Fish Ways.

The legislature of New Hampshire. at
its late session. passed resolution calling
the attention Of the states of MaSsachu-
sets, Connecticut and Maine, to the sub
iect of providing fish ways in the dams OF
all the rivers emptying into the ocean,
that salmon, shad and other migratlous
fish may pass up these rivers furnishing
food in heatlhtul variety for the inhabi-
tants of the interior towns and those re-
mote from the seaboard. 1t was also
resolved to transmit copies OF these reso-
lutions TO the governor of Vermont: and
we anticipate that this important question
will come before the present legislature.
and we hope measures will I've taken TO CO.
operate with the other states mentioned
in giving free run" to the Shad and
salmon of the ocean up all our large
streams.

TIE BARBARISM OF THIS WAR.-If this
war on the part Of the North, wrre, in it,
objects, the most just and righteous ever
prosecuted, the manner in which it is
conducted would damn it to everlasting
infamy. A single incident IS recorded in
our columns, this week, which, for cool
mAlignity, SurPasses anything We have
before encountered. 1t seems that when
Gen. Sherman took pnsseSslon of Roswell,
Georgia, he found thee a cotton factory,
in which about four hundred young wO
men and girls were employed, and what
should this pink of civilization do but
seize these girls a. prisoners of war, and
loading them in army wagons, tear them
from their families and natural protectors,
and send them to the railroad at Marietta,
from whence they were ordered to be sent
Rorth Of the Ohio riverl- The only
grounds for this outrageous seizure Of
these girls was that they were engaged in
"aiding the rebellion by manufacturing
articles for the southern snldiersl Upon
these grounds all women in the COnfede
rate States might be seized in the same
Way, and torn from their families and
homes Did ever white man before this
make waT upon womenr Surely we can.
not complain If foreign civilized nations
should regard us a. saVages. This man
Sherman has shown hIInSelf as actuated
BY spirit quite as brutal as any ever ex-
hibited bv Butler. His raid across the
mississippi was, perhaps the most unciv-
iiized movement. ever made by o military
commander: But this seizure of four
hundred young women, and transporting
them, like Botany Bay criminals, away
from their fathers. mothers, brothers and
friends, is an unexampled act Of heathen-
ish atrocity. No words can properly
characterize such vile and unmanly act.
Just here let US mention one fact worth
making q note Of: No matter how much
OpPOAed to the laws of war, or how saw
age or haTbarOus the acts Of any military
commander may have been during this
war, not one has yet committed an act
sufficiently atrocious to receive the re
buke Of the Administration. On the con-
trary, the men who have. distinguished
themselves for barbarity, like Butler in
New Orleans Mcneil in Missouri, Mont.
gomery Gith his negro ruffians in South
Carolina, and Hunter, wherever he has
been. stand the highest in its favor.-
These facts are worth remembering. A
prominent Republican has made the re-
mark that "if the Union cannot be re.
stored, it iS desirable to make the moral
separation as wide as possible, as it will
assist in the material separation" Is
this the key of the barbarous policy.
