that you can have no conception of the diff

rash thing, even in the goat, to attempt to

VIEWS OF THE BRITISH COLONIAL PAPERS,
The st. John NeU Bruasricker of the Oath,
remarks that Mr.. Webster iabors under the
impression that her Majesty's government is
about 10 enforce the convention strictly, &C.
cordng to the opinion of the law officers of
England. We believe that such is not the
| case. For some years past there has been a
tacit understanding that American fishing ves-
sells should only be excluded from those bays
| or inlets of our coast which were less than six
miles wide, and within which American vessels
could not fish, unless within three miles of the
land, either on the one side OF the other. There
| Is not The slightest necessity for strainlDg the
| terms OF the conventions; for il is notorious that
American fishing vessels pursue their business
everywher near the shores of these provinces,
within three miles of the land, where only in
the autumn they get the best 6shing-and il
is to prevent this fragrant and acknowledged
breach of the convention that the present
movements are taking place. Yankee fisher
men themselves will not pretend TO deny that
they FISH wrongtully; their usual excuse is,
that necessity compels them to violate the con-
vention.
The following is from the st. John Ners !:
Were the high tory ministry to retain power,
| we have no doubt but that very pretty quar-
rel would be made out of this fish story;" but
with sensible, practical, business government,
such as is likely to be formed by fusion OF
parties as the only possible result of the present
election, it is likely that more moderate means
may be taken to carry out the treaty reg lula.

may be agreed to as compromise.

DISASTERS REMEDY
FOR RECKLESSNESS,

being only fine, is never inflicted, we sup
pose, because altogether inadequate where
human life is sacrificed by hundreds. Itwould
be the climax of absurdity, when looking upon
the scores of victims of such recklessness,
6shed up from the wafer and stretched out
upon the shore, TO cry out '.The Captain must
be fined FIVE hundred dollars!' A writer in
the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, suggests
Lynching, on the ground that if the laws won't
protect the passengers, they ought to do it
themselves. The misfortune, however, is, that
in racing, passengers too often become as much
involved in partizanry for the boat they are
on, as the Captains themselves. Still the dan
ger and repeated occurrences Of wholesale
destruction of human life, make every descrip.
ton of recklessness on steamboat a grea
crime in an officer. for which, when it can b.
fully proved, they ought to be hung. Tn,
laws ought to be more definite and severe will

But Wood becoming exasperated, declared ne
