KILLING FISHES WITH DYNAM1rE.-The in
spectors of salmon fisheries for England and
Wales held two public inquiries at Newark and
Nottingham lately into tue alleged practice of
using d ynsmite for the purpose of taking fish.
The inquiries at both towns were numerously
attended, and some extraordinary evidence was
adduced. 1t was shown that for some years
past the Trent bad been infested by gangs of
men who made it practice under the cover of
night, or very early in the morning when no
persons wore about, to fling in four or five
charges of dynamite or cartridges, and few
minutes afterwards the surface of the water
was found covered with roach, daoe, cbub,
and Dream. The bones of the fish when cut
open were found to be pierced with small
holes the size of pinhead, and the fish
assumed yellow tint. Fish, it was stated
could easily be killed within twenty yards of
the spot where dynamite was thrown in
There was no lack of evidence of the uefarious
practice at both towns, and the persons iu-
terested in obtaining the iuq liries were re-
commended by the inspectors to get bill
drafted out aud then get their members to go
to the Home Secretary aud ask him to support
it. 1t was too late to do anything this ses-
sion, but they could move in the matter next
January. Meanwhile it is the duty of every
angler TO watch the river aud denounce all
