The State Of New Hampshire has but one seaport,
the city Of Portsmouth but such Is the insignificant
commerce Of that place. that in the year ending
June l, the total amount Of It's imports was but
$4,000, and its exports 81 100. Nine ships were
built at Portsmouth in the year ending June 80,
1853 averaging $50 tons each. Since that time,
however the shipbuilding business has largely In
creased. Portsmouth was once place OF conside-
rable commerce and trade; but for many years past
its commerce has been declining, the city present

neighboring city Of Portland. Its tonnage Ia but
one fourth as much as that Of Portland.

The corps sat down to capital supper, prepared

After supper there was more music, vocal and in

eleven O'Clock when almost everybody retired with
the consciousness OF well spent evening. Every
thing was done in good order, under the surye-
lance of Lieut.. Hart, officer of the day. His quiet
and gentlemanly style Of doing his duty is worthy
Of imitation by all officers who find themselves in
his position.
The corps arrived at Boston at six o'clock this
morning. They were received at the railway sta

TgE RECIPROCITY TREATy.--It was seen by our
last number that the Senate Of the United States ssd
rejected the Elgin Treaty requires two thirds Of
that body to saI ction measure OF this kind; but
VIC believe there was not even majority in favor Of
the treaty. One reason given is that tho United
States were not going to receive fair equivalent
under the reciprocity terms! We now hope that
our government will take upon themselves the re-
sponsbiity OF fitting ont several armed steamers as
"reyenuc cutters and send them round to tho Gulf
Shore, to keep the American fisherman at his proper
distance. Let Nova Scotia do the same. So long
as our neighbors can come and take our fish, and
give impudence in the American papers, whenever
We attempt TO drive them off, We need not look for
anythlng like fair play. Let the colonies make 8
determined stand for their rights. Jonathan will
not treat with us. Let the provinces treat with
each other, and place an efcctual check upon the
marauoing propensities OF these close shaver. Let
the whole coast be put IN state OF thorough defence
let armed vcssei be .aecn at all times which
ever wa, the observation is directed. Won't treat
withus. s. be it.-N. Johns M b. Nescs. July 10.
