One of our exchanges very truthfully
remarks "a newspaper and newspaper
editor that people don't talk about, and
sometimes abuse, are rather poor concerns.
The men aud business that an editor some
times feels it duty to defend, at risk of
making enemies of class, are often the very
first 10 show their ingratitude! The editor
who expects to receive much charity or
gratitude will soon find out his mistake; but
conscientiously thinks right, without regard
for trowns or smiles"

THE NEW OYSTER LAw.-By the limitation of
the oyster law OF the session OF 1880, which took
effect from the date OF its passage and was ap-
proved April 10, dredging ceased In the waters
OF Maryland April l, and though the licenses is
sued cover the period OF one year, the business
OF taking oysters with scoop, dredge or similar
apparatus may not be resumed until October l5
The penalty for violations OF the law to regu-
late dredging Is fine Of $50 to $500, or impriS-
ontlieno III 1ne mouse OF CORRECTION three months
to three years, on any person violating the law,
and on the vessel the penalty of $50 to $500 fine
AS taking oysters by any means whatever is
prohibited between April Is and September l,
the oyster catching business In Maryland wa
tiers is now wholly suspended. The penalty for
longing between April Is and September is a
line OF $50 to 5000, or imprisonment in the house
OF correction three months to three years. Some
further prohibitory ana penal provisions OF the
act are intended to prevent catching oysters on
Sunday or at night, or carrying them in the
April and September 1. The penalty for
violations OF these regulations is a fine OF $50
to $500, or confinement In the house of correc-
ton three months to three years, or forfeiture
Of the boat, vessel or canoe, In the discre-
ton OF the judge or justice trying the case.
The fourteenth section is In effect that during
the months OF May, June, July, August and
two weeks OF April no oyster tOngmen shall
catch more than five bushels OF oysters day,
and that these shall be solely for private con-
sumption or sale In the nelghborhood where
they have been caught, for replanting or bed
ding neighbortng waters belonging to the coun-
ty whence the oysterman derives his license
privileges. Tne failure or the state or Virginia
to approve the Potomac river oyster law this
year makes the Maryland act as regards the
Potomac, imperative for the present This law
proposes to prohibit oyster dredging In Poto-
mac water during the spawning season. 1t is
also designed to be check on Maryland dredg-
ers evading our license, under pretence of goin
to the free waters Of the Potomac and stoppin .
on the way for cargoes In the Chesapeake ba
and tributaries. There is nothing In the law,
however II ratified by Virginia to prohibit
Maryland oystermen from becoming Virginians,

Of their deSignS.-Bdu. Sun.
