MAcKEREL FISHERY. We are not as bad off
in the Mackerel fishery as it was feared we
should be from the failure last year. The
Gloucester Telegraph states that instead Of
1900 barrels, as last year, over $4,000 bar
rels of Mackerel had been packed up to the
LIST inst; and the gross produce of the fisher
les, instead of the amount stated, would pro-
baby be over half million of dollars. Com
merce and tonnage have increased this year;
many new vessels have been added to the
fleet, and Gloucester was never 30 thrifty and
in such good circumstances as now, and at no
time was her prospect FOR the future so brgh!
and encouraging,

LATER FROM NASSAU, n. P.-Griat Distress.
The u. S. Gazette says, we have cur dates to
the 10th October. In the Royal Gazette we
find the following melancholy and distressing
account of the present situation Of the inhabit-
ants left on the once 6nc island of Long Islands,
more particularly III the Southern District
known as Great liaIbor
"SoFry am to inform you that the distress
of our Island is extreme, from the want of the
staff of life. Our natural resources are falling
every day; the Bay Rush, Of which we had such
large quantities last year, is now become totally
extinct. The wild Cabbage, on which many
families have subsisted in many parts, is entire
ly rooted out, and the only resource left to the
distressed inhabitants, is the young shoots of
the Palmetto tree, and the destruction Of these
has become alarming. To think that the in
habitants should be obliged to have recourse to
this invaluable plant, for when the young shdot
is taken oat il dies. What are we to do for
coverings to our houses, baskets, ropes, cables,
and very many other uses TO which this valua
bic plant is put to, when it is all gone! Our
situation is much more distressing than it was
the last year"
This correspondent goes or further to state,
that as to salt
awe have had such very dry weather and
partial showers, that we must naturally have
raked large quantity Of salt, but no-when
the pans were in state, and Oh the very eve
Of being raked, down comes Show or and de-
stroys it. This has happened four times this

The Webster Rent

Speaking of the 500, 600 which the Manufacturing
Capitalists have funded for the support of Mr. Webster
the Ohio Statesman Observes
1t appears that Mr. Webster does not go to the
Senate of the United States, Representative-the
pure untrameed representative of the people of Mas
sachusetts but the paid attorney-the mere stpen-
diary of the rich merchants and the monoposs of the
east. They have compensation of services, set
tied upon HIM 100000 This is publicly avowed,
and boosted of something be approved of There
is large sum making up also for Mr.. Clay, not only
as a salvo to his defeat, but doubt to hold him in
reserve for the next campaign.
The question now is, can the Senate receive Mr..
Webster under the circumstances, without taking
tce of this corruption fund pay him for his services
Can that body remain pure and uhsuspccted when its
members VIGOROUSLY paid salaries independent of
the IS per day paid by Government If these things
are wnked at, how long will it be before money is
the controlling power Washington, and in every Leg
islative assembly in the nation Our seats of Gov
eminent will become the mere huckster shops of poiti-
cal bargainers and the people will have become the
mere playthngs OF the rich, the corrupt and privi-
legged Ifonopolists. If Mr. Webster takes his seat
under such circumstances he should be expelled at
once and the whole subject of this species of official
pauperism laid directly before the people. There
should at least be investigaton-strct, thorough,
has seat IN as Bd9p that sch Senator who
be had, The nation is entitled to a knowledge of the
purity or mpurity of her councils. The wings seem
to think that nothing but money have charms
any longer with our people, and no effort is left to
debauch the public mind and prepare them to sell their
birth right of freedom for a few paltry dollars.

Plank Roads.

A Canadian correspondent of the Rochester Democrat,
writing from Montreal, Jan g. lS45 bears the following
testimony to the utility, durability and cheapness of the
Plank Roads in Canada. He writes:
"a Plank roads becoming general throughout
the Province. Experiments have fully proved their
cheapness over McAdam roads The plank road out Of
Toronto towards Kingston has been in operation eight
years, and has required but little repairing II supposed
will last two three years longer before pankDg
will be required. After leaving the panks, you go TO
a McAdam road which has cost per mile, 10 keep
in repair for eight years than it did construct the plank
road. The McAdam part of the road is being
planked a matter of economy. Three cords of pine
wood easily drawn by span Of horses the plank
road"
The Ohio Statesman says that in many parts of that
State movements are making for plank roads. We
have been of the opinion that such roads would be the
best and cheapest we could have in Indiana. We
have no doubt they would in many instances be of
much greater profit and utility to the public than rail
roads, the mania for which we is again sprnging
up in some parts of the State though with not much
prospect of accomplishing its objects. We should
like to have plank turnpike road from this place to
Lafayette, by way of Charlottesville or some other
route. Who will try the experiment.

Mr. v. r. Stevenson, another of the PRESIDENT
friends, came very being robbed, or detected
man trying to steal.
Such dense crowd filled up the lower rooms, doors,
windows, sidewalk and street, that approaches TO or
from Colemans Hotel seemed to be effectually closed
There was no possibility of saving Col. Polk from
this insati0te crowd but by smuggling him into the
Hotel sy private window.
A torch-light procession marched down the street
from the station TO Coleman's. accompanied with a
fine band of music. Another company, with drum
and ffe also marched in front of the procession
Thousands of people were in the Avenue. l saw the
windows Of one house Illuminated Other windows
were flied with spectators.
1t was finally announced to the crowd in front o.
the Hotel that the President would receive friends
tomorrow and next day. This enumeration had the
effect of thinning the crowd to some extent

A Honsier Incident.

The correspondent of the Journal of Commerce,
relates the following incident, having occurred on
board the boat conveying the President from Louisville,
up the River:
At Jacksonville plain looking country man came
on board who from the solid and condition of
his dress seemed just to have left the plough handles,
or spade, in the field. He pressed forward through
the saloon of the boat to point where the President
standing in conversation with circle of gentle
men, through which he thrust HIMSELF making directly
for the President, and offering his hand, which Col
Polk received with cordial good will. Says the
farmer, How do you DO, Colonel! | am glad to
see you. am strong Democrat, and did all could
for you. l am the father of % children, who were
all for Polk, Dallas and Terds Col. Polk responded
with a smile, saying, 81 He was happy to make his
acqualtancc, feeling assured that he (the farmer
deserved well of his country, if for other reason,
than because he was the father of so large Republi-
can family

filled with nonsense and humbug; but the Viser is an

or we would not say a word about it,-and what is
is better, boys like it, and have made promise
to save every copy we get for them The paper is
very respectable in appearance, contains good deal
of matter, and is embellished with engravlngs. II
costs only D cents year, and should be subscribed
for by good many of our young friends.
