TnE FISHERY AWARD,
What the London Timss has to Say ON
tthe Subject.

LONDON, November 9. The Times says when
we hear that public opinion in the United States
has been suddenly thrown into ferment by the
revival of the fishery question, and that Evsrts
has written two vigorous dispatches, the publics-
ton of which couple of weeks before the re.
cent elections has aroused patriotic feelings in
manner no doubt profitable to the republican par.
~, we can only wonder at the capacity for being
excited by small things which Americans possess.
Evarts' dispatches concerned what are apparently
rather antiquated subjects, fshermans quarrel
on the coast of Newfoundland in January last,
and payment of the Halifax award, which srbjtrs.
tors announced nearly fifteen months ago. What
ever may be the course of Newfoundland in the
dispute II can have no bearing upon the payment
of the Halifax award.

NEW MEXICO.
A State of Anarchy.

New YORK, November g. General Pope, in
his report concerning the Department Of Missouri
says Lincoln county in New Mexico, has, for
the last twelve months been in state Of anarchy
which is disgrace to the civilization Of the age.
United States military authorities are prohibited
by law from assisting to keep the peace in any
manner whatever, and are therefore compelled to
stand by and see houses containing women and
children attacked. and many persons, (soms Of
them undoubtedly innocent of any part in the
quarre) either killed or driven to seek refuge in
the military reservation at Fort Stanton. This
state of things demands the exercise of stronger
power lodged in the civil authorities of New Mex
leo, having no power to defend any one-men,
women or chidren-agsinst these outrages. The
general deems at least within his province to in
form those who have power of the condition Of
affairs, for which changes Of civil functionaries
are no remedy.
