The New York World is dwelling
upon Mr.. Greeley's various Qualiica-
tions for the Presidency, and show
ing his superiority in almost every
respect to Grant. For example:
Mr.. Greclev's very wide acquaint-
ance with public men of local as well
as general reputation will be OF great
advantage to him in other respects.
= Finally. an important but
subordinate part of the duties of a
President is the preparation of public
documents. For this function Gree
ley's superiority to Grant is immeas-
urable. Mr.. Greeley is n of the
c~learest, most forcible, and most bus
ipess-like writers of his time, and
General Grant one of the most
ieiune, clumsy, and imbecile. Mr..
Greeley's messages will be models of
plain, manly composition, and his
suggestions and skilful touches will
improve the reports of the heads of
departments. Mr.. Greeley is so
! much superior to his ignorant, stolid
competitor in every valuable quail
ification for the Presidency, that a
comparison between them, in this
respect. seems almost as absurd as a
discussion of their comparative
qualifications to command q great
army, in which Grant is as superior
to Greeley as he is inferior in every
requisite for high civil office.

Among the aspirants for State
Senate in this county. on the Grant
side. we have heard mentioned the
names of Hon. 4. J. Lockwood, OF
Empire; General I. d. Edwards and
Hon. Jas. S. Slingerland, of Carson
City. They each have warm friends
in Ormsby county, in their party.
Slingerland has many warm per
sonal friends and will make a strong
fight, and might be successful IN Sc
curing the nomination. The Democ-
racv should look around for a good
man, who can easily clean the field
on the opposite side.

The citizens of Unionvllle contem-
plate the building of a wagon road
oyer the mountains, between that
place and Rye Patch or Oreana. 1he
enterprise would greatly shorten the
distance to the c.. p. r. R., and re-
dound immensely to the advantage
of that rich mineral belt of country.
The Winnemucca Register suggests
the building of a narrow guage rail
road to Mill City as the most prac-
ticable policy to adopt. Both
propositions are good, and perhaps
both will be adopted.

have been employed to select the
proper site. After an examination
of both regions, it IS understood that
a point near where the Central Pa

the Sierras. the elevation of which Is
about 10. 900 feet above the sea level,
will probably be selected as the site
for the new observatory.

The Dominion Fisheries-Report OF the
Minister OF Marine for 1s71-The Prod
uce of One Year S75,732,OOO.
OTTAWA, Ont, April 90, 1872
The annual report of the Minister of Marine and
Fisheries, submitted to Parliament last evening,
shows the general condition Of the fisheries under
the Dominion during the past year, more especially
In Nova Scotia The actual value Of the produce Of
the fisheries for the purposes OF trade is $75 oOo
being an excess over that Of the preceding year Of
$99s, $780, It is estimated that the quantity con-
sumed for domestic uses is 100000 worth. The
amount Of capital thus engaged is estimated at
SIS, ,OOO The number Of persons employed Is
about eight thousand seven hundred.
In making comparisons Of total values 1t must be
borne in mind that the prices Of certain kinds Of
fish ruled much lower in 1871 than in 1870. Mackerel
in 1870 were rated at $2 to SIS per barrel for the
cheaper grades, and in 1871 only 81 to SIS. The
actual quantity taken was about three times greater
in the latter year than In the former. The total
value Is actually less. The fishery collections such
last fiscal year amounted TO sl240os. The expendi-
tylre for the same period was $42594. The whole
expense OF the marine police amounts to $4,000.
The usual instructions under which the officers
commanding the Canadian cruisers have acted In
the past season differ somewhat from those issued
for their guidance during previous seasons.
In conformity with the expressed wish OF Her
Majestys government, fishing vessels belonging to
alton or seizure solely for their fishing within
the three-mie limits Several claims OF Canada,
I'm respect to definition or her various bays, by
heading boundary, and her right to exclude all
foreign vessels from her ports and harbors for bait
supplies, &C., incident to fishing, were put In
allowance.
