Forty-fye years ago 25,5O0,000 shad and
750, ZOO, 900 herring were caught annually in
the Potomac, and now 1t is estimated that
not over 10000 shad year are caught.
Professor Baird says we have destroyed
them by flsh-murder, and the weapons used
were gill-nets and other destructive con-
trivances. In spawning season the fish
have been mercilesslY pursued and given
not moments rest.
THE VIRGINIA GOLD CASES.
Assistant United States District Attorney
Hoxey, who is here, says that, in spite Of

sible, to a Judgment by the Government.
He says that the Acknowledgement and As
sistant Secretary French, OF the Treasury,

vor OF the erection OF apublic building at
Lynchburg by the United States Govern
ment. Dir. Casey Young informs your cor

American navy.
On Wednesday the House will consider
the Senate resolution for sine die adjourn
ment Of Congress on the 10th OF June.

| American captain has been forced To pay The
amount OF damage which had accrued 10 cargo OF
cotton from the natural accidents OF The be-
cause he had failed 10 dunnage said cargo between
decks, notwithstanding The fact that his cargo
! dunuaged according TO the accepted rule of dun
naging for Liverpool and other ports rs laid down
by Lloyds. The consiSnceS 1usiS,cd upon the cap
tain reimbursins them for tlc damage, and he was
forced to yield to their demands or 10 submit the
case to long and vexaiouS process In tile crfrIs.
While IL Is believed that the captain exercised the
usual and precaution In storing and protecting
the cargo. and that the damage accrued from no
neglect his part, considering the expenses anc
tedious methods of conducting Issues In the courts
of this country, the captain advised 10 submit
to what considered an inadmisslDc anu illegal

In order to prevent the recurrence OF such cases

not improved. Sugar was quiet; there was
some inquiry for low brown sorts; gro
cery-erades OF Porto Rico at auction
brought full rates; West Indian was
easier. except fine descriptions; more was
dong in refined. A rather large supply
of coffee was offered, which mostly solo
at last weeks prices. Saltpetre was inactive
and weaker. Tea was dull and unsettled

THE LONDON "TIMEs" ON THE AMERICAN
CoMMUNISTIC MOVEMENT.
LONDON, MAY 11.-Dispatches from Amer
lea reporting the apprehension OF COM
| munistic outbreak are attracting universal
attention. The general opinion is that it
| will be the worst for the Communists. The
| Times, in an editorial OH the subject, con-
clndes as follows:
| "If. as we will not anticipate, the United
States is destined to go through social crl-
sis OF this kind, we shall doubtless hear
again. as we used to hear fifteen years ago,
GOOD deal about effects OF Democratic in
situations. II, however, it is weakness OF
institutions like those OF America to give
tolerant encouragement 20 all sorts OF eX-
npriments in social and political organiZa-
tions. il is their strength to be able to sur
viye them, to profit by their success, and to
bn Ettle the worse for the future. The
fabric of American society IS SO strong
that il can sustain with little or no injury
shocks which would be fatal to weaker an q
more efete institutions. In the United
States freedom OF discussion is the salety-
valve through which Il great deal OF
superhuous political steam escapes. Inc
Americans have political sagacity enough TO
distinguish sharply between intemperate OF
even revolutionary speech ana reDellious
action. They have unbounded toleratlon
for the one, but have never shown any
great patience for tue other. We do not
Doubt that il they have to deal with any
dangerous form Of communism they VIII
deai with it effectively. The social fabric
OF the United States is as capable OF success
fully resisting such an attack as that OF any
State in the world"
