The bill to abolish fishing bounties, was
taken up.
Mr.. Hamlin of Me-, objected to Mr.. Claws
sneer that the hsheries were merely local
interest. They are so, he said, but no more
SO than sugargro wing. The fisheries, how
ever, have national Importance. No nation
mad ever been prominent in maritime affairs
that did not recognize important relations be-
tween its marine and its fisheries. The fish.
erles, though local in force. are national in
Importance. and address themselves to the
interests of every section of the country to
Alabama as well as to Maine. Mr.. Hamlin
summarized the political history of the North
American fisheries, showing that they entered
largely into the Revolutionary issues, and
that they were the subjects of contests for
hundred years between France and England
on account OF their Importance. In the war
oil 1917 the commissioners at Client were in
sructed not to permit our right to them to be
even brought INTO discussion, on pain of
breaking off negotiations. John Adams in
1914 wrote that he would continue the war
forever, rather than yield one iota Of the fish,
cries. They are as important today as they
We're then, though they do not represent the
same proportion to the aggregate commerce as
they did at the Revolution. The reason of it
Is, that the area Of the fisheries is lin
tied, and cannot be more extended =
whereas tue area oil commerce is ilhmitable.

Mr. httehie of Pennsylvania, spoke against
the resolution proposing the abrogation of the
Clayton Bulwer treaty, arguing that there is
no particular emergency which requires it.
The treaty when made, prevented a collision
between Great Britain and the United States
and preserved the peace. 1t was dictated by
good sense and good feeling ON both Sides
The practical difficulty between the two coun.
tries amounts to nothing. 1t arises merely
from technical Interpretation of the treaty.
He could see no reason for its abrogation ex

Tvs "NursANcE" DEcTsIoN.-We publish IN
.n,,hsr Mace, a communication on the subject
ofJsdee shnw's recent decision in the ROckPort
houor case. Coming, as it does, from an ardent
and earnest temperance man, of at least -four
teen wears standing" it is not strange that he
should feel something Of exaltation, that deels-
ion has been made so favorable to the objects ne
has at heart. We trust that, with him and al
others. who are true friends to the temperance
cause. that feeling will be tempered by sound
Judgment and discretion, and that they will not
countenance anything that will look like vinoic-
tive spirit in the exercise Of the great powell
which the law, and this decision under IT, uh-
questionably places in their hands, LET not nun
that girdeth on his harness boast himself as ne
that putteth il off" This new power brings with
IL new responsible duties and new dangers; ana
.he Question vet reuains to settled, whether 1t
will be so used as to commend itself to the
good will Of the people, and thus ensure us
continuance, or SO perverted as to create
reaction. which shall sweep it away, to the
serious detriment of the TEMPERANCE cause
The temptation to injudicious action is very
strong, and the line between what is legal and
illegal is not always distinctly perceptible, even
to those practiced in legal questions. The exer-
else of the power is therefore surrounded with
more or less of danger and, when mistakes are
made, there viii always be enough persons ready
to take advantage of it, and to turn the battle
back upon those who wage it.
We trust that our remarks will not be misun-
derstood The hour of supposed triumphis often
one Of the greatest danger. He is the true friend
who warns us of impending danger and not he
" no would blind US to its existence. The general
tendency Of things, for the last year, has, in our
opinion, been to put the temperance cause IN
better position than before, and this new de-
csion is but another advance in the same direc-
ton, If wise and judicious counsels prevail.
Whether it shall be SO in reality or not, remains
to be determined. word to the wise is sufhci-
ent.
