ana very natural question what the u s Naval
Iorce under the command of the veteran Sbuhrick

sent out at heavy expense to the nation and tbe
galiant Commodore Shubick acted of conrse in

OF protecting, single one of ON fishing vessels
against capture for pursuing its avocation where
all our vessels formerly enoved the fullest priyi-
ieSes- and now, simultaneously with his return to
portsmouth IN obedience 10 the positive orders OF
his Government. seven of our fishing vessels are
violently seized and viii probably be ceufiscated

yet Mr.. Everett Mr.. Fimores able and arror,,
plIShed Secretery of State. confidently believed
and still believes that. with only one month more
for negotiation, he would have succeeded in neco-
tlaflnS treaty perfectly satisfactory to the Am
erican people. The Pierce Administration sue
ceeded to power in the midst of the seemingly
auspicious negotiation, and then Mr.. Marcy and
Mr. Buchanan quarreled with each other for the
honor OF adl dlusting the controversy. the one wish
Ing to secure the next Presidency bv adi,stinq If
at W Washington, and the other anxious to attain
the same object by adjusting il in London. The
adjustment. however. appears to he now quite as
tar OFT as ever. and a great deal further than If
seemed to be on the 9TH OF March. The Secretary
OF State, it is probable. is now as anxious TO Get
rid OF the negotiation as he was to assume it. and
Mr. buchanan. we apprehend couldn't now be
prevailed on to undertake 1t. The fisheries don't
bid at ali fair to make President out OF either Of
these ambitious innctionaries. The Administra-
ton, at heavy expense to tie countTy's purse If
not TO its honor. has undertaken to make show
oil determination 10 protect our fishermen against
violence until treaty shall be concluded but the
squadron sent out for the purDose of ostensible
protection must have had special instructions not
to make Itself anything more than quiet specta-
Tor ot the operations in the dispated waters. Our
fishing vessels. under the very eJe of that squad
ron, have been more remprselesslY driven from
their pursuits than they were last year, aud four
fines as many seizures have taken place as ever
took place before and or squadron, after being a
pacific witness of the seizures. has come of horne
8hlle in honor OF its departure from the fish hing
gIourd, nearly dozen OF our vessels are captured
at one sweep. And, most strange to saw not a
single Locooco organ in the United States de-
mands the protection of the U s. fishing vessels.
suggests that Great Britain should be held re-
sponsible for her violence. Lon Jc.,rsiR
