THE OYSTER TRADE.-Few people have
any idea of the immensely of the oyster bust
ness done in the United States. The Chesa-
peake and Delaware bay oysters go all over
the world, and we learn from late number
of the Baltimore Sun, that one establishment
in that city, during the oyster season keeps
twenty five men constantly opening the shells
and they sometimes open FIVE hundred gallons
a day, which are all designed for expectation.
The oysters are put up in cans, in their own
liquor, which are made ar-tight and hermeti-
cally sealed they warranted to keep
fresh in any climate. Five men are constant
ly employed in making the cans. The oys-
teIs are sent principally 10 the Western States;
but considerable quantities are sent to the
West Indies, South America, and some have
peen sent to China. On Saturday week-the
first day, of the oyster-taking season in Fair
Haven river-six or seven hundred boats were
ready ror the operation by sunrise. The stri-
king of the bell in the brick church was the
signal to begin; and soon all was stir and
commotion amongst men and shell fish. Du-
ring the day between thirty and forty thousand
bushels of oysters were taken, which from the
fact Of their having been unGisturbed for two
years, were unusually large and fine. Some
boats took from seventy-fye 10 one hundred
bushels each, and some few went above this
quantity. Transient oyster-men sold their
products at the bank of the river for twenty
and twenty-five cents per bushel, while those
who make " oystering" regular business,
preferred to hold on for 10 make a specula-
ton.

Admission of California.

In almost every section of the country, the
expectation seems to be universal that bill
for the admission of California will pass both
honses of Congress by commanding majorities.
So far as we have been able TO observe, there
has not been single objection adduced to the
measure, worthy of serious consideration,
which has not been amply and satisfactorily
answered. The pretence that there was i'm
proper interference on the part of the admins
tration to induce the residents of California
TO frame State government, and ask for ad-
m sslon into the Union, is abandoned by COM
mon consent. Not particle of evidence has
been offered to sustain the allegation; and
resting on nothing but he unsupported asser-
ton of the mon and its coadutors, il OF course
f led to obtain credence In any quarter. But
suppose the friends of the s administration ell
Their with or without IS sanctions. endeavor-
ed to persuade the people of California that
such step was judicious and wise-the best
thing that could be done under tie circum-
stances-would that constitute a substantial.
reason for opposing her admission!
The only question Is, whether California
oughtto be admitted as a STATED and this should
be considered in its intrinsic merits, and with
out reference to the opinions or wishes of any
body. 1t is conceded that General Taylor, in
common with all intelligent and patriotic men,
desiring to see wholesome government, in
surfing peace, order and safety, take the place
of anarchy and confusion in California, may
have desired that the people should adoptmea-
sures to remedy the evils consequent upon the
neglect of Congress ; and all that can be said
on the subject is, that General Taylor and the
people of California thought alike on this sub
Iect.-TVash Rep.
