CUSTOMS RE-WAREHOUSING.—Yesterday, Mr. Powles,
Mr. Collin, and Mr. Collett, the secretaries of the East
and West India, the London, and St. Katherine Deck
Companies, with Mr. Chandler, the superintendent of
the London Docks, had an interview with the Board of
Customs, on the subject of the provisions of the Customs
Act of 1853, by which the owners of bonded goods are
required to re-warehouse them at the expiration of every
five years. We believe these provisions of the law, which
were inserted at the express recommendation of the
select committee of the House of Commons on the Cus-
toms inquiry, cannot, in their present shape, be carried
out. In fact, we venture to predict that in less than
another twelve months not a vestige of these alterations,
which are found most irksome to the mercantile com-
munity, will remain on the statute-book.—Civil Service
Gazette.

THE PARIS EXHIBITION.—Yesterday (Friday) a meet-
of merchants, manufacturers, and others, was held in
Leeds, " to consider and determine what steps shall be
taken in the Leeds district to have its various products
and manufactures duly represented in the Paris Exhibi-
tion of 1855." The Mayor presided, and there Were
gentlemen present representiug the woollen, flax, ma-
chine, and other staple manufactures of the district. An
influential executive committee (having the Mayor for
chairman) was appointed to take the necessary steps and
organise the various exhibitors. After the committee
had been appointed, several gentlernen present, con-
nected with large firms, stated the products they in-
tended to exhibit, and steps are being taken to procure
the display in the Paris Exhibition of specimens of all
the staple products of the district.
A NEW " DIFFICULTY" FOR RUSSIA.--A formidable
fishery difficulty has just broken out in a new quarter_
in the North Pacific, and between the United States
and Russia. It appears that, a few months ago, the
Russian General Sawoska, claiming a far greater ex-
tent of fishery rights than the United States has ever
been willing to admit, and against which the United
Stales bad protested, gave notice that all vessels not
, within ...aid I:,:iiis would he ea; turc.;,
and only released on paying a fine of $3,000. An
American vessel had been seized accordingly and taken
into the Russian port of Sake.
