Fishery Question Likely to be Settled.

1t is understood that Gen. Schenck has
been summoned to Washington, at the ur-
gent request of Minister Thornton and Sir
John Ross, who have assured Mr.. Fish tha
they are authorized by the British COVE IN
ment to say that in good feeling the Domin-
ion authorities have been instructed, per-
|emptoriy, at once to restore the license sys
tenn to our fishermen, 50 as to give them
practically the rights and privileges pertain
ing to the nshore fisheries on the coasts of
British North America. This concession is
to be made without conditions, and evident
ly in the expectation that it may lead to such
amcabe relations as will the more readily
pave the way for speedy reopening of the
Alabama Question upon Gen. Schenck's ad
vent in England. In order to get forced
acquescencc of Canada, 4 delay Of some
three weeks on Gen. Schenck's departure has
been asked for by the English agents. AS
the Canadian official organ at Ottowa. fierce
ly denies the right of England to interfere in
the fisheries in opposition to the Canadians
themselves, and declares that the freedom Of
the fisheri es will never be assented to unless
by an equivalent in the shape of recipro
lefty, some doubts are expressed in official
circles rs to the ability Of Thornton and Sir
John Ross to keep their promise. Meantime
the committee on foreign relations in both
Houses are taking no action on the fishery
question pending the promised settlement.

TERRIBLE RAILROAD ACCIDENT.

A most terrible accident occurred on Mon
day night, near PoughEeepse, on the llnd-
son River Railroad An oil train broke
down ON the bridge, setting the train on fire,
and the burning cars were run into by the
night express. To add to the horrors, the
bridge broke down, letting both trains into
the water The following are the particu-
lars
An axle of the Oil train bound south broke when
passing New Hamburg, and dragged along the
ground till it reached the draw-brdge, when strik-
ing the timbers it threw the car off its track and
upon the up track in the face of the second Pa cihc
express. S. ,,o .;,,,o a.. o,,;ooo -,
one sheet of flames, and though desperate attempts
made to the passengers, it is said that
not one got out alive. Two other sleeping cars
next to it were also wrapped in flames, but the pas
sengers in them all got out safely, and then the
bridge took fire.
An attempt was made TO stop the express which
was then approaching, but there was not time
enough and it struck the oil car and the fragments
of the oil scattered in every direction and at
once ignited, enveloping the entire express train
in flames. The express train was composed of a
locomotive, one baggage car, one express car and
five or six sleeping cars. The locomotive was at
once hurled into the river, the engineer killed, and
the baggage and express cars were piled on top of
the engine.
In less than ten minutes afterwards the whole
structure fell carrying with it the Chicago car and
burying it and its inmates out of sight under water,
and among the ruins of the locomotive and express
cars. This terrible result settled all doubts as to
the probability of rescuing any one, dead or alive
and there was nothing done until daylight. The
killed thus far known are the Engineer, Conductor
of the Chicago car, and brakman. 1t is also
thought that Rev. DR.. Deems of the Church of the
Strangers, New York city, and his wife are among
the dead, as gentleman stated that they occupied
berth in the Chicago car. Charles Cossum. con-
ductor of the train, states that there sixty-ve-
sleeping car tickets, and that he has found the
owners of fifty-two of them, indicating that but
thirteen person are missing. The passengers say,
however, that the Chicago car contained twenty
five or thirty persons and that none got out alive.
All the trains are stopped at the break and the
work Of recovering the dead bodies has comm enc
ed. Coroner Andrews of Poughkeepsie, has been
notified and is waiting for train to convey him to
the spot. Upon the ice near the wreck body was
found with the entrails torn out and the head and
legs crushed. 1t has not been identified.

RALEIGH, N. c., Jan. 80.
TO give an instance of the manner in which
our people have been swindled by the swarm
of carpet baggers, whom Holden assisted in
all their wicked designs it will only be nee
essary to mention an incident of recent oc-
currence. One M. S. Littletield, from Phila-
delphia, came to this state some years ago,
was appointed by Holden President of the
w. N. c. Railroad Company, and by bribes
and presents induced the Radical Legislature
to issue to him bonds to the amount of ST.
York, pocketcd the money, and decamped
for Europe. After remaining there for a
long time, and thinking the matter had been
forgotten, he returned to Florida, doubtless
to practise tho same game there. He was
indicted by the Superior Court of this State,
and Gov. Caldwell Ga Radical himselD des-
patched last week a special messenger to
Tallahassee with a requisition upon Govern
or Reid to deliver up the thief. Reid refused
to do SO, and on last Saturday the state Leg
islature authorized Governor Caldwell to
offer reward of $1,000 for the arrest of Lit
tletield. In his message to the Legislature
requesting the authority to offer the reward
Governor Caldwell uses the following Ian
guage:
This action on the part of the Governor
OF flOflda IS, IN my opinl0n, unworthy OF the
executive of any State and we'll warrants
the presumption that there is some latent in
huence operating upon his Excelency which
prompts him to protect this fugitive and of
ford him opportunity to escape"
And yet this man Littlefeld this fugitive
thief, was boon companion Of General
Grant at Long Branch. Comment unneces-

MIR. Seth Green, one of the most skilled of
those now embarked in the cultivation OF fish,

stock the northern streams with tho best tlsh
A remarkable illustration with regard to
shad in the Connecticut appears in the report
of the fish commissioners OF Massachusetts
submitted to the Legislature last January. Al
ter some account of the process OF Matching
shad, by which in the spring OF 1870 there
we're hatched and turned loose at Hadley Balls,
in the Connecticut river, 6O,OOO 900 OF en-
bryos, the report describes the enormous take
in that river. For years the supply Of shad
had been falling off from the curtailment of
Matching grounds by the dams in the river and
by the modern modes of catching fish, which
are very destructive. In May, 20, the enorm-
Gus influx Of shad was without precedent. The
report says:
''On Sunday, May q, vessels in Long Island
sound observed the unusal spectacle OF vast
shoals of shad The next day they struck su IN IN
at and about the mouth Of the river and hed
the nets At Lincoln, ten miles from the
mouth, and on the coast $500 fish we're taken
in one pound, $500 is usually large catch,)
and the total yield of the pounds for that day
we're $4,000. At Huddam island, a short dis
tauce up the river, 100 were taken at one
sweep of the seine, which is more than one
third the yield of a similar seine for the whole
of the previous season A seine four miles be-
low Hartford took 900 the same day. Now,
it does not appear that on the Hudson to the
west OF on the Merrimack, to the east, the run
Of shad was unusual. On the contrary, both
those rivers report small average. Whence,
then, this local phenomenon? The Connecticut
people call them Green shad, attributing the
increase to the artificial Matching by Seth Green
at Hadley Falls in 1867" 1t takes three and
four years for the shad to mature.
This is very interesting and conclusive
piece of testimony. By the process of artificial
Matching nearly all the eggs ale Matched, and
the young fish matured. BY the natural hatch
ing, with the Instructions now in every river,
ted ted are T hstehed, % and large part Of Of the en-
bfyos when hatched perish. 1t is co9jectured
