treaty is already prepared, and will be signed without delay. To celebrate the event the people of Corfu have held three days' festival (Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, the Bth, oth, and 10th), during which time business was nearly entirely suspended ; Te Deums were sung in the churches ; an address to the Queen was presented to the Lord High Commissioner ; proeessions of the clubs and societies, and the peasants from the different villages, who came in great numbers, with bands of m , sic and flags, walked about the town ; bay leaves scattered by fair hands fell on them as they passed ; and as they walked along the esplanade and under the arch of St. Michael, with the Greek clergy and the Metropolitan Archbishop in full canonicals, in the rear, the sight was very imposing ; every body came in for a share of the zetos, and the greatest enthu siasm prevailed. On the following Sunday night there was a general illumination—the various clubs vied with each other to do honour to the occasion, and crowds of people walked through their ro)ms, which, in most instances, were tastefully decorated. The greatest diversity of opinion exists as to the time that will elapse before the English civil and military establish ments are withdrawn, and oven the gentlemen connected with these departments differ in their opinion as much as the public themselves. The periods named range from three weeks to two years ; the former impossible, the latter per fectly unnecessary. An occupation of nearly half a century is not to be terminated very quickly; many matters which have been put off must now be settled, and there are large quantities of stores to be removed. The best informed, how ever, think that six months will be sufficient for the pur pose. England is certainly manifesting the greatest liberality towards the lonians; for the Government have expressed their readiness to give an acquittance in full for the sum of £90,289 ss. 7d. now owing to Great Britain for arrears of military centributfon, when the Legislative Assembly shall have declared the Government of her Majesty quit and free of all claims on the part of the lonian Islands. It is rumoured that a reply was received by telegraph from England yesterday to the application of the Assembly re specting the fortifications, to the effect that all questions re lating thereto would havo to be decided by the European Powers. A telegram was received last Thursday morning, direct.. ing H.M.S. Orlando to proceed to the Piraeus, and she steamed out of the harbour early in the afternoon. ASIA MINOR. (From the Levant Herald.) SMYRNA, Oct. 24.—The rain-famine which is complained of in the capital equally afflicts Smyrna, and is daily be coming more and more the topic of common local remark. Only a few drops, so to speak, have fallen for months, and wells and cisterns are alike dry almost everywhere. Each successive change of the moon has been hailed as sure to bring relief, but as yet the hope has been in vain. This morning, however, the clouds promise well, and our weather prophets are confident that a great douche is at length at hand. If so, the relief to man, beast, and ground will be great, for all three are water-starved beyond the memory of our very oldest inhabitant. In perhaps some atmospheric connection with this unus ually prolonged drought, we had a couple of sharp shocks of earthquake on Saturday night last. Happily no harm was done, nor (seeing how we are used to these little volcanic freaks) was any one much frightened, so far as I have been able to learn. The shocks appear to have been felt still more sensibly in the interior, as accounts from Aidin and Oushak report some slight injury to houses in both places, but fortunately no damage to life or limb in either. The vibration came from the eastwards, and seems to have expended itself, or nearly so, on reaching the sea in this neighbourhood. I regret to have to mention the death of ono of the most esteemed members of our local British colony—Mr. Fred. Whittall, which took place on the 15th, after :a very short illness, at Aidin. The deceased gentleman was the second son of our universally respected doyen, Mr. C. Whittall, sen., with whom every class of our population warmly sym pathises under the bereavement. The body was brought from Aidin on the I6th to Bournabat, and there interred in the family mausoleum, in the midst of one of the largest funeral attendances which Smyrna or its neighbourhood has witnessed for some years. Every section of the popu lation—native and foreign—sent its representatives to ex press respect for the deceased gentleman and condolence with his venerable father. The incident, happening so un expectedly as it . did, has cast a gloom over our local society, much beyond what any mere private bereavement of the kind might have been expected to produce." SMITHFIELD CATTLE SHOW.—The annual show of the Smithfield Club will commence on Monday, 7th December, and continue the four following days, at the Agricultural Hall, Islington, on which occasion, we doubt uot, but most of our country readers will visit the metro polis; and to such we would say, do not omit to look in at Madame Tussaud's unrivalled exhibition in Baker-street, where many additions of models of the Monarchs of Eng land, &c., have been made during the past year. THE MAILS, &c.—SOUTHAMPTON, Nov. 9.—The Royal Mail Company's steamship Parana, Capt. J. H. Jellicoe, sailed hence to-day with the Brazil and River Plate mails, 143 passengers, £121,621 in specie, English jewellery value £1,360, French jewellery value £6,026, and a iul%cargo of British and foreign merchandise. The Solent, Capt. Hammack, leaves on Tuesday with mails for Madeira and St. Thomas, resuming on her arrival at'the latter port intercolonial service on the West India station ; the America, Capt. Wessels, on Wednesday, with mails for New York; and the Ellora, Captain J, R. Kellock, on Thursday, with the Mediterranean and Bombay mails. the Hamwonia, Captain Schwensen, is due on Thursday, with mails of the 31st ult. from New York ; and the Plata, Captain Sawyer, on Saturday, with the West India and Pacific mails.

THE WHALE FIS HERY.—OuFriday the Sir Colin Campbell, Captain Birnie, arrived at Peterhead from the whalings with one fish, which will produce about 17 tons of oil. Like others, Captain Birnie reports having seen a large number of fish in Cumberland Gulf, and he expects that the vessels wintering will make a good fall fishing. lie reports having seen the Alibi, of Aberdeen, with one half fish, and the Sophia and Lady Franklin, of the same port, clean. The Alert, of Peterhead, had got 22 tons of oil, but the Lord Saltoun and Queen were unsuc cessful. The Camperdown of Dundee, had 100 tons, and the Franklin, of New London, one fish and a half. The Sir Colin brings home 17 of the Alibi's crew and 14 of the Lord Saltoun's, so as to reduce the crew of both vessels to winter ing proportions.-Bcotsman. THE EASTERN FISHERIES.—III consequence of the heavy gales of the last few days many of the boats have come into Great Yarmouth harbuur, and less fish fish have therefore been landcd.
