In few days another shipment will be
made to other streams in the State. The
above fish were obtained from spawn
ordered by the Commissioner in October
last. The spawn we're shipped from Nc
Cloud River, California, and were hatch
ed at Magnolia, North Carolina. In the
transfer and distribution not more than
fifty deaths occurred out of the 10000,
These fish will return in three years to
these same streams to spawn. In this
connection we would impress on the pub
lie the importance of observing the laws
made for the protection of fish. Fish
sluices should be made and kept open in
every dam across any streaHin the State.
To this end Colonel Butler is daily max
ing his appointments of fish wardens, of
whom there are to be two in each county
in the State. The Commissioner has also
ordered shipment of the spawn of the
land-locked salmon, to be hatched at
Morganton by Mr.. S. g. Worth, and they
will be ready for distribution at an early
day, provided the weather turns colder.
This warm weather is very unfavorable
to the distribution of fishes.
1t would greatly facilitate the work if
the railroads would furnish free passes to
the department for all fish messengers, as
they have done up to this year. 1t is to
be hoped that they will continue to ex-
tend this courtesy and liberality.
Col. Butler truly says that it is to be
regretted that war should have been
made upon the whales which recently
visited our coast. They may be the pio-
neers, as it were, of a large number of
these valuable fishes which, for some
reason, have left their native waters and
will become immigrants to our shores.
They are perfectly harmless and extreme
ly valuable, and there is no reason why
they should not be allowed to remain un-
molested and encouraged as far as posi-

those items which are deemed most urgent, and
embody them in special deficiency appropria-
tion.
The foreign affairs committee, which has for
some time past been engaged in theinvestigation
OF Representative AcklenS case to the exclusion
of all otner business, held general meeting to-
day, and agreed to report favorably the bill in
troduced in the House by Representative Cox
approprtating S., 500 to pay Louis P. Di CeSuola
the expenses of his consulate incurred by him

committee to whom was referred a petition
asking the repeal OF the 22d section of an act to
incorporate the Texas and Pacific Railroad
company, &C., and to declare the rights, fran
chinses and lands granted In said section to the
New Orleans, Baton Rouge and Vicksburg Rail-
road company forfeited, and that said section
be re-enacted In favor of the New Orleans Paci-
