REMARKABLE MORTALITY OF FIsH.-The
extraordinary phenomenon displayed on
the Florida coast, by which not only the
coast waters, but as far out as $50 miles
into the Gulf, have been rendered so poi
eonous as to kill the fish and create pes
tilentia, stencil in bays and harbors where
the floating carcasses collect, should receive
a thorough investigation. We have seen
no other explanation of the poisoning than
that it comes from inland waters-the
everglades prominently-and penetrates
the gulf in strata of dark reddish water,
which kills all the surface fish as soon as
it:reaches them, aud even far beyond any
apparent contact. This poisonous outflow
is stated TO have been nearly fatal to the
fish trade between Florida and Havana
the smacks finding it almost impossible to
select route in which the fish in their
wells are not destroyed by the poison.
The Key West Hey Gays: "The smack
George Storrs, Capt. Zeb Allen, attempted
to run to the westward in hopes of escap
ing the deadly waters. and when fifty miles
west of Tortugas, in 25 fathoms of water,
lost it's whole3fare of fab in a very short
time. He describes the poisoned water to
the south and west of him as far 80 he
could see." Fifty miles west of the Tortu
gas would make the locality indicated $50
miles west of Cape Florida, and not very
far from m i'd gulf.

THE NEW YEAR.

readers the old year was gathered IN
TO the shades of the past, and the al
ministration of the new incumbent
is now fairly inaugurated. Say what
we will, there comes with this change
a pleasant sadness that none Of us
are able TO shake off. Talk in as
matter-of. fact way as we please,
there is mysteriousl y associated with
this venerable relay Of old Father
Time a strange, sweet melancholy
without which we verify believe the
holidays would lose half their charm
Whose heart is not touched, as
with a magic wand, at the simple
words, "Happy New Year J" Into
whose mind comes there not troop
of pleasant memories as he hears
this little orison of welcome and
good cheer exchanged between
neighbor and friend, between chlId
and playmate ? Another year comes
apace. Another milestone has been
passed in the ceaseless journey of
our maternal planet. AS totterlng
age sinks into the darkness of the
grave, so does the old year leave US
to take its place in the gloomy realms
of the long ago. The past! What
solemnity attaches to its simple ut
terance! How tender the thoughts
it calls up
But turn we to the young and Wig
Orous future, and an essential change
comes over our musings, while the
picture brigbtens in every line of its
perspective. Schooled as we may
be in the experiences of the past,
we ever remain the merest tyros in
all that appertains to the future.
We would not remove cd land
marks; we would not introduce any
sanctimonious innovations; we would
not detract from the gayety so uni
versally felt; but the decadsnce OF
the retiring year and the coming OF
the new is more serious matter
than people are accustomed to sup
pose. During the thirteen lunations
just completed, our earth, with its
oceans, seas and continents, its cities
its wealth, pride and fashion, accom-.
panied by its meek handmade, the
moon, has finished another grand Cir
cult Of its orbit of more than five
hundred millions of miles; a distance
of which we can have no more jus,
conception than we can of the doings
Of eternity. And yet this is only a
year, day, in the heeting summer
of human life.
But let us speak of more tangible
things; let us come within the pale
Of mortal ken and research. Oul
libraries afford us elaborate accounts
of the great worlds career through
a long succession of ages; venerable
historians have detailed in all Ian
guages, for our entertainment ant
instruction, the rise, the glorious
noon and the downfall of Kingdoms
and empires; for our profit and well
being they have faithfully reviewed
the hopes, the strivings, the error
and ultimate failures of human am
bition in every walk of life. AL
these things we may CLEAN from th
voiceless page of history; but WIN
shall write for US just memoir o
the year SO recently closed? Wer
such labor possible, we opine tina
"change and decay" would constitute
the burden Of the cumbrous volume
from title page to appendix, "chang
and decay" would be the mournfu
refrain of all its voices and the ca
dencs of all its songs.

WASHINGTON, March 2S.-Interest in the
Oliver Cameron trial continues unabated,
and another large crowd was in attendance
this morning. Prof. IL. B. Hay, professor
Of penmanship, was called as an expert by
the defense.
He was shown the letters heretofore COM
mented upon, and expressed the opinion
that they were all forgeries except the Bris,
tow letter. Witness illustrated by means
of piece of chalk and blackboard how
the alleged forserics had been perpetrated,
and showed to the jury the distinguishing
features between genuine letters and those
which are claimed to be forgeries.
Witness being asked by Mr.. Peter if he
considered the letters as business epistles,
read one Of them through, and when he
came to that portion which said, "You will
be my wife, witness said: That certainly
means business" This created roars OF
laughter in which the Court joined.
Geo. Smuller, Esq, A. D. Hazen, Third
Assistant Postmaster General, and II. D..
Morton, Chief of Finance Division, Post
office Department. all testified as to Gamer
on's pennmanship.
At this point Judge Carter said that the
testimony on this one particular point was
simply cumulative, and in the opinion of
the Court it ought to be stopped. General
Butler said that the defense had many other
witnesses on the same subject, but they
would bow in Difference to the Court.
The defense then rested their case. Mr..
Peter, for plaintiff, then offered in evi-
dence the record of the Sample divorc ce
case, with the view, he stated, OF impeach.
ing the testimony of Mrs. Henriques, who
testified on Wednesday for the defense.
General Butler objected and an argument
ensued, pending which the Court took re-
