The suit OF Brooks, proprietor of the
New-fork Express, against the Magnetic
Telegraph Company, for withholding a
despatch, was decided To day by awarding
three hundred dollars damages for the
plaintiff.
itapears ,hat .somo considerable time

OF their circle Of faith, they invariably place man
as equal to Jesus Christ-thus matchmaking the
rising generation with false dogmas and theories,
the tendencies of which are to be, in tho worst
sense destructive to the moral and religious cha
racter Of mankind.
Now, the isde7n,,dem in coming upon the same
ground, only shows that the smatic writers of tho
day are no sooner infected with portion of the
disease Of socialism, than they become corrupted
by all of its most destructive powers. So far as
our observation extends, they are all steadily
moving forward to the Icarianism Of M. CADET
who, having planted his colony of socialists at
Nauyoo, Illinois, issues the Popular Tribune, to
teach the world what no means. He, too, desires
that the world will believe that Jesus Christ was
only moral and political reformer-a sort of lea
rian hero. He afirms that fraternity constitutes
the whole of the law-that nothing is requisite ex
cept that man should love his ncighbor-the more
SO if she be good-looking woman-and that, by so
doing, he fulfls all the obligations which rest upon
him while on the earth.
But we will not pursue this subject further at
present. Our duty has led us to exhibit the fact
that philosophical blasphemy is the foundation of
the socaistc doctrines of the present day, whether
promulgated by M. f. CADET, formerly Attorney
General ana Deputy OF France, and now President
of the Icaran Community at Nauvoo by the theo-
logians of Massachusetts, Parker, Emerson, ct III
onre geans by the Tribune newspaper of this
city, or by the In11Nnie'u newspaper, and Henry
Ward Beecher and his associates in the ismatic
theology of the day. One inevitable end awaits all
these theoretical essayists. Mistaking German
forms Of thought and the prose poetry of France
for sound practical and religious doctrines, they
obtain just enough of error to plunge them into a
sea of mist and confusion, where, sooner or later,
they certain to find themselves beyond their
depth.

1here Is found on the shores of the United States
greater variety and larger number Of mo(usc0
and marine insects. than in any other portion Of the
globe. This great abundance Of the natural food Of
fishes, causes them to multiply in extraordinary
manner. The coasts adjacent to New York bay are,
therefore, swarming with u great variety of the
finest fish in the world so well are they fed, from
the great abundance Of food-so sleek and content,
that very few, except the lean and diseased, will
take an artificial bait The hook, therefore,
however effective to supply the wants Of a
comparatively sparse population, is hardly sui
table to the present. far less the future, lnxu-
rious demands Of the population Of the United
States. Moreover, the hook does not secure the
best and most esteemed specimens-such as turbot,
sole, brill, John Doyy, SC. These fish rarely, if
ever take bait. How then these caught in such
abundance, and so plentifully supplied in all the
large cities Of Europe, particularly England and
France They are entirely indebted to the trawl
net for these luxuries 1t is remarkable fact
that this net is not ms yet used the coasts Of the
United States,l although all European fishermen
concur in its great utility and value. As slight
proof of its effect, we give the annual average
of turbot, sole, and plaice, and their value in
the Bingsgate London market Turbot about
fl00,OO0, equal to five hundred thousand dol
lars. Sole, nnety-seyen millions five hundred
and twenty thousand; value, say one cent EACH
equal to one million dollars. Paice, thirty
three millions six hundred thousand; equal, at three
cents each, to about million Of dollars. The total
wholesale market value of these three kinds of fish
alone amounted to the enormous of two mil
lions five hundred thousand dollars:a nd be il re-
mcmbered, that these are only small portion of
the varieties caught, and only the supply for the
metropolitan market. This is all clear gain, nothing
her nhstr ted thp 'ha otn1 vain Of
the fish, supplied to Billingsgate by the trawl
not be estimated under ten millions of dollars.
We do not hesitate to assert, that there equal.
if not superior pabties, on the shores of the
United States, to produce richer and more abun-
dant harvest. How little are the owners of the
numerous sloops and schooners, aware that their
voyage to the distant fishing places, such as st.
Georges banks, and other places, they are passing
over and negecting the finest fisheries in the world.
With the help of the trawl net, they would be
enabled to fill their vessels and food the New York
markets, with the choicest fish; and this be it noted,
close to Sandy Hook, almost to their doors.
Let the fishermen of America once comprehend
the use of the traw and We will venture to pre-.
diet, that the simple hook will be comparatively
neglected, and the cunning traw usurp its place.
We are happy to announce that British officer,
Capt. Macknnon, K. N, has imported one of these
nets fro mEngland. The great problem will, there
fore, soon be solved and We venture to anticipate
complete success
