The owners of the salmon fisheries in Ireland
are feat killing the geese that lay the golden eggs, and it is
likely the aid of parliament will soon be invoked to check
overdishing. The Limerick water-bailiff states, in a letter
to the Daily Express, that be saw 188 boxes, containing
nearly twenty tons of mimeo, taken out of the Shannon
within a very short distance in six days. There are 117
fixed engines, some of them armed with three or four traps,
and fifty draught nets, worked by three men each. There
is beside' a formidable battery. called " the great lax weir."
It will be wonderful if the fishery can long survive these
appliances. The local gentry are about to petition parlia-
ment on the subject.
A Dorking correspondent writes, under Friday's

lism of the Dorking division, and by them consigned to
Wadsworth Lunatic Asylum. Mr. Alsop (who has resided
bins kg NSW time), a French gentleman, and Mr. Detmole,
a salient, to whose children the doctor has recently acted

alised to their care ; but the request was not acceded to."
A letter from Madagascar says :—" The King
received the mission most cordially. He asked many ques-
tion& about her Majesty the Queen and the royal family,
and I was interested, but by no means surprised, to find
that Viscount Palmerston was frequently inquired after.
In our dealings with the principal Hersh officers they
manifested a great degree of shrewdness and acuteness.
Of coons there were maoy instances of the
contrary. For instance, we strongly pointed out to
the King and his principal ministers that in order to insure
commercial prosperity to the country the first thing to be
done was to cocatruct roads. The answer was—' The mer-
chants must do that ; ' and it was some time before it was
proved to their satisfaction that the roads must he made
before European merchants would settle in Madagascar."
A letter from Hesse Cassel complains of the
damage ions to property by the enormous accumulation
large game in the electoral preserves, which include a great
part of the northern district of Lower Heise. In 1848 the
deer and wild boars were nearly exterminated, except within
certain forest districts to which they were confined, but
ander the reactionary government they were allowed to
break through thole limits, and since then they have so
much increased that all the woods around Camel and north-
wards up to where the Diemel enters the Weser are full of
them. Even in the neighbourhood of Wilhelmshoe whole
herds of wild boar roam about.

I have learned with pleasure your nomination to the commend

If there should be any fighting, you will find him worthy
