DUTCH 14ERRING FISHERY.

ROTTERDAM, APRIL 12.---Ilis Majesty has
just issued asi Ordinance relative to the Herring-
fishery on the coast of Scotland, to the following
effec :—
•" Being informed that some Netherland fishermen allow
themselves to exercise the great or pickle-herring fishery among
the banks and rocks on the coast of Scotland;
" Considering that the catching of herrings (for pickling) in
the ab-ve places is one of the evil practices which have been
considered from ancient times as injurious to the reputation
of the herrings caught and cured by the fishermen of this
kingdom ;
" That for these reasons, the taking of herrings for pickling
(pekslharin4r) among the banks and rocks of Scotland is
strictly forbidden by Article 34 of the Law of the 12th of
March, 1813

. .
" That, besides, the Board for the Great Fishery is opi-
nion, that the Salt-herring Fishery, for the interest of this
branch of the national industry, ought to be carried on at a
considerable distance from the Scotch coast ;
" That it is consequently necessary to fix this distance in a
positive manner ;
" Seeing Article 7 of the above-mentioned Law of March
12, 1818,
" On the Report of our Minister fog Public Instruction, the
National Industry,. and Colonies, &c., by the advice of the
Council of State, we have resolved—

" Art..l. No Netherlands fisherman shall be allowed to carry
on the great or pickle-herring fishery at a less distance from the
coast of Scotland than two leagues (20 leagues to a degree) ;
nor on any pretence whatsoever (except in cases of urgent ne-
cessity, as provided for by article 21 of the said laws) even to
approach within a smaller distance of the said coast, while en-
gaged in the pickle-herring fishery.
1. This prohibition does not extend—
•° ts) To,the great fishery off Shetland and the island of
Fairhill.
" (b) To what is called the deepwater pickle-herring fishery,
carried on in the autumn, more to the south, on the coast of
England, on the banks of Yarmouth; and, lastly,
" (c) To the fresh-herring fishery.
" These fisheries may be carried on as hitherto has been the
custom ; the fishermen are at the same time most strictly en.
joined not to cast the offal into the sea nearer to the coast than
the places where the herrings are caught.
" All violations of this ordinance shall be punished according
to the law of the 6th of March, 1818.
" Given at the Hague, April 4, 1824, the 11th year of our
reign.

" WILLIAM."

PARLIAMENTARY PAPER.

NATIONAL VACCINE ESTABLISHMENT.
A COPY of the last REPORT of the VACCINE BOARD
to the SECRETARY of STATE for the HOME DE-
PARTMENT, dated March 18, 1824.

TO THE RIGHT HONOURABLE ROBERT PEEL,

Secretary of State for the llo►ne Department, &c. &c. &c.
SIR-WC have the honour to acquaint you, for the informs-
tion.of Parliament, that, although cases of Small I'ox, after
Taccination, continue to be reported to the Board, yet the fre-
quency of such accidents, when compared with the vastly in-
creased number of persons who are now vaccinated, does not
appear to be greater in proportion than it was during the eatlier
years of the discovery.

The disease, when it does occur under such circumstances,
continues to prove as mild and safe in its character as hereto..
fore ; so that there is no reason whatever to suppose that the
Vaccine Matter has lost any thing of its efficacy in the course
of years which have elapsed since it was first taken from its
original source.

The Board has been occupied in endeavouring to discover, if
possible, what habits are most prone to the secondary disorder,
and to ascertain upon what peculiarity it depends that so many
persons should be rendered entirely secure, whilst a few re-
main liable to an attack of mitigated Small Pox. This is a
subject which has presented numerous difficulties, and we
cannot flatter ourselves that we have yet attained any
certainty in the inquiry; we are sure, however, that more
attention should be paid to the progress of the vesicle than has
hitherto been bestowed upon that point, and that it is most
proper to vaccinate with fresh matter, whenever it can be ob-
tained. We are unavoidably led to the latter conclusion by
remarking,'that of the eight thousand persons annually vacci-
nated in the metropolis by our stationary vaccinators, a very
considerably smaller proportion fall into the secondary disease
here, than is observed to be the case out of an equal number
vaccinated in the country. This difference we are disposed
to attribute chiefly to the necessity which sometimes arises
in the country of using matter which has been kept too long;
for, notwithstanding repeated and urgent injunctions to all our
correspondents to exert their utmost endeavours to keep up a
supply of fresh Lmph, it is constantly reported to us that there
is considerable difficulty in doing this. Thus, although it may
be consolatory to know that a neverfailing source is to be found
in the Metropolis, the gratifying conviction is alloyed with the
apprehension that, without the protection and support of Par-
liament, afforded by the establishment anti maintenance of this
Board, all the advantages resulting from the important dis-
covery of Vaccination would run the risk of being lost to
Society.
We have sent Matter, since our last Report, to almost every
quarter of this country, and to most of the Colonies.; and also
to Lisbon, to Madrid, to Cochin-China, and to China ; and it
has been received every where with grateful acknowledgments.
so that the name of Great Britain is associated throughout the
world with,acts of beneficence as well as of power.
We have the honour to be,
&c. &c. &c..
