"SroP MY PAPER The following re-
marks are too good to be thrown to one side,
without at least a passing notice. They
are true to the letter, and suitable to all To-
c%alities. We are Of opinion that the weak
est capacity cannot fail to understand them:
1t is astonishing what exalted notions
some persons have oftheir own Importance.
They seem to imagine they are altogether
necessary to the onward roll Of our little
world, and that if, by any means,they should
be showed out of the way, the screws would
be so loose that the old machine would no
longer hold together, and Of course, il such
important personages only say to an editor
l"Stop my paper" the whole establishment
must go to pot instanter. We have often
laughed in our sleeves-though wardly
we looked as grave as an owl-when one OF
these regulators of the world has marched
into our editorial sanctum, and ordered a
discon tinuanee of his paper. And it always
does us good to see how the starch is taken
out OF him, while the editor smilingly re-
plies: "Certainly, sir, with the greatest
pleasure, Just as soon as the clerk has en-
tered a hundred or more names, which have
Just beer sent ~" The mighty man willis
down like the narrative Of a whipped Span
iel, and he shrinks away muttering to him
self. "Well, | am afraid that stopping my
paper has not ruined him after ALL"
These swells who stop their papers OF
account ofsome milf which has found its way
into their Uranium, are sure to watch tn,
time of the next issue, thinking that anoth
number will hardly make its appearance
and they are suret o borrow their neighbour
copy to see il il dues not contain the edi
itor's farewell address TO his readers.

The FISHERY DIFFIcULTIEs.-The n. \.
Journal Of Commerce Of Wednesday contains
the following important intelligence from
Washington
We learn from Washington, that the Cab
met held consultation on Monday last, on
the subject Of the fisheries. Il was agreed to
act with the utmost promptness and forbear-
ance, and to bring the subject TO an early adj
iustment. Mr.. Dobhin. DIr Marcy, and the
President, have acted in this matter in a con-
ciliatory, vet decided manner.
The Princeton and Fulton steamers, and
the brig Of war, Decatur, are ordered for the
fishing grounds. Commodore ShuDrick will
probably be in command.
The Administration are convinced that an
adjustment Of the difficulty viii soon be eiec-
ted, and will endeavor to prevent any collis-
ion between our fishermen and the British
and colonial yeesOls.
Mr.. Champion. the British Minister, actu-
ated by the most just and peaceful sentiments.
has left Washington for Halifax to obtain a
personal interview with Admiral Seymour on
this subiect,-the matter being too important
to be trusted to a letter, or to an agent. Re-
ciprocating the wishes o: the Administration,
he will endeavor to procure a suspension Of
British ORDERS until the time shall be affor
ded for the completion Of the pending diplo-
matte arrangements The Princeton will, if
no difficulty occurs, take in coal at Halifax,
and thence proceed to the East Indies.
