The SUsoUEHANNA SHAD FISHERIES. =
The public movement against the dams in the
Susquehanna river, which obstruct the as
cent of shad. and salmon and other fish in
season, is assuming considerable importance.
Meetings have been held in many of the
towns along the banks of the river, and a
number of delegates have already been cleo
ted to the Convention that was suggested
several weeks ago. The executive committee
appointed at the meeting in Harrisburg, has
issued formal call for convention, to meet
in the House of Representatives at that
place, on the afternoon of the second Wednes-
day in January next, to which all the coun-
ties bordering on the Susquehanna, or that
are directly or indirectly interested in shad
fishing in this river, are invited to send del
egates. The Legislature viii then be in ses-
sion, and some salutary provision requiring
the removal or alteration of the obnoxious
dams, and for the protection of shad fish
cries in the Susquehanna, will be demanded.
The indications are that this Convention will
be largely attended
